“Ashlee was wonderful, came when we requested and gave lots of love and attention to our fur babies. She went above and beyond her call of duty to clean up after cats had accidents. We look forward to booking her in the future!”
2. Thomas W.

4. Dani S.
“I have been very fortunate to have had Dani as a pet sitter. She and Portia hit it of immediately and Dani is happy to give Portia lots of snuggles in addition to her regular care. Highly recommended.”
5. Susan E.
“Having just recently moved to the area, we didn’t have a local friend to take care of our cat, Steve, and we were initially a bit nervous about using someone we didn’t know. However, Susan was FANTASTIC! She came to meet us and our cat before our trip, which put us totally at ease since she was so friendly and kind to Steve and didn’t bat an eye at his feeding instructions. She showed up on time each day and sent us a nice visit recap and some funny action pictures of her playing with him. Would 100% recommend her to anyone.”
6. Amanda H.
“Amanda is amazing! Our 18 year old furbaby does not take to many people outside of the family... But she had really bonded with Amanda from the beginning!! Definitely gives me a peace of mind while away! Thank you so much, Amanda, Savannah will see you next time!!”
7. James W.
“James was great with the cats. Very prompt and efficient and both cats seemed to do very well. We will definitely use James again!”
8. Sarah N.
“Sarah watched my cat and was excellent with all aspects of what it takes to watch a cat and more. Sarah was very strong at communication in a time where there were some home and weather issues and pertinent information was exchange. I certainly trust and would call on Sarah again in the future to watch my cat!”
9. Grace B.
“Grace is wonderful! She has watched our dog 3 separate times in the last 6 months, and I know every time our pup is in great hands. She is very communicative- sending adorable photos of our Zoe, updates on anything that may seem out of the normal, and just good generalized contact. When we return our house is always tidy which is a pleasant surprise. I would highly recommend Grace for all your pet sitting needs, she is everything you would want in a pet sitter- responsible, responsive, flexible and a genuine animal lover. She is our first choice for taking care of Zoe and we will definitely be using her in the future.”
10. Renee C.
“Renee was so awesome!!! Will utilize her again! She was great with both pets.”
11. Leslie A.
“Our dogs are best friends and they take good care of my Sophie whenever I leave town! They love to go on walks together. We love Leslie!”
12. Madeline M.
“Madeline took great care of both Charlotte and my home!”
13. Kasidy M.
“We always get so nervous leaving our sweet boy for long periods of time, Kasidy was wonderful in sending pictures and updates that helped put us at ease. She also clearly vocalized her affection for our boy that helped assure he was in good hands with someone who loved spending time with him!”
14. Socorro T.
“Soco has helped walk my dogs for years. She started helping me with my first dog Holly- who was a wonderful but challenging dog. Holly required special attention because she was abused and could be aggressive towards both humans and other dogs. Soco handled her with ease which as an owner provided such immense relief. After Holly passed away I got another dog who was also a rescue and is extremely high energy. Again, Soco handles here with ease. She’s reliable, always goes above and beyond and truly is the best dog walker I’ve found locally! Would highly recommend her if you are in need of dog walker/sitter.”
15. Kari M.
“This is the best pet sitter ever!!! Not only is she so sweet to the fur babies, she treats them just like they are her own!! 10/10 recommend!!!”
16. Honey T.
About: I absolutely love animals. I have been rescuing, rehabbing, walking, feeding, bathing and loving pets since as far back as I can remember. I do not have special pet training skills. I do have plenty of experience, common sense, a great feeling of responsibility for a pet in my care and I am immensely reliable. Some helpful traits that I offer are patience and calmness. Often it takes more than one visit for pets to feel safe and comfortable. By remaining calm, consistent and patient, stress will be reduced for you and your pet. I'll lean heavily on your recommendations, because you know best. I'll certainly respect any guidelines, rules or request. Previously I worked as a Register Nurse. 10 years ago, I decided to start a small business and be a homeschool Mom. I don’t work in healthcare any longer. I have given IV fluids to dogs on special occasions and if needed would be perfectly comfortable administering fluids in your home. Recently, I took care of a very sick senior dog. She required IV fluids daily. We managed to hydrate her and keep her very comfortable in the process. I have a good trick for keeping them calm while receiving fluids. I also have experience taking care of a dog with mild epilepsy. I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to bend and realign as needed. My core daily routine doesn't disrupt a typical pet schedule. I have some flexibility on short notice, but am not always available immediately. The closer to Columbus and Tryon, the better the chances I can come on short notice (5 hours notice or less). If your pet boards at my home: I have a large fenced backyard which is divided in half because I separate pets as needed when they have outside time. The yard is checked often for anything that could pose a risk to our pets and yours. There is a large canvas canopy to offer shade as well as a thick tree canopy. There are raised cots to sunbathe on. Toys are literally everywhere and they are washed often due to a bit of mud in an area after rain. There are several water bowls that get fresh water each time we go out. I also have the ability to crate if needed. I am at home most of the time and will be available to care for any pet needs.
17. Shane K.
“Just the nicest guy ever ... you'll have peace if mind knowing your pet kid is well looked after and loved up. Shane is very good at communicating and accommodating to your pets needs and requests. We highly recommend his services; he's Aces in our book and we will most definitely book him again* Diane, Johan and Moochie Delsol - 07/2024”
18. KayLynn A.
“KayLynn is the first we ask to help out with my cattle dog/Aussie mix. She is reliable, caring and kind, and loves on my sweet baby while I’m gone. I’m so glad I can trust her to take care of him- she has made my life easier time and time again. SO grateful!! Not to mention my doggie loves her- and he doesn’t love others easily.”
19. Autumn C.
About: I am available for pet-sitting and dog-walking in the Rutherford County Area! I grew up on a small farm, and lived with dogs and cats all my life. I currently am the pet parent to one spoiled Netherland Dwarf rabbit named Patchouli, and I help my parents care for their three dogs, three cats, and two goats. In the past, I have worked at a doggy daycare/kennel, a pet vaccination clinic, and have volunteered at two veterinary clinics and a wildlife rehabilitation center. I currently work a full time job at a 24-hour operation dog boarding facility; I generally work five days a week, and days/shifts vary quite a lot. I work both weekdays and weekends, and my shifts can vary from morning, midday, and evening shifts of 8 hours. I can always plan meal times and other pet care in accordance to whatever shifts I'm working. I am very attentive to pets' body language and signals. I am very gentle with pets and consistently allow them time to get to know me and feel comfortable. I will request information about each pet's comfortablity with other humans, pets, and separation from owners, and plan accordingly.
20. Andrew F.
“One of Andrew's greatest passions is his love for animals. He has a warm and gentle nature that allows animals to immediately trust him. He is kind, reliable and caring. The moment you meet Andrew you will sense his compassionate genuineness. And you will have complete confidence that your pets are in good hands. I would trust Andrew with the care of any animal. He's simply wonderful!”
