“Daniella did such a great job taking care of our cat while we were away for 5 days. She was very quick to respond to any messages and she was flexible and accommodating when I reached out last minute with a couple of extra requests. I’m so happy we found her and I would love to have her come watch our cat again!”
“Peyton did a great job dropping off to feed and entertain my 2 cats while I was gone. My place was kept clean and he spent the full 30 minutes with them at each visit.”
“Alyssa did an excellent job looking after my cat! Her communication was great and she sent many pictures and updates. I definitely recommend Alyssa to others looking for sitters”
“Grace was absolutely wonderful with my shy boy! He took to her immediately and really enjoyed having her company while I was out of town. Grace has the magic touch with cranky older cats! She also took great care to keep the space clean and tidy. I would absolutely recommend Grace and will definitely hire her again when we travel!”
About: I grew up loving and caring for dogs since my first pup, Madison, when I was 14. I’m the proud human to my current dog, Callie, who is a 4 year old cockapoo. I often watch my friend’s dogs and work from home so I’m always around and able to go on multiple walks a day. I work from home in west Charlotte so your pup won’t be left alone. I’m also able to take multiple walks a day :) I have a large, shaded, fenced-in yard with plenty of room to play. My neighborhood has sidewalks and a park nearby (currently being updated but reopening soon)
“Burgess was great! She was very friendly when we had our meet & greet and was great meeting my cats (it’s hard to find people who are good with cats). Due to one of my cats being on medication, she was great at being consistent with her drop-ins and my boys looked healthy and happy when I got home after being gone for 2 weeks. I’d definitely have Burgess take care of my boys again!”
“Katelyn was fantastic with Maddison! I am thankful for her great care and time she spent with her! I look forward to having her watch Maddie for any future trips.”
“Lauryn is absolutely amazing!!!! And I think that’s an understatement!!! First of all, I found her on kind of short notice..and I am so incredibly grateful that she confirmed the booking right away! This was her first time taking care of Charlie and Cleo, and I can tell they fell in love with her (and vice versa) 🥹 we were gone for the longest time away from our babies (around 5 days!), but Lauryn took extra special care of them and was so patient. She was very communicative, and I absolutely loved the photos/videos she sent us! I would 1000% book Lauryn again - and highly, highly recommend her!”
“My little girl was taken care of and got to stretch her legs mid day! Definitely gave me so much peace of mind to have such a kind hearted person care for my best friend.”
“Serefina was wonderful with our 3 cats! They’re typically very shy around new people but she got them to come out on the first day and play. She sent lots of pics and we felt so happy that our cats loved her. Highly recommend for any your pet sitting needs!”
“Alicia is an amazing pet sitter. She took care of my three kittens including my senior cat that is sick and we couldn't be more grateful for all of her help! We have a few special requests for him that can be a lot to ask and she did them without any issues! We will most definitely keep booking with her. I 100% recommend her service”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I grew up in a home where we regularly rescued dogs, so I learned from a young age how to care for animals with patience, love, and responsibility. Taking care of our pets was always a priority, and I treat every dog as if they were part of my own family I work full time, but my schedule is very flexible in the mornings and evenings, which allows me to dedicate quality time to caring for your dog. I’m able to provide walks, feeding, playtime, and attention before and after work to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for. I’m committed to being reliable and making sure your dog’s routine and needs are fully met. When caring for dogs in their own home, I make sure to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention to keep them happy while you’re away. I also make sure the home stays clean and that your dog feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their familiar environment.
About: I'm Kaili and I’m looking for some wagging tails to fill my schedule! I'm a huge dog lover and always have been - with over 15 years experience I'm able to give specialty care to all dogs of varying breeds and personalities. Depending on you and your doggo’s preferences, we can go for long walks or take it easy and lounge in the grass. I'm available for walks, potty-breaks, excercise/play time and/or over night stays! I have experience with overly timid or anxious pups that require patience and gentle attention. As well as extensive care with senior dogs, who also require extra attention in their old age. I’d love to get to know you and your dog and help keep them company in anyway needed! I have a dog of my own and often care for my sister’s dog as well so I’m very well versed and have a schedule down pat. I can be home on the weekends for dog sitting and ample walks around the neighborhood. I have an unfenced grassy area outside my home and live in a neighborhood where I walk my own dog all the time. It’s pretty quiet and low traffic, but there’s also the greenway nearby for a longer / more stimulating environment.
“Stephen was great at taking care of our cat. Very communicative, consistent, and reliable. Would definitely ask for his help again! We had peace of mind while we were away for several days. Stephen gave detailed updates and pictures after each visit.”
“Bailey is always a wonderful sitter to our cat Mama! She gives her love, treats and always sends us lots of pictures. Highly recommend booking for your pet services!”

Haley was soo sweet to Carter! She came early, sent me photos from her visit, and even sent me a message before she left!! Carter was so happy and well taken care of when I got home from work. I would definitely trust her with any of my pets and hope to book her again soon!!
I could not have asked for a better person to watch my dogs. I have never had a person outside the family to look after them, nor have I given a person access to my home. I recommend Ruben 100% and will gladly call on him again. My dogs took to him on his first visit that assured me I made the best decision. Thank you so much Ruben, it meant so much to me that you made my dogs and I very comfortable.
We had a great experience using Rover, and Amanda was fantastic! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of our dog. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was in good hands. We would absolutely book with Amanda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Grace went above and beyond in caring for our (sometimes spicy) senior kitty, Hope. She came twice a day, was totally on top of everything, and kindly helped clean up when our cats stomach was getting upset (happens when we’re away). She also really understood how to work with our testy girl, to give her space, and let her come to you. We’re very grateful to have found such kind sitter nearby!
Payton did an incredible job stopping by our apartment and making sure our dog was taken care of for 3 days! He took Loki on walks, fed him, and gave him treats. He also made sure to send plenty of photos of our dog while he was on his visit. Will definitely be booking with him in the future!
Rosie was absolutely amazing! She did drop-in visits for my cat while I was on vacation and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was reliable, caring, and clearly has a natural way with animals. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. She kept me updated and made the whole experience stress-free. I would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter
Anne was absolutely incredible! From the get go she was flexible with meeting up to go over everything about food, water, entry to the building, etc to ensure that my cats were set up and ready to leave for the trip. While I was gone she would show up and play with my cats every day. She would feed them treats, play with their favorite toys, and even brought them little surprises! Most importantly though she took the BEST photos of my cats that I was able to enjoy while I was away. The next time I go on a trip I will definitely be booking with Anne again and I would recommend everyone else do the same.
Kim is truly wonderful! She's incredibly trustworthy, always responds promptly, and is so flexible. I really appreciate how she took such good care of Rylie during her drop-in visits for two months while my husband was away. She's definitely Rylie's favorite go-to person! 💕
Ariane was great! We needed to leave our dogs in an Airbnb so we could go to a drs appt and it was going to be all day. She went twice and did exactly what we asked even wiping dogs paws off after coming in from the rain. If we need someone again in this area we would definitely use her again.
