“I was a bit nervous about using a sitter service for the first time. But after just one day, seeing the pure joy on Shelby's face when I picked her up made it all worth it! She was so tired when we got home, which was evidence of how much fun she had. Lori is wonderful; she keeps me updated with sweet texts, pictures, and videos throughout the day! I will definitely be using Rover AND Lori again!!”
About: Hello! My name is Heather. I'm a 28 year old Boone local. I have 10 years of paid experience as a pet sitter. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, birds, rabbits, hedgehogs, turtles, horses, cattle, chickens, and ducks through ownership over the years. I have professional experience working at a dog kennel for 5 years. I have worked with special needs animals including diabetic, handicapped and elderly as well as newborn animals. I have a home with 40 acres of land so I can offer boarding services for most animals and provide plenty of interesting hiking if your pet stays with me. I'm home three times during the day (morning, lunch and evening). That gives me plenty of time to provide potty breaks often during the week. I offer in home pet care and boarding. For clients wanting in home care, I can stop by up to three times a day and I can occasionally offer overnight care. For those wanting to board, I provide a safe environment with lots of room. I have house with a large amount of land and safe places to walk and play. I have room and experience with safely isolating your pet if there are issues with aggression or if you aren't comfortable with your pet being around other pets. Potty breaks are provided every 3-4 hours for dogs and longer walks or play at least once a day
About: I have owned dogs from a very young age on and I worked at a dog kennel for 5 years! I have experience in potty training, training puppies, oral medication, and more! I love dogs of all shapes and sizes and have owned both small and large dogs. I currently work from home M-F 9:30-5:30 pm (as well as most Saturday’s)! I am able to give your pet the attention required so we can have the best stay together! Your pet does not need to be crate trained, but I do ask that they are okay in a home for max of 2-3 hours if I need to leave in the evening for errands. If you have a puppy or special requirements, just let me know ahead of time!🩷 I live in a townhome directly next to our dog park! I am able to take your pet on daily walks as well as play with them to get out any energy. I can exercise your dog as much or as little as requested! I do have one dog in the home, Haven, who does amazing with all dogs. If you have a dog with aggressive tendencies, I do ask we discuss it before booking! I want to ensure my dog’s safety as well as yours!
About: I have always had a dog since the age of 5. I have trained and taken care of dogs basically my whole life! However, I don’t train, just have done the basics with mine :) I’m here to take care of your pet, and provide ease of mind so you can enjoy whatever you may be doing! I am currently a stay at home mom! I have a small, Maltese, male dog myself, so taking care of a pet is part of our routine! We go on walks and can allow for your pet to lounge and be lazy if needed too! My schedule is flexible, however there may be times I am gone for 2-4 hours at a time. My dog is very easy and flexible, so if yours is too, this is the perfect place! We do not have a fence, but we have a place where we can go on walks in our neighborhood. It’s very dog friendly! If your dog needs to be crated, they can be crated here. My dog is crated at times, but can also stay out, so if yours is trained, I am happy to let them stay out in the house. I can feed your pet at anytime, and provide multiple walks during the day depending on the need. I have a lazy dog, who enjoys sleeping most of the day, so I am able to meet your dogs varied needs!
“Thank you so much for an amazing day! Pork chop has missed being around others, and I can tell he really enjoyed being a part of your pack (both human and canine)! We will definitely book with you again!”
About: Hi! My name is Chesnut. I’m kind and compassionate and will love caring for your furry buddy. I have grown up taking care of my family’s dogs and have two of my own for the last five years. P.s. If you have a really active dog, I love taking dogs on runs or hikes or long walks. I work from home so available all week long. On weekends my husband and I tend to go hiking, so if the dogs enjoy hikes we will take them, but if not then we can adjust our schedules. We have an unfenced yard for potty breaks (leashed), but will take the dogs to the local dog park for exercise or on leashed walks/hikes.
“We greatly appreciated that Stewart and Linda greeted us outside their house wearing masks when we dropped off Teddy. They are very COVID conscious. We rarely leave Teddy with a sitter as he is our constant companion. We wanted to take a day trip and pets were not allowed. We left Teddy with Stewart and when we picked him up we could tell he had a wonderful time. Stewart had taken him on lots of walks during the day, played with Teddy's favorite toys, and Teddy was returned to us very content and happy. Stewart only takes one pet at a time so Teddy received a lot of attention. If you are looking for a safe, loving place to leave your precious pup, I do not think you could find anyone better than Stewart. We would definitely use him again.”
“Bethany took wonderful care of Rex for the day in her home. She is really communicative and we’ll definitely book more in home visits with her. If you are in the Foscoe, Banner Elk area she is very close, and is open to picking your dog up for a modest fee”

Heather M.
“Heather has been our family’s reliable pet caregiver for over 15 years. We have multiple large dogs, rabbits, hedgehogs, and other lovable critters. Due to the large dogs and various demands of our other pets it was difficult to find a pet sitter who felt capable and comfortable with all the animals and their care routine. Heather is always great with them and very understanding of their needs and schedule. We require at least 3 visits a day for our dogs who take medication. Heather is aware and accommodating of this without any issue. I know I may always rely on Heather whether it is for a few visits or several days of care. The dogs love her, and I know she is a loving dog mom herself, it shows in the compassionate way she treats us and our pets.”

“5 stars as she treated Lainey like one of her own.”
Chesnut S.
“Chesnut is a very reliable, conscientious young lady who loves animals but has not been in a position to have one of her own. She would be attentive to your pet's needs and go above and beyond what you ask of her in caring for your pet. She is someone you can depend on to do what you need her to do and to love on your pet in your absence. She has cared for her brother's dog on several occasions and has had cats of her own when she lived at home. She will notice if something is different about your pet, especially if she has had time to get to know the animal, and will let you know if she thinks something is not "right". I'd trust Chesnut with a pet.”
