About: Hi friends! I am an energetic person who LOVES the outdoors and basically any kind of animal. I am blessed enough to be able to work for my husband for his concrete business so I am home (mostly) all day every day! I have 3 dogs myself; a Border Collie, GSP, and a mixed breed (half Great Pyrenees, half Australian Shepherd). They are my babies. I live on 19 acres that is all fenced but 18 of those acres are occupied for our 13 goats and 3 llamas! No worries though, we have a huge fenced in area directly beside/where our house sits just for dogs! We also have a doggie door from inside, leading to the outdoor area, so your dog will definitely get the exercise and outdoor time they deserve, as well as coming and going as they please! :) I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! Monday-Thursday with some weekends! We travel a lot over the weekends in the summer so weekends are limited but I will keep my weekend schedule updated We have a doggie door leading to the fenced in area for our dogs so they are able to come and go as they please. If you aren’t comfortable with the doggie door, I will make sure your pet does not use it and I will take them out for breaks frequently!
About: I have been caring for animal for around 10 years. I have dog, cat and house sat for many folks during that time. I love bringing peace of mind knowing your furry friends are safe and comfortable! I work part-time and have lots of flexibility to walk or play with your dog! I am open to discussing your needs and a schedule that works for both of us. I have three indoor cats. They’re great with dogs, and I am able to take dogs on walks around the greenway! It is my preference to come to you!

About: I have been looking after animals my entire life. I watched pets for neighbors growing up, walking, feeding and administering medicine. I have looked after dogs and cats for friends whenever they go out of town. I currently work weekday mornings, and two days a week I also work afternoons. My morning shifts are 6 hours, so I will have time to check on your fur babies early in the morning, and again around 2pm most days, or until 6pm the other two days. I’m free all day saturdays and sundays! I will follow whatever instructions you leave for me regarding how you’d like me to care for your pet while you’re away. I can administer medicine if necessary, and will give lots of love no matter what!
“Isabel was so good with my senior girl, Smokey! I had a sitter cancel last minute and Isabel stepped in to look after my girl. She sent plenty of pictures of Smokey having fun and rolling around outside. I felt at ease even when booking last minute. Thank you, Isabel!”

“Kayla kept us well informed about our 2 little fur babies and based on the photos they enjoyed having her watch after them. Although this was our first time using Kayla we will definitely request her again. Thank you Kayla for taking such good care of our little ones.”

“This was our first experience using Rover and it was perfect. Morgan was so nice and stopped by the day before our trip to meet the fluffs and learn their routine. We got photos and videos when she stopped by and was flexible with our schedule which we really appreciated. Thank you for picking up our last minute request on a holiday no less! We highly recommend Morgan.”

“Kristan was very thorough when learning and tending to our dogs needs and routines. She was right on time for every appointment. She’s friendly and communicates well. I definitely recommend her.”

About: I am home full time and have a lot of experience taking care of dogs. I have taken care of dogs since I was a teenager and have always watched pets for friends and family. Certified dog walker. I am recently retired and home full time. My daily scheduled is planned around the needs of the animals under my care. I take great care to ensure that every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need to stay healthy and happy. I have a large, smoke-free house with a fenced in yard with lots of grass and a large patio. I have 2 dogs to keep your fur babies company.

“I can’t recommend Alex enough!! He was communicative, kind, took so many great photos of our cats during every drop in visit and we appreciated the flexibility when our travel plans were delayed. He went above and beyond and anyone would be lucky to have him watching their fur babies 💖”

“Elizabeth was fantastic with my cat. She sent pictures daily, and from his kitty card reports it seemed she really tried to get to know him and spent their time together meeting both his physical and emotional needs. I'll definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I have taken care of dogs for around 4 years. Friends, family and roommates have relied on me to walk, feed and care for their animals. I work from home and travel at least once a month for my job. I create my own schedule so I can be very flexible I have a large yard for your dog to run around and play as well as one dog of my own who is very friendly. My neighborhood is very walkable, I’m within walking distance of Lake Louise Park & I’m close by to other dog-friendly parks as well.

About: Hello! My name is Lena. :) I am a pet sitter of many years, and a proud fur mama of a 16-year-old chihuahua named Cinnamon. I spent a few years in my early 20s as a full-time dog groomer, before moving to Asheville and pursuing other professional ventures. I've also worked in a kennel and doggie daycare, so am experienced and comfortable with dogs of all ages, energy levels, and dietary needs. I understand that every dog is different, and am happy to provide care for those who need to exert extra energy, those who are couch potatoes, and every fur baby in between. As an added bonus, I've also done master level reiki training, and have provided animal reiki quite a few times! I currently work part-time during the day, so will be around for morning + evening walks & feeding, as well as overnight for stays. I am happy to spend more time with your fur baby around these hours! For overnight stays, I do my best to accommodate to your pet’s normal routine with feeding/walks/etc. I will typically come by around dinner time, and stay until mid-late morning.
About: Loving animals so you can work and play stress free makes me happy! I'm a natural caregiver and have had dogs for over a decade and offered animal care for much longer. I enjoy making their day and yours brighter, while taking the burden off of you. I've had my current dog, the sweetest Weimaraner Husky rescue for 8 years. She's had a tough journey through glaucoma, but it's given me a ton of experience in administering eye drops, pills, special diets, and caring for blind dogs. I've also been an Herbalist for decades and am great at natural healthcare. I'm a regular hiker and it brings me joy to bring your sweet pet joy, especially on walks. I also have experience with farm animals. Just ask! I'm self-employed and have a super flexible schedule! I'm available most days and often on short notice. Just let me know what you need and I'll see what I can do I'm happy to play with your pets in your home, fenced yard, on a lead, and on walks. All of my dogs have been crate trained, so I am happy to help with that as well.

About: I have two inside rescue cats and two dogs. One dogs is a Rhodesian Ridgeback and weighs 100 pounds my other dog is a rescue mix and weighs 70 pounds. I love going for long walks to give my dogs plenty of exercise and some short runs. I have lots of experience with cats since I've been around them since I was five years old. I can play, groom (brush or trim claws) or just read a book with one on my lap. I've been taking care of dogs and cats for my close friends when they were away on vacation for many years. Taking care of animals gives me great joy. Playing fetch is always a fun activity for active dogs in the backyard.
