“Emily is great! She was very attentive with our cats and they warmed up to her quickly. She loves animals and took great care of them while we were out of town. We def noticed a difference when we came home vs leaving them alone or just having a neighbor check on them. Would def recommend Emily and book her again!”


“Janie was great! She took great care of and loved on my two cats while I was on vacation. She kept me updated and I felt comfortable knowing they were well taken care of. Will definitely book with her again!”


“Susanna and her husband are the epitome of great pet sitters. We left very last minute for a family emergency and they both took on the job and did great at it also. Going above and beyond to make sure my house was cared for while we were gone when that wasn’t part of the job description. Definitely rebooking with her for our next family vacation. Thank you guys!”


“Kelly was a life saver for me and came on short notice to care for my pups when I had to be out of town. I'm so happy with the care she gave my pups, they were comfortable and happy when I got back. Thank you so much!!”


About: I have owned fur babies a majority of my life and love caring for them. For the 3 years, I volunteered as an in home foster for a local dog rescue and have experience with anything from the shy/timid personalities to the energetic playful personalities that these babies have. I have my own dogs who welcome other 4 legged visitors and enjoy running around the house and yard playing....but they also enjoy cuddling and nap time. I have a fenced area in my front yard where they can enjoy fresh air and lay in the sunshine. Your pets will be loved on and pampered while here. I have experience in giving medications as I have had to medicated some of the fosters that’s i have had. I do have crates available for those who need it. I work from home so they would not be left alone for long periods and would be taken outside frequently. I currently work from home so the fur babies would not be left for long periods. My daughter lives with me and helps care for the dogs. I have 2 small fenced areas in my yard but I do not leave any dog outside alone. I also have fences and crates available for inside for nights and when I have to run errands.


“Renee is the best! I have she has checked in my cat many times and I am always so pleased! She always answer quickly to requests and is able to help even when it is short notice. She sends pics of my cat during each visit so I can see how he is doing. I never worry when I’m out of town because I know my pet is being taken of as if he were her own. I will definitely be requesting Renee again!!”


About: I have been taking care of different types of dogs breeds since I was 5 years old. I have experience in following bathroom schedules and food schedules. I am also dedicated to being playful and affectionate to every dog. I am also experienced in taking care of senior dogs because I had to put medication in my childhood dog’s wet food before she passed away on February 12th. I hope you can trust me to take care of your furry friend(s) because they are our family 💕 (Updated 7/26/25) •I am currently an online full-time college student at ECU working towards my Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technology and I am currently working part time at a grocery store. •I graduated with my associate’s degree for Information Systems Support in 2024. •Other than my college workload, my part time job and taking care of my kitten, my fiancés cat, and my fiancés dad’s cat, I have pretty open availability in the mornings and afternoons. Due to my 2nd shift job, some days I will not be able to do anything past 3:00 PM Eastern Time. •Availability will be more limited my Fall semester due to having a higher load of classes. My fall semester starts on August 25th, 2025. For dogs: •I will provide a Q&A questionnaire so I will take knowledge on what is best for your dog.

About: I have been taking care of pets for 40 years. I have experience with both large and small breeds. I am patient and realize that each pet has it's own personality and needs. I also sit for dogs on deployment which is a pet sitting service for military pets in need while their parents are deployed. I absolutely enjoy being around pets and that shows in my interaction with them, I talk to them and play with them so they are not only getting the attention they need but also using up the extra energy they may have. I will take care of your pet as if it was my own because I realize that they are an integral part of your families and are like children. I work from home so I can be at your pets disposal at all times. I alternate every few hrs of playtime to a rest time so pets aren’t overly stimulated I have a fenced in yard so I allow them to just run off leash and interact with each other or with my two dogs .

“Thank you Ashleigh for caring for our animals. You helped us out in a pinch and when we got home our animals were happy and calm! Thank you for your flexibility and willingness to work around our needs!”


About: I have taken care of many types of dogs since I was a little kid. My family and friends have always had different breeds as a pet growing up. I also have two dogs of my own that I have been caring for, for six years now. Neighbors, friends and family could always rely on my to walk, feed and care for their animals. I will be a stay at home dog mom and will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. I will be available for pet care in the morning, afternoon and night on Monday through Friday. I have a fenced in dog park attached to my apartment, which has plenty of dogs to interact with. I also have two dogs of my own that are very friendly and playful ( bernadoodle and goldendoodle). I can also crate them if needed.

“María was the best sitter I could’ve ever asked for! She was so sweet and cared for my cat so well! I was so grateful for her that she was able to take care of her so last minute, but even more grateful for how much love she gave my cat while she was in her care! She sent me pics the entire weekend I was gone and was sooo accommodating in the drop off/pick up process, she made it so easy! When I dropped my cat off, she was scared to be in a new environment but María held her and loved on her till she knew she was comfortable, and I am eternally grateful for that! I felt so comfortable leaving my cat in her care and I will definitely only be booking with María in the future from now on! I highly recommend her for all of your pet care needs!”

On vacation, I was updated with pictures of my dog in action & on my return, I was absolutely amazed to see my dog calm, well cared for and happy. I recommend a 5 star rating to Kareen as providing a highly professional day care and boarding facility.”
