About: I’m a 20-year-old college athlete currently playing volleyball at Gardner-Webb University. I’ve been taking care of dogs for several years and have experience with breeds ranging from French Bulldogs to medium-sized mixed breeds. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with love and attention. I’m dependable, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with dogs—whether it’s playtime, a relaxing walk, or just hanging out together. As a student-athlete with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets—especially for walks, drop-ins, or weekend boarding. I’m usually available weekdays after 10 AM and most weekends. I make sure to plan around your pet’s needs and routines, so they always feel cared for and comfortable. I live in Statesville and offer pet care in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable and secure. I always prioritize safety and follow your instructions carefully to keep your pet happy and healthy. I’m trustworthy, dependable, and committed to treating your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.

About: I have pets at for many years. I also worked at a dog kennel so I'm used to all different shapes sizes and breeds. I enjoy training my own dog. I also worked on a farm so I have some farming knowledge as well. I enjoy being an active person and taking pets out. I want pet Care to be able to be my full-time completely integrated daily routine I take care of my own animals but I would like to be able to take care of other people's full time. I do however start my program of study sometime in August. In a client's home I would strive to keep the same schedule for the pets because I'm sure that they are already stressed out when their people leave. This being same food bathroom routine making sure they get playtime attention.

About: I have been helping care for dogs for the past several years and have worked with both large and small breeds. Family, friends, and people in my community have trusted me to feed, walk, and attend to their pets. I have experience in calming anxious pets and looking after/training puppies. I am very passionate about caring for dogs of all breeds and promise to show your pet the same love and attention I give my own! I am currently a student at the University of North Carolina Wilmington with only a couple classes each day, so I have plenty of free time to stop by to check in on your pet or take them for a walk! I am available every day of the week besides Tuesday’s and Thursday's. I respect the owner’s home and follow all security measures given when coming in for a dog visit. I also strictly adhere to the directions and routines provided for feeding, walking, or administering medication to ensure the pet is safe and comfortable.

About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and understand that pets are family. As a nanny for over 15 years, caring for others has always been my passion, and I bring that same patience, responsibility, and compassion to every pet I care for. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities and will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, exercised, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or simply providing companionship, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, trustworthy, detail-oriented, and committed to giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My days are structured, active, and centered around providing dependable care. I have a flexible schedule on Thursdays, Fridays and the weekends. I make it a priority to give every pet the love, attention, and exercise they deserve. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply someone to keep them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to help them feel comfortable in their own home. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and in good hands. I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in their familiar environment, so I focus on providing loving, dependable care in your home. I carefully follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I also respect your home, keep everything clean and secure, and provide regular updates with photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring hands.

About: Dogs have been there my whole life and taking care of them brings me joy! I am very patient, loving and attentive to their needs. I am working a part-time job, I choose my hours so I have a flexible schedule for dependable and reliable pet care throughout the week. My yard has no fence which is perfect for trained dogs to not run away. I stay outside with them and provide attentive fun pet care.

About: I can provide dog walking services or visits for your fur babes! I have a fully fenced in privacy back yard with lots of room to explore! I am located conveniently in the downtown area of Statesville right of the I-77 and I-40 exchange. I have been a dog owner and lover since childhood and currently have two of my own that are a staple in our family! I look forward to offering a fun, safe, stress-free and exciting experience for your furry family member. Please let me know of any specific dietary restrictions your pet might have so that I am able to accommodate. Thanks so much!

About: I LOVE animals. I was raised around animals from babies to adults so I am familiar with the processes from raising a baby to an elderly animal (cats, dogs, cows, horses, etc.) I have also volunteered at several animal shelters. I am currently raising two sweet pups of my own, Luna and Ranger. I have trained all of my animals and I’m extremely patient. I also know ASL, if needed to communicate. I am a full-time interpreter, but working with animals calms my stress. I understand situations come up, so I am extremely flexible. The world is a better place because of the animals in it, so it is important to me that they are treated as such. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!

“Melanie is wonderful with the animals. She is kind, caring and very flexible in meeting their needs. My situation is a little complex at the moment and Melanie put us all at ease to help look after all the animals at a last minute request. Highly recommend!”

About: I stand out through my dedication to delivering unparalleled care tailored to the unique needs of every dog. With specialized expertise in training puppies and providing attentive senior care, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior and health. I prioritize safety, comfort, and personalized attention, ensuring each furry client receives nurturing and enriching experiences. My commitment to fostering strong bonds and creating positive, memorable interactions sets me apart as a compassionate and trusted caregiver at Rover. I am retired and looking for walking activities to keep me busy with the things I enjoy the most, PETS!! I love being around them as much as possible. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their comfort, well-being, and adherence to any specific routines or instructions provided by the owner. Here’s how I approach different pet care services: Dog Sitting: Daily Routine: I maintain the dog's regular feeding schedule, ensuring they have access to fresh water at all times. Exercise and Play: I engage the dog in activities they enjoy, such as walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep them active and happy. Comfort: I provide cozy resting areas and ensure the environment is safe and secure. Medication: If required, I administer medications according to the owner's instructions. Dog Walking: Safety First: Before the walk, I check equipment like leashes and harnesses to ensure they are secure. Exploration: I take dogs on stimulating walks in safe areas, allowing them to explore and enjoy their surroundings. Hydration: I bring water for hydration, especially during warmer weather. Positive Reinforcement: I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior during walks.

About: I've taken care of everything from snakes to guinea pigs to dogs to horses. Amphibians as well. I have worked in boarding for over 4 years, and I have been a vet assistant for one. I started off volunteering at the Charlotte Nature Museum when I was 15. I have interned at Carolina Raptor Center. I love all animals in any shape or size. I am also certified in Knowing Dogs 101 and 201, which covers recognizing individual and pack behavior. (ex. when your dog is in a doggy daycare and is playing with other pups.) I have two furbabies of my own, a guinea pig named Tatiana, and a spoiled rotten but adorable mutt named Sora. I promise hou that I will love your pets too! I have an open schedule for looking after your pet. I am more than happy to do morning and mid-day walks, visits, and feedings. I am unable to do late-night visits at this time. (After 8pm) I hold myself to a very high standard for looking after your pet. I will treat your pet and your home with the utmost respect. If they are on meds, then I will make sure that they get them on time and I can also give insulin if a pet is a diabetic.

About: For the Love of Dogs Rescue has been taking care of dogs, cats, other assorted animals for 29 years. I train dogs to be Service and Assistance dogs for our veterans and special needs families in our local community. I love all Animals, especially Dogs and Horses. I personally have German Shepherds. I have yet to meet an animal that did not either take a liking to me instantly or come to trust me over time. Some are that broke and have been failed so horribly, my heart weeps for them. I ONLY use fear-free, marker-based positive reinforcement training methods. I am a disabled veteran myself and working with dogs is a labor of love for me. I am professional, polite, patient, and understanding. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) or other animals and making new friends. Because of COVID and being a disabled vet, I am currently only training dogs, and Horses on special occasions. COVID has made our rescue efforts difficult as my rescue runs on a foster home model. What that means for you is that I have plenty of time to care for your dog(s) and other animals. I do have personal worship time on Sunday mornings and Tuesday evenings. These can be done anywhere as we are utilizing zoom for our meetings. In your home, I will endeavor to keep their normal routine except adding playtime if it's appropriate for your dog(s), cat or other animals. I am flexible and will always have your animal's best interest at heart. We may even learn a thing or two together. If at my home, your dog will be inside my home with our family. I have a fenced-in yard for outside play and necessities. I have a doggie door (which I can train your dog to use, or we can close it off and utilize your current method for outside necessities). I can crate in XL crates if preferred or medically necessary. Every dog and home is different. When house sitting/dog or animal sitting, I will follow your instructions. If any of these happen to be in opposition to my methods, I will discuss them with you upfront so that we are both in agreement. I love all animals, especially our canine companions of this world. I would be honored to be considered as your dog nanny, caregiver , house sitter, Animal attendant or whatever name you are comfortable with for me to care for your animals while you are away. Feel free to contact me and schedule a meet and greet. I look forward to meeting you and your animal family members. Humans may think my humor is off beat but the animals seem to love it. My rescue efforts have been impacted due to COVID, so I have a lot of extra time to spend focusing on the needs of other animals by offering Animal Nanny services, house sitting, animal sitting, dog walking, horse exercising, drop in visits to ensure fresh food and water is available, maintaince medications are administered, potty breaks are given, etc. Anything that is needed on a drop by visit basis. I offer an exceptional Dog Nanny service or Animal Nanny if you prefer. I strive to provide your furry companions with so much love and attention that they hardly notice that you are away. I love taking client dogs to the "DogWorld dog park" in Kannapolis, NC. DogWorld is a one-of-a-kind dog park!! The 17-acre property features an Olympic size swimming pool, two water slides, an 18-hole obstacle course, natural pond, rolling hills, a beautiful creek, and 12+ acres of fenced-in play space!! It also has a Doggie Concession stand for a Pup Cone (dog appropriate version of ice cream cones) Please visit Dogworld dog park on the web for more details. They offer single day passes, monthly passes and yearly memberships at very reasonable prices. The screening process is easy (every dog is evaluated for their temprement, play style and social skills and assigned a color coded collar band). There are monitors throughout the park to help ensure fun, safe play for everyone. the rest is pure FUN for the dogs. I can also help to get the 1st time evaluation completed if your schedule needs a little help. The park is open year round excluding some holidays. Please refer to their web page for complete details. I treat every animal with kindness, love, compassion and understanding. My approach is always based in science and experience. I have cared for just about every type of dog in a myriad of situations, good and bad. Typically the dogs that already have a loving home are pretty easy to figure out. Their basic needs are usually met so any issues going on are not too hard to figure out. I treat every dog as if it were my own. I am a dog lover and truly enjoy watching, caring for and finding ways to enrich their lives and making things easier for them while their family members are away. It can be stressful on animals when their family members are away. Some notice a 5 minute absence, other maybe a day or so, but all miss their normal routine. I try to provide activities, learning, playing, cuddling, grooming, etc. In an effort to help the animals relax, enjoy their time and make your absence less stressful for your animal. I am retired and most of my extra time involves animals and their care. I am a grandmother and think of the animals much the same as children (just the four legged and furry variety.) I have a fenced in yard with doggie door access. I can teach your dog to use the door at their convenience or I can set structured potty breaks depending on your preferences. I will always try to maintain as much of your normal activities to help minimize your absence and the changes.

About: Have ran a small farm before. Many dogs and cats and goats chickens. Enjoy and find it peaceful to be around animals of all types I currently have Tuesday through Friday off and would like to make some extra money on my own schedule time Unavailable Saturday through Monday. As I work my full time job I can easily crate and walk your pet when needed and watch over it. When outside they will be on a lease and with me at all times

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. Now that I’m older I’ve had plenty experience caring for them whether that be pet sitting for friends and family or in my line of work. Something that will set me apart from other sitters you may come across is my experience working at a kennel. This includes specifically working with service dogs, boarding pets, and k9 working. I’ve worked with a variety of dog breeds, ages and behaviors, meaning I can cater to whatever your pets needs :) Since I work as a kennel technician, being with and caring for animals is practically second nature to me. Being able to pet sit would be right up my alley and perfect for the experience I have. Your pet is 100% guaranteed to get the best care I can provide. To list a few this includes always having fresh water, appropriate exercise, meals according to their routine, cleaning up any messes, administering any medication and of course lots of attention. Pet behavior will also be monitored and you will receive ample updates on anything and everything going on with your fur baby.

About: I have worked in the veterinary industry for 10+ years, and have personal experience caring for senior pets, puppies/kittens, birds, and even rats and other small mammals. I would be honored to watch your pet while you have to be away. There are only very few irrational requests - it is my goal to be accommodating to what your pet is used to! Currently, pet care is my sole source of income and caring for, walking, feeding, bathing, snuggling, and playing with your pets is my full-time job! I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I have a dog and 3 cats who are my world - it is hard to entrust them with anyone else and I imagine this is true for you as well. I hope to earn both the trust and respect of both you and your pets!

“Justin is great to work with! He is very communicative about our pup each day! Also appreciate the extra effort he puts in with our pup who is anxious and adjusting to our new home currently! Would absolutely recommend him!”
