“Debra did a Great job with our Oscar, she made me feel at ease leaving him in her care at our house. Also leaving him for the 1st time after being diagnosed with diabetes, Debra did an awesome job with his injections, his routine and text updates and photos. Definitely will be asking for her again.”


“Angela is the ultimate dog whisperer! She is reliable and 100% committed to taking care of your pets. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Angela. I can’t thank you enough for easing my mind while I was away.”


“Kayla was the best dog sitter we could have asked for! She took care of our 18.5 yo dog with so much attention and understanding; Duke has some quirks and special needs, he was in such good hands with Kayla. We were in town for my brothers wedding, Kayla made our anxious dog felt at ease the moment he met her. She stayed with him for the whole time we were at wedding festivities, took him on walks in his stroller, hand fed him, took care of his medication, and we could tell Duke loved her!! We will definitely be asking Kayla to watch Duke next time we are in town. Thank you Kayla!!”

“I hired Jennifer to stay with my sweet pup over a weekend, hes a little older and he loves being at home. he gets anxious at doggy daycares. She was outstanding, timely, very kind, they played and Snuggled. She took such good care of him. You know when you return from a trip and their energy tells you how their feeling and he was at ease. I highly recommend!”


“Karen did an awesome job taking care of my 2 pups while I was away. From the moment we met, I could tell she was a true animal lover. She was super communicative throughout the whole process, sending me updates and pictures of my dogs. Not only did she take great care of my furry friends, but she also went above and beyond by taking care of my house while I was gone. Overall, I highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pet. Thanks again for everything!”


“Thomas did a wonderful job with our lab. We felt she was in good hands and he stayed overnight with Willow and worked from our home during day so she had him to keep her company.

Allie was neat, tidy, and left no footprint from her stay...she even stripped the bed she was sleeping in for us before she left. Allie is compassionate and caring. If available she will be our go to sitter anytime we are out of town!”

About: I love all animals. I always have been working in the field since high school. I participated in a veterinarian school program continued on from there after graduation . I have been a vet technician for sometime amongst many other services. I volunteered out of the country for several years during rescue missions in the Caribbean islands as well. Wherever I am, I volunteer at the Humane Society. I am also an excellent Groomer for standards poodles. I work and go to school from home. I have availability and I love to be of service.. I'm also available last minute. I have a large fenced in backyard and I will be home. I can meet all your requests. I have a large fenced in yard. if you prefer crate that’s optional . I'm open and available whatever you need. I prefer just to have one or two dogs at one time. And I give them the unconditional love and attention that they need. I enjoy taking care of animals. I have plenty of references just ask.

About: Hello, I have been taking cares of animals my whole life. I love them all and have had plenty of experience with many different species. Growing up I had chickens, ducks, rabbits, parakeets, donkeys, finches, horses, ferrets, chinchillas, button quail, a hedgehog, cats and dogs. I currently still have 3 dogs and a horse. I love them all dearly. :) I recently graduated from Tarheel Canine's 6 month program where I learned to train pet dogs and working dogs. I learned to teach them many things from as simple as sitting to advanced as detecting explosives and tracking. I am continuing to work with dogs every day and hope I can also help you take care of your pets. With my current schedule I work most evenings starting at 4pm and ending between 9-10pm. Sundays are usually busier with me working from 11am-9pm. That being said things do change and I always have days off but as a general schedule this is what it looks like. Thank you! I have had experience with all types of dogs from the friendlest pups you'll ever meet to your aggressive K9s. I can accommodate all and follow your instructions while caring for your fur babies. I currently only offer services outside of my home due to restrictions at my current residence.

“Susan did an exceptional job of taking care of our boy Prince. She sent photos and kept in touch with us throughout. He loves her (and he's a picky dog as far as who he let's pet and brush him). We would recommend using Susan for your pet sitting peace of mind!”
