About: I have always been a pup enthusiast, I grew up with a huge black lab, Luke. He was the best dog ever, I’d love to take him for walks and play! As an adult I have many dog friends, my sister has the most beautiful pit bull Sadie. I’ll go to her house when I’m in town and take the dog out, Sadie loves when I’m around!! My boyfriend’s parents have two massive Great Danes, we walk them and take care of them all the time. I just have a huge heart for all of our four legged friends. I’ve never met a dog that didn’t like me. I’m extremely responsible and cautious while walking and playing. I’m a bartender so most days I’m free and would love to spend the off time walking and caring for animals. Exercise for both of us. I am extremely responsible and reliable. Always courteous and respectful. I would care for any animal as if it were my own, and treat them and my surroundings with the upmost respect.

About: I’m a licensed veterinary nurse that has been in the profession for over 20 years. I have retired from veterinary nursing but would love to help you out with your animals.

I am on the board of directors for a veterinary hospital. I am very reliable and will stay in touch with updates on the care of your pets. It is just me, my husband and our small dogs. Our children are grown. I am available 7 days a week and love animals. I have the expertise and flexibility needed to be a very dependent person.

It doesn't matter if they are in your home or mine, your pet will be in great hands.

“Sara was wonderful to work with. We visited the Keys on vacation and needed help with walking our dog when we went on various excursions. Sara was very flexible with our schedule which was really helpful. She was very responsive and kept us updated after each visit. Sara is top notch!”

About: Hi there! My name is Taylor, and I recently graduated from UNC Chapel Hill with a degree in Biology. I’ve been pet sitting for over 8 years, starting back in high school, and I absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds! I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and training levels—including dogs, cats, and more. I am currently a summer intern at the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, where I care for sea turtles on a daily basis. While I’m unable to provide in-home boarding, I offer drop-in visits and overnight stays in your home to keep your pets comfortable in their own environment. I'm based in Surf City but happy to travel to nearby areas. I'd love the opportunity to meet your furry (or scaly!) loved ones. Looking forward to connecting with you soon! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available for in-home stays or drop-in visits and can provide walks and care before work (around 7 AM), during lunch (around noon), and after work (around 4 PM). I also have availability throughout the evening and overnight, making it easy for me to accommodate a variety of schedules and pet needs! As a summer intern currently staying in provided housing, I'm not able to offer in-home boarding. However, I'm very comfortable caring for pets in their own homes and have extensive experience with both drop-in visits and overnight stays. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and care to keep them happy and comfortable while you're away! It is very important to me that you are confident your pet is taken care of with no worries, so I like to send frequent updates and photos as well. It's also very important to me that my clients come home to a clean, tidy house—just the way they left it.

About: I’ve taken care of many many family owned pets since I was a little kid. They are just like family! I know they stole your heart, let them steal mine too. I am self employed currently, doing doordash and babysitting. I have more than plenty of time to come and spoil your fur babies with love and treats. You can feel safe with your fur babies with me. I provide nothing but the best of care. Overall your pets will get all of my attention and kept happy with lots of play time, loving, and treats!

“She was so flexible and walked my dogs on a last minute basis, given that it was an emergency with me, I appreciate that flexibility!”

About: I’m an active animal enthusiast. My fur baby Lucy is my world and she receives the best care possible. If you wish for your pets to receive the same care then you’ve come to the right place! A-Z services with quality guaranteed. I’ve spent 4 years in the veterinary field, actively learning and taking my education further. What better way to offset an income then to be around the most joyous part of my day, all day! I’m an equal opportunist and love everyone’s fur babies as I would my own. After all, pets are better than people! My walks are thorough and my sitting services attentive. I offer extra services such as bathing and park visits. If you’re going to entrust someone, then entrust me! I am self employed and get to choose my own schedule. A little extra income between my own daily to-do’s fits my lifestyle! Thanks for your consideration I can take care of your animals in your home the same as I would in my own. I can adequately administer injectable’s subcutaneously and intramuscular. Water bowls filled all the time and food bowls by your wishes!

About: Hello, I’m Elena and I am Retired. I’m known as a tree hugger and protector of all animals. I have a great yard and home for all kinds of pets. I’ve raised many pets, from ducks and lizards to dogs and birds. I’ve had them all, almost. I’ve trained many dogs from birth to adults. I have experience with puppy’s as well as our aging dogs that need extra love and assistance. I once had a warehouse and after a hurricane so many dogs were dumped or lost. I had 20 dogs I rescued after the storm, and kept them until I found their owners or re-homed them. I kept a few too😎 Since I am retired, I have plenty of time to spend with your babies. Im almost always available. I would be happy to take care of your pets, even animals with special needs. My home is open to all types of animals. I do have a labradoodle that is super friendly and loves all dogs and people. She is submissive and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body. Playing is a top priority in my home.

“Alyssa took great care of our three pets. We have two big dogs and a cat. She came over for a meet and greet and I felt confident that she could handle our big over exuberant shepherd mix! We were away over Thanksgiving and she gave us peace of mind that our babies were well cared for. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’m a huge animal lover and the type of person who will absolutely stop to say hi to every dog I pass. I truly love caring for animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while their owners are away. I’ve been watching dogs and cats for years for friends, family, referrals, and people I’ve met along the way, and I genuinely enjoy every minute of it. Growing up, my family helped with dog rescues — and still do today — so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I love getting to know every pet’s unique personality. I also have experience with longer-term care and have watched pets for entire summers (up to 3 months at a time), so I understand how important consistency, patience, and trust are when caring for someone’s furry family member. My goal is always to make your pet feel like they’re on their own little vacation while you’re away and make sure they are happy, loved, comfortable, and cared for. I know leaving your pet with someone is a big deal, and I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and someone you can genuinely feel comfortable trusting with your pet. I would be so excited and grateful for the opportunity to meet you and your pet 🐶🐱. I work from home remotely a lot and am able to take full care of your pets on the weekends and most weekdays. It is a hobby/job for me because I love animals so much! I treat everyone’s pets like my own. Growing up, I had cats, dogs, horses, and every animal you could think of. I would love to have an animal now of my own, but I travel often!

“Adam was right on time and sent pics while taking our dog out. Very responsive and attentive! No need to be worried with Adam.”

If I am selected to care for your animals I will feed and walk on your schedule but I will not be able to house sit in my home.

“Angelina is amazing! She’s so patient, reliable, and genuinely cares about dogs. Our girl absolutely loves her walks with Angelina — you can tell she feels comfortable and excited every time. She always sends the sweetest updates and photos, which makes us feel at ease while we’re away. We’re so grateful to have found someone who treats our pup with such kindness and attention. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who’s dependable and trustworthy!”

About: I house sat for multiple neighbors when I was in high school. Since then I have house sat or helped friends with their pets through out the years. These jobs were always just as favors, but they would return to me for the job they needed. I come from a family with lots of animals. We always had dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses growing up. All for pets and I love them all! ☺️ I work from home part time. Thus my hours for this job are very flexible. I would prefer to work mid day between 10:00-2:00 MTWF I can not accommodate in home services. Due to roommate’s dog sometimes having an issue with other animals and sometimes not having an issue with other animals. Thus I can not risk there being an issue with your animal.

About: I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely treat every pet like my own! I’m great with puppies; routine, training basics, and gentle structure. I’m equally comfortable caring for seniors who need extra calm and comfort. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, so you can trust your pet is safe, understood, and truly cared for!! This isn’t just a job to me; I love creating a happy, peaceful experience for every animal I meet! I am working part time, so I am flexible to fit the timing and needs of you and your pets! Weekdays are the best bet for me, weekends can be a little tricky! Whether your pet is in my home or I’m in yours, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment! I follow your routines closely; feeding times, walks, potty breaks, cues, and any training you’re working on! Your pet will feel safe with me! In your home, I keep things tidy, respect your space, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles of course! When it comes to sitting in my own home, I have a golden puppy, under a year; also a cat, so sitting in my clients home would be my best option!

About: I haven’t killed my dog in 13years yet, won’t let your dog die on my watch. Call me the dog watcher😎 But on a serious note, I have been a dog-sitter for over 13 years. Always taking care of my friends & family furry friends. I am currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to have time take care of your “fur-baby.” 😊 Communication between me & the pets owner is priority for me. I truly try to cherish every moment I get with a pet. Even small things like walking for an extra 5 minutes or even reminding them how good of a boy or girl they are is important for me.
