“Kellie was fantastic. Very communicative and super attentive to our dog who has tummy issues. She really goes the extra mile. Definitely recommend!!”


“Jennifer was a lifesaver when we needed last minute help with Murph. She was flexible, responsive, and really gave Murph the extra attention she needed while we were away. We will certainly book with Jennifer next time we need help with Murph. Highly recommend Jennifer!”


“Regina was an absolute gem while we were on vacation! She showed up promptly every day, took excellent care of our cats, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. We loved getting daily videos and photos of her being sweet with them—it was clear they were in great hands. As a final touch, she even left us homemade baked bread on her last day, which was such a thoughtful surprise. Highly recommend Regina if you’re looking for someone who’s both reliable and kindhearted.”

About: I am in love with all animals, dogs, cats, you name it, I can watch it! I have helped train a few dogs, such as past pets and my brothers dog, as well as taken care of each of them. I have house sat multiple occasions to take care of family friends animals while they are out of town. I have stayed overnight at family members homes to take care of their animals while they are on vacation or working. No animal is intimidating to me, I love them all! I am great with small animals, large animals, hyper animals, all kinds. Nothing is a challenge for me! I try to keep a healthy, fit lifestyle, so I am up for any activity for any animal. Also, I am a teacher so my summer is open! I am a teacher, so my availability is wide open right now! I can provide any services listed on my profile up until mid August, then my availability will be lower. Currently, I cannot board animals at my home, however, I can certainly watch over them at their home or walk with in my neighborhood or in yours. I’d want to meet the animals first, so they know who I am beforehand. And if you have a certain schedule for your animals, I will stick by it!

About: Hello! My name is Katrina, I am an elementary school counselor currently saving up to buy a home! I have my own dog, Milo, a 4-year old lab mix but I have always loved dogs and have experience volunteering at service dog training facilities, shelters, and I have fostered dogs, as well! I have done dog walking and petsitting for multiple years now and have experience working with all types of dogs, small or large, reactive or non-reactive, all energy levels, and I love them all :) I will update you as much as you want on your pet when I am with him or her, I know it can be stressful to be away from them but I promise they are in good hands if they are with me! I currently work full-time so I am available after 4pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends! I am more than happy to work with your schedule. I have a large, fenced-in backyard and my own dog that loves to spend time outside. Please let me know whether your dog is more of an indoor/outdoor dog and how I can adjust the environment to fit his/her needs.

“Nicolle is amazing and so sweet! She took care of my sweet little Corgi Tinkles while I went out of town for the weekend. She checked in with me everyday and sent pictures! I would highly recommend her services to anyone in need of a sitter for their furry pet. I will be booking her again in the future!”



About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine lifelong passion I have for caring for animals. I actually started taking care of both cats and dogs when I was in 3rd grade, which gave me an early sense of responsibility and a deep understanding of how to connect with pets. Since then, I've continued to build on that experience, always treating each pet like they're my own. I go out of my way to make sure they're not just safe and healthy, but truly happy—whether that means extra playtime, a comfy spot to nap, or simply giving them lots of love and attention. Their joy and comfort are always my top priorities. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. Each morning, I start by feeding my pet and making sure they have fresh water. I also take time for a short walk or play session to get them moving. In the afternoon/evening, usually dedicate time for a longer walk and some quality bonding time. I clean their bedding, wash food and water bowls thoroughly, and check that they’re up to date on medications or preventive care. It’s a consistent commitment, but it’s also rewarding and helps me stay organized and active. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort. I follow specific feeding schedules, ensure fresh water is always available, and provide regular exercise suited to the pet’s breed and energy level. I also pay close attention to any health or behavioral changes and keep the environment clean and secure. In a client's home, I respect their routines and instructions closely, maintain open communication, and provide updates as needed. I make sure pets feel comfortable in their space by giving them positive attention, maintaining their usual routines, and minimizing stress when they're away from their owners.

About: What sets me apart is my experience with various pets, including my own energetic Jack Russell Terrier. I know how to handle high-energy dogs, making sure they get plenty of exercise and stimulation. I’m also experienced with both playful puppies and senior pets, giving them the right balance of activity and rest. Whether it's basic training or gentle care for older animals, your pet will receive personalized attention. I’m attentive to special dietary or medical needs, ensuring your pet's comfort and well-being. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention to your pet throughout the day. Whether it's regular walks, playtime, or just being there to keep them company, I can easily fit pet care into my daily routine. Your pet will never feel alone and will always get the care they need. In my home, pets are treated like family. They can relax on the couch, play with toys, and enjoy a comfortable, safe environment. I provide regular walks, feedings, and plenty of attention. If needed, I can bathe and groom them as well. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely, ensuring pets feel secure in their familiar environment. I keep everything tidy and make sure pets get the same love and care they would at home.

“Cally went above and beyond! Not only did she take great care of our dog, she also gave us detailed updates. Cally is a true dog lover, very professional and a great communicator. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again in the future.”


About: I’ve volunteered with The Humane Society of Charlotte for 2 years, so I have quite the experience to administer medication and caring for younger to older animals! I do work part-time, so availability won’t be a problem! Therefore, I’ll have the availability to care for your pets while you and/or your family are away! When I am not home, your animal will or will not be crated based on your preference. Primarily for their safety and for the safety of the home. When I am home, they will be supervised and can run free!

About: I have had a dog for about a year and I have learned so much about dogs, taking care of them, and training. I would love to help with your best friends while you are away. I work full time (9-5) M-F. I can spend time with your pets in the evenings or any time on weekends. During the week I am available after 6 pm. I will happily follow whatever instructions you provide for your pet. Their comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I’ll make sure they feel secure, loved, and cared for in your home or mine. I’m reliable, attentive, and always respectful of your space and routines.

“Miles was amazing! He was very reliable and he took extra great care of our pets, especially our dog who has to take multiple medications throughout the day. He had great communication, he was very flexible and pleasant to work with. We loved his daily updates! It was great having someone we could trust watching our pets!”


About: I officially started pet sitting for relatives in 2022, but I’ve helped take care of our family dog from a puppy starting in 2014 (we took shifts crate training etc)! I have experience with a variety of ages and energy levels in dogs and have also taken care of 3 cats! Newly certified in pet CPR/ First Aid. Your babies will be in good hands with me 💕 I’m currently unemployed, so my schedule is super open right now. We can talk about specifics if needed (occasional doctors appointments, etc) but everything should be easy on this end. For home visits and overnight stays, I like having detailed care instructions to make your pets feel comfortable and make sure we don’t deviate too much from their typical routine. The back seats lay down in my car, so if you’re comfortable (and if it’s allowed on the app idk I’m new here) I can drive them to nearby walking locations! I also always make sure the concrete isn’t too hot for their little toes.

I am also happy to house sit, water plants and do light housework, errands, or cooking as agreed upon in writing prior to service start date. I will care for your pets in your home. If possible, I'd like to have a brief (complimentary) meet and greet with you and your pet(s) prior to pet sitting services to learn the preferences of you and your pet(s) and to build rapport with your pet(s). If agreed upon in writing prior to service start date, other services are also available such as plant care, light housework, errands, etc.

About: I will love your pet as if they were my own! I will take your dog for walks, play with them, make sure they are fed and have plenty of water and give them lots of love and attention. I will make sure your dog feels wanted, loved and make sure they are happy before I leave. I watch friends dogs often and by the end of each weekend I always end up missing them. I myself have a little puppy and know how important it is to have someone you trust and know will treat your animal the right way. I know I will be the perfect fit for your dog and I will make sure they are the happiest when you return home!

I love to travel and knowing that Lisa is caring for them is such a comfort and it allows me to enjoy my trip. And she's great in a pinch too for the busy days that I need a little assistance. Some people are dog people. Some people are cat people. And some people are people people. Lisa is all three rolled into one. She's just good people! She's a godsend!”

I only expected her to drop in a couple times a day to feed and walk him but she actually came and picked him up and kept him with her so he wouldn't be lonely. She also watched him a day longer than she needed to (it was supposed to be split time between her and another friend). When I got him back he seemed very happy!”
