“Lindy was fantastic! She helped me when I was in a pinch and was always quick to respond. She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay and clearly has lots of experience with dogs. I know Kucik was taken great care of; I will go back to her anytime I need a dog sitter in the future!”
“All went great Bella was a happy girl! She is going back in a couple of days for a longer visit. I am not worried in the least with having to leave her, knowing she will be well taken care of!”
“I love Jennifer. She took great care of my little spoiled baby. I received pictures and updates on how Kia was doing. I’ll definitely request Jennifer again. Jennifer loved on my little precious baby. Thank you Jennifer”
“This was my first experience with Rover. Alex and his 2 sons were great with my dogs. Alex and his 2 dogs have a calm presence which is great for my excitable dogs. I received many consistent texts, photos and videos to let me know how they were doing. Alex was flexible with the drop off and pick up which I really appreciated.”
“Desiree did an excellent job with our two dogs. She was friendly, responsive, and professional. She has the perfect set up to care for your animals and she sends timely updates and photos during the stay. I strongly recommend booking with her.”
“This is the second time Andrea has watched our two dogs for us. Both times, she has been flexible to work with our changing schedules and the dogs have a blast at her house, sleeping constantly for a few days after we pick them back up. We will definitely continue to use her in the future.”
“My little pup Franny had a wonderful stay with Isabel and her family! When I picked my pup up after the weekend, she was so tired and content after playing with Isabel's dogs and having access to the wonderful, big fenced yard. Isabel kept me up-to-date with pictures and info about Franny, how she was eating, playing, and relaxing. I will definitely reach out to Isabel again and I highly recommend her!!”
“Molly was great with Leo while we were away for a few days. Very kind and caring. She provided frequent updates and photos of Leo. She even gave Leo a stuffed toy to which he immediately became attached. So sweet! Would highly recommend to others!”
“What an incredible find! I recommend Nataly and her family if you’re looking for a warm, compassionate and caring place to leave your little love when you can’t be with them. She is an excellent communicator.! while we were gone she sent so many pictures. She has a beautiful home with a large fenced in backyard but most of all the way she took care of our dog during thunderstorms was so sweet. When I got the picture with Maddi, our little shaking fur ball, wrapped in a cozy blanket with only her big brown eyes showing I knew how much she cared about keeping her comfortable. Looks like we found Maddi’s second home when we cannot take her with us.”
“Very accommodating and understanding with travel delays. Dogs looked healthy and happy. Best part was she provided a complementary dog wash for the boys . Definitely recommend.”
“Kimmi is great! She was really easy to communicate with and flexible. We did a meet & greet in which my dog wasn't totally comfortable with her dogs (this occasionally happens with our dog - not Kimmi's fault!), but Kimmi was not fazed, still had a space for our dog to stay and everything ended up going well. Totally recommended!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 20+ years and have always treated them as part of the family. In addition to being a lifelong dog owner, I have over 10 years of experience providing dog sitting and overnight care for friends, family, and other pet owners. What sets me apart is the personal, family-focused care I provide. When your dog stays with us, they’re not just being watched—they’re welcomed into our home and treated like one of our own. Our family includes two kids who absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, which is why I prioritize keeping you updated with pictures and videos so you can see how your pup is doing while you’re away. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re with us. 🐾❤️ I’m home all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays so I am able to keep your pets routine those days! During the week, I will be at work if your pet is okay at home alone for 8 hours. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, comfort level, feeding schedule, and individual needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and consistent. I’m attentive to their behavior and make sure they receive plenty of supervision, affection, exercise, and downtime. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. That’s why I communicate openly with pet parents and provide regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Our home is a family environment with two kids who love dogs and enjoy giving them attention and affection. We welcome each dog into our home and treat them like one of our own. 🐾❤️
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, I had everything from cats and dogs to rabbits and birds. Today, all of my cats and dogs are rescue pets, and caring for them has taught me the patience, love, and attention every pet deserves. ❤️🐾 NOTE: I do have a Sanford address, but I am actually located near Western Harnett Elementary school off Buffalo Lake rd. I am not in the Sanford area whatsoever. As a retired pet lover, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to your furry family members. I follow a daily routine with my own pets, starting at 4:15 a.m. with morning potty breaks and feeding. My dogs are taken out multiple times a day, and all of my pets are accustomed to a regular schedule for meals, playtime, and naps. I will provide the same attentive, reliable care to your pets as I do to my own. 🐾 I have turned my bonus room into a fun and relaxing space for my cats. There are toys, a cat tree, cozy beds for napping, and lots of places to hide and feel secure. A gate at the door keeps my dogs out, allowing the cats to enjoy their playtime and nap time without any interruptions. 🐾💕If your cat or small dog prefers to have their own space, I can simply close the door to help them feel comfortable and secure. The room is very spacious, so your pet will never feel confined or trapped. My goal is to provide a calm, stress-free environment where every pet can relax and feel at home. 🐾💕 Your small dog will always have company and attention, as they will stay with me throughout the day. My dogs are sweet, friendly, and welcoming to new furry friends. They are not aggressive and will not bother or harass your pet, ensuring a safe and stress-free stay. 🐾💕

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs.

- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your McConnell.
