House Sitting in Mebane

About: Just finished medical school at Duke and looking to earn some extra money and hang out with some pups before I move to start my career as an emergency medicine doctor. Dogs are my absolute passion and I have raised and trained both of my dogs from 6-weeks old by myself. Safety is always my main priority! Additionally, I am active and familiar with all the local parks, Eno River trails, and dog-walking spots. I have no other responsibilities currently so can dedicate 100% of my time and energy to your dog's care and wellbeing. My goal with pet sitting is to allow your dog to keep their usual routine and keep them comfortable while you are away! I am ready to dedicate my time and energy to your pup's personal schedule! I understand that dog's are routine-loving animals and am happy to adjust my routine to fit what they know. As I just graduated medical school, I currently have no other commitments and can be with your dogs full-time if that's what they need. I also have the availability to do walks or pop-in visits at any time of day with no restrictions. With two dogs of my own, it is not feasible for me to care for dogs in my own home. However, because my husband works from home, I am free to travel to care for other dogs. I have house sitting experience and know how to be a respectful caretaker of both pets and home.

“Kerri was fabulous with Wags! Also with communication and care of my home highly recommend!”

“Jennifer is a very knowledgeable and responsible dog sitter. I was very pleased with the care for my dog, her understanding of how to handle a pup, and her leaving the house is immaculate condition. I was very impressed and pleased. I hope that she will housesit and dog sit for us again!”

“Amy was amazing and I am confident she treated my 2 dogs and 2 cats better than I do. She got one of my dogs to chase a ball, which I have never been able to do. She stayed with mu furry clan and I returned to an immaculate house. I could not recommend Amy enough and will definitely request her again.”

“Danielle did a fantastic job just like she did the last time. She took excellent care of Bobo our dog and she also kept the house beautiful and neat and tidy. We were gone for six days and we had no worries.”

“Matt was great with our dog and 2 cats. He sent us updates and asked questions when our directions were not clear. I felt that we knew what was going on at home and that all our furbabies were happy and well taken care of. Thanks, Matt!”

“Lily was very attentive to Penny's needs and came by the night before our departure to get the full rundown on Penny and our home. She sent regular updates so we knew Penny was having a wonderful time! Lily was very mindful of our space. We'll definitely book with Lily again.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats, having grown up with a family dog and owning cats since early adulthood. I have provided pet sitting services for family and friends, including caring for animals with disabilities and those requiring medication. I am currently a veterinary technician student and work as a veterinary receptionist, giving me hands-on experience in animal handling and care. I work full-time at a veterinary clinic in Chapel Hill, so I have hands-on experience caring for pets and keeping them happy and healthy. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting on weekends starting Friday at 6 PM. For clients in the Chapel Hill area, I may also be available for weekday drop-ins depending on my work schedule. During boarding or drop-in visits, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine as much as possible. For drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet is fed, has fresh water, gets bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and playtime. I’m also happy to administer medications if needed and will always keep you updated with photos and notes after each visit. For in-home pet sitting or boarding, I create a calm, structured environment with regular feeding times, exercise, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to behavior and health, and with my veterinary clinic experience, I’m comfortable recognizing any changes that may need attention. I’ll follow all your care instructions closely—whether that’s special diets, medications, crate routines, or favorite activities—so your pet feels as relaxed and cared for as possible while you’re away.

“Meredith was great staying with my cat and housesitting for 3 nights! I got regular updates, both pics and video, and I could tell she liked hanging out with him, which was nice. Came home to a clean house. Would definitely (and hope to!) book her again.”

“Presley was great. On time and communicative for house sitting our two dogs. Overall our pets didn’t even seem to notice we were gone.”

Taylor K.

“Claire did a great job caring for our 9-month-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy while we were out of town for five days. This was our first time leaving him, and she made the experience stress-free with her excellent communication. She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave us great peace of mind. When we returned, our pup was happy and well cared for, and the house was spotless. I would absolutely recommend Claire to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

Karen P.

“Alessandria did a great job keeping my dogs safe and happy. I appreciate that she was able to be flexible on times as I wasn't sure with the weather if we were going to make it back on time. The house was left neat and tidy, and she helped prepare for a bad winter storm coming.”

Nancy W.

“Patricia watch our two dogs Dora and Spark for over a week. This was the first time we had Patricia as our house/dog sitter and we will definitely request her services again. Patricia sent us pictures and kept us updated about the dogs. She promptly answered any of my emails and contacted us if she had any questions. Patricia also watered plants, feed the fish, and picked up the mail. The house was in perfect condition when we returned. I highly recommend Patricia.”

Karen K.

“Mae did a terrific job caring for our beagle and he enjoyed her company! She was punctual, enthusiastic and kept us well informed of how things were going while we were out. I heartily recommend her as a dog sitter, and we intend to use her help again in the future. Thank you, Mae!”

“Amber was awesome!!! All of my babies were very happy when I got home I could tell they had been well taken care of!!! She stayed at my house for six days and did an awesome job. I have persnickety pets!!! And they all seem to bond with her and had less anxiety than they usually do when I leave. The house was in good shape when I got home no extra cleaning!!! Amber, I appreciate you so much thank you so much for taking care of my babies as if they were yours I will be booking you again for sure!!!!”

“Susan was amazing with our animals. She was so communicative and sent us pictures and updates everyday. Our four pets were well taken care of for the week. This is the first time my wife and I had to both travel for work at the same time. Susan took the job last minute and bonded with all the animals right away. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”

Chris L.

“Sherry took such great care of my fur baby while we were out of town. She was patient with him and followed the instructions I left. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

Bethany N.

“Elena is very gentle and calm with our elderly dog with severe separation anxiety. Yet, our younger, playful, enthusiastic dog is very happy with her, as well. She is knowledgeable about dogs and their needs, and prompt and responsible. Thank you to Elena for taking such good care of our pups! We will definitely hire her again!”

About: I grew up in horse country and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. Being around farms from a young age taught me responsibility, attentiveness, and a deep respect for animal care. I’ve been entrusted by friends, family, and neighbors to look after animals of all kinds for as long as I can remember. I especially love dogs and cats and have years of experience caring for them. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I have a very flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my days around walks, visits, and quality time, making sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they need. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I closely follow all instructions for feeding, walks, and medications while giving plenty of attention and affection. I’m also very clean, respectful, and considerate of your space.

“Daysi was absolutely amazing. She came and met our dog, before house sitting while we were on vacation. Our dog has epilepsy and needs medication twice a day, she administrated everything perfectly. She sent a variety of pictures and kept us updated once a day (with detailed information). We will definitely be booking her again.”
