A typical day

We are an active household with a large fenced in backyard, toys, kiddie/doggie pool, and tons of space to sprawl out. We will adhere to all dietary needs and ensure proper nutrition, have daily walks and play time, and snuggles on the couch when they’re all tuckered out.

Pet care experience

** Hampstead area! 15 minutes from Porters Neck. 30 minutes from Midtown Wilmington. 15 minutes from Castle Hayne** I have done pet sitting for over 20 years for friends and coworkers. I fully believe they are not just pets… they are family! We have a very social and friendly black lab mix, Gigi, that we rescued from Pender County Humane Society. Before her time at the shelter, we were told she was in raised in a home with other dogs and cats. Gigi certainly misses the interaction and companionship of a furry counterpart and what better way to make sure she has new friends than to pet sit! Rest assure your pet’s safety, health, and comfort are my top priority. I am no stranger to caring for senior dogs or administering oral/topical medication. I also have experience with puppies and breeds of all size. Your furry friend will get tons of belly rubs, plenty of walks to sniff all the trees and fire hydrants, an occasional treat (or two), and lots and lots of love! I lsend multiple photos and updates each day so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is being well cared for but of course can cater to your communication preferences! My children are 8 and 14 and enjoy taking part in the responsibilities of pet care and loving on fur babies! From going on family walks with the pups, playing ball in the fenced backyard, or snuggling up on the sofa together …your pet will feel loved and at home during their stay with us!
