Pet care experience

Couple Will Love Your Pets!

We are a married couple in our 40s interested in house/pet-sitting together. We have pet-sat for a few NC and TN families for the past several years, and both of us had pet-sat before we met as well. Zachary works from home and so will be around the house much of the day if dogs need a mid-day walk or meal. Denny wakes up early and can feed and walk dogs in the early morning. Between us, we have experience with cats, dogs, fish, birds, rodents, rabbits, livestock, reptiles, and amphibians. We are willing to work with other animals as well. We prefer to sleep at the pet-owner's home when needed, as this means that we’re around and available for the pets at various times throughout the day. Denny also does drop-in care and dog-walking. Zachary has experience training dogs and volunteering with cats as well. Looking forward to meeting you!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

We don’t bring pets into our home but prefer overnight care in the pets’ home and are also open to drop-in care and walks. We are both very gentle with dogs and cats and enjoy lots of cuddles with pets, and we also make sure to take them for walks if desired.

Denny and Zach were everything we could have asked for in dog/house sitters. They took great care of our dog and our house. I absolutely recommend them!

Denise and Zach took excellent care of my pets as well as our home while we were away. After meeting them, I knew they were the perfect choice. I’ll definitely use them again.

Denny and Zach are wonderful, caring, attentive, and reliable pet/house sitters. They have stayed with our beloved Labrador Retrievers on several occasions and my pups adore them! They give them loads of attention and walks, and keep them company while we are away. I highly recommend them and know that you and your pets will not be disappointed!

Denny and Zach have helped us more than once, taking care of our dog and three cats for extended vacations. The animals were comfortable and cared for - both D&Z had special chemistry with the pets, which was a bonus knowing they were in good company while we were away.

It’s important to know if dogs have any specific behaviors that are important for us to know. Do they eat socks or shoes? Will they get out of the backyard on their own? Do they bark at delivery drivers or do they generally bark a lot? In addition, it’s important to know about the dogs’ allergies, special needs, and preferences. Do they eat once or twice a day? Will they eat human food if it’s within reach? Where would you like them to sleep?
