“Chasity was amazing! She was great about responding in a timely manner and sending me updates about how my dogs were doing. I could tell that they were in good hands upon dropping them off and I was able to enjoy my vacation without any worries about my dogs. I plan to re-use Chasity’s dog sitting services in the future!”


“Kimberly was fantastic! I was delayed in dropping my guy off and she was extremely accommodating. He had such a great time and I received pictures and updates regularly. We will definitely use her for any future dog sitting needs!”


“Lucia and her family were so sweet and wonderful with our dogs ! They took care of our 2 pups for 4 days and they sent us updates everyday. They played and got along well with their dog and children. Highly recommend Lucia !”


“Caitlin made me feel so safe leaving my Boston terrier for the day. She sent lots of pictures, took her on walks, and let her lay outside to get her daily sun bathing in:) couldn’t recommend someone better!”


“My puppy had an absolute blast with them! I 100% recommend, they kept me updated on how he was doing. Went on a lot of walks and was so accommodating when I ended up having to pick up a few hours later.”


About: I’ve helped my baby through a hard battle with an autoimmune disorder. I’m capable of anything at this point. Especially, loving on pups that need their caretaker to go the extra mile. I’m able to drop in around lunch and/or house sit most every evening. I can especially help travelers that want to bring their dog on vacation but don’t want to have to do all the less fun activities for their pets. I’ll do whatever it asked of me while respecting your home, your loved fur baby, your money and your time. I truly do have your back.

“She was very communicative the entire time my cats stayed with her and made sure to update me with pictures. She even dealt with my very hectic schedule due to moving. I highly recommend her!”


About: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years. All of my pets have lived long, healthy lives based on excellent feeding, grooming, and regular medical care. I genuinely love animals and have a very watchful eye on their well-being. I am a retired school administrator with a 36-year history of creating productive learning environments and protecting the lives of thousands of school children. Care-taking is my thing. Now, I have a very flexible schedule/calendar, and I am wide open to opportunities to meet and care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I am available to follow instructions for drop-in or pet/house-sitting in the client’s home—including feeding and letting dogs out for potty breaks, feeding and checking in on cats, and feeding fish or birds.

“Our English Setter (Denver) stayed with Susan over Spring Break. Denver can be a stress bomb when away from his normal routine and environment. Susan did a great job settling him down and taking care of him. When we picked him up, he was in perfect health, calm and relaxed. We will definitely use Susan again if we return to the Emerald Isle area with Denver.”

We prefer them to be around us whether it’s out in the yard or in the kitchen washing the dishes. In your home, is per your instructions.

“Leaving our sweet boy behind has never been as comforting and low stress as it was with having Jason watch him for us. Knowing Colt was having a great time and in a loving home while we were out of town means the world to us! We came back to a safe and happy boy. We are so grateful!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was 18. I lived with as many as 6 dogs when I was younger, so I can balance a lot. Currently I have a 6 month old puppy and she is potty trained and I can train puppies to do basic tricks. I work from home and am a full time college student so I stay home often! I use my phone a lot for work so I have no problem sending constant updates as well. I wake up super early and maintain an active lifestyle as well. I have a fenced in backyard and have a spacious living room area where they can nap or lounge around. I work from home and can offer close surveillance and reporting if needed! I have two beautiful girls that are also super active so if you need your baby tired out and having fun they will help with that!

Client home means client rules. I will abide by the rules and make sure your animals feels safe no matter where they are. Your furbabies are the main priority.

“Nikkie was super friendly and sent lots of photos!! My dog has separation anxiety so the first day he didn’t eat much. Nikkie showed incredible compassion in her communications with me about it, and it is very clear that she loves animals. I know my dog had a great time with her and her kids, and I will absolutely be booking again!”


About: I’ve moved a lot and everywhere I went my one job that stayed consistent was pet sitting. I started watching family friends and neighbors pets at age 10. Pets have been a very big part of my life since I was little. I do want you to know the price could be higher or lower depending on the specific situation. I’m currently working from my home . I’m available for boarding 7 days a week. I’m at my house full time and would love to have some furry friends over. I live on base, which has dog parks and is very safe. I take walks around my neighborhood frequently so you don’t have to worry about your pet not going out. I don’t have a big fenced in backyard but it is good for small dogs. I have a kitten who loves dogs and cats. He’s very sweet and lovable. I work part-time from my home so i’ll have plenty of time to play,cuddle, and walk your furry friend. My job allows me to choose my own hours so i’m able to make your pet feel loved when they are here. I have a small fenced backyard good for small dogs. I also have a very friendly kitten who loves dogs and cats. There are a lot of dog parks by me along with a lot of places to explore.

“This was my first time using Rover and also my first time being away from my pup for a whole week. I couldn't be happier about how awesome Shawne was! She was very communicative, sent plenty of pictures and even has a sweet dog of her own (Piper) who my dog fell in love with! It really felt like my dog was having a great vacation while I was having a vacation of my own which was such a relief. I cannot recommend Shawne enough!”


About: I have taken care of all types of animals for about 5 years now. I raised my current 2 goldens and am used to giving animals lots of attention, love, and care! I am a student so I have class occasionally but am very flexible and never typically away for more than 3 hours. I also have my own transportation. I am used to very high energy pets and understand the need for lots of walking, playing, and attention! I have had experience with a wide variety of ages and sizes and can tailor my care to your pets needs. I am also very attentive to any mood changes and detecting sickness, and am highly responsive when a pet isn't feeling well.
