About: I have pets at for many years. I also worked at a dog kennel so I'm used to all different shapes sizes and breeds. I enjoy training my own dog. I also worked on a farm so I have some farming knowledge as well. I enjoy being an active person and taking pets out. I want pet Care to be able to be my full-time completely integrated daily routine I take care of my own animals but I would like to be able to take care of other people's full time. I do however start my program of study sometime in August. In a client's home I would strive to keep the same schedule for the pets because I'm sure that they are already stressed out when their people leave. This being same food bathroom routine making sure they get playtime attention.
About: I do work a full time job August-May as a cafeteria manager at a school, so please check my calendar for availability. :) I have hands-on experience with puppies, seniors, and reactive dogs. I approach every animal with patience, calm energy, and genuine love. I have two rescues: Athena, an 8-year-old beagle, and Ford, an 8-year-old black lab/German shepherd mix. My daily routine already revolves around playtime, and snuggles so adding more furry friends to the mix is second nature to me. I always aim to keep pets in a stress free and familiar environment, whether that’s in your home or out on a walk. I follow your care instructions and give regular updates so you feel connected while you’re away. I do not offer boarding at this time due to my own dog’s needs, but I’m committed to safe, thoughtful care in your home!
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I love them and understand the way they are so important to your life. I have worked 5 years with the Iredell Humane Society and 1 year with the Forsyth Humane Society. I take care of them as though they are my own! I am currently available anytime to come to your home or pick them up. I am trustworthy and know several parks in the area if needed. I am unable to keep in my home at this time, subject to change in the future. I look forward to that opportunity and will update.
“Ashley was absolutely amazing. This was our first time leaving pops with anyone and as soon as her first visit was over, we knew he was in great hands. She took pictures and spent so much time with her. It made our trip even better because we were not worried about a thing at home with our cat.”

“We’re so happy with the care our dog received! Celeste took him out twice a day, made sure he had water, played ball with him, and gave him plenty of attention. It’s clear our pup was in great hands!”
About: A little background: I have been a pet owner since I was a child. I grew up on a small farm complete with horses, chickens, rabbits, goats, cats and of course dogs. I'm the current owner of a German shepherd, 2 Pomeranians, 2 cats, 5 horses, multiple chickens, and rabbits. I have years of animal handling experience through volunteering at the Central Florida Zoo and Audubon Center for Birds of Prey. I've also owned many exotic pets like turtles, fish and birds. My passion for animals has caused me to pursue a degree in environmental sciences and biology from the University of Central Florida. I love all animals and believe they should be taken care of to best of our abilities. I have many long time customer references available upon request. I live on a growing homestead that requires me to check in daily on my animals and pets. As long as I can check in on my farm we should be able to continue your normal pet care routine. In situations of conflicting schedules, I have an assistant available to help care for the dogs during the day. We can discuss our schedules and figure out what works best for everyone's needs. What you can expect from me: While your dog(s) is in my care I will provide them with the love and attention they deserve and will strive to keep them as close to their normal schedule as possible. I will prepare their food in whatever manner they are used to including any special instructions, dietary supplements, heating or mixing they may require. As the pet-mom of a Pomeranian with liver issues, I understand how important a consistent diet is for our pets and I promise to continue your dog's usual regimen. I will take your dog on potty breaks/walks as often as you request as I strive to keep to your dogs normal routine. I will send texts/pictures/emails/updates of your pets on request. I will respect your household and will leave everything as you left it. I will check mail, water plants, and care for other kinds of pets (cats, fish, exotics, small pets) at your request. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) and for the opportunity to provide care for them while you're away.

About: Hello from Katie! Moved here from the Midwest about a year ago! I have owned dogs my whole life and couldn't imagine life without them. I worked at the dog kennel next to my house growing up and learned how to give exceptional care to dogs of all sizes. I have since worked full time at a horse farm and love animals all shapes and sizes. I have two dogs of my own that are my babies. I will enjoy my time with your dog and make sure they enjoy their time with me. After working full time I know how stressful it can be to make sure your pet is properly exercised everyday. Your pet will be safe as I make their walk as enjoyable as possible! Please reach out with any questions and concerns you may have.
About: I work as a Kennel Technician taking care and loving the dogs who have been pulled from kill shelters to rehabilitate them, so we are able to relocate them and find them good homes.

I've been around dogs and cats my entire life. I have a strong love for animals and I'm a very patient person. I know how to treat them the way they should be treated. I'd like to think I'm amazing at what I do and not only am I great with animals but I love working with them. I will love your dogs and take care of them just as I do my own!

Payton D.
“Payton is a very responsible young lady. She is truly an animal lover, mine love when she comes to take care of them in our home. Cats and dogs, one cat on 3 meds twice a day. She feeds, cleans boxes, and dog pen, and gives love and playtime to the crew. She even has our permission to take them to the vet if needed, and is ok with doing that. I never have to worry about the animals and the house with her watching over things.”
Sara M.
“Hello there! Sara has been my best friend since Kindergarten, for over 25 years at this point. She is a kind soul, who loves animals of all kinds. We lived together for a year right after college, and at that time I got a cat. To this day my cat will come running into the room when Sara comes over and won’t leave her side until Sara goes home. Sara has a key to my house and if there’s ever an emergency where I’d need someone to take care of my baby, she’d be the one to do it. She knows her quirks, when to clean her litter box, and when the cat wants attention vs when it wants an extra nibble of food. Sara also is wonderful with dogs. I am a cat person through and through, but her dogs are so sweet and gentle, and the only ones I don’t get scared of when they want to snuggle up with me when I visit.”
