Cat Sitting in Mountain Rest

About: From a young age, I’ve been responsible for caring for animals of many kinds, from hamsters to horses, with dogs always being a big part of my life. This experience has made me attentive, patient, and dependable when caring for dogs. I’m comfortable following routines, reading basic behavior cues, and providing consistent, loving care. I treat every dog as my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I am a full time student during the week and also have a part time job, however I am available for drop in visits during the week, except for Tuesday's after 12:00pm. I can visit up to two times per day per household. My schedule allows me to drop in early in the morning before school and then stop by later in the evenings. I am also available for overnight stays full time. Tuesday’s have a little bit of conflict for, I am at school from 12:00pm to 7:00pm. If an overnight stay goes through a Tuesday someone would need to let your pet out during those hours if necessary I keep each dog’s routine as consistent as possible by closely following feeding, walking, and care instructions. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I respect my clients’ homes and make sure their dogs feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little girl, I have 2 dogs of my own. I have also helped neighbors, friends, and family walking and grooming their dogs. I currently am just focusing on my 1st year of college. I am a single mother so I wanted to still be able to spend time with my son as well as school. I only go to school Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10-12am, so I have plenty of time to make sure your pets are well taken care of. I have 2 well trained dogs, who love all animals. I also have a huge backyard with a bunch of toys for them to play.

“Emily was amazing with Binx. We were kind of nervous leaving him but he warmed up and had fun. Thank you so much for taking care of our baby boy!!”

Christina M.

“Victoria was wonderful! We met her prior to starting her drop in visits and she familiarized herself with walk procedures. Every day I received an update on her visit along with pictures of our happy doggos which made going away easier on my guilt. We came home to two happy pups.”

Kelly R.

“Thank you for taking great care of our dog!”

Michael S.

“Lillie kept me up to date and handled everything with my babies nicely. Even though they acted out she adv me that she was able to keep everything in hand and calm them down. She even went the extra mile to help my one dog eat better when he was scared. I appreciated her extra care while I was away.”

Lydia W.

“Alyssa did a 30 min drop in. She arrived early and stayed a little late and asked questions when she was unsure. I gave her limited instructions and she took the initiative to take the dogs for a walk and top up their water bowl. I was very pleased with her service and I would hire her again and recommend her to others.”

Sidney T.

“It was such a pleasure meeting Stacie, and getting to know her a little, along with hearing about her own love of animals! I so appreciated the photos she sent since my two cats are new to each other and she was totally thorough in caring for them!”

Deborah L.

“Jesse does a great job of keeping the animals on schedule and I was so relaxed all day knowing he was coming by to check on them twice while we were at a ball game in Athens.”

Whitney G.

“We were really pleased with her communication and care for our dog and would absolutely choose her again. Our dog seemed perfectly content when we returned home. She was very professional and listened to our requests.”

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets, and I truly love every moment of it. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, including seniors and energetic puppies. I always focus on keeping pets happy, safe, and comfortable, whether it's for daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own! As a college student, my schedule is flexible between classes. I can do late mornings, midday check-ins, and early evenings, with open weekends for extended care or overnights. Your pet's routine comes first. I care for pets in their own homes so they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I always follow your instructions carefully and keep your pet's routine consistent. Whether it's walks, playtime, or feeding, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

About: I have a Bachelor's degree in Zoology, and Associates degree in Science and have cared for other peoples pets since I was 17 (August, 3 2026 I'll be 22) besides caring for my parents dogs and cats. I have expireance with special care needs like diabetic pets who need to be given insulin shots, elderly dogs with oral pills they would rather not take, and bouncing puppies who need to let out alot of energy. I also have owned many animals since I was little with minimal parental help. These animals include dogs, cats, snakes, mice, rats, fish, birds, spiders, and frogs. I have experience in highschool vet care and college lab and field experience in herpetology, ornithology, and ictheology. Your fur babies will love spending their time with me when you can't be there. I just graduated college and would love to make money doing somthing I'm good at; careing for animals. Since I just graduated and don't have another job currently I'm free at most times and would love to be of service to you. I will give my undivided attention to make sure your animal is happy and well cared for. I can take your dog to the dog park, and if you want I can bring my dog over for them to play. Dog/cat's needs and feed schedules can be precise. When I was caring for my aunts Diabetic cat I had to feed half of a 1/4 cup give him his insulin shot then feed the other half, this had to happen at 6am and 6pm exactly. The shot had to go into his opposite hip every time (left morning, right afternoon). I hope to offer your pet similarly the best care imaginable.

“Heather was very friendly and conscientious. She was a wonderful sitter for our kitties.”

About: Hi! My name is Ella, and I’ve had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember. I’ll be starting veterinary school in August 2026 and have worked in veterinary medicine for the past five years in a variety of clinical and shelter settings. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, and I’m comfortable administering medications if needed. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! As an incoming veterinary student, I’m very used to maintaining a structured routine and planning my schedule carefully around animal care. Between my experience in veterinary medicine, caring for my own pets, and fostering both dogs and kittens, providing consistent care for animals is already a part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable keeping up with feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need while you’re away. I always try to keep pets as comfortable and stress-free as possible by following their normal routine closely. In a client’s home, I make sure pets stay on their regular feeding, potty, walk, play, and medication schedules while also giving them plenty of attention and companionship. In my own home, I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment where pets are closely supervised and treated like family. I also understand how important updates are, so I’m happy to send pictures and check-ins while you’re away.

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. I have an undying passion and love for animals of all ages, shapes, and sizes. I would call myself a ‘dog whisperer.’ All of my friends find it amazing that I love dogs as much as I do.Being that I also may have a bit of OCD when it comes to cleanliness— your home will not only be cared for but will be spotless upon your return! If there are plants in the home as well, I can also make sure that those get watered and cared for as needed. It’s an understatement to say I am attentive to detail. I am currently a full time student at Clemson University with a hybrid schedule and am available(flexible) on Mondays and Wednesdays for drop in visits and dog walking. I live in a house with a fully fenced in backyard. I can host no more than 2 other dogs at a time. Myself and my partner own 2 dogs. An incredibly sweet and gently Doberman and a spunky Chiweenie!

About: Hey there!! I've been around pets my whole life and absolutely LOVE them. We had a dog (dachshund) growing up as well as other animals like Rabbits and Guinea Pigs! I've had cats and dogs throughout my life as well. My bestie dog was named Sadie (corgi/husky mix) who was 17 when I had to let her go to the rainbow bridge March 2021...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do 💔 I had her since she was about 1 yr old. She had a pacemaker put in about 2 yrs prior to passing and had a great life but I miss her like crazy. I've been Petsitting a long time but over the passed couple of years it's really helped heal my heart and has truly been a blessing. Most of my clients are from word of mouth over the years but I have this to help others get in touch with me if they need some help! I live in Lake Toxaway but I have jobs anywhere from Highlands, Trillium, Cullowhee, Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Toxaway to Brevard. I mostly stay at my client's homes but I do bring some dogs to my house if it ends up being a better option. I've done puppy care and senior care as well so that doesn't phase me. I also can do medication or treatments needed. If I'm booked up for in home pet care then I can do drop ins 2x a day for cats 🐱 I can possibly offer that for dogs too but they usually need it 3x a day. So that would all depend on my availability. I work part time caretaking properties/cleaning, and childcare so I'm mostly home! When I do need to leave I'm not gone more then 3-6 hrs, depending on the job. I can travel further if I can move jobs around in my area. I'm very flexible and try to make things work if I can! I currently don’t have a fenced in yard but I will walk around my neighborhood and have a decent sized backyard. I treat your babies like they're my own so they get lots of lovin. Sometimes we go to the State Park too! If they like car rides I'll take them to check my mail or little errands.
