About: I was raised on a farm in PA and have been around & cared for animals my entire life. I'd love to help you care for your fur babies! I have availability most days unless we are away on vacation. I work outside the home, but my hours are flexible. I can usually work with your schedule, with enough notice in advance. I try to stay within 50 miles of my house, but feel free to inquire for house sitting if you live farther away. I may be able to accommodate, but additional cost may be added depending on location. I will also consider other animal care. Just contact me for price and details. I have experience with horses, pigs, chickens, goats, to name a few. House sitting/overnight care in your home: I would be at your home overnight a minimum of 12 hours, but i do work outside the home, so i may be gone 4-8 hours during the day. Walks/potty breaks will be within a 2 hour window of requested time If requesting care in our home (boarding) pets would need to be non shedding. I would limit it to 1 or 2 additional dogs and a meet and greet with my labradoodle would be required first to make sure they are compatible.
About: I've taken care of puppies, handled diaper changing for a physically handicapped dog, administered medications and daily vitamins, walked multiple dogs at a time, and have handled emergency vet visits for a dog with a seizure disorder. I truly enjoy spending time caring and playing with animals, they add so much to my life. I am embarking on a new adventure, just having moved here to North Carolina. Besides being with my family, spending time in nature, and caring for our furry family members at home-the rest of my time will hopefully be spent caring for your furry loved ones. I wouldn't be able to board in my own home, but can definitely do a stellar job caring for your animals in any way that is needed.

“Recently starting using Rover and Terri has been the only dog walker I've used on this site. She has truly been amazing and definitely puts me at ease knowing that my Sadie is being taken great care of while I'm away at work each day. I cannot express how much I would highly recommend her service and do not know what I'd do without her!! My dog Sadie (and even my cat Milo) absolutely adore her and Sadie always has a big smile when Terri comes to visit her. Thank you so much Terri!!”
About: My name is Charity and I am a reliable and responsible dog sitter and walker. I absolutely love all animals, ESPECIALLY dogs and I tend to get along with them very well. I have been dog sitting for close friends for about a year now and am ready to open up for more people. I am currently working a part time job at and am looking for ways to make a little extra money on my free time and spend time with my favorite furry animals. I will follow any requests such as feeding, playtime, or potty requests. It is a top priority of mine to follow all directions from the dog owner while also giving the dog the love and attention they need.
About: I raised a puppy from 4 weeks old. I also have a cat that I raise and have been raising since she was less than a year old.

About: I have always had a dog that I could share adventures with. I know the feeling when you are busy with work and need a reliable dog walker or house sitter that will care for your dog just as you would. Now that I have time, I would like to help others with that. I am available to housesit your dog most any weekend and beginning June 1 through August 15th, I am available to house sit most anytime. I have been a teacher for 20 years, so safety is always at the center of each decision. If I were caring for a dog in another family's home, I would be mindful of security, house alarms, locks, and also what the pet could possibly get into inside the home that could be dangerous. I would follow all requests and procedures in the home indicated by the family.
