“Kyle was a very conscientious caregiver to our dog. He showed up twice a day (even in the rain) to walk our dog at my dad‘s house. He even went above and beyond by applying an antibiotic to her tail and putting the donut/tail guard on her every night. I strongly recommend Kyle to anyone needing thisservice.”
About: I've been taking care of my neighborhood dogs since retirement. We keep each other happy and active. I've cared for puppies, senior dogs and special needs dogs. I've taken them to physical therapy appointments, veterinarian appointments and appointments at the School of Veterinarian Medicine at North Carolina State University. I've become lifelong friends with the dogs AND their parents. It's been a very rewarding second career that I love! I have no strict schedule, so I'm available day and night. I have no problem working around your schedule. My husband is retired also. So 95% of the time someone is home when I board dogs at our house. I have a fenced in yard and my house is set up to give your dog it's own space inside or outside if he/she needs some time alone away from my very friendly little dogs. If you need me to stay at your house, I'll follow all the instructions you communicate.

“Beth was amazing! Our fur baby instantly fell in love with her. She was prompt for every walk. After the second walk Bella was actually sitting by the window looking for her next visit, super cute :) She sent detailed information and pictures from each stroll. Highly recommend Beth for any petsitting needs.”

My hope is to always bring the owner a peace of mind along with the animal an a genuine happiness at the end of the day so that every animal and owner can feel at peace. Overnight stays I hope to just give peace at mind to Owners and animals, if there are every any concerns I will always send photos of the animals doing daily things at their usual times.

This was my first time using this service, and I am very happy. Jolynn showed up not only on time, but early! She did everything that was promised and the dogs really seemed to take to her right away. Will definitely be booking again and referring her to my friends.
