“FROM DEMI C.- We kept our fingers crossed and tried a pet sitter for the first time to stay at our home. During the initial Meet & Greet, when our usually timid-of-strangers feline fur babies came out on their own to see Dominique—I felt she was the right choice. Loved her attention to detail! Loved the free-flowing communication during the time we were away. I had complete peace of mind while we were on our beach vacation! FROM SHEILA C. - She's truly a cat whisperer. Very attentive, constant and frequent photos & updates on how our babies were doing. Also, very professional. We liked her immediately after the interview. We are now her clients! We plan to leave a generous tip.”
“This is either the 3rd or 4th time Jeffery has stayed with our critters in our home. He is just SO reliable, respectful, professional, and we have no worries when we're away. Our dogs and cat love his calm nature and that's exactly what our reactive boy needs. I hope we can continue to have Jeffery sit for us for years to come! I am just so grateful to have someone we can trust in our home with our kiddos.”
“Teresa was so great! She gave Bella lots of good walks and cuddles and was great about communicating with us and sending us lots of photos and updates. We would recommend her 100%!”

“Karena was a wonderful pet sitter for us! Our usually skittish chihuahua mix even came to like sitting by jet and getting pets. Her calm caring energy really helps anxious dogs! Karena also sent pics and videos throughout our booking which was very reassuring. Overall, we highly recommend her!”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with a calm, caring nature. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just some cozy couch time, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and treat every dog like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family member, so I always go the extra mile to provide updates, photos, and peace of mind. Puppies are welcomed! I’d be more than happy to maintain training exercises during their stay. I have a flexible hybrid work schedule. I choose which two days that I go into office. Depending on the days requested for service, I can make create my schedule based on your needs. I treat your home with respect and keep your dog’s routine as consistent as possible. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, whether it’s meals, walks, medications, or bedtime rituals. So your pup stays happy and stress-free.
About: I’ve had to opportunity to take care of various kinds of cats and dogs for neighbors and friends. I am very reliable and punctual - as I understand that your best friend deserves the best care! I currently work 7-3:30 so I have plenty of time in early mornings and afternoons/evenings to hang out with your pet and show them the love and care that they deserve while you are away! I care for pets in client’s home by following any list given to make sure your pet’s needs come first, and I make sure to communicate with the owner! I love to send pictures to keep you updated as well.
About: I have been lovin and livin with animals ever since I was a little girl. I used to live on a mini farm in 2005 and loved helping my parents out with the animals. We had goats, sheep, horses, fish, dogs, and cats. I even started riding horses when I was 4 years old! Unfortunately, my mom had a stroke and we had to move & sell a lot of the animals. Because she is handicapped, I have helped my mom with the animals since then. In 2020, I moved to Virginia to completely my bachelor’s degree in Strategic Communications at Liberty University. While in college, I walked dogs and pet sat for people. This was really exciting for me because I wasn’t allowed to have my dog with me in the apartment. From April-December of 2023, I traveled solo across the east coast of the U.S. by pet sitting for people, and in return, I got a free place to stay! This was an incredible experience and I made so many furry friends along the way. I am now living in Charlotte, NC and I work remotely as a Social Media Manager (which means I get to do my work in my fuzzy slippers whenever I want). My schedule is super flexible and I’m almost always available for last minute (I like to say spontaneous) plans. Please reach out if you have any questions! I work remotely so my schedule is very flexible. I usually go to the gym in the morning and then work whenever I want. But I am willing to adjust my daily schedule to fit your wants and needs. I think the most important part of owning any pet is to make sure they feel loved (aside from food and water of course). I love to spend quality time with pets and I am willing to take your pets on car rides and on plenty of walks. It’s very important that our pets aren’t cooped up inside with nobody to play with. Where’s the fun in that?!

Carleigh B.
“I’ve known Carleigh for years and she has always been great with animals. She’s spent a lot of time around my dogs (a pit mix and a lab mix) and she’s helped me take care of them many times. Whether it was taking them out for walks, keeping them company, or helping out when I was busy or out of town, she’s always been reliable and caring. She is gentle, kind, and really pays attention to how the animals are doing. My dogs both trusted her and were always excited to see her. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands when I couldn’t be there. She truly cares about animals, and it shows in the way she interacts with them. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
Juliana C.
“Juliana stayed with our cat, Annabelle, in our home, for a month, while we were in Florida. She was wonderful with Annabelle. She took excellent care of her, as well as taking care of our plants, bringing in the mail, and taking the garbage and recycling out, as scheduled. She communicated with us regularly and sent us photos of Annabelle. Unfortunately, our heat stopped working, and she calmly called us, and was there to receive the repairman, twice! She rolled with the situation and was very responsible with all aspects of staying in and caring for Annabelle and our home. We would definitely welcome having her back! She's a lovely person.”
