About: From caring for beta fish and guinea pigs at a young age to looking after pit bulls and dogs of all sizes, I’ve loved caring for animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I quickly became the neighborhood pet sitter, and even now as an adult, I’m often the person friends and neighbors call for walks, drop-ins, and reliable pet care. I provide attentive, dependable care and work to create a safe, comfortable, and loving experience for every pet I watch. Because I genuinely love animals and connect with them easily, I focus on giving pets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while helping them feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away. I also value communication and make sure owners feel informed and reassured through regular updates, photos, and messages. My experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities has helped me build trust with both pets and their owners, ensuring every dog feels happy, safe, and well cared for. You can expect flexible scheduling and dependable care, with open availability on Fridays and remote workdays throughout the week that make me available for drop-ins, walks, and extra attention for your pets. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets in my apartment, which has access to dog parks and nearby walking trails for exercise and playtime. I make sure pets stay on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, play, and plenty of attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining clear communication with owners through updates and photos. My priority is always making pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Destiny has great communication and Olivia absolutely loves her! I’m so grateful she could check on my girl in my absence! Will certainly book with her again!”

“My little girl was taken care of and got to stretch her legs mid day! Definitely gave me so much peace of mind to have such a kind hearted person care for my best friend.”

About: I’ve been around dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was six years old, having grown up with a variety of breeds. For the past 8 years, I’ve been actively pet sitting and dog walking, caring for everything from tiny terriers to giant breeds. I currently have a large dog of my own with a big personality and unpredictable behaviors, so I’m very comfortable handling excitable, quirky, or high-energy pets. I’m also experienced with administering medications—oral, topical or injections—as my own pup requires daily meds. Whether your dog needs a calm presence or someone who can match their playful energy, I’m here to provide safe, reliable, and loving care. I truly love working with dogs and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. As a full-time student with a flexible schedule, I can easily accommodate daytime visits, walks, and special needs. I have some days where I am busier than others, however I still manage my time well. I am available for drop ins, daily walks, and/or spending a little extra time with those who need it (or want it of course). Your pets will be in great hands!
“Hannah did a great job with our pets. She sent the best photos and gave them plenty of attention! We appreciate the updates and would definitely use her again! 😊”

“Shin provides excellent service, great communication, and is very flexible. My two cats absolutely adore her as well 🥰 I’ve booked with Shin several times, and the service is always amazing. I’ll definitely continue using her services, she’s awesome!”

“I can't say enough good things about Bree! Leaving my cat is always stressful, especially since she needs medication twice a day. But Bree was absolutely amazing. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease. While I was away, Bree sent me regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Piper's well-being. More importantly, she administered Piper's medication perfectly, without any issues. I highly recommend bree to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced cat sitter. She went above and beyond, and I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

“Elizabeth is a real life saver. We had gone out of town and left our pets with a sitter, but the sitter wasn’t able to give our elder cat our heart medicine. We reached out to Elizabeth and she was able to go and give the medicine without any issues and spent some time with our pets to make sure they weren’t lonely while our sitter was in school. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future when we go out of town!”

“Sage is a great pet sitter! Our two cats took to her quickly during the meeting, and she provided great updates each visit. Sage was also very communicative while cat sitting during a bad thunderstorm, helping make sure the babies were okay if power went out. Our home and cat areas were clean and well-kept when we returned. Thank you, Sage!!”

“Jessica did an amazing job and was super attentive to my boys. Even my one one super skittish cat felt comfortable around her! I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”


About: I’ve been a dog owner and animal lover for over 20 years and have cared for 6 dogs of my own throughout that time. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and loving to care for your pets while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication routines, or just extra cuddles and attention, I treat every pet like family. I’m experienced with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved I’m available for weekend care. I love long walks and lots of snuggles. I work in Statesville thru the week and am not available M-F I prefer to come to your house for all care. My dogs are well cared for and very spoiled. I will treat your dog like my own.
“Sheyla is such a a sweetheart and was good to & with my baby, she even brought him a little gift. I had a last minute trip come up and she really came through for me. Would definitely recommend her. And I'm sure my little guy would be thrilled to see her again ✨”

“Stevie is absolutely fantastic. It is very obvious that she cares about our dogs with each interaction. She more often than not stays longer than she has to just so the dogs get some extra hang time. Stevie makes it so I can actually stop worrying about my pups while I’m away. She sends loads of great photos every time with a little paragraph telling me about the drop in. 10/10 would recommend”
“I loved and appreciated Paige’s updates throughout her visits to my cats, and loved her energy when we first met. I know she gave my girls lots of attention and look forward to working with her again!”


About: I grew up around dogs and have always loved being around animals. Taking care of pets has been a normal part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I also have hands-on experience helping with a family pet sitting business, where I assisted with feeding, walking, and general care. That experience taught me how important it is to be reliable, attentive, and patient with every pet. Right now, I live in an apartment, so I don’t currently have a dog or cat of my own, but I do care for two leopard geckos and a chameleon, so I’m very used to maintaining consistent care routines and paying attention to small details in animal behavior and health. I’m currently a fourth year college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to pet care. I am taking online classes during the summer, so I’m available most weekdays and weekends, and I can work around your pet’s routine for visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I prioritize reliability and clear communication, so you can feel confident your pet is being cared for exactly as requested. I aim to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your furry friend feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or litter care, because I know how important consistency is for both dogs and cats. I always make sure your home stays safe and secure, and I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and well-being. As a biology student, I’m very detail-oriented and attentive to even small changes. I’ll treat your furry friend like my own, with lots of patience, care, and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away.

I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, from high-energy puppies to calm senior pets. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, and sticking to each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious pets and take the time to build trust so they feel safe with me. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety, happiness, and well-being. Whether it’s going on walks, giving lots of love and attention, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel cared for while you’re away I’m home most of the day, so pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I’m able to give pets lots of attention, keep them on their normal schedule, and make sure they’re never left alone for long.

I stick closely to their routine so they feel comfortable, whether that’s feeding times, walks, or just their usual habits. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and make sure everything stays clean and organized. I also send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. If pets are in my home, they’ll get lots of attention, playtime, and a calm, safe environment where they can relax. I’m home most of the day, so they’re rarely alone and always well cared for.
