1. Craig W.

“Craig has been so helpful! He’s a dog lover through and through. He’s very reliable and will go the extra mile to help if need be.”


2. Syd D.
“Syd is an amazing pet parent. They’re very kind and caring to their own pets, as well as the pets of others. Syd has such a big heart, and working in a field alongside wildlife makes it even better. I would whole heartedly trust Syd with all of my animals, and I know they would receive the best care possible if they were under Syd’s care! If you’re looking for a trustworthy, kind, and friendly sitter – Syd is the one for you :)”


3. Angel R.

“Angel did a great job with walking our energetic Parsons Russell Terrier in the middle of the day, while we were stuck on conference calls. Very easy to communicate with in setting up the walks and sent several pictures and details about the walks. We plan on engaging her again.”


4. Grace F.
“Gracie does a fantastic job with our small dog Winston and out cat, Toulouse for the past 3 years. Gracie is very timely and treats our pets well. She goes above and beyond whether she is staying overnight with them or just taking Winston on a walk for us. Would 10/10 recommend Gracie for your pet sitting and dog walking needs!”

9. Connor L.
“Connor is an exceptional dog mom! While also being a full time college student in her senior year she makes sure her dog is her number one priority. I was by her side when Stevie was adopted and ever since he fell into her life she has taken good and loving care of him. Not only loving, Connor is attentive and responsible when bringing Stevie in public. She is the ideal pet parent!!”

About: Ive been a dog mom for almost three years now! I have a beautiful lab that I got when she was two months old, she’s almost three! My roommates have cats i help take care of. I’ve grown up with dogs and farm animals! I am available most days of the week at any time! I can fit to your pets needs however they may be. I am a full time student but have a pretty flexible schedule! I currently live in a house with a decent size yard! It is not fenced in but not on a main road! I like to leave my clients place the same or better than it was before me!


11. Christy S.

“Christy was available right away, same day and I am so thankful. I work a hybrid schedule and was called into the office last minute. We have a new puppy and yesterday was the first day he was home by himself I needed someone to give him a walk and a little exercise. Christy was very prompt in her response she sent me beautiful pictures and roll with the punches as we could not find the collar or leash. Thank you so much Christy look forward to using you in the future”


12. Kayla B.
About: I have owned cats and dogs my whole life so I have experience caring for them. I have raised litters of kittens from birth multiple times. I also am getting a degree in wildlife rehabilitation which is helpful in pet care because I have experience with messy situations, baby animals and unexpected circumstances! I mostly pet sit on break, so if I’m sitting during that time my schedule is very flexible and can mold to the owners needs. If I’m at school I available more often for early morning/ late night care and overnights. I unfortunately cannot offer up my own home/ dorm but would do my best at the client’s home. I am more than willing to spend extra time with pets and ensure they are cared for and happy.


13. Macayla K.
“Macayla is great! She has dog sat for me multiple times and she did great! I would definitely recommend her and I’ll definitely go with her again.”


14. Hailie K.

“Hailie did a wonderful job with Vinny and Rocky. Vinny being a pup is hard to wear out, but she did a great job. We will use her again I am sure!”


15. Emelia S.

“Emelia was great. Very communicative, always timely. She was flexible and sweet to my little doggie. I really enjoyed Emelia and would have continued using her, however we moved. I highly recommend her.”


16. Lauren L.
“Prompt walk, dog very happy. She loves Lauren. Will definitely book again!”


17. Torrin W.
“Torrin used to work at my vet office where he gave excellent care to my young pup and my elderly dog. I hired him to do at home visits with my elderly dog to help him keep his nails trimmed and he would take both of my dogs on walks. They were always so excited to see him!”


18. Mary Margaret W.
About: I am 23 graduate student at from Appalachian State University. I have my BS in Psychology and a minor in Special Education. Fun fact I took a dog psychology class last semester and learned all about the psychology and emotions of a dog. I am currently in Boone working on my Masters and Specialist degree in School Psychology. My class schedule has a lot of gaps during the day so I have a wide availability during the week and I always have early morning and afternoon availability. I have been pet sitting for about 8 years now and love it! I really enjoy working with animals and put a lot of effort into making sure each each animal is properly cared for! I have a lot of experience in dog walking and at home pet visits. I also have had experience in pet boarding and house sitting; both daytime and overnight. I have a English Springer Spaniel that I love very much so I understand that pets are really like a part of the family :) While I can accept house sitting, dog boarding at my apartment tends to work better with my schedule and I am more likely to be able to accept! I have classes during the week but have time in between and after to dog sit/ dog walk and am available to sit most evenings and mornings! I almost always have availability for dog boarding :) When carrying for pets in their home I always make sure to follow all the instruction given from their owner on how to take care of them!


19. Calli P.
“Calli has been my go-to sitter for every vacation! I have a Great Dane, pit bull terrier, and a cat. All three of them absolutely adore her and even our cat, who hates EVERYONE, loves Calli. She’s always reliable and I can always count on her to love on my babies while I’m away.”


20. Sarah J.

“Sarah is reliable and very kind to our pup! Thank you for taking him on a long walk to the creek!”
