1. John B.
“John has looked after my dog twice now and has done an amazing job. He has a big fenced in yard and a pet friendly home. My dog is 16 years old and is not the easiest to care for sometimes. He has accidents and difficulty getting up and down the stairs. John has been so patient and understanding. Leaving your dog with someone else knowing that they can have accidents is hard. I never want to burden someone with that but sometimes I need a sitter and finding a good one is important. I highly recommend John. He sends regular updates a pictures to let me know how the stay is going.”
2. Kaycee & Chris N.
“I cannot say enough nice things about Kaycee. She loved my dogs like they were her own and they came home so happy and exhausted from all the playing. She sent me loads of pictures of my boys having tons of fun at her house. She's amazing and I've already rebooked her for our next trip. I wish there were more than five stars.”
3. Eric C.
“Communication was great! For our first time we felt so comfortable leaving our baby! I was a nervous wreck but was constantly comforted with messages and pictures! She was in great hands during our absence. When we left she was so excited to see us but also so sad to leave her new family. Looking forward to future visits. Thank you for taking great care of our girl and for being so flexible!”

We appreciate you.”

I will use her anytime I can and highly recommend. Thank you so much kelsi!!”

“Barbara took wonderful care of my old lady hound and my sister’s high-energy lab mix. She sent pictures and updates and went so far above and beyond what we expected.

15. Theresa F.
“When I was looking for a pet sitter for our senior dog and read the reviews of Theresa and her family I knew she would love our fur baby, Holly, as much as her own family. Thanks to Theresa we were able to enjoy our week in Duck, NC knowing Holly was close by. She sent us daily photos of Holly, which also confirmed our decision to have her stay with Theresa. I can’t thank her enough for patience and love this week! If you’re looking for a pet sitter in OBX who will love your pet as much as you do... I highly recommend Theresa!”
16. Tracy H.
“I was coming to NC from out of state for a family vacation and needed a last minute dog sitter because mine had back out last minute. Tracy responded so quick and was able to help me out. Tracy was so good with my dogs! One of my dogs is a little more shy than the other and I could tell when I picked them up she had warmed right up to Tracy. She sent photos everyday and gave me updates. Her dogs and my dogs got along great. She had a great size yard for them to play in.”
17. Kristin O.
“Kristin was amazing with Fisher. Last minute booking and she was very accommodating. He is so tired from all the fun play over the weekend! Definitely would recommend and use again! Thank you Kristin, Fisher is one happy tired pup! ?”
18. Rebecca R.
“Rebecca was responsive before during and after the stay. She took great care of our dog Maya. Rebecca and her boyfriend took her on many walks and spent plenty of time playing with her. I couldn't have asked for more. I will call on her again the next time we are staying in the area and need a sitter.”
19. Rose N.
“I can’t even begin to express how amazing Rose is and was to my panda for the week we were at the beach. Last minute I had to find petcare for our fur child. I came across Rose, she replied promptly, professionally, and reassured me with all the things I needed to hear to feel comfortable leaving our dog. We received pics everyday of panda !! Her farm and space for the dogs is incredible. We were convinced Panda was going to turn Into a farm pup and for sure had more fun there than with us at the beach haha! The world needs more humans like Rose. We can’t wait to visit next year when we are in town again :) thank you for loving our fur baby like your own it means the world to us !”

About: Hello! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in high school. When my parents brought me home from the hospital as a newborn, I was greeted by a basset hound. Since then, I have spent everyday with a basset! However, I have experience with dogs all ages and sizes. I love to walk and be outside but also enjoy some snuggle time! I work remotely so I am relatively flexible. I usually take a lunch break (sometime between 11 and 1) so that would be a perfect time to play with your pet! I am also available mornings (6-8:30am) and evenings (4:30-9pm) after typical working hours. I am more flexible on weekends with no major commitments. We have a fenced in yard and grass for dogs to play on. We allow dogs on the first floor of our home in any room. Our dog sleeps in a mudroom not in a crate but we do have a crate.
