“Took the time to be patient with my very fearful dog. Reliable and did extra meet and greet to get both of my dogs used to her. Very flexible with availability. Would recommend!!”

About: I’ve had multiple pets throughout my life whom I loved and took care of well through all stages of their lives. I’ve worked with dogs on basic commands and cared for my dog that passed from years of cancer. Most of my care was toward my own pets, but I love all animals! I am currently home for the summer, and I have a pretty open schedule to walk, check in on, and pet sit! My schedule is very flexible to work with whatever time I’m needed. I have a fenced in yard with grass, as well as a pool in the backyard. I no longer have any pets of my own, but many toys!

About: My name is allie and I am going into my junior year at Elon University as a Psychology major and Business Administration minor. I have a cat who is 13 and a dog who is 9. I have adored taking care and spending time with animals for as long as I can remember. I am on summer break so I will be available almost anytime during the summer. Although I go back to school August 31st, I will notify of any times I will be unavailable ahead of time. I have a fenced yard as well as a dog and a cat to keep your pets company. I have a crate which can fit small-medium dogs. I also have lots of delicious treats!

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life, but started caring for them on my own since I was 10 years old. As I got older, I was around cats more and more, and now I have a great love for both pets!! My experience includes walks, potty breaks, playtime, overnighting with pets, senior care, and caring for high energy dogs. I often work on the weekends and Wednesday nights, but like to stay busy during the week. Staying busy mostly means being active and running errands. Pet care is a perfect opportunity for me to fill in the gaps! I will visit the pets as much as needed, feed them when advised to, pet them and play with them, and take them on nice, relaxing walks.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was 10. I’ve always treated pets like family and understand how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m experienced with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and giving dogs plenty of attention and patience. I’m also comfortable caring for energetic dogs and making sure they get the exercise and stimulation they need. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy being around animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I have flexibility in my schedule, which allows me to dedicate time throughout the day to walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I’m comfortable building my day around a pet’s individual routine and making sure they don’t feel rushed or overlooked. Whether that means a morning walk, midday check-in, some playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’m able to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and welcome. I keep a clean and calm environment, follow their normal feeding and bathroom routines, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I also take time to learn each pet’s personality and respect their individual comfort level. Whether they’re energetic and playful or prefer to relax and stay close to me, I want them to feel like they’re in a home where they’re genuinely cared for.

About: I have grown up around dogs my whole life and I absolutely love caring for them. I have not only cared for my own dogs but I have worked at a vet clinic where I got to care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. I have experience in feeding, giving medicine, sick care, etc. I am available to provide pet care Thursdays Fridays Saturdays and Sundays for most of the day! I am available to drop in and give walks or stay with them and give them some company! I can ensure that your fur baby is feed, happy, and entertained while I am with them! I can just drop in or I can give them company and have some play time!

About: I have been pet sitting for over six years and have cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience with a wide variety of animals, ranging from horses and lizards to dogs and cats. I currently have two dogs of my own, one is 4 years old and the other is 12. I understand the different needs pets may have at every stage of life. I am comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments and can administer oral medications when needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I recently graduated from Fairfield University with my nursing degree and have begun my career as an emergency department nurse. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. You can count on me to be responsible, attentive, and dependable when caring for your pets. I will always make sure your pet has a clean, safe, and comfortable environment while in my care. When I arrive, I will ensure they have everything they need, including fresh water, food, exercise, and plenty of attention. Before I leave, I will make sure your home is tidy, your pet is safe, happy and comfortable. I will be sure to follow any instructions given to me prior to the visit. I will care for your pet as if they were my own and provide regular updates.

About: With over 18 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and even guinea pigs, animals have always been the center of my life. I am a certified dog trainer through ABC (Animal Behavior College), where I completed coursework and hands-on mentorship training. My first Jack Russell, full of energy and determination, inspired me to become a trainer and deepened my passion for understanding animal behavior. Today, I share my home with a younger, playful pack, including another Jack Russell, and I’ve learned the importance of balancing order, safety, and discipline with letting dogs simply enjoy being dogs. I believe younger dogs benefit from observation, gentle guidance, and time to grow before intense training, so my focus is always on safe, positive, and enriching experiences. I use equipment designed for safety — such as secure belt leashes — to make sure dogs are comfortable and protected on walks. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, or high-maintenance small breeds, I have the hands-on experience to give each pet the right level of care and attention. My senior dog, who recently passed after nearly 17 years by my side, required 24/7 care during her final year. That experience taught me patience, vigilance, and the deep responsibility of caring for animals at every stage of life. Our home is designed with pets in mind — safe, welcoming, and filled with love. With a friendly resident pack, dogs here need to enjoy the company of other dogs to feel at home. Small dogs are my specialty, but I welcome pups of all kinds and treat every animal as if they were my own. The only challenge you might face? Your dog may not want to go home. My partner and I both work from home, so we’re with our dogs throughout the day. We balance our time between working indoors and enjoying the outdoors when the weather is nice, with walks and dog park visits built into our mornings and evenings. We also enjoy picnics, hikes, and other activities that include our pets, since they’re truly part of our everyday life. None of our animals are ever crated — they’re free to be with us and part of our routine at all times. We have three secure, fenced yard areas designed for different activities. One area is set aside for bathroom breaks, where pets can go on their own. The other two yards are used for supervised playtime. Inside, our dogs have access to two levels of the home. The lower level is the cat zone, and the cats also enjoy access to one of the fenced yards. All pets have free range within their spaces and spend the day with me or my partner, so they are always supervised and cared for. We don’t crate any of our own pets — they are all very friendly and used to being around both cats and dogs. I’m a very hands-on, “helicopter” type fur mom — safety, love, and care are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are mentally stimulated, and I’m always checking for ticks or any health concerns. I shared my life with two beloved dogs for nearly 17 and 15 years, and losing them a few years ago was heartbreaking. They traveled everywhere with me and showed me the depth of the bond we share with animals. Caring for pets is my greatest passion, and I feel honored every day to be in their company. I will do whatever is required to keep your animals happy and cared for as if they were my own. I will always follow your instructions closely — from feeding to routines — and will never do anything that isn’t approved by you. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and happiness come first.

About: My husband and I have been passionate dog lovers our entire lives, caring for dogs from childhood all the way through adulthood. We understand the bond between dogs and their owners, which is why we treat every dog like a part of our family. From playful pups to senior companions, we’ve always provided a loving, safe, and comfortable environment for our furry friends. With years of experience, including administering medications when needed, you can trust that your dog will be in the best hands, surrounded by love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs! I work from home Monday through Friday, from 8am to 6pm, so I'm always available to care for your pet throughout the day. I’m only gone for short periods, like running errands or attending appointments, but I’m always close by and quick to return. Your dog will never be left alone for long, and I’m here to give them constant attention, playtime, and love while you’re away! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priority, and I’ve made sure my home is a perfect place for them to feel at ease. With a fully fenced backyard and a dog door, your pup can come and go as they please, enjoying the fresh air and outdoor playtime whenever they want. I’ve created a cozy, fun space where your dog can feel right at home, whether they're chasing their tail outside or lounging indoors. It’s a secure, loving environment where your dog can relax, explore, and have a blast!

About: Hello! My name is Brittney and I have been caring for dogs and many other animals since I was a young kid.

I am primarily home during the summer months and my boyfriend also lives and works from home so we are regularly around most of the day! All needs of the pet depend on each one. I am adaptable and eager to work with what your specific pet needs. I am happy to exercise, play, administer meds, etc.

“McKenzie was fantastic while I was away on vacation, taking great care of my two cats and dog. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly gave each pet the attention they needed. I came home to happy, well-cared-for animals and total peace of mind. I’d absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her!”

Clare O.

“Alan is an incredibly thoughtful and considerate pet sitter. We went on vacation for a couple of weeks and were worry-free due to Alan’s responsive communication and reliability. It’s clear he takes his role seriously. We are so grateful to have hired him. He is a trustworthy and kind individual!”

Nicholas A.

“Dustin is the absolute best! It’s only because of him I was able to leave for two weeks and enjoy time with my loved ones for the holidays. He is trustworthy, consistent, and reliable. He was patient with my girl, Marshmallow, and accommodated to her needs. My family and I are so grateful for Dustin, and I plan to rebook him in the future.”

About: I've had pets for 50 years. Have dogs and cats. Work with TNR in my community. Care for feral colonies. Can administrator medication, IV fluids and sub q injections.

About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands-on experience dog sitting, along with a deep sense of responsibility and care. I truly love animals and bring that same energy to every pet I look after. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including seniors who need gentle, attentive support. I also have experience caring for elderly people, including my own grandmother, which has taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of routines. Whether it’s administering medication, giving extra cuddles, or sticking to a strict schedule, I’m all in when it comes to compassionate care. It fits into my daily and weekly schedule because I’m a stay at home dad with a lot of time on my schedule that would enjoy the company of a fur friend around that can keep me busy!! When pets stay in my home, I treat them like part of the family. I make sure they have a cozy spot to relax, stick to their regular routine as much as possible, and give them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I keep my space clean, safe, and calm so they can feel comfortable, whether they’re staying for a day or a whole week. My goal is to make it feel like a second home for them. Also when taking them out I have a fenced yard as well as a front gate so there’s no running away or escaping on my watch!
