Pet Sitting Oak Forest

About: I’ve taken care of a dog ever since I’ve got my first one when I was eight, and now that I’m older and living on my own I have my own dog who is almost 3, who still acts just like a puppy. Since joining Rover, I have taken care of a variety of different dogs of all breeds, and sizes with all kinds of different needs. Im currently only doing Rover so im available full time! I enjoy going out during the day and running errands so I'm more available at night and can provide your baby with as much love and attention as they want!! No matter what neighborhood you may live in, I promise your pets will always be safe with me, I am very observant and watchful of pets and I always do my best to make sure that they are very well taken care of as if they are my own.

“Teresa W did an awesome job with my chihuahua mix, Bree. She met her and Bree was fine but when she came to take her out she hid and growled. Bree eventually came around and Teresa was able to take her out. Teresa also gave Bree the meds she needed on time. She kept me updated on Bree’s bronchitis and breathing and took very good care of her. Teresa also took care of the 2 rabbits I have. She did a fantastic job. I definitely will call her again for Bree if she’s up to it.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid. It comes natural to me. Because I work from home, your dog won’t be left alone all day. They will get consistent attention and supervision. I currently offer house sitting, doggy daycare, and dog walking, and I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have a special soft spot for big, goofy pitties, but every pup is welcome. I’m attentive, patient, and tuned in to each dog’s individual needs. whether that’s walks, playtime or cuddle breaks. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, happy, and right at home. Working from home allows for consistent potty breaks, feeding, walks, playtime and supervision. I have flexibility on the weekends as well. I can accommodate longer stays. I provide a calm, secure, and attentive environment whether pets are in my home or yours. I live in a house with a large yard for safe outdoor time, and I’m mindful of slow, respectful introductions since I also have a cat. In clients’ homes, I follow care instructions closely to maintain your pet’s routine, comfort, and safety — treating your space and your pet with the same respect I would my own.

“Mackenzie did a fantastic job taking care of my dog! Not only was she a great communicator, sending pictures and updates, but she went above and beyond in her care for my dog Nova. I was able to trust her completely and had no worries while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their pets and I personally plan to use her again!!”

“Chelsea was wonderful with my cat and made my stay away from my furry family member less stressful. Chelsea is so caring and loving, my cat immediately loved her. I will book again with Chelsea in the near future.”

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!

About: Hello, my name is Lara. I am a long-time educator with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools with 22 years of experience teaching at the elementary and middle school levels. I have lived in the Charlotte area for 38 years and know how important it is to have people who you can trust and rely on in your circle. As a teacher, responsibility, professionalism, communication and timeliness are a part of who I am every day. I bring that level of professionalism to every aspect of house sitting and pet sitting. I have raised two children in Charlotte and currently have two human grandchildren, four dog grands, two cat grands and two lizard grands. Throughout the years I have cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, horses, ferrets and pet mice. I am comfortable with feeding routines, long or short walks, administering basic care, providing enrichment, cleaning litter boxes and providing companionship while you are away. I work Monday through Friday, 7:30 to 5:00, in the Concord Mills area. Due to my teaching schedule I would be best suited for: Overnight house sitting Vacation pet sitting Early morning and evening pet care Weekend care Pets that are comfortable being alone during a standard workday I currently work full time with a consistent schedule every day of the week. I get up at 5:00 am and at work by 7:30. My mornings are generally time to prepare for the day ahead and would include a walk if desired, feeding, enrichment and time for cuddles if needed. I return at the end of my work day and will provide a walk, enrichment based on your pet’s preferences, feeding and any needed cleaning. If I am staying at your home there will be additional time before the bedtime routine for time spent together. My general rule for care is always to be safe first and foremost. That means all doors, gates and fences checked when in an area. The yard is checked for safety before we go outside and walks are always on leash with a back up leash for emergencies. I follow your pet’s schedule and your house rules. I am at your home to keep your pet safe and comfortable until you return. This includes multiple times that I will communicate with you daily. Your pet’s safety, comfort and your peace of mind are my goals.

About: I have spent most of my 36 years caring for animals of all species. As a pet owner of 7 fur babies, one quilled and several feathered friends, I put pet care at the top of my list. As a business owner, working from home I have plenty of time to devote to committing to caring for your pets. My schedule is flexible. Every pet and pet owner has their own unique preferences and needs. I will care for someone else’s pets following specific instructions requested. Beyond a provided guideline, I will pay attention to each pets body language and environmental need. I will provide safe and thorough assistance.

“She took great care of my cat while I was away. She sent fantastic updates, which reassured me greatly that he was doing well. Thank you Tawni!”
