About: I have been taking care of my dogs and my family members dogs from a young age. I have grown up around dogs and cats and animals have become a passion of mine. I currently have 4 dogs but no cats at the moment. I’m also currently taking an online dog training class in order to get my certificate in dog training.

I can walk dogs, bathe dogs, cut nails on calm dogs, feed and water dogs, give medications, clean cat litter boxes, and play with your pet.
“Grace provided a purrrfect cat sitting experience! This was our first time leaving our dear Stella behind for more than a day or two so we were initially very nervous about the whole thing. Now we couldn't be happier that we decided to go with Grace for our cat sitting needs! Her communication was impeccable throughout the entire process and I received wonderful updates complete with adorable photos after every visit. She was punctual, reliable, and treated our home with the utmost respect. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a top-notch cat sitter.”
“She was amazing! And sent great videos of my baby. Wil call again.”
About: I'm the old school type of handler. I've learned that the human to animal bond is essential to each of us. I do things with your dogs that require full trust. I understand the responsibility involved in caring for them. I usually remain armed when I walk your pups. I also wear a vest containing emergency medical supplies, extra slip leads, dog treats, and large reflective letters "K-9" on the back for everyone approaching from behind to be aware. While walking, I'm keeping constant situational awareness. I'm confident in my ability to handle any situation that may present itself. I do work with aggressive dogs and other behavior issues. THERE ARE NO BAD DOGS, is my belief. Let's address the problem of pet obesity now. I've started offering a dog jog for morning and afternoon appointments. I use an electric trike to gradually get your dog fit as it gets faster and further as we go. Depending on the physical shape, it may need to work up to the trike. Either way, the fat will become muscle soon and the dog will be healthier with this exercise. I currently walk and train in St. James Plantation. I'd like to stay near home. I'm kinda picky about the people I work with. Hopefully you are too. 🐩 🐕 🐶 🦮 🐕🦺 🐈 I'm actually very flexible. The clients I have are very understanding and respectful of my time. Likewise, if something unexpected comes up, I understand. I want to be the one who comes to mind when that next emergency hits you, and you need someone who will drop everything for you and come save the day! I want to be closer than family for you. People have different ideas about the way they raise their pets. It's important to me that I know everything I can about your bond with your pets. Keeping the established routine is always a priority. I take notes and execute a plan based on what you want.
“Excellent, reliable care provided. Pet was well taken care of, with good socialization expeirnece.”
“Rachel seems to be a "cat whisperer", at least for my cats. My "grouchy cat" came out to meet her, and my skittish kitten did well with her, too. She is kind, caring, and conscientious.”
About: Since I was a kid, I’ve always wanted to take care of animals. For the past 3.5 years, I have worked as a veterinary technician. I pride myself on understanding each pets’ unique personality and needs. I am confident in my ability to provide the best possible experience for you and your fur babies! I work full-time at an animal hospital. I am available before and after work, and all day on Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. If it is close enough, I will be able to check in on your fur baby between 12pm-2pm. I am able to check in on your pet periodically or stay overnight if needed. Either way, I will make sure your pet(s) get all the attention and care they need!
About: I have raised my sweet cat Sneaky since she was a kitten, as well as my dog Mabel since she was a puppy. I have had Sneaky for 7 years, and Mabel for 5. They are my life! I also have some grooming experience, so I am familiar with animals in a professional setting as well. I currently work for Instacart and attend NC State University. I'll be able to take care of your pets any time I'm not in school! I will care for your pets to your exact specifications and keep them great company! I am available for walks, drop ins, and some house sitting!
About: I have been raised with all types of animals. Family and friends have trusted me to stop in for quick visits and also spend the night and care for babies for extended periods of time. I currently am taking online college classes and working part time so I am capable of working my schedule around when I would need to be available for you and your pets needs. My own pets have their own crates, and are friendly. I also have 3 cats that are used to being around dogs of all sizes.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since as long as I can remember, as my family has always had dogs. From labs to golden retrievers to small rat terriers, I’ve experienced a variety of dogs and it’s been a constant family obligation to make sure the dogs are always taken care of by being fed, walked, bathed/groomed, nurtured, etc. Dogs to me have always been part of the family, and should be considered a first priority and not just an after thought. I love playing with them and taking them outside when I can, and I’m young so I can (usually) still keep up with them! I always make sure to clean up after them when going on walks. I also used to volunteer at an animal shelter in my free time. I am still getting used to cats so I don’t know as much about their specific care but I am always willing to learn more. I am used to going on walks twice a day with my dog and taking her on hikes with me when I can. Her care is a part of my daily routine. I make sure to stay attentive to pets when it seems like they want attention/something from me. I work from home so I can be nearby them most of the day. I always follow their specific food schedule (or any medication) and keep the water bowls filled. I set aside time to take them outside/for a walk and clean up after them. I also love to play with them inside/lay down together.
