About: Hi! My name is Diane and I love all animals .I have worked in the pet industry full time in the last 10 years in kennels , grooming boarding, daycare and training facilities . I have also been pet sitting over 25 years ,friends and family have entrusted their precious pets in my care because they trusted my abilities and knew that I would treat their pets as I would my own. Spending my days with animals is the ultimate job. Kinda hard to even call it a “job.” Who can resist waggs and purrs, wet kisses and lap naps? Certainly not me. Pet sitting and dog walking is my profession, my livelihood and my business. I look forward to caring for your pets and keeping you updated as to how they are doing in my care. I'm a full time pet sitter so I'm available most days for house sitting , drop in visits and dog walks during the week and on weekdays. I do my best to stick to your pets schedule . I will always communicate any issues beforehand or as soon as they come up . I will always treat the animals and the properties with respect and try to leave the homes looking the way they were when I got there !

About: I’ve been a proud dog mom for over 25 years and currently have two spunky Chihuahuas who keep me laughing every day. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—from tiny lap dogs to big bundles of energy. I know how important it is to feel at ease while your pup is with someone else, so I treat every dog like family. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just cuddling on the couch, I make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and cared for. I also have experience with senior dogs and pups that need a little extra patience or medication, so you can trust they’ll be in good hands. At the end of the day, I believe dogs are the best friends in the world, and I can’t wait to meet yours! 🐶❤️ I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I also live close by to Tanger outlets and the Burlington area. I have a yard for my dogs to run, play with toys and fetch. Also I enjoy walking trails at the local parks or arboretum.

“Very friendly and reliable service. I will use him again in the future.”

About: I began my journey learning about responsible pet care and dog training when I was ten years old and enrolled in 4H with my puppy. Since that early age I have gained professional experience in vet clinics, pet stores, and as a professional dog jogger. I did extensive research on positive reinforcement training when I adopted my shy, border collie mix puppy in 2020 and am a strong believer in its ability to form strong bonds and trust with any pet. I currently have a remote job that gives me open flexibility. I can also make evening visits and overnights stays throughout the week. I can work from your home on my laptop when I am pet/house sitting, providing a lot of companionship for your best friend! I will care for the pets in your home, where they feel most comfortable. I am open to developing pet care in my home for doggy daycare. I have a large fenced yard and am located right next to Cedarock Rock. I walk our dogs there almost daily. Our young dog Hugo would love a dog to play with!

“Kendric is great! Our dog loves going on walks with her and she’s been very responsive and always sends an update afterwards. I’d highly recommend her!”

“Aiden did a good job. He’s very responsive, communicative and responsible. I recommend him!”

About: Hi, I’m Sierra. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! 🐾 I’m based in Chapel Hill and provide services throughout the Triangle. I currently work with University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My schedule is very flexible and often remote, which allows me to spend extended time in your home for house sitting or provide multiple drop-in visits each day, whatever best fits your pet’s needs. I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds and truly love animals. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and those with special needs. I began volunteering at animal shelters in my early teens and continued pet sitting for neighbors throughout high school and college. Growing up, I was always surrounded by animals—cats and dogs, along with hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and even goats—so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Currently, I share my home with three cats: my 16-year-old Maine Coon mix, Leo, and two rescue girls, Indigo and Periwinkle. While I don’t have a dog of my own yet, my family has four, and I plan to adopt one in the future. I’m experienced with administering medications (including insulin), as well as providing baths, light grooming, enrichment, and dog park visits. I’m also happy to help with household tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. My goal is to care for your pets just as you would. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and any special needs so I can provide consistent, loving, and attentive care. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I look forward to caring for your furry family members! 🐶🐱💛 My current role allows me to be able to work remotely so my routine can be very flexible depending on your preferences and pet needs! I’d care for your pets in your home as I’d care for my own pets at home, with all the snuggles, treats and playtime they need!

“Brittney was wonderful with my dogs. She was great at communicating promptly and she made sure to always consider them. I really appreciated the service she provided and would definitely recommend her to others!”

About: I have a natural connection with dogs. I have owned dogs over the years, as a child and as an adult. I have been in contact with many breeds and I haven't met a dog that didn't like me or I didn't love. I would care for your pet as if they were my own. I'm reliable and attentive to your pets needs by showering them with love and affection. I have a happy home with many trails for walks and runs. I'm available most of the day and can accomodate most schedules. I currently have a small chiweenie (Dachshund-Chihuahua mix). She is spade and about 3 years old. She is a rescue dog. She is very well tempered and gets along with all dogs, big and small.

“We are so appreciative of Lindsey! She was willing at the last minute to come do a meet and greet with our pups and step in the next day for walking Bailey!”

Tiffney L.

About: I couldn't imagine my life without animals. My mom bred labs when I was a kid and I have always lived in a house with dogs. I worked in a vet for a while I was in high school where I walked, fed, cleaned up after, and provided medications to dogs visiting or boarding. I have also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends for years. I’m always available by phone. I am also more than willing to send pictures or texts to pet parents that would like them. I currently work full time Monday through Friday in a remote capacity and on site as needed, but I’m lucky enough to have a lot of flexibility. I have always treated pets as part of the family and think that all animals should be treated with compassion. I also believe that positive reinforcement is the most effective training method and that you can always teach an old dog new tricks.

“Mackenzee is the best! We are so grateful to have found her. She is so reliable, personable, and kind. She is incredibly patient and good with our dog Makapu, who just loves her :) We trust her completely with our fur babies!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would so excited to meet your furry family members! I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was ten years old and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I am also a proud dog and cat mom, so I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for them while you are away. During my undergraduate years at Tulane University, I volunteered at an animal shelter in New Orleans, where I helped walk and care for shelter dogs. I also had the opportunity to work with service animals through my university, which gave me additional experience understanding the importance of patience, consistency, responsibility, and following each animal’s individual needs and routines. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UNC-Chapel Hill. I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and compassionate, and pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy doing outside of school. Whether your dog needs a good walk and some zoomies, your cat wants some attention (or prefers to pretend I don’t exist!), or your pet simply needs someone to stop by and keep them company, I’m happy to help! 🐾 What I can help with: - Dog walking & exercise -Cat & dog check-ins - Feeding & fresh water -Playtime & cuddles - Cleaning up after pets - Medication assistance when needed 📸 Photos & updates so you know your pet is happy and doing well I’ll always take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and preferences. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I have a flexible schedule and am happy to work with your pet’s needs! I’m available for check-ins and visits anytime on weekends. During the week, I am completely available on Fridays and can usually accommodate morning and evening check-ins Monday–Friday, with the exception of Wednesdays, when my availability is more limited. I’m happy to coordinate a schedule that works best for you and your pet’s routine! 🐶🐱 I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their own familiar environment, which is why I provide in home check-ins and care at your pet’s home. I will always respect your space, follow your instructions carefully, and make sure your pet’s routine stays as consistent as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and needs so I can provide thoughtful, attentive care. I’m comfortable following specific feeding schedules, exercise routines, and care instructions to help your pet feel safe and relaxed. As a lifelong pet owner and experienced pet sitter, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member and your home. I’ll provide updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and cared for. I do not offer boarding in my own home, but I’m happy to provide reliable, loving care where your pet feels most comfortable—at home.

About: I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, and over the years, friends and neighbors have trusted me with the special care of their beloved pets. For over a year, I worked in a lab-like setting providing daily care to a wide variety of exotic animals, including reptiles, amphibians, small mammals and birds. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, and general husbandry for each species. I also have experience caring for senior animals, including administering medication and performing nail trims, so I'm comfortable with pets who need a little extra attention and care. I currently work part-time and am finishing up my Associate's degree, which gives me a good amount of flexibility during the week to care for your fur babies. On days I work an 8-hour shift, there may be a slightly longer gap between potty breaks, but I always plan ahead and communicate clearly so you know exactly what to expect. Providing consistent, quality care for your animals is a top priority for me, no matter my schedule. When I care for your pets in their own environment, I bring nothing but comfort and love. I give excellent cuddles and scritches, and genuinely enjoy enriching their day with play. I know when to be calm and reassuring, and when to be playful and energetic, adapting to match each pet's unique personality. Every animal I care for receives quality, individualized attention tailored to exactly what they need. Above all, you can count on me to be reliable and consistent, every single time.

About: I have been pet sitting since 13 years old and I have been volunteering about three times a week at Orange County Animal Services where I walk and provide enrichment for cats and dogs. I’ve taken care of a variety of animals- dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, lizards, guinea pigs, and even rats. I have experience with all ages, behavior, and energy levels, as well as taking care of multiple animals at one time. I work at Green Beagle Lodge, a daycare and boarding facility where I oversee playgroups and do stuff like cleaning ears and eyes, balming paws, brushing, etc. I work three 12 hours shifts and week, Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, as well as Thursday evenings from 4pm to 7pm. I am available Thursdays before 3pm and all day Sunday, Tuesday, and Friday. I am available for drop in visits, such as a couple time a day to simply feed and walk your dog or cat (or other animal). I can also do more involved pet care, such as staying overnight and hanging out with your fur baby all day!

“Alessandra is a GEM! She is kind and gentle and knows how to make our anxious little dog feel safe. She is very conscientious and made sure she understood the details of Lou's routine (including his medication), which put me completely at ease. Alessandra gives our dog the same loving care that we do, and I'm so glad to have found her!”

About: Ive grown up with animals my whole life, I started walking my family dog and cleaning up after my family cats when I was pretty young and Ive been doing it ever since! I take care of my own dog, and I have also had experience house sitting and dog walking for friends and neighbors. Im currently in school at Alamance Community College, and I have class 9-5 every Tuesday and Thursday. Other than that and the occasional appointment I am pretty open :) I like to follow a timely schedule with my dog (when I feed her, when I walk her, when I take her out, etc.) But of course it isn’t always perfect, and I am willing to adapt to any specific instructions/ guidelines.
