About: I am a pet person! I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my adult life. Animals have always been part of my family, and I truly love caring for fur babies of all ages and personalities. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, affection, attention, cuddles, and lots of love. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known in my community for taking care of friends’ pets when they’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, supervision, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood and love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. My home is very pet-friendly, I have a large, fenced in backyard, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my daily life. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. I have a secure fenced-in backyard with plenty of green space for dogs to safely play, explore, and get exercise. Pets will receive lots of attention, supervision, affection, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to follow each pet owner’s routines, feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special preferences to help pets feel comfortable and secure. If needed, I can also crate pets according to the owner’s instructions and comfort level.
About: I have owned pets since i was 6. I have owned dogs, birds, cats, fishes, spiders and more!! I am pretty active and can keep up with a dogs fast paced life. I am also chill more those more laid back puppies. I love having the company of a fury (and not so fury) friend around as much as they enjoy ours. I have experienced with alot if breeds of dogs and would love to expand my knowledge with more breeds. When sitting and walking dogs i focus all my attention on the task at hand making sure the dog gets everything he or she may need and all the attention ut can possible want. Dogs have been apart of my life for years and i just want to continue to give dogs a positive and fun filled life. I work overnights during the week and I'm free most weekends. I do moat dog walkings during the day and the time is not a problem on the weekends. I currently do not accept dog boarding requests but i do drop ins, house sitting, and dog walking. I usually follow all instructions given to make sure the dogs environment is as safe as possible.
About: If anyone loves their fur babies as much as I do (which has been described as smotheringly obnoxious and mothering, due to the amount of social media takeover my pups have accomplished) then we should definitely be friends. I adore little four legged animals, and will take on any other baby that a parent has to offer! It's important to me that the care I offer is just as special as I would want for my own sweet ones, as I know how mind-numbing (or relieving) it could be to separate! If I am able to alleviate at least some anxiety from animal loving parents and make new friends then it's a 100% worth-it trade! My two dogs are very sweet and love taking naps and playing with new friends, and we love our playtime together.
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was always surrounded by pets, and I've spent years helping friends, family, and neighbors care for their furry family members. Whether it's going on walks, playing outside, feeding, or just keeping your pet company, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that pets aren't just animals - they're part of the family! I take that responsibility seriously and always do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I'm dependable, patient, and happy to follow your pet's normal routine so they feel right at home. I'll also make sure to keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands! I own my own business and work from home, which allows me to have a very flexible schedule. I can easily make time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. Since I set my own hours, I'm able to work around your pet's routine rather than the other way around. Whether you need someone for a quick visit, regular walks, or extended care, I'm happy to accommodate your schedule! I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands while you're away. I have a dog of my own who relies on life-saving medication for epilepsy, so I know firsthand how important it is to stay on top of medications, schedules, and special care instructions. That experience has taught me to be especially attentive, patient, and responsible when caring for animals. I take the time to learn each pet's personality and routine, and I always treat your home with respect. I'm also happy to send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting the attention they deserve!

About: Hello! My name is Vivian. What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with animals of all kinds. I grew up an animal lover surrounded by dogs and large farm animals teaching me proper pet responsibility, patience, and deep compassion. I have hands on experience vaccinating large farm animals, administering medications, and providing attentive care to puppies, kittens, and senior pets. I am confident handling animals of all sizes and temperaments, and I always adapt my care to meet each pet’s individual needs. Whether this is crate training a new puppy, supporting an older pet with mobility issues, or simply giving extra cuddles and playtime, I treat every pet like family and my own! Your pet’s health, happiness, and safety are always my top priorities! <3 Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine since I work from home 3–4 days a week. This flexible schedule allows me to be available for pets throughout the day, whether it's providing company and care at home or doing check-ins and walks in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I enjoy building pet care into my day, it keeps me active and brings a lot of joy and purpose to my routine. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and personalized attention. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, toys, and cozy resting areas. I stick closely to each pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and playtime, to help them feel secure and at ease. I also have a sweet small dog named Harley, a rescue pup from Mexico, who absolutely loves all dogs and people. He’s gentle, playful, and always happy to make new His his presence often helps visiting pets feel more relaxed and welcome. When caring for pets in a client’s home - whether it’s dog walking, check-ins, or visits, I follow all instructions carefully, give pets the love and attention they need, and keep the space tidy and respected. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s daycare, boarding, or a quick visit, I treat every pet like they’re part of the family.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my life—cats were actually my first love, and I’m still a total sucker for them! While I don’t currently have a cat of my own, I’m very happy to provide drop-in care for your feline family members. At home, I have two friendly Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, who enjoy having canine companions around. I work from home, so dogs staying with me get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. We also have a large fenced yard where they have plenty of room to safely get outside and play. I know every pet has their own personality and routine—from the social butterfly who wants constant attention to the shy one who needs time and patience to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care for them like I would want someone to care for mine. And because I know how hard it can be to leave them, I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m home throughout the day with my own two dogs, Aspen and Indy. This gives me plenty of flexibility for meals, potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of companionship. Pets staying with me won’t routinely be left alone for long stretches, and we also have a large fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time. I’m also available for drop-in visits depending on the location and requested time. I finish my workday in the early afternoon, so my afternoons and evenings are generally very flexible for drop-ins. Morning or daytime visits may also be possible depending on timing and distance—just send me a request and we can see if it works! In my home, I try to keep your pet’s routine as close to what they’re used to as possible. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, meals, playtime, attention and plenty of cuddles. We have a large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and my two Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, are friendly and enjoy having canine companions. I can accommodate different comfort levels and personalities. If your dog enjoys being social, they can join Aspen and Indy for playtime and relaxation. If your pet is more comfortable having their own space or needs to be kept separate from other animals, I can accommodate that as well. My goal is for each pet to feel safe and comfortable rather than expecting every animal to interact. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, sleeping arrangements and any special routines or needs. I know being away from home can be stressful, so I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable and treated like part of the family while they’re here. For drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine in their own home, including feeding and fresh water, potty breaks or litter box care, medications if needed, playtime and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also happy to simply provide companionship for pets who are shy or prefer interaction on their own terms. I’ll provide photos and updates during stays or visits so you can relax knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away.

About: We are a married couple in our 40s interested in house/pet-sitting together. We have pet-sat for a few NC and TN families for the past several years, and both of us had pet-sat before we met as well. Zachary works from home and so will be around the house much of the day if dogs need a mid-day walk or meal. Denny wakes up early and can feed and walk dogs in the early morning. Between us, we have experience with cats, dogs, fish, birds, rodents, rabbits, livestock, reptiles, and amphibians. We are willing to work with other animals as well. We prefer to sleep at the pet-owner's home when needed, as this means that we’re around and available for the pets at various times throughout the day. Denny also does drop-in care and dog-walking. Zachary has experience training dogs and volunteering with cats as well. Looking forward to meeting you! Zachary has a flexible work schedule and works from home. Denny is available to care for pets in the mornings, sometimes late afternoons, evenings, and weekends. We both enjoy walking and hiking and would love to take your dogs for walks. We don’t bring pets into our home but prefer overnight care in the pets’ home and are also open to drop-in care and walks. We are both very gentle with dogs and cats and enjoy lots of cuddles with pets, and we also make sure to take them for walks if desired.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 16! What sets me apart is I genuinely care for the animals I am watching over and want them to have the best time while I watch them! I work 8-5 M-F so I am available to sit during the week if the animal is able to wait about 8.5 hours between potty breaks! I am also available to free up my weekend to watch the animals! I try to cater my pet experience per animal. If they are more of the relax and cuddle type I am able to do that, or if they are more energetic I try and take them on long walks and play with them often! No animal is the same so I try and cater my services per the animals needs!
