“Crisol did a wonderful job taking care of my home and my old cat.”
About: I have Boston terriers, cats, goats, an a donkey. I grew up on a small farm. I have rested animals from birth and up. I'm a mother of 6, with 11 grandkids and 2 great grandkids. I'm a 10 month employee for West Wilkes High school as a bus driver and custodian. I'm free most of the summer since I'm only a 10 month Wilkes County School employee. When school is in I work from 6-8am and 11:30-5:30pm. I live on a 10 acre small farm that I grew up on. My dogs have a fenced in yard and a doggie door. They have their own bedroom for when we are away from home and sleep with me at night. They are feed twice a day and have a monthly barkbox subscription.
About: I have cared for pets since I can remember! I grew up with two sisters who also loved animals and over the course of my life I have loved many small dogs, cats, turtles, fish, a bird, and a rabbit. I also gained a good amount of experience and knowledge on how to take care of pets through my time working at Pet Supplies Plus, where I would often advise customers on what would be most helpful to get their pets feeling good again. In my time here, I also cared for and helped heal many creatures, including cats, fish, cockatiels, ferrets, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I love bonding with pets and I find it really fulfilling getting to care for them as I get to know them. I have cared for others pets several times throughout my life- largely neighbors and family. Most recently, I got to pet sit while traveling and house sat for two lovely homes in Scotland. I care a lot about making sure that spaces are maintained and I am happy to do any household chores that may arise. I am currently in summer break from my university and I have a rather flexible schedule! My hours available may change depending on the week, but I will have plenty of time to play with your pet! Once my school semester begins, I can be free after 1 on Wednesday, before 5 on Thursday, and any time Friday-Sunday and Tuesday. I know the best trails to take your pup around in the WNC area and if they have a preferred place to walk, I always love exploring more! I believe in fitting myself into the natural routine of your furry friend wherever I can. If there's a specific time they like to play, eat, or get walked, I'm more than happy to accommodate! With pets that I'm just meeting, I like to meet them where they want to be met, and if that includes playing fetch all day, I'm happy to do so.
About: I have had animals all my life. I grew up with four dogs, a cat, and a bird! We rescued all of them and gave them a loving home full of attention and all the treats they could ever want. I would also pet sit for friends every so often. Because of this, I have learned a lot about everything that comes with being a pet owner. I now live here in North Carolina with my boyfriend and we have our sweet cat, Pretzel. I currently have a full-time job in West Jefferson. I am available for drop ins anytime during the weekends and late afternoon/nights during the week. I can do drop ins and do whatever I need to do to care for your pet whether that's playing with them, feeding them, or changing the litter. I can also walk dogs as well!
About: I have experience in taking care of dogs and cats of all ages and with taking care of multiple pets at once. For four years, I have walked dogs, performed "check-ins", and house-sat for multiple local families in the area. I also have experience with caring for physically disabled dogs and giving dogs oral medication. I am a recent graduate from Duke University’s Nicholas School of the Environment and am looking for part time work in pet care and sitting. I always put pets first when I am staying at a clients home. Any request the owner has for the safety and health of their animal, I will always respect and follow!

I am careful to ensure that each pet gets their individual needs met daily, whether that requires multiple walks a day, one on one play time, or anything else that they may need.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have raised/trained dogs my whole life. I'm responsible, reliable , and clean. I have a lot of time and attention to commit to pets that are in need. I've been in the restaurant industry for 12 years now and have strong worth ethic. I love a good adventure , hikes, and the outdoors. I'm trustworthy and passionate. I'd love to become more independent with my services and plan on becoming a personal chef in the future. Studying nutrition and taking care of animals in need is a goal of mine. I've always been hands on and active in helping with the humane society. I also help care for friend's dogs. This way I can put myself out there and earn some money to strive for my goals.

About: I’ve lived on a farm with lots of animals big and small so watching your pet would be a breeze.

About: I currently do not have any pets, but have had multiple throughout the years. I am excited to gain more experience and to take care of pups or cats. I currently work as a remote event planning intern, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with pups! I have free time throughout the day and evenings, while being home for work! I can do whatever you feel comfortable with when caring for your pet. I have a fenced yard and can take them on walks or can crate, if needed.
About: I’ve been providing dog and cat-sitting services since I was in middle school! I have cared for a variety of dogs and cats of many different shapes and sizes. My soul dog passed away 2 years ago, and I provided senior care for him from when he was 8 to 13 along with hospice care before his passing. Since he passed away, my partner and I have opened our home to 2 rescue cats. I have experience with medication administration for both cats and dogs. I’m a newly graduated optometrist, and will only be working 2 days a week over the summer. I am available nights and weekends and on any day I am not seeing patients! I have a large home with a yard for play. The yard is not fenced, so all play will be with a long leash and completely supervised! When providing services in a client’s home, I maintain professionalism while still engaging with their pets and showing them some love while their parents are away.
About: I'm here for whatever your dog needs! I specialize in walks with encouraging behavior skills and playtime! I'm able to adjust to your pet's schedule and don't mind stopping in numerous times a day, staying the night to keep an eye on them, or rising at the crack of dawn if that is y'all's routine! I'm here for all of your summer vacation needs! I’m available per the calendar. (Which is updated frequently.) And if you need a full scheduled week for that annual beach or mountain trip, I’m more than happy to accommodate on weekends! :) One thing I prefer to do- to instill trust in you and your pets- is visit the home ahead of time. I love to get to know your pet's routine so I can better understand the expectations and comforts your animal has!
