About: I am a "gentle giant" with a lifelong passion for animals and over 19 years of experience providing dedicated pet care. By trade, I work in the electric industry, which means dependability, safety, and attention to detail are built into everything I do. When you leave your home and your furry family members in my hands, you can rest easy knowing they are being watched by someone who is as responsible as they are soft-hearted With my background in electrical work, I am naturally observant and highly dependable. I treat your home with the same respect and care that I treat your pets. Animals truly take to me. I provide a calm, steady presence that helps even the most anxious pets feel safe and relaxed. I am also an avid photographer! You won't just get a "check-in" text; you’ll receive high-quality, beautiful photos of your pets throughout the day so you can see exactly how happy and settled they are. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a steady hand for medication, or just a big guy to curl up next to for a nap, I am here to provide the five-star care they deserve Please don't hesitate to reach out. I have a special place in my heart for senior animals. I understand that older pets require a patient, calm energy and a gentle touch. I am fully experienced in administering medications—whether it’s pills, liquids, or specialized care—and I am highly attuned to the subtle changes in a senior pet's comfort and behavior.
About: I have provided daily in-home care for pets, including feeding, fresh water, and cleaning litter boxes or pet areas. I have administered daily oral medications and specialized diets to pets with chronic health conditions, ensuring 100% adherence to care plans. I have managed high-energy or reactive dogs on walks by implementing positive reinforcement techniques. I have volunteered at the local animal shelter in the past and also used to work at a grooming salon! I currently have a job as a registered nurse but my schedule is flexible allowing me to care for your pets when needed! This is something I have always wanted to do as a side job because it brings me such joy to work with animals. I will treat your pets in your home as I would my pets in my own. I will make sure they are properly cared for, cleaned up, and well fed!

About: My love of pet care began at age 14 when I got my 1st job working with a vet. I bicycled each morning at 6 am before school to clean cages. My love and determination has not waned over the years and I have continued, off and on, to work with vets and offer in home pet care to a diverse group of clients from birds to wolfhounds for the last 30+ years.. I am looking forward to meeting your fur family and discussing how I might provide the best care for your loved ones in your absence. As a fellow user of this service, I understand the desire for an experienced, trust worthy, capable, level headed care giver with a degree of common sense. My aim is to provide the same level of care that I would expect my family to receive as well. Your sense of confidence in my abilities to care for your family is my #1 priority. I bi-locate between Greensboro and Danville and am available in both locations and between. I look forward to speaking with you! At the moment, in home pet care is my first priority and upon approval, I can be available 7 days per week as well as on an extended basis, upon review and acceptance by both parties for in your home pet care and walking duties as well as drop-in visits. I have found most pets prefer to be in their own homes and around familiar sights and sounds to ease their transition from their primary caregiver to me. For this reason, I highly recommend in home pet care. I am willing to discuss pet care in my home on a case by case basis.
About: I’ve grown up with many animals and tasked to take care of them from a young age. I’m comfortable with all types of dogs (thought pit bulls are my favorite), and I understand that each one needs its own individualized care. I work part-time and have many free hours throughout the week to take out your dogs! Whether it’s going for a walk or just dropping by for a visit and potty break, I can make it work. I live in an apartment with no pets of my own but have access to many parks and grassy areas. If you feel more comfortable with me coming to your house for sitting instead, I’m absolutely willing. Whatever makes you and your animal most comfortable is what I want to do.
About: With over 26 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, I bring a level of knowledge and confidence that goes beyond basic pet sitting. I've raised, trained, and worked closely with my own dogs over the years, friends,and family- giving me real world understanding of behavior, routines, and what each dog needs to feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pup is high-energy, shy, senior, needs any medication, or somewhere in between, I adapt my care to match their personality and routine so they feel at home even when you're away. My goal is simple: provide reliable, attentive care that keeps your dog happy,secure, and well loved and gives you complete peace of mind. I am focusing on working with what I love. That just happens to be dogs! My availability is open so I'm ready to get started! I offer everything EXCEPT for boarding in my own home or cat care as I am highly alleric. I keep to my clients routine as closely as possible, I love very specific instructions so I can make sure I'm doing what needs to be done to make sure the pets are well taken care of. My dogs get playtime daily, they go out multiple times a day, and they get treats in moderation. Positive reinforcement is the only way to go. No yelling, or anything of the kind. I am patient, even if accidents happen.

“Katie was amazing with our dogs. She showed up right on time - as scheduled - and we received daily updates/pics. We came home to happy & relaxed pups. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years. My first dog, Baby, taught me what true love and loyalty mean. Since then, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as farm animals like goats and even a pony! As a gentle and patient pet mom, I always treat every pet like part of my family. I’m very attentive to their needs, from feeding and walks to emotional comfort. I have experience with both playful puppies and calm senior dogs. My home is peaceful, full of love, and perfect for pets who need a safe, caring environment while their owners are away. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a calm and loving routine. I spend most of my day at home caring for my baby and our pets, so I have plenty of time to give your furry friend attention, playtime, and care. I enjoy spending time outdoors in the yard and making sure every pet feels loved and safe. I can easily adjust my schedule to your dog’s feeding, walking, or nap times I take safety and comfort very seriously. In my home, pets are always supervised, loved, and treated as part of the family. I make sure they have fresh water, shade, and space to play or rest peacefully. I introduce new pets slowly and calmly to make sure everyone feels safe and relaxed. I’m experienced with animals of different sizes and temperaments, so I know how to read their body language and keep them comfortable. My yard is safe and spacious, and I always stay nearby when pets go outside. Whether at my home or yours, I treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for about 5 years. I currently have a 4 year old Aussie border collie mix who has reactivity issues and is very timid so i have taken training classes on how to work with a dog in situations like that. i also grew up in a house with multiple different sizes and breeds of dogs. I work part time at a restaurant in town and have a dog of my own but i do understand what it’s like to need some time away and make sure your pup is in trusted hands. I live on alittle over an acre with a cattle dog who is very high energy. we go on 3 4 mile walks a week and he is able to come and go from the house whenever he pleases. He is crate trained and he is on a strict feeding schedule. I get him groomed once a month and regular vet visits for up to date shots.
“Lindsay is great! She came to meet Cypress first, and they hit it off. Now Cypress gets super excited to see her and didn't even want her to go home. Super appreciate that she can come walk her while I'm working.”


About: I treat every dog like family—lots of love, attention, and a routine that keeps them comfortable and stress-free. I have experience with both energetic puppies (helping reinforce potty training, basic commands, and structure) and senior dogs who need a little extra care, patience, and sometimes medication support. I’m very attentive and pick up quickly on each dog’s personality and needs. Plus, I keep you updated with pictures and check-ins so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing! Pet care is intentionally built into my daily and weekly schedule so I can provide consistent, high-quality attention without ever feeling rushed. I block off time specifically for each pet to ensure they receive the care, exercise, and interaction they’re used to at home. My routine is designed to prioritize reliability, flexibility, and a calm, structured environment—so your dog experiences stability, not disruption. I provide care that keeps your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible, whether in my home or yours. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, including medications. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets receive plenty of attention, supervised care, and a calm routine. I’m mindful of each dog’s personality—whether they need more activity, structure, or a quieter setting. My goal is always the same: your pet feels secure, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Animal lover since birth & I got it honest. My mom is a cat person & my dad is a dog person, so I’ve taken care of many throughout childhood. Sisters brought home class pets we all enjoyed having around. Now as an adult I foster animals in need. From baby through senior, I’m good with all ages & breeds. I currently have a flexible schedule. Check ups, potty breaks, feeding, & play time will be no trouble. I mostly have my phone on person, so getting in touch with me is quick & easy. I live in a wonderful, friendly apartment complex with my cat & husband. The property has 2 fenced in dog parks, sidewalks great for walks with plenty of poop stations around. Bigger dog park with miles of walking/ biking trails just 5 mins down the road. All animal(s) being taken care of are seen as my own & respectful of any wishes you have during our arrangement. I look forward to meeting you & your pet(s).
