I had a great experience with Mallory this past weekend while I was traveling. We did a meet and greet a couple weeks before my trip. She was so kind and my cat took to her immediately. I hired Mallory for 2 drop in visits and during these visits I received several pictures of my kitty enjoying her company along with a report of anything I needed to know (missing Christmas ornaments, litter box usage etc.). I will definitely be asking Mallory to drop in on my cat for future trips!

I needed a sitter last minute for Leo, my 75lb pitbull. I never had someone just come over to walk him, I always dropped Leo off at sitters place which always worked out well. I figured having a meet and greet prior would be beneficial for both. Nicole's ability and knowledge on handling large dogs was evident from the start. Nicole came twice to walk Leo when I was away. He's a handful to say the least: a leash puller, excitable, high energy, etc. Both visits Nicole sent me pics and details of there walks. In the end, they were a perfect match! Highly Recommend!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for pets. Growing up, I regularly dog sat for family and friends, and I also volunteered at my local animal shelter, where I gained experience working with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry babies. My husband and I share our home with our sweet senior hound, Georgia, and our spunky cat, Loretta, so I am comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I’m also an avid plant lover with many plant pets of my own. I’m happy to water plants and keep things tidy while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and reassuring presence, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! I look forward to meeting you and your pets:) I currently provide pet care full time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability for your pets. My schedule allows me to be available for walks, drop in visits, and consistent routines that help pets feel comfortable and secure. Because this is my primary focus, i’m also able to accommodate last minute request when available. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your space with the same respect and care I would my own. I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and communication throughout my visit so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is to create a safe, positive experience for both you and your furry family members.

Cate immediately made us feel at ease and we knew our furr babies would be well taken care of. And, they were! She was amazing with communication and punctuality and our animals loved her. She is someone that you can trust with your beloved animals. It is a game changer for us in our ability to go away and be able to truly relax knowing someone who is responsible, and so kind and loving is with our furry kids. Highly recommend!

About: I am very good with anxious dogs especially during storms. I love playing with dogs and taking them on walks. I have been watching dogs and cats for years now and am dependable. I am currently a full time student in college but I often have time off on weekends to take care of pets. I also have time in between classes to walk or check in with pets. I spend lots of time outside and go on walks regularly and I’d love to bring pets along with me. I also can spend time with them in the clients home if that’s where they are more comfortable.

Jennie was wonderful. She sent us pictures of Bunny each time she came and made sure she was well fed. When our water went out while we were gone due to a broken well pipe, she contacted us immediately and brought over water for my cat. I’d definitely recommend her and will call her again.

Maria did a great job with drop-in visits for my 2 cats. I appreciated that she communicated often with updates and that she was dependable. My social girl took right to her and my shy boy even came out to play on the last day.

Monique was fantastic when she watched Stubbs and Atticus. She came by for a meet and greet before the sitting dates. She sent us updates and photos and the pups were in great spirits when we came home. We’ll definitely use her again in the future!

Jessica was amazing! Such great energy and we felt comfortable immediately when she arrived for a meet and greet. She dropped in on Dennis and he was well taken care of while we gone...and super happy and not stressed when we returned. I really hope she will help us out again some time.

About: I love cats. Especially the type that wants to curl up next to me. Do to my boyfriend having an allergy to cats we currently don’t have any. But I don’t mind dropping in and taking care of the fur babies. I’m currently a 911 Dispatcher for Transylvania County. I work every other week there. (Week on; week off) I will post my monthly schedules that way you can know if I’m a best fit for you. I would prefer not to have other dogs at my home. Due to one of my dogs not being all that friendly. But do not mind going to other homes and taking care of dogs through out the week.

About: I’ve had pets ever since I was really young and always wanted to get into the field of working with animals. I’ve taken care of a variety of animals from dogs to bunnies to guinea pigs and almost all of them have lived a very long life. I’m always excited to see any animal and work with them no matter what kind they are. I look forward to seeing every animal that comes my way and taking care of them as if they wear my own. I am currently working a part-time job, but I hope to transition to make this my part-time job. I am available and home every day of the week except Sunday (when I make this job my only job) and I’m home almost every hour and I will always make time for your pet. Well, the yard is on a hill and not fenced. I do have one dog three years old very friendly to keep any animal company. And if your dog needs to be in a crate. I can very much do that.

Really great care! It was pouring down rain when Beth & Rob got here so they took my dogs somewhere dry to run out their energy . Really appreciate their care & reliability! I would definitely use them again.

About: Caring for animals is something that runs in my family both my mother and my aunt are deeply involved in various rescues including but not limited to puppers, cats, even spiders of all shapes and sizes. We treat our fur babies like one of us and they are definitely part of the family. We will spend lots of time together walking through open fields and woods playing fetch if they are into those kinds of things I’m also ok with just sitting and sun bathing, we go fishing if the weather is nice. They will never have to worry about being alone or being forgotten or scared because I will be there any time they need. Lap dogs and cuddle buddies are always welcome !!

Louise was wonderful in caring for our kitties in a unplanned extended stay away from home. Her short notice support and great communication really relieved our anxiety.

Abagail was wonderful with our little Keller. He is pretty much blind and so is very careful when approached but he seems very comfortable with Abagail. She sends the cutest photos regularly and is very conscientious. She even brought in packages that were left at the door.
