About: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years. All of my pets have lived long, healthy lives based on excellent feeding, grooming, and regular medical care. I genuinely love animals and have a very watchful eye on their well-being. I am a retired school administrator with a 36-year history of creating productive learning environments and protecting the lives of thousands of school children. Care-taking is my thing. Now, I have a very flexible schedule/calendar, and I am wide open to opportunities to meet and care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I am available to follow instructions for drop-in or pet/house-sitting in the client’s home—including feeding and letting dogs out for potty breaks, feeding and checking in on cats, and feeding fish or birds.

“Jessica did a great job with our Ruby! Thank you!”

About: I am a 26 year old animal lover with years of experience with pretty much every type of dog. I have fostered for Adoption First Animal Rescue for over two years and love getting to love on beautiful souls that I encounter. I have 3 dogs of my own and 3 beautiful children under the age of 4. Your dog will have their own room and personal butler while they are in my care. I am a stay at home mom that rarely leaves the house outside of random grocery trips. I have experienced with hound houdinis, and various personalities and sizes. If your dog isnt a fan of other dogs, my house is big enough to crate and rotate with zero crossover if needed. I am a stay at home mom that rarely leaves the house outside of Sunday trips to Sams Club. My husband also works from home as a programmer, so there is generally always someone here My own personal dogs get two meals a day (morning and evening) and a walk in the evening as long as it isnt too hot. I can adapt to multiple routines depending on what your dog prefers

About: Hello, my name is Tianna and I’m 28. I’ve been a huge animal lover since I was a child where I’ve brought different animals home to take care of such as kitties, turtles, and even a peacock! I’ve fostered and owned a variety of dogs from lap dogs to larger breeds. I have 4 dogs of my own and another 5 that reside back in Texas with my family. 2 are seniors so senior dogs have a special place in my heart! I currently work at a fitness studio where I’m gone for 2-3 hours max a day but can schedule around to accommodate to you and your pets needs! I have a smoke free home where your pets can lounge on the sofa and bed :) I have a small fenced yard and 4 small dogs who are crate trained so they can be put away to keep your dog comfortable and safe if needed.

“Keagen was a great sitter for our puppy! She provided us with updates and sent pictures throughout the day. Would recommend her and definitely use her again!”

About: We’ve been dog sitting for family and friends over the past 10 years. Enjoy walking, playing and relaxing with them. Great with puppies to senior dogs. We are big dog lovers, flexible with our schedule and can certainly work with your dog’s schedule. Being with your dog is our top priority. Our yard is fenced in and our home is dog friendly. We prefer them to be around us whether it’s out in the yard or in the kitchen washing the dishes. In your home, is per your instructions.

About: I currently have a 4 year old Aussiedoodle and a ~6 year old grey rescue cat and grew up in a very animal loving household. My childhood pets include a multitude of sweet pups, indoor and outdoor cats, and potty trained rabbits, and a multitude of other small animals. I also have years of experience pet sitting dogs for family friends and for the animals (horses, chickens, dogs, and cats) on my aunts farm. I work from home Monday through Friday and am available for 30 mins - 2 hour intervals for drop in visits and neighborhood walks. I will only be taking on one client per day, so that your fur babies (and mine) will get the best love and care. I am available for in home visits and walks and have a loving house of my own for your pup to stay in. We have a fenced in yard and would love to have your pup stay with us granted they are other dog and cat friendly. I have a flexible schedule, so please let me know if any additional services are needed

About: With a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience, I’m here to give your pet the same care and attention I’d give my own. I started pet sitting and dog walking back in middle school and never stopped—it’s truly a passion of mine! I’m patient, active, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. My dog, who passed away a few years back, was a trained service animal and the sweetest boy. Whether your pet is shy or full of energy, I’m here to meet them where they are and make them feel right at home. I am self employed and work from home with a flexible schedule so I have time to dedicate to your pups and kitties! I can typically accommodate last minute bookings. As stated prior, my dog (who has now passed) was a service dog and went through safety training. I learned a lot throughout that course about pet handling and care. I am active and fit and can work with with animals from the smallest of kittens to the largest of pups!

About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats throughout my whole childhood. I’m currently a stay at home wife and pet mom of 2 dogs on a military base! I’m walking distance away from 3 different spacious dog parks and have a massive yard your dogs can walk and play in. I also live on base with a veterinary clinic. I’ve always had a love for animals and treat them all just like family! I currently do not work anywhere and I’m a full stay at home wife on a military base in Havelock, NC. I am looking for another part time job, definitely somewhere close to my house so I’m never too far away from the pets! We have a spacious yard, perfect for long walks and play time on a retractable leash! We also have a covered dog pen for rainy days and dogs who don’t want to get their paws wet. I usually feed my animals once in the morning but can cater to any dogs needs and normal schedules! Water is always available along with toys, a comfy couch, and dog beds! I also have experience in medication if your dog takes pills I can give them those if/when needed.

About: I am an attentive Dog-Sitter. But welcome all animals!! Cats, dogs, birds, bunnies! You name it! I love pets. I strive to get friendly with any pet I meet and care after. I treat all pets as if they are my own and create a relationship with them during the time I spend with them! I own a Siberian husky who is 3 years old but still in puppy mode. He currently does not live with me, he lives with my parents in New Jersey! I love my own dogs and pets as much as I love meeting new ones and looking after them. I do however love Dogs and Cats equally! I believe both are unique and special in their own ways and I think there are things dogs do that fill our hearts in the same way that cats do as well. Hope to meet you and your pets soon! I currently work part time on base and usually come home for about 2 hours during my shifts and stay home on weekends. This gives me plenty of time for your pets!! I love taking dogs and cats in for boarding this is probably my favorite. They get a vacation while their owners do too! Although that’s not always the case I will make sure your pet does feel as if he/she is on vacation. I will even bathe your pets if you are okay and or seems necessary. love cuddling with animals and making them happy!

About: I've been involved with animal rescue as long as I can remember. Taking in strays, rehabbing, and finding homes. I have worked with agencies and on my own and out of my pocket. I have written references available. I moved here from California, last year. I still have someone running my business in CA. I haven't worked since I arrived, although I signed up to volunteer with rescues. I'm pretty much retired now and I can't think of anything I'd rather do than play with fur babies. I have a chain link fence. 1/2 acre yard. I have a couple extra crates available. My dogs are very friendly, but I do want to get my clients and my dogs aquinted in a neutral place ie; dog park.

About: Hi, I'm Lauren! I have done pet sitting and dog walking for my neighbors and friends since I was 10 years old, including high energy puppies and an elderly, blind dog in particular. I'm currently home from college for the summer and would love to take care of your pups! I have a big family so someone is always available to take your pet on walks or have playtime. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your animals on weekdays and weekends. Plus, there is always a family member at home so your pets will never be left alone. I have one friendly labrador in the home who sleeps in her crate at night. I can easily crate your dog as well if needed. We do not have a fenced in yard, however, our home is in a perfect location for long walks away from traffic and games of tug in the yard.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have a brand new home at the end of Taylors Creek on the water. When I built I had my work in animal rescue in mind. I have LVP flooring, doors to a private screened porch and top deck with a dog pool that locks or they can head down to a fenced in back yard. I do allow my dogs in the bed but I respect the rules of home as well. I am local and know all the dog hot spots. I am more than happy to bring your dogs for a visit while you are here on vacation or you are welcome to come to my home to visit. The horses of shack stand in front of my home for an extra bonus. If your dogs needs a bath I can do that to as I have hot and cold dog washing station. I work from home 24/7 and if I leave I normally take the crew with me. I also can crate if you so desire and have several. I have a fenced in yard. Two security gates. Cameras. I respect all rules from your home. I have every size crate you would need. I have a lovely collie that loves having friends over. I work from home and have regular dog play dates. We always are chasing a ball or frisbee and the dogs live going on boat rides. I have cameras, fenced in yard and dog crates so you would not need to bring anything but food. I respect owners house rules during visit.

“5 plus stars! It was a 10 mile drive for me each way and totally worth it. Beautiful property perfect for dogs. Will be back!”
