Top rated Polkton house sitters

“Jeffery is absolutely terrific!! We have utilized his services for 2 years now. He has not only cared for our pet, but has also been our house sitter during our trips. We have found him to be a trustworthy and honest person who provides much love and attention to our fur baby. Our pet is a family member whom we love dearly and had a tough life prior to adopting us as his new family. Due to that, we were very concerned with finding someone who would provide the same type of love and attention as he receives from us. I am very happy to say that Jeffery has provided all of that to our pet and can ensure that he will do the same for your pet. I can't thank him enough for helping us to enjoy our time away, by caring for our pet in a way that allows to relax, knowing that he is in good hands.”


“Laura was amazing. Kept us informed on everything and sent lots of pics. She even made collars for our babies. That was so nice and sweet of her. She kept the house clean and followed all the instructions on the care that they require.”


“Stephanie did a great job with my dogs and was very reliable and timely. One of my dogs is very anxious and she did a great job handling his anxiety. It was nice not to worry about them while I was traveling for work!”


“Wow! Thanks Philip for taking care of my Maggie! I was very anxious at first but providing me with updates and pics throughout the day helped calm those fears. You did an awesome job and I would highly recommend you and of course I will be a return customer!”


“Shalisha was so great with our pup Morris, entertaining him during rainy/snowy days with new toys and sending us frequent updates. She left our home in good shape and we’d love to work with her again!”


About: I have grown up around animals my entire life and I love showing all the love I can. Pets deserve to be spoiled and I live by that. I have a very flexible schedule and open when needed all days of the week any hours. I always find time to care for pets even if they aren’t mine. I constantly make sure to care for pets when it benefits them best. I love spending time with them if that means throwing toys in a yard or going on adventures for a pup cup.. with parents permission ofc.

About: I’ve worked in the pet care industry for three years. That’s given me the opportunity to care for almost every breed, I’ve seen every temperament. I absolutely can confidently care all shapes and sizes! With my current job, I have a break in between shifts. I’m available morning, mid day, and also nights/evenings. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m able to accommodate many requests. I am willing to follow whatever routine you normally have at home! Anything that gives your pet a peace of mind and keeps them comfortable while you’re away!

“Katherine as great! Took excellent care of our fur babies and left everything as it was when we left. She did an amazing job and the boys seemed to enjoy their time with her. She went above and beyond to make them feel loved and comfortable. She sent pictures and kept in touch to let us know how they were doing. Will definitely use her again if we have a need. :)”


“Stephanie took amazing care of my cat and was an overall pleasure to work with! She genuinely cares about each pet and pays attention to detail. She also does an incredible job communicating and keeping you updated on how your baby is doing during her stay and she sends lots of cute photos too! Your fur babies will be in excellent hands with her!”

“Katelyn was truly lovely! She has a wonderful disposition & our pups loved her. She took excellent care of them & respected our home. I will absolutely welcome her back any time.”


About: I have years of experience with animals going back as far as 5 years old. I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, and even different types of birds. I've always loved teaching animals new tricks, cuddling, even watching them get the zoomies outside. Animals can be a lot of fun when you let them experience different environments and aspects of life. I also had a job at a pet boarding place. This consisted of being outside with the dogs in runs, playing with them, cleaning the rooms and more. I have 2 dogs at home. One boxer and one german shepard. I work a lot so when i'm home I try to spend as much time with them as I can when I am home. One of the things my german shepard likes to do is chase water from the hose, so during the summer time, we do that a lot. On the other hand, Tyson is a little bit older but he still gets the zoomies, he likes to playfully growl outside but then when he's done, he likes to sun bathe lol. To include all this, I also have 2 guinea pigs who need lots of attention. I try to bring them out of the cage by 1 everyday to spend quality time with them because they're very loving. They enjoy being outside and eating the clover, they sure do appreciate when they get their veggies! They need their nails trimmed about once a week so I do keep up with that. Bathing them isn't a high priority since they just like cats and bathe themselves but a bath once every 3-4 months will be perfect. Our dog tyson, tends to get scared of storms really easily, so when this happens I try to comfort him as much as possible wether that's putting on his jacket, letting him up on my bed because he's scared and needs some cuddles.

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life. From fish, to farms, kittens, to cattle, dogs, and beared dragons, I love them all! I can help keep your furry baby safe and comfortable when you aren’t able to! I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule. I have 2 friendly dogs that are neutered and up to date on their shots. I would love to have a furry friend come hang out or I can take a nice break with your baby at your house! We have a large yard on a country road. Our yard is not fenced in. I am diligent to keep our dogs leashed. I have limited neighbors who do not own animals.


“Mackenzie was wonderful. She was very communicative and great to work with. She asked a lot of questions during the meet and greet so she knew how to best care for our cats. She also provided detailed updates and photos during her visits. We will definitely use her services again.”


“Anna was wonderful. We just moved and needed a short notice sitter. She worked with me on logistics and kept our three dogs healthy and happy for a few days while we were gone. She updated us with pictures every day and kept me posted on how the dogs were doing and behaving. I am so glad that we found a great sitter so soon!”

“Sam is the absolute sweetest. One of my dogs is very nervous with new people, and she gave him the space he needed to get comfortable with him, which immediately put me at ease. She communicates well and clearly has a love for animals. Will definitely be booking her over and over again.”


“Riley is awesome!! Very very friendly, kind and caring. She took extra time with my dog. Shared plenty of photos and messages. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again...100%!!”

Abigail S.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Abi has taken care of our two dogs and house more than once now, and she’s been amazing every single time. Our dogs light up when they see her, which honestly says it all. She’s super kind, responsible, and just has this calm way with animals that puts everyone at ease. She’s planning to become a vet, and you can really tell—she’s so tuned in to how the dogs are doing and always goes the extra mile to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. We also really appreciate how well she takes care of the house—we come home to happy pups and everything in its place. It makes leaving town so much easier knowing Abi’s there. Can’t recommend her enough!”

Aubrey A.
“Aubrey is one of the most loving and dedicated people I’ve ever met towards both people and animals (especially animals). She has looked after my dogs on multiple occasions and never fails to prioritize efficient communication, excellent time-management, and an exceptional passion for what she does. As someone who loves their fur-babies more than anything, I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”


Daiana B.
“Daiana Blanco is an AMAZING pet sitter and is amazing to all sorts of animals! She sheltered a stranded Dog until it found a new home which was with me. She found this puppy extremely malnourished on the side of the road and brought him back to extraordinary health in less than a month. 3 days a week when I’m not home she comes just to check on him to make sure he’s still doing great. She will even play with my Parakeet and make sure he isn’t lonely. I recommend Daiana to any person trying to have any of their pets sat because they will be in good hands and great care.”
