About: I’m the definition of a “dog person” — we’ve had several of our own, and we’ve been a boarding stop for friends and family for years. I’m not working full-time right now, so I have plenty of time to exercise your fur-friend, or just drop in for a visit! If you have any specific questions or concerns, I’d be happy to answer them! I’m not working full-time at the moment, so I’m available any day, at any time! Plenty of time for long walks or drop-ins, whatever your pet needs. Whatever you and your pet are comfortable with! I’ve dealt with tiny dogs and huge dogs, seniors and young puppies — they’re all special to me.

“Ryan is awesome!! He has watched my 2 large golden doodles for a long weekend, and for daycare and both experiences have been seamless! Ryan’s responds almost instantaneously and is always available in a pinch. He makes pick up and drop off super easy and send lots of updates! My dogs have a blast playing in his backyard.”

“Ana was great! She was very responsive and accommodating with scheduling. I so appreciated all the photos and updates she provided throughout the day, it was easy to tell my pup was having a wonderful time!”

About: What sets me apart is my experience, reliability and availability. I work from home making it easy to do daytime drop in visits that fit your schedule and needs. Nights, weekends, and extended stays also avilable. I have been pet sitting for years and have pets that I've worked with for years. I work from home making it easy to add pet stops to my daily routine. I am frequently available and pretty flexible. Nights and weekends are fine also. I treat each pet as if it were my own. I take detailed notes on what the pet owner wants and needs for their loved pet. I have experience working with different breeds and ages and needs for pets and can provide references upon request.

“Amazing Experience with Anthony! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Anthony was absolutely wonderful with my Shih Tzu, Gizzle, at doggie day camp yesterday! He was up bright and early and ready for Gizzle at drop-off. Throughout the day, he kept me updated with important information and sent me pictures of Gizzle. ❤️ Just by looking at the pictures, I could tell Gizzle was happy, comfortable, and being treated with great care. I truly appreciate Anthony’s communication and the love and attention he gave my fur baby. I would definitely recommend him and will be booking with him again! 🐶💕”

About: I love dogs and cats of all personalities! I grew up having both so I love being around them whenever I can. I find that animals teach us to be better humans each day. I’m very good with Labradors and Golden Doodles as I have been around them the most. But am great with any animal. I love getting to take care of them as I don’t have my own animal so it’s always a treat for me! I have boarded and walked all kinds of dogs and cats and always make sure it’s a fun experience for both the animal and I. I have a very flexible work schedule! The days blocked off on my calendar are when I know I can’t help out. With my easy schedule I’m able to make any animal in my care my main priority of the day! I have a cat currently in my home that is my roommates. I help with her as well on occasion. The cat gets along very well with dogs as she grew up with dogs most of her life. She is female and does not do well with other female cats. So unfortunately boarding wise I won’t be able to board a female cat. We do have a big yard at my apartment complex for dogs to run around and be walked. I live in a massive apartment community so there is tons of space for walks and fun! My apartment is also very spacious and not a tight squeeze thankfully!

About: I have raised two dogs from puppyhood and handled their training and daily care myself. Kenzie came home at six weeks old, and my husky joined our family at eight weeks old. My experience includes house training, crate training, leash manners, basic commands, socialization, teaching tricks from the past with my pets and all the love and cuddles in the world with a mountain of toys. Friends and neighbors have also trusted me to help with their dogs, especially with common behaviors such as jumping, pulling, nervousness, and adjusting to new routines. I use a calm, patient, and consistent approach, and I never force a dog into an unfamiliar situation before they are comfortable. I am experienced with puppies, large dogs, senior dogs, cats, dogs that are not crate trained, and multi-pet households. I can also administer oral medications, follow specific feeding instructions, prepare meals, and maintain detailed routines. I am also a breast cancer survivor for any of my warriors out there, and when lost my beloved 12-year-old husky Sophie, caring for other companions felt like a meaningful way to honor her memory. With that being said, any special needs dogs, senior dogs that have any disabilities, seizures, cancer or any other needs, just know we have extra care items for your fur baby if needed. My friends often joke that my husband and I are “animal whisperers” because pets tend to feel comfortable and relaxed around us. I work from home working on my start-up business, so I am home all the time! This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I can accommodate regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, medication schedules, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive companionship and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I care for every pet according to their normal routine, personality, energy level, and comfort needs and special needs. My home offers a large backyard for supervised playtime, exercise, and fresh air. There is also a covered gazebo with a grassy area where dogs can relax, cool down, or take a quiet break when needed. There are also two cameras outside as well so I can always have eyes on them no matter what! I am currently transforming my garage into a fun indoor dog jungle gym, although that space is still under construction. For now, pets can enjoy the backyard, comfortable indoor areas, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, household, and safety instructions. I also provide photos and updates so pet parents can feel comfortable and confident while they are away.

“Leo had the best time! And it’s always so reassuring when your pup gets excited to see someone again!! Highly recommend”

About: I understand different energy levels, personalities, and routines, and I’m especially patient, attentive, and loving. I treat every dog as if they’re my own — with care, structure, and lots of affection. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and work schedule. I have the flexibility to provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I’m reliable, punctual, and communicative, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. I create a calm, safe environment, follow all instructions carefully, and treat every pet like my own with love, supervision, and consistent updates. I got you!

“Cullen took great care of our girl!! We got tons of pictures and she looked very happy and relaxed in all of them :)”

About: I grew up with dogs both big and small- from a rescue Beagle, to a Yorkie, and now my family’s 2 year old Anatolian Shepherd before moving from Maryland to Charlotte. I also grew up with 2 cats, Sumo and Shelby, so I have experience with both furry friends! I work remote, so I have a very flexible schedule. I also started more recently volunteering at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Shelter. I’d love to take care of your pet! 🐾❤️ I currently work remote 9am-5pm Monday-Friday, so I have the flexibility to be with and care for your pet throughout the day. My evenings are pretty relaxed, so I can even give your pet all of the love once I’m done with work for the day! I am also available on the weekends to do the same. I live in an apartment with 2 other women right across the street from a large park for your dog to play! I’m also not too far from the rail trail, so if your dog is friendly with other dogs I can even take them to the trail for some exercise. In my clients’ homes, I will be sure to follow any instructions to make sure you and your pet are comfortable!

“Danielle has great communication, sends lots of updates + photos, is very sweet! I know my pup is in good hands and is having fun. 100% recommend Danielle!!”

“Latrice was available last minute on Christmas eve/Christmas morning of all days. Was literally a lifesaver that she was available last minute on a holiday. My puppy was happy as could be when I picked him up and I could tell he was well taken care of. :) I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Christine and Andrew have been the best with taking care of Wilma weekly. They are sure to keep us updated and send pictures - they also make sure she gets plenty of toys :) Wilma looks forward to her time with them each week and it has been so seamless working with the both of them. I highly recommend working with them on pet sitting needs - they rock!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little. I just got back from taking care of my parents 8 week old puppy for two weeks and 10 year old Cavapoo. I work remote and have good flexibility so will able to take care of the dog and take it for walks during the work day! I live in an apartment but I go for about 4 walks a day but can change my schedule depending on what the dog needs :) no other pets and a clean apartment.

“Celeste is awesome! My dog Charlie loves her. She has such a special gift with animals.”

About: Growing up I had four dogs and a cat. I love animals and want to help other pet owners find peace of mind while traveling. As someone who works from home and has a flexible schedule, I am able to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I currently have two German Shepherd's and two cats and as a pet mom, I understand the need for reliable sitters who create a worry free environment. I currently work from home with an extremely flexible schedule. I choose my own hours and work right from my laptop, so I can easily adjust my schedule to help care for your pet and put your mind at ease. I have a fenced in yard that gives your pup lots of room to play! I love taking dogs on walks and making sure both cats and dogs get extra cuddles and attention.

“Denim had a great day! Dorian made sure to take him out, and let him play. He took great care of denim and kept me updated through the day. Will book again ☺️”
