“Big thanks to grey for taking care of my puppy when I needed help last minute. He’s only 9 weeks old so he needs constant attention, it’s no easy task! I am super appreciative & I know my little pup is too!”

About: I am need of full time employment and have been pet sitting for friends and family for over ten years now. I absolutely love dogs and spending time with them because their love is unconditional. I grew up helping take care of my family's dog for about fourteen years and then helped raise a puppy who is turning ten in October. I enjoy being around dogs and playing with them so I feel like this is going to be the right gig for me. I am very positive and outgoing and love spending time outside. I'm currently unemployed and hoping to pick up as many gigs as I can to get a new routine started as I settled in a new location. I adjust based on the animal's needs. Some dogs I've watched have been incredibly more active and needing of attention than others, as well as cats. It's all about hearing what the owner needs for their pets while they're away to ease any anxiety they have of leaving them.

“Ginger took great care of our 2 dogs and home while we vacationed for spring break. She was very communicative and the dogs were well cared for! Highly recommend Ginger for your pet sitting needs!”

“Lisa was absolutely amazing. My babies took to her right away, and I'm sure they will miss her until the next time. She kept me updated and left my home as she found it. Will definitely be using her whenever I travel!”

About: I've had all different kinds of pets throughout my life (cats, dogs, rabbits, ducks) - and have lived on homesteads with farm animals too. Most recently I've been full time house and pet sitting over the last year while traveling. I have completed 24 assignments with glowing off the charts 5 star reviews. House/pet sitting has been one of the the most special things I've ever done. You can be sure your pup will get daily walks in local parks or trails, playtime in the yard or the dog park, and lots of cuddle time too - there will be no shortage of affection and attention. Please note that my two children do accompany me on overnight pet sitting assignments. They are wonderful with animals and under my supervision the entire time, though please be sure your pets are comfortable and okay with children prior to sending a booking request. Thank you! I'm a work from home, homeschooling mother. I have curated our lifestyle such that we have flexibility throughout the day. I always welcome an opportunity to get outside with your pups for a walk and play time. Please note that I do overnight pet sits with my two children. I supervise them at all times, and they are wonderful with animals, though please be sure your pets are comfortable and okay with children prior to sending a request for booking. I regard pet and house sitting as an honor and responsibility. Caring for what people love and cherish most. I bring my heart and presence to each assignment, insuring your pets are always in a safe loving and enriching environment, with an attentive and trustworthy caregiver.

“Kyle, has been great with our home and dogs, reliable, follows instructions well. We feel as comfortable having him here as family. He’s awesome!”

About: I’ve dealt with all sorts of animals from tiny chihuahuas to Great Danes. I have volunteered at shelters and exotic rescues in the past. I’m used to high maintence and balancing very different pet personalities to make sure the home stay stable and comforting. I am an incoming college freshman. So for now almost all day everyday is free but even when school starts most of my evenings and mornings will still be available! I prioritize creating a safe environment for all pets in my care. Their home is their safe space I will stick to your dogs schedule as best as possible. I will treat your pet and your home with the upmost integrity and send updates via photos, text, or call as often as you need/want.

About: I am the one who walks the dog(s) since childhood. I currently live with a chill pug and a very loving protective Cain Corso. I will most likely be able to devote attention all day due to my free schedule. Understanding the emotions of animals is simple for me. So anxious, scared, and lonely dogs are easy to communicate with. Its only the past 3 years that I have ever gotten paid to take care of dogs. My schedule could not be more free at the moment. I will update this if that ends up changing. I suppose it is nice to spend holidays with family though. My pug doesn’t go on long walks any more but I walk my big dog every day. I enjoy playing with my dogs everyday. My cain corso who appeared a little after the hurricane loves attention, usually in the form of belly rubs. My pug likes to cuddle and always has to be around the humans to feel at home. The dogs usually sleep in my bed. When I meet a new dog I let usually let them smell me and get lower so I am not standing over them.

About: My name is Alina and I would like to take care of your beloved pet. I am willing to do many things if needed without question. This means drop-in sitting, home stays, and dog walking. I will try my best to accommodate all of your specific needs for each pet. The people that I have pet sat for have say that I am great at my job. My prices are very reasonable. I am very reasonable when it comes to money and the time of the appointments. I am also honest and trustworthy. If you need anything like this, do not hesitate to contact me thru text, call, or email. I am looking forward to taking care of your pets for you when you need it. ATTENTION: I charge a $20 fee if your home is more than 35 mins from Sylva, NC. Pet care fits into my daily and/or weekly routine quite easily because due to me being on and off jobs which are mainly at night. I care for pets in your home by following all the instructions you give especially when it comes to going outside, with a leash or whatever the client prefers me to use.

About: I’ve had several dogs of my own and lived with others: lab/pit mix, pits, two German Shepherds, a Great Dane, a friendly chihuahua, and an evil chihuahua. I’ve rescued dogs off the street, and am all around good with animals. I have a job that gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I do travel from time to time, which is why I don’t have a pup of my own. I can be whatever your dog needs. If he’s old, we can relax together; full of energy? We can throw sticks around and run. Small and skittish? Food is a great incentivizer to build trust. I’m looking to make some extra cash and enjoy the company of your pets. I will make sure your dog is happy, fed, played with, and comfortable. I only take on one client at a time, so owners do not have to worry about their pets interacting with another owner's pets. Your loved ones will have my undivided attention.

“Courtney did a great job with all four pets! We have made plans to hire her again. Thanks, Courtney!”

“Randy was great watching my dog Weston who has high energy, and even keeping him comfortable during the Fourth of July weekend. I loved how he kept me updated on Weston’s play time and daily feedings while he stayed three nights in my home. Highly recommend Randy to all fur animals for great care.”

“Timothy was very quick to respond and set up time for a meet and greet for a very quick turnaround to watch our pups. I appreciated his communication and how he cared for our pups.”

Genevieve C.

“Shelley is professional, well communication skills and a lucky find. Our previous scheduled pet sitter ghosted us and we frantically interviewed 4 pet sitters 6 days before our trip. Shelly to the rescue! Shelley came to our house for a meet and greet and we were immediately pleased with her qualifications. Our three dogs, two elderly terriers and our young puppy all give their paw of approval to Shelley. She stayed at our house with our dogs for 8 days. She was neat and tidy. She sent multiple pictures, videos and messages during her stay. We definitely will use Shelley in the future and highly recommend.”

About: What sets me apart is my deep experience and intuitive understanding of animal behavior built over 12+ years of caring for pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’ve administered medications, handled dietary restrictions, and adapted care to suit anxious or shy animals. I take the time to bond with each pet so they feel safe, seen, and loved. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and I always prioritize communication so you can feel confident while you’re away. I’m currently working full-time Monday through Friday. Fridays I am available beginning 12:30pm and completely open on Saturdays and Sundays. Feel free to contact me if a different time is needed! At my home, pets have access to a secure yard for supervised outdoor time and a cozy indoor space to relax. I live in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of walking paths for daily walks and fresh air. I also have a small dog who will definitely keep your pup some company. Whether it’s daycare, overnight stays, or boarding, I maintain a clean, calm environment with structured routines, lots of play, and individualized attention based on your pet’s needs.

About: I have worked with dogs almost my whole life, I have experience with all ages and sizes! I treat every dog as if they were my own, with love and care! I assure you your dog will never be unhappy and will be taken care of from the moment you leave to the moment you get home! I am a student so I would tend to your dog in the morning and hang out with them in the evening and tuck them into bed. On weekends they will have my full attention if needed! During the summer I am flexible and will spend anytime you need me to with your pup! In the clients home I will abide by and respect boundaries provided to keep pets safe and cared for at all times. Their home will be treated as my own.

“Kara was very communicative. She took great care of Piper and was very respectful of my home. Highly recommend using Kara for your pets needs.”

About: Hello dog parents! I live in Travelers Rest near the Swamp Rabbit trail. I love to get out and walk and I would love to take your four-legged friend with me (but if it only has three legs that’s fine too!). I’m flexible for day care, dog walks and visits. I’m available every night of the week for house sittings and boarding. I love all dog breeds but my favorite breed is English Springer Spaniel. If there’s anything else you would like to know feel free to contact me. I can also do pet portraits at an additional cost. If you’re interested ask me for more information. I work remotely online in crypto so I’m home most of the day. I love to get out and go for walks. My dog Mildred just passed away naturally after 15 years so I am used to caring for her. I’m always very considerate when taking care of others pets because I know how hard it is to leave them with someone else! I have regular clients in Charleston, SC, and they are always happy with me watching their pets. I am very flexible with my work schedule so I’m able to let your pet outside and play with them frequently. I can be very attentive to your pets needs! I’m also very considerate when staying at a client’s home. And I always keep dogs on a leash when walking them.
