About: What sets me apart is the heart I put into every tail wag and paw print I treat your pet like family! I have two friendly dogs who love making new furry friends, so your pup will have playmates and never feel alone. From fun fetch sessions to cozy cuddle breaks, I make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home. I learn their routines, quirks, and favorite treats, and I always keep you in the loop with updates and photos because peace of mind matters just as much as playtime! Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because it’s already part of our daily life! With two dogs of our own and a stay at home wife who loves animals just as much as I do, there’s always someone home to give your pet attention, playtime, and plenty of love. We keep a consistent routine, and caring for animals is something we truly enjoy not just a job. Whether it’s walks, snuggles, or just keeping them company, your pet becomes part of our pack and is never left out or alone. When your dog’s in my home, they’re part of the family. With my two friendly pups around, there’s always someone to play with and lots of love to go around. I make sure to stick to their usual routine as much as possible feeding, walks, and chill time so they feel comfortable and happy. It’s all about making them feel safe and cared for, just like they’re home, so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

“Always a pleasure leaving our pup in KenLynn’s care! We absolutely trust her.”

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.

“Jason is excellent and the atmosphere for our pup is great”

About: From fur to feathers & scales I’ve cared for all kinds of animals for 10 years. I am experienced with administering medications (topical, pills, drops, etc).I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet(s) behind, but have no fear this animal lover will care for them until your return! I am currently stay at home, so I am available during the day, weekends, and night time if needed. I can work with your routine if your pet has a set schedule. I have a fenced yard, and 2 friendly pups if your pet likes to socialize. If your pet prefers to be alone I can schedule individual yard time for them. I do have a separate room for those that prefer to be crated or are not use to free roaming. If pets prefer to stay at their homes I can keep them company for however long they require, along with making sure their needs are taken care of (food, water, potty time, playtime).

About: Hi! I’m new to the area and would love to meet all the neighborhood animals! I recently moved here from Michigan to live with my husband here in the Slocum neighborhood in Havelock North Carolina. Back home I have two puppies, Millie and Ruby and here in North Carolina I have a puppy and kitty named pepper and maple. Back home I have been reliable to take care of my neighbors dog and cat to take care of them by feeding their dog and cat, taking their dog for walks, playing with their dog and cat and making sure their dog goes outside to go potty. I love being a parent to my puppy and kitty and it’s the best part of my day to come home to them 💕🐾🐶🐱 I’m unemployed and currently looking for a job but I’ll be able to take care of your animals during the day throughout the week and at night if needed. I have a fenced in backyard which is where I take out my puppy maple out to go potty. As mentioned before I have kitty named pepper as well. Maple is 6-7 months old and gets along well with other animals and is a very friendly and social dog. I take maple for walks and sometimes for runs often. We do have a pet scorpion as well but he stays in an enclosed glass cage away from the other animals. Pepper has her own room where she sleeps and has a litter box, a cat tree, and a food and water bowl. Both pepper and maple are allowed on the furniture and maple has a dog kennel and two dog beds but she sleeps in our room. And she also has a food and water bowl in the kitchen area. There are plenty of toys for the animals to play with but you are welcome to bring your own toys as well. I would also like to add that there will be no additional caretakers and it’ll just be me.

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

About: I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, from childhood to adulthood. Today, I have two Goldendoodles of my own and a kitten and plenty of hands-on experience caring for puppies. My background gives me patience, understanding, and a genuine love for pets of all kinds. I’m currently finishing my student teaching and am looking for a side gig that lets me do something I truly enjoy, spending time with animals. Right now, I have plenty of flexibility during the evenings and on weekends, which allows me to focus on caring for pets, whether that’s walks, playtime, or boarding. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly Goldendoodles who love having playmates. Your pet will be safe, supervised, and have plenty of company. If needed, I can easily crate your dog, follow specific routines, and provide a calm environment to make them feel at home.

“Thank you very much, Lannette, for taking care of Zeke for the day!”
