About: Your furry friend will receive the utmost care and attention from a dedicated husband and wife team, Mario and Sharee. Your pup will enjoy various playtime activities such as fetch and chase, and will also have the opportunity to forge lasting relationships with other dogs. Rest assured that your pet will receive the love and comfort they deserve while in our care. For the boarders who stay longer than a week (and if they can), we offer a vigorous exploration of our farm during a late afternoon or early evening walk. The emotional reward that comes from caring for dogs and educating the public about the fantastic creatures that they are is our top goal. Our facility prioritizes a hygienic and well-maintained living space for the dogs. We closely monitor and document their dietary intake, physical wellness, and behavioral patterns, examine animals for signs of illness or injury, feed and supply fresh, clean water to the dogs, maintain clean equipment and living spaces for the dogs, and provide lots of room for exercise! Among other amenities, we provide our pups with filtered water and high-quality freeze-dried treats. Inside our dog resting room, they can enjoy vaulted ceilings with big windows for adequate ventilation, fabulous floors, and extra bedding/pillows on the bed stand for the overnighters (although advisable to bring your own to introduce familiar smells.) Before their stay, we require the pups to have their fIt is imperative that you maintain the currency of your medication and vaccinations. Our availability is quite flexible, but we operate on a schedule. We carefully limit the number of dogs we admit at once, ensuring that they are never left unattended or alone. I offer secure fenced-in areas where dogs can freely explore and play. Throughout the day, they will be walked on leashes and given access to enclosed yards. Your dog's safety is my top priority; they will never be left unattended outside. I can also accommodate pets that require crates upon request.

“Alysha fulfilled my same-day request and their communication put my mind totally at ease. I appreciate her punctuality and promptness, and am grateful she could visit my boy at home when I couldn’t. Thanks, Alysha! 🐾”

About: Hi there! My name is Hayley and I have an extreme love and passion for ALL animals! Since I was a baby and got my first cat at 6 weeks old, I have grown up in a household full of animals with everything from cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, you name it, and those animals have taught me so much, enough that I want to give back to the local community and their animals! My specialties are with cats and dogs of any age, though if you have another animal in need of service, I am open to anything and ready to learn! Currently, I have two dogs (Jack Russells who are 2 and 8 yrs old) of my own that I have raised since they were both 8 weeks old. I have knowledge in feeding, medication management, daily exercise, enrichment activities such as tricks, routine care (bathing animals), hygiene maintenance, potty training, and as always, I strive to have strong, reliable communication with owners of your furry friends! I specialize in cats and dogs BUT if you are need of services for another animal, please dont hesitate to reach out as I am willing to help, learn whatever I need to, and give some extra love to your pet! AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th. Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ Mon-Sun: 8am-2:30pm (schedule varies but I will try my best to work something out with you!!) Meet and Greets: Scheduled meetings BEFORE desired sitting dates; I come to your home to get to know you, your fur babies, and the required schedule/rules. (I leave this up to the client's preference but I usually recommend it!) (CAN provide services before/after hours when requested!!) *AFTER August 10th, all services will be unavailable until December as I return to school outside of the area. Please do NOT book past August 10th.* Thanks so much for understanding! ☺️ As I previously mentioned, I have two dogs (both Jack Russells) of my own that are 2 and 8 years old. I strive to maintain a clean space and comfortable for my pets where they can relax and follow their usual routines with no worries. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide daily exercise and playtime, and ensure their safety by always supervising. They have designated rest areas (although I do allow animals on furniture), plenty of enrichment activities/toys, and lots of affection of course! I also have a large yard where my dogs love to run around and play with toys (when outside, they are always supervised) and a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks! I am always keeping my eyes on them, making sure they are healthy, eating/drinking, and exercising correctly. In a clients home is a bit different as this is not my personal space. I tend to follow the routine/schedule exactly as written and complete the usual duties such as feeding, walking, playtime, waste/litter cleanup, etc. I keep the home clean, ensure safety over the property and animals, and provide regular updates and photos to owners during each visit. I always double check and make sure all pets are comfortable, safe, and have everything they need in their space before I leave.

“This is our first time using Ashley to let our dog out in the middle of the day. She is fantastic! Our dog is weary of strangers and Ashley handled the situation really well- she went at his pace and spent some extra time with him. She sent a lot of photos and a detailed description of her time with Rowan. I would definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and have experience caring for both big dogs, small dogs, and cats. Back home in Tennessee, I have 2 Yorkies and a Goldendoodle, and I’ve also helped neighbors, friends, and family care for their pets over the years. I’m patient, dependable, and love making pets feel comfortable and cared for. I currently have a very flexible schedule that allows me to work around your pet’s specific needs and routine. I typically work mornings during the week and am usually home by mid afternoon, but I can adjust my schedule as needed for walks, potty breaks, feedings, playtime, and medication schedules. I make it a priority to give pets plenty of attention, consistency, and companionship so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I always do my best to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while in my care. I pay close attention to each pet’s normal routine, energy level, feeding schedule, and any special instructions so they can stay as stress free as possible. I’m experienced with walks, potty breaks, playtime, crating if needed, and giving pets space when they need it. I also make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.

“We have used Brooke twice now on Rover and will be more than happy to rebook again! She has been incredibly reliable, responsive, and loving to our dog!”

About: Since I was younger I have been house sitting for families. I am very passionate about pets, and would love to be able to help you out! I have a full time work schedule but have very random weekdays off. I can be your girl for those random drop ins when you’re not able to get home! I currently live with my cat Nelly and family dog, Roo. My dog is getting much older so him and I like to go on shorter walks these days.

“Meredith was wonderful! She was available last minute and flexible with a meet and greet the next day. Our Ahsoka definitely appreciated the walk, companionship, and treat!”

About: After a 30 year career in IT, it was time to pursue my passion…caring for animals. I love all animals, big and small and look forward to providing loving care for yours. I grew up on a small farm and have owned one myself for the past 11 years, giving me extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals including donkeys, goats, horses, cows, ducks, turkeys, chickens, guineas, cats, and dogs. I’m also open to care for other furry friends as well! Additionally, I've just started Metro to Meadows Farm & Pet Sitting LLC. I'm incorporated in NC and insured. I'll work with you to provide services that meet your schedule and needs. I can’t guarantee a precise time (dealing with animals and traffic) but will be there within an hour of the requested time. Dogs are priority for schedule consistency due to the need for potty breaks. My earliest visits are 6 AM and the latest is 8 PM every day of the week. A meet & greet session is required for all new clients prior to a scheduled engagement (free of charge) to ensure the best personalized care for you and your pet. I'm very picky about how my own pets and home are cared for and will ensure the same high standards are provided for yours. Before you leave, please make sure the Contact and Pet Information Sheet is completed. I will also need access to your home/space where pets are located so this would include things like a key or key pad code, and alarm code.

About: I’ve pet sat my friends animals, and they’ve had so many! Senior dogs that have accidents and have behavioral issues. Exotic pets, of many kids. Every morning, I fill the cat and water bowl in my room, weekly I clean the bowls. For my dogs, whenever my parents don’t feed them cause they are out, I feed them and fill their water. I brush their coats, and try to give them baths every few weeks or so! However the pet parents would like, but I care for what is best for their health. I understand each pet is different and needs different things. I can bathe the animals depending on behavior, my right leg doesn't haven't as much feeling since surgery and cant handle a lot of big pressure.

About: Hey dog pawmily! I’m Hadassah, Hade for short! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a child. As a child, we went through experiences with a wide variety of pets including multiple dogs, four cats, a bunny, fish, and three parakeets. Caring for so many different animals has truly taught me patience, responsibility, and truly how to meet each pet’s unique needs. Currently, I have and take care of my dog, Diogee, who is a 3 year old Maltese-Shitzu mix and enjoys meeting new friends. Having my dog, Diogee, by my side throughout my transition as a transfer student in my senior year at UNC chapel hill has shown me just how important pets are to our lives. Hopefully your dog will either have the opportunity to meet/walk/play with me (yay!) or stay in my safe HOA home located in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas and a new dog park currently being built nearby. I, Hadassah, can assure you that when your dog is cared for by me, they’ll be treated with the same care and patience that I give my own. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my routine since I care for my own dog, Diogee, every day. 🐶 I'm available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and boarding depending on availability. In my home, pets will receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, fresh cool water, meals according to their schedule, and a safe, pet-friendly environment. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings and maintain their normal routine.

“Really appreciate Meredith tried with my moody dog multiple times.”

About: I have been a fur mom since I was about 12 years old and have experience with all kinds of pets, including reptiles, chickens, hamsters, Guinea pigs, birds, & chinchillas. I also use to work at a pet store doing pet care which involved lots of handling, cleaning and keeping a healthy environment for the animals. I am currently self employed and I make my own schedule so I am flexible with my availability. Mondays and Thursday are more flexible but I have time on the other days of the week as well. I’m clients homes I would give your pets the attention and lovin’ that they need and make sure that they are always safe. I will keep clean after them and make sure that they are cared for as if they were my own.

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, from dogs and cats to even baby ducks. I’ve been pet sitting for years and love making animals feel at home. I work and study from home, so pets fit perfectly into my day. I plan walks, meals, and playtime around my schedule to give them full attention. I care for every pet like my own. I keep their environment calm, clean, and safe, follow their schedule, and make sure they always feel loved abd secure.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life! My family had a wonderful mutt that arrived the same year that I was born, so he was essentially my puppy sibling. He has long passed away but I also have many years of experience dog sitting for my family and friends and can provide references. My current place won't let me have pets, so it will be awesome to get my fix by taking care of your wonderful dogs! I can't wait to meet them. I have a full time Monday-Friday job, but I am available on weekends, and after 5:30 during the week. I can be flexible, and try to accommodate your ad your pet's needs! Safety is my first priority. I will never have company or even food delivery inside of your home, and will never provide your address to anyone else, unless it is an emergency, in which case I will contact you directly first and get your permission to call my emergency contact (my mother)! I will make sure I feed and walk your dogs(s) consistently, and of course play with them and give them attention while you are away. I do not mind doing light housework, and I am comfortable with sitting for more than one dog.

About: I love animals, I had a Yorkie for 10 years and he was my best friend. I trained my dog and he was so independent. I'm currently working part time as a personal care Aide. My schedule is prey flexible. And gives me plenty of time to love on some animals. I have plenty of yard for our fur friends to play. And a nice neighborhood for a nice walk. I also have two children who love pets

About: I’ve grown up with cats and animals, even helped my own cat give birth (covid times) and currently have 2 cats of my own. I’ve taken care of larger dogs as well, sweet pit bulls are my favorite! I am accommodating and love meeting new people and animals. I’m available to care for animals on extended weekends and weekdays if needed. I am located in downtown Durham and can access your pets quickly if needed. My schedule is very flexible and I am punctual. I love playing with my 2 cats and parent’s dog as I believe playtime is important for stimulation. When I can’t take them on a walk, I find ways to stimulate them, such as indoor blanket puzzles and toy play! I can accommodate each animal per their needs.

“Tamara was great! Prompt, friendly, a good communicator, and good with Avery.”
