“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”

About: Hi! my name is Denique and I have a strong love for all types of animals. I am a 24yr old graduate from A&T University with a major in Animal Science. I have been caring for pets ever since I was a toddler. Caring for a pet in my household has always been my responsibility and I’ve done so very well, although I currently do not own a pet at the moment it just makes me more passionate to care for others. Making sure your pet is happy, safe, and having a good time is one of my main priorities. I am so excited to care for your pets and give them the best time. I promise I will be extremely loving to your animals. <3 I hope you decide to pick me as your pet sitter, you will not be dissatisfied. Feel free to contact me anytime. I currently have a job at a vet hospital where I tend to work long shifts throughout the week. In order to make sure your pet gets the most quality time they deserve I schedule my time where I am available to fulfill the needs of your pet. Your animals safety is one of my main priorities because I want to make sure they are always comfortable. When outside I prefer to leash your pet or hold them for their protection until we are in a safe area.
“Alex is the best, from the first meeting, my dog Bebe was just smitten with Alex. I could tell Bebe would be in good hands with Alex and I wasn't wrong. I got lots of pictures of Bebe while I was gone and Alex not only took excellent care of my baby but also my home. It was nice to know that both were taken care of while I was away. You can tell from how Alex interacts with animals, that they are their passion and it shows in the care that they provide. I would definitely have Alex watch my baby again and recommend them to all my friends!”
“This was the first time I was leaving my fur babies overnight with someone other than friends or family and Kaycey was amazing! She was able to offer a meet and greet for my in-home request ASAP and meeting her was like meeting a friend! The care she provided for my pets was great! She was responsive, informative, and put me at ease. We will 100% use her again!!”
“Riley took care of our boys while we were away for a week. She sent a daily picture which helped ease our minds while being away. Our boys were happy when we returned home to them.”
“Noel is amazing. She’s kind, attentive and connected easily with my dogs. She sent pictures and texts during the weekend and addressed their needs exceptionally well. Teddy & Pip were happy and relaxed when we got home.”
“Tiffani is great! She’s so responsive, accommodating, and, most importantly, great with our dogs. I appreciated the pictures and updates while we were away, and her being flexible when we had a last-minute schedule change. Will definitely ask her to dog sit for us again in the future!”

About: In addition to having family pets since before I could walk, I started a neighborhood pet sitting business with my sister when I was 10, I worked for a pet sitting/dog walking company out of college, and have cared for more friends and neighbors’ pets than I could count. I am experienced in giving oral medication and caring for more special needs pets. I work from home and can do longer morning and evening visits and short midday visits. Visits would have to fit around my meeting schedule so I won’t be able to accommodate a strict midday break schedule. I Will follow whatever specific guidance you provide for your pet to ensure that there is minimal disruption to their world while you are away.
“Caitlynn took great care of our two pups while we were away! My one senior dog needed some special attention and meds while we were gone.
