“Sherrie was so sweet to my young dog! I dropped my dog, Rosie, off for doggy daycare while I went to work. I picked her up around 4pm and she was exhausted! Sherrie has a great outdoor space with a huge yard and kept me updated with pictures of her playing fetch with my dog all day! She was a phenomenal Rover!”

About: Hello! My name is Katy! I have had animal experience my whole life from horses, goats, cats, BIG dogs, tiny dogs and everything in between. I grew up at the coast of North Carolina and helped my town rehabilitate several different animals. I am a Therapist in training so I have availability to watch your fur babies! I am a therapy student so I have flexibility throughout the week during my internship. I have many fur babies myself and several farm animals as well. I live on a small farm with several ducks, doggies and guinea pigs. We sit in the middle of 14 acres which provides a safe environment for outdoor play and a large porch for relaxing. The inside of our home is also pet proof so no toxic plants, cords or anything that could harm our fur babies.
“Dawn was very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. She was friendly and easy to communicate with. My dogs were very happy when I picked them up and were exhausted on the drive home. Very pleased.”

About: Hi, I’m Elle! With over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for animals big and small—from playful pups and cuddly cats to goats, peacocks, and everything in between—I offer pet care that goes far beyond the basics. Whether your furry friend needs a fresh groom, a daily walk, or overnight companionship, I provide reliable, loving service tailored to their needs. I’ve built my business on trust, patience, and a true passion for animals. Pets aren’t just clients to me—they’re family. When you leave your pet in my care, you can rest easy knowing they’re in safe, capable, and compassionate hands. Caring for animals isn’t just my job—it’s my full-time passion. Because this is my main focus, your pets receive my full attention, love, and care. You can feel confident knowing they’re in experienced, trustworthy hands. I treat each pet like family, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort is my priority. During overnight stays, I offer baths, grooming, and cuddles—yes, they can sleep in the bed! I don’t use outdoor pens; instead, we enjoy playtime at the dog park and lots of indoor love. I care for each fur baby like they’re my own, giving them a safe, happy, and pampered stay.
About: My name is Jiji. My house in Morganton. I have had dogs and cats growing up. I am a registered nurse and I enjoy taking care of ppl and animals. I have 2 border collies of my own that live on my property. They are well trained and well socialized. My neighbor’s dog also periodically stop by the house to play with the dogs as well. Apollo is 5 yrs and Alila is 3 yrs. They love making new friends and are always looking for new fluffs to play with :). I’m a registered nurse. I typically work three days a week. I plan my schedule ahead of time so please let me know in advance so I can accommodate the new fluff(s) :). It really depends on the animal. My dogs love playing with new friends in the yard. They’re welcome to share with whatever my dogs play with as well. They both love tug of war. Apollo loves fetch. They both like herding. My dogs love playing tag as well.
About: I am a registered nurse and mom in the WNC area. I grew up back home in Ohio with my golden doodle and I helped train him and I do have experience giving medications with him because he takes glucosamine and hemp for his joints now that he is older. I have also helped watch my friends and families dogs over the years. I am now living near Asheville. I can’t have dogs at my place because I currently don’t have a fenced in yard and am renting but I can always come over to your place to take care of your dog(s). I have house sat and pet sat for people through this app before while they go on vacation and let me know if you would like their reference. I am a RN who works part time in Asheville. Let me know if you need certain dates and I am more than happy to either walk or take care of your pet overnights or on holidays. I could take your dog to the nearby park by my house and I love walking so we could go on walks on the trail.

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Elle and the incredible care she provides for my dog Xena. From the very first moment they met, I could tell there was an instant bond. What impresses me most is Elle’s attention to detail and the personalized care she gives. She remembers Xena's little quirks, routines. Elle is not just someone who watches over my dog—she genuinely connects with her, understands her needs. But the biggest sign of how amazing Elle is? My dog absolutely lights up when she sees her. Her tail starts wagging the second she walks through the door, and Xena practically runs into her arms!!. Dogs are the best judges of character, and mine adores Elle. That tells me everything I need to know. 5 stars!!!”
