“Magan is polite and professional. The love and care she gives to our pets enables us to enjoy being away from them without worry! I just hope the good reviews don’t tie her up for the next time we need her!!!! :)”

About: Animals are one of my favorite things in the world. I can take care of all different species, but am most knowledgeable with dogs and cats. I can administer medications, bathe, excercise and more. But most importantly, I can make sure they’re happy and safe! I am home from college for the summer, so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies and can provide flexible scheduling too! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I follow feeding schedules, give plenty of attention and playtime, and can crate pets if needed. I also keep owners updated with pictures and messages for peace of mind.
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little girl, I have 2 dogs of my own. I have also helped neighbors, friends, and family walking and grooming their dogs. I currently am just focusing on my 1st year of college. I am a single mother so I wanted to still be able to spend time with my son as well as school. I only go to school Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10-12am, so I have plenty of time to make sure your pets are well taken care of. I have 2 well trained dogs, who love all animals. I also have a huge backyard with a bunch of toys for them to play.
“Kathleen is truly amazing! She cares for your pets as if they were her own, showing so much attention, kindness, and genuine love. Leaving your pet is always stressful, but she made the whole experience so much easier by keeping me updated on my cat’s day. She’s incredibly thoughtful, and I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for exceptional care for their pets and peace of mind when you’re away from home.”

“I just started working with Jocylyn and have had to do a lot of rearranging of our schedule. She has been so great about it. My dogs loved her and I know we will be working with her again!!”

About: From a young age, I’ve been responsible for caring for animals of many kinds, from hamsters to horses, with dogs always being a big part of my life. This experience has made me attentive, patient, and dependable when caring for dogs. I’m comfortable following routines, reading basic behavior cues, and providing consistent, loving care. I treat every dog as my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I am a full time student during the week and also have a part time job, however I am available for drop in visits during the week, except for Tuesday's after 12:00pm. I can visit up to two times per day per household. My schedule allows me to drop in early in the morning before school and then stop by later in the evenings. I am also available for overnight stays full time. Tuesday’s have a little bit of conflict for, I am at school from 12:00pm to 7:00pm. If an overnight stay goes through a Tuesday someone would need to let your pet out during those hours if necessary I keep each dog’s routine as consistent as possible by closely following feeding, walking, and care instructions. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide a safe, calm environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I respect my clients’ homes and make sure their dogs feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.
About: I was raised around animals my whole life and I absolutely love any and all animals. I have years of experience with dogs/cats, I also have a pet pig! I would love to care for your furry friends! I work in a hospital and my schedule is 8-5 Monday-Friday. I have free evenings/weekends and would absolutely love to spend that time caring for your pets! I have one female dog who is a little over a year old. She is super playful and friendly and would make a great playmate if needed! I have plenty of toys and treats for any animals and a crate as well.
About: I love all dogs & cats, I mean it’s hard not to love them! I’ve been taking care of cats & dogs since I was a little kid. I’ve always been the one to pet sit for my family. I’ve even worked at a no kill non profit shelter. I’m unable to have an animal of my own at the moment so pet sitting is the closest I can do to having one. I promise to love & care for your pet like I would my own! I’m a military wife who works from home so my schedule is very flexible to yours! I also have a 5yr old daughter & a 2 yr old son who are acclimated to cats, dogs, any farm animal, etc. Sometimes they will be with me (I would let you know before we book)! Im also open to setting up meet & greets with or without them there. My house has lots of land to explore on with no other animals at this time. In your home I will attend to only your animals as needed. I will follow all of your pet instructions to a T.
About: Hey there!! I've been around pets my whole life and absolutely LOVE them. We had a dog (dachshund) growing up as well as other animals like Rabbits and Guinea Pigs! I've had cats and dogs throughout my life as well. My bestie dog was named Sadie (corgi/husky mix) who was 17 when I had to let her go to the rainbow bridge March 2021...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do 💔 I had her since she was about 1 yr old. She had a pacemaker put in about 2 yrs prior to passing and had a great life but I miss her like crazy. I've been Petsitting a long time but over the passed couple of years it's really helped heal my heart and has truly been a blessing. Most of my clients are from word of mouth over the years but I have this to help others get in touch with me if they need some help! I live in Lake Toxaway but I have jobs anywhere from Highlands, Trillium, Cullowhee, Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Toxaway to Brevard. I mostly stay at my client's homes but I do bring some dogs to my house if it ends up being a better option. I've done puppy care and senior care as well so that doesn't phase me. I also can do medication or treatments needed. If I'm booked up for in home pet care then I can do drop ins 2x a day for cats 🐱 I can possibly offer that for dogs too but they usually need it 3x a day. So that would all depend on my availability. I work part time caretaking properties/cleaning, and childcare so I'm mostly home! When I do need to leave I'm not gone more then 3-6 hrs, depending on the job. I can travel further if I can move jobs around in my area. I'm very flexible and try to make things work if I can! I currently don’t have a fenced in yard but I will walk around my neighborhood and have a decent sized backyard. I treat your babies like they're my own so they get lots of lovin. Sometimes we go to the State Park too! If they like car rides I'll take them to check my mail or little errands.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable animal lover who treats every pet like family. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, and I pride myself on being attentive, patient, and trustworthy. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being well cared for. I understand that every animal is unique, and I’ll always follow your instructions closely to keep their routine consistent. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your I currently have a remote nurse job so I have one plenty of free time to play with and take care of your fur babies. My 3 dogs are friendly and play well with others. I have crates where I can board dogs at night or during nap time or seperate them if needed. Also offer the dogs to run free in the house if that’s what they are accustomed to .

“It was such a pleasure meeting Stacie, and getting to know her a little, along with hearing about her own love of animals! I so appreciated the photos she sent since my two cats are new to each other and she was totally thorough in caring for them!”

About: Since I was a kid, I have always been surrounded by animals. Whether it is my own, or volunteering at shelters around the state, I have always found joy when I spend my time with dogs, cats, etc. I’m a student at Clemson University, staying in the area for the summer. I’ll have plenty of time for walks, games of fetch, and more! I have two friendly dogs of my own and a fenced yard for the comfort of all animals. I can also separate your dog with crate training if needed.
About: I'm comfortable with all breeds and sizes, and I have experience administering medications and handling special dietary needs. I'm dedicated to providing the best care to your furry baby. I'm currently in school so i'm always free during the day. I will be happy to accommodate any work schedules and any availability as well. I follow the instructions given to me by pet owners to make sure not to mess up their daily routines to be best of my ability.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. I have an undying passion and love for animals of all ages, shapes, and sizes. I would call myself a ‘dog whisperer.’ All of my friends find it amazing that I love dogs as much as I do.Being that I also may have a bit of OCD when it comes to cleanliness— your home will not only be cared for but will be spotless upon your return! If there are plants in the home as well, I can also make sure that those get watered and cared for as needed. It’s an understatement to say I am attentive to detail. I am currently a full time student at Clemson University with a hybrid schedule and am available(flexible) on Mondays and Wednesdays for drop in visits and dog walking. I live in a house with a fully fenced in backyard. I can host no more than 2 other dogs at a time. Myself and my partner own 2 dogs. An incredibly sweet and gently Doberman and a spunky Chiweenie!
“Keri was awesome! She communicated consistently and effectively, came through on very short notice, and was wonderful with our two dogs. On top of that, she was flexible, adaptable, and helped out when some issues came up while we were out of town. I’d recommend her to anyone and would happily request her services again. I’m sure that her students love her as much as our pups do. -Erik & Alea”
