“Lindsay has been a great help walking out young energetic GSD! She was professional, quick to respond, and caring! She’s been a huge help and I greatly appreciate her!”
About: I have had pets as part of my family my whole life. I treat each one I meet like they are my own and have provided care for friends and family throughout the years. During college I helped pet sitting future guiding eyes for the blind dogs. My current dog is now a senior at 11 yo American Bully. We have struggled with allergies since the day I adopted him at 10 months old. I know how to pay extra attention to skin and ear and can administer oral or topically meds. I work remote and have a flexible schedule. During your busy days I can provide drop ins for a bathroom breaks, play time, extra cuddles, and/or a walk. When I’m with your pets and in their space I will provide a safe and kind environment. They should never feel uncomfortable or nervous. As my dog has aged he has become more cautious, causing me to have to be more aware and respectful of the situations he’s in.
“Brianna is AWESOME! She took my two dogs for a walk today, and I was extremely impressed by her professionalism and love of animals! She was very prompt when corresponding with me, and treated my dogs with love & great care throughout the time she was with them. I highly recommend her for any job which you are considering her!”
About: Hi, I’m LaLa! I believe every pet deserves Dog-Mom level care—the kind where they’re treated like family, not just a client. With years of experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where your dog can truly relax. I’m extremely patient and gentle, whether I’m bonding with an anxious rescue, entertaining an energetic puppy, or tending to the needs of a sweet senior. I pay close attention to every detail, from their feeding schedule to their favorite belly rub spot, and I’m skilled at reading body language to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. I provide regular updates, cute photos, and even fun paw report cards so you always know how your fur-baby is doing. Life can be unpredictable, and I do my best to be flexible and understanding when schedules shift. Most of all, I love building connections with each pet I care for—because to me, they’re not “just pets,” they’re family. 🐾 Im available Thursday to Sunday. On Thursday and Friday only I’m available after 5:30pm (due to me having a full time job from home). Saturday and Sunday I’m available all day 🙂 For any Drop-In visits or Walks I do require a complementary meet and greet before booking to ensure your pet is comfortable with me and their “home space” ❤️ Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first in your home. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs before each visit. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as given, and always make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean, calm environment. I respect your space—leaving your home just as I found it—and keep doors locked, alarms set, and your pet safely indoors or secured outside as requested. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive to body language, especially with shy or anxious pets. You’ll receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I am a musician and writer with a life-long affinity towards dogs. My wife and I recently had two small/medium dogs that we cherished as members of our family. Since their passing, I am enjoying the time I can spend with your pets! I work from home when not traveling as a touring bluegrass musician, which brings me around the world. While I am home in Chapel Hill I have full flexibility to attend your pets needs. I enjoy walking the miles of forest trails behind our home and love to bring dogs along. I prefer walking each separately so they can follow their natural stride. Our previous dogs required daily medications, so I am experienced with administering that and other special needs. I look forward to meeting you and your pets. I love hitting the forest trail outside my backdoor for my own excercise. I can be flexible to your pet’s needs and fit their normal routine. In our home or yours, I give animals respect without letting them run the show. Exercise and play time is an important part of our day so all can be relaxed and happy.
“He is very gentle and friendly with my baby girl. She always excited when he comes to get her. He is definitely a hidden gem and I am glad we found him. If he not available we will wait until he is. He is amazing and always make you feel safe giving your baby over to him.”
About: I’ve been assisting with pet care for various friends/neighbors for the past decade and truly have not met an animal I didn’t love! I am available for pet walks, check-ins and occasional housing. My service industry job allows me to provide mid week availability for all pet needs, my weekends are Tuesday-Thursday where I’m always seeking out things to do! I have a fenced in home with a deck and welcome pets into my home. I’m able to provide undivided attention to them by providing playtime/walks when needed and a comfortable space for relaxing once they are ready for rest.
About: I’ve always loved animals, and now I get to work with them all the time at the Orange County Animal Shelter. I am president of Animal Welfare Club at my school and had a zen dog puppy preschool in 2nd grade😁. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs, puppies full of energy, older dogs who need a little extra help, and shy pups who just need patience and love. I’m used to giving meds, helping with basic training, and making sure every dog feels safe and happy. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I’ll make sure your dog gets all the care, love, and attention they need while you’re away. Right now I’m on summer break from high school, so I have a pretty flexible schedule! I work early mornings and finish by 10 AM, and I have another job only on Saturdays. That means I’m available for pet care on weekends and weekdays, depending on the time. I always make sure I have enough time to give each pet the care and attention they need. In my home, I have a fenced-in yard and one dog of my own, but she can be picky around other dogs. I also live with my family and we foster animals, so I’m not able to care for other dogs in my home right now. However, I’m happy to care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable. I always follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and love while you’re away.

My schedule fluctuates from week to week— but I do work from home, and I am available most weekends. There are other dogs present in the home that are super excited and playful with other animals as well! Large, fenced in yard for pets to roam. Neighborhood setting for walks. I also have an addition/enclosed room off of the back porch for our pups to have their own space (heating and air). Pets are allowed inside the home as well!
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats. I have 3 dogs and 5 cats. I’m very experienced with both. I use to watch my aunts dogs for her while she was at work.

About: I have had cats and dogs throughout my life and have always been an animal lover. I have lots of experience with cats, dogs and horses and animals are comfortable with my calm nature. I am an honest and ethical person who believes in treating your pets the way I would want mine to be treated. My schedule may vary from week to week, but will revolve around the needs of the animals; generally, I work part-time from home and have a very flexible schedule. In your home, I can care for small to medium dogs, and cats of all sizes, as far as walking, playing, feeding, scratches, cuddles and belly rubs:-). I am only hesitant to walk large dogs if they may pull on the leash. Large, laid back, calm older dogs should be fine if they need to go for walks on the leash.

Brenda M.
“Hello, good day. My experience with Brenda Macias for dog care has been excellent. She is a person with a strong sense of responsibility and love. This sentiment is not only evident in her presence but also confirmed by the animals themselves. She owns three dogs whom she adores. One of them, Vela, she adopted from the streets despite Vela having suffered from abuse and consequently having difficulty walking. Additionally, Vela no longer has teeth, so she requires special food. Brenda welcomed Vela as part of her family, and Vela reciprocates that gratitude every day. Therefore, I highly recommend her for the care of your dogs.”
Laura S.
“I have known Laura for many years and she has cared for my pets when I was away on vacations. She is a very caring person and kind. She pays attention to detail. You wouldn’t have to worry if she was taking care of your animals.”
