About: I am not currently working so I have all the time in the world to dedicate to the pups! In general I'm quite flexible, I like to fly by the seat of my pants. Within the past 9 years my brother got a Basset Hound, (who has since passed), my parents got a German Shepherd, (who has since passed), and I got a Shepherd/Hound rescue pup. Man so I miss having pup around! I've quickly become the dog sitter because I like dogs more than people! I am very comfortable with big dogs and open to working with smaller dogs. I love taking long walks with the pups. If the dog is willing I love to teach them new things! I have all of the patience in the world for dogs. They are and will always be my number one priority at all times. I will respect and follow any rules or guidelines you have knowing full well how much work goes into training and wouldn't want to cause any set backs. I'm a stay at home mom of a 5 year boy. He goes everywhere with me and is also amazing with dogs. So if your dog just needs some company or a nice walk, I'm your girl! I care for any pet as if it were my own. Any specific directions given to me will be followed to a "T". I know how important pets are and I treat them as such.

“As always, Meg is so compassionate, caring, and gentle with our kitty. She always ensures to feed her her food with her meds, and makes sure her water bowl and litter are attended to. She always spends quality time giving her lots of pets and cuddles and making her feel at ease. We couldn’t recommend Meg enough, if you choose her to watch your little fur baby, you will never be disappointed. Thank you Meg!”


“Cory came for a meet and greet and we all took a walk together with my dog. He is a very nice young man with a sincere love for dogs. We will be calling on Cory when we need a sitter.”


“This is our 2nd time with Kaitlyn & she is great! She does all we ask & is appreciative of our tips beforehand with how to care for our cats. Very kind & considerate - would recommend her to anyone & will hopefully continue to have her watch our kitties when needed😊”


About: Hi! Some of my first baby pics are with dogs and only recently has that changed. I grew up almost always with my grandmother showing, boarding, grooming, training dogs, and attended many shows with her each year. I even showed a few dogs! As an adult she gave me my first dog, a red male Doberman. I soon became interested in rescue, so volunteered and fostered with the Tarheel Weimaraner Rescue in NC. I fostered four dogs and only kept one- which is pretty good I think! I also worked at a doggy daycare for over a year in NC, introducing me to first hand experience with different breeds, daily meds, senior dog care, and managing a group. Over a decade has come and passed with my 3 amazing dogs, and I was soon empty nesting. I want to offer *walking and running* for larger breed, healthy dogs that need more exercise. My schedule of availability is mostly early morning, late evening, and weekends with limited availability during the week. Schedule will be updated on my profile I am offering walking and running services initially outside of my home; the answer to this is a discussion that would happen with the client prior to hiring!

About: I've been a dog lover my whole life, and before I had a dog/pet of my own, I would walk about 6 dogs 3 times a week for friends, which has given me experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am an enthusiastic and active dog walker, and I can create a fun environment to keep your dog active and mentally stimulated. I'm skilled at reading a dog's body language, so I'll be able to tell when your dog is happy, anxious, or just needs a break. I'll take the time to earn your dog's trust, whether through gentle petting, interactive playtime, or just quiet company. My goal is to make your time away stress-free by providing the best care for your dog and your home. My full-time, remote job gives me the flexibility to provide exceptional pet care. Since I work from home, I can offer frequent potty breaks, midday walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. This allows me to adapt to your pet's specific routine and schedule, ensuring they get the care they need without being left alone for long periods. I'm also available for bookings on weekends, offering complete coverage for your pet. When caring for pets in your home, I follow all instructions and routines to the letter. I prioritize the security of your home by ensuring all doors and windows are locked and secured. I'm also mindful of keeping your home tidy, especially by cleaning up any pet-related messes. I'll make sure to keep a close eye on your pet to ensure their safety and well-being.

About: I’ve been a pet parent for over 20 years. In our home, we have a cat and a senior dog who is friendly with everyone. We have a giant fenced yard for all our furry friends to enjoy and play. I am well versed at caring for all types of pets and those that require extra care. Neighbors and friends ask for my help all the time! I work from home full time M-F and rarely leave home for more than a few hours at a time. I can walk dogs in the morning, evening, and give frequent potty breaks! I have a fenced yard and a dog to keep your fur babies company. I can crate your dog if needed or let them hang out with me while I work. It’s your choice on what I can do to best meet your pet’s schedule!

About: I have experience with kittens, puppies as well as older cats and dogs. I treat each pet as if they are my own. I bring a sense of humor, calming presence and strong work ethic to all of my clients. I am a music teacher who has summers off, so I am available every day. I can be flexible with your plans and scheduling needs. I have a fenced in yard and two dogs of my own that can keep your fur babies company. I am also willing to to crate them if needed or preferred.

About: Hi there! I’m Net.🙂 I’m the go-to gal of my friends and family for watching their four-legged kid - and I love that reputation. I’m here to help ease those worries of last-minute changes to your everyday itinerary or lessen stress when being cross-country on travel - I get that because being there has done the same! And what is more of a bonus for me to make another pal? Seems like a win-win situation if you ask me. For as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated and compassionate when it comes to animals. They have always been one of my favorite things in this world. Growing up with birds, rabbits, cats, dogs, you name it - really helped that love grow and helped me to also learn how to be responsible, coordinate time management and even how to properly take care of them along the way at a young age. Fast-forward - I took the next step to wanting to know and learn more about them. So I signed myself up back in 2017 and took an online course to more knowledge and become a vet assistant where I later on finished my hours at a local vet hospital. I was taught valuable skills, such as patience in the field, restraint techniques, administering medication and the importance of detail, etc. I even have some background in doggy daycare! What can I say? I can’t get enough of these little guys. Learning everything from grooming and bathing techniques, to animal behavior of personalities and the ability to understand each animal’s needs and anxieties. Don’t forget the play! I’ll even put on a good jam for us too and break out in a dance party. Putting more experience under my belt in something that fills my soul and cup. I always say when you enjoy something you love it first, and it’s a job second. Hopefully, I’ll have the opportunity and chance to meet your dog, too! 🐶🤍 I’m currently working early in the morning, so I have a lot of downtime to take care of and hang out with your little one(s). Monday through Saturday, I’m free after 12:30pm and all day Sundays. Occasionally, I could have an extra day off during the middle of the week. Just shoot me a message! I will be more than happy to accommodate what I can. I have a whole pack at home myself. Did I mention that? Yup! Five in total to be exact. Ranging from all different breeds, the oldest is almost 13 and the youngest just turned 1. So keeping them occupied is definitely something we have adjusted and accommodated to. We have a whole fenced-in yard, a toy box that can't fit much left, walks are a very essential part of our daily life and activity, and we tend to rotate our pack in groups from going to breweries/wineries, to hikes and even events such as dog parks, farmers market and whatever else events tend to be happening at the time. If this is something you're interested in acclimating and a small dose over time, happy to bring them along with! Of course, the occasional cupcakes and cookies I make for my kids at home. Let me know if they have any allergies and I will be happy to bring a small bag over when I stop by! 🙂

“Kaelin was amazing! I felt comfortable leaving my dogs in her care she is very attentive and patient and she followed all of my instructions perfectly. Kaelin frequently updated me on my dogs progress and went above and beyond to make sure my dogs were happy during my time away 🙂”


About: Hi there! I'm Bree, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and loved when you’re away. That’s why I always communicate clearly with pet parents to understand their needs before taking up a job. I want the best experience for all parties. I can send regular updates, photos, and even a few videos to keep you in the loop! I'm currently working 3 days a week, usually Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays from 8 am to 3 pm at the latest. Pet care can fit into my schedule very well, depending on the needs and wants of the owners and pets.

I treat every pet with the same level of love, respect, and attention I give my own. In your home, I do my best to keep your pet’s routine consistent—mealtimes, walks, play, and quiet time—because I know how important structure is for their well-being. I’m careful to follow your instructions exactly, and I always double-check details like feeding guidelines, medication, and home security (doors, gates, etc.). I also send regular updates if needed, so you know your pet is happy and safe while you're away.

About: I have been sitting for years and currently have two dogs of my own. Our older dog had ear cancer so I am familiar with how to care for sick dogs and how to give medicine and the treatments of such nature. I currently work during the work week so I am free most nights during the week week do stop ins and then have much more open availability on the weekends! I am very attentive to the needs set out by the parents and make sure I am following instructions! I love taking the pets and walks as it’s good for both me and them! I would love to play and also can be down for a good cuddle as well.

“Kaylene was wonderful and would recommend her to care for anyone’s furkids. You can feel her genuine love for animals and the care she provides reflects it. Thank you so much for taking care of Simba and Nala!”
