About: I’ve taken care and had pets since I was very little. We currently have two mini Aussies and a mini golden doodle inside. Expect lots of exercise for those active ones as my children also love animals and spend a lot of their time with our pets. Very flexible schedule as I’m self employed!! Will have certain hours each day I will have to leave for 2 hours. Other then that I’m free!! I offer open exploring of my home as long as their are no destructive behaviors. I also have an xl fenced yard I can also use for additional play time! Keep water available at all times. Food on your current schedule as provided.

“Brittany was so helpful! She was very prompt in responding to our request and messages. She was also flexible and accommodating in scheduling. I was pleased that she let us know when she arrived and left as well as wrote a note about how the visit went. Overall, a great experience.”
“Danielle was awesome! She arrived on time and was professional. She handled Rockie with care and I felt like he was in good hands. I’ll definitely book her again and she took cute photos of Rockie during his walk.”

About: I have been around animals since I was young. I have been a pet sitter for friends, family and neighbors. I can give your pet baths, walks and feed them. I am very compassionate and patient towards pets. I like going for walks and being outside. I am also very organized and i can follow specific instructions on how to care for your pet. I have a fenced in back yard for my 3 furbabies to play in. I also have 3 indoor/outdoor cats. I have a senior and 2 young pups. I give my senior medicine daily. We go on walks and learn tricks for treats.
About: Ive had dogs my entire life and learned how to care for all different types and personalities. I love animals and will treat your pup like my own. I can walk or do drop ins for any dog. I can only house sit with dog friendly animals as i have a small dog who will need to stay with me for any over night needs. I currently work from home doing freelance work, so my schedule is completely open! I am available any time of the day Monday through Sunday. I can offer your pet plenty of love and attention in your home. While making sure they have plenty of water and are well fed.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life since the day I was born. I’ve walked, bathed, and fed them without any trouble; though my dog does not like bathes, I still get them done and he does not hate me that much afterwards if I give him a cookie for being a good boy. I am available for anytime; currently job hunting. I will be changing my times accordingly. Evening visits will be more likely in the future, and I do not cover holidays. At my house I feed, bathe, and brush my dog. He is not that good on a leash so we don’t take him out for walks but he does run around our property a lot. For my cat, his bowl is always filled, so he eats when he wants. They are both allowed to come in and out of the house as they please. I can do the same for your pets as well or based on whatever needs they require.
“Valerie was extremely professional and kind. My pup has been cooped up in the house and needing some out time. She came in and allowed my dog to get familiar with her before letting her out. She was quick to respond and informative as well. I will definitely be booking again!”

About: I own dogs and cats of my own. They are truly my family and I love them to pieces. I promise to care for your pet and love them as if they are my own! I have dealt with different breeds, sizes, and tempers of dogs. Caring for animals is one of my biggest passions. I have owned dogs and cats for over 10 years. I grew up always having a pet in my home. I would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby and love them and treat them like the family that they are! Whether its play time, walk time, or an overnight stay you can be reassured that your pet will be in the best hands and very well taken care of!
About: I have over 8 years of personal experience providing pet and house sitting for multiple clients, caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I also grew up around animals, thanks to my mom working at a pet store, giving me hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals beyond just cats and dogs. I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their routines while giving you peace of mind with attentive, loving care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. While I do work full time, caring for animals is a top priority for me. Days typically start and end with two daily walks, plenty of playtime, and enrichment. I have a dog of my own, so my schedule already revolves around making sure pets get exercise, attention, and stimulation through toys, enrichment activities, and downtime for cuddles. I plan my days to ensure every pet in my care receives consistent attention, routine, and love. I provide a safe, animal-friendly environment in my home and always tailor care to each pet’s individual needs. My entire home is animal-friendly, with dog gates and crates available if needed to ensure the comfort and safety of any pets. While my yard is not fenced, we have plenty of space for supervised play and exercise, and all outdoor time is closely monitored. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible and let each pet set the pace. This could mean active play, enrichment time, walks, or quiet cuddles. Every pet is different, and my goal is to make them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for wherever they are.
About: I grew up taking care of pet dogs and cats -- often at the same time! From raising tabbies to keeping up with an active husky, I've gained diverse experience in caring for furry personalities. I typically work full-time during the school year, keeping a more flexible schedule during breaks. I'm available for boarding weekdays starting at 11am (after 6pm during school months), weekends starting 12pm. While I'm home, your pet is welcome to roam around or hunker down where they feel most comfortable. They can sleep/rest safely in my room as well. I will work to accommodate any specific care.

About: I have had pets my entire life and love spending time with animals. Pet owners will have the peace of mind knowing their pet is being cared for in their own space, where they are comfortable. I will provide daily pictures of the pets as well so you will be assured your pet is being well cared for and is happy as can be in its best friend’s absence. You will not be disappointed in the amount of love your pets will get under my care. My current schedule allows a lot of flexibility to cater to you and your pets needs. This includes being available frequently day and night for your pet. I will care for your pet in your home and follow all of your specific instructions. My goal is to care for your pet the way you would do so if you were home.
About: I have had pets ever since I was born. This includes 4 dogs, 15+ cats, 3 rabbits, and 2 turtles. I am always looking to spend time with any and all animals. I am studying ecology at Appalachian State University, and volunteer part-time at the NC Zoo. I am available in Boone, NC, during the school year and High Point, NC, during summer and winter breaks, and select weekends. I can care for your pet however you see fit. Just give me whatever instructions you would like and I will see to that list while caring for your pet.

If I had the option to take on 1000 animals at once because they needed a caring home I would( if my husband would let me) I am a stay at home mother to my daughter who is 6 and do dog boarding and art as my business. You won't have to worry about your animals being left alone because I am here 24/7. I live on 2 acres of land on a business road with no neighbors. Me and my daughter are mainly outside most of the time. We are a loving family of 6 who are caring, compassionate, trust worthy and genuine. We would love to be your animals caretaker!
