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.

7. Nadia S.
“Nadia has been walking our 3 year old weimaraner for awhile now, which if you don’t know is an extremely energetic dog breed. Nadia came in confident and excited and it was evident that she had a lot of dog experience. Otto warmed up to her so quickly and she had no trouble with him. Nadia has always been amazing about communication and flexible with last minute changes if needed. She always goes the extra mile and is loved by our whole family, especially our four legged member! We couldn’t recommended Nadia more if you are looking for a kind, responsible and reliable walker!!”

Being able to take care of someone else’s animal while there away is a really fun past time and I love knowing there not home by themselves! I am free all they time which make my schedule really flexible and open. I am going back to school in August but Besides school I’m always open! I have a fenced in yard that my dog stays in. I take my dog Anakin for a walk once occasionally twice a day, and feed him three times a day and always have fresh water. He lets me know when he needs to go outside or when he is hungry.

13. Kassidy D.
About: I’ve always had various kinds of pets growing up. I currently have two dogs, three horses, and a bunny. I can’t remember a time that I didn’t have an animal companion. I love animals and will take care of your pet just like it is my own! I’m currently in school at UNCG and have class on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I am free on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as the weekend. I have a chihuahua that stays indoors and likes to make new friends. I have a large yard. The yard is not fenced in though so I would have to take your dog out on a leash.
14. Brittany H.
“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.”

17. Mary W.
“When first meeting Mary, we talked forever about all the animals she has taken care of. I do have a very high energetic dog, and sometimes aggressive towards strangers. When first meeting my dog, she knew all the steps in letting the dog get comfortable with her first before going in for some pets. My dog now absolutely loves her, and if i say "Mary" she knows she going to get spoiled! I wouldnt want anyone else taking care of my dog while im away.”
18. Ashley K.
“When asked to describe a dog in three words I think of loyal, loving, and playful. Funny enough, but this is exactly how I would describe Ashley. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Ashley for almost a decade now and not only is she loyal to her friends and family, but also to animals. She is always looking for ways to help animals in need; whether it’s attending local fundraisers for animal shelters or fostering dogs to help them find a forever home, Ashley is there to help. Just recently, Ashley answered to a Facebook post of a couple looking for someone to foster their dog. While fostering this dog, Ashley came home to find that it ate a hole in her wall. What did she do? She patched the hole with a smile on her face and continued to care for the dog until she found a proper home. Ashley has a down-right passion for dogs. Ashley has rescued three dogs and continues to work hard to provide for them; she even bought her first home so they had a proper yard to play in! Of course, Ashley loves her OWN dogs, but this love extends to all dogs (and animals for that matter). It’s hard to take Ashley out in public—when she sees a dog, she can’t resist talking in a baby voice and running over to pet it. She can spend hours talking to strangers about their dogs and the funny things they do. She is literally the heart-eye emoji when she sees a dog. Ashley is full of energy. This girl works numerous of jobs but comes home exuberant and ready to play with her pets. From long walks, trips to dog parks, and filling up a kiddy pool in her back yard she’s always being active with her dogs. Playing with dogs gives her the greatest joy—the smile on her face says it all! My dog always greets Ashley at the door with a toy in her mouth because she knows Ashley will get down on her hands and knees to play tug-o-war. Loyal. Loving. Playful. These are the best qualities of Ashley that will make her the best dog sitter anyone could ask for. Every customer will have confidence that their fur-baby is being tended to with proper love and attention and leave their dogs’ tail wagging.”
19. Ireland B.
“Ireland is wonderful with all animals, she has watched our dogs several times and always loves them as her own! She is gentle with them, loving, plays with them, walks them and makes sure they are treated the very best when she is watching them. She does everything we ask when it comes to the dogs and makes sure to always send us pictures while we are away. She is the only person we trust to watch our babies and it always gives us peace of mind when she is with them!”
