Pet Sitting South Mills

About: No discrimination here! All dogs need love, the young, the mature, and the occasional window licker too. I have always had a dog in my life, from my Childhood pet to my very own prince Charming. Our house is extremely dog friendly, we sit on a little under an acre of fenced in land. The garage is set up with 2 dog doors for their convenience. Inside the house we have built in gates to separate guests if needed. Not all dogs get along... My services include overnight boarding, and walking for now. ​ We have 4 dogs of our own, which are well socialized and love meeting new friends! Onyx, is our lovable Lab middle child. Sassafras is a sweetheart, we were told she is a German Shepard mix. Onyx and Sassafras are the Pack Ambassadors, that Meet and Greet our house guests first. Charlie is an older Pitbull that keeps to herself, and Tucker doesn't know how big he is, and can be a little overwhelming. Additional Fees: Unavailable for a Meet & Greet - $25.00 Unaltered (not spayed or neutered) $45.00 Last Minute Booking (within 4 days of stay) - $75.00 I work for AMK9, a Police & Military Dog training facility in Moyock, NC. When I am away from the house my boyfriend is usually home, so your pups are always being looked after. Occasionally, we do need to run out, but my guests are never alone for very long. When we are gone, everyone is kept separate for safety. I take safety very seriously, for myself, my pups and most importantly your fur babies. I have a large fenced in yard, and the ability to keep pups separated in the event that personalities don't mesh well.

“I am so happy we found Taylor! She really made our Christmas. We got to go see our oldest kids for the holiday and she took GREAT care of our animals at home. She went above and beyond dealing with little things that popped up around the house and she gave our 2 dogs (and 2 kitties when they let her) so much love. We are beyond satisfied and would recommend her to anyone. We will definitely rebook her in the future if she is available. Thanks Taylor!!”

About: I have taken care of animals that I have owned and those of friends and family for most of my life! No cat or dog is too big or too small! I currently have 2 GSDs and 3 cats so high-energy animals are welcome! I have a full time job but I am available just about everyday during the week and all day on weekends most of the time! With the animals currently in my home, I am not offering boarding at this time but I am more than happy to do drop ins and walks as needed!

“Alexandra and her husband came over to meet my dachshund to make sure she is comfortable with them- they were very sweet and caring towards her I would definitely book them again:)”

SAMANTHA D.

“Reliable, friendly and even made a last minute visit when we were going to be really late getting home. Great pet sitter!”

Stephanie E.

“Stephen was quick to respond to my request for drop in visits and was great with my “babies”. I had gone on a cruise and left them for a whole week; the longest I have ever left them. Stephen gave me detailed reports of them along with pictures and looked out for their welfare such as wiping gunk out of Sam’s eye. I feel like they are in good hands with Stephen and I will use him again.”

Kristi D.

“Eric was incredibly communicative and professional! He was timely in his responses and super with our pups! I highly recommend Eric and would definitely request his services for my pups in the future!”

Karla L.

“Jessica was very good to our four boys! She made sure to keep us updated with all the pictures and messages! She was also very accommodating with schedule changes!”

About: == FULL TIME DOGGIE DAYCARE AND BOARDING! == Thank you for stopping by! Please read on to learn more about how we got started in the pet care business. == ABOUT US == We are a military family full of dog lovers (who isn't) and have been since we were children. This journey started after volunteering for a few months at a local humane society and wanting to spend more of our time with dogs. Since starting our Rover journey, we have been trusted with the privilege of caring for many of our friends' and family's dogs. With us, you can be sure that your dog will be in the hands of someone who enjoys dogs and their loving nature! == MEET AND GREETS == We personally do not require meet and greets but are more than willing to accommodate your request to have one, as we understand and value a mutually harmonious fit between all parties. Meet and greets will take place in the front yard and be limited to 10-15 minutes. Also, please know that we do not give tours due to liability reasons, however there are pictures on our profile to reference if needed. Our home is spacious, safe, secure and clean! PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: Daycare rates cover up to 12 hours ( pricing can be adjusted for half days etc) Boarding rates covers 24 hours *If a daycare stay exceeds 12 hours, additional rates will be automatically applied. **If a boarding stay exceeds 24 hours by more than 2 hours, additional rates will be automatically applied. ***A convenience fee of $10 will be applied to any drop off or pick up prior to 7am. Please note that any photos and updates will be sent between the hours of 9am -9pm. If you have any further questions that were not answered here, please feel free to reach out to us. Thanks for reading and we hope to meet you and your best friend! == SCHEDULE == Our family is are full time dog sitters (I am a stay at home Mom) and Eric (husband) still works his full time job in the military typically 8am-2pm. We are committed to have a dog loving and caring life while balancing our "weekends". We are typically able to accommodate changes in your schedule/needs to adjust pick up and drop off times. Please let us know as soon as possible about any adjustments needed. == DURING YOUR PUPS STAY == Upon a dog's first arrival, we strictly monitor their interactions with any other dog to be aware of any dynamics we need to be concerned about. We do not hesitate to separate dogs into different play areas if anything seems off. Our property is fully fenced on all sides, and we have gates to keep even the best escape artist pups safe. Dogs have full access to our entire downstairs which open up to a well-maintained fenced in yard. == FEEDING == During feeding time, your dog will fed in their crate or a play pen area to prevent food aggression and upset stomachs caused by consuming foreign dog food of other pups. == SLEEPING == Crate-trained dogs will sleep in crates (please specify if your dog is used to a certain size, as we have a wide variety of sizes available. Dogs who are not crate trained will sleep in a pen. Special accommodations can be made for dogs who are not able to do either of those. == WALKS == While it is our goal to make sure each dog get proper exercise and socialization, we do not provide walks during boarding due to liability and risk factors involved with walks (dogs escaping from harness, eating something off the side walk, coming into contact with an unfriendly dog, etc). We do, however give them plenty of outdoor time with the other dogs or solo to socialize and play, which we find is ample exercise for the pups that stay with us. REQUESTED INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR PET Prior to dropping off, please fill out your dog's bio as much as possible. == THINGS WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR DOG == -Is your pup sick and/or contagious? -Quirks or habits that would be helpful to know (humping, chewing on paws, separation anxiety, excessive barking, etc). -Current or past illnesses, injuries, or traumatic history/triggers. -If they are taking any medication or require any special care instructions. -Is your pup up to date on vaccinations and flea & tick medication. We understand vaccines are not bulletproof and that some illnesses may have an extended incubation period but we highly recommend the vaccines to create the safest experience. *Please know that we are unable to care for sick/contagious dogs. If your pup shows any signs of disease or illness, please let us know beforehand so we can make sure you receive a proper refund. If we discover that your pup is exhibiting obvious symptoms of disease with the first 12 hours with us, your dog will need to be picked up and no refund will be issued. I am a stay at home mama. I pick up and drop off my children at school and have the rest of the day free to help take care of your dogs. We live in a very clean two-story home, fenced in yard, and all the necessities required to properly care for your pets. You will not need to worry as they will be in safe and good care during their appointments. I love to be outside and can travel for drop-ins, walks, and even in home sitting!

About: I've been around and caring for dogs my entire life. I have 2 furry family members myself currently. I will care for yours just like they're my own and with your rules in place of course. I am available to do drop in visits and walks at this time. Scheduling is important to accomplish multiple tasks/jobs and allows for a smooth visit. I have a large fenced in yard and 2 dogs. At this time I am taking more pets into my home as I am working on sections of it. I am available for drop in visits it your home and can walk, play, and feed your dog/s.

About: I'm a high school math teacher and my wife works from home full time. Looking to watch after your little guys so we don’t have to get another one. Our dog Penny, has recently passed however we would like to keep her pictures and memory alive on this profile*. Most days I'm up early and dont mind being active and taking morning walks. Experience wise ive taken care of neighbors cats and dogs as a teen and have had 2 dogs myself over my adult years as well as turtles if you care about that. Dropping off your pet at my place seems like the best but I'm open to stopping by your place if need be. One of us is almost always at home full time to care for your pup. My wife loves snuggles and always looking for another blanket buddy We have a large yard and one friendly toddler looking for her next best friend. Overall it is a quiet home with lots of space.

“Jenna did an excellent job of taking care of Farrah. She was great about communicating and sent us pictures. She was also able to do a couple extra drop ins on very short notice when our flights were cancelled and we were stuck out of town. Would certainly recommend Jenna and would book again!”

About: I've cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life from my own animals to my friends and families. I always was the first of my siblings to volunteer to help feed, walk, watch over, bathe, and learn about animals and it's since been a passion of mine. I work part-time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets in my free time. I the sweetest cat,Olly, so I definitely get creative with indoor/outdoor activities. I have a variety of cat toys that your animal will have access to (depending on your preferences), puzzles and home made interactive games so your pup will constantly be entertained and hopefully tuckered out when returning home!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and animals my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From a young age, I helped watch and care for neighbors’ and friends’ pets, which taught me how meaningful—and rewarding—pet care truly is. Today, I’m a proud pet parent to three animals of my own, and I also have two young children, which has deepened my patience, attentiveness, and nurturing approach to caregiving. I believe in more than just meeting an animal’s basic needs—I strive to provide enrichment, comfort, and a happy, loving environment. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, general grooming, administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, and using positive reinforcement training. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m a stay at home mom so I’m very flexible with my schedule! My little man will be with me during any morning or day time visits so animals must be okay with children. I’m very attentive with my own animals. I make sure they don’t get into anything and pay close attention to their needs. In any circumstance I would provide the same level of care to someone else’s pet.

“Kelsi went above and beyond to give our cats some love and attention while we were out of town. We will definitely be booking her again!”

“Sabrina saved the day when my neighbor couldn't watch my dogs for a night. She followed directions to a T and the dogs seemed very happy when I got home later that night.”

About: I've taken care of animals wether they're mine or someone else's for as long as I can remember. I love spending time with animals and taking care of them. I communicate everything to make sure your pets are safe and happy! 🥰 My schedule is very flexible and I know our pets are happiest when their routine stays consistent, so I focus on creating a calm, safe, and low-stress experience in your home. I follow feeding instructions carefully, keep litter areas clean, clean up accidents in case your pets get anxious when your away, make sure doors and windows stay secure, and provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe and happy. I treat every pet and animal like my own and respect their individual personalities, space and routine. Whether your pets are playful, shy, or independent, I provide patient care, attention, fresh food and water, litter maintenance, and updates/photos while you’re away. Between dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals and even the little guys like hamsters and fish.

About: I have plenty of experience caring for pets of my own, as well as volunteering at the local SPCA. Feeding, bathing, grooming, walking, playing, etc. I have one dog of my own, and had one prior who was handicapped and paralyzed, so I have decent experience. I am good to work with any breed or size of dog. I am pretty decently flexible, as I work mornings from 5:30-10, and then anytime after I am 100% free 7 days a week! Feeding, bathing, grooming, walking, playing, simply spending time with, etc. in client’s home for in-home visits. Depending on the task, I can do almost anything needed.

“Melanie and Addison, thank you so much for watching my dogs over the weekend. Your communication and notes were nice to work with, and I really appreciate the care and attention you gave them.”
