“Caitlin & Adrik took such great care of my girl! She is very high maintenance and has a special diet, but Caitlin & Adrik were able to accommodate her needs each and every day. They kept me informed of her day-to-day. They sent pictures and videos, and we’re very flexible at the last minute when my travel plans changed suddenly. I highly recommend them to care for your fur babies.”

“The love and comfort from Kinely’s home and everyone in it goes SO far with my dogs. They absolutely adore her and her husband and I trust them like family!! They treat them as their own and that’s all anyone could ever ask for ❤️”

About: Ive been taking care of pets since 2017. I was rated best pet sitter in Gastonia, NC 2026. Please check out pictures of my home at Andrea's Fuzz Therapy on Facebook. I have vet office experience. I live on lots of fenced in land for your fur baby to run and play. They have many pools to stay cooled off and tones of toy baskets!

I will always supervise your pets when in the yard or for a walk on the leash. Rest assured your loved ones will be in great hands.
“Heather took great care of Charley and communicated with us everyday. Our dog is anxious but Heather was sweet and patient with her and won her over within 24 hours. Charley is a little older and her home was a great environment for her. We will definitely use her again.”

“Lan did an amazing job with Zola, I felt bad taking Zola home as she was having such a great time, I will 100% be going back whenever I can in the future.”


“Katelyn was incredible! It was a last minute decision for us to find a pet sitter for the weekend and she welcomed them with open arms! We loved the daily photos and videos, and our pups loved her family 🖤 Thank youuuu!!”
“Paola is great dog sitter took my dogs for walks and showed her a lot of attention which I appreciated because she’s never stayed away from me! A great experience she’s knows a lot about dogs and is beyond qualified! Definitely would use her again!”

“Barb was absolutely a wonderful dog sitter! Our Labradoodle Ziggi was well taken care of and had a great time with her. Barb was very friendly and easy to communicate with. She kept us informed daily with pictures about how Ziggi was doing. We had an unexpected family emergency and had to fly out on Thanksgiving day which was already stressful and Barb made it so much easier and was very accommodating. Knowing that Ziggi would be taken care of took a lot of stress away from our trip. We would definitely use Barb again to dog sit Ziggi.”

About: I have had pets in my life ever since I was little. So I love helping take care of them. I also am very good with puppies and teaching them new tricks, and helping with potty train. I also love helping keep dogs very active, or just chill with them and cuddle! I am a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of free time. All days of the week are good for me. I’m even available on weekends if needed. I have a fenced in backyard. I also have a dog of my own, who loves to play with others and gets along with all sizes. He loves to share his toys or just play together. Or if it’s in your own home, anywhere your fur baby loves to play! I also have dog parks around for your baby to play with or without others, and a nice neighborhood to walk around. Or we can walk around your neighborhood as well!
“Perfect!!! Is beyond the word I could use. Abbey made us feel so comfortable with leaving our baby with her. She gave her her meds like she was supposed to. Absolutely wonderful experience!”

“Pippa loves her time with Brittney, and our family loves knowing she is safe, happy, and loved when we're away! Brittney is a great and speedy communicator and kept Pippa on her schedule while we were on vacation. Super friendly, professional, and trustworthy!”

“Ashley was great with our dog Marley. This is the first time we had ever left her for longer than two days or left her with anyone other than family. Ashley sent us lots of pictures and let us know how Marley was doing the whole nine days we were gone. Next trip if we don’t take Marley with us, we will definitely be in contact with Ashley again highly recommend”

“Destiny was absolutely wonderful with Athena! She sent me pics and updates the whole time she stayed there. I will definitely be using Destiny from now on, and now I feel comfortable being able to go out of town knowing Athena is in great hands with Destiny!”

“Jenna was wonderful! I knew from the moment we started talking that she would take care of my Addy. She exceeded my expectations and sent me lots of updates and pictures. She is a caring person and I will definitely book her again when we’re in that area. Highly recommend. 10/10.”

“Ms Ruby had a fantastic weekend getaway! I received plenty of updates of how she was doing and pictures of how much fun she was having. Finished it off with a spa day! Will definitely have Tami watch her again when I travel!”
