Joan did a great job taking care of our two dogs and cat!!!! She sent us updates every day. It was nice to wake up to see how our babies were doing for the day! I will definitely use her in the future! Pets were well taken care of and our home as well.

Maranda house sat for me, caring for my two cats, while I was out of town for a few days. My girls warmed right up to Maranda, even my young cat who has been known to hide from sitters for a long time. Maranda even sent me videos of my young cat being silly and demanding pets. My home appears well cared for and I returned to happy, healthy cats!

Kate did great! She took care of our two 90lb dogs who have food allergies and some resource guarding and she handled it well! Would definitely hire her again :)

Nora was great! She is super friendly, respected all of my concerns and happily sent me frequent updates and pictures of my pup. Benji warmed up quickly to her and he is a timid pup so I feel like that said a lot!

About: Hello! I'm currently a nursing student that has a love for all animals and if I wasn’t going to be a nurse I’d definitely be a Vet! I have 14 years of experience with caring for all sorts of dogs. I can do senior care and puppy care whatever you may need! I have flexible availability if I’m ever not available I prioritize clear communication over anything else. Just let me know what you need and I got you and your precious pet! I hope that your best friend can become mine as well! Currently I’m a full time nursing student, which makes working a regular 9-5 or hospital 12hr shifts quite difficult. I’m big on communication, I will always lay out my current hours as I’m in an accelerated course. I have a fenced in yard, and I live in a neighborhood that is super pet friendly where I can safely take your dog on walks.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, from growing up with multiple large farm dogs to now taking care of my small dachshund–chihuahua mix. Being around such a wide range of sizes and personalities has made me really adaptable and confident with different types of dogs. What sets me apart is my patience and attention to each pet’s individual needs. I have experience caring for senior dogs and pets that need extra support, including giving medications like pills, eye drops, and ear drops. I’m also very mindful of routines, knowing how important consistency is for keeping pets comfortable and stress-free. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building trust with them- It’s not just something I do, it’s something I look forward to. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and at home, while giving owners peace of mind that their pet is in good hands. I am currently on summer break and I’m looking forward to committing my time to pet sitting! I have a completely open schedule for the next few months. At home, it’s me, my grandma, and our small chihuahua mix, Romeo. We spend a lot of time outdoors in our yard gardening, relaxing, and enjoying the summer, and Romeo loves being outside with us. We also take short car rides to a nearby park for walks and a change of scenery. Inside, pets have plenty of cozy spots to relax, including crates (if they’re used to one), quiet corners, and my room for extra comfort. I always make sure pets are supervised, safe, and sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. I’m mindful when introducing pets to Romeo and will always prioritize a calm, safe environment. If your pet prefers their own space or a more relaxed pace, I’m happy to accommodate that too. For care in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and will follow all instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. If your pet enjoys a calm, loving environment with light activity and lots of attention, they’ll fit right in here 😊

About: I've been surrounded by dogs of every kind my entire life, I have had 2 dogs and 3 cats. I enjoy working with dogs because I am an outdoor person who likes to go for runs and walks. I have been relied on by my friends and neighbors to come and spend time, feed, and walk their pets. I am currently enrolled at Catawba College, getting my masters degree, while competing on the beach volleyball team. All my classes are online and practice ranges from 7-8am, 11am- 1pm, and 5-6pm, but vary through the week. I have a fenced-in backyard for my 2-year-old Lab and I make sure that we keep the bedroom doors closed so I can always keep my eye on them.

About: I worked as a kennel technician at a boarding/daycare facility for over a year so I have seen firsthand how stressful those environments can be despite how social you think your dog might be with others. Dogs have always been one of my special interests since I was very little, I have plenty of experience taking care of senior dogs and puppies, and I am comfortable taking care of any breed/temperament. I have no problem if you spam me for pictures of your pup and I love sending constant updates and pics! I know how stressful it can be not to have your dog in your own care so no request is too small. I am a full-time college student studying environment and zoology, please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! I have full class schedule throughout the week and it changes per semester, don’t let that stop you from reaching out! I will take a look at any request and see if I can make them work. The more specific you are the better. If I have even the tiniest question I will not hesitate to reach out, I want your dog to be as close to there typical environment/schedule as possible so they are comfortable. Saftey is the big priority for me when caring for your pup, your dog will never be put in an unsafe situation by me. I am comfortable with emergency aid if necessary and I have transportation if your dog needs to be taken to a veterinarian.

We’re big fans of Lori and her pup Teddy! We like to keep our pups home in their comfort zone when we’re not able to travel with them and they did great with her overnight. We will be using Lori again in the future and would recommend her in a heartbeat to folks in the area who need their animals well cared for while they’re away.

About: I’ve cared for animals most of my life and have years of experience pet sitting for friends and family. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and helping with daily pet care like feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I focus on providing reliable, attentive care and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work part-time! I’m available Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday from 11AM - 8PM. I’m not available on Wednesday or Thursday. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), and daily care so pets feel safe and secure in their familiar environment. I always treat both your pet and your home with respect. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while you’re away, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know how they’re doing. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and well cared for until you return.

About: I am a mother and it is obvious in the way I care for dogs it comes naturally and doesn't feel like work. Also, I am friendly, upbeat, and enjoy spending time with dogs. Currently, I am a bar captain for a Broadway theater. So my availability is mostly in the afternoons, and late nights. Over my lifetime, I have had many dogs. All were rescued dogs who suffered from tremendous abuse. With that lasting trauma, trust and behavioral issues are common and for which I have the patience for. In addition to my personal experiences with dogs coming from special circumstances, most of my dogs have been medium to large breeds, and many of those were scent hounds. Which means you have to indulge some curiosities, all while staying mindful of safety. Therefore I would be happy taking your dogs on indulgent walks led by their noses and helping you take great care of your dogs would be my pleasure.

Natalie was wonderful and took great care of our precious boys. They aren’t easy to trust but they took to her quickly and even slept with her. It didn’t hurt that she hung out with them by the pool which is their favorite. Very grateful for Natalie - it is hard for my husband and I to leave but she put us at ease.

About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, which taught me responsibility and a deep love for pets from an early age. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and other animals for years and have had my own dog for the past five. Friends and family often count on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets, and I always treat them as if they were my own. I’m a student at Pfeiffer with free mornings on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as Fridays. Most evenings and weekends are open, giving me plenty of time for pet care and walks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space and animals with the utmost respect. I follow all routines and instructions closely to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, walks, and care just as you would give them.

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, and with seven years of experience, I understand the importance of providing loving, reliable care. As a graduate with a degree in veterinary health science (pre-vet), I bring both experience and knowledge to pet sitting. My background in veterinary health science means I can provide attentive care for pets of all ages, including puppies and seniors. I have experience administering medications, monitoring for health concerns, and ensuring pets stay happy and comfortable. Whether it’s a playful pup or a senior pet needing extra attention, I provide compassionate and knowledgeable care. I will be starting Veterinary school in August, so will not be able to provide continued coverage however, I am not currently in school or working. So my times are pretty open. In my client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their usual routine. I ensure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise, and enrichment through playtime and companionship. If needed, I can administer medications and monitor for any health concerns. I also keep the home clean and secure while caring for the pet, creating a stress-free experience for both the pet and their owner. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care so pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away.

Lydia took wonderful care of my two dogs while staying with them over the weekend. From the moment we met her, it was clear that she genuinely loves animals. She followed their schedules and routines perfectly, spent plenty of time playing with them, and made sure they felt comfortable, happy, and loved while I was away. Knowing my dogs were in such caring and capable hands gave me complete peace of mind. When I returned home, they were relaxed, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed their time with her. I am so grateful for the pictures and videos she sent and the attention and affection she gave them. I would wholeheartedly recommend Lydia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate dog sitter.

Megan was a fantastic house and dog sitter. Our pitbull can act tough sometimes and Megan was able to put her at ease and really got her comfortable! She sent us pictures of both pups daily! We already have her booked for our next vacation!
