Pet Sitting in Surry

“Nikki is so good with Baxter, and accommodates late planning by Baxter's Dad. Thanks again for your responsiveness and kind attention to Mr. B.”

“Amber was quick to respond to initial request, scheduled a meet and greet and took care of our dog all within a week’s notice. As first time Rover customers, Amber exceeded all of our wishes for our dog’s care.”

“Wonderful, kind and reliable.”

“Our family was very fortunate to have someone take such great care of our boy. Tammy sent us photos and texts with updates of Mr. Porters shenanigans each day as she knew we were nervous about leaving our boy behind. She took him on several walks each day and gave him all the love and snuggles he wanted. We were truly lucky to have Tammy!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my family my whole life, as well as horses , donkeys and pigs growing up. Worked with animals in my early teens and twenties for many years. My best employment that I have had is with animals. I’m currently working freelance from my home with my own set hours so I will have plenty of time to schedule walks and drop ins I will walk your dogs in an environment suitable to you, maybe a park? Hiking trail? I will also visit your pets in your own safe environment.

About: I’m now a full time SAHM to a 7.5 month old (as of January), and I want to help care for your pet! I grew up riding and caring for horses, and have always had cats and dogs. I love animals and treat them like family. We have a German Shepherd named Ruck, and I take him for a 3 mile walk daily so he can run, sniff, and explore! Let me help you with the time and attention your beloved pet needs. I can help with feeding, walks, or just a simple visit for some pets and play. I’m a full time stay-at-home-mom, so my schedule is very flexible! M-F I can be available 11am-evening, and most Saturdays and Sundays early morning as well. I am an extension of you, so I will care for your pet as you do and treat them with respect and love, keeping them safe and happy.

“It is my pleasure to let you know about Margaret's love for animals. She has cared for and nutured my pets over the years. Minnie , my current dog is sweet and also very active. It is assuring to know that my pet caregiver has the energy to keep up with her. Margaret is also very intuitive. My pup is not very verbal when it comes to her needs. Minnie speaks with her eyes. Margaret has learned what each expression means. I have watched her with her pets and other along the way. I can say she is a kindred spirit.”

“Julia did a great job taking care of my cat while I was gone. Everything was clean and Misty was alive and well. Thanks Julia!”

About: i currently work at a doggy daycare and have experience with many breeds of dogs and i’ve been an owner of multiple cats over the years. Friends and family have trusted me to watch their pets while they’ve been away as well. I’m currently working full time but i get out earlier some days and have others off. When i’m not at work my schedule is very flexible. I can understand how to take care of your fur babies every need and make sure they’re comfortable and happy until you come back! I can take them for walks, follow eating schedules, and make sure their routine stays as normal as possible.

“Brandy has stayed at our home with our precious dog and cat for over two years and she is an incredible person and caretaker. We always feel fully confident in her presence while we are away and know that she understands our furry babies, our own dynamics in how we like them and our home taken care of, and always feel secure in that everything is being handled with care and attention to detail when she is here. Brandy has an incredible aura and is a delight to be around. Our pets absolutely adore her, as do we. She is a dependable, trustworthy, kind, and generous person who will do anything she can for the ones she is taking care of. We put our full trust in her.”

“Chris is great. Very playful and attentive. My dog loves him!”

About: I have several years of experience dog/pet sitting including overnight stays. I enjoy taking dogs on daily walks, and playing catch or tug of war to help them get in their daily exercise. Some dog breeds I have long-term care experience with (one-week to month-long pet sitting) include labs, golden retrievers, formosan mountain dogs, and bullmastiff. Although I love all the furry friends! I am also experienced in caring for multiple pets—the most being two dogs, two cats, and one stray, for two separate month-long sits. I am comfortable walking multiple dogs at a time. I also have experience feeding dogs and cats oral medications. I am happy to do house calls for walks and feeding, as well as overnight stays. During overnight stays I make sure the house stays clean and tidy, and that the pets follow their house rules! My schedule is very flexible, and I have a lot of daytime availability for walks and potty breaks. I work as a server/bartender, so am generally scheduled weekend evenings. My shifts last about 6 hours, so for house sitting/overnights, 6-7 hours would be the maximum amount of time the pups would be on their own. If sitting is scheduled with enough advance I can also get this down to only 5-6 hours. I currently cannot offer pet service in my own house. In a client’s home I always make sure I understand what the house rules are for the pets, as well as for guests! I am happy to meet clients in a public setting first if they feel more comfortable with that before inviting me to their home. I understand how important people’s homes and pets are to them, and do everything I can to communicate with reliability and respect. I love taking care of animals, and want both you and your pets to have a great experience with me.

About: I’ve always had well behaved dogs and cats. Currently we have two dogs, a 2 1/2 year old rescued lab mix and a senior pug mix. We also have some other animals, 4 indoor cats, 6 outdoor cats, chickens that free range, ducks and rabbits. When I was in high school and junior high I walked dogs after school and in the summers I house and dog sat this included dogs with strict diets, training routines and all activity levels. I make my own work schedule so I can work around you! I currently spend most of my time working on or from my property. We have a large yard for long leashed fetch with local hiking trails connected to the property for daily walks. The house has a large gated porch with a pond view that our pups can spend the whole day looking at but it also connects to small fenced yard area. For indoor space we have a spare bedroom and all different size crates. Well behaved pups will also be aloud in the main living area. All animals are different I want to be respectful of your pets needs and provide them comfort and fun distractions while they eagerly await your return.

“Nicole is wonderful. She is great at communicating any questions that she might have. She treats my cats and dogs as if they were her own. Thanks for the great care!”

“We are so thankful we found Julia to do drop in visits with Maggie! She is so sweet and reliable. I would recommend her to anyone that needs someone to look after their animals!”

“Deb stepped in when we were out of town and our dog sitter got sick and couldn't care for our dogs. She left us wonderful updates after each visit filled with information and photos. I felt our dogs were well taken care of the whole time. We arrived home to a wonderful note and dog treats for our pups.”

“I wouldn't trust anyone else with my dog. Jamie-Lynn is highly knowledgeable in regard to dogs and many other animals. Have you ever met one of those people who animals are just drawn to? She is one of them.”

“Joseph has cared for my 2 dogs and 2 cats for a week at a time in my home over the last couple years. He is always dependable and does every detailed thing I ask of him. It is nice to go away and know my pets are in good hands. He communicates well when things come up that need attention. He is a great guy who I was lucky to meet through his work in my children's school.”

“Logan is GREAT with dogs. My dog that is usually very anxious with new people went right up to him, and was totally warmed up with him within a few minutes.”
