Pet Sitting in Taylorsville

“Kassie did a great job with both of our dogs!! She made sure both of them got the individual attention they like and sent tons of pics. Hopefully she will become one of our regular sitters! :)”

About: I've had animals since I was a child and have taken care of them all of my adult life. I have personally fostered over 75 dogs through to their adoptions! I'm a trusted caregiver who can handle animals of all sizes, ages, abilities and temperaments! I love getting to know each animal's personality and how to best take care of them! With several dogs and a cat at home, I am always in pet care mode (and know how important it is to find a trusted sitter). Whether it is a drop-in or a boarding situation, I treat each pet like they are my own. (Also, our cat has his own "wing" of our home so he is not interacting with any visiting dogs.) We have two friendly, large dogs, Tennessee & Tucky who have been foster brothers to over 75 dogs of all sizes and ages. Having fostered so many dogs, I recognize that each animal is unique and I enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and how to best care for them. Whether the animals are in my house or their own, I will follow the owners' instructions and manage expectations so there are as few surprises as possible. I know how worrisome it can be to leave your pet(s) in the care of another, and I pride myself on making sure the animals are taken care of and enjoy themselves.

About: I stand out through my dedication to delivering unparalleled care tailored to the unique needs of every dog. With specialized expertise in training puppies and providing attentive senior care, I bring a deep understanding of canine behavior and health. I prioritize safety, comfort, and personalized attention, ensuring each furry client receives nurturing and enriching experiences. My commitment to fostering strong bonds and creating positive, memorable interactions sets me apart as a compassionate and trusted caregiver at Rover. I am retired and looking for walking activities to keep me busy with the things I enjoy the most, PETS!! I love being around them as much as possible. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their comfort, well-being, and adherence to any specific routines or instructions provided by the owner. Here’s how I approach different pet care services: Dog Sitting: Daily Routine: I maintain the dog's regular feeding schedule, ensuring they have access to fresh water at all times. Exercise and Play: I engage the dog in activities they enjoy, such as walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep them active and happy. Comfort: I provide cozy resting areas and ensure the environment is safe and secure. Medication: If required, I administer medications according to the owner's instructions. Dog Walking: Safety First: Before the walk, I check equipment like leashes and harnesses to ensure they are secure. Exploration: I take dogs on stimulating walks in safe areas, allowing them to explore and enjoy their surroundings. Hydration: I bring water for hydration, especially during warmer weather. Positive Reinforcement: I use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior during walks.

“Ava has always been so quick to respond and has been great with our pup Oakley. We will definitely continue to reach out to her when we need someone to let Oakie out!”

About: I have taken care of my friends and neighbors pets (cats and dogs) over the past few years when they have went on vacation and not only did I enjoy the company, but the pets also enjoyed having me there to give them attention while their owner was away, especially when it came to getting pets and food. Over the summer, I can pretty much work every day of the week except most Sundays unless special arrangements are made. I can work early mornings like 5 AM to 10 PM on weekdays and most Saturdays unless stated otherwise. when I am at a client’s home, I will make sure that the pet is comfortable with me and does not feel nervous or scared, as well as making sure they have a safe environment to play in whether that be inside or outside, making sure that no dangerous obstacles are in their way, and I will also make sure that their food and water is safe to consume.

“Amazing Dog Sitter! Absolutely wonderful experience! Great communication, lots of photos, and my dog was so happy and well-cared for. I felt completely at ease the whole time. Highly recommend and will definitely book again! 🐾❤️”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and cats for about 4 years. My grandma has always had a dog who I loved to take on walks, feed and give lots of cuddles. I own a cat who I love to play with, cuddle and lay around the house with. I only work 4 days of the week 9-5, so I have ample time to pet sit, drop in for care or go for walks! I treat every pet with love as if they are my own and make sure to give them everything they need. Their happiness is very important to me

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for all sizes and breeds, including walking, bathing, feeding, and spending quality time with them. From a young age, I developed a strong love and respect for animals and really value the bond between pets and their people. In college and through work, friends and coworkers often trusted me to watch their dogs because I’m dependable and genuinely enjoy being around them. I live an active lifestyle, especially on weekends, and my apartment is right by the 4-mile Lyle Creek Trail, which is great for walks and exercise. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I truly enjoy being around them and love that pet sitting lets me experience all the best parts of having a dog—without them ever missing out on care, attention, or exercise. I work Monday–Friday with a very flexible schedule and live just 5 minutes from work, so I’m able to step away when needed for pet care. I’m available for boarding after 3 PM on Fridays, all day Saturday, and during the day on Sundays, with pickup by 7 PM Sunday evening. I’m also happy to help with dog pickup and drop-off when needed. On weekdays, I’m available before 8 AM and after 4:30 PM, and I can also accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the day to ensure pets receive reliable, consistent care. In my home or a client’s home, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while sticking closely to their normal routines. If a dog is crate-trained or needs a crate for safety or comfort, I’m able to crate them as needed. I provide regular walks, feeding on schedule, and plenty of attention based on each pet’s energy level and needs. I’m also available for overnight stays, making sure pets are cared for throughout the night and maintain a consistent routine. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard since I live in an apartment, I make up for that with access to plenty of open space and nearby trails, which are great for exercise and walks. Safety is always my priority, and I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and well taken care of whether we’re inside or out.

“Faith followed all instructions which is so important for a neurotic kitty like mine! She communicated important updates and asked questions to get more information. She even added an extra visit when she felt like my cat needed it. I am booking her again!”

“Ashley is amazing. Reliable, responsive, flexible, trustworthy and incredibly kind. She did drop in visits for us for a week while we were away and sent us updates, pictures and videos and made us feel so comfortable knowing our girls were being cared for. Will definitely book with her again!”

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and fish during middle school and high school as well as during breaks during college. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their animals from as little as a weekend to as much as 2 weeks at a time. I am currently a student at Appalachian State University and have plenty of time in the morning, afternoon, and evening time frames to take care of animals. I do not currently have a pet-friendly residence, but I am capable of walking, feeding, and playing with animals at their homes and within their neighborhoods.

About: I’ve grown up fostering and owning all sort of animals! From bottle feeding puppies to raising abandoned birds, I’ve done it. I’ve been known to bond with animals who have been considered “grumpy” or “solitary”, too. I have experience taking care of a wide range of animals as well and look forward to taking care of yours! My schedule is wide open so fitting pet care in will be my top priority whether you want me to come to you or if you want to leave your pet in my care. I do daily walks and dog park runs with my pup and would be happy to do the same with yours! My home is open concept with plenty of room to play and I have a large couch if that’s more your pets speed. I am highly detail oriented so if I’m visiting your pet at home, I’ll make sure they get exactly the care you’re looking for. You’ll also receive lots of pictures when your pet is in my care!

About: I have several pets of my own, including a large dog, 4 cats, and a tarantula. My background includes experience with exotic animal care, nervous dogs/cats, big and small animals. Based off my experience with my own pets and the animals I work with, I have no doubt I can keep your pets happy and healthy. I have a part-time job working with exotic animals of every kind. I have a set schedule and would be available at the same times each week. Virtually every afternoon after 4:30pm is available walks and drop in visits. My Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays are free. I believe that each animal has its own personality and comfort zone. My goal is to make any animal I interact with entirely comfortable, and so I have learned to read their body language quickly.

About: Have ran a small farm before. Many dogs and cats and goats chickens. Enjoy and find it peaceful to be around animals of all types I currently have Tuesday through Friday off and would like to make some extra money on my own schedule time Unavailable Saturday through Monday. As I work my full time job I can easily crate and walk your pet when needed and watch over it. When outside they will be on a lease and with me at all times

“Mara was great with our two cats! I greatly appreciated her dropping in and spending time with them while I was out of town. I felt much more reassured that my cats were okay with Mara's great communication, awesome attitude, and adorable pictures.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life and have always been picky with who takes care of mine! So I know the ins and outs with walking, feed schedules and potty time! I have dog walked, and I house/pet sit as well! It’s important to have trust worthy people with your babies!!! Every animal should be treated as such 💗 I work part time and in school so it works out perfectly for my schedule and gets my steps in as well and being able to be around more animals is always a plus!!! I make sure the owners write down what they need from me so I have a guide line for each pet! I then offer them if they need to be crated or walked more frequently or are they allowed to have treats and so on! I also give them my number incase they want to call and check on them!

About: What sets me apart is my genuine care and patience with every pet. I have experience with puppies, including basic training and routines, as well as providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel comfortable, understood, and happy. Pet care fits smoothly into my routine because I stay organized and flexible. I plan my schedule around visits, feeding times, walks, and giving pets consistent attention and care. I care for pets by following owner instructions, and keeping routines, feeding on time, giving walks, play, affection, and ensuring a clean, safe, comfortable environment.

“Highly recommended! Could not have asked for better sitter. Justin took excellent care of both our dogs. Our dog Cas has special needs and can be a real handful for most people but not for Justin. Will definitely use him again!”
