House Sitting Thicketty

“Alex is amazing with animals and was great with my dog daisy. I have a 2-year old mountain feist that still has a lot of energy and Alex was able to give her the exercise and attention that she needed while I was away.”

“Jonathan is an awesome dog sitter! I will definitely hire him again in the future. He kept me informed about how Bear was doing during the entire stay. I came home to my home being in great shape too. Bear was happy to see me, but I think.he misses Jonathan.”

About: My résumé includes dogs, cats, muddy boots, mystery noises in barns, and convincing animals that the thing they absolutely do not want to do is actually a great idea. I've learned that patience, consistency, and a pocket full of treats or a favorite toy solve most problems. Animals have always been a huge part of my world. On any given day, I might be caring for horses, spending time with my dogs and cats, or helping a nervous animal feel comfortable in a new situation. I understand that every pet is different. Some want a long walk and a game of fetch. Some want a quiet companion who respects their space. Some have very strong opinions about breakfast arriving precisely on time. I have experience caring for animals of all ages, from energetic youngsters to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with large dogs, multi-pet households, and pets with established routines that need to be followed carefully. Friends often describe me as observant and dependable. I pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's personality. Whether your pet is an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a lovable troublemaker, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. As a lifelong animal owner, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own. I currently have flexible availability most days of the week and can often accommodate pet care requests around my existing animal care responsibilities. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and showing up when expected. Beginning in August, my availability will shift as I start graduate school, and I will primarily be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I believe in being upfront about scheduling and only accepting bookings that I can fully commit to, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow it as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and attention tailored to their personality. Some pets want to play, some want belly rubs, and some prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. For walks, I focus on safety, consistency, and making sure your dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I pay attention to weather conditions, energy levels, and each dog's comfort and confidence. I also keep an eye on the little things. As someone who has cared for animals for many years, I know that changes in appetite, energy, mobility, or behavior can be important. If I notice something unusual, I will communicate it promptly. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the household itself. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, and for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just as you left it.

“Diego gave me peace of mind tending to my dog while I was away! He’s really great and send some pictures to let me know everything was going great! He always checked in with me to let me know when he arrived and when he was taking the dog out for a walk. Will deff use him again! He’s a great guy and also was available to do a meet and great before hand 💜”

“This is the 2nd time Mya has house/pet sat for us and I feel very comfortable with her in my home! And our skittish dog seems to be warming up to her, which is always a good sign!”

“Everything seemed to go great. Very quick responses. House was even cleaner than we left it. My dogs seemed to really like her, and they seemed completely happy and stress free when we arrived home.”

About: I’ve spent years caring for pets for friends and family, including walking, drop-in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and energy levels, from playful puppies to relaxed seniors. I currently live with and help care for three dogs (ages 1, 3, and 12), so I’m very familiar with managing different needs! I work part-time hours, so my time is pretty open overall. My schedule is set for each week, so my availability will be posted well in advance. I make sure to keep a consistent eye on animals even if they seem to be low maintenance. That includes indoor/outdoor time and during walks. If you have any safety concerns regarding your pet, just reach out.

“Mason did a great job pet-sitting our dogs! She is very kind and our pups love her! She is reliable, kept the house tidy, and communicated with us very consistently!”

“I cannot say enough how happy I was with Blakey! It was our first time leaving them with someone in our home and my 2 dogs didn’t even act like I had been gone when I came back! I’m pretty sure they were happy being spoiled by Blakey! Will definitely book her in the future!”

“Kashawna was incredibly caring and kept us in the loop on any changes in our babies while we were gone. We will absolutely be using her services again!”

“Erin did a great job watching our dog Kaya! We were out of town for the night and Erin made sure Kaya was well taken care of! She sent numerous photos and treated Kaya like she was her own!”

“Katie was great! We have an older dog who loves people. Katie was attentive to her needs and was prompt, friendly to our girl and took her for many walks. I highly recommend Katie.”

About: Hi friends and family! My name is Gaby and I’m 20 years old. I devote my life to making your fur babies happy. I love all dogs and your fur baby will be treated like family ❤️. I’ll follow their routine, shower them with playtime, and send you daily updates & pics 🐾📸. Guaranteed to make you and your pup smile 😊. Dogs have always and will forever hold a special place in my heart. I was a mommy to my own 2 fur babies that I took in for a family member for 4 years. I have raised litters of puppies multiple times all by myself. Growing up I would take care of my friend’s fur babies at no cost because it meant I would get free cuddles and a best friend all in one. I’m a full time pet caregiver. I’m very flexible with time since I am home 24/7. I will accommodate my time to match your pets needs. Follow their routine (feeding, playtime, potty breaks) Give 'em love & attention 🐾❤️ Keep their space clean & comfy Watch for any health concerns (energy levels, appetite) Update clients regularly 📸 Be very attentive, responsive, and patient. 📍DISCLAIMER 📍 ***Please make sure all pets vaccinations are up to date and treated for tics/fleas. 🚫🪳***

“Tyson was awesome, my dogs felt immediately comfortable around him. His knowledge of behavior and training was such a wonderful bonus. My husband and I were able to enjoy our trip knowing our home and large dogs were well cared for!”

“Ted and Sara did an excellent fun/job with The Duke. The Duke has extreme anxiety in a vehicle, so we reached out to Rover and thankfully we found Ted and Ted got The Duke to like him and Ted got to see The Duke’s sweet personality. Ted sent multiple pics and descriptions of the day with The Duke and Ted even mopped our kitchen floor, St Bernards can be very messy. Ted even left us framed pictures of The Duke, so sweet and thoughtful. If we travel again Ted is the one I’ll call and if you need someone who is competent and very good at his job, get Ted”

About: Hello my name is Hannah ! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more . My experience in pet care is from having my own animals and caring for family and friends . My boyfriend and I only have one dog ; she is a Basset Hound her name is Dolly . I will always make sure to treat your furry friends with nothing but love and attention when in my care. I work full time 9/5 but am available in the morning and after work and of course on the weekends. If needed and close enough I can check in on my lunch . I aim to keep your dog on their normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of love—while also keeping your home tidy and secure why you are away.

About: I have been helping to care of dogs and cats for my family and friends over about 12 years now. About 4 years ago I began to volunteer with local animal shelters and rescues. Through these rescues I have been able to foster, take dogs on "field trips," and socialize so many sweet fur babies! Almost 2 years ago, I adopted my own dog named Arnie, he is a Belgian Malinois and Dobermann mix. I did all training for him when he was 4 months old and have done a ton of research on the breeds. I feel confident in all breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels! I also currently live with a cat and have experience with cats as well. I am currently a medical student in Spartanburg and have time prior to class, during lunch, and in the afternoon/evenings to stop by and hang out with your pets! I also have the weekends off and my schedule varies every day with flexibility to meet the needs of your fur babies. I can guarantee I will do my best to meet the needs of you and your pet in the best way possible! My dog is super friendly and is great on leashed walks with other dogs and is great to play off leash in the dog park at my apartment. I also have support at home to be able to leave him with friends while I am at your house to watch your pets and do not need to have him with me at all times!

“Hanna agreed to help us out on short notice. She was kind, compassionate and took care of our pups. They seemed to enjoy her and will definitely be booking her again!”

“Ariel was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Chief! She was attentive, reliable, and kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which really gave me peace of mind while I was away. Chief quickly warmed up to Ariel quickly, enjoying multiple daily walks and evening cuddles. When I returned, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Ariel went above and beyond, even making sure his routine was perfectly followed. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”
