“Suzanne and her husband took great care of our pup, even as he became ill. How much she cares is truly uncommon and so appreciated. I want to note how she even took care of our home, cleaning up after the sick pup. Maury looks forward to the next time Suzanne is coming over for a walk!”

About: Hello, my name is Emily, I am 21 years old and love animals :) I have 5 years of pet sitting experience, and working at Pawville for 3 years as a kennel attendant. I can help with pet walking and sitting. I can also help with adjacent tasks such as keeping an eye on the house, watering plants, collecting mail, bringing trash cans to the road, light chores (ex: vacuuming, sweeping, cleaning windows), etc. I have no issue cleaning up after pets, cleaning up accidents, throw up, litter boxes, etc. as long as the appropriate cleaning supplies are provided and available for me to use. I love cats and big dogs, and no issue with Pitbulls, they are a favorite of mine :) I’m currently a third year college student home for the summer and just looking for some part time work to earn some money before heading back, so my schedule is very flexible at the moment. I can crate pets if needed, I have no issues cleaning up after pets; including accidents, throw up, litter boxes, etc. as long as the necessary cleaning products are provided. I am alright with vacuuming, sweeping, and cleaning up dirty windows if needed.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I have some vet experience, and have house sat for many friends. I am very patient with dogs and cats. I treat any animal as my own and have personal training experience with my dog as well. I am currently working part time and have a lot of time during the week and weekends to play with your fur babies to give you a piece of mind! Unfortunately I have 3 animals at home so I am not able to have animals at home :( I love dogs and cats and want to help anyone who may not have as much time to get out with their fur babies or for those that just need a breather!

About: Hi! I’m Carrie, and I’m a lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. As a Navy retiree, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care and plenty of one-on-one time with your pet. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I’ll treat them as if they were my own. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Since my kids are pretty grown now, it seems my life revolves around my animals. I am active, so I love to take the pups for walks or hikes (depending on weather). The cats sort of do their own thing, but I’m always down for cat snugs. Our home does allow animals to have free roam. They are allowed in all rooms and on furniture. If your babies are not good with cats, we will not be able to take them. We will give them all the love while you are away and send your photos as much (or as little) as you would like. In your home I will respect all your rules. If you don’t want them on furniture or particular rooms, just let me know and we will follow those guidelines. The love and photo sending mentioned above applies here!

“I have a picky, crazy dog but she LOVES Anna and gets so excited for their walks!! Anna also sends updates to tell me how it is going. I’m so glad I found her!”

About: I have been around animals since I was born. I have trained every single one of my dogs since I can remember. I love bringing dogs to dog parks or on hikes if you/ they are okay with it. Animals have always become very attached to me when they meet me so I wouldn't be able to let you or your pets down. I am always very approachable to all animals so that they don't feel as if they're at harm. I wish to treat your dog(s)/ cat(s)/ reptiles/ rodents just as I treat mine and I hope to be able to spend a lot of unforgettable time with them to gain a forever friendship. I also offer kitty services! I have a MaineCoon of my own, who is my best friend of course. My friends call me “the animal whisperer” because even the most anxious animals love and trust me. Can’t wait to cuddle your pup/kitty. I am very aware of COVID and will be sure to leave your home COVID free and clean every surface I have touched before I leave your home while also being fully vaccinated. I currently work Monday- Friday 9-5, I mostly WFH. Some times I will go into office but most likely not during my stay with your pets. As for Saturday and Sunday I can be at your service mostly full time. I am able to crate your dog if needed, and we can go on great hikes if they’d enjoy! I would take any precaution that you have while being at your house for the safety of your animals. I understand how stressful it is leaving your animal with someone else but rest assured I will communicate of any concerns (even the small ones) as that is important.

About: I am a reliable, caring and flexible caretaker. I was a Instructor at Ecological Marine Adventures. I was responsible for handling and caring for reptiles, amphibians, and rodents. My first pet sitting job was when I was 10 and I have had training on basic obedience skills, senior care and puppy care. My mother trains dogs and I have learned most of my tools from her. I have transportation and am located in wilmington. I have had many clients including neighbors, friends and referrals and they have relied on me for long periods of time as their main caretaker. I have had experience dealing with special needs dogs and dogs requiring specific tailored care. I am currently attending College and have a flexible schedule. I wake early and go to be early as I am not your average college student at CofC:) My first priority is ensuring safety, and knowing what specific commands and instructions each pet requires. I ensure good communication with my clients and make sure they are cared for and loved. I love taking videos and pictures of your pets because it’s important to me as well as a pet owner. I have one cat and one dog and am responsible for all their care and medical needs. I take my dog to the dog park to do an obstacle Course and have a backpack to take my cat on walks outside safely.
