“I’ve booked Melody multiple times now, and I’ll keep coming back because she’s simply the best! She’s attentive, caring, and goes above and beyond to make sure my pets are happy and comfortable. Her communication is excellent! I always get updates and photos that put my mind at ease. It’s such a relief knowing my pets are in such capable and loving hands. Highly recommend!”


“Erica is awesome! I even gave her the wrong address and she was still nice enough to turn around and go back to the right address. 10/10 and would recommend to my family and friends”


“Rachel has been ABSOLUTELY AMAZING she went above and beyond for our kitty! She left amazing notes and pics for us and brought over treats and toys to play with our kitty everyday!”


“Sara has been our trusted checker-inner for our wee furs for over a year now. She is efficient, kind, caring and attentive. There’s a lot of stress when traveling, but knowing Sara is in charge of the house and also the boys it takes a big chunk of it away. 🤍 HIGHLY recommend her!”


“Alexandra provided care in our home for two dogs over multiple days. She followed all of our instructions and showed up on time to all the assigned visits. Based on the photos she provided of each visit, the dogs were comfortable with her and even ate regularly, which they sometimes do not when we are away. We would hire Alexandra again without hesitation.”



“Felicity was a very good fit for my cat Chloe. Felicity came in everyday to feed, water and play with my cat. My cat Chloe warmed up to Felicity right away at the meet and greet. She would always send daily reports and pictures on how my cat was doing while I was away on vacation. I would use Felicity again to watch my cat again if I needed her. So definitely recommend her to watch your pet.”


About: I have taken care of dogs of all breed (10 pounds to 100 pounds) and all ages (6 months to 10 years) with feeding, potty breaks, and walking. As well as, house/pet sitting for a week at a time with multiple dogs and multiple times. Currently a grad student at Charlotte with my class schedule being Tuesday and Thursday 10am to 12:30pm and Wednesday 10am to 3:30pm. Starting in the fall my class schedule will change to mtwth starting at 8am till 12pm and I will 10-15 hours of clinicals. I have three Bernese Mountain Dogs back home that I have fed, gave potty breaks, walked, and played with. Being able to handle those three 80+ pound dogs, has allowed me to be able to feel comfortable handling pets of all sizes.

“Sheyla is such a a sweetheart and was good to & with my baby, she even brought him a little gift. I had a last minute trip come up and she really came through for me. Would definitely recommend her. And I'm sure my little guy would be thrilled to see her again ✨”


“I was so nervous with this being my first time using an in-house dog sitter however Jai listen to my concerns and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. Chewy and I enjoyed her and I will definitely be using her again. Thanks again Jai, you’re the sweetest. Hands out 10/10 experience.”


“Anna did a wonderful job watching our two cats over the holidays! She let us know about any issues immediately and was very professional through the entire process. And she sends great pictures!”


“I would highly recommend Tori! Tori watched my cat Uno for multiple days. She sent me pictures and let me know how Uno was doing each day. When I got home she had left us another note outlining each day she came to visit! I know Uno loved having the company while we were away! Tori also came over when I first booked her to do a meet and greet with Uno - which I so appreciated as I’ve never used this site to book a pet sitter before so wasn’t sure of the whole process! Tori is so sweet and kind and I felt so comfortable with leaving Uno in her care. She was also a great communicator outside of the days she visited. She’s always very prompt in texting back! We have Tori already booked again for another trip we are going on! Once again, highly recommend!”


About: Growing up with animals in the house was an obvious start. However, the past few years I have transitioned into full time animal care positions. I previously worked at a local cat cafe, where I helped take care of 12 rescue cats while helping them get to find their forever homes. Currently, I work at an animal hospital, where I devote every day to dogs and cats getting preventative, medical, and surgical care. As far as animal care, I am fear-free certified as well as cat friendly veterinary professional certified. I work full time at an animal hospital, but my weekends can be dedicated to your pets as well! I can provide daily check ins as needed, but I plan for this to be something I can do as needed. Our furry friends are just as much apart of our homes as we are. I believe pets should feel comfortable in their homes, with extra special places just for them. For my personal home, my cat has free roam but I have created spots for her to have as safe-zones as well.

“Second time using John for drop-in visits while I was out of town and my pup and I couldn’t be happier with how he treats my dog like his own. He communicates well, sends plenty of pictures and updates and will use him again in a heart beat!”


“I had to schedule some last-minute petsitting from abroad and Melissa was very accommodating! It was so nice having peace of mind in what could have been a stressful situation. I enjoyed getting pictures of my pets getting lots of love. Thank you, Melissa!”


About: I’ve had to opportunity to take care of various kinds of cats and dogs for neighbors and friends. I am very reliable and punctual - as I understand that your best friend deserves the best care! I currently work 7-3:30 so I have plenty of time in early mornings and afternoons/evenings to hang out with your pet and show them the love and care that they deserve while you are away! I care for pets in client’s home by following any list given to make sure your pet’s needs come first, and I make sure to communicate with the owner! I love to send pictures to keep you updated as well.

“Brandon was absolutely the best with our Captain. He showed up on time and took care of everything we asked. He also was so nice to ask if we would like for him to bring our trash cans to the back since we were on vacation. Very thoughtful. Through the pics, we could tell Captain was very happy with Brandon. He played very well with him. Very thankful.”

Breana G.
“Breana is truly amazing! She took incredible care of my golden retriever and also my three Bernese mountain dogs, which is no small task. She is incredibly attentive, patient, and caring. She treats each of my dogs as if they were her own. What really sets Breana apart is her ability to handle large, energetic breeds with ease and confidence. My Bernese can be intimidating to some, but Breana handles them well and made them feel comfortable and loved. She doesn’t just do the basics and leave, she genuinely takes the time to bond with your pets and ensure they’re happy and well cared for. If you’re looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and experienced, Breana is the one. I highly recommend her!”

On top of that, she even surprised my pup with a thoughtful little gift. talk about going the extra mile! Thank you, Sheyla, for your attention to detail and for taking such great care of Ky’zee. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

Lauren is amazing, she kept my cat baby super happy, played with him and sent the most adorable pictures. I could rest assured that he was in great hands because she was diligent, asked good questions and went above and beyond. I’d totally book with her again! 🙂

Ashtonette was a wonderful sitter! She walked our two big dogs(46 and 68lb) no problem, and made sure they were fed and watered while we were away for a week. She bought them more food when they ran out and even brought them treats. Communication was quick and easy. Loved this sitter and we’ll be booking again!
