“Jill was our first experience with Rover and she was amazing! Between almost daily updates along with adorable photos, we can tell Tallula had a great time with Jill and her family! I would highly recommend using Jill and will definitely keep her in mind the next time we’re out of town! ?”
“Myra is amazing! She was reliable, caring and kept me update about my two dogs while I was away. They came home happy, relaxed and on their normal routine. I wouldn't hesitate to trust her with them again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking from someone dependable and compassionate to care for their pets.”
“I’m so glad I found Laura! We recently moved from out of state and so needed to start over with a trusted dog sitter for our 2 littles. They had been with the same sitter for several years so this would be a big change for them. Laura immediately set me at ease with her immaculate home and her calm manner. While Luna and Ruby were in high alert with the new house, they settled in quickly. Laura sent many updates and pics which was reassuring. We are confident we have found our new permanent sitter! Thank you, Laura for taking good care of our girls!”
“We were so pleased with Lane watching Roscoe. Roscoe seemed in good spirits when we picked him up. Lane would send us photos which made us feel good. We recommend Lane wholeheartedly. Ray & Jean”
“Tonya took excellent care of my diabetic cat for 10 days. She gave her the shots that she needed and sent me pictures and let her have her own space to stay in. Tonya lives on a nice farm with other animals around and she is a total professional. Very glad we met you, Tonya!”
“Teddy and Rumi absolutely love Ms. Karen and her family! She is very flexible, reliable, and truly cares for them as if they were her own. I always feel at ease knowing they are in a safe, loving, and attentive environment. Karen provides updates and makes sure their needs are met, which means so much to me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate. We are so grateful to have found her!”
“Charles did an excellent job at taking care of our very senior dog. He sent pics every day and updated us to how he was doing, how he was responding to him and his dog, and that he seemed comfortable with his surroundings. I really do appreciate his caring attitude toward Zeus; that gave us peace of mind while we were vacationing. We will definitely ask him to care for Zeus on our next vacation, and I will pass on to my friends that Charles is a wonderful canine caregiver. I appreciate Charles and Rover!”
“Our family appreciates Jimena opening her home and caring for our fur baby Keanu. Thank you Jimena for the pictures and video you sent. Whenever we are back in town we will be reaching out to Jimena for her exceptional dog sitting services. 💕😊”
“If you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you! It was such a blessing to go on vacation and not worry about my pet! My dog is old, blind and deaf, so I do worry when I go on vacation. If I am not near, he gets very anxious. And it is hard for him to navigate a new place. But after our meet and greet, my own anxiety began to leave. Rachel and Donald sent more than one daily update with pictures. For once, I was not in a hurry to get back home! When I picked him up, he acted like he would have been fine to stay longer. I could tell they loved on and cared for my dog as well as I do. I will definitely use Rachel and Donald every time I go out of town. Again, if you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you.”
“This was my first time leaving Lulu with anyone other than friends or family, since adopting her 2+ years ago. I was extremelyyyy nervous about leaving her, but Kathy sent daily texts and photos to put my mind at ease. She even let us pick up Lulu on the last day at 10PM, and greeted me with chocolate! Who doesn't love that? My first DogVacay experience was a great one, and we will definitely be using Kathy again!”
“Heather took excellent care of our dog who can be highly anxious. She communicated well with us and took her time and asked good questions ahead of time to make sure she could take care of our dog in addition to the dogs she already had in her care. We would certainly ask Heather to care for our dogs in the future.”
“We highly recommend Donald. He is Duke’s favorite sitter. Donald takes excellent care of our labradoodle and is extremely responsive. We appreciate the pictures and twice daily updates. We will continue to be a repeat customer.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have cared for four dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. I currently have an 8-year-old mutt named Tucker who is incredibly sweet. Tucker previously went through heartworm treatment, so I have experience following medication schedules and giving medication as directed. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, basic grooming, and giving pets plenty of attention. I’ve also owned and cared for parrots, iguanas, lizards, hamsters, and many other animals. I genuinely love animals and will treat every pet like one of my own. I’m currently in college and only have about three hours of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout most of the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and spending quality time with your pets. My apartment is very pet-friendly and comfortable, with plenty of places for dogs to relax. I even have a couch specifically for dogs, along with a dog bed and other cozy spots throughout the apartment. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions you provide.
About: Reliable and detailed oriented! I will get to know their personal needs , personality, and what works for them! Your pets second favorite human lol I am a body piercer. I work 10 minutes away from my home. I have a set time to take my puppy out as he is still going through potty training My apartment is pretty open for the fur babies to room around and I have a small fur baby of my own that can play with! There is a big area of grass around my complex where they can go potty and play and a dog park right up the street.

“Morgan did a wonderful job of handling our 4 cats that all have different food. She was easy to communicate with, sent us daily updates and photos. Highly recommend her!”
“Coryne was an excellent sitter. She was friendly and professional. I greatly appreciated the way she did business. She came for a visit to meet my cats and me before she came to care for them so she was aware of all expectations. She did not hesitate to ask questions if she needed clarification. Most importantly she took wonderful care of my four cats and kept me informed daily as to how they were doing. I have never left them with anyone but family but was very comfortable with leaving them in Coryne’s competent hands. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”
“Jasmine did an awesome job taking care of our cat Cruz for a week. She came to our home before we left to meet Cruz and sent photos during the week that we really appreciated. We would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for pets.”
“Kaydence was great and did a wonderful job with my girl Roxie! If you need a sitter who is punctual, does the "extra" things your pet needs to feel safe and comfortable, and is great at staying in touch about how your pet is doing, I would definitely recommend Kaydence!”
About: I grew up with two Siamese cats. I was responsible taking care of them, administering their medication, and cleaning up when they made a mess out of their litter or ate something they were not supposed to. I am fully confident, once I learn your cats routine, we will have a great bond!
“Iliana took great care of my cat while I was out of town! She made sure he had everything he needed and was easy to communicate with. I got updates every day, which gave me peace of mind. I'll be booking with her again!”
“Heather was really sweet and took great care of my cat while I was out. Even though he was shy, she made sure he was fed and had a clean litter box. She messaged me every day to update me, which I really appreciated!”
About: Hey y'all, I'm Tyanna and I'm an animal-friendly, kind-hearted pet lover/advocate who has always had a deep passion for animals. I am empathetic, nurturing, and sensitive to various needs, and I take pride in providing compassionate and attentive care to pets. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to know that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, especially while away. I have owned a variety of pets over the years, including snakes, cats, and dogs, which has given me experience with different temperaments, animal species, and care needs. I am also a lover of the outdoors and enjoy hiking, which makes me especially happy to provide dogs with needed exercise! I am a full-time student, and my time is fairly flexible. I'm willing to travel to dog sit and can stay in the pet’s home to help maintain their routine and provide stability while you are away. I am also available for daytime check-ins for pets while owners are at work, as well as dog walking to ensure pets get the exercise and attention they need. Because I am new, my level of clients on the app is currently low; however, I can provide client recommendations as needed! My schedule is fairly flexible, so please contact me for additional details. I like to keep my schedule based on how the owners daily routine is with their pet. I like to keep pets on their normal/consistent schedule and will work closely with the owners to prioritize the needs of their pets. Safety is key for me, so I require a meet and greets prior to finalizing the official reservation. This not only allows me to meet the owners and understand their needs, but it also allows me to get to know the pet and ensure we have a good connection.
“Anne was amazing with our nervous 1 year old GSP puppy. She was patient and got him to relax and took him on a great walk! Thank you so much Anne!! ☺️ We will definitely have her look after him again in the future🩷”
About: Hi! I am Alanie, I hope to meet you and your (fur) baby soon! Here is a little more about me: I have owned animals my entire life. While I am partial to dogs, I am my friend's cat's favorite auntie. To know more about me as someone providing care for your pet, it is important that you know about mine! Athena (also answers to Wiggle Butt, Feenie Weenie, and Miss Afeenz) is my ultimate side-kick. She is truly the highlight of my day and I treat her as family (because she is!). Through having Athena, I know the love of a pet parent. There is nothing I would not do to make sure she is safe, happy, and healthy. I do not trust her with just anyone, therefore I completely understand the trust and bravery it takes allowing someone else to care for your (fur) baby. Your pets will be treated with the same love and care that I give my own Athena, because that is what I would want from anyone watching her. <3 Aside from caring for Athena, I have cared for several dogs (and cats alike!) for overnight care when parents are out of town, daily walks, feeding schedules, and plenty of pets and playtime. I have experience supporting the puppy training process and am happy to care for puppers and kittens alike. I currently work 8-5pm, however, can provide potty breaks and play time with flexibility throughout the day. Additionally, I am happy to provide early morning walks, evening walks, and overnight stays to ensure your family member can relax at home while you're away. Please note, I am only able to accept weekday bookings for dogs that can be left unattended for at least 4 hours at a time. Throughout the weekend, I am more flexible and can be present with your fur baby and all their needs. My services would be best suited for someone who works overnights or odd schedules that want extra support at home through serving kibble dinner, evening strolls, play time and belly rubs, as well as overnight stays. I am also able to provide weekend care. Planning a beach trip this summer? Don't worry about your furry friends. I am happy to provide overnight care as long as your baby can stay home throughout the day for at least 4 hours without a potty break. If you have any questions about whether your needs would be a good fit with my availability, please feel free to message me. At this time, I am offering care in the pet's home environment. This is easiest for both myself and your fury friend - there's no place like home! I am happy to keep your pet's daily/weekly schedule as closely followed as possible. Walks around the neighborhood? Let's go. Fenced in yard for ample ball time? Happy to do so! If your pet is typically crated throughout the day, I can also assist with this. I am also used to and happy to allow your pet to free roam with as much (or as little) supervision as they are used to having when Mom and Dad are home. I can also provide light routine grooming (brushing, etc) depending on your pet's needs while you're away. I am also happy to provide other typical daily needs (feeding, providing medication, etc). Just let me know how best to serve your pet in their environment and we can make it happen. They won't even notice you're not home! (just kidding).
About: I have had pets since I was young. I pet sit for family members and friends regularly. My dog is my child and I treat other's pet the same way. I am currently working a full time job. During the week, I am available after 5pm. On Friday- Sun, I am available any time of the day. I make sure the pets have food and water. I like to walk the pets so they don't have built up energy. I also give them lots of love while I am there.
About: My family has animals and I have spent 9 years helping take care of their dogs and two cats. I have two dogs of my own and I have trained them myself as well as knowing when they need space, fed, or walked.

“We’re expecting our first child so it was so important to find the right sitter to watch our fur baby! He had a great time I loved receiving the pictures. I can’t thank Jill and her family enough!!!”
“Sherrie was so sweet to my young dog! I dropped my dog, Rosie, off for doggy daycare while I went to work. I picked her up around 4pm and she was exhausted! Sherrie has a great outdoor space with a huge yard and kept me updated with pictures of her playing fetch with my dog all day! She was a phenomenal Rover!”
“Laura watched our 3 year old Golden Retriever for a couple hours while we were dropping our kids off at a nearby camp. She was very kind and responsive and took great care of him! Thank you!”
“Jimena and her daughter are delightful dog sitters! This is an incredibly clean place. Beautiful outdoor space shade and then a great indoor kennel that’s quite large. Clean beds everywhere everything neat and clean. I was comfortable, leaving our princess pup there. Only 7 pounds are a little Papillion velt comfortable especially in a care of the owner. Lots of photos and check-in. Highly recommend.”
“Dawn was very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. She was friendly and easy to communicate with. My dogs were very happy when I picked them up and were exhausted on the drive home. Very pleased.”
About: I have been watching dogs for 15 years. I have experience giving medications, walking, boarding, house sitting, aggressive dogs, all breeds, and dogs of all ages! I am a registered nurse taking a break from nursing and have flexible availability to watch your pets! I am home most of the time aside from errands! I have a clean home, clutter free and no carpet. I have a yard for your pets! Cages available if needed, LOTS of toys, extra bowls, I allow dogs to sleep on the furniture or in bed if approved by owners! I’ll love your pet like it’s my own!
About: I have had, rescued, and taken care of a wide variety of dogs from smaller malti-poos to a Dane who had been living on the street, was skin and bones, and ended up 188 lbs. Currently I have Pippa, a 7-year-old Labrador who is allergic to chicken, so I make part of her food. I am home most of the time, except when I host overly-complex board games at the Hickory Library or the Highland Rec Center -- and those sessions are at most 3 hours long. I am home most days, except when I am hosting 3-hour board games at the local library and rec center. Otherwise, I take care of our house and rental properties. I have a large fenced yard -- especially-so since my house sits along North Center Street. I also use carabiners to make sure that gates are locked.
“I came up to North Carolina to spend the summer in the cooler weather. Being by myself with a senior dog meant that I would have to constantly care for him. I decided to look for somebody that I could trust that was loving and caring and had dog whisperer vibes, especially when it comes to senior dogs. I am lucky to have met Jenny. From the moment of our meet and greet , Shemp , who is usually a high anxiety dog was calm and happy. She updated me with pictures, walked him and gave me the peace of mind to know that my dog will be well cared for, which he was. I will definitely be using Jenny again and would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect person to care for their pets.”
“Amanda did a wonderful job keeping my Oliver! I immediately was put as ease by her cam friendliness and warmth. Her home is set in a safe and quiet place just right for doggie care!”
“Kassie was awesome. Buddy had a blast & enjoyed the day there. Kassie & her crew of furry friends were great hosts. The ONLY thing that prevents a 5 star rating is a lack of a fence. Kassie took Buddy for great walks, provided a great indoor environment, but he got close to the road when we left. That was on me as I didn’t have him leashed up. If Kassie ever gets a fence in the equation, it would be a “6l” on a scale to 5. Definitely will ask Kassie to Buddy watch again.”
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 have been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old, giving me about 20 years of experience. Friends, neighbors, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after pets of all sizes and temperaments. I am confident with playful puppies, calm senior pets, and even shy or anxious animals. My goal is always to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care throughout the week. Daily walks, playtime, and feeding can easily be adjusted around my routine, so your pets always get the attention they need. Whether mornings, afternoons, or evenings, I am available to provide consistent and reliable care for your furry family members I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I always make sure to follow the owner’s instructions carefully and treat every pet as if they were my own. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I give them plenty of love, supervision, and attention during their stay
About: I’ve owned or taken care of dogs for over 50 years. Friends and family are very comfortable calling on me to care for their dogs. Currently, I am fully retired and miss my own little fur baby. I would love to snuggle and care for your dog. My hours are very flexible to suit your needs. I regularly walk dogs out doors and give them much attention. In my neighborhood all dogs will be kept on a leash as per the law.
About: I have taken care of many animals over the years and always grew up with animals. I am very knowledgeable in pet care and any other needs. I currently work close to home so commute is not far at all. I have a very flexible schedule with work and can be available at many different times. I have a fenced in yard, that is very safe for all dogs. I have one small dog of my own, who is very friendly and loves other dogs.
“Katy took care of my 5-month-old puppy, Bagel, for three days while I was in the area taking a painting class. Bagel is a very sweet, social and energetic puppy who loves people and other dogs, but he can become overstimulated around other dogs and doesn’t always know how to settle himself yet. Although I had explained that ahead of time, I don’t think either Katy or I realized just how difficult it would be for him to settle in a new home with another dog around. Katy really did try hard to make him comfortable. She took him on walks, played with him, worked on calming him down, and even made a trip to the pet store for a stronger harness, leash, blanket, treats and other things she thought might help. She communicated with me throughout the day and was very honest when she felt Bagel was becoming more than she could comfortably manage for a full day. After two particularly challenging days, we agreed to shorten his third day. Interestingly, he seemed to be settling in better by then, and Katy ended up keeping him until about 2:00 rather than the noon pickup we had planned. Bagel was always happy to see Katy and willingly went with her each morning, which meant a lot to me. I also really liked Katy personally and appreciated how much she cared about making the situation work. Bagel was simply a much bigger handful in her home than I expected, and I think being around another dog all day made it especially hard for him to turn himself off and rest. I’m grateful for the effort Katy put in and for how much she genuinely cared about Bagel during his stay.”

About: I have always had dogs and cats personally, and am now fortunate enough to have a nice backyard to share with other non-aggressive dog friends. I am a clinicial social worker who works from home. I have a flexible schedule that allows me time to take care of the animals. I wish I had a picture of when I am settled on the couch for the evening and all four of my pets are surrounding me. I love them and will love your animals with all of my heart. If you are looking for a pet-sitter, I am sure you feel the same way.

About: Hi pet-parent! I'm Coryne (pronounced "Kor-in" technically), and I'm starting a brand new career as a mental health therapist, which means I both don't have space for my own pets and need a little extra cash -- as a lifelong pet parent and animal lover who grew up around all sorts of animals; from cats and dogs, to horses and parrots, this is the first time, I'm not able to have pets of my own for awhile... so I have a big ol' hole in my heart to fill and I'm hoping you let me fill it with your friends while you're away! EXPERIENCE: - Primary professional and personal experience: dogs, cats, horses - Additional (minor) experience: bunnies and birds - Experience administering oral/topical meds, I know all the tricks, and happy to learn yours! - Experience with animal-reactive pets. I know how to dance the dance with them with multi-pet households where not everyone gets along perfectly. - Experience thinking on my feet when the unexpected happens, you can rely on me to figure it out, even if you forgot to write that one thing down. HIRING ME: - I'm happy sleeping on the couch, no need to make up a bed for me unless your pets prefer it. <3 - I will need some strong wi-fi for that remote work life, but that's about it. - Some pets are a bit wary of males, but are typically still comfortable with me even though I'm more male-presenting. - If you want pictures while you're away, I'm happy to blow up your phone with pictures and updates - my phone is full of 'em already and I love it! I work remotely, so pet care is easily something I can work into my routine in nearly any shape that takes for your own pets. I go above and beyond for my own pets, and I'd hope anyone watching them would do the same. So, I hope to provide that to your pets in any way you deem fit. I'm pretty good at learning and mimicking your routines with them so they feel as at ease as possible while you're away. Tell me all the funny little steps you have; even if they're crazy, tell me, and I'll do my best to make it happen.
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals and people—including work as a veterinary technician and a retired CNA/caregiver—I provide dependable, detail-oriented care you can trust. At Denney’s Den, dogs enjoy doggy Airbnb-style stays in my home- a calm, cozy, low-stress environment where they’re treated like family and given personalized attention while away from their hoomans. I also offer drop-in visits in your home, ensuring your pets receive consistent, compassionate care in the space they’re most comfortable. Since retiring from healthcare, caring for animals has become my full-time work. I am home most days, allowing me to provide hands-on attention, supervision, and a calm, structured routine for the pets in my care. My home offers a calm, safe environment with a large fenced yard and two friendly dogs. I intentionally limit the number of boarding dogs so each pet receives personalized attention. Crating is used only if preferred by the owner. For drop-in visits, I take great care to respect your home while ensuring your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine.

Other than that I am as free as you need me to be! I care for pets by following their routine, keeping them safe, fed, and happy, and giving them plenty of love and attention whether in my home or yours.
About: I have owned dogs since I was 4. I have handled every size from chihuahuas to Great Danes. I am able to work with senior dogs as well as puppies. Given the opportunity to care for your furry friend, I am confident a great bond will form! I have open availability as long as I am given proper notice. I myself have 2 dogs who I take care of and need to ensure that someone will be with them if I am needed for house-sitting. Other than that I am freely available for services! I do not offer boarding within my home, however, I do know how to work most house alarms if needed for house-sitting. I also know how to work prong collars if you use one for your pet.
“Iliana took great care of our dog while we were away! She was even available to drop back in when we were unexpectedly delayed getting home. We'll book her again for our future pet sitting needs!”

I am usually very affectionate with dogs, but can adjust to your specific communication style if specified. I am constantly learning more about dog behavior and feel passionate about providing the best experience for both you and your dog. I am self-employed so have lots of flexibility on a day to day basis. I have a partner who helps care for my own pets, so yours will always be my top priority! I enjoy walking dogs and playing with cats (if they let me! haha). Animals are such an important part of so many of our life’s and I treat each pet I sit like my own!
About: 🐾 Lifelong Pet Lover | Rescue Dog & Cat Parent I’ve had pets my entire life and truly believe every animal deserves patience, love, and a safe environment. I’m currently a proud pet parent to a 1-year-old German Shepherd/Husky mix whom I rescued from a difficult situation, along with two cats—one of whom I also rescued. I’ve personally crate-trained and potty-trained my dog, worked with her on basic skills and obedience, and helped her become comfortable and well-socialized around both people and other animals. Having rescue pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, understanding, and paying attention to each pet’s individual personality and needs. Your pets won’t just be “another booking” to me—I’ll treat them like family. ❤️ 🐾 Flexible Schedule | Plenty of Time for Your Pets My schedule is mainly open and flexible, which allows me to easily fit pet care into my day and give your pets the time and attention they deserve. The only regular time I reserve is Sunday mornings for church. ❤️ 🐾 How I Care for My Pets I keep my dog Reesie on a consistent feeding routine with unlimited fresh water. My cats also have unlimited food and water and are used to self-regulating their eating habits. We spend plenty of time together—whether we’re playing in the backyard, relaxing in the living room, or going on walks around my safe, quiet neighborhood. I believe pets thrive with consistency, attention, exercise, and lots of love. ❤️
About: **Former housesitting duo with my husband! We have now settled into Linville Land Harbor and had a baby so I am only accepting drop-in and walk requests at this time** Hi! I'm Megan! As a former Kennel/Vet Tech with Vet Tech schooling and growing up with dogs, cats, horses and chickens, I have always had a special bond and connection to animals.

I would love to help out with drop-ins and dog walks! I take the safety of your pets and the care of your home very serious. If you have pets that require special attention or have high anxiety, I’m there to ensure everyone is safe, relaxed, and taken care of. I care for your pets as if they were my own and you can be rest assured they'll not only have their needs met, but be loved, played with and given plenty of attention as well!
About: I've taken care of my pets since I was 5, dogs and cats. I have bathed, fed, and consistently walked my dogs and played with my cats. I'm currently taking care of my daughter, but she has daycare 9-12 Mon-Thursday, and in the afternoons I can ask my boyfriend to take care of our daughter. I plan to take care of your pets in the client's home, and do whatever is needed to help offer the best care for your pets.

Along with assuring each pet is happy and are enjoying their time with me. So much that I want them to be excited with just hearing my name.

I have two dogs of my own and I have trained them myself as well as knowing when they need space, fed, or walked.

About: I am 27 year old business analyst looking for a part time job. I love pets and people so I thought this would be a great fit for me. I am a kind, determined young professional that is easy going, but also determined. I recently moved to the city from New York. In New York my parents have a golden retriever that I helped raise and look after. My roommates also had a cat on college that I helped assist. I look forward to this new opportunity and will be as polite and careful with your pets as possible. To me animals are like mini people that require a certain level of responsible. Thank you for the opportunity to look after your pets and work with you. I work from home and my schedule is very flexible. I am also mobile. I do have a job, but it is very flexible. Thank you. I have a fenced yard. My house is very clean and there are no hazardous materials or items around. I am very friendly and will treat your pets with the utmost kindness.
About: Animals just relax around me. I’ve worked with many pet owners who are apprehensive to leave their pets with anyone due to the pet’s nervous temperaments, and other various quirks, and every single time the animals have surprised their owners by completely settling in with me. I prioritize play, love, and connecting with each individual pet I watch however they specifically need. I’ve looked after animals of all breeds, ages, & temperaments- from anxious & fussy older pets to energetic young puppies. I have experience administering medications to sick animals, hand feeding injured puppies, walking several pets at once, and managing dogs & cats that are a bit wild. I’ve even cared for lizards, turtles, fish, plants (haha), hamsters, birds, & rabbits. Whatever their needs, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, & at home while they’re with me. I am a potter who works from my home studio, and I make my own schedule- so I can generally be flexible and accommodate your pets needs. I love having pets in my home, and breaking away from my studio to get some fresh air and puppy/kitty love too! If I’m working on a big project, it’s nice to have to flexibility to come and go from my studio when possible, or have your pet there with me- but I have worked out all kinds of house sit/drop in/boarding arrangements according to the needs of clients and their pets. Let’s talk! I live in a peaceful home with a large fenced in backyard, and nice quiet streets to walk with your pet as needed. I will follow whatever routines you generally stick to and prefer when working with your animals. Give me all the details of your needs and preferences, boundaries and particulars- no matter what type of sit- so I can be sure you and your pet(s) feel a sense of trust, ease, and predictability.

“Jill was our first experience with Rover and she was amazing! Between almost daily updates along with adorable photos, we can tell Tallula had a great time with Jill and her family! I would highly recommend using Jill and will definitely keep her in mind the next time we’re out of town! ?”
“I’m so glad I found Laura! We recently moved from out of state and so needed to start over with a trusted dog sitter for our 2 littles. They had been with the same sitter for several years so this would be a big change for them. Laura immediately set me at ease with her immaculate home and her calm manner. While Luna and Ruby were in high alert with the new house, they settled in quickly. Laura sent many updates and pics which was reassuring. We are confident we have found our new permanent sitter! Thank you, Laura for taking good care of our girls!”
“We were so pleased with Lane watching Roscoe. Roscoe seemed in good spirits when we picked him up. Lane would send us photos which made us feel good. We recommend Lane wholeheartedly. Ray & Jean”
“Tonya took excellent care of my diabetic cat for 10 days. She gave her the shots that she needed and sent me pictures and let her have her own space to stay in. Tonya lives on a nice farm with other animals around and she is a total professional. Very glad we met you, Tonya!”
“Charles did an excellent job at taking care of our very senior dog. He sent pics every day and updated us to how he was doing, how he was responding to him and his dog, and that he seemed comfortable with his surroundings. I really do appreciate his caring attitude toward Zeus; that gave us peace of mind while we were vacationing. We will definitely ask him to care for Zeus on our next vacation, and I will pass on to my friends that Charles is a wonderful canine caregiver. I appreciate Charles and Rover!”
“Our family appreciates Jimena opening her home and caring for our fur baby Keanu. Thank you Jimena for the pictures and video you sent. Whenever we are back in town we will be reaching out to Jimena for her exceptional dog sitting services. 💕😊”
“If you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you! It was such a blessing to go on vacation and not worry about my pet! My dog is old, blind and deaf, so I do worry when I go on vacation. If I am not near, he gets very anxious. And it is hard for him to navigate a new place. But after our meet and greet, my own anxiety began to leave. Rachel and Donald sent more than one daily update with pictures. For once, I was not in a hurry to get back home! When I picked him up, he acted like he would have been fine to stay longer. I could tell they loved on and cared for my dog as well as I do. I will definitely use Rachel and Donald every time I go out of town. Again, if you have a dog with needs, or just a dog you love, I would highly recommend Rachel and Donald to you.”

I unfortunately do not board any dogs at this time.I am only able to do check ins for cats and dogs or walks for the doggos.
“Heather took excellent care of our dog who can be highly anxious. She communicated well with us and took her time and asked good questions ahead of time to make sure she could take care of our dog in addition to the dogs she already had in her care. We would certainly ask Heather to care for our dogs in the future.”
“Chestnut is fabulous! This was our first time leaving our 3 year puggle behind on vacation, she was loved and well cared for and we had zero worries. Love that we have a found a great sitter. Highly recommend.”
“We highly recommend Donald. He is Duke’s favorite sitter. Donald takes excellent care of our labradoodle and is extremely responsive. We appreciate the pictures and twice daily updates. We will continue to be a repeat customer.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have cared for four dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. I currently have an 8-year-old mutt named Tucker who is incredibly sweet. Tucker previously went through heartworm treatment, so I have experience following medication schedules and giving medication as directed. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, basic grooming, and giving pets plenty of attention. I’ve also owned and cared for parrots, iguanas, lizards, hamsters, and many other animals. I genuinely love animals and will treat every pet like one of my own. I’m currently in college and only have about three hours of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout most of the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and spending quality time with your pets. My apartment is very pet-friendly and comfortable, with plenty of places for dogs to relax. I even have a couch specifically for dogs, along with a dog bed and other cozy spots throughout the apartment. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions you provide.
