“Andrea updated me everyday about my pup and did an awesome just exercising him and letting him have fun! She was very flexible when I had a few last minute drop off/pick up time and date changes which greatly eased my stress. I will definitely book with her again next time I need a sitter in the New Bern area!”

“Michelle was a fantastic sitter for our Pepper. She provided daily updates and photos, and it was apparent that Pepper was enjoying his time with her. We highly recommend Michelle”


“Great spot to board our dog. Jenna did a great job with Frieda. She was relaxed when we got her home instead of being frazzeled from barking dogs in a kennel. Thanks again for short notice stay.”


“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her! He got along so well with her male cat and even had fun with her two kids. Olivia was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our kitten was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

About: Animals have always been the center of my life. I'm currently a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) and PhD student at North Carolina State University, where I focus on animal health and welfare. Before returning to veterinary school, I spent over a decade leading teams in the technology industry, so reliability, communication, and professionalism are second nature. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, an older parrot, an independent and opinionated cat, or a shy saltwater goby, I take care of them all. For every single animal, from a senior who needs a slower pace or simply loves extra attention, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I understand normal pet behavior, can recognize when something doesn't seem right, and I'm comfortable administering most medications if needed. While you're away, you can expect: Frequent photo and video updates Prompt communication Play and engagement tailored to their energy level Plenty of affection and enrichment Respect for your pet's routine and training I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful. My goal is to make both you and your loved one feel completely at ease from our first meet-and-greet through the moment you return home. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend(s)! My dissertation-writing schedule gives me the flexibility to provide dependable, individualized care without rushing from place to place. Caring for pets is something I intentionally weave into my day, so your dog or cat receives genuine attention, enrichment, and companionship, not just a quick stop in. I love having animals as part of my daily routine, and I strive to make every visit feel calm, engaging, and tailored to your pet's unique personality. Creating a safe, enriching environment for animals is simply part of who I am. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, and relax under close supervision. Because I share my home with my own dogs, fish, and other beloved animals, it's already thoughtfully designed with their safety and well-being in mind. From secure fencing and pet-safe spaces to keeping anything potentially hazardous out of reach, I strive to create an environment where every animal can feel comfortable and secure. I believe every living being deserves kindness, patience, and respect. Whether your pet loves to run and play, curl up for a nap, or quietly observe the world around them, I'll provide a calm, loving space where they can settle in and feel at home. My goal isn't just to "watch" your pet, it's to make them feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while you're away.
About: I’ve taken care of multiple animals throughout my life, such as dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, ducks, and chickens. I’m very reliable and will make sure to follow directions on how you want your animal taken care of. I am currently a student and have a part time job, but I also have a lot of free time on my hands making this type of job perfect for me. I grew up around cats and dogs growing up and care deeply for animals. For animals I board I like to do a meet and greet to let your animal get to know an unfamiliar place with you there. For dog sitting I like to do a meet and greet at the house or a nearby park to get to know your pet and so that I’m not a stranger to them when hanging with them.

“Monica exceeded my expectations. Until Monica, my cat Sinner would only engage with me. In a few days time Monica was able to pet Sinner and play with her. I appreciate her taking the time and being so patient with my cat. Monica sent nice photos and reports daily. She left the house clean and the cat happy. I'll definitely be recommending her and having her back again.”

About: i’ve been volunteering at a horse adoption farm since 2015 and have been working in pet resorts for the past 3 years. i’m CPR and Fear Free certified and have experience working with all types of dogs, including fearful, reactive, aggressive, big, and small dogs. i’m currently in school for nuclear medicine, but working with animals has always been one of my biggest passions! Since I’m currently in school to be a nuclear medicine I realized having a fast paced full time job wasn’t best idea, so I order to focus more on school I have started pet sitting As a pet sitter, I stick to the pet’s routine for feeding, exercise, and medication just as the client instructs. I make sure they always have fresh water and the right food. I enjoy playing with them and keeping them active, and I handle grooming and cleaning up after them. I spend time getting them comfortable with me, treating their pet like my own. I keep an eye on their health, looking out for any signs of illness, and have emergency contacts ready just in case. I make sure their space is safe and cozy, following any specific client instructions to keep everyone happy and relaxed.

“Booking with Kiley was the best decision we ever made! She sent tons of pics and videos, and nova had so much fun spending the weekend with her and her family. She played, did some crafts, and was so well taken care of. Nova is a puppy, and our baby so knowing she was in the hands of someone who loved her just as much as we do made us feel so much better about leaving for a long weekend. If you’re doubting if you should book- just do it!”
