“Thank you Lindsy, my baby Millie had a wonderful time with you and your family. She came home happy and tired from playing and napping all day. I appreciate your accommodation and kindness, we will be booking again for sure, probably today!”
“Jharasen was kind, communicative, and treated my dog well! He came home happy and well exercised. There were other dogs around for him to play with, which I think helped keep his separation anxiety well managed.”
“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”
About: I’m a really friendly person and my husband and I treat dogs like family. I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 kids so I’m available 7 days a week; the only time I leave the house is to go food shopping so the dogs are rarely left alone. I do request that the dogs are friendly towards kids! I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around and play! We also have 3 goats with their own house and fenced in area. Whether you allow your dogs on your furniture is a preference I’d love to learn, we allow them on our furniture as long as it’s something that they already do at home. I know most dogs are on a potty schedule so in order to maintain that I’d want to know how frequently they’re let out. Above all else they’d be spoiled with love and treated like family! Pups that only receive dog walking would be shown the same kind of love as all the other pups despite the small amount of time! I have two children ages 6 & 3 that I have at home with me and I homeschool them. This is my only source of income, so I’m always available to tend to animals that are entrusted to me! Your furry friends would fed according to their normal feeding schedule. We allow our dogs on the couch and our bed, so if that’s something you allow as well (or don’t allow) let me know so we don’t deviate from what you want for them! If they need to be crated at night let me know.
“Once again Lauren and Jonathan did an amazing job taking care of Chuck Norris the doodle. We always know that he is in great hands and is having a great time when he’s with them. Thanks for hanging out with Chuck Norris”
“Where do I begin? Kashawna was outstanding with my babies. I think she spoiled them even more(if possible)😂 she took them on walks mixed their food kelp them on their feeding schedule and loved on them. I also received plenty pics which made it easy for me to relax and enjoy my vacation. Will definitely use her again!”
“Heather was extremely communicative and quick to respond to all communications. I visit the area once each fall from outside the state. I am glad to know of someone who will treat my pups well and be extremely professional. I could not be happier with my decision to trust my best friend with Heather.”
“I left my German Shepherd Beagle Harbour and unfixed Pitbull Ace with Natalie for 4 days and 3 nights. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Upon drop off, she met me right at my vehicle and helped get the boys, their crates, and bags inside. Upon pick up, she did the exact same. Also, to my surprise, both the boys had been bathed and wearing the cutest bandannas. She sent lots of photos and video updates throughout their stay and they always look like they were having a blast. She even let them cuddle in bed with her at night. Definitely going to book with Natalie over and over again!!!”
“Excellent, empathetic care for our two dogs, both of whom can be on the shy side. We are a repeat client and plan to continue requesting care from Angela and her family.”
“Mason and Christian were very accommodating, even when we needed to come back one day late. Hermione seemed to thrive in their care. We will use them again!”

“Amy took care of my 5 year old dachshund (Molly) for 6 days. My family absolutely loves Molly and we had not been away from her in about 3 years. It was really hard to leave her but Amy sent me updates and pictures. She never acted like I was bothering her when I would ask for an extra update. Molly is not just a dog to my family, she is our baby, and I will not hesitate to leave her with Amy again if we are unable to take her on vacation with us again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Carrie & Kurt! My fur babies are always so happy when they stay with them! They’re also always exhausted when they come home, which I love. I get daily updates with pictures and sometimes videos. We’ve had our babies stay with them several times now and they will continue staying with them as long as they’ll have them! Thank you for giving us peace of mind about our fur babies while we travel.”
“Ashley was great! Chang looked like he was having a great time in his pictures that she sent to me. I’m very appreciative of her being comfortable with Chang being old and having several issues. I will definitely be using her again!”
“Absolutely amazing, my dogs were very well taken care off for the whole week, Kendra constantly texted me their photos, I couldn't recommend her enough and can't wait to book again♡!”

Cat caregivers near you - Avondale
About: I've grown up with kitties my entire life. From taking in kittens that we're abandoned and needed bottle fed every hour, to an elderly cat who needed a loving home to call their own for the last years of their lives. I am very passionate for my work with animals.
“Our cat is not the sweetest but Blakely is ☺️! She taken really good care of our cranky cat Kitz, even though Kitz mostly hisses at her. She’s very responsive whenever we have questions and sends pictures so we know she’s okay. We’re so happy we found a new cat sitter we can trust. Thank you Blakely!!!”
“Gabbi was great - communicated frequently with us, showed us photos and videos of our baby, worked with us on our home security system, and took great care of our cat! Highly recommend, and will rebook the next time we travel!”
“Lindsy was amazing and we felt so comfortable leaving our cat in her care while we were out of town. Lindsy visited as scheduled and was very communicative, with lots of photos, video, and comments about our cat’s activities. We would definitely trust Lindsy again!”
“Mason was great- highly recommend! She was so prompt in answering my request and all my messages. I felt very comfortable on my trip knowing Penny was in good hands. She arrived right on time for her visits, sent so many cute pics, and kept me updated on Penny the whole time. I will def be booking again next time I need a sitter and would recommend her to anyone in the area!”
“She is the one if you have a cat/cats! So this was my first Rover experience and I didn’t have anything to compare it to other than having a friend check on our cat while we were gone. I haven’t gone away longer than a couple days since having Hunter because I worry about him being stressed and confused. If you love a cat/cats, you know how it is. We want to take them with, but it is even more stressful and sometimes dangerous for some of them. As far as Victoria goes, she has set the bar really high and I only want her to pet sit for us for as long as she is on here. Our meet and greet went well and her energy was very pet friendly and warm. My cat can be a weirdo about changes and new people, but he did approach and smell her during that initial meeting. While we were away she took great care of him and sent photos which helped us to relax and enjoy our time. We really lucked out and I hope good people continue to sign up to do this service especially for us cat owners. Rover itself was easy to use and I think the fee (separate from the daily rate) is fair as of 10/2024 because the ease of finding someone, reading reviews, entering payment info, messaging, and photos. I would absolutely use this provider and Rover again.”
About: Out of my forty years of experience, I have learned cats are strange magical creatures that you can learn a lot from. From my first cat Kirby to the cats I have now – Witchka, Mama Cat, Spook, and Apollo, each one has taught me something different about themselves and about the world. I also have a profound respect and love for cats. I have been around animals my entire life. Growing up around a grooming solon taught me how to treat animals, and also having cats of my own taught me the responsibility and enjoyment of owning and being a cat parent. My past experiences include: • Working at PetSmart Hotel • Being PetSmart certified • Knowing cat first aid • A cat whisperer • Working with PAWS of Rutherford County and ASPCA • A portion of candles that I made do go to PAWS of Rutherford County. • Being able to give cats medication. I will treat your fuzzy children like my own. If you want someone who will love your cats and be a great substitute pet parent, then look no further than me. Have a wonderful day with your fuzzy kids!

I am also working on getting my training business started here in Forset city and am currently an intern with a trainer in Mills river helping out with an agility class on Wednesday nights. having the knowledge and backing of the trainer I have been able to find creative ways to help with dogs who seemed stressed or needing more outlets when with me. I am super excited to start my journey out here in Forset city and cant wait to meet and help the community here. I hope to hear from you and your pup soon, and thank you for considering me to take care of your family pet. I have a fenced-in yard that the dogs can play in when I am home. They are also able to come in and hang out inside as well. I do keep all dogs separated when I am not home and/or able to watch them and at meal time just for safety reasons. Ibam a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty open, besides for any appointments i might have to go. The only days i am consistently away from the house are Wednesdays from 10 to 3 and Thursdays from 11 to 6 when im at class. I have a fenced-in yard part of it is what i call my rainy day yard which is truf grass with a 3 ft fence around it ... I also have a 6ft fence around the while back yard for the dry days that make the play space much bigger ... but who wants to play in the rain anyways lol. I do slow introduction with ever new pup that comes in and go at their pace to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible while they are staying with me.

Dogs have access to a fenced yard and spend several hours outside playing together If your dog feels more comfortable in a crate they can sleep in the crate or in my room. Each dog is different. My goal is to do what makes them most comfortable.

“Jharasen was amazing! Lulu had the best time and was so well cared for. I could tell she was comfortable and happy the entire stay. I really appreciated the updates and the attention she was given—it made me feel completely at ease. It’s not always easy leaving your dog, but I would 100% trust Jharasen again. Highly recommend! 🐶💛”

About: I have had experience with animals since I was a young child, we have always had animals in our home.

My schedule is very flexible so I am able to fit in your schedule as well! Currently I have a very open schedule for pet care, so I am open to any routine that fits your schedule! Just let me know what you need!

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was the age of 10, I have mostly taken care of smaller dogs, but I can also take care of bigger ones. I'm currently not employed and I'm looking for this to be my job, it would be better if I took care of your pet after 12pm. I take care of six cats and a dog in my home. I provide food and water to them and make sure that they take their medications. I spend a great bit of my time making sure that they are happy and healthy, I get down to their level and spend time playing with them.
About: With many years of experience as a veterinary technician in both shelter and clinic settings, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and care to every pet I work with. My hands-on experience ranges from administering medications and handling emergencies to comforting anxious pets and supporting their emotional well-being. I’ve worked with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs, making me exceptionally well-prepared for pet sitting, dog walking, and providing attentive, professional care. Your pets will be in the hands of someone who treats them with the same compassion, patience, and expertise that I’ve developed over years in the field! I love being able to meet other people's fur babies and make them feel safe and happy when under my care.❤️ I am currently only working three days a week at my veterinary clinic, which leaves me with a fairly open and flexible schedule. This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, dog walking, and providing reliable, attentive care for your pets when you need it most. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and behavior. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and a calm atmosphere. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their regular routine to reduce stress, keep their space tidy, and make sure they feel secure and loved while their owners are away. My background as a veterinary technician means I’m also confident handling any special needs or medical situations that may arise.
About: I would love to be considered to watch your fur baby!! I love them like my own, and make sure to take care of them like my own :) I currently do photography for income, so I’m pretty much available whenever I do like to keep weekends open as much as possible, but during the day and maybe a few times during the week evenings, I am available!! I make sure to keep an eye out on your dog 24/7 to make sure they don’t get into something they’re not supposed to and to make sure that they are happy and active or taking a nap!
About: I've taken care of my friends animals when there out of town, and I am the random person who will walk up to someone and ask if I can pet there dog or cat, I love animals I have 4 cats of my own and a spotted dog I work PRN so I have plenty of availability throughout the week, and am very flexible when it comes to scheduling and working around other people's schedules and needs Even with my own friends cats I build trust with them and show them I'm a friend and they always react well towards me, with dogs I do the same thing they need to trust you so there in a comfortable environment
About: I’m a really friendly person and my husband and I treat dogs like family. I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 kids so I’m available 7 days a week; the only time I leave the house is to go food shopping so the dogs are rarely left alone. I do request that the dogs are friendly towards kids! I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around and play! We also have 3 goats with their own house and fenced in area. Whether you allow your dogs on your furniture is a preference I’d love to learn, we allow them on our furniture as long as it’s something that they already do at home. I know most dogs are on a potty schedule so in order to maintain that I’d want to know how frequently they’re let out. Above all else they’d be spoiled with love and treated like family! Pups that only receive dog walking would be shown the same kind of love as all the other pups despite the small amount of time! I have two children ages 6 & 3 that I have at home with me and I homeschool them. This is my only source of income, so I’m always available to tend to animals that are entrusted to me! Your furry friends would fed according to their normal feeding schedule. We allow our dogs on the couch and our bed, so if that’s something you allow as well (or don’t allow) let me know so we don’t deviate from what you want for them! If they need to be crated at night let me know.
About: Unless you are a pet parent, no one understands what it is like for you to open your eyes in the morning only to find another pair of eyes staring at you, and this huge tongue licking you in the face. Whether you have a cat, dog, bird, etc.., you only want the best for your pet as they are more than just pets, they are family. As pet parents know, each one has his/her own personality and charm. You must have empathy and a sense of humor to be around animals. I have been around animals my entire life (over 40 years). I grew up hanging around a grooming solon knowing how to treat animals. I was taught how to train, groom, and photograph dogs. Our pets can make you laugh when your sad, and wait for you to come home at night, and love you unconditionally. My past experiences include: • Working at PetSmart Hotel • Being PetSmart certified • Knowing dog first aid • Being a dog trainer • Being a dog photographer • A dog whisperer • Working with PAWS of Rutherford County and ASPCA • A portion of candles that I made do go to PAWS of Rutherford County. • Being able to give dogs medication. I will treat your fuzzy children like my own. If you want someone who will love your dog(s) or cats and be a great substitute pet parent, then look no further than me. Have a wonderful day with your fuzzy kids! I own my own business. I can fit pet care into my schedule. I am sure I can work with the client to come into an agreement. I would like to know is there a schedule the client has for their pet, especially for the bathroom. Some pets need to go out every so often. Are there any dangers or allergies the pets has, etc. These are the types of information I will be asking the pet parent to make sure their pet is safe.

I am so bored during the day and I would love to watch/ walk your dog I have a big yard, however it's not fenced in. I could take your dog out on a leash so they are safe from other animals and the road.
About: I am a compassionate and detailed sitter who has a passion for pet care! I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and kitties that are fearful/shy.

I am very flexible with my schedule so I am available for daily walks, potty breaks, litterbox changes and overnight/vacation care. I can typically make last minute visits when needed! I listen to each client's needs to determine a plan of action. I go above and beyond to make sure your home is secure and clean after I leave. I will happily bring in mail, papers, and packages if you are away, as well as watering plants on those hot summer days.

“Jharasen was kind, communicative, and treated my dog well! He came home happy and well exercised. There were other dogs around for him to play with, which I think helped keep his separation anxiety well managed.”
About: I’m a really friendly person and my husband and I treat dogs like family. I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. I’m a stay at home mom of 2 kids so I’m available 7 days a week; the only time I leave the house is to go food shopping so the dogs are rarely left alone. I do request that the dogs are friendly towards kids! I have a huge fenced in yard for dogs to run around and play! We also have 3 goats with their own house and fenced in area. Whether you allow your dogs on your furniture is a preference I’d love to learn, we allow them on our furniture as long as it’s something that they already do at home. I know most dogs are on a potty schedule so in order to maintain that I’d want to know how frequently they’re let out. Above all else they’d be spoiled with love and treated like family! Pups that only receive dog walking would be shown the same kind of love as all the other pups despite the small amount of time! I have two children ages 6 & 3 that I have at home with me and I homeschool them. This is my only source of income, so I’m always available to tend to animals that are entrusted to me! Your furry friends would fed according to their normal feeding schedule. We allow our dogs on the couch and our bed, so if that’s something you allow as well (or don’t allow) let me know so we don’t deviate from what you want for them! If they need to be crated at night let me know.
“Once again Lauren and Jonathan did an amazing job taking care of Chuck Norris the doodle. We always know that he is in great hands and is having a great time when he’s with them. Thanks for hanging out with Chuck Norris”
“Where do I begin? Kashawna was outstanding with my babies. I think she spoiled them even more(if possible)😂 she took them on walks mixed their food kelp them on their feeding schedule and loved on them. I also received plenty pics which made it easy for me to relax and enjoy my vacation. Will definitely use her again!”
“I left my German Shepherd Beagle Harbour and unfixed Pitbull Ace with Natalie for 4 days and 3 nights. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had. Upon drop off, she met me right at my vehicle and helped get the boys, their crates, and bags inside. Upon pick up, she did the exact same. Also, to my surprise, both the boys had been bathed and wearing the cutest bandannas. She sent lots of photos and video updates throughout their stay and they always look like they were having a blast. She even let them cuddle in bed with her at night. Definitely going to book with Natalie over and over again!!!”
“Excellent, empathetic care for our two dogs, both of whom can be on the shy side. We are a repeat client and plan to continue requesting care from Angela and her family.”
“Mason and Christian were very accommodating, even when we needed to come back one day late. Hermione seemed to thrive in their care. We will use them again!”

“Tara was absolutely amazing! She was extremely accommodating and took wonderful care of our 2 cocker spaniels. Plus, they love her as well! We are definitely repeat customers now! I highly recommend her. Thank you so much, Tara!”
“Annie was the best with our 3 dogs. Before book her i look a lot of profiles and she had the best comments so even when she was one hour far from me i book her and was the best decision. She sent me photos of my dogs frequently and replying all my messages. I'm really picky about my dogs but she was amazing with them, they were happy to be in her house”
