Personalized care for your dog or cat - Belhaven

“James had handled day cares for our Lindy several times, and we felt completely comfortable choosing him to look after her for five nights while we went on vacation. He sent regular pictures to us, answered all questions promptly, and kept us informed. When we picked her up, she was calm, happy to see us, and as always, responsive to James. She had bonded with him immediately during her day cares, and when we had dropped her off for the long visit, she was happy to see him and went willingly with him as we departed. It was a blessing to us to know she was loved and well cared-for while we were away, and James met all our expectations.”

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and loving dog owner who truly enjoys caring for animals. I have four dogs of my own and live on 7 acres in Chocowinity, giving dogs plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors, play, and get exercise. I offer a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for pets through boarding, daycare, and pet sitting. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care your pet may need. I love taking dogs outside, going for walks, playing, and spending quality time with them. I also enjoy taking dogs to the park when appropriate so they can get extra exercise and stimulation. Whether your pup needs a place to stay while you’re away, some daytime company and playtime, or someone dependable to care for them in your home, I’ll treat them like one of my own. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me. I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are in good hands, and I’ll do my best to make their stay a happy one

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing reliable, attentive care. I focus on building trust with both pets and owners by following routines closely, ensuring safety, and giving each pet individualized attention so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I don’t work outside the home and complete my college classes online. This gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to focus on walks, feedings, playtime, and individualized care, while being attentive to each pet’s needs throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I enter. I follow each pet’s routine closely, respect house rules, and ensure doors, leashes, and gates are secure at all times. I have over four years of experience caring for cats, including my own 7-month-old kitten who was recently spayed, which has strengthened my attention to detail and patience. For walks, I focus on safe routes and attentive handling, and for overnight stays, I keep pets comfortable, maintain cleanliness, and provide consistent updates so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for.
