“Erin was a great sitter! She provided lots of updates and my cattle dog had lots of fun running around with her golden retriever in their huge fenced yard. Would definitely use Erin again in the future!”
“Demetri had a great stay with Taylor & his family. It was his first visit and highly successful. I would recommend Taylor for your dog. He provides a safe, positive environment. We'll book with him again.”
“Lauren took great care of our 11-year-old lab/hound mix. Her dog and my dog got along well. Lauren sent updates once a day which was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend. We will reach out again when we are in Wilmington area.”
“This is my third time having Jerry watch my 2 girls! He is my go-to when I am out of town because he is responsible, communicative, and most importantly treats my girls like his own. They always come back happy and tired!”
“Brinkley had an amazing time with Angela, never a dull moment always on the move. There were plenty of neighborhood walks, park visits, and even a fun beach trip. He loved hanging out with “Bear,” his new pup buddy, and the two played endlessly together. Angela kept us relaxed with daily updates, fun photos, and thoughtful touches that made Brinkley’s stay both exciting and restful. Thanks to Angela’s warm home, positive energy, and welcoming family, Brinkley missed them all last night, making our choice for his next boarding stay an easy one.”
“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”
“Kim and her family are always so thoughtful and caring to our furbabies. She was provides updates and photos. We never worry while away because we know they are being taken care of. We will use Kim again. Thank you Kim.”
“Helena gave so much love to our dog and she has a comfortable and trustworthy environment. I felt I did not need to worry while on vacation. She took detailed notes since our pet has a special diet, and she seemed to enjoy cuddling and exercising our pet.”
“Meagan and her family were wonderful with my girl, Sookie! Sookie needs to be around confident dogs and Maegan's two were exactly that. From the first moment we met, I knew that "we had a match" for my dog. All the pictures and updates from Maegan were reassuring and it was clear to see that things were going very well. She clearly loves all dogs and is very attentive and in tune with their moods and actions. Her home and fenced yard were secure, safe, comfortable and very welcoming. My one concern going into this was that Maegan has small children and my dog hasn't been around many. But I expressed my unnecessary concern and learned that her kids are as professional, sensitive and loving of dogs as their parents. Five stars doesn't seem like enough!”
“Amy was wonderful! She sent me updates everyday. My pup is high energy and can be a handful but Amy was able to make her feel like part of the family. In fact my pup almost didn't want to leave. We will definitely use her again!”
“My dog loved staying with Hunter!! She provided updates, photos, and videos which was so nice while I was away from my pup. I really feel like she went the extra mile and we will definitely be booking again! Thanks Hunter!! ❤️”

“My dog stayed with Sue-Ling, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog. Kind, patient, and really attentive to her needs. It was clear from the start that Sue-Ling truly loves animals and treats them like her own. There was a small health issue while I was away, but Sue-Ling handled everything calmly and responsibly. She kept me updated right away and made sure my dog was comfortable and safe. I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Sue-Ling gave to my dog, and I would absolutely trust her to look after her again anytime. She’s amazing!”

“We appreciated Desi taking our babies last minute and taking such good care of them. I was so happy that Desi didn’t crate them as they have never been crated. They had a warm, gorgeous room where they stayed and I loved the pics and video that I got. This is only the second time I have left them with a stranger so the pics and video really helped put my anxious mind at ease. Thanks Desi! We will see you again when we come back to ski!”

About: Hello! I have grown up with more pets than people in my household, and that has served me well. I am capable of handling multiple dogs on walks (there’s nothing more comical than juggling multiple leashes) and caring for both cats and dogs. I was an assistant in therapy dog training and puppy training for four years (Teamworks in Raleigh), and this has provided me with cognitive and behavioral insight into dogs. I also have taken care of dogs around my neighborhood growing up. My philosophy with pets is that they make the owner feel better and vice versa. I promise to take care of your pets as I would my own: with love, respect, and as much exercise as they deserve. I look forward to working with you. I work full time remotely, so have flexibility to take care of your pet’s needs. My weekend availability varies but my calendar will be up to date. I will take care of your pet in your home, where they will be most comfortable. I am also available for drop-ins, or walks while you are at work, or other non-stay related activities.

“Patricia did all visits in a timely manner, along with pictures. The cats looked like they were happy to see her & available for pictures. I appreciated the details she left me on each visit. All was good when we got back.”
“Nolan was on time and communicative throughout the whole process including scheduling, confirming how to access the house and the actual drop-in. I was notified when he arrived, he sent multiple pictures and I was notified when he was leaving. I asked Nolan to give Alfie some treats when he left to keep him calm, and all went well and I got to enjoy my day away without having to worry about Alfie at all.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was about 5 or 6 ! To neighborhood cats to friend cats . I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and care I give each cat as an individual. I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and what makes them comfortable, since cats can be very particular about their environment and people. I’m patient with shy cats, playful with energetic ones, and always make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their cat is being well cared for. My goal is to make every cat feel like they’re still in their normal routine and getting the same love and attention they would from their owner

“2 day daycare stay: Katie was ABOVE and beyond not only caring for my crazy Millie girl (boxer/pitt) but also as a person. She was such a joy to talk to at drop off and pickup, and kept me up to-do-date with pictures and videos during Millie’s stay. I would hands down recommend her to anyone as well as use her again. If only she lived closer to Charlotte, all three of my dogs would be with her everyday! THANK YOU, Katie!!!”
“Murphy came home exhausted after a full day of playing in the snowy backyard with Andrea’s dogs and the others she was watching for the day. He was a stinky, sleepy, happy pup!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12, starting with dog sitting and walking in my neighborhood, along with taking care of my own dogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. What sets me apart is how attentive, patient, and reliable I am. I treat every dog like my own.

About: I worked and lived at a dog sanctuary in Guatemala for two months (May & June 2025). I cared for and walked 6+ dogs a day, mainly two at a time. I really grew to love them. There were 11 total dogs. five were 1-years-old or younger and all were 3-years-old or younger, so I have experience with puppies. I lived with and cared for a 60-lb pit bull for 6 weeks (2x daily walks). She took adequate strength to control on the leash. After caring for her, I feel confident with this type of pet after getting to know them a little. I have grown up with & cared for cats all my life. I am currently working a part time remote job and studying for fitness & wellness related certifications and can be very flexible with my time. Cleaning up after pets and making sure pets have clean & fresh food and water is a must. Getting to know their personality and/or walking style is important, so I can know how to best play, walk, and support them during our time together.

I have a small fenced in yard. I live near the beach for beach walks and near the state park for some nice shaded walks. There is also a dog park near by. I try to get as much information about the pet as possible and how it is normally cared for to keep things as close to normal as possible for the pet.
About: PLEASE READ OUR PROFILE FIRST BEFORE MESSAGING WITH QUESTIONS AS THIS WILL MOST LIKELY ANSWER YOUR MOST COMMON QUESTIONS AND HELP YOU FIGURE OUT IF THIS WILL BE A GOOD FIT FOR YOUR PET! ** My name is Brayden! I am married to my beautiful wife, Samantha and we have 4 dogs of our own (a Great Dane and 3 labs) and live with our two youngest children (13 and 17). We have grown up with dogs all of our lives and have the BIGGEST soft spot for animals of any kind. We enjoy being around animals because they make us laugh, smile, and generally just feel good. I have been in professional pet sitting for 20 years, 8 of which have been on Rover/private LLC. While I no longer offer boarding and daycare, I would LOVE to come and spoil your fur babies ant your place. In addition to dog walking as a business, we are involved in real estate and mental health counseling. In our free time we love being on the beach, jeep riding, riding our golf cart around, fishing, out on our boat, kayaking, or just relaxing and taking in the beautiful sunsets. We are highly experienced with over 20 years of caring for pets. I have experience with all kinds of pets from Great Danes and cats, to rabbits, birds, and snakes. I have extensive experience with a wide variety of animals. Pet Care has been my primary source of income for the past 8 years. As of writing this I am currently in Grad School getting my MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling as well as building my real estate career. Anyone that knows me will tell you that animals are a huge part of my life. I love spending time with them and being around them. It is very rewarding for me. I have experience with all kinds of animals and I have an immense amount of patience for puppies.

“Thelma had a great time running around the yard! Robert send along cute photos and was flexible when our plans had to change last minute. Highly recommend!”
“Kate was super friendly and took great care of my pup. He came home happy, tired and not stressed at all. She sent me pics and updates daily. She really put my mind at ease. I would use her again 100%”
“Erin was a great sitter! She provided lots of updates and my cattle dog had lots of fun running around with her golden retriever in their huge fenced yard. Would definitely use Erin again in the future!”
“Lauren took great care of our 11-year-old lab/hound mix. Her dog and my dog got along well. Lauren sent updates once a day which was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend. We will reach out again when we are in Wilmington area.”
“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”
“Kim and her family are always so thoughtful and caring to our furbabies. She was provides updates and photos. We never worry while away because we know they are being taken care of. We will use Kim again. Thank you Kim.”
“Meagan and her family were wonderful with my girl, Sookie! Sookie needs to be around confident dogs and Maegan's two were exactly that. From the first moment we met, I knew that "we had a match" for my dog. All the pictures and updates from Maegan were reassuring and it was clear to see that things were going very well. She clearly loves all dogs and is very attentive and in tune with their moods and actions. Her home and fenced yard were secure, safe, comfortable and very welcoming. My one concern going into this was that Maegan has small children and my dog hasn't been around many. But I expressed my unnecessary concern and learned that her kids are as professional, sensitive and loving of dogs as their parents. Five stars doesn't seem like enough!”
“Amy was wonderful! She sent me updates everyday. My pup is high energy and can be a handful but Amy was able to make her feel like part of the family. In fact my pup almost didn't want to leave. We will definitely use her again!”
“My dog loved staying with Hunter!! She provided updates, photos, and videos which was so nice while I was away from my pup. I really feel like she went the extra mile and we will definitely be booking again! Thanks Hunter!! ❤️”
About: Having been around and owned different animals all my life, I have years of experience with dog routines, feeding schedules, training habits and cuddles. I enjoy playing fetch and walking my pup daily and would love to include yours! I'm a stay at home mom so I'm around all the time for all your pets needs. I am available 7 days a week. I have a fenced in yard with a very friendly Lab and daughter that will keep your pup company. Going for walks or runs in the mornings with plenty of fetch in the backyard is a good day here.
“Kimberly and her family took amazing care of my little old pup. Gave him love and snuggles sent updated photos to us the whole time we were away. What an incredible experience. We will absolutely be using Kimberly as our sitter again!”
“Hilary took such great care of our girl! Sadie has a lot of quirks and takes time to warm up and Hilary was patient and understanding. I had a lot of peace of mind while we were away on our trip knowing she was well taken care of!”
“We appreciated Desi taking our babies last minute and taking such good care of them. I was so happy that Desi didn’t crate them as they have never been crated. They had a warm, gorgeous room where they stayed and I loved the pics and video that I got. This is only the second time I have left them with a stranger so the pics and video really helped put my anxious mind at ease. Thanks Desi! We will see you again when we come back to ski!”
