“Juli comes highly recommended, and we were pleased with our dog Lindy's first experience with her. Juli is knowledgeable and patient, which was so helpful because Lindy is shy until she feels comfortable with new people. We got some tips from Juli on how to help with this, which we appreciated. Thanks!”

“Rob was great with our girls. This was an acclimation visit to familiarize. This family is very understanding of special needs & requests. Our pups were well taken care of. We believe we have found our care team.”

“This is our second time using Flora. Lots of pictures and videos. The dogs were so loved while they were there! She is a great communicator and was flexible with a change in plans. We are hoping we get to use her one more time while we are in the area!”

“Morgan took great care of my dog! She kept me up to date at all times and sent me many pictures as evidence that my dog was having a lot of fun! Whenever I need someone to care for my dog, Morgan will be the first on the list!”

“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”

“Heather was amazing with Milo! She provided regular updates with photos, and made sure he was as comfortable as possible. She was very responsive leading up to dropping him off, and was kind throughout the entire process. I truly appreciate Heather watching my pup and would recommend her to any dog parent! ☺️”

“I will definitely be booking with James again. This was our furbaby first time away from us and she did absolute amazing wit James. Thank you for taking care of her, the updates & care meant everything to us & we appreciate you.”

“Madison took such great care of Indy. They went to the park and took several rides in the car!! Madison sent plenty of pictures and updates throughout the week. Indy had such a fun time with Madison and her pup Benji!!”

“Lisa did an AMAZING job with my 5month old boxer puppy Avery. She sent me photos while I was away, and let me know how Avery was doing. Avery adjusted very well with Lisa. We will DEFINITELY use her again!!!”


“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: What sets me apart in cat care is my veterinary background combined with a lifetime of hands-on animal experience, including growing up on a farm caring for livestock. I understand that cats require a different approach — patience, observation, and respect for their boundaries. I’m experienced in administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable), monitoring subtle changes in behavior or appetite, and supporting senior cats with mobility or chronic conditions. I’m also comfortable caring for kittens who need structured supervision and enrichment during critical developmental stages. From litter box monitoring and enrichment play to recognizing early signs of illness, I provide attentive, low-stress care tailored to each cat’s unique personality and needs.
“If I could give more stars I would. Jenna was great. This was my first time ever using Rover. She went above and beyond visiting our 3 cats, two of which are a bit needy emotionally. She kept us well informed about what she & they were doing. She sent us tons of pictures and even a video. She even got our older cat to play (amazing). Don’t be afraid to use Jenna as your pets caregiver. She will care for them as if they were her own.”


About: I’m a lifelong cat lover with experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. I understand cats thrive on routine and feel most comfortable in their own environment. I provide an attentive care including feeding, freshwater, litter, box cleaning, playtime, and lots of cuddles (on their own terms!). I’m patient, respectful of shy kitties, and always take the time to build trust. Whether your cat is social and playful or quiet and independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe happy and we cared for while you’re away.
“Caitlyn has been absolutely WONDERFUL when she’s watched my cats! I know they are well taken care of and they love her! I trust her with my boys and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter :)”


“Dia did such a great job. I am a worry wart of a cat mom and she was so sweet, great at communicating, and amazing with animals. My cats hate everyone and they came out for her right away. She checked on my babies in between cooking a thanksgiving turkey and seeing her own family, so if that’s not an animal lover idk what is!”

“Juli was very helpful and communicative. She was able to watch Duke for me last minute, and we really appreciated it. Her home is in a very nice neighborhood and she has a huge fully fenced back yard.”

About: Hi, I'm dependable, stay-at-home dog lover who provides a safe, fun, and loving environment for you're pup while you're away. I've had dogs my whole life, including two yellow labs who lived long, happy lives (15 and 12 years old.) I currently have a friendly 1-year old yellow lab who love's new friends to play with! I have another red fox lab coming soon- June 2026! Because I'm home full-time, your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day- no long periods alone. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where the dogs can run and play safely. Our days are filled with fun activities like pool time, agility play, fetch, and lots of love and interaction. Your pup will be treated like family in our clean, non-smoking home, with plenty of space to relax and feel comfortable. I'm happy to follow your dog's routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions to make sure they feel right at home. If you're looking for a safe, fun, and attentive place for your pup to stay, I'd love to care of them! ❤️ I can only take 3 dogs per day for daycare and for boarding. I can only take dogs that are up to date on vaccines as I am having a new 8 week old puppy joining our family in June 2026. I will ask that you please provide me with a copy of vaccines. I only accept dogs that are spayed/ neutered Pups that are 8 months old or younger are accepted. Please note; Per my homeowners insurance, I cannot accept the following: Pitbul/ Pitbul mix Rottweiler Doberman German Sheppards Chow Chow I would love for your dog to become of our pack! As much as I love dogs, people are asking if their dogs can sleep in my room and on my bed. For the safety of all dogs that are boarding, I require that they are in a crate or in a kennel at night.
“Madison was extremely helpful with my Maverick. Not only did she accommodate pick up and drop off times, but she was also able to sense Maverick was overwhelmed on the first day, and took the time to get to know him. By the second day, he was much more relaxed with her and Benji, so I know he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend and book again. Thanks, Madison!”

About: I currently foster two senior hospice pups with a rescue and have always had a passion for caring for pets of all ages and breeds — from birds and fish to pigs and hamsters. I truly believe pets are an important part of any family, and my love for them is not just a job, but a genuine passion. With 30 years of service at the North Carolina Department of Public Safety, caring for others has always been my calling. That dedication extends to animals, too. Now retired, I’m able to devote my full time and attention to providing exceptional care for your pets. II provide personalized care based on each pet’s preferences, whether that means walks, playtime with toys, gentle affection, or quiet companionship. I make sure your pet stays engaged, comfortable, and happy throughout the day. My home is clean and pet-safe, free of harmful plants or chemicals, and equipped with cameras for added security. I always follow each owner’s rules and routines, keeping your pet’s safety and well-being my top priority.
About: Hi neighbors! 🐾 I’m looking to help more families in our community by providing high-quality pet sitting. I’ve spent the last 30 years surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. Whether you have a timid tabby, a playful puppy, or a senior who needs a little extra patience and medicine, I have the hands-on experience to handle it all. I know how hard it is to leave your fur-babies, so I prioritize reliable communication and genuine affection. Your pets won’t just be supervised, they’ll be loved! Because I work from home full-time, your pet becomes my 'office mate' for the day. They won't be waiting by the door for hours or stuck in a crate; instead, they’ll enjoy constant companionship, mid-day belly rubs, and a watchful eye. Whether they prefer to nap at my feet while I’m on a call or need a quick play break in the yard, I’m here to provide the undivided attention and 'full-time love' they deserve. Leaving your pet is never easy, which is why I treat your trust as a sacred bond. With 30+ years of hands-on experience, I have developed a "sixth sense" for animal behavior and well-being. I don't just watch your pets; I actively monitor their health, happiness, and safety.
About: I absolutely adore spending time and playing with dogs, and always make sure they are comfortable and their needs are being met. I volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, and have had many clients that I regularly dog walk/sit for. I am moving to NC in April and am excited to meet the new puppies there! I have open availability all day until the end of April. After that, I’m hoping to have a part time job and I’ll update my availability. I always follow the instructions given by the pet owner, and make sure that the pet is safe and happy wherever we are and whatever we are doing.
“Jessica and her family were simply amazing. Such engaging, pleasant, happy people to interact with. Our dogs instantly connected with them when they arrived and they were snuggling with them on the grass when we returned to pick them up. Along the way they had fun, based on the pictures they sent us, hanging out with them and their two dogs. It was exactly what our dogs needed - to be stimulated with new experiences, make new friends, and burn off lots of energy - while their human parents had a day away. It’s very apparent Jessica knows her stuff when it comes to animals. Further, we took great comfort in them having a fully fenced yard so that we knew our dogs wouldn’t accidentally get out. We would not hesitate to use Jessica again or refer her to others.”

About: I am from Colombia and there I had the opportunity to work with him, in a family veterinarian where I learned a lot. Here in the United States I have been taking care of dogs and cats at home several times. It is important, since animals are part of my life and always will be, I also dream of one day having the money to be able to give a good life to several animals that currently live in a shelter. I keep them company, I sing to them, I play with them, I walk them, when they sleep in my house I always make them comfortable and I am aware of all their behavior, especially because I know they miss their owners.
About: I have always had a pet growing up. I used to have cats when I was little and then eventually turned to dogs. Currently back at home I have three dogs that I love so so so much. Here in Greenville I share custody of a dog, Saint, with my boyfriend. I love to walk so that is no problem for me when it comes to walking dogs. I also worked as an assistant for almost two years where one of my main priorities was taking care of her pitty :) I currently work part time so my availability is pretty open! I spend a lot of my time outside on walks, so it only makes sense that I open the door to including pets on my walk. I do stay in an apartment so I don't have yard space for pets, but I am willing to drive to dog parks or walking trails. I also don't mind going to other peoples home to care for their animals.
About: Hello! My name is Neffy and I am 27 years old. I’ve been a vet tech/receptionist since 2021 and previously have experience working with animals in the humane society in Greenville.

I have loved animals of every sort my whole life and would love to meet and care for your baby as much as I care for mine! I would love it if you gave me the opportunity to care for your pet to brighten their day as well as yours! I am currently very flexible and have more time to provide enrichment and safe outdoor activities. This means I can be available during the day when your baby needs me most! I like to make sure the fur babies are comfortable wherever they may be. I am quick to locate any hazards that could cause injury and am mindful of what may upset or give them a scare.

About: Hi, I'm Taz! I'm 25 years old and have over 6 years of experience caring for and watching dogs. I provide dependable, loving care for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. My experience as an animal rescue volunteer and foster caregiver has taught me how to work with shy, anxious, and special-needs pets, helping them feel safe and comfortable while their families are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I strive to provide personalized care that keeps them happy, healthy, and stress free. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide consistent attention, feeding, playtime, litter box maintenance, and companionship for the cats in my care. Being home also means I can closely monitor pets, stick to their regular routines, and give them the extra attention they may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident their cats are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home or mine, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of affection based on each cat's personality and comfort level. I also monitor their behavior and well-being, provide basic medications if needed, and keep pet parents updated with photos and messages during each visit.

“I had Maliyah and Gabriel take care of my dog for four days (three walks a day), and honestly, they were just really solid people. They were always on time, kept everything consistent, and you could tell they weren’t just rushing through it. My dog can be a little particular with new people, but she clicked with them right away, which says a lot. Every time they came by, she seemed genuinely excited to see them. They made sure she was fed on time, took her on actual walks (not just quick bathroom breaks), and even stuck around a little longer to spend time with her. That part meant a lot to me, it didn’t feel like they were just checking a box. Overall, it just felt easy and stress-free knowing she was in good hands. I’d 100% reach out to Maliyah and Gabriel again.”

About: I have two fur babies who are my whole world. I’ve dealt with extensive health issues with my girls that have equipped me to handle any range of crisis with care and compassion. I love animals with my whole heart. Trusting me with your babies means they will be loved and taken care of until they get to reunite with you! I’m currently a student so I have a lot of time to spend with your furry friends! My animals are my world and I know that if you’re reaching out to me, yours are your world also! This means they will receive the same attention and prioritization that my own girls get in daily life. I want to work with you to determine how to take care of your babies. Each dog is unique so I take a specialized approach to make sure that yours gets the attention they deserve! I have a reactive dog at home, as well as experience with a wide range of medical issues, so I’m equipped for special circumstances with dogs.
About: There’s always at least 2 dogs in my house. I’ve taken care of multiple puppies and love the outdoors! I can’t wait to meet your dog! I’m currently taking time off from work to spend time with family. I have flexible hours and I’m very punctual. I have dogs of my own so I will have to keep their schedules in mind. I have a small fenced in areas and a large back yard where I walk my own three dogs. I have multiple leashes and treats if needed.
About: I have been taking care of animals for about 14 years. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles and so much more. I have experience with elderly dogs. I’ve had to give oral medication to my senior dog on a daily basis and I have knowledge of giving cats oral medication as well. I know how to potty train puppies if needed as well. I am very reliable, as well as very caring. I try to make your animal feel comfortable in a situation they might not understand. If needed I can bathe your animal. I currently work from home so if I’m boarding an animal I am available to walk them ever 1-2 hours for a small period of time before I have to go to get back to work. I would be home all day so I can give them so much affection and ensure they are feeling comfortable during their entire stay. I’m usually off at around 7 pm so after that I am available to go on long walks, play much more, take them to the park if it’s allowed and much much more! If I’m not boarding and it’s just a walk or a drop in or whichever service you need I am more than happy to put all my energy into this puppy!! I have too much energy from staying at home all day and plus, what better way to be more active than with animals!! When I’m caring for any pets I am very vigilant. Whether that be at my place or yours. I like to keep things clean so my house will be very organized and anything that they shouldn’t get into will be put away in a safe place. If your baby is staying with me I do have a cat. But she has grown up with dogs and I swear is more of a dog herself than she is a cat. If I’m at your home I am very respectful towards your home and your items. If anything comes up I will alert you immediately. You will find that I communicate very well and will send you tons of cute pictures of your baby when she is under my care

About: I absolutely adore my furry babies! I have saved over 10 strays and got them loving and caring homes! I have lived with many as well! All breeds of dogs and cats! I am currently in college online asynchronous! I also am part time RBT! I will update my schedule according to my part time position! I can’t wait to meet your furry babies!

I can also play with them as well.
About: I have been bringing home and taking in animals ever since 2010 when I was in 5th grade. I have always put a lot of time, patience, love, sweat and money into my own animals. I try to give my babies the best quality of life that I can provide and I intend to do the same while yours are in my care! I have a tremendous amount of love & respect for all animals. I also have a lot of experience with multiple different breeds because I've had numerous dogs, a cat & a leopard gecko. Some duties I can help assist with include potty training, walking, teaching training commands & any senior/special needs care. If needed I can administer oral liquid medications, as well as pills and I can change diapers too. I am a stay at home dog mommy and I run a small business as well.

About: Animals truly are a man’s best friend. They offer a kind of companionship and loyalty that’s hard to match—even with people. That bond between pet and owner is what motivates me to provide the best possible care for your furry loved one. I’m 21 years old and have had the joy of owning a golden retriever, a black lab, and three cats. As a seasoned pet sitter, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds—including mixed breeds (husky, lab, Akita), Belgian Malinois, pit bulls, and more—ranging from playful puppies to slobbery seniors. I’m always excited to meet new breeds and personalities! I know leaving your pet behind is never easy, so my goal is to give every owner total peace of mind. You can feel confident that your pet will be safe, loved, and treated like family while you’re away. I am a nursing student at ECU looking to spend some of my free time hanging with your pets!!

“Juli comes highly recommended, and we were pleased with our dog Lindy's first experience with her.

Thanks!”

“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”
