“Samuel and Erica were great! I got lots of pictures and feedback. Samuel and Erica have Lana well trained as others have stated, and it’s evident. Moose settled in with them pretty quickly. Moose is small and didn’t want to play. They both learned to peacefully co-exist just as Samuel and Erica have experienced with other small pups. I highly recommend them!”
“Carola is so caring and knowledgeable about all things dog. My dog had a great time and came home relaxed and healthy. The environment is perfect for relaxing inside and playing outside. She loved her bonus siblings and walks. Thank you so much!”
“Sabrina is an incredible dog sitter! She gave my pups so much love and attention and made sure they got plenty of exercise. She even bought them toys, bones, and helped train them. She has a nice fence in yard with an entire dog playground! She also kept me updated and sent lots of pictures and videos. She’s incredibly kind as well.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I’ve done everything from fostering to raising litters of puppies and kittens. I’m an active person so there is no shortage of playtime. I’m very dedicated to providing the love and support pets need! Caring for pets is always a priority of mine as I currently own a dog and cat myself. I work part time so my schedule is very flexible. I have a spare bedroom in my house with a large mattress for pets to rest on. There is space for a crate if needed. My backyard is very spacious. My area is fairly quiet as I live outside the city. I also have a very friendly dog and cat so your pets can have new friends (can be separated if needed).
“Amy and Jason are amazing!! Very welcoming!! Prepared; Mochi is part of their family when there, they treat her as one of their own! Could not have asked for more…Mochi returns home very calm and gets back into real life at home quickly. Thank you! If you are hesitant; don’t be!!”

“Heather was an absolute delight! She told me everything she needed, and told me how she planned to take care of Sutton! I am a bit of an over thinker so that was so sweet to me. Sutton was happy the whole time! She was cared for like she was one of Heathers dogs! She followed Suttons schedule perfectly! I was able to relax and know that Sutton was in good hands while I was on my trip! I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have cared for four dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. I currently have an 8-year-old mutt named Tucker who is incredibly sweet. Tucker previously went through heartworm treatment, so I have experience following medication schedules and giving medication as directed. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, basic grooming, and giving pets plenty of attention. I’ve also owned and cared for parrots, iguanas, lizards, hamsters, and many other animals. I genuinely love animals and will treat every pet like one of my own. I’m currently in college and only have about three hours of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout most of the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and spending quality time with your pets. My apartment is very pet-friendly and comfortable, with plenty of places for dogs to relax. I even have a couch specifically for dogs, along with a dog bed and other cozy spots throughout the apartment. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions you provide.
“This was our first time using Rover and really leaving our dog with someone we didn’t know so we wanted to be sure she would be safe and loved. Booking with Lori was the best decision we could have made! Her love for animals and experience with special needs dogs was evident from the moment we began speaking and the care our dog received from her is by far better than other past trusted sources we have used. We were nervous as I’m sure most people are when leaving their fur babies behind, but on the first evening we knew she was in great hands and we could finally relax. Our dog has one eye and is losing sight in the other and has some allergies, and Lori cared for her perfectly! She kept us updated with photos, messages, and videos and took her on plenty of walks and gave her all the love. Plus our dog really enjoyed being around hers as well! This experience was beyond our expectations and if we need to leave our dog in the future, Lori will be the first person we check with! Thank you for taking such great care of Osha and for making our first vacation in over 3 years the most peaceful experience we’ve ever had!”

About: I have 2 dogs of my own (a mini schnauzer and a cattle dog). I always watch my families pets when they go out of town and they always know they’re in amazing care and are spoiled to the max when gone. They rely on bathing, feeding, walking or letting them out to run in their back yard, clean up accidents, and play with them. I do work full time unless my schedule changes so if it changes and I can always update anyone on that and go earlier if possible. During the week I am available to walk/check in between 7am to 8am before work typically unless my schedule changes and after work would be after 5:30pm unless my schedule changes and I get off earlier and weekends I am completely flexible! I can play with the dogs in your home or your backyard if you have one. Feed and water them if they’re on a schedule. Ensure gates/doors are locked/closed to ensure safety.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I have been taking care of animals since I was 15 years old. I stared working at a vets office and haven’t looked back. Pet care can look like many different things in my week such as, a single feeding, a walk, a check in or the full on in home service with all the feedings and all the walks. While, I would love to have every dog and cat over to my house I can’t realistically do that b/c I own a cat who does love other cats and she tolerates dogs, your dog or cat would have to be cat friendly. So most of my jobs are me coming to your home whether that is a drop in or a full time boarding situation while you’re on vacation.
About: Pet care is my full time job, so I have open availability! I am also a proud owner of a fully trained German Shepard. I’m open to doing dog walking/playtime, day sitting and overnights! I’m a full time student graduating in criminal justice with bachelor degree this coming summer 2027 who is responsible and dependable. All prices are negotiable depending on the needs. I’ve been a pet lover and caretaker since I was 10 years old. I’m 22 yrs old now and a proud owner of a 5 yr old German Shepherd who is fully trained. I believe all animals deserve one on one attention, care, & Love. I care for pets by making sure their basic needs are met first. Along with assuring each pet is happy and are enjoying their time with me. So much that I want them to be excited with just hearing my name. Whether in my home or at a clients home I follow any specific care instructions, maintain a clean space and provide consistent attentions, love and care to help pets feel safe and happy in my presence.
About: I’ve loved and cared for cats my entire life and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check in on, and comfort their cats while away.

“Carola was great - we were new at leaving our dog with anyone and our dog is old and not great at being left anywhere. By the second day, she was settling and Carola had her all figured out. We got to enjoy Nelson and not be limited by our dog in the heat or at a restaurant. Would recommend this service to anyone travelling with a pet who needs a special home away from home.”

“Bailey was dropped off early in the morning. This was his first experience with a daycare. Lori quickly took him for a walk after I said "I'll be back." He handled this new experience well. The visit was actually cut short due to a change in scheduling at the VA but when I picked him up, he was happy to see me, but didn't seem upset at all. This is a spoiled little boy and he was as comfortable as could be expected.! Lori was friendly and confident with how she handled things. I will definitely use here services again! Highly recommended.”

“We were in town for a day and wanted to explore a little bit so needed to find somewhere last minute to drop off our 2 dogs. Daniella responded immediately and was extremely welcoming and well prepared to take care of them. She has a fenced in area for them to run around and from the amazing pictures (and videos!) she sent us, they had a great time. If we’re ever back in town we won’t hesitate to leave them with her again.”
“This was my first experience and it went great. Thomas was very nice, communicative, and easy to work with. He kept me updated throughout the stay, and I felt confident that my dogs were in good hands. I would happily book with him again.”
“Amber did a great job taking care of our 10 lb poodle! She has a very friendly dog of her own and took special care introducing them to one another! Her home is clean, neat and cozy! We did doggy day care she walked Lucky 2 times in four hours! When we found out we’d be late on the pick up, she responded immediately and said no problem! We’ll definitely use her again should our need arise! Thank you Amber!”

About: Animals simply fill me with happiness. Ever since childhood, I have felt connected to the language of animals and have gotten such a deep and inexplicable joy from hanging out with them. I have worked professionally as an independent pet sitter in various parts of the country for the past seven years and have had some of the most rewarding experiences with the animals I've befriended. I offer overnight stays in my home where I live alone on three acres of pristine property in Weaverville, NC. At my house, your pets well being and happiness is considered my top priority while you are away.

About: As a military spouse I have helped care for our dogs and many of our neighbors dogs as well. From large to small, I love dogs of all kinds. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs, and our own dog loves the company of other dogs. I am a mom and am in nursing school, but pet care is the highlight of my day. My schedule is open during weekends during the school semester, and outside of that I'm fulltime at home. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat friendly home. I also have children at home, but they are 10 and up. I prefer dogs crated at night, but during the day they are allowed to roam inside or out in the fenced backyard and will be well taken care of with lots of friendly petting in my home.

About: I have always loved and cared for animals since I was young. I have taken care of my own and other people's fur babies. I love when my friend's pets get excited to see me because I equally share their joy! Dogs: I have always loved dogs and had at least 1 since childhood until a few years ago sadly. The automatic baby voice comes out when I see and talk to a dog. I have found myself spending more time with the dogs than the humans at gatherings sometimes and I appreciate those moments. I love all breeds and sizes! When seeing a new dog in passing, I ask each owner if it’s okay for me to “say hi”/pet their fur baby because all are different with different personalities and life experiences. I tell my kitties often that they will have a canine sibling soon! Cats: Currently a cat mom of 2, the stars in my pictures! I was ignorant of cats until I found my own. I listened to many behavioral podcasts along with my research to understand their uniqueness, and now I deeply appreciate and understand wholeheartedly the love earned from such individual little creatures. My kitties are my shadows, I never use the restroom alone. They have taught me so much and I love the unique personality that I find in each one of them. I know how important it is to respect their space (especially if they're more standoffish) and ensure they have all their resources, especially when their humans are away! Currently working my own flexible schedule so I can make any time work that your fur baby needs. Some pets are used to early mornings and some are used to late evenings. Whatever works for yours! My kitties eat raw, so I make their food daily and give them specific supplements and treats depending on their behavior and the litterbox situation. I'm in tune with my kitty's behaviors and meows knowing what they're requesting in that moment. When caring for other people's pets, I'm mindful of where we use the bathroom (if possible) and clean up appropriately. No details are too many, I'm very supportive of specific needs and how your fur baby may be familiar with their care.

About: I have over 45 yrs of experience in pet care. I was a dog trainer (now partially retired), owned my own pet sitting business for many years, fostered/adopted many rescues and I currently volunteer at and support several rescues. Animals are my heart and soul and I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I'm currently working part time and I will make myself available for your pet 24/7 whether it's late night potty trips outside or long walks during the day. I will care for your pets however you would like. I can do long walks, short walks, provide medications, specially prepared meals, play games, etc. I specialized in elderly dogs, hospice dogs and medical needs dogs when I fostered.
About: Animals just relax around me. I’ve worked with many pet owners who are apprehensive to leave their pets with anyone due to the pet’s nervous temperaments, and other various quirks, and every single time the animals have surprised their owners by completely settling in with me. I prioritize play, love, and connecting with each individual pet I watch however they specifically need. I’ve looked after animals of all breeds, ages, & temperaments- from anxious & fussy older pets to energetic young puppies. I have experience administering medications to sick animals, hand feeding injured puppies, walking several pets at once, and managing dogs & cats that are a bit wild. I’ve even cared for lizards, turtles, fish, plants (haha), hamsters, birds, & rabbits. Whatever their needs, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, & at home while they’re with me. I am a potter who works from my home studio, and I make my own schedule- so I can generally be flexible and accommodate your pets needs. I love having pets in my home, and breaking away from my studio to get some fresh air and puppy/kitty love too! If I’m working on a big project, it’s nice to have to flexibility to come and go from my studio when possible, or have your pet there with me- but I have worked out all kinds of house sit/drop in/boarding arrangements according to the needs of clients and their pets. Let’s talk! I live in a peaceful home with a large fenced in backyard, and nice quiet streets to walk with your pet as needed. I will follow whatever routines you generally stick to and prefer when working with your animals. Give me all the details of your needs and preferences, boundaries and particulars- no matter what type of sit- so I can be sure you and your pet(s) feel a sense of trust, ease, and predictability.
About: Pet care is my full time job, so I have open availability! I am also a proud owner of a fully trained German Shepard. I’m open to doing dog walking/playtime, day sitting and overnights! I’m a full time student graduating in criminal justice with bachelor degree this coming summer 2027 who is responsible and dependable. All prices are negotiable depending on the needs. I’ve been a pet lover and caretaker since I was 10 years old. I’m 22 yrs old now and a proud owner of a 5 yr old German Shepherd who is fully trained. I believe all animals deserve one on one attention, care, & Love. I care for pets by making sure their basic needs are met first. Along with assuring each pet is happy and are enjoying their time with me. So much that I want them to be excited with just hearing my name. Whether in my home or at a clients home I follow any specific care instructions, maintain a clean space and provide consistent attentions, love and care to help pets feel safe and happy in my presence.

“Samuel and Erica were great! I got lots of pictures and feedback. Samuel and Erica have Lana well trained as others have stated, and it’s evident. Moose settled in with them pretty quickly. Moose is small and didn’t want to play. They both learned to peacefully co-exist just as Samuel and Erica have experienced with other small pups. I highly recommend them!”
“Sabrina is an incredible dog sitter! She gave my pups so much love and attention and made sure they got plenty of exercise. She even bought them toys, bones, and helped train them. She has a nice fence in yard with an entire dog playground! She also kept me updated and sent lots of pictures and videos. She’s incredibly kind as well.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life! I’ve done everything from fostering to raising litters of puppies and kittens. I’m an active person so there is no shortage of playtime. I’m very dedicated to providing the love and support pets need! Caring for pets is always a priority of mine as I currently own a dog and cat myself. I work part time so my schedule is very flexible. I have a spare bedroom in my house with a large mattress for pets to rest on. There is space for a crate if needed. My backyard is very spacious. My area is fairly quiet as I live outside the city.

“Heather was an absolute delight! She told me everything she needed, and told me how she planned to take care of Sutton! I am a bit of an over thinker so that was so sweet to me. Sutton was happy the whole time! She was cared for like she was one of Heathers dogs! She followed Suttons schedule perfectly! I was able to relax and know that Sutton was in good hands while I was on my trip! I will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have cared for four dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. I currently have an 8-year-old mutt named Tucker who is incredibly sweet.

I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions you provide.
“This was our first time using Rover and really leaving our dog with someone we didn’t know so we wanted to be sure she would be safe and loved. Booking with Lori was the best decision we could have made! Her love for animals and experience with special needs dogs was evident from the moment we began speaking and the care our dog received from her is by far better than other past trusted sources we have used. We were nervous as I’m sure most people are when leaving their fur babies behind, but on the first evening we knew she was in great hands and we could finally relax. Our dog has one eye and is losing sight in the other and has some allergies, and Lori cared for her perfectly! She kept us updated with photos, messages, and videos and took her on plenty of walks and gave her all the love. Plus our dog really enjoyed being around hers as well! This experience was beyond our expectations and if we need to leave our dog in the future, Lori will be the first person we check with! Thank you for taking such great care of Osha and for making our first vacation in over 3 years the most peaceful experience we’ve ever had!”

“Hannah is the BEST!!! Highly recommended. I immediately felt like I was dealing with someone who has it together which gave me peace of mind that Moses was in good hands. She was friendly, communicative, and sent photos and updates. At no point was I worried about my sweet pooch. Thank you, Hannah. You’re greatly appreciated.”

About: Hi! I’m Salem, and I’d love to welcome your pup into my home while you’re away. ❤️ I believe boarding should feel like a vacation for your dog—not a stressful stay in an unfamiliar place. I provide a loving, comfortable home environment where dogs can relax, play, get plenty of attention, and follow a routine that helps them feel safe and settled. I have experience professionally in dog daycares, grooming, and boarding facilities. I am certified in pet cpr and can administer insulin or any other medications as needed. I’m very attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and loves to play, prefers leisurely walks and lots of cuddles, or needs a little extra patience while adjusting to a new environment, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I also pay close attention to body language and behavior so I can recognize when a dog is excited, overwhelmed, tired, or simply needs some quiet time. My goal is always to make their stay as positive and stress-free as possible. While your dog is staying with me, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never have to wonder how your baby is doing. 🥰 Your dog isn’t just a guest—they’re part of the family while they’re here. I’d be honored to give them a safe, loving home away from home! 🌅 Morning: Potty break, breakfast, medications if needed, and some playtime or a morning walk. ☀️ Midday: Supervised play, enrichment, cuddles, and plenty of downtime/nap time. 🌤️ Afternoon: Another potty break, playtime or a walk, depending on each dog’s energy level and needs. 🌙 Evening: Dinner, potty break, relaxed play or cuddles, and settling in for the night. 🌙 Bedtime: One last potty break before everyone gets cozy for the night. The most important part: I keep the schedule flexible based on each dog’s normal routine, age, energy level, and comfort. Some pups need lots of activity, while others are happiest with a quiet day full of naps and cuddles. I want their stay to feel as close to home as possible. 🐶❤️ Boarding from my home is my primary source of income, which means I’m able to make caring for your pups my priority every day. I’m here to give them plenty of attention, supervision, play, enrichment, and cuddles throughout their stay. When your dog stays with me, they’re not just being boarded—they’re spending their vacation with someone whose whole day revolves around making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. 💜🐾 I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming home environment where dogs can receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I have two friendly dogs of my own who can provide companionship for dogs who enjoy playing with others. I provide a variety of dog beds, toys, and enrichment items at my home and each furry friend is welcome to find their new favorite spot to lounge or thing to play with if they choose to. I will always accept items from home for them to feel cozy as well just be aware they will be in a group setting with other pups. I understand that every dog has different needs and comfort levels, so I’m happy to adjust their routine accordingly. Dogs who love to socialize can enjoy supervised playtime, while dogs who prefer their own space can have quiet time and relaxation away from the other pets. I’m also comfortable with crate training and can easily accommodate dogs who are crate-trained or who need a separate space for meals, rest, or decompression. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re in my home. 🐾❤️
“I booked this boarding stay last-minute, after our initial pet care plan fell through, but it really couldn’t have worked out better! Valentine and her family were so great with my pup, Rocky. They kept her safe and busy while my husband and I participated in a friend’s wedding festivities. I felt confident leaving Rocky with Valentine, and I would definitely book again if ever back in the area. She’s caring and knows what she’s doing with animals, for sure.”
