“Katie and Jeremy were awesome! They were available for a last minute long stay and were very quick to respond. They sent daily pictures and even took our pup for a hike! Highly recommend a stay with them!!”
“I am so glad that I found Vicky through Rover! She did a wonderful job caring for my sweet Fiona. Vicky was communicative, caring, and made our dog feel at home in her care. I highly recommend her services!”
“We highly recommend Brody! He took incredible care of our 2yo poodle, who had never stayed overnight anywhere before. Our pup, Pierre, made a new friend named Blu and had a blast. We'll definitely be booking Brody again!”
“Joseph and Andrea were perfect sitters for my two pups! They sent pictures and updates and were incredibly prompt in their responses. They were also very flexible when my trip was cut short so I was able to pick up my dogs earlier than expected. I’m pretty sure my youngest dog would have stayed longer if given the choice which is a very good sign!”
“So happy to have found Sarah and her sweet family. Lincoln stays with ease and seems right at home in their environment. The backyard for Lincoln is an extra plus.”
“Don't hesitate to have Jessica and John watch your pup! Our 8 month old puppy Hazel had her very first stay with a sitter with Jessica and John and I felt SUCH peace of mind while we were out of state on a family trip! They have great energy, a sweet family, and show so much love- it's palpable walking into their house! Our dog is very much a hound and will sniff and puppy chew through anything- she is not able to be off leash yet outside of the house because she has terrible hound recall haha, but Jessica took all of my concerns to heart, followed my very detailed list of Hazel-care, and took GREAT care of her. No issues at all. They are the kindest family! We will absolutely be calling them again for our next pet sitting needs! Thank you, Jessica and fam! We appreciate you taking such good care of Hazel!”
“My little morkie had another wonderful stay with Maria and Jose! It is so comforting to go on a trip and not worry about my pup. They are excellent at communicating daily and treat her as one of the family. I highly recommend!!”
“Hope and her family are animal lovers and it shows. They were flexible about drop off and pickup times and weren't offended when I asked for a meet and greet before leaving our dog.”
“Fiona was the most relaxed she has ever been on pick up from a sitter so I know she was well taken care of . Terri was very prompt in answering messages . If we are ever in Asheville again I sure know who to request if we need a sitter . I highly recommend Terri .”
“Kali was amazing. Our pups are 4 & 11 and this was the very first time we’ve left them with a non family member. Kali cared for them and loved on them as good or better than we would have and shared photos throughout their stay. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“Willoughby always has the best time at Kristin's! He comes home happy and tired from playing so hard. We love that we know he's in good hands when we go out of town.”
“I highly recommend Caroline! From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of their needs. Caroline kept us updated throughout our time away, sending us regular photos and messages about our furbabies. This not only eased our minds but also showed us how much they were enjoying their time together. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, look no further than Caroline. We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Jen was wonderful. Went out of her way to make sure the dog would be safe and happy. Bought her a toy, walked her a bunch and sent her home happy and worn out from playing. She was a lovely person, easy to correspond with, and took great care of Flora. Thank you, Jen!”
“Alexis was a great host and Max came back happy and relaxed! She sent reliable communication and was super easy to coordinate schedules with. Will recommend and will book again!”
About: Hi, I’m Maddy! I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs and cats and have cared for my own pets throughout adulthood, including German Shepherds for the past 10 years. I live with my German Shepherd and two indoor cats, who are very much my babies, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I’ll care for them with that same level of love and attention. Horses were also a huge part of my childhood. I had my own horse growing up and cared for horses from fifth grade through high school, so I’m very comfortable around larger animals. I especially love big dogs and am comfortable with large or intimidating breeds. I own my home, which sits on an acre of land with a large, fenced backyard. There are no shared walls or homes stacked around us, so dogs staying with me have a private, peaceful space with plenty of room to play, sniff, and relax. I also work for myself, which gives me a completely flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time at home with your pets. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home while they’re here. I’m happy to follow their normal routines, give them plenty of attention, and send photo updates so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work for myself and primarily work remotely from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and am home most of the day. If I need to step out for work, it’s usually only for a few hours, and I’m never far from home. I also love being outside, so if your dog is an adventure dog, I’m always happy to have a hiking or outdoor buddy! For dogs who prefer to stay closer to home, my large, fully fenced yard gives them plenty of space to play, sniff, and enjoy some fresh air without needing to go anywhere. I’m happy to match your dog’s routine and personality, whether they want an active day of walks and outdoor adventures or a quieter day of backyard time, naps, and lounging around the house. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for a dog. I know that being in a new home with a new person can be stressful, so I’m patient and give each dog time to settle in and get comfortable at their own pace. I also have personal experience caring for a reactive dog, so I understand the importance of paying attention to body language, respecting boundaries, and being proactive about potential triggers. If a dog is comfortable and enjoys other dogs, I’m happy to gradually introduce them to my German Shepherd, Klaus. If they prefer their own space, my home has plenty of room to keep dogs comfortably separated when needed. I’ll always follow your instructions and prioritize what makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable during their stay.
“Richard was watching my puppy when hurricane Helene hit. Despite the chaos and crisis he stayed in communication as best he could and kept her safe the entire time I was gone. Words can’t express my gratitude. Aside from that, he was very accommodating of her puppy needs and took great care of her.”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Olivia took such great care of my girl! She made everything super easy and convenient for us. She was attentive to all of Benelli’s needs and she even sent regular updates so that I knew how she was doing. I would absolutely recommend her services!!”
“Miranda is the best! She took care of my very active puppy, and I knew leaving him that he was in good hands since she is so experienced with dogs. I would 10/10 use Miranda again.”

“Tiffany was great with my lil shy cat! She was able to send me a picture before he went to hide away and took care of all his needs. Such a peace of mind after a last minute holiday trip extension.”
“Becky was very accommodating and was great with my cat. My cat is a bit shy so I was worried he would stay in hiding during his visits with Becky but he came out to play the first visit. I was so thankful to have someone check in on him and will definitely be asking Becky for visits in the future when we go out of town!”
“Becca was extraordinary. She took exceptional care of my cats, she communicated beautifully, sent pictures of my special needs babies so I knew they were okay, spent extra time with my neediest boy. I wish I could give her a million stars because she was that good. I WILL hire her again to take care of everyone because she was so responsive and responsible that I know my kidlets are in terrific hands!”
“Haley was great! We needed a last minute sitter due to unforeseen circumstances. She was able to drop in on our cat, Toby, multiple times per day. We asked her to watch Toby the morning of the day we were to fly out of town. She was able to accommodate the last minute request. Made it seem like it was no trouble at all. House was clean when we came back home. Toby seemed well fed and taken care of. His litterbox was scooped, etc. Would highly recommend if you’re in need of a sitter! :)”
About: I've been around cats my whole life. My aunt has always had cats, so I've spent years caring for and interacting with them. I'm comfortable with their different personalities and understand that some cats are very social while others prefer their own space. What sets me apart is that I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to detail. I take the time to learn each cat's routine and follow the owner's instructions carefully, whether that's feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, administering playtime, or simply providing companionship. I also have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of visit times to meet your cat's needs.
“Emmie: I’m so happy that you’ve looked after Brutus (I renamed him), for the last few days Rescue cats often don’t have a name and are just given one. Anyway, thanks so much, until next time.”
“Kate really came through for us last minute. She was very thorough at introduction asking questions to make sure we were on the same page for the care of our pets. Her check-ins were detailed and included photos. We will book with Kate again ! Thank you so much Kate !”
“Miranda was amazing! Great at communicating and sending updates/photos so there were no worries while I was away. So grateful she was available to take care of my cat Mikoy!”
About: I have had a multitude of animals since I was young, which has led to many years of experience. I currently have a pet cat and dog. I’m a very active person and love going out in nature for walks and requests for longer walks beyond the 30 minute allotment are definitely welcome! I would love to build a strong relationship with the pets and owners I interact with to help build my experience even more and make your pets comfortable with a familiar face. I have a dog of my own that I walk and I’m a stay at home mom, which allows my schedule to be relatively open. In my clients home I will make sure the pet’s needs are met 100%. This includes making sure they have plenty of water, food and have had an adequate potty break. I will also play with the pet as long as their owner is okay with that.

“We were in a position where we had to find another doggie day care and boarding option. Fortunately we found Brody. He is obviously good with dogs, calm, communicative, and accommodating. Most importantly, our dog is happy to be there. We will definitely be using Brody from now on!”
About: I have had dogs, cats, birds, and much more animals my entire life. I love taking care of animals and have done it for friends and family for years. I’m very active and love walks and runs! I have 3 animals of my own including 2 dogs and a cat. I have taken care of baby, Senior, adult, healthy, and sick animals. I’m an animal lover and love meeting new people and animals. I have a lot of knowledge with animals for the simple fact that I have been around 100’s my entire life, from saving strays to having pets. I live in Weaverville and would love to help out with taking care of your pet or pets! I work all day but could be flexible. Im a personal trainer, my hours are 4am-2/3pm. I am available with at least a week notice. I can help on M-F and weekends with drop ins and walks. I have a yard as well as 2 friendly playful dogs. I have crates as well as separated floors that are gated off in my home that always help.
“Liessy, my mini-Schnauzer has serious separation anxiety. Miranda got down on the ground with Liessy and gave her a few treats and Liessy went along with this very well. While I was away, Miranda sent several photos showing my pup playing and getting along with a Golden Retriever. She's normally a bit leery of large dogs. Miranda knows how to make the newcomer comfortable. I'll definitely use her again when I'm in the Asheville area.”
“Laird was a super fantastic help on short notice when my fiancé and I were in town on a long weekend trip. We needed a place for Finnegan for the day, and he could not have been better cared for! 🥰 She sent plenty of great videos and one of the pictures she took just became his new profile pic! 🤩 Thanks, Laird!”
“Vicky was fantastic. Spencer was relaxed and happy when we picked him up. She was very attentive sent photos and asked questions. I was appreciative of her concern for my little guy. She was great. I highly recommend her.”

We felt so badly requesting to schedule within a day hoping she was available She was so accommodating and asked us about Dottie to know what she needed her personality etc Dot had the best time!! Jen sent photos and messaged We hope to return and will contact Jen!! We highly recommend her!! 🍃🏆🩷🐾😀”
“Jose and Maria took awesome care of our Cockapoo. I received photos and videos of our pet throughout the day. They were active with Marley including walks and time outside. I would definitely look to Jose and Maria to care for Marley again.”
About: Hi, I am a compassionate and dependable recent retiree. My two senior dogs passed away in the past 6 months and I am without any fur-babies for the first time in decades. I am honored to spend quality time with your loved one so you can have a worry-free vacation and I can have some doggy/kitty time! (I am comfortable handling two small dogs (under 40 lbs total) or one medium dog 40-50 lbs. If over 50 lbs we can chat to determine if it would be a good fit) I am newly retired and have plenty of free time. I do have community activities out but they do not dominate my day. I spend my time focused on creativity (working on art and music projects) at home. So your pup will have company pretty much all day whether you are boarding with me or I am housesitting for you. I am very active and have a daily exercise and yoga routine and my home is a healthy and veg-friendly household. I'll gladly walk your dog to the level he/she is used to (if it's hot I will walk early morning and/or evenings). My intention is to have your baby feel loved and safe with lots of attention and play and by sticking to the routine as you dictate. I am very tidy/neat and respectful of your home. I'm happy to water your plants etc. If boarding in my home, I am here most of the time. I live in a big house with my husb and high school aged daughter and we have a fenced in yard so there is plenty of room for your pup to do his or her business and run around and chase a toy. The neighborhood is very walkable and dog-friendly. I can also take your dog in the car to favorite walks (with your permission). If boarding in my home, I request that your dog is 100% house-trained and has good social skills/manners as well as being comfortable with having their own bed to sleep in.
“Gabriel was fantastic: on time, great attitude, super friendly, a real pro. Our pup Jack liked him immediately and he made Jack feel at ease, which is not easy to do because he is nervous when we leave him. So glad Gabe jumped in at the last minute to help us out while we were on a quick trip out of town. He came to our hotel room and stayed for a few hours while we were at a concert.”
About: I have been surrounded by pets my whole life. Growing up, we always had dogs, cats, and birds. When I moved to the U.S, I lived in the country side with many dogs and thousand of birds (literally). Now, I have a little Chihuahua mix; he is like my baby. I also help my friends sitting their dogs when they are out of town. I love animals; I like to play with them and give them a lot of attention. I have experience administering medication to pets either orally or injectable . I am educated and trustful person who will respect your home and your pets. I am able to pass a background check if it is required. I have a cellphone and my own car. My husband and I both work from home, so your dog will never be left alone. Our jobs are very flexible, which means we can take your dog for walks during the day. I have a very friendly old Chihuahua. My house is big, comfy and very clean. It's at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there's no traffic.
“Kristin was wonderful! We reached out with a last-minute request as our pet sitter for a wedding fell through and she was extremely accommodating. Our dog, Trooper, had never been watched by anyone outside of family before so we were a little nervous but he was in great hands! We would highly recommend!”
“Alyssa was absolutely amazing with my pup, Biggie! She took care of him while my family and I went to the Biltmore and out to dinner, and I couldn’t have felt more at ease. She sent so many pictures and videos throughout the time he was with her, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured. She was incredibly accommodating, and it was clear from the moment we picked him up that he had the best time! Biggie went straight to sleep when we got home, which tells me he was happy, loved, and well played with. Alyssa and her family treated Biggie like one of their own, and it truly meant so much to me. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and loving sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again whenever we visit!!”
“I'm so glad we found Nate!! He was so patient, easy going and communicated every step of the way. He didn't make us feel like our dogs were nuisances or an inconvenience like a previous sitter made us feel. I was so happy to see both my dogs having so much fun running around with Bilbo in the huge fenced in area. Bilbo is the sweetest dog ever! We're going to be repeat customers.”
“Golda took great care of Maggie while my husband and I went on a hike in the Great Smoky Mountains NP (no dogs allowed)😢. Maggie was smiling when we picked her up and it looked like she had a great time!”
About: I have hands-on experience working with dogs in multiple professional settings, including 2 year of shelter volunteering, 1 year as a behavioral kennel technician, 1 year of pet sitting and 10 months as a foster caregiver.I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments, including infant puppies, senior dogs needing mobility support, reactive dogs, and dogs recovering from illness or medical conditions. My approach is calm, patient, and enrichment-focused, with safety and positive handling as top priorities. If you have a dog you want round the clock specialty care for book with me, as I’m hand on and do rover full time! Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my schedule so your dog always receives dedicated, attentive care. I currently do rover full time , which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and enrichment visits. With me dogs are never left alone for long periods and can get all-day care and companionship. This is my full time job meaning this is a priority for me—not a side hobby. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine are always at the center of my schedule. Your dog will have so much fun with me! As I have access to a private dog park where they can get in tones of agility or just somewhere to have zoomies! We also have access to a nice scenic hiking trail. For some of are couch potato friends, we have a nice spacious apartment with pet approved couch to lay on and just enjoy a relaxing, quite place! As for my furry friends that ill be sitting for at there place, I like to give them plenty of play time in there space and yards. Along with nice long walks through the neighborhood! Attention to detail, and love is what I thrive for when taking care of your pet!

Prices are estimates per walk. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. All have been taken care of from 2 months and onwards! I find joy in connecting with animals and serving them - as they have served my life in beautiful ways by just expressing their unconditional love and gratitude with their movements and actions rather than words. It is an gift to be loved by these beautiful creatures daily. I am currently working independently and using this time to create and spend time with nature’s gifts. My schedule is very flexible - and I am willing to work with you! I make sure that they are walked, legs stretched, bowels taken care of, fed, played with and loved. Following the rules as listed by the parent. Mindful of the surrounding environment and respectful of what is needed of me.
“Becca was prompt and communicative, we were so grateful for the updates and the reliability! We didn’t get to meet Becca in person this time but hope to in the future!”
About: Hi! I'm a dependable, caring animal lover who understands that pets are family. I grew up with a dog, so I know the importance of providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping pets safe and comfortable. I've also provided drop-in visits for pets, making sure they were fed, had fresh water, received potty breaks, and got the care and companionship they needed while their owners were away. In addition, my aunt has two cats, so I'm comfortable around cats and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and detail-oriented. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or someone to spend time with them while you're away, I'll follow your instructions carefully and treat them with the same care and respect I'd want for my own pet. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate daytime, evening, weekday, and weekend visits. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for while you're away. If you'd like updates or photos during my visits, I'm happy to provide them. Pet care fits well into my routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to be available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits. I enjoy spending time with animals and appreciate the opportunity to help pet owners who need someone dependable to care for their pets while they're at work or away. I'm happy to work with each family's schedule and follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, take dogs out for potty breaks or walks, provide playtime and attention, and clean up after them as needed. I also make sure the home is left just as I found it and carefully follow any instructions the owner provides. At this time, I plan to provide care primarily in my clients' homes. I believe many pets are happiest and most comfortable in their familiar environment, where they can stick to their usual routine and experience less stress while their owners are away.
“Megan was so caring for my pups! She kept in touch with updates and pictures, and made sure they got exercise and extra love in my absence. I definitely plan to use her in the future!”
“Miranda has exceeded my expectations! She is friendly and very professional. She spent an hour with us during a meet and greet to make sure my dog and I were comfortable with her. She’s respectful and great with communication! Only thing I wish, is that there were two of her!”
About: I've had pets my whole life. I did 4 years of vocational training in veterinary medicine throughout high school, and I also pet sitted for neighborhood pets during that time. Afterwards, I went to college and got a Bachelor's degree in Animal Sciences, focusing on Behavior and Well-Being. I had many animal related jobs throughout that time and am fully ready to return to caring for cats and dogs. I'm currently working full time, so I am a bit busy. However, I am trying to get a part time job so I can have more time to dedicate to your beloved pets. I prefer to care for animals in their own home, so they can still feel a sense of safety and comfort if they are wary around strangers or don't care for new environments.
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've taken care of dogs since I was five years old. I still distinctly remember the breeder of the first dog I ever owned - a chocolate lab named Ginger - looking me in the eye after seeing I was apprehensive about the dogs and telling me, "Son, some day this dog will be the best friend you ever had." Ginger and I went everywhere together. I've had dogs and cats virtually my whole life, and the animals love me. While I am employed full time, I work in a hybrid setting that includes roughly 3 remote days per week, so I can be pet sitting on site and developing as close a band as I can to alleviate the babies' separation anxiety. I aim to please - if you'd prefer for your fur baby to be crated at night, then I will make sure s/he does that. My only job, other than to make the babies' experience as smooth as possible, is to follow the directions laid out by the owners.
About: Dogs have always been a joy for me to be around. I’ve completed several dog-sitting stays, including a two-week stay and multiple week-long stays, where I cared for feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines. While I’m newer to professional dog walking, I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to giving every dog plenty of exercise, affection, and care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I work hard to make both dogs and owners feel comfortable. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I work from home on my small business and attend occasional makers markets, making it easy for me to accommodate walks, and drop-in visit needs throughout the week. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Safety is my top priority during every walk. I regularly walk my mother-in-law’s dog and am experienced with keeping dogs secure on leash while paying close attention to our surroundings. I take appropriate precautions based on the environment, including traffic, wildlife, weather conditions, and interactions with other dogs. I understand that every dog has different comfort levels and needs, and I work to ensure each walk is safe, positive, and stress-free.
“Rosko loves walking with Emmie! She's got a lovely calm energy which balances Rosko's enthusiasm, and they're happy to see each other. She's also great at communication, letting me know what's happening and being clear about availability. Five wags!”
About: Pets have been part of my caregiving life for decades. Through years of in-home care for elderly and ill clients, I’ve walked, fed, and loved countless dogs and cats — including seniors and pets needing medication. I treat every animal with the same patience and attention I give people. As a retired caregiver, I have a flexible, open schedule and can give your pet consistent, reliable attention. I’m generally available most days and will work with you to find timing that aligns with your travel plans. I specialize in both short and longer-term overnight house and pet sitting. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d give my own. With years of experience managing households, I follow your pet’s routines, administer medications if needed, and keep everything safe, clean, and calm. Your home will be just as you left it, your pet even happier.
About: I have many years of experience with small animals of all breeds, sizes, ages, and medical needs. I also have some experience with large breed animals from volunteer work at a horse rescue.

About: I have always loved and enjoyed caring for animals. My home has always had a four legged family member occupying space. From rabbits to pot belly pigs it’s such a joy to love and care for them. I’m currently a full time student that takes online classes. So my schedule is pretty free and flexible. I don’t have a traditional job so I’m home a lot. I have a front and back yard that I can walk your fur baby in. I also have 2 friendly fur babies of my own to keep them company.
About: I've grown up around big dogs my whole life and love all pets more than anything. I believe every pet should feel loved and happy with the humans they around no matter how old, or young, they may be. With a very open schedule, I am happy to commit however long or short needed for your special companion! I am looking to find many jobs throughout my last semester at UNCA. I plan to schedule my days around walks or sittings I may have booked since I only have a few classes. I miss being around my dogs at home so helping care for your pets brings me joy! I respect the client and pets' space- no questions asked. Never hesitate to give me lists and lists of expectations, or just tell me to have fun! Whatever you need done will be accomplished!

“Katie and Jeremy were awesome! They were available for a last minute long stay and were very quick to respond. They sent daily pictures and even took our pup for a hike! Highly recommend a stay with them!!”
“We highly recommend Brody! He took incredible care of our 2yo poodle, who had never stayed overnight anywhere before. Our pup, Pierre, made a new friend named Blu and had a blast. We'll definitely be booking Brody again!”
“Joseph and Andrea were perfect sitters for my two pups! They sent pictures and updates and were incredibly prompt in their responses. They were also very flexible when my trip was cut short so I was able to pick up my dogs earlier than expected. I’m pretty sure my youngest dog would have stayed longer if given the choice which is a very good sign!”
“So happy to have found Sarah and her sweet family. Lincoln stays with ease and seems right at home in their environment. The backyard for Lincoln is an extra plus.”
“Don't hesitate to have Jessica and John watch your pup! Our 8 month old puppy Hazel had her very first stay with a sitter with Jessica and John and I felt SUCH peace of mind while we were out of state on a family trip! They have great energy, a sweet family, and show so much love- it's palpable walking into their house! Our dog is very much a hound and will sniff and puppy chew through anything- she is not able to be off leash yet outside of the house because she has terrible hound recall haha, but Jessica took all of my concerns to heart, followed my very detailed list of Hazel-care, and took GREAT care of her. No issues at all. They are the kindest family! We will absolutely be calling them again for our next pet sitting needs! Thank you, Jessica and fam! We appreciate you taking such good care of Hazel!”
“Kali was amazing. Our pups are 4 & 11 and this was the very first time we’ve left them with a non family member. Kali cared for them and loved on them as good or better than we would have and shared photos throughout their stay. We will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“I highly recommend Caroline! From the moment we met, it was clear that she has a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of their needs. Caroline kept us updated throughout our time away, sending us regular photos and messages about our furbabies. This not only eased our minds but also showed us how much they were enjoying their time together. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, look no further than Caroline. We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”
“Alexis was a great host and Max came back happy and relaxed! She sent reliable communication and was super easy to coordinate schedules with. Will recommend and will book again!”
About: Hi, I’m Maddy! I’ve been around animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs and cats and have cared for my own pets throughout adulthood, including German Shepherds for the past 10 years. I live with my German Shepherd and two indoor cats, who are very much my babies, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I’ll care for them with that same level of love and attention. Horses were also a huge part of my childhood. I had my own horse growing up and cared for horses from fifth grade through high school, so I’m very comfortable around larger animals. I especially love big dogs and am comfortable with large or intimidating breeds. I own my home, which sits on an acre of land with a large, fenced backyard. There are no shared walls or homes stacked around us, so dogs staying with me have a private, peaceful space with plenty of room to play, sniff, and relax. I also work for myself, which gives me a completely flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time at home with your pets. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home while they’re here. I’m happy to follow their normal routines, give them plenty of attention, and send photo updates so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I work for myself and primarily work remotely from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and am home most of the day. If I need to step out for work, it’s usually only for a few hours, and I’m never far from home. I also love being outside, so if your dog is an adventure dog, I’m always happy to have a hiking or outdoor buddy! For dogs who prefer to stay closer to home, my large, fully fenced yard gives them plenty of space to play, sniff, and enjoy some fresh air without needing to go anywhere. I’m happy to match your dog’s routine and personality, whether they want an active day of walks and outdoor adventures or a quieter day of backyard time, naps, and lounging around the house. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for a dog. I know that being in a new home with a new person can be stressful, so I’m patient and give each dog time to settle in and get comfortable at their own pace. I also have personal experience caring for a reactive dog, so I understand the importance of paying attention to body language, respecting boundaries, and being proactive about potential triggers. If a dog is comfortable and enjoys other dogs, I’m happy to gradually introduce them to my German Shepherd, Klaus. If they prefer their own space, my home has plenty of room to keep dogs comfortably separated when needed. I’ll always follow your instructions and prioritize what makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable during their stay.
“Miranda is the best! She took care of my very active puppy, and I knew leaving him that he was in good hands since she is so experienced with dogs. I would 10/10 use Miranda again.”
“Laird was great for our 1.5 year golden. We were from out of town but wanted to bring our pup with for some hiking but he couldn’t stay in the hotel. Laird was flexible as we want to pick him up for a hike and drop him back off the same day!”
“This was our first time leaving Oliver for more than a couple of days and I was feeling anxious, but when we picked him up from Nancy’s place he seemed right at home! He made friends with her dog and the other guests, enjoyed running in her yard and watching the farm animals, and Nancy sent us the cutest photos while we were away. I’d definitely recommend her and we will book again in the future!”
“Toby had a great weekend with Ali and Penny. Ali took great care of him, gave frequent updates, and went above and beyond in her flexibility and taking care of our boy. Will definitely be asking her to watch Toby again next time I need a sitter.”
About: I have had dogs, cats, birds, and much more animals my entire life. I love taking care of animals and have done it for friends and family for years. I’m very active and love walks and runs! I have 3 animals of my own including 2 dogs and a cat. I have taken care of baby, Senior, adult, healthy, and sick animals. I’m an animal lover and love meeting new people and animals. I have a lot of knowledge with animals for the simple fact that I have been around 100’s my entire life, from saving strays to having pets. I live in Weaverville and would love to help out with taking care of your pet or pets! I work all day but could be flexible. Im a personal trainer, my hours are 4am-2/3pm. I am available with at least a week notice. I can help on M-F and weekends with drop ins and walks. I have a yard as well as 2 friendly playful dogs. I have crates as well as separated floors that are gated off in my home that always help.
“We couldn’t be happier to have found Alyssa and Bryan to love on our two doodle boys while we were away! From the moment they arrived, our pups were showered with so much care and affection. Daily hikes, endless ball throwing, and constant cuddles. Alyssa sent the best photo updates throughout their stay, which completely put us at ease and showed just how much fun our boys were having. When it was time to come home, our pups were actually sad to leave! The energy in their home and on their beautiful property is warm and welcoming, and Alyssa and Bryan are simply the most wonderful, loving people. We feel so lucky to have them to watch our boys!”
“I felt extremely at ease leaving our dog with Kristin and Seth. She has been with them twice, and both times it has been a wonderful experience knowing she was well taken care of while I was away. I enjoyed all of the photos they shared, and I appreciate their flexibility in working around our schedules. I highly recommend them!”
“Daniella did such a great job with the dogs! We have never left them this long before and we were worried how they would be when we got back. They came home happy and full of energy, totally their normal selves. It was great getting photo updates every day. I would certainly use Danielle again. Thanks so much Daniella!”
“Teresa is fantastic! She kept me updated with photos of Karma & Kylo, and always was sure to respond when I checked in. She took such good care of my two kitties and I will definitely be contacting her for future boarding needs! Thank you Teresa! 🖤”
“Nola had a great vacation with Katie, Preston, and their furry family. She was loved and cared for and even had a bath! I will definitely book a stay for Nola with this wonderful family again.”
