Raquel was incredibly attentive, sending us updates and photos throughout our dog's stay, which really put our minds at rest. Her home is welcoming, with plenty of space for dogs to play and relax, including a large fenced-in yard that’s absolutely beautiful. Our dog had so much fun running and playing with Raquel's two I'm two boys. She came home happy, healthy, and well-cared-for, and we could tell she had a great time. I highly recommend Raquel's dog boarding service to anyone looking for a safe, loving environment for their pets!”

I would highly recommend Savannah, and I would definitely book again!”

I will definitely use her again for boarding”

“Amber did a wonderful job checking in on my cat while I was out of town. She administered medication according to my cats needs, and made sure she had food and water while I was gone. She sent a detailed update after her visit and provided many pictures which was very much appreciated! I will definitely book with Amber again!”
“Nicole is the best!! She showed up when we needed her the most. We had to leave to haul supplies to Asheville but our cat didn’t come home the night before. Thankfully Nicole was there to make sure she got inside and was taken care of. We can’t thank you enough Nicole, you eased our minds and hearts! ❤️”
“Natalie came by to check up on our 2 cats who are normally very shy, but they opened up to her immediately & was comfortable with her from the beginning of her first visit! I would recommend Natalie to anyone with fur babies, she’s the best!”
“Tessa is an amazing sitter! She is kind, thoughtful, caring, and trustworthy. We couldn't ask for anyone better to watch after our fur babies while we're away from home!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I have some vet experience, and have house sat for many friends. I am very patient with dogs and cats. I treat any animal as my own and have personal training experience with my dog as well. I am currently working part time and have a lot of time during the week and weekends to play with your fur babies to give you a piece of mind! Unfortunately I have 3 animals at home so I am not able to have animals at home :( I love dogs and cats and want to help anyone who may not have as much time to get out with their fur babies or for those that just need a breather!
About: I've always had a big heart for all animals. Growing up, we weren't allowed to have any pets larger than a rabbit- so I worked with that. We had fish, turtles, a lizard, chinchilla, but always begged for more. On my 12th birthday was when my sister and I were finally granted a miracle- our mother was allowing for us to adopt a set of kittens. From there, our furry family grew. We now have another cat and two dogs! When working to prove our responsibility, my sister and I took it upon ourselves to become our neighborhoods pet sitter and walker. In school, I had won an award for dedicating most community service hours where I volunteered to help at my local animal shelter. After high school I moved a lot for school and work, so had to leave behind my furry family behind at my familys home. Today in NC I have a small pup and rescued stray cat. They are the lights of my life and I would love to share some love with your fur baby as well!
“Phoebe is awesome! She sent us daily photos of our happy cats and was even able to get our shy cat to come out and play. Great communication and super friendly, will definitely be requesting her again!”
“Kristin did a such a great job with our cats! She made us feel so much better about having to leave them for a trip. She’s very communicative and reliable, I highly recommend her.”
“Carol was great! I have never had so little to do when returning from a trip! The cats were happy, no messes (that's a big thing with my cats!) and it was wonderful to know they were so well cared for. Carol was very communicative and went the extra mile. I will definitely ask her to sit again. ”

“Gabrielle dropped in on my dog Doc. I had just rescued Doc and was worried about how he would do home alone and I wasn't sure about his personality yet. I needed someone to drop in on him who was knowledgeable enough about dogs to be cautious with my new baby. Gabrielle did just that! She stopped in played with Doc and gave him so much love. She took a lot of pictures and videos of him and let me know how he was doing. She followed my directions and was respectful of my home. Now that I have had Doc for a couple of months he has shown his wild side! As a shelter pup, he didn't have much training and there were days when I felt frustrated with his behavior. I eventually reached out to Gabrielle for advice and I'm so glad I did. She was very responsive and gave me great tips and tricks that really helped! Since then, Gabrielle has continued to drop in on Doc. She helped Doc get used to walking on a leash and taught him his first commands. He knows sit, down, place, and is working on wait! Gabrielle is truly amazing and I can't recommend her enough.”
“Stephanie was great with Buster!! Always on time and attentive to keep his normal schedule while we were out of town! She even made Buster little pup treats! Highly recommend!”
“Maddie is great! She did drop-in visits with our 12yo pup and made sure to send photos each day. We appreciated her flexibility to do a meet and greet prior to the booking as well. 5 stars!”

“Gabrielle was amazing! We needed a few hours for our boy to hang out and she furnished a safe and loving environment. Will definitely use again on our next visit down.”

“Savannah is great! She went above and beyond to accommodate my fluctuating schedule while I was in town for family events. She was extremely kind and sensitive to Sunny's needs. He is an older dog, and needs medication and TLC. She sent updates and photos, always a reassuring thing! I would give her 10 stars if I could, and am very happy to have found her. I will absolutely use her again!”
About: I love all animals but especially dogs. I’ve had dogs in my house for as long as I can remember. I know your fur baby is family and I’ll treat them like one. I am a stay at home dog grandmother and available most of the time. I do travel to see my daughter occasionally but always have plenty of advance notice. I don’t have a fenced yard but can take your pup(s) on short walks. Dogs are welcome anywhere they feel the most comfortable in my home, including couches.
“Rebecca was a perfect sitter for our puppy. She had her dog to be a playmate for our rambunctious Jack Russell. It was very convenient to drop him off and pick up. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of my families pets since I was 13, and I became a dog owner 4 years ago!! My baby Jack is a beagle - cavalier king charles spaniel mix and he is the sweetest. I have experience walking dogs, feeding them, bathing them, cuddling with them, and so much more. I absolutely love dogs and spending my time with them :) I work from home during the school year (Aug-May) so I’m available for drop ins, walks, and house sitting after school hours (4pm-late)! I am very flexible with hours and days. For boarding and doggy day care, I work from home 9am-4pm M-F. I see clients in person 4:30-6:30 Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. For doggy daycare my hours are 8am-4pm. if you are unable to pick your dog up before 4:00, then they can be crated during 4-6:30pm. Or, I can drop them off by 4. Weekends I do not work so drop offs at 8am and pick ups are flexible. I can provide play time with my dog inside the home and outside in my yard. They will be supervised at all times by myself or my spouse. They can be let out hourly or more. Can go to the dog park in my neighborhood right behind my house during my lunch break and when I get off at 4. must be friendly with other dogs because my dog will be present! during the summer I only work 1 day/week so very open! I will not allow dogs out without a leash if there’s no fence, and I will always listen to an owners instructions on how to best care for their fur babies. in my home, I have a fenced in backyard. I do not leave dogs home alone unless they are in a crate or kennel. There is a neighborhood dog park right behind my house ( that is typically empty ) that our dogs can play in as well.
“Steven and his family did a fantastic job caring for my pup! Walks, play and he even gave him a bath after a long day of play. Steven was very cordial, prompt and sent some pics throughout the day!”
About: We have been taking care of dogs since 2018! We are so enjoying it!! Hubby walks the dogs and I cuddle and play! It's a win win for your fur baby! For doggie day care we are available between 8 am and 6pm Monday through Friday. Would love long term . We do have one small dog. For boarding we are available both weekdays and weekends. We have a nice fenced-in backyard and my husband takes the dogs out for walks when possible! When that option isn't available,they have dedicated playtime in the yard.We have one dog that is not initially playful but takes a while to warm up but he does typically! I do require a meet and greet before committing and for pets to show proof of rabies shots,heartworm and flea and tic treatments. I work part time outside the home but my hubby works part time in the home so rarely are we both gone at the same time. I have a fenced in yard and my husband tries to walk our dog daily.Typically will hit the area walking trails. If necessary, he is willing to walk animals separately(older dog who can not walk as long or dogs who have health challenges)Our dog is aloof and takes a bit of time to adjust but usually does. We are attentive to this and supervise very closely until we see how things are going to be. We own both a large and small dog crate and can separate them if needed
“We selected Julia for our Carolina Dog based on reviews, her experience with big dogs and the fact that she is a certified dog trainer. We were delighted to find that in addition to all of that she is kind and caring too. Zoë has found a new friend as well as a home away from home and we have found piece of mind.”
About: Hi! I’m Emma — dog mom of 3, lifelong dog lover, and small-dog boarding specialist in Wilmington, NC. I have three friendly small dogs of my own (Cavaliers + a Cocker Spaniel), so your pup will always have built-in friends, supervised playtime, and a home-based environment instead of an overcrowded kennel. Taking care of dogs is just part of my everyday life! I work from home, so I’m with my dogs pretty much all day. We keep a regular routine of potty breaks, playtime, and light training throughout the day. On weekends, we love to switch things up with a hike, a beach stroll, or grabbing a pup cup at our favorite coffee spot. Whether it’s a chill day at home or an adventure, I’m always focused on making sure the dogs in my care are happy, safe, and well-loved. Located in a safe, quiet Scotts Hill neighborhood with a fully fenced backyard for playtime. I only board 1-2 dogs at a time, so your pup will always get personal attention and care. They have the option to have their own cozy suite or stay in the same room as our resident pups, both with comfy bedding, toys, and all the essentials. Please note all pets are crated when unsupervised and overnight. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your dog feels right at home!
About: There is nothing I love more than taking care or sweet fur babies. I’ve had personal experience taking care of dogs of any size for over 11 years. I have one small dog of my own that is old and very easy going. I currently work full time with kids with Autism. I usually work from 10-4. I prefer dogs that are crate trained and that can be left alone for a few hours. I am also available to dog walk before and after work! I have a large backyard area, however; it is not fully fenced. I make sure dogs are leashed when we hang out in the backyard!
About: What sets me apart isn't just a love for dogs — it's a lifetime of it. I raised my own dog for 13 years, through every stage of her life, and recently said goodbye to her. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and the kind of deep care that only comes from truly bonding with an animal. When your dog is in my hands, they're not just being watched — they're being loved. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I work from home, which means dogs in my care are never left alone for long. My apartment complex has a dog park right on-site, making it easy to give pups plenty of fresh air, exercise, and socialization throughout the day. Having raised my own dog for 13 years, structure and daily care come naturally to me. I treat every pet in my care as my own. My home is a calm, safe, and loving environment. I pay close attention to each dog's individual personality and needs, and I always keep owners updated with regular check-ins. After 13 years of raising my own dog, I know how important trust and communication are for pet owners leaving their fur baby in someone else's hands.
“Colby & Debbie are wonderful to work with. They take great care of my puppy & always send plenty of photos to ease my mind. They have so kindly adapted to her little puppy needs & pay close attention to how she is feeling. I look forward to bringing her to their home because I know that Albie will have a blast being loved all day & playing with their pups while I also can focus on work without worrying. They are wonderful & I absolutely trust their care!”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and animals ever since I can remember. I'm available to board, day care if your dog needs attention during the day or another dog friend. I have helped my family and friends with taking care of birds, dogs, and even hamsters. I have two kids ages 5 and 9 as well as my furkid Roxy my golden/hound mix. I work from home and I'm available all week when needed. Please feel free to message me with any additional questions you might have. Also if you have an animal that might need special care. I have one friendly golden/hound mix that we adopted. I have a fenced in yard and my dog goes outside whenever she asks as well as first thing in the AM and prior to bedtime which is about 830pm. With the kids we are in and out of the backyard all day as well as walks through the neighborhood.
About: I’m a dog lover with one very sweet pup, Goose. I recently lost my beloved pittie, DJ, and while I’m not ready to bring a second dog into my family full-time just yet, I do miss having a second set of paws in the house. That’s why I started Rover. It felt like a beautiful way to share my home, help another family, and bring some joy back into my daily routine. I work from home, so your dog will have constant company, plenty of attention, and a peaceful, structured environment. Goose and I do two walks a day (morning and evening, when it’s not too hot!) around the quiet pond in my neighborhood. I have a spacious house with lots of room to play, sunbathe, and snooze. And yes, the dogs are absolutely allowed on the couch, the bed, and pretty much wherever they feel comfy. My backyard isn’t fully fenced, but I use long 20-foot staked leashes so the dogs can safely run, lounge, and soak up the sun while I hang out with them outside. What sets me apart? I really love dogs. Like, more than most humans. I treat every dog like my own, with gentleness, attention, and a deep respect for their routines, quirks, and needs. Goose is the ultimate host: calm, kind, and respectful with every pup he meets. Whether your dog needs space, playtime, meds, or just someone to sit with them while they nap, I’m here for it! Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I work from home, so your pup will have constant company, whether they want to play, nap nearby, or just follow me around like the world’s cutest coworker. Goose and I do two walks a day (morning and evening) around the pond in my neighborhood. During the day, I hang outside with the dogs for short breaks using 20-foot staked leashes so they can safely sniff, sunbathe, and stretch their legs. Inside, my home is peaceful, spacious, and fully dog-friendly. Couches, beds, and sunny windows are all fair game. I don’t use a crate by default, but if that’s part of your dog’s routine, I’m happy to include it — just bring theirs along. Your pup will be treated like one of my own. Loved, safe, and never left alone for long. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only host one dog at a time (or one family of dogs), so your pup will never be overwhelmed or competing for attention. If it’s your first time booking with me, I like to schedule a quick meet-and-greet to make sure your dog and Goose get along. He’s incredibly sweet and respectful, but I want everyone to feel safe and comfortable before a stay. I supervise all outdoor time. My yard isn’t fenced, but I use 20-foot staked leashes so the dogs can safely lounge and sniff while I’m outside with them. Inside, it’s a calm, cozy, dog-friendly home. Couches, beds, and sunny spots are all fair game. I’ll keep your pup’s routine consistent: feeding schedules, crate time (if needed, just bring yours), and any medication they need. Whatever they’re used to, I’ll stick to it. You’ll get regular updates and plenty of cute photos, and your dog will be treated like one of my own.
“Julia is amazing, super welcoming and friendly. Gus is just adorable, so sweet and easy to get on with other dogs. Maya had such a great time under Julia’s care would highly recommend her to any one. Thank you.”

I listen to the needs of each pet from their respective parent and effectively prioritize those requests immediately. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and various temperaments.

“Banjo absolutely loves and waits for Nicole to open the door and take him on a walk. He knows her name before she ever comes which tells me that he’s very excited about the treatment that she does in making him feel comfortable on his walks. what a peaceful feeling for a dog owner to know that their dog is that well taken care of.”

About: I offer dog walking, potty breaks, and playtime as well as house sitting. I love being outside. I have had dogs and cats all of my life and I am very responsible and compassionate. I treat all pets as if they are my family. If you have a high energy dog I can definitely handle him/her and wear him out! I can also care for cats, fish, rabbits, etc. (no snakes please!) I can bring in mail, take trash cans to and from the curb on trash days, water plants, you name it! Message me for details!! I enjoy walking dogs and letting them out to use the bathroom first thing each morning. If they require constant care I can do that or if they’re fine to do their own thing I can also leave them to that. I prefer caring for pets in the pets home. This is more comfortable for them anyways. Doggy anxiety is a real thing! And when their family is out of town, it’s best to keep them in their own comfortable environment.
“We love Emma! She is a kind soul and very gentle and caring with Rae. She takes time to love on her and talk to her as well as even work with her building bonds through training. We feel very blessed that we found her!”
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs from young to old, small to big, and healthy to sick/disabled. I’ve been looking after neighbor’s and family friend’s dogs for the past 6 years. I’ve done drop ins, hung out at the house for 24/7 attention, and stayed the night at the home. I am now available every day of the week all day, unless specified otherwise in my calendar. I will be starting a summer internship on June 22nd and I will update my calendar with the days I’ll be there when it gets closer to that time. I will also be out of town through July 12th through August 2nd. I treat all pets I come by with love and respect and do my best to accommodate their needs. Some clients require special instructions or have a specific way of doing things that i’m glad to follow. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable and well taken care of.
About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs, fostered puppies, and love helping others by providing attentive, caring pet sitting filled with cuddles, playtime, and long walks. I As a part-time interpreter and mom, I’ve built a schedule that’s both flexible and dependable, perfect for providing consistent, attentive pet care. I’m used to managing multiple responsibilities with care and precision, and I bring that same level of dedication to every pet I look after. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, or walks, you can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring. I treat every pet like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I’ll visit at the agreed-upon times to provide walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of cuddles and attention.

I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you provide, including medications or special care needs. During each visit, I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and have never met an animal who doesn’t love me! I would love to walk your dogs and treat them as if they were my own! I recently graduated from NC State University and am currently looking for a fun way to spend my summer, so my availability is endless! I would have no problem fitting in a dog walking into my schedule. I have a fenced yard and do not keep any food or ingredients where an animal could grab from. There are no harmful flowers in my home and I am aware of what dogs can and cannot ingest.
“We are so thankful to have found Tessa. She takes great care of our pup, sends lots of pictures and communication is top notch! We would not hesitate to recommend Tessa!”
About: I have a 1 year old dachshund so I have gotten pretty used to caring for dogs especially puppies! She gets along with all types of dogs! I work part time and the other parts of my day include hanging out with my dog and taking her on walks! I like to get a lot of exercise in so i enjoy long or short walks! I have a small fenced in backyard and love to engage with the dogs and I think it will be fun to teach them little tricks! My home is super dog friendly and have a neighborhood to take them on walks!
“Sara is great with our one year old me Golden Retriever Abby. Abby is excited to see her at the door for her weekly walk. Sara is patient with Abby, she gets excited and is not the best walker.”

I have experience walking dogs, feeding them, bathing them, cuddling with them, and so much more. I absolutely love dogs and spending my time with them :) I work from home during the school year (Aug-May) so I’m available for drop ins, walks, and house sitting after school hours (4pm-late)! I am very flexible with hours and days. For boarding and doggy day care, I work from home 9am-4pm M-F. I see clients in person 4:30-6:30 Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. For doggy daycare my hours are 8am-4pm. if you are unable to pick your dog up before 4:00, then they can be crated during 4-6:30pm. Or, I can drop them off by 4. Weekends I do not work so drop offs at 8am and pick ups are flexible. I can provide play time with my dog inside the home and outside in my yard. They will be supervised at all times by myself or my spouse. They can be let out hourly or more. Can go to the dog park in my neighborhood right behind my house during my lunch break and when I get off at 4. must be friendly with other dogs because my dog will be present! during the summer I only work 1 day/week so very open! I will not allow dogs out without a leash if there’s no fence, and I will always listen to an owners instructions on how to best care for their fur babies. in my home, I have a fenced in backyard. I do not leave dogs home alone unless they are in a crate or kennel. There is a neighborhood dog park right behind my house ( that is typically empty ) that our dogs can play in as well.
About: What sets me apart isn't just a love for dogs — it's a lifetime of it. I raised my own dog for 13 years, through every stage of her life, and recently said goodbye to her. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and the kind of deep care that only comes from truly bonding with an animal. When your dog is in my hands, they're not just being watched — they're being loved. Caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I work from home, which means dogs in my care are never left alone for long. My apartment complex has a dog park right on-site, making it easy to give pups plenty of fresh air, exercise, and socialization throughout the day. Having raised my own dog for 13 years, structure and daily care come naturally to me. I treat every pet in my care as my own. My home is a calm, safe, and loving environment. I pay close attention to each dog's individual personality and needs, and I always keep owners updated with regular check-ins. After 13 years of raising my own dog, I know how important trust and communication are for pet owners leaving their fur baby in someone else's hands.
“Evelyn made arrangements with me when I was in a bind and showed up early at 7:30 to walk my girl the next day. She is so easy to communicate with and treats my dog exceptional. I feel she is reliable and looks after my dog as her own. I was just impressed at how quickly she accommodated me and made my dogs day :).”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I have some vet experience, and have house sat for many friends. I am very patient with dogs and cats. I treat any animal as my own and have personal training experience with my dog as well. I am currently working part time and have a lot of time during the week and weekends to play with your fur babies to give you a piece of mind! Unfortunately I have 3 animals at home so I am not able to have animals at home :( I love dogs and cats and want to help anyone who may not have as much time to get out with their fur babies or for those that just need a breather!
“She treated our dog so well and was flexible with her needs. We also have cats and she didn’t seem to mind them at all. She is super responsive and easy going, I would definitely recommend!”
About: I’ve been a devoted dog mom for 13 years and have two pugs of my own, including Bentlee, a rehomed liver shunt survivor whose health issues I caught and acted on quickly. I have hands on experience with medication management, senior dog care and the unique needs of small breeds and flat faced breeds. Every dog I care for is treated exactly like my own. 🐾 Dog care fits naturally into my daily routine as a dog mom and online college student with a flexible schedule. Every dog gets my full love and attention.🐾 I maintain a calm, safe and loving environment. My dogs are crate trained, obedience trained and follow structured routines including enrichment, exercise, special diets and daily grooming. 🐾
About: I’ve always connected well with animals, especially dogs. I’ve dog walked and watched others’ animals from a very young age. I was 22 when I decided to become a dog trainer. I was fortunate enough to attend one of the best programs in the country at Animal Behavior College, with a certificate in canine behavior therapy & a concentration in rehabilitating shelter dogs. I’m also qualified to train emotional support animals, which has been so rewarding. I chose this as a career path because of how much I genuinely love all living things. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them the best care they could ask for! I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can tend to whatever schedule best suits the animals. I don’t have pets of my own, so that gives me even more flexibility. I always make sure I’m doing my best to care for animals, in any aspect of my life or career. I’m diligent in making sure their feeding, walking and play schedules are upheld promptly, and that their routines stay relatively in tact. This is one of the best things you can do to ease a pet’s anxiety about their owners being away. I work as a trainer, which means I’m happy to add on training sessions with your pet while they’re in my care, through my business if that’s something of interest. I’m very amenable to the specifications for each individual animal. Some dogs like to be given affection on the couch for a few minutes each day. Others might enjoy watching the birds in their yard for a while. I’m always happy to attune my care for each dog. When walking a dog, the quality of the walks are just as important as their frequency. Dogs require a certain level of mental stimulation each day, and ten minutes of sniffing is enough to satisfy most dog’s needs. They need the sniffing as much as the exercise. Your dog will be given ample time to sniff and “read the doggy newspaper”, as well as get some great exercise. I always make sure the animal has gotten everything that they need from the experience.
“Gina was fantastic! She was very responsive and Lucy loved her right away which speaks volumes since she is very cautious when meeting new people. I highly recommend Gina and have already booked our next walk!”

“I had the pleasure of using Raquel's dog boarding service, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience! From the moment we dropped off our dog, we felt at ease knowing she would be in such caring and capable hands. Raquel was incredibly attentive, sending us updates and photos throughout our dog's stay, which really put our minds at rest. Her home is welcoming, with plenty of space for dogs to play and relax, including a large fenced-in yard that’s absolutely beautiful. Our dog had so much fun running and playing with Raquel's two I'm two boys. She came home happy, healthy, and well-cared-for, and we could tell she had a great time.

I will definitely use her again for boarding”
“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!”
