About: We offer a private alternative to traditional boarding. Dogs stay on acreage with plenty of outdoor time, but also a structured, safe environment. Each dog gets individual attention, consistency, and a calm experience—especially for dogs that don’t do well in busy kennels. Pet care is a central part of our daily routine. I work from home and spend much of my time on the property, so your dog is rarely left alone and gets consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule so I can provide structured outdoor time in a safe, controlled environment, along with individual care based on each dog’s needs. I also intentionally limit the number of dogs at one time, which allows me to maintain a calm, low-stress setting and give each dog the level of attention they deserve Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family. We keep a clean, calm, and comfortable home environment, and your dog will be included in that same space and routine. I follow each dog’s needs closely—whether that’s a structured routine for feeding, exercise, or any special care—so their experience feels familiar and low-stress while you’re away.

About: My family and I love pets and we always treat any pets as if they are our own we don’t do this for money we do it because we enjoy it. I work full time but I am flexible with checking in on pets and making sure they don’t need any other assistant I will be the only one doing so I have a fenced in yard with a dog myself that goes outside multiple times for outside play an stays in doors you can depend on me having the same respect for your animal as well.

About: I have a fairly large background in animal care, it has always been a passion of mine - specifically dogs & horses. I take pride in how well I care for animals. I do not have a fenced yard yet but the dogs will be strictly supervised on a leash when outside of my home. I have 1.2 acres and a great neighborhood for walks. I will gladly work on in home manners with your dog/s while in my care as I believe training should be daily and enjoyable! I work part time and also own a photography business so my schedule is pretty flexible for dog sitting. I do this primarily cause my dog loves to have a friend over and since we are out in the country there are not too many other dogs for her to play with nearby. - Dogs are ALWAYS supervised and on a leash when outside of my house. - Dogs must be up to date on all shots. - Dogs are to be crated when my direct attention is not on them or if I need to go run a quick errand. This is never for longer than 2 hours. I have two large crates. - Dogs are crated at bed time. Usually around 9pm-7am. This may vary depending on dog's usual schedule. - Dogs have daily individualized walks. - I will help instill everyday manners & any sort of training help you may need. - Of course treats & cuddles daily! - I have a TON of references, you may ask me for the list!

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. Through my veterinary class, I learned how to recognize behavior cues, signs of distress, and how to keep pets safe, calm, and cared for. I also gained experience grooming and handling dogs with gentleness and patience. On top of that, I cared for my own dog for nine amazing years—he taught me that love, trust, and attention make all the difference. I’m a full-time student Monday through Friday, but I get out early on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I’m available for afternoon and evening visits those days. I’m also fully available on weekends, and Saturdays and Sundays are my most flexible days. If you ever need a specific time, feel free to message me I’m happy to work with your schedule! When I visit your home or take your pet on a walk, safety is my top priority. I follow your routine exactly — feeding, potty breaks, and any special instructions you have. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure before heading out. On walks, I stay alert to other animals and keep your pet close and comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have taken care of each and every pet I’ve had. I have always had either a dog or cat in my house. And each of my family members have had pets that I have been around as well. I also use to volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for injured animals. I have my own mini farm, where I have pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys! So if you need any of those types of animals cared for I can do that too! I have a very flexible schedule so I basically have the whole day to come take care of any pets! I have plenty of time to come and hang out with your furry family! I have four loving dogs that get outside all day long because I have so much time during the day and a very large fenced in backyard. We go on walks all the time! We can have a pet play date if your pet likes other dogs. If you need your pet needs to crated, I can do that. If they need soothing music put on, I can do that too!

About: In my 5 years in vet care, I worked with both cats and dogs in providing medical and boarding care. I have also owned two rescues cats that I loved dearly. I tend to take the cautious approach toward them at first and find that that helps them open up. Happy to provide care for them.

Kate taking care of our cat allowed us to actually enjoy our nearly weeklong trip. Our cat has some difficult health issues, a finicky diet, and loves attention. We were so grateful for Kate’s updates, where it was so clear our cat was happy, healthy, and very well-taken care of. We’ve had several pet sitters over the years, and Kate was the best by far!

Great sitter for our two kitties for a week, when our other sitter wasn’t available. Trustworthy and would book again. Courtney was responsive, took pictures of the kitties, and was not hesitant to ask questions while we were gone. She had no issues using our technical alarm system. We appreciated that she brought in our mail without being asked (we never expect our pet sitter to do this, but always appreciate it) and she was accommodating to our change in travel schedule. Thanks Courtney!

About: I love animals, I am currently going to school to become a Marine Veterinarian. I also did an Internship at an Animal Hospital for about a year and a half. I have personally been taking care of animals since I was about 14. I had a husky for almost 12 years, I had to give her baths, take her on walks, and feed her. I now have a Shih Tzu and for her, I have to take her to her hair cut appointments, her vet appointments, give her baths twice a week, walk her and feed her. I also took care of my Grandma’s cat and I had to take her to hair cut appointments, feed her, and clean her litter box. I am hardworking and also put 110% into everything I do. I am very reliable, trustworthy and I make sure everything I do is done correctly. I have also watched way more pets than what rover says I have, and about 95% of the people I dog sit for do reach back out to me to see if I can watch their pet again! I am a full time student! I havs a part-time job back in august because I wanted to take a break from pet sitting since I had been doing it continuously for so long. I still pet sit for my old clients, but am now ready to take on some new ones! I’ve realized I want to work my way back into pet sitting so I can quit my part-time job! I would prioritize the visits needed over my current job for your animal! :) I really do miss pet sitting and hope to be able to get back into it! The pets I have watched, if it’s at the owners house, or mine, they always seem very happy, and the owners are always pleased when they arrive back home! I am very observant when it comes to watching animals, so I try to provide the best care I can while they are with me!

About: I’ve worked a cumulative of 5yrs in vet care before becoming a nurse. I have experience with both the medical care and boarding care of cats and dogs. In the past I have house-sat for clients with 4+ animals and provided walks, playtime, meals and even medications for 3+ days at a time. I also have experience raising puppies from 6months of age. While dogs are my favorite, cats hold a special place in my heart. Currently we have two big, loving fluff ball's of our own. I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with, walk, and give potty breaks to your lovable four legged family members. I’m typically available between 7am and 7pm. When I first meet a dog or cat I approach them with caution. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible with a new person in their home. Once they’re comfortable with me I like to give a lot of positive reinforcement with love and treats. I have experience in low-stress handling as well. Happy to take dogs out for potty breaks, walks, and play time. Also happy to care for cats.

About: Hey there! I’m Allie. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur-babies, and my goal is to help both you and your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I always recommend a meet and greet so we can get acquainted and make sure I’m the perfect fit for your pets. I like to take the time to sit down, get to know both you and your pets, and answer any questions you may have. I moved to North Carolina from Virginia in 2019 when my husband’s military service brought us here. Since then, I’ve been pet sitting full time while completing my college studies. At home, we share our lives with our dog and two cats, who inspire me every day to provide loving, dependable care for all pets. I’ve spent my life around animals and have worked professionally in nearly every area of pet care, including animal hospitals, boarding facilities, grooming salons, and in-home pet sitting. These experiences allow me to confidently care for pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets. Including administering medications and providing extra support for pets with medical or behavioral needs. I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals, from dogs and cats to hamsters, bunnies, reptiles, chickens, goats, and horses. If I haven’t worked with a species yet, I’m always eager to learn. No two animals are alike, and I love discovering what makes each one special so I can provide care tailored to their personality and needs. I am very flexible and able to provide your pets lots of quality time. 30 Minute Drop in: This is a quick visit to check in on your pet. I’ll let them out for a potty break, refresh food and water, give any needed meds or treats, and spend time playing or cuddling. I’ll send you photos and updates along the way. Perfect for a midday break or some company while you’re away. Overnight Stay: Your pet will have company and care throughout the night. I’ll follow your evening routine with dinner, a potty break, any meds, playtime, then stay overnight for supervision and comfort. In the morning, I’ll handle breakfast, another potty break, and fresh water, while keeping you updated with photos and messages. Light home care, like checking mail or plants, can also be included. Ideal for pets who need extra comfort and prefer staying in their own home. When caring for others pets I treat them as my own. Whatever your pet needs, I'll happily accommodate them to the best of my ability. I always triple check doors are locked when I leave, and that there is nothing in reach that could be harmful to your pets. (human food, dog treats, toys etc)

About: I am a certified, licensed, and insured dog trainer and the owner of Chaos To Clarity K9. I work with dogs and their families on obedience, leash skills, everyday manners, and behavior challenges. Many of the dogs I help are everyday family dogs who need guidance with things like pulling on leash, barking, jumping, reactivity, or learning how to settle in the home. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping owners build strong foundations early through clear communication and consistency. I have a strong interest in behavior modification, especially helping dogs work through fear, stress, and reactivity at a pace that keeps them comfortable and learning. My husband is a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and a combat veteran and former military police K9 handler who trained civilian police dogs. Because of his veterinary background, I’m also able to consult with him when behavior questions may have a possible medical component, which can sometimes play a role in behavior. I also understand that dogs live in real families with real challenges. I live with multiple sclerosis and am raising an autistic four-year-old, so I appreciate how important it is for training to be practical, realistic, and supportive of the household environment. My goal is always to help create calmer, safer, and more enjoyable relationships between dogs and the people who love them. One thing that’s very important to me is paying attention to canine body language and stress signals. Dogs communicate constantly through subtle changes in posture, facial expression, and movement, and recognizing those signals early can prevent many behavior problems from escalating. During training, I help owners learn how to recognize what their dog is communicating so they can respond in a way that builds trust, confidence, and better behavior over time. Dog training is part of my regular weekly routine, and I intentionally keep my schedule structured so each client receives focused attention. My current training availability is: • Tuesday: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Saturday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Sunday: Afternoon appointments available by request Closed: Monday and Friday Because each dog and family has unique needs, I limit the number of training sessions I take each week so I can provide thoughtful, individualized guidance and follow-up support between sessions. Safety, trust, and clear communication are always my top priorities when working with dogs and their families. I pay close attention to canine body language and stress signals to make sure dogs remain comfortable and able to learn during training. Training sessions focus on creating a calm, structured environment where both the dog and owner can succeed. I work at the dog’s pace and help owners understand what their dog is communicating so they can respond clearly and confidently. My goal is to create training plans that are safe, practical, and sustainable for everyday life, helping dogs feel more secure while helping owners feel supported throughout the process.

About: I have trained all the dogs I ever had . I fostered and dog sit . I have lots of experience. I'm an animal lover I do work. But when I'm not working I'm spitting every living minute with animals. I love my dogs and help walk my senior neighbors dogs in the morning and when I come home at night . I do live in an apartment. And though that might be questionable we do have a lovely dog park and a wonderful area to walk the dogs around.

About: We offer a private alternative to traditional boarding. Dogs stay on acreage with plenty of outdoor time, but also a structured, safe environment. Each dog gets individual attention, consistency, and a calm experience—especially for dogs that don’t do well in busy kennels. Pet care is a central part of our daily routine. I work from home and spend much of my time on the property, so your dog is rarely left alone and gets consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule so I can provide structured outdoor time in a safe, controlled environment, along with individual care based on each dog’s needs. I also intentionally limit the number of dogs at one time, which allows me to maintain a calm, low-stress setting and give each dog the level of attention they deserve Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family. We keep a clean, calm, and comfortable home environment, and your dog will be included in that same space and routine. I follow each dog’s needs closely—whether that’s a structured routine for feeding, exercise, or any special care—so their experience feels familiar and low-stress while you’re away.

About: I have a fairly large background in animal care, it has always been a passion of mine - specifically dogs & horses. I take pride in how well I care for animals. I do not have a fenced yard yet but the dogs will be strictly supervised on a leash when outside of my home. I have 1.2 acres and a great neighborhood for walks. I will gladly work on in home manners with your dog/s while in my care as I believe training should be daily and enjoyable! I work part time and also own a photography business so my schedule is pretty flexible for dog sitting. I do this primarily cause my dog loves to have a friend over and since we are out in the country there are not too many other dogs for her to play with nearby. - Dogs are ALWAYS supervised and on a leash when outside of my house. - Dogs must be up to date on all shots. - Dogs are to be crated when my direct attention is not on them or if I need to go run a quick errand. This is never for longer than 2 hours. I have two large crates. - Dogs are crated at bed time. Usually around 9pm-7am. This may vary depending on dog's usual schedule. - Dogs have daily individualized walks. - I will help instill everyday manners & any sort of training help you may need. - Of course treats & cuddles daily! - I have a TON of references, you may ask me for the list!

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. Through my veterinary class, I learned how to recognize behavior cues, signs of distress, and how to keep pets safe, calm, and cared for. I also gained experience grooming and handling dogs with gentleness and patience. On top of that, I cared for my own dog for nine amazing years—he taught me that love, trust, and attention make all the difference. I’m a full-time student Monday through Friday, but I get out early on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I’m available for afternoon and evening visits those days. I’m also fully available on weekends, and Saturdays and Sundays are my most flexible days. If you ever need a specific time, feel free to message me I’m happy to work with your schedule! When I visit your home or take your pet on a walk, safety is my top priority. I follow your routine exactly — feeding, potty breaks, and any special instructions you have. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure before heading out. On walks, I stay alert to other animals and keep your pet close and comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have taken care of each and every pet I’ve had. I have always had either a dog or cat in my house. And each of my family members have had pets that I have been around as well. I also use to volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for injured animals. I have my own mini farm, where I have pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys! So if you need any of those types of animals cared for I can do that too! I have a very flexible schedule so I basically have the whole day to come take care of any pets! I have plenty of time to come and hang out with your furry family! I have four loving dogs that get outside all day long because I have so much time during the day and a very large fenced in backyard. We go on walks all the time! We can have a pet play date if your pet likes other dogs. If you need your pet needs to crated, I can do that. If they need soothing music put on, I can do that too!
