“Allison is amazing! So communicative and helpful. She sends tons of photos. We also think she may be the best cat whisperer - we love our big orange cat but let's just say he's not the most friendly kitty - she was able to feed him and sneak in a pet or two on the first round of visits. Couldn't be happier with her care and attention!”
“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her!

We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”
“Zoe is amazing with our animals. Our dog Ellie really seems to like her and likes to hang out with her. They even picked her up from a weekend kennel stay so we could arrive home to our pup ❤️. Over a long weekend, she stopped in to check on our smaller fury friend, Mason. He loved having her visit for pets and treats! Highly recommend Jolynn & Zoe.”
“We can rest easy when we’re out of town knowing our cats are in Caitlin’s care. She treats our girls like she would her own, and she is our vet tech as well! Thank you Caitlin, we so appreciate you.”
“Beth took care of my cats for 10 days and all went very well. My cats usually hide from the sitters but they greeted Beth and seemed to really enjoy her company. I felt very comfortable leaving my cats with Beth knowing they were well cared for. I enjoyed seeing their daily pictures too!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”

I also currently hold a secret clearance in the National Guard and coach multiple youth sports. I’m available for the next few weeks to walk doggos in the area. I will be available day and night and can fit the walks into your schedule As a pet walking service, I primarily care for pets in the comfort and safety of our clients’ homes. Understanding that each pet has its own routine, preferences, and personality, so I tailor care to meet unique needs. During each visit or walk, I make sure pets are exercised, mentally stimulated, and given plenty of attention and affection. Also follow any feeding, medication, or special care instructions provided by the owner. Treating every home with the utmost respect—keeping things clean, secure, and following all access instructions closely. If needed, I provide check-ins, updates, and photos to give pet owners peace of mind while they’re away. My goal is to maintain the pet’s normal routine as much as possible to reduce stress and ensure they feel safe and happy in their familiar environment.
“This was our first booking using this app, and I am thankful that Andrea was easy to work with. We booked last minute and did not have time to meet and greet, and she was accommodating of this. Our address is tricky and doesn't always show up on maps, but she was able to work around that, too. She sent us photos of our two cats, daily updates about their activity, and made sure they had food and water.”
“Amanda was EXCELLENT with our four cats. She gave us daily updates with pictures and even cleaned up the unexpected accidents around the house. If you are looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, she is the one.”
“Nicole was your quintessential sitter who had all of the tools with which to entice our pet to interact and play; however our little guy has been so shy of late that we felt sorry for Nicole. She was spot on everyday with our instructions for "care and feeding" but he just would not budge from his hiding spots. Thank you Nicole for sending photos each visit even if they were from under the davenport! We truly had no worries while away from home knowing that your professionalism and personal touch were present.”

Lucky, I was able to find Jessica last minute thru Rover and everything worked out perfectly! I’d never used Rover before and was a bit nervous to entrust a stranger with my lil girl but I ended up being worried for nothing!

About: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years. All of my pets have lived long, healthy lives based on excellent feeding, grooming, and regular medical care. I genuinely love animals and have a very watchful eye on their well-being. I am a retired school administrator with a 36-year history of creating productive learning environments and protecting the lives of thousands of school children. Care-taking is my thing. Now, I have a very flexible schedule/calendar, and I am wide open to opportunities to meet and care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I am available to follow instructions for drop-in or pet/house-sitting in the client’s home—including feeding and letting dogs out for potty breaks, feeding and checking in on cats, and feeding fish or birds.

About: Hi! I’m an experienced and loving dog owner who truly enjoys caring for animals. I have four dogs of my own and live on 7 acres in Chocowinity, giving dogs plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors, play, and get exercise. I offer a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for pets through boarding, daycare, and pet sitting. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care your pet may need. I love taking dogs outside, going for walks, playing, and spending quality time with them. I also enjoy taking dogs to the park when appropriate so they can get extra exercise and stimulation. Whether your pup needs a place to stay while you’re away, some daytime company and playtime, or someone dependable to care for them in your home, I’ll treat them like one of my own.

About: What sets me apart is that I actually stick to your pet’s routine and pay attention to the little things. I also don’t mind helping taking care of exotic pets because I am trying to be an Exotics/Wildlife Veterinarian and have always had a passion for exotics, so I’ll be more than happy to help! I’ve helped with puppy training like potty reinforcing basic commands, but I am always willing to learn any crate training or potty training. I’m also comfortable with senior pups and making sure they get extra patience, slower walks, or medications if needed but I will need to learn how to administer your pup’s medication. I always send updates and photos so you know your pups are happy and taken care of. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I usually plan my classes and responsibilities earlier in the day, so afternoons are open for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. It works out great because I can give pets my full attention without feeling rushed, and I’m able to stay consistent with their schedule. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding and walk schedules, give them plenty of attention, and respect their personality and space. I’m also very respectful of the home and always send updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

About: Growing up I wasn’t able to have pets, so I always volunteered to care for my neighbors pets. It was the best part of my childhood. Now that I have pets of my own, I’ve realized how much goes into it. I’m constantly researching new things to help my pets thrive. I rescued my dog as a puppy from the side of the road when I was 13. I had to learn to potty train her, leash train, etc. Realizing how many things could hurt her, even my everyday foods was enlightening and scary. Learning about cats and dogs is so intriguing and I want to understand each and every animal I take care of on a personal level. I am currently a stay at home mom to a 2 year old and newborn. While my little need a lot of one on one time, they sleep a lot allowing for plenty of time to spend with my fur baby as well as yours! My apartment complex offers a fenced in area for animal play which my pup loves taking advantage of. About once a day we go to said area to play and get all of our energy out, when we’re more on a time crunch we’ll take a lap around the building. We tend to go on walks every 3-4 hours or as Trixie let me know she’s needing to potty!
“Always a pleasure to see Jolynn! She’s the sweetest and loves my dogs like her own. She’s very flexible and easy to work with to cater to me and the dogs in regards to scheduling. I would highly recommend ❤️”

He is a black lab, German longhaired pointer mix. He is well tempered and plays well with all other dogs.

“Kyle was a very conscientious caregiver to our dog. He showed up twice a day (even in the rain) to walk our dog at my dad‘s house. He even went above and beyond by applying an antibiotic to her tail and putting the donut/tail guard on her every night. I strongly recommend Kyle to anyone needing thisservice.”

She was very thorough and attentive with Maya and took some great pictures too that I might have to get framed!”

“Overall great experience booking with Alexander! We left Sadie (6 year old German shepherd) in his care for 8 days and each day we received updates and pictures. I would definitely book with again in the future.”
“Merry Christmas, Marcia! Thank you for caring for my fur baby with love. Thank you for taking the time to send pictures almost every day. Thank you for treating Chewy like he is your own. 🎄🎁🎄”
“Booking with Kiley was the best decision we ever made! She sent tons of pics and videos, and nova had so much fun spending the weekend with her and her family. She played, did some crafts, and was so well taken care of. Nova is a puppy, and our baby so knowing she was in the hands of someone who loved her just as much as we do made us feel so much better about leaving for a long weekend. If you’re doubting if you should book- just do it!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She was absolutely amazing always kept me updated with pictures and videos, and my dogs looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Candace was wonderful. She helped me out last minute over thanksgiving. My dog came home calm and happy. She loved Candace’s dogs and I received lots of updates. We will definitely use her again!”
“Glory took great care of our three corgis. She sent us updates and they always looked happy and well taken care of. She was also very accommodating with pick up and drop off times. We would definitely leave them in her care again!”
“Klairi was great with my pup! My Callie girl got to make new puppy friends. She communicated and sent pictures while I was away to ensure that everything was good and she was having a great time. This was the first time I had ever left my pup before and I was a nervous wreck. Klairi was great and was amazing with my dog. I will definitely book again! Definitely recommend!!!”
“Caitlin made me feel so safe leaving my Boston terrier for the day. She sent lots of pictures, took her on walks, and let her lay outside to get her daily sun bathing in:) couldn’t recommend someone better!”
