“Please please book ! Tionne was so thoughtful and my pup was in great hands. Lots of updates and pictures and the environment was so safe and loving . We will be booking again.”
“Kristen and her family took wonderful care of our Dashi! She’s very responsive and provides frequent photos. Dashi was happy to see us, but we could tell that she was well cared for and content. She had a great time playing with Bentley and other friends!”
“Zoe enjoyed spending time with Chantel and family. Chantel provided frequent updates and pictures. I’m sure Zoe will return for additional visits. Thanks Chantel for taking care of our Zoe.”

“Christina & Christopher cared for my dog for 3 weeks, the longest I have ever left her, and I felt very comfortable. They kept in good communication with comments and pictures and I especially appreciated that they were honest when I had any concerns. I would definitely recommend them!”
“I recently moved to NC and needed to find boarding for my dachshund, and I’m so grateful I found Ashley! From our very first conversation through the meet-and-greet and then the big event — his two-night stay — she truly went above and beyond. I felt completely at ease leaving Barkley with her. Her genuine love and care for animals is apparent, and she treated him like one of her own. She sent regular updates and photos, which made being away from him so much easier. I will absolutely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate care for their pup!”
“Stephanie and her family always treat Jordi like one of their own! We never worry for a second leaving our sweet pup with their family. We feel so lucky to have found them and to have them to love on our Jordi whenever we are away!”

“We left our 3 yr old Bulldog with Kaitlin, Jeff & Kids for a week and had an amazing experience. Our pup absolutely loved being at their house. She was treated like she was their own dog!! She loved playing with all the kids and their pups. Communication from Kaitlin & Jeff was fabulous! We will absolutely be using them again and highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Ksenia was so wonderful with Wrigley. She kept me updated over the weekend letting me know that he was adjusting just fine. She sent me pictures. Wrigley can be a little anxious at times and when I came to pick him up, he was super chill, which means I know he felt very comfortable at her house. Would recommend without hesitation.”
“She was an amazing dog sitter. She kept Sheba for 3 days and kept us informed the entire time. She let us know right away if anything was off and truly cared about Sheba’s wellbeing. She was also very kind and professional when we met. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her.”
“We're very happy and pleased that we found Kelley on such short notice! She is so kind and her home offers the perfect environment for any pet. She sent us pictures of Marshall while we were away on vacation and that really helped put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip that much more because we knew he was in great hands. Marshall was very happy to have another dog and a couple loving boys to keep him company. I would highly recommend Kelley and look forward to using her again!”
“Tim and Jen and their sweet family were amazing to my fur baby. He loved all the special attention from the kiddos and received countless pets and snuggles. I returned home to a very happy (and tired lol) boy! Definitely will be booking again and recommend this sweet family!”
“Kim and John were very nice and sent pictures of our boys every night. She also gave consistent updates of their day. I think the dogs really enjoyed staying with their dogs and the freedom on the couches. Definitely recommend and would use them again”
“Claudia did an excellent job! She communicated on a daily basis, which made me feel comfortable and eased my mind, since this was the first time being away from Dozer. She sent pictures and videos and took care of him as if he was her own. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her.”
“This is my first time using Rover & Samantha made me feel so comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. She communicated and sent pictures everyday. And I will be happy to book again.!”

“They were absolutely amazing! I got really good consistent updates on our fur babies and they had a great time! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a good environment to have their fur baby stay.”

“Brooke was so amazing! Nala absolutely loved her and she was very easy to get ahold of whenever I had questions, plus always provided many check in photos. Will definitely be booking her services again in the near future.”

About: Hello! I’ve grown up with dogs almost all of my life. The only time I didn’t have a pet was when I first moved away from home, but I got my wonderful dog, Poppy, as soon as possible. Followed by our gentle Snoopy and now Kevin Bacon the cat. I look forward to making your pet feel loved and cared for however long they need it!! Please feel free to reach out if you have questions! I work remotely from home and have a fairly flexible schedule. I do have a toddler at home but can coordinate care or bring him along when possible. I’m happy to follow your specific instructions for walks or drop in visits. I’ll treat your home like my own and make sure your pets feel as comfortable as possible.
“Josie/Kitty is extremely shy but really seemed to be comfortable with Miya. She usually hides under the bed the entire time and anyone else is here, but she came out to say hi when Miya came over. It made me feel so much better about leaving her, knowing she was well cared for and not scared. Miya communicated with me during my trip and I felt better knowing she was there. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter. She’s reliable and really seems to care about all animals.I would love to have her come back next time I need a pet sitter.”
“I couldn't have done it without Caitlyn's help. I've booked her services twice and will continue to do so. She was very flexible with both her and my schedule, accommodating my needs, and accepting my request on very short notice, which I greatly appreciated. Caitlyn also brought in all my packages and took excellent care of my cat, Ralph, while I was out of town. I highly recommend her!”
“Chelsea was great and bonded with my 4 cats (some skittish) right away. The feedings went well over my 4 day holiday judging from all the photos Chelsea sent me twice a day. Plus messages from her everyday which made me feel even more secure. I highly recommend Chelsea for all your pet's needs.”
“Vanessa was so fantastic! Very thorough, spent lots of time with the kitties and sent so many photos. She was very communicative and asked permission before bringing her daughter to the house during a visit. Our cats loved interacting with her while we were away, we never worried for a second! Will definitely book again.”
“Lauren was wonderful. She did everything we asked and took good care of our cat while we were away. She even brought a package inside that was left on our porch so it wouldn't look like we were away. Would definitely engage her again.”
“This was my second booking with Sydnee and she did a great job once again. She even got my notoriously shy cat partly out of her hiding place under the couch to hang out in a more visible spot during one of the visits! She provides thorough and enthusiastic updates each day, showing she really cares deeply about the animals she takes care of.”
About: Friendly, Reliable Pet Sitter I’ve loved animals my whole life and have always had dogs and cats as part of my family. I’ve also lived with roommates’ dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with all kinds of personalities and routines. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—whether that means going for walks, playing in the yard, giving plenty of attention and cuddles, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m also comfortable helping with oral medications when needed. Beyond pet care, I’m happy to help with small things around your home while you’re away, such as watering plants or gardens and taking out the trash. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets—and your home—are in good hands! 🐾

“They were amazing! I was nervous to leave my pups but they were so tuckered out when they got home and I know they took great care of them while staying there! Will definitely use them again when I need a sitter!”
“First and best experience with a pet sitter! I’ll always have her watch my pups, she treats them like her own family! My doggies are well cared for and I feel mentally at ease.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, and recently gained experience caring for cats, birds and rabbits. I have also spent some free time volunteering in animal shelters so I am comfortable with all animal sizes. I hope to care for your fur baby soon! I currently work remotely full time which allows me to spend time with pets who are in need of boarding. Because of my time at home, pets will receive lots of attention and care. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who are fully vaccinated and enjoy playing with others. One is an American foxhound and the other is a great dane
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I provide dependable, loving, and attentive care so your dog feels comfortable, safe, and right at home while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing by your side, I am committed to giving them the same patience, attention, and care I would want for my own pets. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are always my top priority. Pet care fits naturally into my daily schedule because I am home most of the day and have the flexibility to give your dog plenty of attention and care. My dogs are typically only left alone for about two hours at a time, so your pet will have lots of companionship, playtime, potty breaks, and supervision throughout the day. I’m happy to maintain your dog’s normal routine and make them feel comfortable and at home while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being is my top priority. I provide a clean, calm, and welcoming home where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality while providing plenty of supervision, affection, and companionship. You can feel confident knowing your dog is in a safe and loving environment with someone who genuinely care about their happiness. I have a fenced in backyard and can easily crate them if this is needed.
“Marlon was great with our pup, it was Genji’s first time with daycare, first time being away from home and he was a little anxious but Marlon made sure Genji felt comfortable. He”
About: I’ve had my own pets since I was old enough to walk! I have a cat and great dane, and have had many other small pets in the past. I walk my great dane every day and I am happy to take care of your little loved ones! I am a full time student and work/volunteer part time, so I try to be as flexible as I can with clients. I am happy to make space in my schedule to take care of your furry friends! I do not leave pets unattended. I am very observant and quick on my feet. Your pets safety is my #1 concern. My pets get loads of love and attention they need at home
“I booked last minute for a dog daycare with Dean for my two Great Pyrenees. He was very flexible and caring with my pups! I will definitely bring them back! Thank you Dean for taking care of Lucy and Valentino!”
“Staci is an excellent pet sitter that provides amazing care for our Maggie. Maggie has separation anxiety and needed to start developing social skills to help her with separation and just overall being around other people and pets. I am so happy that I found Staci, because after just the first time that she cared for Maggie, I can see how happy my furbaby gets when I even put her in the car seat. Maggie gets so excited because she knows we are on our way to a play date or overnight fun filled stay with Staci. I’ve observed how much calmer Maggie is and how much she loves to be at her sitters house. Thank you Staci for caring for our Maggie with such love and care. My family and I appreciate you so much. -Dina”
About: We have a spacious 1.3-acre property where dogs can enjoy plenty of room to play and exercise. Our friendly, crate trained dog, Yuki, loves having company. Dogs have access to fresh water, a dedicated open living room for roaming and play, neighborhood walks, and a backyard dog-play area. We supervise all outdoor time and keep dogs separated when we aren’t nearby. We also follow each dog’s normal feeding routine and provide a safe, comfortable environment. As someone who is home most of the day, I have the time and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care. Your dog will enjoy regular walks, plenty of attention, and a routine that closely matches what they're used to at home. I'll also follow feeding schedules carefully and make sure your pet has the space and comfort they need during mealtimes. I have one dog at home, and your pet’s safety is always my priority. I have a huge, fully fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to exercise, play, and relax. There is also a front yard with a secure dog tie-out pole, allowing them to safely enjoy the front area as well. The backyard has plenty of shaded spots for comfortable outdoor time, and all pets are always supervised while outside. I live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood with great walking areas, and I’ll always follow your pet’s routine, care instructions, and individual preferences to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. I have extensive experience working with dogs of various breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Providing safe, reliable, and attentive care is something I take seriously, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I am currently a full-time student, which allows me to spend lots of time at home. Your pet will receive plenty of attention and will not be left unattended for extended periods. Our home has a fenced yard and is located in a safe, walkable neighborhood with plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. Pets are treated like family here and are welcome throughout the home.
About: We're conveniently located just off of hwy 401 and near I-95 and I-40. I've always had family pets since I was the age of 2. I've cared for all ages of dogs and cats. I've been a midwife to many previous cats, bottle fed, watched live births of pups, and administered oral medications. I am always available for play time and snuggle time. I currently work part-time and am only away for 6 hours during the day. During this time my husband or my teen are usually home for part of that time. It's perfect because our pets aren't left all alone for very long. I have 2 dogs, one is playful and one is very relaxed. They have been around other dogs a number of times and loves playing at the dog park. They are friendly. At night our dogs are able to go upstairs and sleep in our room. During your pups stay, they are welcome to sleep anywhere in the house. We have a spare room downstairs that I'm happy to stay in if they need that (my dogs take up our whole bed upstairs). If your pup is crate trained and prefers their crate, I suggest you bring it for their stay so they can feel more at home.
About: When I was 3 we had cats in the house and a dog. As I got older we had more cats and dogs. I have always been around them. I currently have 2 labs & a beagle. I have experience with elderly dog care, puppy, administering medication & monitoring input and output. I do know how to clip dog nails & clean their ears as well as bathe them. I am a full time mom and I stay home with our 3 children. My children love to be outside so we spend a lot of time outside playing with our dogs. We have a fenced backyard - about .4 acres fenced in. We live in a development and go on walks with our dogs. We have built in dog crates in our entertainment center where dogs could sleep if needed. We also have a dog fence we could make a play area for.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both a senior dog and a high-energy Golden Retriever puppy. This has taught me how to balance gentle, patient care with active play, training support, and consistent routines to meet each dog’s unique needs. I work from home so I’ll be home with the pups all day long! I’m able to take them out as needed throughout the day and can feed them or provide any other individual care they may need! My home is pet-safe with an indoor gate for added security, and I provide regular, supervised potty breaks to ensure pets stay comfortable, safe, and well cared for.
About: Have owned my own dogs and cats over the years. As they've grown older and passed on, I have satisfied my love for animals by caring for my kids' pets when they go on vacation. I've gone to their house and stayed, but also they have stayed in my home while mom and dad are away. We go for walks, and I have a fenced in yard and doggy door them to come and go as they please. Like my grandkids: I love having them and playing, but I also love the flexibility of sending them back to mom and dad! I am a retired teacher and am home most days. I have various errands during the day, or other things, but nothing that would interfere with visiting guests. I no longer have a dog of my own but our visiting fur babies ( and the grands) have a fenced yard with doggy door. Dogs are secure inside the back yard. I care for one dog, that loves the back yard and wants to stay out all day, weather permitting. He is safe and secure there with water and shade, and comes in when he is ready. But most of the dogs come inside. They are free to go out to play and do their business.
“Claudia is an incredibly good person, super empathetic and kind. Kira loves her, she is excited to go to her house, when we are going to leave her, she looks for her entrance alone to stay with Claudia ♥ ️”
About: I have had all different breeds of dogs in my life and am very familiar with all of the different personalities of dogs! My family members and friends have relied on me to watch over their fur family members. My schedule is very flexible and I have a ton of availability. When you book with me, my priority is your pet and their needs. I have a very friendly dog that can tag along for walks if your dog may need social time or a buddy! You can trust that I will care for your pet as if it were my own! :)
About: I have a background in animal husbandry with experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, fish, and reptiles in both professional and personal settings. I have a B.S. degree in Zoology and have worked at a veterinarian’s office, Zoos & Aquariums, as well as ran my own rabbitry business. I love caring for animals, it is my passion. I would love to care for yours! I am currently a stay at home mom and work from home part time as a travel agent so I have plenty of time to care for pets and make sure they are well cared for. I have a large indoor space and a large backyard, with plenty of walking areas in my neighborhood. I live with my husband, two kids, and Shih Tzu puppy.
“Tracey is an excellent sitter! She was very accommodating to our schedule and did a wonderful job taking care of Annabelle! She was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the day, which we loved to see. Annabelle had a blast and we’re looking forward to booking Tracey again soon!”
About: While I have loved dogs all my life, about 20 years ago I discovered a passion for dachshunds and small dogs in general. For about the past two years, I have been working with a rescue agency based in Tennessee, where there are not enough foster homes. I began with assisting in transport of rescue dogs into Foster, and then became a foster home myself. My own dogs have been adopted, and I have extensive experience with issues of aging, small dog problems in general, and administering medicine. I am caring, compassionate, reliable, punctual, and will treat your baby as if it were one of my own. I am able to accommodate requests and. special needs. Your baby will vacation in my home while you are out of town. Now that we are retired I am happily at home with my dogs and yours. We do early morning walks before the day gets too hot. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs that will keep your fur baby company I have crates and x-pens here and can use them as needed, and my dogs are gated n the kitchen if I have to go run an errand.

She is wonderful! Very kind and competent!”
About: Hi! My name is Phinette! Growing up, I have always been a huge animal lover. As a child, I had three small dogs who I am so grateful I got to grow up with until they were in their late teens. My family rescued our current pit bull mix, Oakley, 6 years ago, who is now reaching his elderly years, as well as six cats! I truly love seeing the different personalities in each animal and finding out what makes them unique. I am great with high energy dogs including puppies, love being active, so I would love to help get their energy out with walks/runs! I am currently a Physical Therapist Assistant student and attend school Monday–Thursday, typically from 8:30 AM–4:00 PM. My availability will change throughout October and November, so I’ve outlined my schedule below to make it easier to see when and where I’m available! **House Sitting** **Through October 7:** I’m happy to travel farther for house sitting, especially toward the Chapel Hill/Pittsboro area since I commute there for school. **October 8–26:** I’ll have open availability and can travel to a wider area for house sitting. **October 27–November 20:** I’ll be completing clinicals in the Lillington area from approximately 8:00 AM–4:30 PM, so I’ll primarily be looking for house sitting opportunities closer to Angier/Lillington. However, I’m happy to travel farther for longer stays! **After November 20:** I’ll have open availability throughout December and the holidays. **Dog Walks & Drop-In Visits** **Through October 7:** Available Friday–Sunday all day, as well as evenings Monday–Thursday. **October 8–26:** Open availability every day! **October 27–November 20:** Available Monday–Friday in the evenings and Saturday–Sunday all day. I’ll be completing clinicals in the Lillington area during the weekdays, so weekday requests closer to Angier/Lillington are preferred. **After November 20:** Open availability throughout December and the holidays! I know how scary it can be to have someone you don’t know stay in your home and care for your pet. That’s why it’s really important to me to build a relationship and trust with my clients, so it doesn’t feel like a stranger is in your home. I’ll make sure your pet and your home are in the best care possible while you’re away, and I have a feeling your pet and I will become best friends by the time you get back! I absolutely love sending pictures and updates, so you’ll never have to wonder how your pet is doing while you’re gone! If you’re someone who doesn’t need as many updates, that’s completely fine too. I’m happy to send them as often or as little as you’d like. I also make sure to check my phone regularly while house sitting, so you’ll always be able to reach me if you need anything. I’m someone who actually loves detailed instructions because they help me make sure I’m doing everything exactly how your pet is used to. I want to keep their normal routine as much as possible while you’re away. I’m also a bit of a neat freak, so you may come home to your house looking a little cleaner than when you left it!
“Lauren was great! She was communicative, on time, very sweet, and Panda took to her immediately. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her good hands. (And I am overprotective). She walked Panda and played with her, sending me pictures. I recommend Lauren!”
About: Have owned my own dogs and cats over the years. As they've grown older and passed on, I have satisfied my love for animals by caring for my kids' pets when they go on vacation. I've gone to their house and stayed, but also they have stayed in my home while mom and dad are away. We go for walks, and I have a fenced in yard and doggy door them to come and go as they please. Like my grandkids: I love having them and playing, but I also love the flexibility of sending them back to mom and dad! I am a retired teacher and am home most days.

But most of the dogs come inside. They are free to go out to play and do their business.
About: I've had dogs for over 15 years and a cat for almost 10 years and love taking care of them. I currently have 1 older cat living with me and he is very kept to himself. He's a sweet little guy who isn't bothered by other animals as long as they don't bother him! My availability is any time between classes which are scattered throughout my week. This is a small part time job I've taken for fun while going through my medical school journey so I spend most of my time studying. However, I will happily take your pet to a nice study spot! I'd also love to spend my study breaks on walks or runs with your furry baby! I am very flexible with timing and cancellations. Though I don't have professional experience, I have been around animals all my life. I'm very good at following directions and love learning new things. If the dog has special necessities, I am willing to accommodate. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a student. I often take dogs with me to quiet, dog‑friendly study spots, and I use my study breaks for walks, playtime, or runs. Because my class schedule is scattered, I’m very flexible throughout the week and can adjust care times as needed. Spending time with pets is a fun and refreshing part of my day. I care for pets by sticking closely to their regular routine and following all instructions for feeding, walks, meds, and special needs. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort through walks, playtime, or relaxed hang‑out time. In my home, I have one older cat who mostly keeps to himself and does well around other animals as long as they don’t bother him. If needed, he can be comfortably kept separate in a bedroom he’s used to. I always aim to keep things calm, clean, and stress‑free for both pets and owners.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life—often caring for more than one at a time—so daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and recognizing behavior patterns are second nature to me. I also have experience caring for cats and small animals, and I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and personality. I’m very detail-oriented and take the time to follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s specific feeding instructions, medication schedules, preferred walking routes, or favorite toys and habits. I understand that consistency is what helps pets feel safe and at ease, especially when their owners are away. You can expect thoughtful, reliable care and consistent updates so you always know how your pet is doing. As a teacher, I have expanded availability during the summer and can take on additional bookings during that time. Currently, I offer evening and weekend availability and do my best to accommodate schedules with advance notice. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog in my home who gets along well with others; however, I always introduce pets gradually and will keep my dog separated or crated as needed until everyone is fully comfortable. Pets in my care receive regular leash walks, plenty of playtime, and mental stimulation to keep them happy and engaged. I follow all routines and instructions closely and am happy to accommodate any specific requests to make sure your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for friends and family for the past 4 years. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I genuinely love spending time with animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, so my availability varies during the week. I work full days on Fridays, but outside of that I’m flexible. I always follow your care instructions, keep a clean and secure environment, and make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of love.
About: I am a very caring person who loves all animals. I have raised dogs since I was 10 years old and have also helped raise my sister’s cats. I love to give all pets the love and attention they deserve. I can house sit, walk, check in, bathe, or whatever you may need to help care for your pet. I work from home most of the time so I can be flexible to you and your fur baby’s needs. I have raised dogs of pretty much any size so no dog scares me. I can’t wait to meet your sweet pets! I work from home 3-4 days a week so I am pretty flexible when it comes to taking care of your pet. I can work weekdays or weekends, days or nights. I take care of pets by trying to give them the same love and attention as they would get from you. I try to make them feel comfortable and right at home as much as possible.
About: I’ve had dogs of every size since I was 7. I’ve raised 3 dogs from puppies. Friends and family rely on my to sit, walk, and wash their dogs. I love cats and have had cats in the past. I work from home most days so I am available all day. I work from home most days so I can be with your dogs most of the time. I can house sit, walk, bathe, or whatever you need. I can let your dogs out as much as you want/need. My work schedule allows me to walk and care for your pets as needed.
About: Friendly, Reliable Pet Sitter I’ve loved animals my whole life and have always had dogs and cats as part of my family. I’ve also lived with roommates’ dogs and cats, so I’m comfortable caring for pets with all kinds of personalities and routines. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—whether that means going for walks, playing in the yard, giving plenty of attention and cuddles, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I’m also comfortable helping with oral medications when needed. Beyond pet care, I’m happy to help with small things around your home while you’re away, such as watering plants or gardens and taking out the trash. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets—and your home—are in good hands! 🐾
About: I have a wonderful 1 acre backyard that is loved and cherished by all doggies, my own dogs and visiting doggie friends! Lots of wide open spaces for fetching balls or toys! I have a very flexible pet care schedule. I am at home 7 days a week and can board your dog(s) in my home for up to 2 continuous weeks, with advance notice. My backyard is safe, with a large flat open space for all types of dogs. I also have multiple outdoor decks that overlook my backyard and allows me to keep an eye on any doggie shenanigans!
About: Been watching dogs since I was in high school. My neighbors, friends and family rely on me to watch their dogs whenever they’re away on vacation anywhere from weekend trip to multiple weeks away. I’m currently working part time so, I have plenty of time to check in on your pups! Currently available Mondays, Wednesday, Fridays any time. On Saturdays anytime after 2pm Have a dog to keep your fur baby company! She’s an older dog but loves to play chase in the backyard. If needed can put pup in crate.
About: My connection with fur babies runs deep. I have, often, felt more connected to animals than humans. I believe we all have had animals that we love but, usually, there is one animal that changes everything. You know the one I’m talking about….the one that the connection is (or was), somehow, different or deeper than the others. I call those animals Familiars. Maybe that resonates with you too. Either way, I fully grasp that trusting someone to take care of your fur baby is not just a big deal but, it is a privilege for someone to experience. I have thirteen years of experience taking care of different animals. This includes administering medications, providing senior/end-of-life care (I have a soft spot for the elderly), and learning to understand the language in which animals speak. I, also, have experience rescuing, fostering, and re-homing Australian Shepards. I believe in respect, safety, connection, and consent when it comes to animals. I believe that all animals come into this world to help heal us and I just want to be able to give back (in whatever way I can) a small piece of what they gift me, every day. It would be such an honor to help get to take care of, work WITH, and get to know your little (or big) ball of fur. As an Artist/Creator, my schedule is more flexible than most people. When planned in advance, I have ample time to make sure your fur babies are safe, happy, and healthy when you cannot be there! I ask a lot of questions so I can know and understand the specifics of what each animal needs. My primary goal is to make sure the interaction is safe, for both me and your fur baby. Then, it is my job to ensure your animal is comfortable, content, and they have a good time! I believe this can only happen by working with the owners (and then, with the fur babies).

“Andrea did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Kona. We were away for 17 days and needed a loving family to taker her in rather than a kennel. Her previous reviews all lived up to their marks. Andrea is knowledgeable and attentive to dog personalities and was able to help our girl transition into a good routine with lots of love and exercise. Having our dog sleep in her own bed each night (with her blankie!) made it much easier to be away. I received pictures or text communication almost everyday. I couldn't have been happier and will definitely use Andrea's services again. I highly recommend.”
