“"We had such a wonderful experience with Robert and his family. From the moment Brinkley arrived, they made him feel comfortable and loved. Robert sent thoughtful daily updates with photos, letting us know how Brinkley was eating, sleeping, and spending his day — which meant the world to us. What stood out most was the genuine care and extra one‑on‑one time Robert gave him. Brinkley came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust Robert with Brinkley again.””
“Desi is the best. We did not expect Zorel to delivery her puppies early and Desi help delivery them until we came later. If you want a caring sitter and good dog person, I recommend Desi.”
“Jerry was amazing and took excellent care of Raya. He even celebrated her first birthday with a pup cup and doggy cookies! I very much appreciated the updates and pictures of how she was doing. Highly recommend Jerry!”
“Taylor took great care of our 17 year old senior pup. She has an array of age-related needs, and he made sure she was comfortable, eating regularly, and getting outside...and all of those things are challenging for her at this point. I would highly recommend him!”
“I was very pleased with my dog sitting experience with Kate! I wanted to find a local dog sitter that was reputable and nice. Kate was great! She treated my dog as if he was one of her own. I was very pleased and will definitely have her watch him again! I would recommend her to anyone :) Thank you Kate!”
“Angela is amazing!!! She took great care of Lexi and kept us informed on her daily activities. Sent lots of pictures which we truly appreciated. We will definitely go back, I would highly recommend Angela.”
“Ollie had a great stay with Yueqian and her family. I knew how great a time Ollie had when I saw how much she didn’t want to go home with me. Will definitely trust Yueqian again with Ollie in the future.”
“Sue-Ling was amazing with my pup. It was his first time ever being boarded away from me and she kept me updated on him and how he was doing. She was very attentive. I will be booking with her again!”
“This was our first time boarding with Tasha and we are very happy with how everything turned out! She was very sweet and caring for Benji and she really listened to the notes and info we provided for him. She was able to accommodate for him to fully enjoy his stay. We would definitely recommend for any puppy parents!”
“Stephanie was very kind, communicated every day, and treated my dog well. She took my dog on long walks, sent pics, and cared for my dog while I was gone. I will definitely book with Stephanie again!”
“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”
“Helena and her husband were wonderful to work with - kind and extremely flexible with drop off and pick up times. They live in a very nice community with lots of places for shady walks. Buddy had his own loveseat by the front door which he could lay on and look outside or at Helena and her husband in the kitchen or sitting room of their open plan home. I received regular updates and photos of Buddy in what really was a home away from home. From the initial meeting when I went to drop Buddy off, I knew he was in great hands. I would definitely have Buddy stay with Helena again and recommend her to anyone looking for an attentive loving couple to take care of you ‘fur baby’!!”
“Hilary took such great care of our girl! Sadie has a lot of quirks and takes time to warm up and Hilary was patient and understanding. I had a lot of peace of mind while we were away on our trip knowing she was well taken care of!”
“Carey was the absolute best dog sitter I could ever ask for!! She was so so helpful and patient and made me feel so at ease taking care of my high-energy German Shepherd, Lady. It’s always a bit nerve-racking to leave your dog with someone new, and especially so when your dog is a handful like my Lady! But Carey truly went above and beyond my expectations, and even when Lady had some frustrating anxiety issues, Carey took care of it without complaint, which seriously meant the world to me. She also sent me lots of photos every day and kept me super updated!! Book Carey for your next dog sitter and you will be so glad you did!!”
“Our dogs’ 4th stay with Steven and family. They will always be our first choice! We continue to be amazed by them. They provide a great environment and I am sure our dogs absolutely love the attention from the children. They take excellent care and provide continuous photo updates throughout the stay. We feel very fortunate to have found Steven and family and are also grateful that they genuinely enjoy watching our dogs. We can tell that our dogs also enjoy them.”
“Kimberly and her family took amazing care of my little old pup. Gave him love and snuggles sent updated photos to us the whole time we were away. What an incredible experience. We will absolutely be using Kimberly as our sitter again!”
“Donna and Calvin are wonderful. I didn’t think there would be anywhere that we could leave our pup while we were away that I wouldn’t constantly be fretting over her. Well, Donna and Calvin proved me wrong. I can’t imagine that we could have found better care for our little dog. They are the best!”

About: Hello! I have grown up with more pets than people in my household, and that has served me well. I am capable of handling multiple dogs on walks (there’s nothing more comical than juggling multiple leashes) and caring for both cats and dogs. I was an assistant in therapy dog training and puppy training for four years (Teamworks in Raleigh), and this has provided me with cognitive and behavioral insight into dogs. I also have taken care of dogs around my neighborhood growing up. My philosophy with pets is that they make the owner feel better and vice versa. I promise to take care of your pets as I would my own: with love, respect, and as much exercise as they deserve. I look forward to working with you. I work full time remotely, so have flexibility to take care of your pet’s needs. My weekend availability varies but my calendar will be up to date. I will take care of your pet in your home, where they will be most comfortable. I am also available for drop-ins, or walks while you are at work, or other non-stay related activities.
About: I have house sat cats a lot even had some experience with watching over outdoor cats around my neighborhood. I have taken care of a lot of neighbors cats and family’s cats, I just love being around them and enjoy learning their quirks!

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was about 5 or 6 ! To neighborhood cats to friend cats . I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is the level of attention and care I give each cat as an individual. I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and what makes them comfortable, since cats can be very particular about their environment and people. I’m patient with shy cats, playful with energetic ones, and always make sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their cat is being well cared for. My goal is to make every cat feel like they’re still in their normal routine and getting the same love and attention they would from their owner
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have always been actively involved in their care back home. While in college, I’ve also helped care for pets for friends and others, including walking, feeding, and pet sitting. I’m comfortable with all types of pets and always focus on keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for!! As a college student home for the summer, I have almost completely open availability to dedicate to pet care each day. I'll be more than happy to dedicate my days to waking, feeding, and keeping your pet company, as well as anything in-between thats required. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keeping that familiarity in their own home. The home will stay up to par while doing all my pet care with remembering to keep you updated as much as you need.
“Rebecca was wonderful with our cat Constantine. When Constantine was shy she helped her come out of hiding and explore her surroundings. Rebecca made sure Constantine felt safe in her home and provided her loving care while we were away.”
“Bridgette has been very reliable and has been flexible when I needed to change a booking last minute. My dog Roscoe can be very fearful at times and he liked her immediately!”
“Allie was great with our lab. She was very accommodating with our schedule and spent an hour walking and hanging out with Tilly while we were out. We highly recommend Allie if you are in the Carolina Beach area!”
About: Did you know walking, caring for and loving on a pet can spark creativity? I am a writer with a lifetime of pet ownership who would be honored to take care of your fur babies (and find some inspiration in the process!). I have just returned to the corporate world (it’s a fully remote role) from a traveling sabbatical writing several passion projects. My schedule is still quite flexible and my ability to travel to you quite easy. I understand maintaining your pet’s routine while you’re away is essential to minimizing their anxiety (and yours!). I have a large SUV if your dogs require transportation (like a trip to a favorite dog park or have a regularly scheduled play date or grooming appointment).
“Mel was such a treasure to have! She was so good with my special needs cats and they warmed up to her with ease! I would highly recommend using her and would have no problem booking her again!”
“Emily did an amazing job with out 2 cats and took very good care of them. The food and water was resupplied as needed and the litter box was well maintained. Thank you for you help and we will definitely use you again!”

“Desi was able to dog sit at her place near Boone on very short notice allowing me to attend a non dog friendly event. My dog had a great time exploring the property and meeting other friendly dogs. I would definitely work with Desi again as she is prompt, has clear availability and clearly loves dogs!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs pretty much my whole life ! I absolutely love dogs!! The level of care and attention I give to every dog as if they were my own. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine so they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just giving them companionship, I make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m patient, reliable, and always keep owners updated so they have peace of mind knowing their dog is in good hands. Pet care is just part of my normal routine. I have a dog and a bearded dragon, so every day I make sure my dog gets fed, let out , she has a electric collar so she knows where not to go , and has some playtime, and I take care of my bearded dragon, feeding and tank setup. On the days I work Friday through Monday, i also take my bearded dragon out on my lunch and feed him, I plan ahead so they’re taken care of before I leave and when I get home. It’s something I stay pretty consistent with. I make sure each pet’s routine stays as normal as possible. In my home, I keep a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and cleaning. I have experience caring for my own dog and bearded dragon, so I’m used to different types of pet needs, including exercise, feeding schedules, and habitat care. In a client’s home, I follow the instructions they provide closely,making sure pets are fed on time, walked or exercised, given attention, and that their living space stays clean and safe. I also make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away!

I also think it’s helpful (in my experience) to receive pictures of your pet(s) while away - that’s always helped me, so I tend to do the same and send updates and pictures to the families of the dog/cat as well. I currently work from home and have flexibility throughout the day. I already have walks planned into my day and live in a neighborhood that’s easily walkable! I have a fenced in yard if your dog prefers staying outdoors or going out for potty breaks. I also have the space to crate if needed.

“"We had such a wonderful experience with Robert and his family. From the moment Brinkley arrived, they made him feel comfortable and loved. Robert sent thoughtful daily updates with photos, letting us know how Brinkley was eating, sleeping, and spending his day — which meant the world to us. What stood out most was the genuine care and extra one‑on‑one time Robert gave him. Brinkley came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust Robert with Brinkley again.””
“Desi is the best. We did not expect Zorel to delivery her puppies early and Desi help delivery them until we came later. If you want a caring sitter and good dog person, I recommend Desi.”
“I was very pleased with my dog sitting experience with Kate! I wanted to find a local dog sitter that was reputable and nice. Kate was great! She treated my dog as if he was one of her own. I was very pleased and will definitely have her watch him again! I would recommend her to anyone :) Thank you Kate!”
“Ollie had a great stay with Yueqian and her family. I knew how great a time Ollie had when I saw how much she didn’t want to go home with me. Will definitely trust Yueqian again with Ollie in the future.”
“This was our first time boarding with Tasha and we are very happy with how everything turned out! She was very sweet and caring for Benji and she really listened to the notes and info we provided for him. She was able to accommodate for him to fully enjoy his stay. We would definitely recommend for any puppy parents!”
“Stephanie was very kind, communicated every day, and treated my dog well. She took my dog on long walks, sent pics, and cared for my dog while I was gone. I will definitely book with Stephanie again!”
“Mia was amazing with my anxious dog Reya! She was very communicative, took great care of her, and sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would recommend Mia to anyone!”
“Hilary took such great care of our girl! Sadie has a lot of quirks and takes time to warm up and Hilary was patient and understanding. I had a lot of peace of mind while we were away on our trip knowing she was well taken care of!”
“Carey was the absolute best dog sitter I could ever ask for!! She was so so helpful and patient and made me feel so at ease taking care of my high-energy German Shepherd, Lady. It’s always a bit nerve-racking to leave your dog with someone new, and especially so when your dog is a handful like my Lady! But Carey truly went above and beyond my expectations, and even when Lady had some frustrating anxiety issues, Carey took care of it without complaint, which seriously meant the world to me. She also sent me lots of photos every day and kept me super updated!! Book Carey for your next dog sitter and you will be so glad you did!!”
“Our dogs’ 4th stay with Steven and family. They will always be our first choice! We continue to be amazed by them. They provide a great environment and I am sure our dogs absolutely love the attention from the children. They take excellent care and provide continuous photo updates throughout the stay. We feel very fortunate to have found Steven and family and are also grateful that they genuinely enjoy watching our dogs. We can tell that our dogs also enjoy them.”
“Kimberly and her family took amazing care of my little old pup. Gave him love and snuggles sent updated photos to us the whole time we were away. What an incredible experience. We will absolutely be using Kimberly as our sitter again!”
“Clare is wonderful! She has such an adorable and sweet family She sent lots of pictures and updates. I couldn’t have asked for a better fit to care of our pup while we traveled.”
“Andrew and Erin, I’ve been the best pet sitters we could ask for! Our little multi-Pooh, Chloe, absolutely loves them, and has a great time with them! They are very communicative, kind and send lots of pictures and updates. It makes leaving her so much easier knowing that she’s having a great time while I’m gone.”
“Andrea was awesome. She sent me pictures of how Hoover was doing and was very flexible. He had a great time playing with her other dogs and her son too! He is very exhausted!!!”
“Lauren took great care of our 11-year-old lab/hound mix. Her dog and my dog got along well. Lauren sent updates once a day which was greatly appreciated. I highly recommend. We will reach out again when we are in Wilmington area.”
“Bella was immediately comfortable with Jennifer, and Jennifer was equally at ease with our large dog. Jennifer continually sent updates and pictures during our time away, making our time more relaxed. It was clear that Bella had a good time. Thank you Jennifer for taking such good care of our baby!”
“This was the first time having to leave my dog with a sitter so I was apprehensive but didn’t have a choice. Sarah was fantastic! She would provide updates and send pictures. I thought my dog adopted a new family and wouldn’t want to come home (thankfully he did)! I would certainly go back to Sarah if I needed dog sitting services again!”
