“Had a wonderful experience with boarding. Oakley came home so exhausted. Will definately use again. They were very communicative through entire boarding with rapid responses and treated my baby as one of their own.”
“Natalie was very communicative and took great care of charlie, she gave clear instructions and made the drop off/pick up experience very smooth. I can tell charlie had lots of fun with Natalie and other dogs that were there, defenitly will rebook again and refer to others.”
“We are very thankful for Brittany and her willingness to keep our pup! She was very responsive and ensured I had regular updates and pics while we were on our trip. Look forward to booking with her in the future!”
“Amy is a very nice and approachable person and really knows her stuff when it comes to dogs I must say, having lots of them at home herself. I was very pleased with the care she puts towards axle. I would really recommend her if you’re going on vacation to leave your pups in her care, you won’t regret it promise. Every time I texted her to check on my pup she answer almost immediately and told me everything was fine. 5 stars for her and thanks Amy for your work.”
“Madison could not have been sweeter and sent me so many photos of my dog throughout her stay. She played ball with Ula, took her for many walks, and snuggled with her. She probably had more fun than she does at home! I will definitely use Madison again for our pet sitting needs.”
“Super friendly and great with Yoolee! We have used her on 2 overnight occasions with 1 being short notice and she has always been very accommodating and responsive. We highly recommend Katie.”
“Kendra was very accommodating for our last minute changes and health concerns for our dog. She was very good to our goods - they were very happy when we picked them up so I know they were well taken care of during their stay.”
“We had such a great experience! She took amazing care of both of our dogs and treated them like they were her own. She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well loved. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter!”
“I can't say enough positive things about my and my pup's experience with Brad. 1. Booking/Communication - From the initial booking, Brad was communicative and responsive ensuring that I would feel comfortable even before I dropped my pup off. 2. Drop off - At drop-off, Brad was extremely attentive to understand the unique needs of my pup especially as it pertained to his medication. In my moving around, I forgot to bring something my pup needed. Brad was extremely helpful in getting it resolved so that my pup's stay would be just fine. Additionally, Brad went out of his way to ask how, and what frequency, I wanted to be updated on my pup's stay. 3. Stay - My pup had a fantastic time staying with Brad and having pup siblings at Brad's house. I'm confident of this not only because, true to his word, Brad was not only communicative about what was going on each day (for the entire ~3wk stay), but he also sent pictures and videos with funny notes! I could see that my dog was active not only outside but inside the home, was playing well with the other dogs, and was being loved and snuggled daily. 4. Pick-up - The day of pick-up, my flight was delayed impacting my ability to pick-up my pup on time. Brad was completely understanding and was communicative to ensure that I had no worries. When I arrived to pick up my pup, all of the things I sent with my pup came home in great condition AND Brad sent me home with a treat that he had graciously been giving my pup as well! I could tell my pup was excited to go home but was sad to leave Brad and his new friends! Overall, we will DEFINITELY use Brad again and recommend him to anyone that is looking for someone to treat their pup like family when they have to go away. Thanks again, Brad!”
“Nicole was great with my goldendoodle Kingston. She kept me updated from the time I left, and each day after. She sent me photos of him playing with her two dogs, and a German Shepard that was there one day on a play date. Kingston was well cared for, and judging from the photos he had a ball while there. He was able to run and play in Nicole's hugh backyard,and Kingston also had a dedicated room in her house to nap/sleep. Nicole is a fantasic sitter and I could tell that she loves dogs. I would definitely reommend her services if you need a dog sitter.”
About: We both grew up on farms and have been surrounded by animals of all kinds—from livestock to household pets—for our entire lives. Caring for animals is second nature to us. I personally trained our 8-month-old Golden Retriever, Charlie, using positive reinforcement techniques, so we are very familiar with dog behavior, setting healthy routines, and maintaining positive play etiquette. We are also fully comfortable administering oral or topical medications on strict schedules. We welcome friendly, house-trained dogs looking for a safe, active, and experienced home-away-from-home! Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine! One of us works full-time from home while the other works short 4-hour shifts, meaning your dog will enjoy near-constant human presence, regular bathroom breaks, and constant supervision. While someone is home the vast majority of the time, we may occasionally step out for short errands or dinner (1 to 3 hours). During these brief periods, guest dogs are kept safe and comfortable indoors alongside Charlie. We live in a quiet, planned community with a 4-foot fully fenced backyard where dogs can run freely and play fetch safely in shaded grass. Guest dogs are treated like family and are welcome to relax on our covered couches for post-play naps. We take daily 15-20 minute neighborhood walks and often visit local spots like Martha Rivers Park on weekends. To ensure complete safety, we always require a Meet & Greet prior to booking to confirm temperaments align smoothly.
“Jennifer was fantastic with my dog Cody. She sent pictures and videos daily and messages letting me know how he was doing. Cody hasn’t done well in boarding environments. On the way home from Jennifer’s he was calm and content. He also became buddies with her dog Milo. I will certainly be taking Cody back to Jennifer!”
“Kimberly was great, she takes very good care of the animals and is really good about sharing pictures and keeping you up to date. She kept the dogs engaged with plenty of interaction. Highly recommended!”
“Thank you so much Ashley. Once again you provided best care for our pita while we are out of town . We keep working with you again and again . Love from our family to you 🤗”
“Leigh is the furfect sitter for our boy! She is incredibly flexible and responds to messages right away. Our original pet sitter canceled on the day of our booking, and we had to find someone last minute. We’re so thankful that Leigh replied immediately and was able to help us out. From the moment our boy arrived at her place, he felt comfortable and happy and he didn’t hesitate at all to start playing in her yard, which really showed us what a kind and welcoming person she is. Leigh kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed the schedule we provided perfectly and made sure he got lots of playtime and attention. Knowing that our boy was having fun and being well cared for made us feel completely at ease. We would absolutely book Leigh again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!”

About: I have a 2 legged cat and I’ve had him since he was a baby. He requires a little extra care every day and it’s so worth it. Every night he lays on my lap and makes biscuits and I enjoy every minute of it. I’ve decided to pet sit full time and enjoy loving on as many animals as long as I can. I have several animals of my own, cats and dogs. What better way to make money doing what you love ❤️ I clean out my cat boxes twice a day. After they are fed in the evenings I play with my cats for a while. I put my dogs outside in my fenced in yard to go potty and then I play ball with them. My doodles favorite thing to do! Then I bring them in the house to eat and cuddle on the couch.

About: I had a dog when I was younger and I loved him and taught him tricks. I also have 7 cats who I love so much. I work during the week. I have a big yard, however it's not fenced in. I could take your dog out on a leash so they are safe from other animals and the road. I also live in walking distance to the Harmony Trail in Shelby, NC.

“Madison could not have been sweeter and sent me so many photos of my dog throughout her stay. She played ball with Ula, took her for many walks, and snuggled with her. She probably had more fun than she does at home! I will definitely use Madison again for our pet sitting needs.”

“Leigh is the furfect sitter for our boy! She is incredibly flexible and responds to messages right away. Our original pet sitter canceled on the day of our booking, and we had to find someone last minute. We’re so thankful that Leigh replied immediately and was able to help us out. From the moment our boy arrived at her place, he felt comfortable and happy and he didn’t hesitate at all to start playing in her yard, which really showed us what a kind and welcoming person she is. Leigh kept us updated with plenty of pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed the schedule we provided perfectly and made sure he got lots of playtime and attention. Knowing that our boy was having fun and being well cared for made us feel completely at ease. We would absolutely book Leigh again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!”

“Cosmo had a few of his happiest days with Jessica, Doug and their family. He bonded with their pups and got to play chase and football on their spacious property. He’s already asking to hang out with Sky and George, their two pups, again! Jessica and Doug went out of their way to keep me updated with pictures. I felt at ease the whole time.”
“William is a very friendly guy, animal lover. He took care of my dog for a few days and make my dog feel like he was home. My dog enjoyed his stay and was taken care during his stay. William was very communicative. I definitely recommend him, and I know I will book with him again on my next trip. ☺️🐶”
