“Nikki Grace was spoiled and treated like an absolute queen. This was the perfect set up for her. Larry and Pam were friendly, attentive, and kept us well informed with pictures, videos, and texts updates daily. I recommend them to anyone who wants to know their fur baby is in good hands! I know ours little fur baby will be staying with them again❤️?”
“Oh my God. Chantel is the best. We had never been separated from our Dog since we got her in November 2023. She did a great job caring for our baby girl for 6 days while we were away. She kept us informed of how she was doing and shared videos of her the entire time we were away. She is truly an amazing and gentle pet lover. We would highly recommend her to care for your pets when needed. We would definitely give her a 5 Star rating 😉 Thanks so much Chantel and family for loving our baby girl while we were away.”
“Connie was a fantastic sitter for our dear Zoe over the Thanksgiving holiday! She provided photos and updates, which was nice to see while we missed her. Thanks again Connie for your great care of our precious girl! We'll see you again soon!!”
“Kimberley was excellent! Tika had an amazing time and played with Kimberley’s fur babies during her stay. Kimberley kept me consistently updates on Tika’s stay and provided many pictures (one of which will become an 8x10 on the wall at home) I am very much appreciative of Kimberley’s service and would definitely recommend her for anyone’s pet. Thank you again Kimberley!!!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my boys received! Casey kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My boys came home happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Casey to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Leonardo was amazing with my large breed dog, Jill, on a last-minute booking! He was super responsive, kind, and clearly great with big dogs. Jill loved him right away and came back happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Shilo loved his stay, he really respected her. She is an amazing sitter I would recommend her to anyone. I was really thankful she took him last minute. We will definitely come back to her in the future.”
“This was my first time hiring a sitter (new pet), so I didn't know how it would work or how things would go. To my delight, the process was simple and easy. Now onto the sitter--Jacqueline was outstanding. She kept my cat/kitten (grown lil boy, "Mr") from Thur-Sun. She sent pics of him daily and let me know how he was doing, what he was eating, etc. She brought up no issues with him during his visit with her. I felt at peace seeing the pics (especially the first day) of him and knew he was safe and happy. I'm glad I chose Jacqueline and encourage anyone who's on the fence about getting a sitter, to try Jacqueline....I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Thank you Jacqueline A....”
“Wow, what a great experience! Both Cassandra and her husband are great with dogs, their kids are great with dogs, and their dogs are great with dogs! I have a two-year-old lab who is still very much a puppy, and this wonderful family was able to handle her beautifully. They made her part of the family in every way. I'm so pleased.”
“Lisa & her family (and their own dog) are absolutely amazing! They watched our dogs for 2 weeks and I could easily see how happy George & Angus were. I'm always worried about people watching our dogs as they can be a handful, but they seamlessly blended in to Lisa home and family like they'd always been there. The whole family are clearly very experienced with dogs as they taught our boys a few commands to make feedings, etc. easier and took everything else in stride. They have a nice big grassy back yard where the dogs could get play and get their energy out. I absolutely will not hesitate to reach out to Lisa again as I can't recommend her highly enough.”
“I had an amazing experience with Branden and Nikkishae! From the start, communication was great and I felt completely comfortable leaving my puppy in their care. They were patient, attentive, and clearly have a natural love for animals. My puppy was well taken care of, and I could tell he felt safe and comfortable the entire time. They kept me updated and made the whole process stress-free for me, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be a returning customer and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to watch their pet. They are officially my go-to pet sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with them again.”
“Rena P provided exceptional care for my dog. She is incredibly caring, energetic, and professional. We received consistent updates and photos throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. It’s rare to find someone you trust implicitly with your pet, but Rena P is definitely that person!"”
“Joanne was such a lucky find for us! We feel so grateful to have found such a caring, kind and unbelievably calm person to leave our pups with on some long vacations we had planned. We were nervous about finding a way to help them feel comfortable with us gone for so long and Joanne's place with room for them to run was exactly what they needed! They've been more calm and well mannered since we've returned from our trip and I can't thank Joanne enough for all she did for our sweet pups! She sent pictures and a update everyday and it was so wonderful to see how much fun they were having a doggie summer camp! We will use her over and over again!”
“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
About: I provide experienced, in-home pet care with a calm, structured environment — not a crowded kennel. I focus on personalized attention, routines, and making each dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable like they’re at home. I structure my daily and weekly schedule around pet care, allowing me to be present throughout the day. This ensures consistent routines, regular check-ins, and personalized attention for every pet. I care for pets using a structured, supervised setup. I have multiple indoor kennels for comfort and safety, a fully fenced backyard with outdoor kennels for supervised play and fresh air, and a climate-controlled shed for temperature-safe rest and rotation. Pets are never left unsupervised, and I rotate time between indoor comfort, outdoor activity, and rest to ensure safety, cleanliness, and individualized care.
“Leaving our first-born fur baby with someone else for the first time was a big deal for us, but Pam made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely cares for the dogs in her care. Throughout our girl’s stay, Pam kept us updated and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and loved. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our sweet girl was being treated like part of the family rather than just being boarded. When we picked her up, she was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. That meant the world to us. We are so grateful to Pam for her kindness, attentiveness, and the love she showed our first-born fur baby. We highly recommend Pam to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. Thank you, Pam, for taking such wonderful care of our girl—we will definitely be back!”
“Michel was wonderful with our dog, Tucker! She was super responsive, sent updates and pictures throughout the stay, and made us feel completely at ease leaving him overnight. Tucker looked happy and comfortable the entire time. We’ll definitely be booking with her again, highly recommend!”
“Jessie D and family were awesome. They really treated Tank like a VIP. They have an amazing yard and there two dogs accepted Tank and played with him nonstop. We will be bringing him back whenever we have a need to board Tank again. Thanks Jessie!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dogs received! From the very beginning Kimberly was excellent with communication and reassuring that my pups were in good hands. She regularly updated me with photos during the stay that gave me a peace of mind.”

“Virginia was so great! She sent so many pics and really spent time with our cats while she was here. Her being our rover sitter made going away so much less stressful. I will have Virginia watch my cats again any time we will be gone. So lucky we found her!”
“Sandy took great care of my kittens while I was gone. She was on time everyday. The boys had a lot of fun playing with her during the visits. Sandy usually takes care of dogs, but I can also recommend her for cats.”
“Nancy is the BEST!!!!! She takes great care of our 2 cats and takes a bunch of pictures for me! She also brings in our mail and watered my plant! I’ve been booking her any time I need a sitter and will continue to do so! Thank you for all you do Nancy!!!”
“Alexis did a great job of caring for our kitties, Nala and Adelaide, while we were away for a week. Although Alexis had never been to our home, she easily followed the provided directions to ensure that our girls had clean litter and fresh water, and that our home was secure. She was very professional in communications as well. We will look forward to hiring her for future trips.”
“Margaret did a wonderful job dropping in on our cat while we were out of town. She was awesome at communicating and keeping us informed of what was going on and sent very cute pictures of him while we were away.”
About: I have grown up with all different kinds of pets. Along with watching friends pets, I have worked for companies such as United Paws and Wag. I can do early mornings and evenings, I am in the military so that takes up my time from 9-1700. I do have Saturdays and Sundays off. I will care for the pets as if they are my own. Lots of love and playing and treats if permitted. Pet deserve full attention and that is what they will get.
“Grace was great!! She came by as scheduled and communicated with us daily with pictures and messages! I think by the end of the week she had a couple of new kitty BFFs! We will definitely use her again!!”

About: My wife and I have always through the years had some variety of dogs and cats, male and female. Small and not so small 😊At times even birds, rabbits and Guinea pigs. We have taken care of my our grand dogs and grand kitties. We have chosen not to have our own animals friends in this season of our life because of the freedom it gives us to visit our children , grandchildren and great grandchildren we have in different states now. But feel we would enjoy helping others with their friends in our retirement. Our yard has a white picket fence and is a decent size for someone to run around in, but it is not completely fenced in. We are retired. We do not have any daily obligations anywhere. We go to church and we visit our children out of state on some of the holidays. Of course we would keep a close eye on them and see that they have water and ther food and a place to rest and as many potty breaks as needed. Also feel like they should be able to get the exercise they need with fresh air outside. Between a porch and deck that they can enjoy with us. Walking with a lease around the yard and their lease attached to an outside chain for their individual walking/running 😊
About: I have loved animals all my life and have had pets in the home since I was born. I first started babysitting others pets while their owners were on Leave or TDY starting in the 3rd grade. I have a very large fenced in back yard with plenty of grass for your pet to run and play. While your pet is in my care, they will be given plenty of potty breaks, exercise and play time. I will send you pictures and brief updates throughout their stay to put your mind at ease. I have extensive experience dealing with senior pets who need medications and who need special care due to specific medical ailments. Your pet will always be treated as my family. They will get hugs and kisses, too! Please don't let my address in Wade deter you...I am only 8 miles from Ramsey Street!! For safety reasons, we cannot take care of Pitt Bulls or any pet that is aggressive. If it is the first time caring for your pet, I will ask to do a Meet and Greet so we can all meet one another to ensure our pets will all get along. I work remotely from home so your pet will rarely be left alone. I have two dogs of my own, so your pet will have plenty of company to play with. Since I do work from home, I am able to provide plenty of potty breaks and time to go outside in the yard to run and play. I have a very large fenced in yard that is all grass and very clean providing your pet plenty of room to run and play or just time to walk around the yard and explore. I will never leave your pet outside alone. Either my husband or I will be with them the entire time. While inside the house, they will have full access to clean water, plenty of toys and soft dog beds, all in our very clean home. If I am dropping in on your pet in your home, you can rest assured that I will be on time for the visit, take them to potty, and give them plenty of love. I will be very respectful of your home and only go in the areas needed for me to do the visit. For safety reason, I will not be able to watch Pitt Bulls or pets that are aggressive in any way. Please let me know if your dog can jump or climb fences, or is an escape artist.
About: I bring four decades of hands-on experience to every dog I train and pet I care for. Since 2015, I’ve successfully competed with my own dogs in a variety of canine sports, giving me a deep understanding of how to build skills, confidence, and a strong bond between pets and their people. Beyond formal training, I’ve volunteered at our local animal control, working with animals from all walks of life and temperaments. Over the years I’ve raised and cared for dogs, cats, multiple species of birds, and even a snake—broadening my expertise with different behaviors, needs, and personalities. This combination of professional experience, volunteer service, and lifelong animal care allows me to offer patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate training and pet sitting that owners can trust. I am currently available during the week and most weekends to care for your pets; this includes drop in visits, walks and even training sessions. Safety of the pets in my care is of the utmost importance, whether I care for them in the client’s home, I am boarding them in my home or walking them in public. I will abide by city, county and state laws regarding the care and maintenance of your beloved pets.
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.

“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!”
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.

“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: 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’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
“Juleysi was very kind and understanding. Even tho it was a last minute booking, she was pleasant and treated Dolce like hers. I’ll definitely use her services and absolutely recommend her!”
About: Ever since I was little I have had an unconditioned love for all animals and it has always been my dream to work with them when I got older. I always treat every animal like they are my own no matter who’s pet is, my last 2 jobs were a dog bather and I have loved every second of it and I can’t wait to work with animals again. I am currently able for full time, I am availability at all times and so I have a very flexible schedule. I am always here when needed.

About: Hi, I’m Celina, an animal lover with years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I recently relocated from Alaska to North Carolina and am excited to provide top-quality care for pets in my new community. My passion for animals drives me to ensure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Whether you need a regular pet sitter or someone for a special occasion, I’m here to help! I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. I’ve worked with dogs who have anxiety and understand how to make them feel more at ease, whether it’s through a calming environment, routine, or extra attention. I’m also skilled at administering medication to both cats and dogs, so you can trust that your pet’s health is in good hands. I offer boarding, drop-in visits, house sitting and doggy daycare. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine to help them feel secure. Additionally, I can assist with light housework, such as cleaning up after pets and watering plants. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I genuinely love taking care of pets and will treat your furry family members as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs medication, special attention, or just someone to be there while you're away, I’m here to help. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet! As a stay-at-home mom, pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily life. I take my daughter on daily walks, so having a friendly dog to accompany us is always a joy—if your dog is comfortable and safe around children. If not, no worries! I can leave my daughter with a trusted person while I give your pet my full attention. I have my own car, so transportation to your location is never an issue. Your pet will receive all the love, care, and attention they need, no matter what! When caring for pets in your home, I provide drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting, ensuring your pet is safe, comfortable, and well-cared for in their familiar environment. During my visits, I’ll feed, water, and play with your pet, as well as clean up after them. I take special care to ensure your pet’s safety by following your guidelines and routines, keeping doors securely closed, and making sure they’re always supervised. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, companionship, or medication, I ensure they’re safe and happy until you return. Safety is my top priority when walking dogs. I ensure that dogs are always leashed and carefully monitored during walks. If your dog enjoys walks and is safe around children, I can bring them along on my daily walks with my daughter. For dogs that require more individualized attention, I provide solo walks in quiet, pet-friendly areas to keep them safe. While house sitting, I make sure your pet stays safe and secure in your home, following their routine to minimize any stress. I also keep your home secure, clean up after your pet, and take care of light tasks like watering plants. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. My goal is to provide a loving, safe, and secure environment for your pets, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
“My dog had a great time with with Jacquely and her family. I really appreciated her flexibility and how well she and her family took care of my dog. Would highly recommend her services.”
“This was my dog’s first time staying with anyone other than family that is around him oftern! He had a great time! Maria was great at communicating and made sure i was updated regularly! I had a little separation anxiety but the open communication was definitely helpful and helped ease my anxiety. I would recommend Maria, she cared for my fur baby like one of her own. He had a great time and would recommend her as a sitter!”
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
About: I’ve had dozens of different animals since I was young. Ranging from farm animals, domestic animals, parrots and reptiles. Medication administration experience and bottle feeding as well. No care details are too extra or complicated. I am open to sitting any type of animal! I am home full time aside from errands with my little ones. I have a mini farm as I call it. Dogs, chickens, cats, ducks and more. I am outside majority of the day. We do love going to the park where my bulldog enjoys the dog area as well, so if you’re ok with it, trips to the park may be part of your pets stay! My farm is not completely fenced in, but I do have a fenced in area attached to the front of the house for the animals with plenty of space! I have a very long gravel driveway away from the main road. I have leads, collars, harnesses and cages if needed. I have baby gates in home if needed as well. My two dogs love everyone, they can just be overly friendly! Our oldest cat’s go outside a lot, so they are usually busy all day. Our youngest cat loves to play with everyone including dogs, but likes to stay inside. My female dog is not spayed, un neutered males will either be supervised or separated at night time.
About: Since I was a child I have always had dogs, from a young age I knew working with animals was something I'd love to do, being a pet sitter is just another way I get to spend time with furry friends and give them love while their families are on vacation or maybe just at work! I am currently transitioning into becoming a full pet sitter, I have left my full-time job roll as a daycare assistant teacher and am ready to care for your fur babies! My home sits at the bottom of a quiet cul-de-sac, I have a decent size yard, that is completely fenced with a privacy fence, doggy door for easy access to the backyard and potty times. Dogs have access to water at all times and will be on camera to ensure I am always keeping a close eye.

About: I have always had a big heart for animals. I have had many of my own over the years! I have cared for my own animals as well as for family, friends and neighbors. I currently have a senior dog of my own and I do all that I can to make her comfortable, just as I would for anyone else’s pet! I currently work a full-time job from home but I would be available to do possible drop in or dog walks first thing in the morning, on my lunch if it is close enough to my home and evening times as well. I work a part-time job as well on some Saturdays but I would still be available for weekend services as well. Possibly would be interested in doing drop ins here at my home. I have two small dogs of my own one which is a senior now and another that will be one in August. I do not have a fenced in yard but have plenty of well maintained yard space in the back of my home for them to be let out for potty and play time. I do currently crate my youngest dog only when needed and I could do the same for someone else’s. My daughter ask that I dog sit her full size golden doodle on a weekly basis and they all get along very well with other dogs.
“My boys can be a bit much when first meeting new people and the two together can be a little overwhelming.. Sandra has really been so good with them and they respond very well with her! We are thankful for her patience and the work she does with them ! Such a blessing for us!”
About: I previously worked as an animal care technician at a nonprofit animal shelter, I also own a 4 year old Great Pyrenees as well as a 2 year old mini Aussie.

I am a disabled army veteran that’s not currently working so I have all the time in the world for your beloved pets, I am here for you! In my home my dogs get taken out twice a day fed once in the evening and are out roaming all day. But I am flexible to your pets schedule/needs!
About: I've been caring for all types of animals since i was 12 years old. I've trained dogs such as German Shepherds and Pitbulls, and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I currently have the pleasure of loving 2 of my own special needs cats and a large tarantula. As well as this, my previous employment was a small pet care business in Georgia providing drop in visits for feeding, playtime and potty breaks, overnight sitting, walks, extended stays and taking care of exotic animals like birds. Throughout my life I've personally owned a snake, rabbit, hamsters, cats, dogs, spiders, moths and a bird! I'm looking forward to be an extra loving hand for your pets! I'm currently a full-time pet carer, caring for my special needs cats and others' lovely pets. I have plenty of time to care for your beloved fur babies and understand the ever-changing pace of life with pets, and am happy to accommodate. Any timeframe and any day, you can count on me to be reliable! Every pet parent is different and we all like specifics when it comes to the pets we love, so I always like to discuss with you about what you'd like done regarding crating, backyard time, car rides or park visits and waste disposal. I NEVER use punishment on any pet, and instead prefer a positive reinforcement only approach. I would like to be aware of your pets' allergies, triggers, injuries and fears so I can provide the best experience for them and for you!

I’m currently unemployed, so I’m always home, I always have time for playing with and cuddling with your pets! They will always be exhausted and loved I would prefer to do an overnight in your home as to not stress your pets out too much! They will be very cared for
About: I’ve had many animal “businesses” since I was little. A doggy care job is perfect for me! I have 3 dogs if my own, ranging from a chihuahua, to a Great Dane! I’ve taken care of my own as well as trusted with my friends and family’s pets. Hi! I am a full time student now, and I do have a job. I keep this open bc I love to help and love animals! I feed them and water them, as well as bathe all of them. And occasionally take them on walks for bit. I’m down for anything!
About: Hi! My name is Fernanda, and I provide drop-in visits and dog walking in the Lillington area. I've always had a deep love for animals — I'm a dog mom to three myself: Cobain, Moonie, and Jalapeno, a senior dog who showed up at our house last year and never left. Caring for three dogs with very different ages and personalities has taught me to read each dog individually rather than treat care as one-size-fits-all. I understand your pets are members of your family, and my goal is to give them that same love, attention, and safety while you're away. I'm home most of the day, so a visit from me isn't rushed or squeezed in — your dog gets real attention, not just a quick in-and-out. As a dedicated pet parent to my own three dogs, my daily life is entirely built around a structured animal care routine. Because of this, my schedule is highly predictable and reliable. I manage my time carefully to ensure that your pets receive punctual feeding, on-time medication, and consistent potty breaks without disruption. Whether you need early morning check-ins or late evening drop-ins, I am organized, timely, and fully committed to keeping your pet’s normal routine exactly on track. Safety is my absolute highest priority. Managing a diverse three-dog pack with completely different sizes, breeds, and personalities—including a delicate senior dog—means I am hyper-aware of animal body language, stress triggers, and environmental safety. I strictly follow all entry/exit protocols to prevent escape artists from slipping out the door. I am patient, gentle, and highly experienced in tracking slow movements, administering oral medications, and recognizing when a pet needs quiet rest.

“This was Alexis’ first time with my dog Otis and she was a hit. She communicated appropriately and arrived at the time she promised. She provided multiple pictures of the activities and locked my house back up like I asked her to. All around positive experience!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 12 yrs old. It’s a passion of mine to make sure all animals are cared for and comfortable. I’m currently about to retire and looking to purse my passion walking, visiting, and playing with animals. My schedule is almost always open for anytime. I have a fenced in backyard I have five friendly babies and one cat. I’m open to any service taking care of your babies at your location or mine.
About: I’ve had dozens of different animals since I was young. Ranging from farm animals, domestic animals, parrots and reptiles. Medication administration experience and bottle feeding as well. No care details are too extra or complicated. I am open to sitting any type of animal! I am home full time aside from errands with my little ones. I have a mini farm as I call it. Dogs, chickens, cats, ducks and more. I am outside majority of the day. We do love going to the park where my bulldog enjoys the dog area as well, so if you’re ok with it, trips to the park may be part of your pets stay! My farm is not completely fenced in, but I do have a fenced in area attached to the front of the house for the animals with plenty of space! I have a very long gravel driveway away from the main road. I have leads, collars, harnesses and cages if needed. I have baby gates in home if needed as well. My two dogs love everyone, they can just be overly friendly! Our oldest cat’s go outside a lot, so they are usually busy all day. Our youngest cat loves to play with everyone including dogs, but likes to stay inside. My female dog is not spayed, un neutered males will either be supervised or separated at night time.
About: I have been a dog owner for four years now, but since I can remember I have taken care of dogs. I have watched over neighbors and family friends dogs for hours up to days if they go out of town. I have worked with puppies to dogs with powered sugar faces, all are amazing. I can’t wait to be involved in your pups life! I work a part time job and I am looking for some extra income on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Sundays. I will be going to college in the fall so this gives me some time to form amazing and genuine relationships with some furry friends. I would make sure that all pets have there needs taken care of. It is so important to me that each client I have feels like their pup is In good hands. The details matter.
About: Being Milo’s mom has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and way of feeling loved!

My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in good hands! ❤️ I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate early mornings, evenings, weekends, and many last minute requests.

I maintain a secure, clean environment and provide attentive, dependable care along with plenty of love and companionship. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you can feel confident and at ease, knowing your pet is safe, happy, and in trustworthy hands.
About: My experience with animal care is a little broad. I’ve volunteered at FAPS in Fayetteville for a brief moment a couple years ago, as well as dog sitting for a good friend of mine these past two years. I have two dogs that are both smaller, we’ve had since they were puppies and I feel as I took majority of the responsibility with assisting in my younger dog Winston. He was and still is a high energy dog who needs lots of love and plenty of time outside. We walk both of our dogs, and I usually do house visits when my neighbors are out of town to check on her cats and dog ! I am a full time college student who enjoys helping out my community wherever I can. I figured a side hustle doing something I love, is a great place to start! I have two smaller dogs that have a fenced in backyard, so we tend to spend majority of our time together napping or playing in that backyard. They’re both fed twice a day and potty trained so they usually let us know when they have to go outside. They are also bathed pretty frequently as my one dog breed is at risk for matting, so we like to bathe and brush to keep up with maintenance. While dog sitting for my friend with 2 dogs, lab and husky mix, I went to her house 2 times in 45 minute increments to play with, feed, and take them outside to pee. It would be up to the clients however, as every dog is different and require different schedules!

About: I have had dog pets most of my life. My fur baby recently passed and I would rather love others than get another. Pets are the treasures of the planet! I'm currently working full-time and looking for something to fill my spare time. No better way then to spend it with pets. I am available all days with flexible times. My home is on a large piece of property and has fences from bordering properties, but is not fully enclosed. However, no pets will be outside unsupervised. In order to keep your pets safe I would leash walk them.

“Connie was a fantastic sitter for our dear Zoe over the Thanksgiving holiday! She provided photos and updates, which was nice to see while we missed her. Thanks again Connie for your great care of our precious girl! We'll see you again soon!!”
“Kimberley was excellent! Tika had an amazing time and played with Kimberley’s fur babies during her stay. Kimberley kept me consistently updates on Tika’s stay and provided many pictures (one of which will become an 8x10 on the wall at home) I am very much appreciative of Kimberley’s service and would definitely recommend her for anyone’s pet. Thank you again Kimberley!!!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my boys received! Casey kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My boys came home happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Casey to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Leonardo was amazing with my large breed dog, Jill, on a last-minute booking! He was super responsive, kind, and clearly great with big dogs. Jill loved him right away and came back happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“This was my first time hiring a sitter (new pet), so I didn't know how it would work or how things would go. To my delight, the process was simple and easy. Now onto the sitter--Jacqueline was outstanding. She kept my cat/kitten (grown lil boy, "Mr") from Thur-Sun. She sent pics of him daily and let me know how he was doing, what he was eating, etc. She brought up no issues with him during his visit with her. I felt at peace seeing the pics (especially the first day) of him and knew he was safe and happy. I'm glad I chose Jacqueline and encourage anyone who's on the fence about getting a sitter, to try Jacqueline....I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Thank you Jacqueline A....”
“Wow, what a great experience! Both Cassandra and her husband are great with dogs, their kids are great with dogs, and their dogs are great with dogs! I have a two-year-old lab who is still very much a puppy, and this wonderful family was able to handle her beautifully. They made her part of the family in every way. I'm so pleased.”
“Lisa & her family (and their own dog) are absolutely amazing! They watched our dogs for 2 weeks and I could easily see how happy George & Angus were. I'm always worried about people watching our dogs as they can be a handful, but they seamlessly blended in to Lisa home and family like they'd always been there. The whole family are clearly very experienced with dogs as they taught our boys a few commands to make feedings, etc. easier and took everything else in stride. They have a nice big grassy back yard where the dogs could get play and get their energy out. I absolutely will not hesitate to reach out to Lisa again as I can't recommend her highly enough.”
“I had an amazing experience with Branden and Nikkishae! From the start, communication was great and I felt completely comfortable leaving my puppy in their care. They were patient, attentive, and clearly have a natural love for animals. My puppy was well taken care of, and I could tell he felt safe and comfortable the entire time. They kept me updated and made the whole process stress-free for me, which I really appreciated. I will definitely be a returning customer and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to watch their pet. They are officially my go-to pet sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with them again.”
“Rena P provided exceptional care for my dog. She is incredibly caring, energetic, and professional. We received consistent updates and photos throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. It’s rare to find someone you trust implicitly with your pet, but Rena P is definitely that person!"”
“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
About: I provide experienced, in-home pet care with a calm, structured environment — not a crowded kennel. I focus on personalized attention, routines, and making each dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable like they’re at home. I structure my daily and weekly schedule around pet care, allowing me to be present throughout the day. This ensures consistent routines, regular check-ins, and personalized attention for every pet. I care for pets using a structured, supervised setup. I have multiple indoor kennels for comfort and safety, a fully fenced backyard with outdoor kennels for supervised play and fresh air, and a climate-controlled shed for temperature-safe rest and rotation. Pets are never left unsupervised, and I rotate time between indoor comfort, outdoor activity, and rest to ensure safety, cleanliness, and individualized care.

“It was so cool meeting Maria. She has a friendly and laid back attitude. She knows everything to do and communicates easily. She sent me pictures of my dog to update me on how he was doing. Would recommend”
“10/10 dog boarding service. Kristin really cared for my doggies and was extremely kind. They absolutely enjoyed themselves at her place! I would definitely book again! Thank you!!”
“Staci pet-sat for my fur-baby Maggie for 2 days and I am thinking she is missing her and her family. When my husband and I picked her up, Maggie gave me a little resistance on the leash, but eventually walked towards our car. I have always been hesitant about leaving Maggie with anyone outside of our family because she has separation anxiety and can be sad when we left her in the past with other pet sitting services. I am so grateful that Staci took such good care of Maggie and gave us updates that gave me a piece of mind while away. Thank you for keeping her and obviously loving on her so much. 💜 I can’t wait for the next time she gets to go to you. -D. Recinos”
“Kelly was amazing with her updates and provided my family with much needed peace of mind while we were away. Our Frenchie,Bijuu, seemed to enjoy himself and Kelly was thorough in making sure she attended to all his needs. Would absolutely book again.”
“I am very happy with the care Carol has provided to Maya. She is very kind and attentive to Maya and her needs. She has a beautiful yard where Maya feels very calm and at ease.”
“Kailey and her family were amazing with our fur baby girl, Korra! She had such an amazing time with them and got a gift from Santa paw♥️ (such a beautiful idea!). We left for a vacation outside of the country and felt so confident that Korra was in great hands - Korra participated in bedtime routines, was combed by the kids, played a lot of tag and went for neighborhood walks when the weather permitted it! I also got daily updates, which was just so perfect! Definitely Kailey will be my to go person for Korra. 🤗 Kailey was also so flexible and helpful! Thank you thank you thank you!! 💃🏽”
