“We have not left our dog with anyone in a long time and I was concerned about how he would do away from us. Deborah was great- Our dog seemed happy and relaxed in the pictures that she shared and at pick up. I love that she has a fenced in yard as well.”


“Our 2 dogs LOVE going to Joe & Celeste’s home. They love hanging out & playing with their 2 dogs. They also love running around their big fenced in yard!! Our dogs are always happy to go there!!!”

“Very friendly. Appreciate the big yard. Very flexible around our pick up and drop off times. Received a few pictures. Would have preferred hearing more often especially sooner. But had every confidence our lab was having a great time. Will definitely return again.”

“Sassy and I really loved Amanda. She did so good with sassy and sassy did so good with Amanda. Sassy stayed a whole week and by the pictures I received she enjoyed her time away. I will definitely be using Amanda again she kept me updated and sent me photos of sassy which I really appreciated because I missed being away from sassy. Book Amanda she is really great 😊 thank you again”


“Katelyn made us feel very comfortable by meeting us in advance and showing us where Ladie would stay. She also sent us pics and updates to keep us posted on how Ladie was doing. Excellent experience and we will definitely use Katelyn again!”

“She was AWESOME! My baby Bubba has a new auntie. I didn't worry at all while on vacation because Katherine made him so comfortable and now he has a friend in Bailey for life! I would leave Bubba with her every time...”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was surrounded by all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to hamsters and rats—and I’ve always loved caring for animals. I’ve also had the opportunity to foster kittens and gain hands-on experience with a variety of pets. My mom was a veterinary technician for 30 years, so I grew up learning a lot about animal care, behavior, and what it means to keep pets happy and healthy. At 18, I started my own pet-sitting business back home in Connecticut. When I moved out of state, I left the business behind, but I’ve always wanted to get back into pet sitting—and now feels like the perfect time! I currently have two cats and two ball pythons of my own. My schedule is also very flexible right now, which means I’m able to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. My time spent with your pets will involve lots of love and cuddles, walks and playtime, as well as treats as appropriate. I also have experience with administering medications to pets, so if this is something you need assistance with just let me know! I know how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry (or scaly!) family members! 🐾 I'm currently in between jobs and looking for something part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your babies, whether that be drop-ins or boarding. If needed, I have a dog crate at home for the safety of your pet while I am not at home. I have a 3 bedroom home in a peaceful community in Conway.

“Abigail is such a sweet woman that surpassed expectations! She took on our THREE large and X-Large breed dogs for the entire week before Christmas! She sent photos and videos every single day and kept me up to date on any behavior changes due to them being away from home. She took them all on walks together, they baked doggy treats, and even got their photo taken in front of the Christmas tree! Seriously what more could you possibly ever ask for!!”

“We were super lucky to find Maria to love for our dogs while we were on vacation. Miley and Cody are extremely energetic and love to play and exercise. Maria's dog, Dante, was up for the challenge and couldn't have been a better friend. Maria was very accommodating and took Miley and Cody in on very short notice. She let Miley and Cody have free reign of the house and backyard (huge, by the way) which they both love. She also went the extra mile to cook and mix eggs with their meals to which they are accustomed and love. Maria made sure to frequently send us pics and videos of the doggies playing outside or sleeping around the house which helped us to relax throughout our vacation. Overall, Maria was outstanding and we would definitely recommend her to everyone.”
“My boy is always so happy to be with Donna and her family. I just love his life when he's with them. Peace of mind is priceless. We just love her and her husband. Nana and Papa”

“This is my first time boarding Trigger with Skyla and he loved it there. He’s a rescue and very wary and after he got comfortable Trigger made himself right at home. Skyla has two sweet pups and Trigger really took to Louie the chihuahua. Louie is quite the ambassador! Thank you for taking such good care of my sweet boy.”

“Highly recommend Kyle, he was very communicative and took very good care of our dogs. Our dogs were happy and tired out by pick up time, we will definitely be booking again in the future!”

“We were nervous to leave our dog for the first time but felt at ease as soon as we met Jennifer and Matthew. They took great care of Theo and stayed in touch, sending pictures and videos which meant a lot to us. We highly recommend them.”

“If you are looking for a pet sitter for your fur baby, look no further. Melissa is a caring responsible pet owner and will care for your pet as if it is her own. She was very conscious of Josie’s routine and habits. I felt very comfortable leaving her with Melissa. I received pictures and updates everyday. Definitely will be using Melissa again to watch Josie.”

“Atina is nothing short of amazing! She took care of my two dogs, one of which is a senior chiweenie with heart and skin conditions. My dogs were so loved and cared for and I was completely at ease. She was also very accommodating with my schedule for drop off and pick up. I will absolutely book with Atina again!”

“Laura and Elijah couldn’t have been friendlier or more accommodating with our last-minute booking and pretty high maintenance brand new, 11-week old puppy! They loved her and cared for her as if she was their own pup! We received many photos of walks on the beach and couch snuggles. We could not have asked for a better experience and will definitely rebook with this lovely active, animal-loving couple!”

“Lara did a outstanding job with our little dog Izzy. She kept us informed on how Izzy was doing with photos, videos, and text messages since we were gone for two weeks to visit our family in Anchorage. We will definitely use her again. I was afraid that our Izzy wasn't going to want to come back home. I highly recommend that you give her a try. Very reasonable compared to other sitters.”


“Trina is the ABSOLUTE BEST dog sitter we could have ever found! She took such good and loving care of our Maltipoo, Sadie. She constantly sent us updates and pictures Sadie. With Trina having a fenced in backyard, Sadie was able to run around and play with Trina’s other pets. It was obvious Sadie was so happy and at peace being watched by Trina. We will most definitely use her services again!!”

“So lucky to have Dace! She checked on my fur baby everyday and made her feel so special! Thank you, Dace, you are great and I look forward to having you for more visits.”

“Our cat was in great hands while we were away! Chantel came by daily, made sure everything was taken care of, and sent us photos each day, which we really appreciated. It was such a relief knowing our kitty was comfortable and cared for. Would absolutely book again!”

“Marie was kind enough to watch our Kitties over the Christmas Holidays. We were supposed to be home on January 2nd but our flight got cancelled on us. Marie was kind enough last minute to watch our cats and extra 4 days last minute.”


About: I have had and taken care of cats my whole life. I have a cat of my own now and also live with others in the home. I have experience with bottle feeding kittens, general care of cats, and even special needs care when it comes to giving medication and managing a cat with walking disabilities due to spinal issues. I have cat sit for multiple people and am ready to take on more kitty clients.
“Megan was amazing!! I booked her very last minute and she was so accommodating. She took amazing care of my 2 cats and constantly kept me updated with pictures of them! Made leaving them so much easier, will definitely be booking her again!!!”

“Tawny was great! I have 4 dogs, ranging in sizes, and they are very high maintenance. she did great with all of them! Followed instructions perfectly, had great communication, and made me feel so comfortable with my pups under her care. I will be requesting her every time I need a sitter for my doggos!”

About: I've taken care of cats since I was a little girl. My first pet was a tuxedo kitty named April. From social butterflies to the timid babies. I've cared for them all. I have administered medication and given shots. Look forward to meeting your fur baby!
“Lindsay did an exceptional job looking after my cat for two weeks. I hired her to house sit with my 8 year old cat, plus give him his daily medicine. My cat, abandoned as a 4-5 month old kitten, has his share of issues and doesn't handle well meeting new people. But when Lindsay came to meet him, he didn't hide and actually let her pet him. His instinct told him he'd be okay with her, and he was. I will definitely hire Lindsay again!”


About: I’ve spent years professionally caring for animals of all personalities, ages, and needs, and cats have always been part of that experience. I understand that cats require a different approach than dogs;patience, respect for their space, and care tailored to their individual personality. Whether your cat is outgoing and affectionate or shy and prefers things on their own terms, I’m comfortable adjusting to what makes them feel safest. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, play and enrichment, administering medications, and keeping a close eye on changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being. Most importantly, I know how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets and home while you’re away. My goal is to keep your cat’s routine as normal, comfortable, and stress-free as possible—and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in experienced hands.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 5, growing up my street had so many chihuahuas. I will take care of your pets like they’re my own. Right now I’m in college so I’m doing this for a little extra money and for something to do. I would love this extra time to care and love your pets as if they are my own plus it would give me something to do. (I promise I have so much free time on my hands this would really help lol) I would keep your dog inside. We would do activities such as walking your dog at a park or around my house. You must bring your own dog/cat food.

About: I’ve had Cats my whole life in all stages of life kitten-seniors. I’m ready to provide whatever care you need dropping in to feed and water them, keeping your litter box clean while you’re away, administering pills and topicals when needed, etc
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10 years old because I grew up on a farm. Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me with taking care of there pets such as walking, bathing and feeding. I have taken care of puppies and elderly dogs and I am also currently going through the process of becoming a certified pet trainer. I’m a full-time college student and mom, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m home a lot and can make time throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding, and check-ins. I’m also able to work around your pet’s normal routine so they don’t have to feel like their schedule is being completely changed while you’re away. I live in a townhouse with a fenced-in patio where pets can safely get some fresh air and play. I have pets of my own who are friendly, but I’m also happy to keep them separated if your pet is more comfortable on their own. I’m big on making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, and I’ll follow any instructions you leave for me.
About: I understand, as a pet owner myself, that finding someone you trust to care for your furry family members isn't easy. Well, look no further because I'm your girl.

I've built a successful clientele base in Colleton County over the last several years, and I'm excited to bring my experience, passion, and love for all animals to Horry County. I have a special place in my heart for furry, four-legged kids. I've opened my heart and home to many dogs & cats through the years, and I'd love to share that love with your precious family members. Animals are where my heart is, and I love spending my day engulfed in the unbridled enthusiasm and love that these wonderful creatures provide. I've also really enjoyed volunteering at animal shelters, and I wish that I could rescue them all. That's just one reason you can trust me to care for your pet as if they were my own. I've made caring for your furry kids my full-time DREAM job. My services include a drop-in visit while you're away or overnight care in your home. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and reptiles, and my specialty is small farms including chickens/birds, horses, pigs, goats and cows. You can feel confident knowing your babies are in great hands with me. After all, my kids have paws. Love, Heather Adair I have been pet sitting full-time since 2017 and my goal is to keep your fur babies in their usual happy & comfortable in their routine.

“My boyfriend and I went to myrtle beach for a little weekend get away before we started up college again. We decided to take our dog, haezel with us, because she’d never been on a trio or saw the beach before. Sunday was our last day to finish up our plans before we had to leave, so we looked for a sitter. I searched and searched and searched for hours, until we ran into this sweet lady. We had been looking for a sitter since 9am, at this point it was 2pm and Ms.Debra was the most amazing life saver. She met us at a half way point and she was able to keep haezel for the rest of the day. She was constantly messaging me, letting me know how haezel was doing while we were away and even sending picture updates. That was the first time I’d ever left my dog for a long period of time, and Ms.Debrs definitely helped sooth my anxiety.”


“Joe and Celeste took great care of my little Shih Tzu, Josie. She was so excited to pal around with their dogs, who are incredibly sweet and friendly. Josie got to play all day and enjoy the sunshine!”
“Amanda was GREAT!!! First time doing doggy daycare and I was highly satisfied. As I pulled into the driveway both her and her daughter was outside waiting on Luna. Throughout the day she messaged me on how Luna was doing and also sent pictures. She enjoyed so much she slept from the time I picked her up til the next morning. Definitely booking on the regular.”


“Digo loves being at daycare! Janet keeps him active and assures that he is socializing with other dogs. She takes him outside often and keeps him inside when weather is not conducive. She introduced him to kiddie pool and she reinforces training including housebreaking and simple commands such as “sit”. Janet is also very flexible with schedule - I’m a nurse and my hours are very early and long! We are very fortunate to have found Janet!”

About: I have been a Yorkie, schnauzer or spaniel owner for years and just love the little furry family members. Currently Maggie May (my sweet rescue) and I love the opportunity to walk, keep and cuddle your "family member". I even make dog biscuits for the cutie pies if their owners give the okay. The safety and happiness of your dog is my primary concern. They will get a lot of love and the best possible care. Bottom line, I am an animal lover! I have been the go to person for my friends for years when they need a dog sitter or walker. I love having four legged friends as guests in my home. I work from home so am always available for the fur babies. Generally most of our furry friends love sitting in my office with me and checking out what is going on outside from the double window on the front wall. I have a fenced backyard and enjoy walking my Maggie May everyday. We enjoy playing together and just sitting ourside on the patio in the sunshine.
“Jennifer and Matthew are fine people!!! I think their hearts are the same shape as milk bones! Finny had an excellent time with them and came home happy and tired. He was even tired the next day too! Good people, I’d trust them with anything.”
“We are not from NMB but our son had a baseball tournament there. So glad we found Christy. Not only was she near the ballpark, but Cosmo had a blast with some new fur buddies! Thank you Christy for taking care of Cosmo. He had so much fun he immediately knocked out on our drive home. We’ll definitely reach out again the next time we’re in NMB.”

“Kelly was wonderful! I made a last-minute daycare request just one day before drop-off, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She was kind, communicative, and took great care of my pup throughout the day. I especially appreciated the updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely book with Kelly again if I’m back in the Calabash area and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, responsive, and accommodating sitter.”
“Left our fur baby with Skyla while we were visiting from out of town. Skyla was great and loving! She made Luna feel comfortable and provided her with lots of activities and play time. She kept us informed throughout the day which made us feel at ease. So thankful we were able to count on her to watched Luna while we vacationed!”

“Atina and Sean were very patient with our boys, our older one is very anxious and doesn't like to leave Mom too much. Atina made sure to reach out to me and let me know that Finnegan is adapting well and doing a great job settling in for the day! We would recommend them again to anyone.”

About: What Sets Me Apart Your pet won’t just be “watched” here—they’ll be truly cared for like family. Because I work from home, your pet will have consistent, all-day attention, plenty of interaction, and lots of love. They’ll never feel alone or overlooked. I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience with all kinds of animals, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and needs—from playful pups to more timid or senior pets who need a gentler touch. My home offers a large yard for safe play and fresh air, giving pets the space to run, explore, and enjoy themselves while staying in a secure, supervised environment. Most importantly, I’m naturally gentle, patient, and attentive. I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and quirks so they feel comfortable, happy, and at ease while you’re away. You can expect regular updates, lots of affection, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in a calm, loving home—not a kennel. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life because I run a small in-home business, which means I’m home the majority of the day. Having furry friends here is truly a bonus to my routine—I love the extra company and all the snuggle time they bring! Throughout the day, I’m able to give pets consistent attention, potty breaks, playtime, and affection, rather than just quick check-ins. Whether it’s relaxing nearby while I work, playing outside in the yard, or curling up for naps, your pet will be included in a calm, loving environment. Because I’m already home and active, your pet becomes a natural part of my day—not an afterthought. They’ll get plenty of interaction, supervision, and love. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and loving home environment where your pet can relax and feel right at home. I’m currently in the process of having my yard fully fenced, and in the meantime, all outdoor time is closely supervised to ensure your pet’s safety. Pets in my care enjoy a balance of playtime, rest, and affection throughout the day. I provide fun activities like outdoor play and even water play on warmer days for pets who enjoy it. Inside, there are plenty of cozy spots to nap, relax, and feel secure. With your approval, I love to offer treats and positive reinforcement to help pets feel happy and comfortable. I also include gentle pet massage and extra snuggle time, which many dogs absolutely love—it helps them relax and feel at ease while they’re away from home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and personality so they feel safe, cared for, and truly part of the family during their stay.
“Arianna was amazing with our Winston! We were able to enjoy Ocean Isle without a worry about our boy. Jagger and Winston instantly hit it off and she was able to accommodate our request of letting Winston out often due to being on steroids. I highly recommend her services! I will be rebooking any time we return to the area ☺️”

“Cheryl was a wonderful pet sitter, she took very good care of my dog that has separation anxiety. She only takes one dog at a time which I love, I know that my dog is going to get the attention that she needs. Sheryl is very thoughtful caring and made my dog feel very comfortable. She took her on long walks, and made her feel comfortable. I will definitely use her again whenever I am in town. She is the best dog sitter in this area.”
About: I’ve grown up with cats my whole life and currently have a 15lb dachshund and 3 cats in the house. All are very friendly. Any animal is welcome in my home. I work in a hospital three days a week. So I have four days completely free to take care of your pets. My bestfriend lives with me as well and is always around to help. There’s always someone home. I’ve served 5 years active duty navy and currently in the reserves so I do have common sense and can read and follow directions with precision. I have a car if needed for any reason and love being outdoors as much as possible so we can always go on nice long walks. I have a huge fenced in yard so we’ll spend plenty of time in the sun.

About: With over a decade of experience in animal care, I’ve had the joy of working with everything from dogs and puppies to exotic animals like monkeys and tigers. I’ve also owned and operated a professional dog kennel, where I provided exceptional boarding services and made every pet feel like part of the family. My true passion is creating joyful, fulfilling experiences for the pets in my care. Whether it’s taking extra time for those long, joyful sniffs and grass rolls, cuddling on the couch, or playing their favorite game, I’m here to make sure your pet feels loved, enriched, and happy while you’re away. Every pet deserves the best, and I go above and beyond to give them a fun, stress free, and loving experience. Having rescued and cared for dogs in need, I bring a deep sense of compassion to everything I do. Rover allows me to continue offering the personalized care that pets deserve, treating them like family and making their time with me as special as possible. This is my full time job, giving me the flexibility to offer your pet personalized care throughout the day. With a 3 year old daughter, we’re always active, and I love including pets in our daily routines, whether it's a fun walk, playtime in the yard, or cozy snuggle while we watch a movie. My schedule allows me to ensure your pet gets the attention, love, and activity they need, while also balancing my family life. Travel Surcharge Notice: Please note that for round-trip travel exceeding 20 miles, a $1.00 per mile surcharge will be added after booking. I’m happy to travel up to 100 miles to care for your pet! When I’m with your dog, I treat them like family. I understand that your pet is a cherished member of your household, so I make sure to keep their environment familiar and comforting, just as it is when you're home. Whether I’m walking them, visiting, or staying overnight, I follow their routine to ensure they feel safe and relaxed. You can trust that your dog will receive the same love, care, and attention as I would give my own pets, all while respecting your home and their space.

About: I am a certified, licensed, and insured dog trainer and the owner of Chaos To Clarity K9. I work with dogs and their families on obedience, leash skills, everyday manners, and behavior challenges. Many of the dogs I help are everyday family dogs who need guidance with things like pulling on leash, barking, jumping, reactivity, or learning how to settle in the home. I also enjoy working with puppies and helping owners build strong foundations early through clear communication and consistency. I have a strong interest in behavior modification, especially helping dogs work through fear, stress, and reactivity at a pace that keeps them comfortable and learning. My husband is a Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) and a combat veteran and former military police K9 handler who trained civilian police dogs. Because of his veterinary background, I’m also able to consult with him when behavior questions may have a possible medical component, which can sometimes play a role in behavior. I also understand that dogs live in real families with real challenges. I live with multiple sclerosis and am raising an autistic four-year-old, so I appreciate how important it is for training to be practical, realistic, and supportive of the household environment. My goal is always to help create calmer, safer, and more enjoyable relationships between dogs and the people who love them. One thing that’s very important to me is paying attention to canine body language and stress signals. Dogs communicate constantly through subtle changes in posture, facial expression, and movement, and recognizing those signals early can prevent many behavior problems from escalating. During training, I help owners learn how to recognize what their dog is communicating so they can respond in a way that builds trust, confidence, and better behavior over time. Dog training is part of my regular weekly routine, and I intentionally keep my schedule structured so each client receives focused attention. My current training availability is: • Tuesday: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM • Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM • Thursday: 9:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Saturday: 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM • Sunday: Afternoon appointments available by request Closed: Monday and Friday Because each dog and family has unique needs, I limit the number of training sessions I take each week so I can provide thoughtful, individualized guidance and follow-up support between sessions. Safety, trust, and clear communication are always my top priorities when working with dogs and their families. I pay close attention to canine body language and stress signals to make sure dogs remain comfortable and able to learn during training. Training sessions focus on creating a calm, structured environment where both the dog and owner can succeed. I work at the dog’s pace and help owners understand what their dog is communicating so they can respond clearly and confidently. My goal is to create training plans that are safe, practical, and sustainable for everyday life, helping dogs feel more secure while helping owners feel supported throughout the process.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 5, growing up my street had so many chihuahuas. I will take care of your pets like they’re my own. Right now I’m in college so I’m doing this for a little extra money and for something to do. I would love this extra time to care and love your pets as if they are my own plus it would give me something to do. (I promise I have so much free time on my hands this would really help lol) I would keep your dog inside. We would do activities such as walking your dog at a park or around my house. You must bring your own dog/cat food.
About: I’ve cared for and owned animals of all kinds. I have experienced in Dog, Cat, and some reptile care. I promise to provide a safe environment for your pets while keeping open communication and providing regular updates. I’m currently a college student who is working part time in Wilmington. Due to that my availability is limited to Friday-Sunday anytime rain or shine For all clients I will provide the same level of care that i do for my own pets constant play, supervision, and potty breaks. For daycare clients my pets will be out of the home. I also have access to 7 acres for your dogs to roam and play in (supervised and on leash) and an already pet proofed home.
About: Growing up in the animal rescue and care world, I’ve looked after everything from horses to mice. Over the years, I’ve fostered, reconditioned, and rehomed abused and abandoned animals, helping them learn to trust again. I’m experienced in animal behavior across life stages, including neonatal and senior pets. My goal is to provide every animal I meet with as much love, guidance, and attentive care as they deserve. I live on a small homestead with my husband, a stay-at-home dad and disabled veteran, and our four children. I’m a self-employed Realtor and the owner of LABZ Pet and Farm Sitting LLC, so I have the flexibility to build my schedule around my clients’ needs. I’m currently attending Unity Environmental University, working toward my Bachelor of Science in Companion Animal Behavior. My program is fully online, which means I can bring my laptop with me and easily keep up with coursework during overnight stays or extended sits. I strictly follow the guidelines and routines you provide, because you know your pets best. When no specific instructions are given, I use a thoughtful, age-appropriate schedule for dogs and cats at different life stages. In general, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and engaged: walking and playtime, refilling food and water according to your specifications, cleaning up any messes, and providing baths when needed. I can also pick up pet supplies or groceries upon request, so you come home to happy pets and a stress-free environment.
“Mikayla did a fantastic job taking care of our dog for 3 weeks while we visited the area. She walked & played with him and made him feel very comfortable during his time away from home. My husband and I highly recommend Mikayla!”

“We have not left our dog with anyone in a long time and I was concerned about how he would do away from us. Deborah was great- Our dog seemed happy and relaxed in the pictures that she shared and at pick up. I love that she has a fenced in yard as well.”

“Very friendly. Appreciate the big yard. Very flexible around our pick up and drop off times. Received a few pictures. Would have preferred hearing more often especially sooner. But had every confidence our lab was having a great time. Will definitely return again.”

“Sassy and I really loved Amanda. She did so good with sassy and sassy did so good with Amanda. Sassy stayed a whole week and by the pictures I received she enjoyed her time away. I will definitely be using Amanda again she kept me updated and sent me photos of sassy which I really appreciated because I missed being away from sassy. Book Amanda she is really great 😊 thank you again”


“Katelyn made us feel very comfortable by meeting us in advance and showing us where Ladie would stay. She also sent us pics and updates to keep us posted on how Ladie was doing. Excellent experience and we will definitely use Katelyn again!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I was surrounded by all kinds of pets—from dogs and cats to hamsters and rats—and I’ve always loved caring for animals. I’ve also had the opportunity to foster kittens and gain hands-on experience with a variety of pets. My mom was a veterinary technician for 30 years, so I grew up learning a lot about animal care, behavior, and what it means to keep pets happy and healthy. At 18, I started my own pet-sitting business back home in Connecticut. When I moved out of state, I left the business behind, but I’ve always wanted to get back into pet sitting—and now feels like the perfect time! I currently have two cats and two ball pythons of my own. My schedule is also very flexible right now, which means I’m able to give your pets plenty of time, attention, and care. My time spent with your pets will involve lots of love and cuddles, walks and playtime, as well as treats as appropriate. I also have experience with administering medications to pets, so if this is something you need assistance with just let me know! I know how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll treat yours like they’re part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry (or scaly!) family members! 🐾 I'm currently in between jobs and looking for something part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your babies, whether that be drop-ins or boarding. If needed, I have a dog crate at home for the safety of your pet while I am not at home. I have a 3 bedroom home in a peaceful community in Conway.

“Abigail is such a sweet woman that surpassed expectations! She took on our THREE large and X-Large breed dogs for the entire week before Christmas! She sent photos and videos every single day and kept me up to date on any behavior changes due to them being away from home. She took them all on walks together, they baked doggy treats, and even got their photo taken in front of the Christmas tree! Seriously what more could you possibly ever ask for!!”

“My boy is always so happy to be with Donna and her family. I just love his life when he's with them. Peace of mind is priceless. We just love her and her husband. Nana and Papa”

“This is my first time boarding Trigger with Skyla and he loved it there. He’s a rescue and very wary and after he got comfortable Trigger made himself right at home. Skyla has two sweet pups and Trigger really took to Louie the chihuahua. Louie is quite the ambassador! Thank you for taking such good care of my sweet boy.”

“Highly recommend Kyle, he was very communicative and took very good care of our dogs. Our dogs were happy and tired out by pick up time, we will definitely be booking again in the future!”

“We were nervous to leave our dog for the first time but felt at ease as soon as we met Jennifer and Matthew. They took great care of Theo and stayed in touch, sending pictures and videos which meant a lot to us. We highly recommend them.”

“If you are looking for a pet sitter for your fur baby, look no further. Melissa is a caring responsible pet owner and will care for your pet as if it is her own. She was very conscious of Josie’s routine and habits. I felt very comfortable leaving her with Melissa. I received pictures and updates everyday. Definitely will be using Melissa again to watch Josie.”

“Atina is nothing short of amazing! She took care of my two dogs, one of which is a senior chiweenie with heart and skin conditions. My dogs were so loved and cared for and I was completely at ease. She was also very accommodating with my schedule for drop off and pick up. I will absolutely book with Atina again!”

“Laura and Elijah couldn’t have been friendlier or more accommodating with our last-minute booking and pretty high maintenance brand new, 11-week old puppy! They loved her and cared for her as if she was their own pup! We received many photos of walks on the beach and couch snuggles. We could not have asked for a better experience and will definitely rebook with this lovely active, animal-loving couple!”


“Trina is the ABSOLUTE BEST dog sitter we could have ever found! She took such good and loving care of our Maltipoo, Sadie. She constantly sent us updates and pictures Sadie. With Trina having a fenced in backyard, Sadie was able to run around and play with Trina’s other pets. It was obvious Sadie was so happy and at peace being watched by Trina. We will most definitely use her services again!!”

“My Golden Retriever is always so happy to see Janice and so sad to leave. Georgia doesn’t eat her breakfast after being back home as she’s depressed. We’ve learned not to take it personally and know she’ll eat eventually. I can’t say enough about Janice—shes’s the best!”

“As we have said before ; Christy is the best her home is dedicated to her animals we call it our sweet Joy girls second home when we are out of town. Christy is very kind and considerate and knowledgeable when it comes your pet! Christy is always our first choice of care for our pet!”


“Lisa was great with Wilson! It was the first time we left him overnight somewhere and we are so happy with how it went. Lisa was extremely flexible on pick up and drop off time which worked great for us. She sent us a picture of Wilson during his stay. He had a great time with Lisa and her kids. I would definitely recommend Lisa!”
