“Gracie is a great dog sitter, she communicates well and timely, clearly loves animals, and provided a safe and loving home for my dog. Attie (my dog) had a great time fetching balls and playing with her dog toys. Gracie even sent a couple of balls home with her. I would highly recommend Gracie, and would not hesitate to ask her to dog sit again.”

“We were so impressed with Kourtney. She was professional and compassionate about our requests for 4-month-old puppy Holly. She sent us pictures and updates several times per day and always got back to us within minutes of messaging her. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter and will surely use her again. Holly seemed very happy while she was there and I think she misses Kourtney and her husband. Thanks again for everything!”

She was quick to respond, great with communicating, and seems to be a genuinely nice and caring person. She also has a nice sized yard that is all fenced in which was great for our dogs and I felt great about leaving them with her for the night. Everything couldn’t have gone better and we defintiely would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have cared for four dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. I currently have an 8-year-old mutt named Tucker who is incredibly sweet. Tucker previously went through heartworm treatment, so I have experience following medication schedules and giving medication as directed. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, basic grooming, and giving pets plenty of attention. I’ve also owned and cared for parrots, iguanas, lizards, hamsters, and many other animals. I genuinely love animals and will treat every pet like one of my own. I’m currently in college and only have about three hours of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout most of the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and spending quality time with your pets. My apartment is very pet-friendly and comfortable, with plenty of places for dogs to relax. I even have a couch specifically for dogs, along with a dog bed and other cozy spots throughout the apartment. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions you provide.

About: I have 10+ years of experience with cat and dog sitting, and also have experience caring for farm animals (I've worked on several farms). I’m comfortable and experienced working with pets of a variety of ages, from young kittens to older senior pups. I am available for pet sitting gigs in your home most days of the week. I also offer doggy day care and overnight boarding in my home Thursday afternoons through Sundays. I’m a flexible and responsive sitter, please reach out to connect! Our home is located in a private, quiet country setting. We have a fenced in yard for pups to play in. We have a dog ourselves who enjoys time with other pups and we also have an outdoor cat. Happy to take dogs on walks, run around in the fenced area, play fetch. etc. And, if cuddling is their thing, then I'll be curled up right beside them. Snugs = the best.

About: I have two cats of my own (they were strays turned house pets), so I love cats! But I also grew up with dogs, so I love dogs too! I understand that, just like dogs, cats have their own personalities and relational needs. With me, it isn't just cleaning litter boxes and filling food bowls. If your cat needs some brushing or a little playtime to get out the zoomies, I will do it all!

“Leaving our beloved dog, Abby, with a total stranger was a first for us, but we were camping and needed a dog sitter for half a day. From the moment we got out of the truck, Gracie was interacting with Abby. It was like they were old friends. Abby had a fun day with Gracie, her dog, and the fenced in backyard. Gracie also sent us the cutest picture. She deserves the 5-star rating and has our highest recommendation!”

About: I connect with animals of all kinds! I've had several dogs & cats, rabbits, pigs, turkeys, snakes, chickens, lizards, and a chinchilla. My love for animals is limitless & my goal is to improve the life of every animal I can reach. I am currently taking courses online to sharpen my skills pertaining to grooming, learning different breeds, training, diet & health. I have acquired many different brushes, supplements, flea combs, scissors and other supplies to keep your pet clean & tidy. I keep lots of treats in my kit including cat treats, cat nip, dog treats, calming pheromone spray & highly digestible bones. I enjoy cooking for pets when I can, making it feel more like going to Grandma's house instead of day care 😉 I am very attentive to moods and behaviors, while also going above and beyond to make sure they feel safe. I have treated sick animals, given medications, assisted in giving injections, and followed food regimens. I've been bitten by several different kinds of animals, so I know how to deal with the not-so-fun parts. I have plenty of energy to walk and play, toys, and my own reliable transportation. I've done extensive research on behaviors and relationships of pets and I'm always learning. I would be happy to write daily reports and/or take pictures, whatever makes you feel at ease. Outside of caring for my own animals, I'm not very busy, so if you need a last minute service, I will likely be available. I can transport animals in my car and also have a female German Shepherd who is fixed and is sweet as can be, if your pup would like a play mate! I'm always looking for new spots to walk & hike, making sure your bestie doesn't get bored ☺️ I strive to work with pet parents to provide high standard, seamless care for every animal & your peace of mind. There is nothing I won't do to ensure the safety & happiness of your pet. Frivolous is not in my vocabulary 🫡 I take care of my animals daily, but have plenty of free time for yours! Morning, afternoon or evening, I'm available for your pet care needs. My pets are well taken care of and honestly a little spoiled 🤭. We have different foods for different cat needs, we don't use cheap food brands in our household. Our dog is walked at least 5 times a week, sometimes more. Each animals gets individual attention and plenty of pets. I make my own treats to give my dog her medicine and also try other pet recipes from time to time. All animals are vaccinated, de-wormed, and get vet check-ins annually.

“Katy took care of my 5-month-old puppy, Bagel, for three days while I was in the area taking a painting class. Bagel is a very sweet, social and energetic puppy who loves people and other dogs, but he can become overstimulated around other dogs and doesn’t always know how to settle himself yet. Although I had explained that ahead of time, I don’t think either Katy or I realized just how difficult it would be for him to settle in a new home with another dog around. Katy really did try hard to make him comfortable. She took him on walks, played with him, worked on calming him down, and even made a trip to the pet store for a stronger harness, leash, blanket, treats and other things she thought might help. She communicated with me throughout the day and was very honest when she felt Bagel was becoming more than she could comfortably manage for a full day. After two particularly challenging days, we agreed to shorten his third day. Interestingly, he seemed to be settling in better by then, and Katy ended up keeping him until about 2:00 rather than the noon pickup we had planned. Bagel was always happy to see Katy and willingly went with her each morning, which meant a lot to me. I also really liked Katy personally and appreciated how much she cared about making the situation work. Bagel was simply a much bigger handful in her home than I expected, and I think being around another dog all day made it especially hard for him to turn himself off and rest. I’m grateful for the effort Katy put in and for how much she genuinely cared about Bagel during his stay.”

About: I've cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish, pigs, goats, chickens, and more. If you've got animals, I'm happy to chat about their needs! My routine is very flexible so my day and week can change to accommodate your pet's needs! I can drop in, walk, and play with your pet as often as is needed! My pet-sitting will be done in the client's home to avoid stressing the pet, keep them safe, and help them know that their owner is coming back. It establishes a good routine to have me come to them! When I come over, I come with their favorite treat in hand so they come to think of me as a special visitor. Then I meet their physical needs, like food, water, litter box, etc. For my dog friends, I get them on their walk right away to avoid accidents. We enjoy long or short walks depending on the owner's preference and the pet's health conditions. After our walk, we have some bonding time before I head out. I'll return at predictable times so pets can come to depend on me. Thank you for trusting me with your pet!

About: Not only have I taken care of dogs for a family vet since I was 9, I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding facility for years! I’ve taken dogs on countless walks, playdates, and even administered medication and provided first aid. Your pup is loved and cared for in my hands! I currently attend ETSU full time, with many gaps between my classes. I am available pretty much all day, every day, with the exception of a few one-hour classes! I come prepared to visit your pup! I let them approach me at their own speed, pace their walk how they please, and observe their body language and adjust accordingly! I have experience in introducing dogs, providing medical assistance, general care for all types of animals, and in rare cases, swiftly and safely breaking up dog fights.

I’ve been a pet lover and caretaker since I was 10 years old. I’m 22 yrs old now and a proud owner of a 5 yr old German Shepherd who is fully trained. I believe all animals deserve one on one attention, care, & Love. I care for pets by making sure their basic needs are met first. Along with assuring each pet is happy and are enjoying their time with me. So much that I want them to be excited with just hearing my name. Whether in my home or at a clients home I follow any specific care instructions, maintain a clean space and provide consistent attentions, love and care to help pets feel safe and happy in my presence.

About: Animals just relax around me. I’ve worked with many pet owners who are apprehensive to leave their pets with anyone due to the pet’s nervous temperaments, and other various quirks, and every single time the animals have surprised their owners by completely settling in with me. I prioritize play, love, and connecting with each individual pet I watch however they specifically need. I’ve looked after animals of all breeds, ages, & temperaments- from anxious & fussy older pets to energetic young puppies. I have experience administering medications to sick animals, hand feeding injured puppies, walking several pets at once, and managing dogs & cats that are a bit wild. I’ve even cared for lizards, turtles, fish, plants (haha), hamsters, birds, & rabbits. Whatever their needs, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, & at home while they’re with me. I am a potter who works from my home studio, and I make my own schedule- so I can generally be flexible and accommodate your pets needs. I love having pets in my home, and breaking away from my studio to get some fresh air and puppy/kitty love too! If I’m working on a big project, it’s nice to have to flexibility to come and go from my studio when possible, or have your pet there with me- but I have worked out all kinds of house sit/drop in/boarding arrangements according to the needs of clients and their pets. Let’s talk! I live in a peaceful home with a large fenced in backyard, and nice quiet streets to walk with your pet as needed. I will follow whatever routines you generally stick to and prefer when working with your animals. Give me all the details of your needs and preferences, boundaries and particulars- no matter what type of sit- so I can be sure you and your pet(s) feel a sense of trust, ease, and predictability.

“Gracie is a great dog sitter, she communicates well and timely, clearly loves animals, and provided a safe and loving home for my dog. Attie (my dog) had a great time fetching balls and playing with her dog toys. Gracie even sent a couple of balls home with her. I would highly recommend Gracie, and would not hesitate to ask her to dog sit again.”

She even went above and beyond to sew up Millie's bed for us after Millie had an exciting night of chewing it all to pieces. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Heather was an absolute delight! She told me everything she needed, and told me how she planned to take care of Sutton! I am a bit of an over thinker so that was so sweet to me. Sutton was happy the whole time! She was cared for like she was one of Heathers dogs! She followed Suttons schedule perfectly! I was able to relax and know that Sutton was in good hands while I was on my trip! I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Camilla was a 10/10 pet sitter. We had a great experience and hope to rebook next time we are in the area. She was quick to respond, great with communicating, and seems to be a genuinely nice and caring person. She also has a nice sized yard that is all fenced in which was great for our dogs and I felt great about leaving them with her for the night. Everything couldn’t have gone better and we defintiely would recommend her to anyone.”

“Rachel was great and has a large fenced in area where the dogs can really run and play. Though Jade was a bit nervous at drop off, a day later Rachel reported she had really come out of her shell and was fully engaged in play time. Rachel sent us images of Jade a couple times which really helped us relax. Would definitely send Jade her way again.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have cared for four dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. I currently have an 8-year-old mutt named Tucker who is incredibly sweet. Tucker previously went through heartworm treatment, so I have experience following medication schedules and giving medication as directed. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playing, basic grooming, and giving pets plenty of attention. I’ve also owned and cared for parrots, iguanas, lizards, hamsters, and many other animals. I genuinely love animals and will treat every pet like one of my own. I’m currently in college and only have about three hours of class on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available throughout most of the week for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and spending quality time with your pets. My apartment is very pet-friendly and comfortable, with plenty of places for dogs to relax. I even have a couch specifically for dogs, along with a dog bed and other cozy spots throughout the apartment. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me, and I’m happy to follow any routines or special instructions you provide.

About: I have 10+ years of experience with cat and dog sitting, and also have experience caring for farm animals (I've worked on several farms). I’m comfortable and experienced working with pets of a variety of ages, from young kittens to older senior pups. I am available for pet sitting gigs in your home most days of the week. I also offer doggy day care and overnight boarding in my home Thursday afternoons through Sundays. I’m a flexible and responsive sitter, please reach out to connect! Our home is located in a private, quiet country setting. We have a fenced in yard for pups to play in. We have a dog ourselves who enjoys time with other pups and we also have an outdoor cat. Happy to take dogs on walks, run around in the fenced area, play fetch. etc. And, if cuddling is their thing, then I'll be curled up right beside them. Snugs = the best.
