About: I started pet and house sitting in 2015 and have loved caring for furry, feathered, and even scale-y friends ever since. As a farm kid through and through, I'm comfortable with animals of all shapes and sizes and have experience caring for nearly every type of pet you can imagine. I don't shy away from big animals (or big messes!) I recently completed my graduate degree and became a nationally certified Physician Assistant. While my training is in human medicine, I have experience caring for pets with complex medical needs, including administering injections, medications, and subcutaneous fluids. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable and attentive caring for your pets, especially when they require extra support. At home, I share my life with two cats, Winston and Franklin, one of whom is an FIP survivor. That experience has given me a firsthand appreciation for the trust pet owners place in their caregivers and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your pets are in capable hands. If you're looking for a responsible, dependable professional to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you're away, I'd be honored to help.
About: Growing up I rescued lots of kittens and nursed them back to health. I’m often called upon when my friends or family find stray cats and need someone to help. I’ve had many cats over the years and have learned so much about them. I’m very patient and soft with my feline friends and that is why I’m perfect to come sit your lovely kitty. 🥰
About: Hello! Currently I own 3 precious female cats myself! I rescued each of them when they were kittens and still actively work with a cat rescue local in my area! I have plenty of resource opportunities if needed as well because of that! I have owned cats since I was a child, and I’ve always loved observing each of their own unique personalities. Although many say dogs are a man’s best friend, I truly believe cats are equally as loyal, loving and caring!
“Thank you so much for caring and taking care of our cats!!! I really appreciate you caring about their safety and wellbeing as much as we do, and I genuinely appreciate all of the communications and pictures. We will definitely use you again!”
About: I’ve had my own cat for over 8 years now and have worked with cats of all shapes and sizes since then. I’ve helped to tame feral kitties, worked with medically complex cats needing insulin or inhalers, and don’t mind a stand offish friend.
About: I have many years of experience caring for cats and understand that each one has their own personality and comfort level. Growing up, I was always around cats and learned early how to care for their daily needs, including feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving them space when they prefer quiet time. Currently, we have two cats in our home, so I am very familiar with their routines, behaviors, and the importance of creating a calm, safe environment. I’m comfortable caring for cats that are playful and social as well as those that are more shy or independent, and I always take the time to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for.
“Lynne was an excellent sitter! My dogs were well taken care of. She sent pics of our happy critters everyday. We will definitely book again with Lynne when needed. We appreciate her being so good to our little ones.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and grew up caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, and even reptiles. Over the past five years, my family has had a full house of pets, including one dog, two cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and a chameleon, so I’m very comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. In 2021, I completed training to have my golden retriever certified as a therapy dog. After becoming licensed, she worked alongside me in public schools, where she provided comfort and support to students. That experience strengthened my skills in handling, training, and understanding animals while ensuring they feel safe, calm, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to give animals plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. Since I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, consistent environment. Caring for animals is already part of my daily life with our own pets, so adding additional pet care feels like a natural extension of our routine. My home is very pet-friendly and used to having animals around. I have a family of five with three kids ages 11–16 who all love animals and are respectful of their personalities and space. Since I already have pets in our home, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing regular feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on making them feel safe and comfortable, just like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions the owner provides. My goal is always to make sure pets feel relaxed, well cared for, and loved while their owners are away.
“Morgan was phenomenal!! Not only did she work with me last minute with her having less than 1 hour notice but she went absolutely above and beyond to accommodate myself and my high maintence doberman - she saved me in a pinch and I could t be more grateful! Her hospitality and care was genuine and she was steps ahead of me for what I needed as she’s already experienced. I was traveling through St. Augustine and thank goodness she was available to work with me! Shocking bonus is my doberman was unusually calm with her when she’s typically uneasy with strangers the first time, she actually handled things very very well - says a lot!”
About: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds my entire life and truly treat every animal like my own. From playful pups to cuddly cats, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress free environment while you’re away. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, reliability, and the genuine bond I build with each pet, because they deserve more than just care, they deserve love. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my day around visits, feedings, walks, and check ins, making sure each pet gets reliable, consistent care and attention. I’m flexible and organized, so I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs while keeping everything running smoothly. “I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress free. In a client’s or even in my own home, I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention, playtime, or walks depending on their needs. I’m very respectful of each home and focus on giving pets consistent, loving care so they feel safe while their owners are away.
About: I have always watched all my families fur babies. They have been well loved just as my own. I’m always watching training videos on dog behavior as to be ready at all times and recognizing when to step in.

So I’m hoping to love on your fur-babies soon. I’m a stay at home mom. So I’m home almost all of my days unless I’m out running an errand or out with my sister doing an activity with my kids. But most of my days consist of being at home. I don’t have a fenced in yard but I have a really big back yard and open front yard and woods. We are back in the corner of the woods. I also have 2 big dogs that will help guide your dog on how to do things. I also have a crate if need be for a large breed dog if that’s something they are use too.

“I booked Nickeyias for doggy daycare and she took amazing care of my Bintley. He felt completely comfortable with her and her family from the start, and she treated him like he was part of her family. When I picked him up, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly enjoyed his day. I already scheduled his next visit — highly recommend!”
About: I provide a safe, calm, and cozy environment where pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, including following feeding schedules, administering basic medications, and giving extra attention to older dogs who may need slower walks or more comfort and patience. I also enjoy helping reinforce basic training for young pups, including potty breaks, leash walking, and positive behavior routines. I believe communication is very important, so I keep owners updated with photos, videos, and messages for peace of mind. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, safe, and cared for like family. 🤍 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved and comfortable.My schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your furry family members in someone else’s care. Whether it’s providing walks, playtime, or cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. I also enjoy getting outside for walks and nature trails, so your pup will get both exercise and love. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for your pet—whether you need daytime care, drop-in visits, or walks. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged best friend and give them the care they deserve. 💛 I’m available daily for doggy daycare and boarding.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a little girl. I have experience bathing them, feeding them and walking them. I enjoy going for walks around the community so this would not be a problem. I have two children ages 8 and 9 and they would enjoy spending time with your dog(s). I was a teacher by training but now work from home and am flexible. I am originally from Boston, MA and relocated to Charlotte, NC in 2018. I live in the Pineville area and although I would have no problem meeting you in your home, it would be better to meet me instead. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s) or cat(s). I currently work from from home so walking your dog every 3-4 hours is feasible with my schedule. I look forward to meeting your fury friend! I can also provide basic grooming such as a bath or brushing if needed for an additional fee. I look forward to caring for your fur baby!
About: Amo a las mascotas sobretodo los perros, sé que no son niños pero los trato tal cual respetuosa y cuidadora, me he criado con una mascota en casa desde mi infancia, mi primera mascota era un Rottweiler llamada Danger, ella era una belleza de perro, era grande e imponente, mi hermano y yo la entrenamos al punto que salía a caminar sin leash en la calle, acataba todas las ordenes que le dabamos, era muy inteligente. Al pasar de los años cuando conocí a mi esposo, el ya tenía un perro, era un poodle llamado Blacky el se convirtió rápidamente en mi bebe el no tenía muchos habitos de entrenamiento y con el pasar del tiempo le fui enseñando cosas básicas, como sentarse, dar la pata y caminar al lado sin que saliera corriendo sin leash, el falleció hace un par de años, su perdida fue muy dura de verdad. Y no hemos tenido más perros por los momentos, pero amigos y vecinos me han dado sus perros con lo ojos cerrados porque saben que los cuido muy bien, soy muy respetuosa y cariñosa, lo más importantes es que siempre busco de enseñarle algún truco, en mis fotos podrán ver algunos perros que he tenido cuidando varios dias, tengo a Toby que aparece en mi foto de perfil parecido a mi perro Blacky a Mila una cachorra hermosa, y luna una viejita hermosa. me gusta jugar con ellos y darle mucho amor. 🐕🦺Tener una mascota es mucha responsabilidad amor y paciencia. Estoy comenzando en esta app Rover formalmente y me gustaría cuidar a tu peludito. 🤗🐶 Actualmente trabajo por mi cuenta y estoy la gran parte de las veces en casa. Podría usar una parte de mi tiempo para visitar a tu mascota y recargar las energía con ella. Tengo un jardín súper grande y tengo bastante espacio para jugar con el o ella. Tambien en la urbanización puedo darle varias vueltas y conozcan la zona

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life from my own pets to pets of friends and family, which includes being responsible for them from time to time. I’ve even had prior experience staying overnight and caring for animals that include dogs, cats, and chickens. I am a full time student in law school so my schedule depends on my classes and my school obligations for the week. However, I try hard to manage all bookings I get if the owners are willing to be flexible with times! I can care for your pet by walking them, playing with them, feeding them, hugging them, grooming them, and even staying with them overnight if that makes them more comfortable while you are away.
About: For the past 4 years, I’ve provided loving, dependable care for cats, dogs, and birds through overnight stays, drop-in visits, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and walks. Cats are my specialty! I’m very experienced with feline behavior, shy cats and multi-cat households. I love making pets feel calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and routines, including daily walks, companionship, and overnight care. In addition, I have hands on experience with tropical birds and understand the importance of patience, consistency and attention to detail when caring for exotic pets. What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every animal! I take my time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort needs so they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I am reliable, communicative, and committed to making pet parents feel confident while they’re away through regular updates and attentive care. I am currently a part-time worker at a local pharmacy and a Full-Time college student looking to make extra money while doing what I love. I am free at least 3-4 days a week, the more notice the better I can work around your preferred schedule. My preference is afternoons, however if mornings or nights are needed I can accommodate! I am more free during week days but can make time on weekends around my work schedule as I typically only work 5-6 hour shifts. I currently can not offer my personal living quarters for care, however I am able to travel up to 40 miles to stay with or check on pets. If you are in need of someone urgently and live outside a 40 mile radius please message me directly and I may be able to still work with you! I will walk, feed, stay with, play with and care for various cats and dog breeds! I also have experience with tropical birds and fish if need be. I will clean up after all animals and leave your home tidy and neat, as well as provide updates at your desired time span i.e (Daily, Hourly, Etc.).
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was little. I’ve worked for two dog kennels that have provided me with efficient responsibility for the fur babies of other individuals.

I work a full time job during the year as an educator that has a set weekly schedule. I live in a home with my pets therefore I cannot provide day care. I can offer sitting and drop-in services. I can provide walks locally near your home or at a nearby park. I have plenty of references that will help you feel comfortable with my experience as an animal lover.
About: I have been around animals my whole life and pet sitting since middle school. I am comfortable with common house pets like cats and dogs as well as farm animals like horses and donkeys.

I am very patient with young dogs who are potty training, working on obedience skills and learning how to be a good citizen. I like to spend a lot of time outside so your dog(s) will enjoy quality time outside on walks/hikes, playing fetch, and even swimming. You will receive tons of photos (if you like, not everyone wants to be bothered while on vacay!) and daily updates! I work a full time remote job that is very flexible so I am able to take breaks as needed to provide pet care, take dogs for walks, etc. I previously worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility and am comfortable with a variety of dogs and their special needs, as well as clean up!

I am currently working remotely on a patent that allows me plenty of free time. I am available throughout the day and night to share my time with your pet. I volunteer at the humane society. I enjoy community involvement. Please let me know any additional important information I may need. If they prefer to be alone, their activity levels, area preferences, etc. I enjoy keeping the dogs active with walks, traveling to dog parks, and enjoying leisure time around the house.
About: My love for animals started when I worked at a shelter in my middle school years. My husband and I have one mini Goldendoodle, Franklin, who is friendly and energetic. He loves the company of other dogs and would certainly welcome your fur baby into our home! We also have a two year old daughter who adores dogs. We walk our dog daily in our neighborhood and would be happy to take yours with us. I am self-employed and primarily work from home, so I am able to give your dog the attention they deserve. We are most comfortable with small and medium dogs. We would love to care for your dog while you are enjoying your vacation or simply away from home! Thank you for considering us! I primarily work from home. When I am away from home for work on some evenings and Saturdays, my husband is usually home as he is a teacher and has evening and weekend flexibility. We coordinate our schedules to make sure one of us is available for your dog. We currently only board one dog at a time to ensure they are getting plenty of love and attention. We have a friendly Goldendoodle to keep your fur baby company. We also take daily walks and would be happy to bring your dog along with us. We have a medium sized crate if your dog needs to be crated, or they can sleep in a dog bed.
About: I’ve spent years caring for animals of all kinds—dogs, cats, and everything in between. With hands-on experience in feeding, grooming, training, and holistic wellness, I understand not just how to meet a pet’s needs, but how to truly connect with them. My approach is gentle, intuitive, and rooted in love. Whether it’s managing multiple pets or supporting animals with anxiety or medical needs, I’m dedicated to creating a calm, safe environment where every pet feels at home. I'm available for pretty much anything need. My schedule is very flexible. Throughout the day, I pay close attention to their moods, making time for play, brushing, or just sitting quietly with them when they need comfort. Their well-being is a priority in everything I do, and caring for them brings structure, peace, and purpose to my day. When I care for other people’s animals, I treat them like they’re my own—with patience, gentleness, and full attention. I take time to learn their routines, personalities, and needs, so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. Whether it’s feeding, cleaning, playing, or just sitting with a shy pet to help them feel calm, I make sure every moment is rooted in trust and love. I know how much animals mean to their families, and I do everything I can to give them peace of mind.
About: I have been around animals my entire life and grew up caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, and even reptiles. Over the past five years, my family has had a full house of pets, including one dog, two cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and a chameleon, so I’m very comfortable with a variety of animals and their unique needs. In 2021, I completed training to have my golden retriever certified as a therapy dog. After becoming licensed, she worked alongside me in public schools, where she provided comfort and support to students. That experience strengthened my skills in handling, training, and understanding animals while ensuring they feel safe, calm, and well cared for. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to give animals plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets are comfortable and well cared for. Since I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and can enjoy a calm, consistent environment. Caring for animals is already part of my daily life with our own pets, so adding additional pet care feels like a natural extension of our routine. My home is very pet-friendly and used to having animals around. I have a family of five with three kids ages 11–16 who all love animals and are respectful of their personalities and space. Since I already have pets in our home, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, providing regular feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on making them feel safe and comfortable, just like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions the owner provides. My goal is always to make sure pets feel relaxed, well cared for, and loved while their owners are away.

“Rachel is amazing! Very communicative and has the patience of a saint. She has walked my dogs when I’m away on long shifts at work and it gives me such a sense of comfort that she will be walking and visiting my pups.”

I believe communication is very important, so I keep owners updated with photos, videos, and messages for peace of mind. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, safe, and cared for like family. 🤍 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel loved and comfortable.My schedule allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention throughout the day.
