Olivia was wonderful and took such great care of Laci. She accepted the booking request pretty last minute and was very accommodating. She sent photos and a video of my dog and I felt very comfortable leaving Laci in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would use her again in the future. Laci had a great time!

Carey was an amazing sitter! She was responsive, open, and very attentive to my “Velcro-dog” that requires attention all the time. She updated me with pictures during my time away, and her whole family was very kind and loving to him. I absolutely will be booking with her in the future!

Again I get to Ms. Tasha's house and both dogs bolt into the house and don't even say bye to their mom... Just saying. My kids are always happy, safe and loved when they are there. It is such a nice piece of mind when I am far away and wherever. Thank you as always Ms. Tasha. See you again soon.

Donna and Calvin are a wonderful couple to entrust with our fur babies. Lots of room to run, walks on the trails, and tons of snuggles. Our boys enjoyed their stay and we were confident that they were well cared for.

Jenn and her son were so great with my dog, Mugsy. Mugsy is a little nervous around kids, but Jenn’s son was the perfect demeanor to put her at ease. They took Mugsy on plenty of walks and showed her lots of love. I would definitely hire Jenn again in the future for boarding!

Amy was great with communication and sending pics! It was very clear the dogs were well cared for. I appreciated her flexibility in terms of timing. (As we were road tripping with young children it was hard to guess exact drop off and pick up times.) If we are in the area again we will definitely book with Amy again! Thank you!

This was my first time using Rover and I was really nervous leaving Henry with someone I didn’t know. Thank goodness I found Gabrielle. From the very first conversation she put all my concerns at ease. My main request was to love Henry and treat him like her own. Everyday she sent me pictures and. Videos of Henry running and playing in her backyard with her pups. Henry literally had a smile on his face in all of the pictures. Gabrielle made everything so easy and worry free. I never had to ask about Henry because she was on top of giving me updates. Henry had so much fun he slept for two days after leaving her house. Henry and I can’t wait to use Gabrielle again. I highly recommend!!

This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!

Haley and her sweet daughter entertained my puppy really well during a short stay. He was on the last two days of his neutering care and she still accepted the job. He was fine at pickup as well. I appreciated the frequent communication and photos. And Haley took the time to find an item at the grocery store that he might like since he was being a picky eater and reviewed it with me. I had peace of mind during my work retreat in knowing that my puppy was in great hands.

About: You can trust me to take excellent care of your pet! As well as owning my own pets most of my life (dogs, cats, ferret, bird, rabbits, etc.), I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-veterinary medicine. I have pet-sat for several friends and clients, volunteered at shelters, worked at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, and for a professional dog walking / cat sitting company. You can rest easy as your pet will be safe in my care. I follow directions well and get the details right! Why I love dog walking and sitting: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. My first dog, Chief, helped raise me! Since then, I have owned a dog most of my life. Some have called me the "dog-whisperer". I have a pretty good perception of dogs and connect very easily with most. My last dog, Wendell, was a 150 lb. mastiff whom I adopted when he was 4.5 years old. He had never been socialized and was scared of most people, so in the six years we were together, I gained a lot of first-hand experience working through behavioral issues in a very large and strong breed. Our current dog is Lucy, a happy-go-lucky bull terrier who is deaf. She loves every living being! I’m also comfortable taking care of cats and other pets. My experience administering medication: I've given lots of oral meds and various ointments, eye drops, ear drops, etc. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m typically available any day of the week and can do early mornings and late evenings if needed. Let me know your needs and I will do my best to accommodate! ONE DOG FAMILY AT A TIME Boarding and Doggie Day Care: It will only be your dog(s) and our one dog staying at our house. We have a secure, fenced yard, a doggie door, and a covered back patio with doggie beds perfect for lounging in the sun or shade. Our friendly bull terrier, Lucy, will happily keep your dog company! We can easily keep your dog in a separate room while we are away from the house if you prefer. Lucy’s dad/my significant other, Pedro, also lives here and also loves animals.

My dog stayed with Sue-Ling, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog. Kind, patient, and really attentive to her needs. It was clear from the start that Sue-Ling truly loves animals and treats them like her own. There was a small health issue while I was away, but Sue-Ling handled everything calmly and responsibly. She kept me updated right away and made sure my dog was comfortable and safe. I felt completely reassured knowing she was in such good hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Sue-Ling gave to my dog, and I would absolutely trust her to look after her again anytime. She’s amazing!

​Stephanie is an absolute gem and a total natural with dogs. From the moment she met Squishy, it was clear that she didn’t just see this as a job—she truly loves her with her whole heart. ​Beyond her obvious bond with animals, Stephanie is a pleasure to work with. She is: ​Kind and Considerate: She always maintains a warm, professional, and thoughtful demeanor. ​Incredibly Helpful: She frequently goes out of her way to assist with extra details or scheduling needs, making my life so much easier. ​Reliable: I never have to worry when Squishy is in her care. ​If you are looking for someone who is patient, communicative, and will treat your pet like a member of her own family, I cannot recommend Stephanie highly enough!

About: My parents had two cats from before I was born. They lived till I was about 14 and allowed me to become very familiar with having a cat as a pet. One was also particularly feisty so I also know how to deal with cats that are a little more on the scratchy side. Overall, I'm a big cat person and would love to watch over any paws thrown my way!

About: I’ve always connected well with animals, especially dogs. I’ve dog walked and watched others’ animals from a very young age. I was 22 when I decided to become a dog trainer. I was fortunate enough to attend one of the best programs in the country at Animal Behavior College, with a certificate in canine behavior therapy & a concentration in rehabilitating shelter dogs. I’m also qualified to train emotional support animals, which has been so rewarding. I chose this as a career path because of how much I genuinely love all living things. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them the best care they could ask for! I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can tend to whatever schedule best suits the animals. I don’t have pets of my own, so that gives me even more flexibility. I always make sure I’m doing my best to care for animals, in any aspect of my life or career. I’m diligent in making sure their feeding, walking and play schedules are upheld promptly, and that their routines stay relatively in tact. This is one of the best things you can do to ease a pet’s anxiety about their owners being away. I work as a trainer, which means I’m happy to add on training sessions with your pet while they’re in my care, through my business if that’s something of interest. I’m very amenable to the specifications for each individual animal. Some dogs like to be given affection on the couch for a few minutes each day. Others might enjoy watching the birds in their yard for a while. I’m always happy to attune my care for each dog. When walking a dog, the quality of the walks are just as important as their frequency. Dogs require a certain level of mental stimulation each day, and ten minutes of sniffing is enough to satisfy most dog’s needs. They need the sniffing as much as the exercise. Your dog will be given ample time to sniff and “read the doggy newspaper”, as well as get some great exercise. I always make sure the animal has gotten everything that they need from the experience.

About: We have been taking care of dogs since 2018! We are so enjoying it!! Hubby walks the dogs and I cuddle and play! It's a win win for your fur baby! For doggie day care we are available between 8 am and 6pm Monday through Friday. Would love long term . We do have one small dog. For boarding we are available both weekdays and weekends. We have a nice fenced-in backyard and my husband takes the dogs out for walks when possible! When that option isn't available,they have dedicated playtime in the yard.We have one dog that is not initially playful but takes a while to warm up but he does typically! I do require a meet and greet before committing and for pets to show proof of rabies shots,heartworm and flea and tic treatments. I work part time outside the home but my hubby works part time in the home so rarely are we both gone at the same time. I have a fenced in yard and my husband tries to walk our dog daily.Typically will hit the area walking trails. If necessary, he is willing to walk animals separately(older dog who can not walk as long or dogs who have health challenges)Our dog is aloof and takes a bit of time to adjust but usually does. We are attentive to this and supervise very closely until we see how things are going to be. We own both a large and small dog crate and can separate them if needed

About: What makes me stand out is that caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and I’ve seen them in every season of life—from playful pups to gentle seniors. That foundation gives me a deep understanding of their needs, quirks, and love languages. Here are a few things I bring to the table: Specialized care for puppies & seniors: I have experience with puppy training basics (potty training, socialization, gentle commands) as well as senior care (slower walks, mobility support, extra comfort). Medical competence: I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health changes, and following vet instructions scrupulously. Attentive, personal care: I don’t treat your dog like a “task” — I treat them like family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and subtle signals. Open communication: You’ll never be in the dark. I’ll send you updates (photos, notes) and make sure you feel confident about their well-being while you’re away. Reliability & responsibility: When I commit to caring for your dog, I honor that commitment. You can count on me to be present, prompt, and fully invested in their happiness. In short: I don’t just provide a service — I provide peace of mind, with the same love and care I’d give my own dog. Hi, I’m Thomas! I moved to Wilmington from Louisiana about seven years ago with my pups, and we’ve loved every moment here! Whether we’re out exploring or just soaking up the sun in the yard, we make the most of every day. I currently have two wonderful rescues—Goose, my loyal 11-year-old Doberman, and Mattie, my playful 2-year-old pit mix. They’re not just pets; they’re family. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry friends, and I’d treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! My top priority is ensuring your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being. As a devoted pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have complete peace of mind while you're away. You can trust that with me, your pets will always be in great hands—loved, cared for, and treated like family!

Medication administration, food/water restrictions/encouragement, comfort measures including pet massage /muscle tension release, emotional support. Do you have a scorpion? Fish? Bunny? Amphibian?

I provide active play with all pets interested in playtime inside and outside, or provide hugs and kisses to the less-actively inclined.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every size since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to feed, play/exercise, bathe/groom, and love their pets while traveling, moving, or working. Are the morning walks not cutting it for your pup? Do they still have too much energy during the day? Now introducing “Dog Jogs!” Instead of a walk around the block, I will take your dog on a couple mile jog, solo or with other pups, to use up that puppy energy so they will sleep all day while you’re working. Additionally, I work from home and have plenty of time throughout the day for regular exercise and bathroom breaks. I live in a dog friendly community on the first floor with direct access to a large, grassy backyard. Your pet will be looked after at all times during the day, and would never be left alone. I do not have my own pets at this time, and your fur baby would receive all the love and attention it deserves.

About: Having grown up on a farm, I have been around animals all my life. Currently, I live behind the university with my two cavaliers on a little less than an acre. My two are wonderful with other dogs and looking for some playmates. My fenced-in backyard makes for the perfect playground, and your dogs will be free to come and go as they please from inside to the fenced in area. I have boarded as many as 4 dogs at one time and have cared for senior dogs (18+). Reach out for information on boarding opportunities and/or for additional details. I am here full-time and available currently for boarding any time of the day as well as on weekends. I maintain full care of my two, so the more, the merrier! I have a fenced-in backyard that allows for safe and carefree playtime. My two dogs are very friendly and are sure to make for excellent playmates.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. While I don't currently have pets at my apartment where I'll be pet sitting, my family has five dogs, so I'm very familiar with caring for multiple dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I volunteered with a local animal rescue throughout all four years of high school, where I cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments by walking, feeding, socializing, and helping them feel safe and comfortable while they waited to find their forever homes. During that time, I also served as a foster, providing temporary homes for rescue dogs and helping them adjust to a loving environment. These experiences taught me patience, responsibility, and how to build trust with animals. In college, I served as the Treasurer for UNCW's Service Dog Training and Education Program (STEP) for two years. While I'm not a professional dog trainer, my involvement with the organization gave me valuable experience working alongside service dogs and handlers. I'm happy to reinforce basic training, good manners, and routines while your pet is in my care. One thing that sets me apart is that I work from home, which means your pet will receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. They'll rarely be left alone, and I'll be able to stick closely to their normal routine, whether that means regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company. I understand that every pet is unique, and my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I'll care for your pet as if they were one of my own and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy complete peace of mind. Because I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm able to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and supervised care throughout the day. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods, and I can easily accommodate their normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and at ease. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide morning, afternoon, and evening care. Whether your pet needs an active day filled with walks and play or simply a calm, cozy environment with lots of love and attention, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, and any special instructions so I can provide care that's as close to home as possible. Because I work from home, I'll be with your pet for most of the day to provide supervision, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment where your pet will have a safe, calm environment to relax and feel at home. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member, and I'll treat your pet with the same love and attention I'd give my own.

About: I have been around dogs since I was born. My parents have always had at least one dog running around the house, and I now have one myself that lives with me! Layla has gotten ne through some tough times and with that being said I know how important dogs (and cats) are in our lives. I would love to be a sitter, walker, and caregiver to anyone's furry necessity! I am a full time student! Which means that I usually have school all week! I am free after 5pm every day of the week and on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays all day! I have my 3 year old dog named Layla that is very friendly to all dogs! She is playful and loves to meet new friends! I walk her 3-4 times daily because I don't have a fenced yard. This will also be the case if I am boarding a dog! If your dog is crate trained I have a medium sized crate that they can sleep in overnight! I am open to walking as often as needed and will follow routines to a tee!

About: What makes me stand out is that caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and I’ve seen them in every season of life—from playful pups to gentle seniors. That foundation gives me a deep understanding of their needs, quirks, and love languages. Here are a few things I bring to the table: Specialized care for puppies & seniors: I have experience with puppy training basics (potty training, socialization, gentle commands) as well as senior care (slower walks, mobility support, extra comfort). Medical competence: I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health changes, and following vet instructions scrupulously. Attentive, personal care: I don’t treat your dog like a “task” — I treat them like family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and subtle signals. Open communication: You’ll never be in the dark. I’ll send you updates (photos, notes) and make sure you feel confident about their well-being while you’re away. Reliability & responsibility: When I commit to caring for your dog, I honor that commitment. You can count on me to be present, prompt, and fully invested in their happiness. In short: I don’t just provide a service — I provide peace of mind, with the same love and care I’d give my own dog. Hi, I’m Thomas! I moved to Wilmington from Louisiana about seven years ago with my pups, and we’ve loved every moment here! Whether we’re out exploring or just soaking up the sun in the yard, we make the most of every day. I currently have two wonderful rescues—Goose, my loyal 11-year-old Doberman, and Mattie, my playful 2-year-old pit mix. They’re not just pets; they’re family. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry friends, and I’d treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! My top priority is ensuring your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being. As a devoted pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have complete peace of mind while you're away. You can trust that with me, your pets will always be in great hands—loved, cared for, and treated like family!

About: I’ve always connected well with animals, especially dogs. I’ve dog walked and watched others’ animals from a very young age. I was 22 when I decided to become a dog trainer. I was fortunate enough to attend one of the best programs in the country at Animal Behavior College, with a certificate in canine behavior therapy & a concentration in rehabilitating shelter dogs. I’m also qualified to train emotional support animals, which has been so rewarding. I chose this as a career path because of how much I genuinely love all living things. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them the best care they could ask for! I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can tend to whatever schedule best suits the animals. I don’t have pets of my own, so that gives me even more flexibility. I always make sure I’m doing my best to care for animals, in any aspect of my life or career. I’m diligent in making sure their feeding, walking and play schedules are upheld promptly, and that their routines stay relatively in tact. This is one of the best things you can do to ease a pet’s anxiety about their owners being away. I work as a trainer, which means I’m happy to add on training sessions with your pet while they’re in my care, through my business if that’s something of interest. I’m very amenable to the specifications for each individual animal. Some dogs like to be given affection on the couch for a few minutes each day. Others might enjoy watching the birds in their yard for a while. I’m always happy to attune my care for each dog. When walking a dog, the quality of the walks are just as important as their frequency. Dogs require a certain level of mental stimulation each day, and ten minutes of sniffing is enough to satisfy most dog’s needs. They need the sniffing as much as the exercise. Your dog will be given ample time to sniff and “read the doggy newspaper”, as well as get some great exercise. I always make sure the animal has gotten everything that they need from the experience.

Walker is dependable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. My dog gets excited every time they arrive, which says everything I need to know. Communication is excellent, with updates and photos that make me feel connected even when I’m away. Walker is always punctual, attentive to my dog’s needs, and goes above and beyond to ensure every walk is safe, fun, and enriching. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pet like their own, Jennifer is the perfect choice. Five stars!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. What started as overnight visits for family friends, quickly grew into referrals and neighbors trusting me with their furry loved ones. Over the past 15 years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with daily walks, administering medications, preparing special diets, and providing individualized care. Most importantly, I bring a fun, playful, and compassionate approach to every pet I meet. They deserve to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I grew up with 2 Labradors, and currently have a Labrador of my own. I also had 2 cats while I was in college. I currently work part-time as a real estate agent, which means I have plenty of time to give your pups the love, attention, and play they deserve. I am open during the weekday or on most weekends! In Your Home When I care for pets in their own home, I make sure to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. Whether that’s mealtime, walks, medications, or cuddle time. I also give plenty of updates and photos so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. In My Home If your pet is staying with me, they’ll be treated like family. I provide a safe, cozy space with lots of playtime, walks, and snuggles, along with any special food or care instructions you provide. I also have a fully vaccinated Labrador puppy who would love to have a friend to hangout with!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all of my life. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. When I was in middle school I would go door to door to walk peoples dog's. I worked in a dog daycare in New York which I really in enjoyed. I prefer animals than people! I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have lots of time to keep your doggie or cat occupied. Saturdays and Sundays I’m off from my part time job so I’m home all day!! I have an extra room that will have lots of toys for them to play with and I’ll take them on walks around the neighborhood or at the park!

About: I have always had a deep affection for animals from a young age. It is a privilege for me to have the opportunity to work with animals. Currently, l am the caretaker of five dogs and 3 cats in my household and actively participate in their daily care alongside other family members. Apart from my own pets, I have gained experience in pet sitting on multiple occasions. During the academic year, I assist my aunt, who is a teacher, by attending to her dog daily and ensuring its well-being while she is at work. I also would care for my 16 year old dog on a daily basis for 5+ years. Being I have lots of pets of my own, animal care is part of my daily routine. On the daily I’m able to safely care for my animals and clean up after them. I am proficient in providing standard animal care services.Depending on the service, this includes feeding, bathing, cleaning up after, playing with, and of course, showering animals with unconditional love!

Olivia was wonderful and took such great care of Laci. She accepted the booking request pretty last minute and was very accommodating. She sent photos and a video of my dog and I felt very comfortable leaving Laci in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would use her again in the future. Laci had a great time!

Carey was an amazing sitter! She was responsive, open, and very attentive to my “Velcro-dog” that requires attention all the time. She updated me with pictures during my time away, and her whole family was very kind and loving to him. I absolutely will be booking with her in the future!

Again I get to Ms. Tasha's house and both dogs bolt into the house and don't even say bye to their mom... Just saying. My kids are always happy, safe and loved when they are there. It is such a nice piece of mind when I am far away and wherever. Thank you as always Ms. Tasha. See you again soon.

Jenn and her son were so great with my dog, Mugsy. Mugsy is a little nervous around kids, but Jenn’s son was the perfect demeanor to put her at ease. They took Mugsy on plenty of walks and showed her lots of love. I would definitely hire Jenn again in the future for boarding!

Amy was great with communication and sending pics! It was very clear the dogs were well cared for. I appreciated her flexibility in terms of timing. (As we were road tripping with young children it was hard to guess exact drop off and pick up times.) If we are in the area again we will definitely book with Amy again! Thank you!

This was my first time using Rover and I was really nervous leaving Henry with someone I didn’t know. Thank goodness I found Gabrielle. From the very first conversation she put all my concerns at ease. My main request was to love Henry and treat him like her own. Everyday she sent me pictures and. Videos of Henry running and playing in her backyard with her pups. Henry literally had a smile on his face in all of the pictures. Gabrielle made everything so easy and worry free. I never had to ask about Henry because she was on top of giving me updates. Henry had so much fun he slept for two days after leaving her house. Henry and I can’t wait to use Gabrielle again. I highly recommend!!

This was our second stay with Jordan, and I realized I never left a review after the first one. However, I definitely should have! As a first time Rover user, in fact the first time ever leaving my 9-year old pup with a stranger, I was incredibly nervous about leaving my dog with someone new. Jordan completely exceeded my expectations. He sent thoughtful updates throughout the stay with a plethora of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was obvious that my dog was being loved and well cared for. Not only is Jordan amazing, but his family is so kind and welcoming. You can truly tell they care about the dogs they watch and treat them like part of the family. Knowing my pup was safe, happy, and surrounded by so much love made all the difference. I can't thank Jordan enough for taking such great care of my dog, Lily. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend booking with him. We'll definitely be back!

Haley and her sweet daughter entertained my puppy really well during a short stay. He was on the last two days of his neutering care and she still accepted the job. He was fine at pickup as well. I appreciated the frequent communication and photos. And Haley took the time to find an item at the grocery store that he might like since he was being a picky eater and reviewed it with me. I had peace of mind during my work retreat in knowing that my puppy was in great hands.

About: You can trust me to take excellent care of your pet! As well as owning my own pets most of my life (dogs, cats, ferret, bird, rabbits, etc.), I also have a Bachelor of Science degree in pre-veterinary medicine. I have pet-sat for several friends and clients, volunteered at shelters, worked at veterinary clinics, boarding facilities, and for a professional dog walking / cat sitting company. You can rest easy as your pet will be safe in my care. I follow directions well and get the details right! Why I love dog walking and sitting: I have been a dog lover since the day I was born. My first dog, Chief, helped raise me! Since then, I have owned a dog most of my life. Some have called me the "dog-whisperer". I have a pretty good perception of dogs and connect very easily with most. My last dog, Wendell, was a 150 lb. mastiff whom I adopted when he was 4.5 years old. He had never been socialized and was scared of most people, so in the six years we were together, I gained a lot of first-hand experience working through behavioral issues in a very large and strong breed. Our current dog is Lucy, a happy-go-lucky bull terrier who is deaf. She loves every living being! I’m also comfortable taking care of cats and other pets. My experience administering medication: I've given lots of oral meds and various ointments, eye drops, ear drops, etc. My schedule is pretty flexible. I’m typically available any day of the week and can do early mornings and late evenings if needed. Let me know your needs and I will do my best to accommodate! ONE DOG FAMILY AT A TIME Boarding and Doggie Day Care: It will only be your dog(s) and our one dog staying at our house. We have a secure, fenced yard, a doggie door, and a covered back patio with doggie beds perfect for lounging in the sun or shade. Our friendly bull terrier, Lucy, will happily keep your dog company! We can easily keep your dog in a separate room while we are away from the house if you prefer. Lucy’s dad/my significant other, Pedro, also lives here and also loves animals.

There aren't enough good things to say about Andy. I very rarely board my dog, but after a week with him she might as well have been with me. He took peach in like a dog of his own and I wouldn't hesitate to give him a call! If give 6 stars if I could!

About: What makes me stand out is that caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and I’ve seen them in every season of life—from playful pups to gentle seniors. That foundation gives me a deep understanding of their needs, quirks, and love languages. Here are a few things I bring to the table: Specialized care for puppies & seniors: I have experience with puppy training basics (potty training, socialization, gentle commands) as well as senior care (slower walks, mobility support, extra comfort). Medical competence: I’m comfortable administering medications, monitoring health changes, and following vet instructions scrupulously. Attentive, personal care: I don’t treat your dog like a “task” — I treat them like family. I take time to learn their routines, preferences, and subtle signals. Open communication: You’ll never be in the dark. I’ll send you updates (photos, notes) and make sure you feel confident about their well-being while you’re away. Reliability & responsibility: When I commit to caring for your dog, I honor that commitment. You can count on me to be present, prompt, and fully invested in their happiness. In short: I don’t just provide a service — I provide peace of mind, with the same love and care I’d give my own dog. Hi, I’m Thomas! I moved to Wilmington from Louisiana about seven years ago with my pups, and we’ve loved every moment here! Whether we’re out exploring or just soaking up the sun in the yard, we make the most of every day. I currently have two wonderful rescues—Goose, my loyal 11-year-old Doberman, and Mattie, my playful 2-year-old pit mix. They’re not just pets; they’re family. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry friends, and I’d treat yours with the same love and attention I give my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! My top priority is ensuring your pet's happiness, safety, and well-being. As a devoted pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have complete peace of mind while you're away. You can trust that with me, your pets will always be in great hands—loved, cared for, and treated like family!
