“Juli comes highly recommended, and we were pleased with our dog Lindy's first experience with her. Juli is knowledgeable and patient, which was so helpful because Lindy is shy until she feels comfortable with new people. We got some tips from Juli on how to help with this, which we appreciated. Thanks!”
“I will definitely be booking with James again. This was our furbaby first time away from us and she did absolute amazing wit James. Thank you for taking care of her, the updates & care meant everything to us & we appreciate you.”
“Rob was great with our girls. This was an acclimation visit to familiarize. This family is very understanding of special needs & requests. Our pups were well taken care of. We believe we have found our care team.”
“Amazing service. She took great care of my dog and had great communication with me, providing updates and pictures. Would definitely use again and recommend to anyone.”
“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”
“Heather was amazing with Milo! She provided regular updates with photos, and made sure he was as comfortable as possible. She was very responsive leading up to dropping him off, and was kind throughout the entire process. I truly appreciate Heather watching my pup and would recommend her to any dog parent! ☺️”
“This is our second time using Flora. Lots of pictures and videos. The dogs were so loved while they were there! She is a great communicator and was flexible with a change in plans. We are hoping we get to use her one more time while we are in the area!”
“Morgan took great care of my dog! She kept me up to date at all times and sent me many pictures as evidence that my dog was having a lot of fun! Whenever I need someone to care for my dog, Morgan will be the first on the list!”
About: I have always had a pet growing up. I used to have cats when I was little and then eventually turned to dogs. Currently back at home I have three dogs that I love so so so much. Here in Greenville I share custody of a dog, Saint, with my boyfriend. I love to walk so that is no problem for me when it comes to walking dogs. I also worked as an assistant for almost two years where one of my main priorities was taking care of her pitty :) I currently work part time so my availability is pretty open! I spend a lot of my time outside on walks, so it only makes sense that I open the door to including pets on my walk. I do stay in an apartment so I don't have yard space for pets, but I am willing to drive to dog parks or walking trails. I also don't mind going to other peoples home to care for their animals.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always loved helping care for them. From feeding and walking to playtime and giving them attention, caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Since COVID, I’ve pet sat for numerous families and currently have a daily schedule walking dogs for multiple households. Last year, I got my first dog in my own home, and she absolutely loves joining me on walks and playing with other animals too! I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I treat every animal like family. I am a teacher so I have summer off! Along with that, once school starts back I am happy to help on the weekends and in the afternoons. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, I provide a clean, calm environment with regular walks, playtime, fresh water, and close supervision. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully to maintain their pet’s normal routine. I make sure they are fed on time, walked safely, given attention, and kept comfortable, while also respecting the client’s home and providing updates when needed.
“Jessica was an amazing Sitter. She’s a great care of our Sheepadoodle. He loved being there she must update it on how he was doing and sent us lots of pictures. I would highly recommend her to watch your dog.”
“Olivia was amazing! We left our 7m kitten with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent us daily updates and pictures, which made us feel so comfortable knowing he was happy and well taken care of. He absolutely loved staying with her! He got along so well with her male cat and even had fun with her two kids. Olivia was so sweet, caring, and attentive, and we could tell our kitten was genuinely happy and comfortable with her. We would 100% recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”

“Elizabeth did an awesome job with my cat. You can tell she loves all animals and they love her!! She is a good communicator and was always punctual. I will definitely have her watch my cat again. And I will recommend her to my friends and family. Thank you Elizabeth.”
“If I could give more stars I would. Jenna was great. This was my first time ever using Rover. She went above and beyond visiting our 3 cats, two of which are a bit needy emotionally. She kept us well informed about what she & they were doing. She sent us tons of pictures and even a video. She even got our older cat to play (amazing). Don’t be afraid to use Jenna as your pets caregiver. She will care for them as if they were her own.”
About: I have been bringing home and taking in animals ever since 2010 when I was in 5th grade. I have always put a lot of time, patience, love, sweat and money into my own animals. I try to give my babies the best quality of life that I can provide and I intend to do the same while yours are in my care! I have a tremendous amount of love & respect for all animals. I also have a lot of experience with multiple different breeds because I've had numerous dogs, a cat & a leopard gecko. Some duties I can help assist with include potty training, walking, teaching training commands & any senior/special needs care. If needed I can administer oral liquid medications, as well as pills and I can change diapers too. I am a stay at home dog mommy and I run a small business as well. So I generally have a lot of time, love & space to offer at my house throughout the week for guests. I'd love to take care of your babies or walk them to help you out with your busy schedule! !!!NEW DAYCARE INQUIRIES PLEASE READ!!! :) DUE TO HIGH VOLUME OF CLIENTS IVE HAD TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO MY DAYCARE HOURS THEY ARE NOW FROM 8AM-8PM. **My base rate of $35/day ensures your baby with up to 12 hours per day in my care!

“Madison was extremely helpful with my Maverick. Not only did she accommodate pick up and drop off times, but she was also able to sense Maverick was overwhelmed on the first day, and took the time to get to know him. By the second day, he was much more relaxed with her and Benji, so I know he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend and book again. Thanks, Madison!”

“Jessica and her family were simply amazing. Such engaging, pleasant, happy people to interact with. Our dogs instantly connected with them when they arrived and they were snuggling with them on the grass when we returned to pick them up. Along the way they had fun, based on the pictures they sent us, hanging out with them and their two dogs. It was exactly what our dogs needed - to be stimulated with new experiences, make new friends, and burn off lots of energy - while their human parents had a day away. It’s very apparent Jessica knows her stuff when it comes to animals. Further, we took great comfort in them having a fully fenced yard so that we knew our dogs wouldn’t accidentally get out. We would not hesitate to use Jessica again or refer her to others.”

With 30 years of service at the North Carolina Department of Public Safety, caring for others has always been my calling. That dedication extends to animals, too.

About: I am from Colombia and there I had the opportunity to work with him, in a family veterinarian where I learned a lot. Here in the United States I have been taking care of dogs and cats at home several times. It is important, since animals are part of my life and always will be, I also dream of one day having the money to be able to give a good life to several animals that currently live in a shelter. I keep them company, I sing to them, I play with them, I walk them, when they sleep in my house I always make them comfortable and I am aware of all their behavior, especially because I know they miss their owners.
About: Hi, I'm Taz! I'm 25 years old and have over 6 years of experience caring for and watching dogs. I provide dependable, loving care for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. My experience as an animal rescue volunteer and foster caregiver has taught me how to work with shy, anxious, and special-needs pets, helping them feel safe and comfortable while their families are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I strive to provide personalized care that keeps them happy, healthy, and stress free. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home throughout the day and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide consistent attention, feeding, playtime, litter box maintenance, and companionship for the cats in my care. Being home also means I can closely monitor pets, stick to their regular routines, and give them the extra attention they may need. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident their cats are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home or mine, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of affection based on each cat's personality and comfort level. I also monitor their behavior and well-being, provide basic medications if needed, and keep pet parents updated with photos and messages during each visit.

About: Hi neighbors! 🐾 I’m looking to help more families in our community by providing high-quality pet sitting. I’ve spent the last 30 years surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. Whether you have a timid tabby, a playful puppy, or a senior who needs a little extra patience and medicine, I have the hands-on experience to handle it all. I know how hard it is to leave your fur-babies, so I prioritize reliable communication and genuine affection. Your pets won’t just be supervised, they’ll be loved! Because I work from home full-time, your pet becomes my 'office mate' for the day. They won't be waiting by the door for hours or stuck in a crate; instead, they’ll enjoy constant companionship, mid-day belly rubs, and a watchful eye. Whether they prefer to nap at my feet while I’m on a call or need a quick play break in the yard, I’m here to provide the undivided attention and 'full-time love' they deserve. Leaving your pet is never easy, which is why I treat your trust as a sacred bond. With 30+ years of hands-on experience, I have developed a "sixth sense" for animal behavior and well-being. I don't just watch your pets; I actively monitor their health, happiness, and safety.

About: Hi!! I am a rising sophomore at ECU and my family and I just moved to Garner from New York. I am looking for dog care jobs over my summer break so I am available all day every day until I go back to school. I am a morning person and like starting my days quite early so any of you need anything in the morning, I would love to help! I absolutely adore dogs and everything about them! Any time there is one in the room I am drawn to it and it gets my undivided love and attention. Most of my family and friends call me the dog whisperer because all dogs love me too! I have been sitting for a little over two years and have experience with all ages, sizes and breeds. I love being outside and active, and going on walks is one of my favorite things to do. I also don’t mind picking up after the dogs. (Someones gotta do it lol). My family has had 2 dogs of our own but both are no longer with us anymore. They were my built in best friends and most of the time I enjoyed their company over my family’s. I have so much free time on my hands that I can work with as many that I possibly can! I like being up early and don’t mind being out all day. I can keep your gates and doors locked while we are inside. Make sure the dog is always on a leash before opening a door for a walk.

About: Hi there! I’m Z, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep understanding of both cats and dogs. I’ve grown up with dogs and have a wonderful cat of my own. I also have years of experience caring for the pets of both my family and friends. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or ensuring your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every furry friend like they’re part of my own family. As someone who works part-time during the day, I have the flexibility to provide pet care in the mornings, evenings, and weekends.

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and happy in their familiar surroundings. I stick to their established routines, whether it’s feeding schedules, playtime, or walks, to keep things consistent and comforting for them. For dogs, that might mean exciting walks or outdoor play, while cats might prefer quiet companionship or engaging with their favorite toys.

“Juli comes highly recommended, and we were pleased with our dog Lindy's first experience with her. Juli is knowledgeable and patient, which was so helpful because Lindy is shy until she feels comfortable with new people. We got some tips from Juli on how to help with this, which we appreciated. Thanks!”

“Monica and her husband were the absolute best!! During our meet and greet I immediately felt comfortable with them. I have had a previous meet and greet experience where I felt uncomfortable within a few minutes and felt pressured to choose that home. Monica let Peyton become comfortable with her and her husband before introducing their fur baby. We stayed long enough to ensure everyone would be a good fit for each other. I received videos and pictures while Peyton was there and I could tell he was receiving plenty of love and cuddles whoch was very important to me. My fur baby did not seem stressed or uncared for when I picked him up. If you want a good home for your fur baby and piece of mind while you are away, I would definitely recommend Monica. You will not regret your choice.”
