“Katie & Jeremy were great at communicating and sending pictures of our dogs stay with them. Creature seemed to have a great time and fit in well with them. Def would use them again!”
“I have left my little pup with Jose and Maria several times over the last year or so. They really treat her as part of their family and she gets so excited when we pull up to their house. Their daily pictures and videos are so reassuring that all is well. I highly recommend them!!”
“Nancy's small farm setting is perfect for dogs who enjoy being outside, snuffling around the paddock, or making friends through the fence with ducks, chickens, a llama, and a donkey! Her dog-centric space is equally suitable for your four-legged couch-potatoes, who will enjoy air-conditioning and comfy beds while they hang out with Nancy while she works. It's a win-win for everyone! A friendly welcome and regular updates throughout their stay put any pet owner at ease. My dogs can't wait for me to go on vacation again :D”
“Pisco had a wonderful time with Alexis. Long walks, regular attention, and a nice place to relax. We appreciated her regular stream of photos. Highly recommend Alexis. We'll use her again.”
“Bella seemed to really enjoy her stay with Kali! My fiancé and I really appreciated Kali’s responsiveness and willingness to work with our schedules. She even sent us a picture showing Bella settled in bed which we greatly adored. Thanks Kali!”
“Terri has watched my pup a few times now and it's been great each time! The most recent time was for a whole week. I was concerned about finding someone who could handle a wild and not-yet fully trained puppy and Terri has been so sweet, gracious and relaxed about everything. She even sent me photo/video so I could see how Zelda was doing. I love the farm atmosphere that Terri provides. She's clearly a true animal lover and Zelda seems to enjoy spending time visiting with both the human and animal friends she's made at Terri's. So glad we found someone capable, trustworthy and kind!”
“Sarah watched our dog for two nights while we stayed at the Grove Park Inn. This was a great option since the hotel pet fee was $350! Thank you, Sarah, for caring for our pup!”
“This was JoJo’s first boarding experience. He seemed to have had a great time playing with the other dogs. Kristen took the time to send messages and photos of JoJo enjoying himself while we were gone. We will definitely use Kristen again.”
“Both of our dogs had a great stay. Our old dog always travels with us - but she could not go on this trip. She ended up doing great! We really appreciated the messages and pictures during our trip!”
“I’d give Vicky 10 stars if I could. Lucy loved her time with Vicky and I felt at ease knowing she was being well loved. Vicky sent us multiple videos of Lucy, which made our time apart much more comforting. Many thanks to you, Vicky”
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Paul was phenomenal from the get go. From the meet and greet to Mavis coming home communication was amazing. He sent updates and videos as Mavis settled in and adjusted. I highly recommend him to everyone. You won’t regret it. We will be booking with him again.”
“Kathleen was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Remy! From the moment we connected, she was attentive, patient, caring, and kind. She kept in touch with us daily, sending sweet updates and adorable pictures that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Remy was happy, healthy, and in loving hands. Kathleen went above and beyond by meeting me at a convenient halfway point between our homes, making the entire process so easy and stress-free. She was a delight to work with—professional, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. We will absolutely be using her again, without question. Highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Kaitlyn and her family were so wonderful to our dog, Cocoa! They treated her like their own and she was so spoiled staying with them! Kaitlyn sent several photo updates throughout each day! She took Cocoa on multiple daily walks, made sure she ate her food, gave her a new toy, and even sent her home with a new bandana! It was purr-fect!”
“Brody was an excellent choice for Pepper! We needed to keep her calm and limit her movement due to medical restrictions and we felt she was extremely safe in Brody’s care. He went above and beyond to ensure she was safe and comfortable and I would 100% bring any of my pets back to him in the future!!”
“Hope and her family are animal lovers and it shows. They were flexible about drop off and pickup times and weren't offended when I asked for a meet and greet before leaving our dog.”
“Joseph and his family were amazing with our sweet Lucy! Communication was great and I got pictures and updates everyday. You can tell Joseph knows what he’s doing and genuinely cares about animals. Lucy was spoiled and loved on the entire time and we will definitely be taking her back. Highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for animals who need a little extra patience, attention, and understanding. I have experience working with older dogs and sick animals, which has taught me how important it is to pay attention to the little things and recognize when a pet may not be feeling their best. I understand that every animal has different needs, routines, and personalities, and I’m happy to adjust my care to make them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or older and needs a slower pace, I’ll treat them with the same care and compassion I would want for my own pets.
“Highly recommend Lauren! We appreciated her willingness to do a meet/greet and even more so appreciated her communication while we were away. Thankful to have found someone that took such good care of our two cats”
“Autumn was amazing to work with! We were thankful for the meet and greet to ensure she would be amazing with our cats - we knew right away she would be a good fit. Communication was quick and we were grateful for all the updates.”
“Alex was so friendly and professional. I appreciate his thorough reports and all the photos. Alex made me feel comfortable leaving my kitten, knowing she was in good and capable hands.”
“Kitten seemed very happy and relaxed in all the pictures that Isabel sent me which made me feel good that Kitten was in good hands! Isabel was also super flexible to come and hang with Kitten even when my house became a last minute construction zone due to a flood. I appreciated that very much!”
About: I have two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone caring, patient, and trustworthy looking after them. I would treat your cats like my own by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have had dogs in my house for my whole life, and worked doggy daycare for Dog-Gone Rite. I feel I have plenty of experience and I love to be around animals. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I am available all weekdays as my work is not intensive. I like to sit with pets and watch them to ensure their safety as well as keeping them on a leash at all times outside.
About: I’ve had hands-on experience caring for cats, including my friend’s two cats, where I was responsible for giving them medication, keeping their litter boxes clean, and making sure they got plenty of playtime and attention. I take pride in making sure every cat I care for feels happy, safe, and well-loved, from keeping their space tidy to giving them the extra affection they deserve.
About: I've had pets since I was a teenager. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 ferrets and 3 birds (2 cockatoos one quaker parrots). I've recently retired as a Project Manager from the Department of Veterans Affairs after 34 years. I just became retired and so I have plenty of time to hang out, play and entertain your pets. Almost all dogs and cats love me. As a project manager with the VA for the last 25 years I've been in a position of high public trust requiring that I have a background check every 5 years.
About: I have been passionate about animal care since a young age, with extensive hands-on experience managing the needs of multiple pets simultaneously. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the unique care each animal requires. My 3years of experience working at the Humane Society further honed my skills in providing specialized care for pets with specific health needs and routines. Having successfully balanced the care of my own three pets, and pet sitting for friends and family numerous times, I am highly attuned to the demands of pet care, even in the busiest of schedules. I always prioritize the well-being of the animals I care for, ensuring they receive consistent attention, exercise, and love. I take pride in preparing home-cooked meals for pets and have a keen understanding of how to cater to their dietary needs. Additionally, I am familiar with various walking trails and off ample space for pets to explore and play in a safe, enriching environment. Above all, my commitment to providing individualized care ensures that your pet will feel at ease and loved while in my care. As I currently do not have any pets of my own, my schedule is highly flexible and can accommodate multiple pet-sitting visits throughout the day. Given proper notice, I can ensure that your pet receives the attention and care they need, with ample time to visit and attend to their needs. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they receive the utmost love, attention, and respect. I understand that some pets may take time to warm up to a new person, and I am committed to being patient and respectful throughout the process. I recognize that new environments or strangers can make pets feel nervous, so I take extra care to build trust, providing a calm and safe space for them to feel comfortable. I’ve developed a strong ability to read animals and understand their needs, knowing when they need a little extra space or when they’re ready to relax and enjoy some affection. Whether it’s through gentle interaction, engaging in activities they enjoy, or providing them with a sense of routine, I ensure that their emotional and physical needs are met with attention and care. I am always mindful of their comfort, and I take the time to understand their unique personality and preferences. My approach combines patience, respect, and a deep commitment to providing the best possible care, whether at my home or in your pet’s familiar surroundings.

“Jose and Maria took awesome care of our Cockapoo. I received photos and videos of our pet throughout the day. They were active with Marley including walks and time outside. I would definitely look to Jose and Maria to care for Marley again.”
“Alexis is great- welcoming, and friendly. Upon meeting her you can immediately tell she enjoys living on her small farm and taking care of animals. We felt very comfortable with our dog hanging out with her. Good communicator. Highly recommend.”
About: Hi! We’re an animal-loving family with room to roam and a whole lot of heart. We share our home with three wonderful dogs (a Pointer, a German Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix, and an Australian Shepherd) all 7 years and older, plus our cat, Potato. We’re very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and species under one roof. Our dogs are mature, well-socialized, and help create a calm, balanced pack environment. We live on 2 acres with a securely fenced quarter-acre for safe, supervised outdoor play. There’s plenty of space for sniffing, structured exercise, and relaxing in the fresh air. My wife and I are almost always home, so your pet will receive consistent supervision, attention, and affection. We also have a sweet baby, Cooper, who is growing up learning to gently and respectfully love animals. Our home is calm, structured, and family-oriented. In addition to boarding, we also offer drop-in visits for pets who are happiest staying in their own home. Whether your pet needs potty breaks, feeding, walks, medication, or just some companionship and playtime, we’re happy to help. I’m currently a stay at home parent so my schedule is wide open for both days and nights to take on boarding or do visits to other homes. My home has a large fenced area where our three dogs can roam and exercise. I am very reliable and respectful when it comes to entering others’ homes while taking care of their pets.
“So happy to find Miranda! Kios 🐶 loves her and her big backyard and all the fun playmates to have fun with. I appreciate Miranda’s expertise and conscious decisions to ensure the welfare of each dog’s experience. It feels good to know Kios is in good hands while I’m off being busy.”
“Kaitlyn is a wonderful dog sitter. She sent pictures that showed Abby in various activities throughout the day. It was obvious that Abby enjoyed her time with Kaitlyn, her dog and daughter. She was extremely flexible on the drop-off and pick-up times. This was our first time to use her and she will be our first choice in future bookings. Thank you, Kaitlyn!!”
About: I have grown up with animals of all shapes and sizes. And have professionally pet sat under a licensed & insured LLC I owned for several years before dissolving it to focus on my career in nursing. I have 2 mini Aussie pups myself, Biscuit & Gravy! Who’d love to have friends come visit to play :) I work as a labor & delivery nurse 3-days a week! And enjoy having things to breakup my schedule; like spending time with furry friends :) I live in a spacious 2/2 apartment & my complex has a large dog park. I also promise to treat your home like my own if I am staying with your furry friend(s)
“We were in a position where we had to find another doggie day care and boarding option. Fortunately we found Brody. He is obviously good with dogs, calm, communicative, and accommodating. Most importantly, our dog is happy to be there. We will definitely be using Brody from now on!”
About: I have had dogs, cats, birds, and much more animals my entire life. I love taking care of animals and have done it for friends and family for years. I’m very active and love walks and runs! I have 3 animals of my own including 2 dogs and a cat. I have taken care of baby, Senior, adult, healthy, and sick animals. I’m an animal lover and love meeting new people and animals. I have a lot of knowledge with animals for the simple fact that I have been around 100’s my entire life, from saving strays to having pets. I live in Weaverville and would love to help out with taking care of your pet or pets! I work all day but could be flexible. Im a personal trainer, my hours are 4am-2/3pm. I am available with at least a week notice. I can help on M-F and weekends with drop ins and walks. I have a yard as well as 2 friendly playful dogs. I have crates as well as separated floors that are gated off in my home that always help.
“Thank uuu Jen!! She was just the best!!

Jen sent photos and messaged We hope to return and will contact Jen!! We highly recommend her!! 🍃🏆🩷🐾😀”
“Teresa was amazing with our GiGi! We were in from out of town and wanted to spend the day at the Biltmore. Teresa watched GiGi for the day. She was very flexible with our timing needs. She kept us updated with pictures of our dog during the day. We would definitely have Teresa watch our gig again!”
“Paul and his fiancé were amazing with our boy, Ezra. As my service dog, he is always with me. There were 2 days of our 16-day vacay that we needed a reliable pet sitter for adventures we couldn’t bring Ezra on: zip-lining in Barnardsville and driving the Blue Ridge Parkway in a 2-seater Polaris Slingshot. Even after a considerately planned meet-and-greet the afternoon before his 1st stay with Paul, Ezra was a little nervous after we dropped him off. Thoughtfully, I received updates and videos to keep me posted. Paul and his fiancé worked with him to build trust and also Ezra’s confidence. By day 2, Ezra did not want his stay to end at pick-up time! When he finally did get in the car, he was happily exhausted and slept the entire drive home. I would definitely reach out to Paul as a pet sitter should the need arise the next time we visit beautiful North Carolina! Thank you both for taking such good care of our Ezra. We truly appreciate all you did to help him adjust and feel comfortable, confident and happy!!! :)”

Whether your pet is energetic and playful or older and needs a slower pace, I’ll treat them with the same care and compassion I would want for my own pets. Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I currently work only about 10 hours a week, giving me plenty of flexibility to dedicate time to your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and other care needs, and I can work with your pet’s routine and schedule. Having a flexible schedule also means I can give your pets the time, attention, and companionship they deserve rather than rushing through a visit. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routines as much as possible. I follow their feeding, medication, walking, and care instructions closely while giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I also treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own, keeping things clean and secure. Most importantly, I communicate with owners throughout the stay and provide updates so they can feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.
“Did an amazing job with my furry kids on a last minute notice. Good communicator and got cute pictures. All my animals were happy and comfortable with her. Definitely will be using her again if I need help!”

About: I have been an animal lover for life and a dog owner for two years. Before that I have been a dog sitter several times in the UK, where I am from. I have regularly cat-sit for a family, which included taking the little feline out on walks in her harness! I love doing training with my own dog, (who is steadily becoming more well behaved!) and would be happy to incorporate training into my visits with yours. I am a very active person and can play ball, run, and walk with dogs. I know the importance of mental stimulation. I am currently available most days, with the exception of Wednesdays. I am an artist and market vendor, and I am able to adjust my schedule much of the time to fit in with your needs. I am happy to walk dogs and do check-ins at your home. I am a careful and cautious person and will follow instructions given as closely as I can.
About: I have had and loved animals my entire life. As a child I helped with our family dachshunds and border collies as well as several indoor and outdoor cats, and as adult I have had the joy of having two different Pit-Lab mixes as a companions, as well as a Australian Cattle Dog Super Mutt. I love animals of all types and would help you with your fur babies for those adventures in your life that are less pet-friendly. I am an active person and will take your doggos for a 1-5 mile walk each day, depending on their preference. I'm also happy to incorporate any training you're currently doing into our day and will of course send any picture updates you'd like during their stay with me. I am currently working from home and am able to provide frequent potty breaks, daily walks, and can accommodate any necessary feeding schedule or routine! I live in Colorado Springs but I work remotely so I often sit for folks and their pups all over the state, so that I can help maintain their normal schedule and minimize the stress of missing their humans. My goal is always to support what works best for your life and the unique needs and routines of your animals and home!
About: I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. All have been taken care of from 2 months and onwards! I find joy in connecting with animals and serving them - as they have served my life in beautiful ways by just expressing their unconditional love and gratitude with their movements and actions rather than words. It is an gift to be loved by these beautiful creatures daily. I am currently working independently and using this time to create and spend time with nature’s gifts. My schedule is very flexible - and I am willing to work with you! I make sure that they are walked, legs stretched, bowels taken care of, fed, played with and loved. Following the rules as listed by the parent. Mindful of the surrounding environment and respectful of what is needed of me.

I like to sit with pets and watch them to ensure their safety as well as keeping them on a leash at all times outside.
About: I have two cats and a dog who mean the world to me, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I would treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in nursing school full time, which has strengthened my responsibility, patience, and compassion when caring for others. While my weekdays are busy with classes and studying, I’m available for evening and weekend pet care and would love to spend that time giving your pets the attention, comfort, and love they deserve. In my home or my client’s home, I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection based on their personality and energy level. I’m mindful of any specific instructions from the owner, including medications, special diets, or behavioral needs. I also keep their space clean, make sure they have a calm and stress-free environment, and give lots of reassurance so they feel at ease while their owner is away.

About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had a dachshund and a rottweiler (quite the duo!), and later on I had a bull terrier of my own that I absolutely adored. I also lived with a golden retriever, so I’ve had the joy of caring for all kinds of personalities and energy levels. For the past 10 years, I’ve been the go-to dog sitter and walker for friends and family. They trust me because they know their pups will get more than just the basics, they’ll get love, attention, and plenty of playtime. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and cared for like they’re my own. Right now I have full-time availability, which means your pet will get plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Since I’m not balancing another job, I can easily work around your pet’s routine, whether that’s regular walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. In my home, pets have plenty of space to feel comfortable — I live alone in a 3-bedroom house, so there’s lots of room for them to play, explore, or just relax. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live in a very walkable neighborhood, so I make sure they get plenty of walks and outdoor time. I’m also happy to care for pets in their own home if that’s where they feel most comfortable. Whether at my place or yours, I always make sure they get the attention, exercise, and love they need.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was five years old. I still distinctly remember the breeder of the first dog I ever owned - a chocolate lab named Ginger - looking me in the eye after seeing I was apprehensive about the dogs and telling me, "Son, some day this dog will be the best friend you ever had." Ginger and I went everywhere together. I've had dogs and cats virtually my whole life, and the animals love me. While I am employed full time, I work in a hybrid setting that includes roughly 3 remote days per week, so I can be pet sitting on site and developing as close a band as I can to alleviate the babies' separation anxiety. I aim to please - if you'd prefer for your fur baby to be crated at night, then I will make sure s/he does that. My only job, other than to make the babies' experience as smooth as possible, is to follow the directions laid out by the owners.
About: With pet sitting experience dating back to my childhood, I’ve built lasting trust with families who confidently rely on me for consistent, compassionate pet care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize consistent, attentive care for pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely by feeding, walking, playing, administering care as instructed, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable.
About: I am a teacher in Asheville looking to hang out with some lovely animals in my free time. Growing up I have always had animals but primarily dogs so I have a strong background in dog behaviors and needs. My fiancé, Ellen, is also available to support during the week days that wouldn’t be optimal for me to leave during my teaching days. This gives a lot more availability! She has always grown up with cats and dogs and would love to help support to give them the best care. Often we both come for meet and greets/visits to ensure we give the best care 😊 I look forward to care for your animal in anyway I can. Please let me know of any questions as I hope to be flexible with any needs. During the week I am gone roughly 8am-4pm but will be home during the weekend times. During the summer months I am available throughout the day times. My fiancé is a nurse and works 3 days out of the week. The schedule is flexible but sporadic. I love to get out for long walks and get as much movement as possible. If that’s for your animal I’d love to get them out! If not I am cautious about the animals typical areas and what works best for them.

I’m certified in cat and dog first aid, and I specialize in structured, high-quality care for all kinds of pets—including exotics.

I offer a safe and enriching environment with a large fenced-in backyard featuring a garden, sensory space, and sandbox. My dogs are friendly, high-energy, and well-socialized. We go on daily walks, hikes, or trail runs depending on each dog’s needs. I’m Cat and Dog First Aid Certified and experienced with exotic pets as well. I run an LLC and carry insurance so you can feel confident your pet is in responsible hands.
About: I have been pet-sitting for over 5 years now, and for over 10 different families. I have experience sitting for short and long periods of time, as well as dog walking, administering medication, and sitting for puppies. I also have experience sitting for chickens! I have taken dog harnessing classes and body language while volunteering with a local shelter, and I have studied a bit through online masterclasses on dog training. I have excellent communication skills, enjoy keeping homes tidy and clean, and am well-attuned to the needs of both the pets and the owners! My favorite part of pet sitting is cuddling and taking your dog for a walk! At the moment I am in full-time school but am available for petsitting on weekends only. I usually am working on homework and can be present with your pets most of the day on weekends. Generally, I dogsit which includes taking the dog for a walk, feeding them, playing with them, and keeping them company. I am open and willing to care for dogs that are high energy or may need some extra support.
About: Hi! I’m Jessie, and I have always been the person who gets way too excited when there’s a dog in the room. 🐾 I absolutely love animals and genuinely believe they deserve to be treated with the same patience, kindness, and care that we want for ourselves. I have a big soft spot for animals with big personalities, nervous pups who need a little extra time to warm up, and the ones who immediately decide we are best friends. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else. They’re family, and I don’t take the trust that comes with caring for them lightly. When your pet is with me, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved—not like they’re just being “watched.” I’m happy to follow their normal routine, whether that means long walks, playing until they’re exhausted, lots of cuddles, or letting them have some quiet time in their favorite spot. I’ll also happily send you pictures and updates because I know I’d want the same thing while I was away from my own dog! More than anything, I want your pet to have a good experience while you’re gone and for you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! ❤️🐶 I work full time from 8-5 M-F, and sometimes later. However, I am free most evenings after 6 as well as weekends. I have some holidays available as well so please reach out if you want to have me look after your pets! I have one dog and one cat. I take my dog on 2 mile walks a day and she is very friendly! My cat is my dog's best friend. If I end up taking care of pets overnight, I can arrange care for my own! I try to go to the dog park at least twice a day!
About: Hello! I am an experienced vet tech at a local animal hospital and have been working there for 3 years. I feel comfortable giving medication and injections. I have 2 pets of own, lots of experience pet sitting and have great references. I can stay at your home overnight if needed, or I can do frequent visits throughout the day to feed, walk, play and love your pet. Feel free to contact me. Thank you.

“Katie & Jeremy were great at communicating and sending pictures of our dogs stay with them. Creature seemed to have a great time and fit in well with them. Def would use them again!”
“Nancy's small farm setting is perfect for dogs who enjoy being outside, snuffling around the paddock, or making friends through the fence with ducks, chickens, a llama, and a donkey! Her dog-centric space is equally suitable for your four-legged couch-potatoes, who will enjoy air-conditioning and comfy beds while they hang out with Nancy while she works. It's a win-win for everyone! A friendly welcome and regular updates throughout their stay put any pet owner at ease. My dogs can't wait for me to go on vacation again :D”
“Pisco had a wonderful time with Alexis. Long walks, regular attention, and a nice place to relax. We appreciated her regular stream of photos. Highly recommend Alexis. We'll use her again.”
“Bella seemed to really enjoy her stay with Kali! My fiancé and I really appreciated Kali’s responsiveness and willingness to work with our schedules. She even sent us a picture showing Bella settled in bed which we greatly adored. Thanks Kali!”
“Sarah watched our dog for two nights while we stayed at the Grove Park Inn. This was a great option since the hotel pet fee was $350! Thank you, Sarah, for caring for our pup!”
“Both of our dogs had a great stay. Our old dog always travels with us - but she could not go on this trip. She ended up doing great! We really appreciated the messages and pictures during our trip!”
“Kathleen was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Remy! From the moment we connected, she was attentive, patient, caring, and kind. She kept in touch with us daily, sending sweet updates and adorable pictures that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Remy was happy, healthy, and in loving hands. Kathleen went above and beyond by meeting me at a convenient halfway point between our homes, making the entire process so easy and stress-free. She was a delight to work with—professional, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. We will absolutely be using her again, without question. Highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Brody was an excellent choice for Pepper! We needed to keep her calm and limit her movement due to medical restrictions and we felt she was extremely safe in Brody’s care. He went above and beyond to ensure she was safe and comfortable and I would 100% bring any of my pets back to him in the future!!”
“Joseph and his family were amazing with our sweet Lucy! Communication was great and I got pictures and updates everyday. You can tell Joseph knows what he’s doing and genuinely cares about animals. Lucy was spoiled and loved on the entire time and we will definitely be taking her back. Highly recommend!”
“My baby was in very good hands with Jessica and John (Jack). Thanks for taking such good care of Zeus on his first away from home stay. I really enjoyed the pictures and videos and know you spoiled him a lot. He went around our house this morning sniffing everything, glad he was home. But I know he will be in very good hands if we ever have to leave him home again. Thanks again J and J. We appreciate you!”
“This is the second time Lilly has stayed with Caroline. She did a great job with communicating & sending pictures so we knew Lilly was comfortable & doing well. Would definitely have her sit Lilly again!”
“Emily and her family took great care of D-Rex and were very flexible. They sent us a lot of pictures and kept us updated. So glad we found them in such short notice and they were able to accommodate us.”
“Kristin and Seth did an amazing job watching our dog! They stayed in contact with us and sent pictures while we were gone. Our dog seemed to have a great time at their home. We would definitely recommend!”
“We had a last minute boarding request and Molly was there to our rescue. Our Lab puppies loved running and playing in her huge fenced yard. Molly's two dogs accepted them into their pack in seconds and the fun zoomies began. We received several great pictures throughout their stay and could tell our pups were in good hands.”
“Miranda did an incredible job taking care of my pup, Sophie! Sophie has some quirks, but Miranda handled them with ease. She gave Sophie a ton of attention and has a great backyard for dogs. I will definitely be booking with Miranda again and recommending her to all of my friends!”
“Kyle was a great pet sitter! She is super friendly, very responsive in communication, and provides steady updates on how things are going. Her dog, Louie, is a total sweetie and Raz obviously liked hanging out with him. Raz was happy and healthy when I picked him up, which is the whole point! I would definitely recommend Kyle and look forward to contacting her again.”
