It’s a great feeling to know you can go away and your pup will be in good hands at “Camp Sharon’s”! Thank you Sharon, we appreciate you.”

“I cannot begin to say enough about the care which Lacie provided for our Emma. She is a 16 year-old Havanese and has issues such as being blind and deaf. She also has some severe arthritis. Lacie took excellent care of her needs, took her outside multitudes daily to enjoy the sun and provided us with daily photos of how well she got along.Lacie provided excellent care and Emma and seem to be so happy. I know it was a lot of extra work because of her special needs, but Lacey was fantastic. I highly recommend Lacie!!!”

I plan to use her again and I would recommend her services to anybody who is looking for some great pet-sitting. Thank you Leslie!”

“Our 8 month old puppy stayed with Tracy for 5 nights when we went out of town. This was her first time staying with someone else so I was a bit nervous but there was no need to be.

“Wow! We lucked out choosing Emily as a sitter! She was fantastic. We needed a sitter at the last minute and Emily responded right away. We enjoyed meeting her and her sweet family. Our pup walked right in the door without a look back, like she was home. It was a blessing to be able to leave feeling like our pup was going to be fine. Emily sent messages and pics to reassure us that our old girl was settling in that evening and doing well the next morning. If we come back to this area again I would definitely ask for Emily. I’d highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much!”


About: I’ve always loved caring for dogs, often helping neighbors and friends with their dogs. And I look after my grandpup Whiskey, a husky, whenever my son travels. Your pet will enjoy a calm, steady routine while staying with me. I work full‑time from home, so they’ll have company throughout the day and plenty of attention. We’ll follow their usual schedule — walks, meals, potty breaks, and any comfort habits they rely on. Evenings are relaxed and cozy with playtime and snuggles. You’ll receive updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. For cats: They settle in easily here and enjoy a quiet, cozy space with lots of gentle attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a steady routine throughout the day so pets know what to expect and feel secure while they’re with me. I live in a quiet, comfortable home that’s very pet‑friendly and easy for animals to settle into. Since I work from home, your pet will have company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long stretches. Supervised outdoor time: I don’t have a fenced yard, so all outdoor time is on‑leash and supervised. I’m mindful of other dogs we may meet on walks and keep interactions calm and controlled. Safe indoor environment: Inside, pets can relax, nap, and settle in a pet‑friendly space where I’m always nearby. At times, my grandkitty Kitana may be here, and she’s calm, gentle, and used to sharing space with visiting pets. Communication: You’ll receive updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. If anything seems off — changes in appetite, behavior, or comfort — I’ll let you know right away.
“Donna was outstanding! We were always kept up to date with texts and pictures. This was Sophie's first time away from us and everything went perfectly. We will definitely use Donna again in the future!”

“If I could give 10 Stars, I would!!! Megan is the best…period. She communicates very well, my dog adores her, she’s diligent about bringing him outside for exercise, and she’s been unbelievably flexible! I will use her again and again and again!!”

About: I've had 3 of my own cats, including a neighors cat we adopted when the owners left him behind. Cats have been a part of our family for a long time. I will deliver caring and patient care of your feline baby.
About: I have been around all types of animals and pets my whole life. I don't mind taking care of any type of pet you may have from babys to seniors, cats of all breeds and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m also good with taking care of other domestic pets, exotic pets and farm animals. I only work part time so I have a lot of extra time to care for animals and enjoy being outdoors walking, biking and hiking. I can also just enjoy sitting on the porch with a cat in my lap and a dog at my feet. I’m not doing in home or boarding at this time and may offer to stay at your house with your pet in the future

“I ended up needing a short-notice, “panic” cat check-in option from Rover before a 10-day trip. Lillie responded and communicated promptly. Her response saved my trip, She did a pre-trip visit to check out my 5 fuzzies, then dealt well with them for several food and water refill and social interaction visits. When I need cat sitting services again, I will be going back to Lillie.”

About: I’ve owned cats my whole life and have done everything from bottle feeding kittens, helping administer vaccines, as well as scooping litter every single day. For many years me and my family fostered cats through Purr Partners and we took care of kittens as well as many spicy kitties. Additionally, throughout highschool I volunteered at SafeHaven for cats and visited their facility every weekend to help clean up cages, scoop litter, as well as play with any cats that needed socializing. Currently we own 10, some of which we adopted while fostering and a few of which we rescued ourselves. Overall, my cats bring me joy and I’d love to take care of other cats as well!
About: I grew up alongside many beloved labradors and English setters, as well as taken care of various other breeds for family and friends. I have always had a soft spot for furry friends, and they often have a soft spot for me too! I’m on break from college and looking for any opportunity to work with your pets! Let me know what you need and I will deliver! I will take the time to get to know your pet, and allow them to feel comfortable with me. I offer walking and drop in sitting services!
“Loved having Cassie spend time with our dogs while we were away. I loved the pictures and report card of their time together. Cassie communicated with us so well! I had no worries about my fur babies because of her care.”


“Dixie is a caring and professional pet/house sitter. I am 100% comfortable having her stay with my pets, even for longer periods of time. Most recently she stayed at my house for 11 days and everything was great when I returned. She sends daily photos and keeps you posted without being prompted. I highly recommend Dixie!”

About: Hey there!! I've been around pets my whole life and absolutely LOVE them. We had a dog (dachshund) growing up as well as other animals like Rabbits and Guinea Pigs! I've had cats and dogs throughout my life as well. My bestie dog was named Sadie (corgi/husky mix) who was 17 when I had to let her go to the rainbow bridge March 2021...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do 💔 I had her since she was about 1 yr old. She had a pacemaker put in about 2 yrs prior to passing and had a great life but I miss her like crazy. I've been Petsitting a long time but since Sadie passed, it's really helped heal my heart and has truly been a blessing. Most of my clients are from word of mouth over the years but I have this to help others get in touch with me if they need some help! I live in Lake Toxaway but I have jobs anywhere from Highlands, Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Toxaway to Brevard. I mostly stay at my client's homes but I do bring some dogs to my house if it ends up being a better option. I've done puppy care and senior care as well so that doesn't phase me. I also can do medication or treatments needed. If I'm booked up for in home pet care then I can do drop ins 2x a day for cats 🐱 I can possibly offer that for dogs too but they usually need it 3x a day. So that would all depend on my availability. I work part time caretaking properties/cleaning, and childcare so I'm mostly home! When I do need to leave I'm not gone more then 3-6 hrs, depending on the job. I can travel further if I can move jobs around in my area. I'm very flexible and try to make things work if I can! I currently don’t have a fenced in yard but I will walk around my neighborhood and have a decent sized backyard. I treat your babies like they're my own so they get lots of lovin. Sometimes we go to the State Park too! If they like car rides I'll take them to check my mail or little errands.

“She is the best I’ve ever seen and I recommend her to anyone. Now I know where to take Gil when we go to casino. I love visiting this town-Bryson City. It is great. If u want to get anyone to sit or keep ur dog Michelle and Robbie are the best. I feel safe my dog is happy and having a blast.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats for over 10 years and genuinely love being around animals. Growing up with pets has given me experience with feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and recognizing their individual needs and personalities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I will treat them with the same care, patience, and attention that I give my own. Whether your pet needs an energetic playmate or a calm companion, I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and reliable experience. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I make it a priority to communicate clearly with pet owners and ensure their pets receive consistent care, attention, and affection while they’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and routines to help pets feel secure and maintain consistency. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to build trust with them while providing plenty of attention, patience, and care. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.
“My pups had a great day with Megan. They are nappy after having a yard to run and play. Megan is great about staying in contact with pictures and responsive to my texts. I am already booking future dates of fun.”


“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: Hey, I’m Zachary! I’m the guy who ends up hanging out with the dog at someone else’s house. I know leaving your dog with someone takes trust, and I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re getting plenty of attention and being well cared for. Tell me their routine, their favorite things, and any little habits I should know about—I’m happy to keep things how they’re used to. Whether they love long walks, playing fetch, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel at home. And I’ll send pictures along the way, because I know you’re going to miss them. When I take a booking, I make sure I have time for the care and attention your dog needs. We’ll go over their usual schedule beforehand so meals, walks, and potty breaks stay as close to their normal routine as possible. I want you to feel comfortable leaving your dog with me, so I’ll ask about their habits, any special needs, and what helps them settle in. I’ll follow your instructions, respect your home, and send photos and updates so you’re never left wondering how they’re doing.
“Lacie was absolutely wonderful to our Cockapoo, Biscuit. We did day care in her home and she has a house perfectly suited to having animals and a huge fenced yard. She clearly loves animals and I’m so glad I found her. Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

About: I bring a lifetime of hands, on experience and a naturally calm presence. I’ve cared for dogs and cats at every stage of life, from puppies and kittens to seniors, starting with volunteering at a veterinary hospital at age 12. I’m especially good at reading animals and helping them feel at ease in a new environment. I work from home, and pet care is part of my everyday routine. Being around animals, caring for them, and paying attention to their needs is second nature to me. The best part of my day is dog walks and cuddles. I focus on helping pets feel comfortable and secure. I stick closely to what they’re familiar with and take my cues from the animal. 💛

“Christie did a great job with my dogs Honey and Kip. She was punctual and had a good way with Honey who is skittish around strangers. I felt at ease with her care of my dogs and will definitely request her help again.”

About: I have had dogs of many breeds and personalities all my life. I will care for your dog as my own and will enjoy getting to know them. Your pup will get lots of cuddles and positive interaction. I would love to hike or walk your pup, play fetch or tug. I currently work remote so I will have flexibility and time to spend and care for your pet while you are away and keep you updated with photos and notes about the visit. Also available for trips to the vet. Your dog's care and safety are my primary concern and I will let you know if there are any questions or concerns. Making sure your dog is happy and relaxed when you return.
“Lillie has been great working with our new dog Archie. She is very patient and gives great updates, which is very helpful when trying to figure out what behaviors we need to work on with him.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets my whole life and have had a wide variety of pets. I am comfortable taking care of senior pets puppies and ones that require special needs. I have a flexible lifestyle and flexible scheduling and can provide the needed time to care for your pet and will provide updates on a consistent basis. I have a large yard and will keep pets on leash if required but I am located in a rural area a good distance from any major road.
“Our 12 year old pup is typically quite cautious with new sitters and sometimes refuses to go outside with them. He took to Pamela right away and showed her a lot of love from the beginning. She is a true dog whisperer! Pamela is extremely trustworthy, prompt and energetic. We never worried when she was with our pup, and best of all, when we got home he was always happy and tired ! Pamela was an absolute joy to work with and we strongly recommend her. We will definitely book her again on our return to the Highlands !!I”


“Louise is obviously a dog person. I appreciated having a meet and greet before hand. My pup felt immediately comfortable with her and so did I. Louise showed up when she said she would, took time for walks and play and my pup and home were in great shape when i got home. I will definitely use her again when in area.”

“Violet was great! She handled my two Border Collies beautifully, stayed in communication, and I really loved her quiet laid back personality. She is practical and confident - exactly what my high energy dogs need. I know they enjoyed their walks with her, and I'd happily recommend Violet to other dog owners.”
About: I’ve owned both cats and dogs my whole life, and more recently I’ve owned chickens as well. Starting with cats, I’ve fed and cleaned up after the ones we’ve owned, as well as taken care of the cats and kittens we fostered over the years. I’ve bottle fed them, helped give vaccines, and everything else in between when it comes to raising and taking care of them. I have also helped pet sit many of our neighbors as well as friends cats over the years. We have also owned several dogs, and I have tons of experience with walking and feeding them. We currently own 3; 2 small dogs and 1 big dog, so I have learned how to take care of many sizes of dog. Like with cats, I’ve also walked and fed my neighbors dogs many times when they’ve gone out of town. Lastly, we’ve raised more chickens than I can count in the past 7ish years, and I’ve taken care of chicks we got from breeders, as well as chicks born from our own hens and roosters. All of our chickens free range and are egg layers, so I treat them like any other pet and not like livestock. I have experience feeding them, fending off hawks and other predators, putting them to bed every night, as well as animal-proofing the coops themselves. For almost my whole life, I’ve helped feed our cats and scooped their litter just about every day. I also walk and feed each of our dogs throughout the day. Finally, I feed and put up our chickens many times throughout each week. I follow any instructions my clients may have and can cater to their pets needs. I love on and treat others pets the same way I would with my own, and have done so for neighbors, family, friends, as well as many others.
About: I grew up alongside many beloved labradors and English setters, as well as taken care of various other breeds for family and friends. I have always had a soft spot for furry friends, and they often have a soft spot for me too! I’m on break from college and looking for any opportunity to work with your pets! Let me know what you need and I will deliver! I will take the time to get to know your pet, and allow them to feel comfortable with me. I offer walking and drop in sitting services!

About: *Please read profile to see if we will be a good fit* My name is Sara! I'm a dog enthusiast with 20 years experience training, exercising, and caring for dogs. I graduated from Penn Foster Career School's Dog Training Program. I love to help people fulfill their dogs needs! I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work with dogs full time so I'm able to fulfill their daily needs with ease. We walk every day but also go on adventures to the park and lake. I'm Pet CPR and First Aid Trained. I have a completely fenced yard, but dogs are supervised at all times. I have experience with fearful dog safety. Dogs are crated or tethered while driving. Someone is almost always home with the dogs. I also have a Furbo video camera to monitor dogs if I do need to leave for a short time. ***Due to having 2-3 dogs staying with me at times, I only offer meet & greets, pick up, and drop off from my clients homes or curbside drop off anf pick up at my house in my designated "dog lovers only" parking spot. I find this keeps the excitement and stress level down for all dogs staying. If you want to see the accommodations, I can do a video tour with you. I also post videos and pics to my social media so you can see what your dog is up to during there stay.***
About: My whole life has revolved around my passion and love for animals. From volunteering at my local animal shelter, working at luxury pet resorts to working on a Farm I have had experience with animals of all sizes. In the future I hope to become a certified dog trainer and I am already on my way to it. I am dog and cat CPR certificated. I have years of experience caring for all sizes and age groups of pets. I personally have two dogs that get to go to the park and do training daily. I personally feel like enrichment for animals is one of the most important part of pet care in a day. I strive myself to be able to give all of the animals I take care of mental and physical enrichment daily. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time outside of work to care for my own pets, as well as others pets to my best ability. My main priority for pet care is making sure the pet is safe, happy and healthy. I also want to make sure that pet parents are comfortable with the approaches I use and the incentives given to the animals. I want the pet care I provide to be a happy and mutually beneficial experience for both the animals and the parents.
About: I had multiple dogs all of my life and have taken care of horses and barn cats. Love all animals and want to make sure that they are doing amazing while you are away. I have pet sitted on and off over the years for friends and even flew to Las Vegas to petsit for an extended weekend. I’m currently working full time but can do late night drop ins, walks and am available any time on the weekends. Typically on the weekends I am free/flexible for any time, except the few times I’m out of town. Before letting pets out in fenced areas I double check gates are closed and latched before letting out. For any pets that are walked I ensure that they are leashed before heading out the door and do not take the leash off until inside with the door closed. I have an escape artist of myself at home so I know what to look for. I can easily place your pet in a crate before leaving if that is necessary.

About: Since a little girl, there has always been dogs inside or outside of the house. As of right now, I have six dogs all different sizes, ages, and personalities. Therefore, I am very comfortable handling anything from energetic puppies to senior pups who need a gentler space. I understand how to manage multiple dogs at once and read their body language to make sure each one gets the care they need. Because of that, I am patient, adaptable, and used to real life situations. I treat every animal like they are my own regardless of where I am (why I have 6 lol), and make sure they feel safe and loved. I am currently a freshman in college who is fully online. Therefore, I have plenty of time on my hands to play with your pups and get what they need! During the summer time, I will be doing this full time as I will be on break. I have a large yard with many pups yours can play with. If needed, I can easily crate your dog if that is what you prefer, however, all dogs are welcome on the furniture here. I also have a quieter space for the older, wanting to sleep dogs🙂
About: I have owned dogs my entire life with many cats in between. I have had the pleasure of sitting dogs and cats all over the country, including house sits in California, Oregon, Washington, and now North Carolina. I have experience with young puppies, as well as elderly dogs with a plethora of health problems; I also have experience with big dogs like German shepherds, Australian shepherds, and Rottweilers, to teacup Pomeranians, spitz, and many more. I have been told I’m very high energy and fun, and the animals I have looked after always seem to pick up on that great energy and can’t wait to hang out. :) I sell vintage clothing, so being self employed allows me to better accommodate to all the needs of the animals. In our own home, our dog Endo is the King. He gets to enjoy long daily walks amidst the beauty of DuPont forest, swims in the lake behind our house, and nightly fresh cooked meals. My services on house sits include obviously feeding and general care of the animals, as well as promptly following specific dietary regimens and health requirements of every animal. I have cared for very old dogs that needed assistance in bowel movements as well as simple motivation for stubborn dogs that don’t like to walk. I have also looked after countless plants and hot tubs, ensuring proper watering and chlorination.
“Christina is the best! She is a regular dog walker for me as well as watches my dog in her home! She gives regular updates and reassures me my dog us safe and happy! I highly recommend her for all services!!! I love all the pics I receive!!”

“We are so grateful for Diane and her thoughtful care for our young, energetic dog. She was great with communication and sent lots of updates throughout the week. Hope she can watch our dog again in the future and we highly recommend her services!”


“Leslie was fantastic; so you know, I gave her 5 stars. She sent regular updates via text about my dogs. She incorporated them into her life and did a great job. Clearly they were happy to see me when I got home, but just as evidently they had enjoyed their time with Leslie. I plan to use her again and I would recommend her services to anybody who is looking for some great pet-sitting. Thank you Leslie!”

“Great first experience using this service. Hannah was awesome. Loved the pictures and updates during stay. Simba definitely looked happy and well taken care of. Already planning my next booking.”

“Wow! We lucked out choosing Emily as a sitter! She was fantastic. We needed a sitter at the last minute and Emily responded right away. We enjoyed meeting her and her sweet family. Our pup walked right in the door without a look back, like she was home. It was a blessing to be able to leave feeling like our pup was going to be fine. Emily sent messages and pics to reassure us that our old girl was settling in that evening and doing well the next morning. If we come back to this area again I would definitely ask for Emily. I’d highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much!”

“I would definitely leave my pup with Ashley again, in fact, I'm so glad I have someone I can count on to take care of my dog when needed. Asha was a bit reluctant to be in a new space with new people (as she always is), but Ashley went above and beyond to help Asha feel safe and comfortable. Thank you, Ashley!”

About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.
“Mini had a great time staying with Mary! She has the best setup for dog-sitting! I highly recommend Mary and would definitely use her again if we are ever back in the area! Thank you, Mary!! We appreciate you!”

“Great sitters, quick responses! We were unable to have their standard meet & greet because I was coming from out of town, but I immediately felt comfortable leaving my pups with them once I arrived. If I’m ever back in their area, I’ll use them again!”


“We had to find someone to watch over our 8 month old Golden Retriever while we went home for a few days. We used Rover and found Elizabeth. She is truly great with dogs and made our girl feel at home. Will definitely use her again.”
