Courtney is amazing with Jojo. He had such a good time and lots of cuddles and play time with her pups and her. She sent me pics daily of him playing and napping and had no problem with his feeding instructions.

Was great with my beagle heeler mix. Still a puppy learning all the things but he got along with her dogs and the neighbor pets. Received daily updates about how he was doing while I was away. Will be keeping her in mind for the future.

Larissa is wonderful! I have a bernese mountain dog and she usually has a lot of trouble adjusting to new environments, but Larissa made sure that she felt comfortable, safe and right at home! Zoe loved her and her family so much.

Margaret & Tom always treat our boys great. Our Lab needed some medication while we were gone & Margaret went out of her way to run by our house and pick it up and administer it. Our boys were wonderfully taken care of and we didn’t have to worry about anything while we were out of the State. Will leave them again and again in their care. 10/10 every time.

But she was very accommodating to his needs & helped him settle in quickly! I loved receiving the photo & vid updates during his stay!

Morgan is amazing! This was our first time leaving our babies with anyone outside of family and Morgan made sure to help us feel comfortable by having a meet and greet with her pups and providing pics, videos and texts throughout their stay. She was super flexible with drop-off and pick-up times too. The pups had a wonderful time and came home happy. Highly recommend Morgan.

About: When your dog stays with us, they are not simply being watched. They are being cared for by a professional training team with 17 years of hands-on experience behind every decision we make. We are not pet sitters. We are credentialed dog trainers who have worked with severe aggression cases, fearful rescues, feral dogs requiring full rehabilitation, sport and competition dogs, working breeds, and restricted breeds. We hold an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator certification, are Pet CPR certified, and carry multiple professional accreditations earned across nearly two decades in this field. We volunteer regularly with local shelters and are frequently called in for dogs that require serious structure and specialized handling. Puppies, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, large breeds, and dogs with behavioral challenges are our everyday work, not a weekend hobby. Your dog's stay will not look like a typical boarding experience. Every single day includes a structured walk, focused basic obedience work, and daily photo updates sent directly to you. Our home has a dedicated trainer on property the majority of the day, with no more than a one to two hour window where dogs may be unsupervised. Evenings include an additional hands-on family member who is active with the dogs. Dogs board in a true home environment with free roam of the house, access to three twin dog beds, multiple elevated cots, rugs throughout, and a doggy door. Our yard is just over half an acre, fully enclosed with a six-foot fence on all sides, double lined on most sides with a buffer between. We have three designated outdoor spaces: an AstroTurf yard, a dedicated potty area, and a large open yard for running and play. Our six resident dogs are spayed, neutered, fully vaccinated, and current on all preventatives. They have lived alongside boarding guests for years and are social, settled, and genuinely enjoy new company. We accept a maximum of four boarding dogs at one time so every guest receives real attention, real structure, and real care. If you want your dog to come home having had a genuinely enriching experience in the hands of professional trainers, you are in the right place. We are not just pet sitters.

About: I will love your dog as if it were my own. I have 2 springer spaniels that love to play. I can give special care for a dog that needs meds or has a special diet. I have had fur babies in the past that require special attention. I work a full time job out of my home so taking in dogs during the week is super easy as I’m home all day everyday. We have underground fencing otherwise your dog will go on a tie out. We have 2 entrances that can accommodate. I can also take crate trained dogs. If you don’t want to bring your kennel we have one to use as well.

Jacob was great to work with! Immediately after our meet and greet, we knew our dogs and cat would be in great hands. We have a one year old Great Dane that has a ton of energy, and Jacob made sure to take the time to play with her and tire her out. We have never seen her as tuckered out as the day after we got back! He communicated well throughout the process, and left our home like he was never there! Will definitely be using Jacob again!

About: Hey everyone! I have been around dogs and cats my entire life! We have many pets around our place and I am the one who takes care of them all. I also breed dogs and so am very comfortable taking care of pregnant mommas as well as puppies. I can match any dog or cat's energy so no matter if they're young and playful or elderly and laidback I am able to adapt as necessary! I currently work two jobs so I am only able to do pet care on certain days. I am able to dog sit on Monday and Tuesday nights. I can walk your dog or cat any time Mondays or Tuesdays, after 9am Wednesdays, and after 12noon on Fridays and Saturdays. Any other times might work but no guarantee. I do not offer pet care at my home but am willing to pet sit at the owners home. I will do my best to take care of your pet exactly as you would! If you have any questions or concerns I will try to answer to the best of my ability!

About: Hi, I’m Madi! I’m a Coast Guard Maritime Law Enforcement officer based at Camp Lejeune with experience in Navy K9 handling. I personally own a high-drive Belgian Malinois named Apollo, so I’m very comfortable with all breeds and temperaments. Before the military, I worked as a ranch wrangler and spent time at several equestrian centers. I’ve also milked dairy cows and cared for a wide range of animals, including exotics. I’m experienced with administering medications and providing special care when needed. Your pet will be in calm, capable hands. I also have current FBI fingerprinting and background checks available for peace of mind! I am currently stationed on Camp Lejeune and have a fairly flexible schedule, if you have any scheduling concerns I will try my best to work around them with you! If it works out for your scheduling I am more than willing to set up a meet and greet prior to my scheduled dates to ensure your pet feels as comfortable with me as possible and for yourself as well!

I was very pleased with Kristina's daily updates and the care she took in watching Nymphadora while I was away. She went above and beyond and even helped put the cover back on my motorcycle when she noticed it wasn't fully on. The photo updates were also nice to receive and made me laugh seeing Nymphadora peeking at the new people in her home.

10/10 service! Beth is amazing at what she does, especially with providing so many updates. I wasn’t at all worried about my SIX kitties while I was out of state when they were in her care! Beth cleaned our home after her staying here, which is something BEYOND any other sitter would do. A big thank you to Beth for providing such amazing service and entertainment for my cats. My life revolves around their care and to be able to have someone as great as Beth to stay with them and care of them in all of the ways was such a weight off my shoulders!! ♥️

About: (Base Access) Hello! I’m a Veteran, Mom of 3 kiddos, married to a Veteran and in my thirties with experience birthing puppies and goats, walking/running with dogs. I’ve taken care of 3 elderly dogs and helped them be as comfortable as possible before dying at home. Groomed our family dogs for years. I’ve helped my dogs and others after surgery and have experience giving medication. We have a single story home with only three steps to the backyard and two to the front yard. My husband and children are wonderful at cuddling and playing with all the dogs we get to meet. We will provide the full spectrum of care needed to help your furbaby feel loved and safe while away from their own family. I’m home most of the day every day, we go on walks as a family in the morning & evening. I have a minivan available for transporting all sizes of animals. We homeschool and my husband helps whenever I need to take the kids to activities. There are very few times where we are all away from home, so we are able to give extra attention. I have a large fenced yard with chickens (in their own fenced area) and my cats are friendly and live outside the home. Our home is a single story and the only steps are three to the backyard and two to the front yard. Our garage is heated/cooled and a great space to keep large kenneled pets. Our neighborhood is quiet and has a great road for walking on.

About: I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a dog. I love to play with them and do anything I can to keep them happy. We’ve got our own house with a fenced in back yard. I am a stay at home mom as well. My kids loves to be outside, so we’ll get plenty of play time! I treat the dogs I watch as they’re my own. Give as much cuddles and play time as they want/need. I will meet all the requirements requested and anything else the dog/owner may need.

About: I have always been the one everyone goes to for animal care. Animals are driven to me. And when I come into somebody's home, the animals always sit with me or love up on me. I know how to take care of a variety of animals from dogs, cats, exotic animals, too farm animals. I have started watching pets on my own and have nothing but great reviews. I work for myself and I need a flexible schedule, as my son is autistic. He loves having animals around as well. I am a single mom and I love the fact that I can teach my son the appreciation for animals and what they bring into the home. When I am able to care for your pet in my home, they are able to socialize with my dog is well. He is very active. He is a lab pit mix. He is friendly and never had any issue with any other kind of animals. Your pet will also have more one on one care. When i do check ups at your home I'm only there for a short time and tend to get anxiety from being alone too long.

About: I have been caring for and watching dogs since I was a young child. Unfortunately, my husband and I are not currently able to get a dog due to the uncertainty of work schedules. Therefore, I decided that there was no better place for me than rover! I would love spending the afternoon walking, playing, hiking, or running with your dog! I have plenty of space for your dog to explore outside, or take them to mini trips to the dog park or to get a pupcup! I grew up with 3 golden retrievers, but have experience caring for pitbulls, dachshunds, boxers, red heeler, pugs, etc. I am also willing to take the time to learn the specific needs of your pet and take the extra step to build a relationship with them to give them the care they need. Please read the "cat care details" to see how I would care for your kitty friends! ☺️ I currently work part time, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I offer boarding 7 days a week and pet walking and at home visits in the afternoons after 3 pm or anytime on the weekends! I have an open yard for your dogs to run or explore. Your doggos are free to lounge on my furniture or bring their own beds & blankies to sleep on. When caring for dogs at their home, I will gladly take them on however long of a walk they're used to. (I love walking, running, and hiking).

About: Hi! I’m a passionate animal lover with 13+ years of hands-on pet care experience, and I truly love what I do. Whether your pet is playful, shy, senior, or needs a little extra TLC, my goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ve worked with animals in veterinary and grooming environments, so I’m comfortable in many pet care scenarios, including administering medications, recognizing signs of illness, and helping maintain coats with brushing or basic grooming.

I’m patient, gentle, and happy to move at their pace—whether that means slow walks, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to their normal routine. Got a high-energy pup? Perfect. I’m an active person who loves long walks, playtime, and outdoor exercise. Got a couch-loving senior? I’m just as happy providing calm company and lots of affection. 🐾What you can expect from me:🐾 • 13+ years of pet care experience • Veterinary medicine & grooming background • Comfortable administering medications • Experienced with senior pets & anxious animals • Active sitter who loves walks and playtime • Flexible schedule for reliable care I treat every pet like family and always aim to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! 🐶🐱

About: Hey there! I’m Allie. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur-babies, and my goal is to help both you and your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I always recommend a meet and greet so we can get acquainted and make sure I’m the perfect fit for your pets. I like to take the time to sit down, get to know both you and your pets, and answer any questions you may have. I moved to North Carolina from Virginia in 2019 when my husband’s military service brought us here. Since then, I’ve been pet sitting full time while completing my college studies. At home, we share our lives with our dog and two cats, who inspire me every day to provide loving, dependable care for all pets. I’ve spent my life around animals and have worked professionally in nearly every area of pet care, including animal hospitals, boarding facilities, grooming salons, and in-home pet sitting. These experiences allow me to confidently care for pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets. Including administering medications and providing extra support for pets with medical or behavioral needs. I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals, from dogs and cats to hamsters, bunnies, reptiles, chickens, goats, and horses. If I haven’t worked with a species yet, I’m always eager to learn. No two animals are alike, and I love discovering what makes each one special so I can provide care tailored to their personality and needs. I am very flexible and able to provide your pets lots of quality time. 30 Minute Drop in: This is a quick visit to check in on your pet. I’ll let them out for a potty break, refresh food and water, give any needed meds or treats, and spend time playing or cuddling. I’ll send you photos and updates along the way. Perfect for a midday break or some company while you’re away. Overnight Stay: Your pet will have company and care throughout the night. I’ll follow your evening routine with dinner, a potty break, any meds, playtime, then stay overnight for supervision and comfort. In the morning, I’ll handle breakfast, another potty break, and fresh water, while keeping you updated with photos and messages. Light home care, like checking mail or plants, can also be included. Ideal for pets who need extra comfort and prefer staying in their own home. When caring for others pets I treat them as my own. Whatever your pet needs, I'll happily accommodate them to the best of my ability. I always triple check doors are locked when I leave, and that there is nothing in reach that could be harmful to your pets. (human food, dog treats, toys etc)

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. Through my veterinary class, I learned how to recognize behavior cues, signs of distress, and how to keep pets safe, calm, and cared for. I also gained experience grooming and handling dogs with gentleness and patience. On top of that, I cared for my own dog for nine amazing years—he taught me that love, trust, and attention make all the difference. I’m a full-time student Monday through Friday, but I get out early on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I’m available for afternoon and evening visits those days. I’m also fully available on weekends, and Saturdays and Sundays are my most flexible days. If you ever need a specific time, feel free to message me I’m happy to work with your schedule! When I visit your home or take your pet on a walk, safety is my top priority. I follow your routine exactly — feeding, potty breaks, and any special instructions you have. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure before heading out. On walks, I stay alert to other animals and keep your pet close and comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have hands on experience working at an animal shelter, where I regularly walked, handled, and cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds. Through this, I’ve worked with energetic dogs, as well as shy or anxious ones who need extra patience and care. My experience has taught me how to read dog behavior and ensure safe leashing and a calm environment. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Pet care fits easily into not my daily routine because I currently have an open and flexible schedule this summer. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and I can adjust my day to day meet to each pets needs. I do attend church on Sundays and Wednesday, but outside of those days I am highly available and committed to providing consistent and attentive care. In my home (boarding/daycare): I provide a calm, safe environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I stick to their usual feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules as closely as possible. Dog walking: during walks, I focus on safety and exercise, making sure each dogs get the right pace and level of activity for their needs. Drop ins: when visiting a clients home, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get bathroom breaks, and receive attention and playtime. I also respect the home by keeping things clean and following all instructions closely. No matter the service, I provide updates and make sure each pet feels comfortable, cared for, and live while you’re away.

About: As a lifelong animal lover with years of experience, I treat each dog like they’re my own, giving your four-legged family member personalized care, comfort, and attention—so you can feel at ease, knowing they’re in a loving home. I currently have a full-time job, but it still leaves me plenty of time to take care of and attend to your pets. In addition to boarding, I also offer walking services, house check-ups, and more. I’m available every holiday and weekend, ensuring your pets receive the attention and care they deserve whenever you need it most. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment to ensure both the pet and owner feel secure. Here’s how I approach each: In My Home: • Safety: My home is pet-proofed to remove any potential hazards, such as exposed wires, toxic plants, and small objects that could be swallowed. I also create separate areas for pets that need quiet spaces, ensuring they can feel safe and relaxed. • Trust: I maintain consistent feeding schedules, regular walks, and offer plenty of attention, ensuring pets feel secure and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos or texts, providing peace of mind. • Environment: I offer a warm, inviting space with plenty of room for pets to play and rest. My home is clean, free of clutter, and equipped with comfortable bedding, toys, and a designated outdoor area for play. In Client’s Home: • Safety: I follow all instructions from the owner closely regarding feeding, medication, and specific care routines. I also do a safety check of the home, ensuring gates are locked, harmful substances are out of reach, and the environment is secure. • Trust: Building trust is key. I arrive on time, follow the owner’s rules, and communicate regularly with updates. This builds rapport with both the pet and the owner. • Environment: I maintain the pet’s usual routine to minimize stress. This includes adhering to familiar walk paths, playtime schedules, and sleeping arrangements in their own home, creating a smooth, stress-free experience. This balance of safety, trust, and comfort helps me ensure that each pet is well cared for, whether in my home or theirs.

Our puppy Kimber loves Madeline! She’s always excited to see her and she comes back tired and ready for a nap. We know Madeline truly cares for our pup and her safety.

Madison was fantastic. We were last minute in our request, but she was quick and gracious. Her communication was perfect and she sent a description of the dog walk and a photo! She was spot on following the details I requested. Can’t wait to use her again!

About: I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a dog. I love to play with them and do anything I can to keep them happy. We’ve got our own house with a fenced in back yard. I am a stay at home mom as well. My kids loves to be outside, so we’ll get plenty of play time! I treat the dogs I watch as they’re my own. Give as much cuddles and play time as they want/need. I will meet all the requirements requested and anything else the dog/owner may need.

Larissa is wonderful! I have a bernese mountain dog and she usually has a lot of trouble adjusting to new environments, but Larissa made sure that she felt comfortable, safe and right at home! Zoe loved her and her family so much.

Margaret & Tom always treat our boys great. Our Lab needed some medication while we were gone & Margaret went out of her way to run by our house and pick it up and administer it. Our boys were wonderfully taken care of and we didn’t have to worry about anything while we were out of the State. Will leave them again and again in their care. 10/10 every time.

Megan took care of my goldendoodle Pinki , You can really see her love for animals. She is so charismatic and attentive. You would be silly not to hire her to care for your animals. She is a package deal!! 10/10 Would reccomend!

Jordan took such good care of my dog over the holiday long weekend. She seems to really care about the animals and she sent me photo and video updates. She also replies to messages quickly, was friendly and flexible on drop off and pickup times which I really appreciated. I would definitely use her services again.

Morgan is amazing! This was our first time leaving our babies with anyone outside of family and Morgan made sure to help us feel comfortable by having a meet and greet with her pups and providing pics, videos and texts throughout their stay. She was super flexible with drop-off and pick-up times too. The pups had a wonderful time and came home happy. Highly recommend Morgan.

About: When your dog stays with us, they are not simply being watched. They are being cared for by a professional training team with 17 years of hands-on experience behind every decision we make. We are not pet sitters. We are credentialed dog trainers who have worked with severe aggression cases, fearful rescues, feral dogs requiring full rehabilitation, sport and competition dogs, working breeds, and restricted breeds. We hold an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator certification, are Pet CPR certified, and carry multiple professional accreditations earned across nearly two decades in this field. We volunteer regularly with local shelters and are frequently called in for dogs that require serious structure and specialized handling. Puppies, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, large breeds, and dogs with behavioral challenges are our everyday work, not a weekend hobby. Your dog's stay will not look like a typical boarding experience. Every single day includes a structured walk, focused basic obedience work, and daily photo updates sent directly to you. Our home has a dedicated trainer on property the majority of the day, with no more than a one to two hour window where dogs may be unsupervised. Evenings include an additional hands-on family member who is active with the dogs. Dogs board in a true home environment with free roam of the house, access to three twin dog beds, multiple elevated cots, rugs throughout, and a doggy door. Our yard is just over half an acre, fully enclosed with a six-foot fence on all sides, double lined on most sides with a buffer between. We have three designated outdoor spaces: an AstroTurf yard, a dedicated potty area, and a large open yard for running and play. Our six resident dogs are spayed, neutered, fully vaccinated, and current on all preventatives. They have lived alongside boarding guests for years and are social, settled, and genuinely enjoy new company. We accept a maximum of four boarding dogs at one time so every guest receives real attention, real structure, and real care. If you want your dog to come home having had a genuinely enriching experience in the hands of professional trainers, you are in the right place. We are not just pet sitters.

About: I will love your dog as if it were my own. I have 2 springer spaniels that love to play. I can give special care for a dog that needs meds or has a special diet. I have had fur babies in the past that require special attention. I work a full time job out of my home so taking in dogs during the week is super easy as I’m home all day everyday. We have underground fencing otherwise your dog will go on a tie out. We have 2 entrances that can accommodate. I can also take crate trained dogs. If you don’t want to bring your kennel we have one to use as well.

About: We offer a private alternative to traditional boarding. Dogs stay on acreage with plenty of outdoor time, but also a structured, safe environment. Each dog gets individual attention, consistency, and a calm experience—especially for dogs that don’t do well in busy kennels. Pet care is a central part of our daily routine. I work from home and spend much of my time on the property, so your dog is rarely left alone and gets consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule so I can provide structured outdoor time in a safe, controlled environment, along with individual care based on each dog’s needs. I also intentionally limit the number of dogs at one time, which allows me to maintain a calm, low-stress setting and give each dog the level of attention they deserve Dogs in my care are treated like part of the family. We keep a clean, calm, and comfortable home environment, and your dog will be included in that same space and routine. I follow each dog’s needs closely—whether that’s a structured routine for feeding, exercise, or any special care—so their experience feels familiar and low-stress while you’re away.

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. Through my veterinary class, I learned how to recognize behavior cues, signs of distress, and how to keep pets safe, calm, and cared for. I also gained experience grooming and handling dogs with gentleness and patience. On top of that, I cared for my own dog for nine amazing years—he taught me that love, trust, and attention make all the difference. I’m a full-time student Monday through Friday, but I get out early on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I’m available for afternoon and evening visits those days. I’m also fully available on weekends, and Saturdays and Sundays are my most flexible days. If you ever need a specific time, feel free to message me I’m happy to work with your schedule! When I visit your home or take your pet on a walk, safety is my top priority. I follow your routine exactly — feeding, potty breaks, and any special instructions you have. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure before heading out. On walks, I stay alert to other animals and keep your pet close and comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away.
