“cruz was well cared for and communication was excellent! from the pictures i was sent, i could tell cruz was happy and had plenty of friends to play with. would definitely recommend, we will board with jordan again!”
“Excellent . My anxious dog calmed down with Alice and went to sleep near her. Alice also sent me the very best pictures. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask for her help again”
“Lauren was an amazing sitter! From the get go she was able to get my normally nervous rescue feeling comfortable. And also made me feeling comfortable leaving for with a sitter after recently relocating to the greater Raleigh area. Lauren was extremely responsive, gave me a tour of her property (with a spacious and gated outdoor area) and shared daily photo and text updates. I’ll absolutely be recommending her to all dog owners, and feel so fortunate to have found a great boarding option for my pup!”
“Ruby had a great time at Vanessa’s! She was very well taken care of and had lots of new adventures. Vanessa made sure to send me regular updates with pictures, which I really appreciated.”
“Aubrey was so attentive to the pups! She’s the best! They came home looking very well cared for and very happy. Usually my dogs only play together and aren’t interested in other pups but they loved her dog, cooper. Her house is very warm, inviting, and full of life and I have no doubt that they had the best vacation with her and her family. I also had to book last minute because a previous sitter fell through and Aubrey was so accommodating and understanding. Highly recommend her…we def will be booking with her from now on!!”
“We were so lucky to have Cathy! Our dog is a bit nervous about new situations, so we told Cathy that it would take a couple days before she would warm up. Three hours later, Cathy sent us a picture of her cuddled up on the couch. Our pup clearly felt right at home and our vacation was stress-free as a result. Thank you Cathy!”
“Sharon boards in her home and has a great play area for the dogs. She is very caring for all of her boarders. We will definitely use Sharon to board our dog in the future.”
“We flew across the world on what was a very stressful holiday trip but one thing I wasn’t stressed about was my dogs! they had a great time with Amy and her family. She takes great pics and gave detailed updates which I appreciated. We will definitely drop the pups off again next time we travel. Thank you!!”
“Heather is truly a one-of-a-kind dog sitter. She cared for my dog Rulo with such genuine love and attention that I felt completely at ease while I was away. Not only did she keep me updated and make sure all his needs were met, but she went above and beyond—she even baked him a dog-friendly cake for his birthday! It’s clear that Heather treats the dogs she watches as if they were her own. Rulo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored his time with her. I couldn’t recommend Heather more highly to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and thoughtful sitter. She’s the best!”
“Argus took care of Zoey when we were out on vacation. He did a good job sticking with Zoeys feeding schedule and also provided extra attention to feed her medication”
“Emily and William took great care of Mia. She had regular walks, playtime and photos shared. When our trip got delayed , they gladly extended her stay. We would definitely have them take care of Mia during our future trips”
“Isabel was great to work with. She came in so clutch, after our original sitter got sick, and we needed to scramble to find someone in a day. It ended up being the best thing that could have happened - as Isabel did a wonderful job. She was fast to respond, and scheduled a meet and greet right away. She lives in a rural area, and has a fenced in backyard - which is ideal for dogs like Brady to roam free and have fun. She was also great about sending pictures and updates - without me having to ask, which I really appreciated. Brady seemed to have a wonderful time, and I'd highly recommend her.”
“Krystene responded quickly to my request and was very pleasant. She sent me pictures of my cat baby and updated me on how he was doing. I was very thankful Krystene was available to care for my cat during a family emergency. I would definitely use Krystene again!”

About: When I was little I got my first cat his name was Oliver. I loved Oliver very much. We would snuggle up together when we went to bed and just cuddle. When he got older he passed away. I have a wonderful connection with cats ever since. And love all animals… but mostly cats.
“Kelly took excellent care of mybtwobpets while I was out of town for a week. He was a great communicator and sent pictures of the cats when he visited. I'd definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone that needs pet care.”
“Alisha was great! My baby is happy and content! She fed him well, took her time to take care of the cat! She even brought our packages from Amazon inside the house ! Highly recommended! Thank you Alisha!”
“Brianna was so great with our pets right off the bat! Even at the first meeting she knew their names and details, having just read their profiles. I appreciated her efforts to get to know everyone (we have a lot of pets!) and her easygoing demeanor with all our little friends. We immediately felt comfortable with her caring for everyone. They were all so relaxed when we got home, I know the pets were comfortable, too. This was my first time using Rover, and it couldn't have been a better experience! We're so happy to have found Brianna!”
“Dennise was wonderful! Arrived at the arranged times and took such good care of our dogs. She spent a good amount of time with them. Everything was perfect when we got home and her communication/pictures during our time away was awesome.”
About: I love playing with and caring for animals. I know it’s hard to be there for your pet at all times, so I would love to help you with your needs. I love to play, walk, bathe, swim, and do pretty much whatever it is your animal needs. I am comfortable with all ages, sizes and breeds. If needed, I can administer medicines. I am available days , weeknights and weekends at all times. I have had my own dogs and other pets since I was 7 years old, so I am hoping that I can care for your pets the way that I have always cared for my own. Pet care is part of my everyday routine. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding on a schedule, meds when needed, and plenty of playtime and snuggles built into my day. I plan my errands and social stuff around animals being let out, fed, and comfortable, so adding your pets into that rhythm feels really natural for me. When I’m in a pet’s home, I stick to their normal routine as closely as possible – same feeding schedule, walk times, and sleeping spots. I do regular check-ins for food, water, potty breaks, and meds if needed, and I always build in playtime and cuddles so they’re not just ‘being watched,’ they’re actually getting attention. I keep the home tidy, follow any house rules you leave, and send photo updates so you can see how they’re doing while you’re away.
“Lily was fantastic. She really connected with my cats right away and cared for them like they were her own. Her communication was spot on with lots of pictures and updates. I felt truly comfortable that my cats were happy and looked after while we were gone. We will definitely book with Lily in the future.”
“Wen did a great job with Moonbeam....she made sure to document and take care of my sweet cat. She was also very organized and took care to make sure she had the details needed.”
About: I have experience with long and short term cat care. I generally have a good read and relationship with cats and am comfortable and experienced (not to mention I love them!). I have experience giving medication (though every cat is different), nail trimmings, etc.
“Autumn did an amazing job watching over our cats for us while we were away. She was diligent, sent daily photos, and was so kind. Our kitties were well taken care of.”
“Elena did an incredible job caring for our babies while we were out of town for a week. She spent lots of time loving and playing with our girl, Salem. She even tried her best to win over our semi-feral boy, Crush. We will definitely book her anytime that we need a pet/house sitter.”
“Danielle and Sebastian did a great job with my cat, he was very happy and calm when I got home which is a great sign! The house was so clean and they took care of the dishes and bedding which was so appreciated.”
“It means so much to a pet parent to know that their animals are well cared for when we are out of the house. Daysi provided great care for our cats when we had to be away for a night. She was attentive and allowed them to warm up to her. Daysi went above and beyond to ensure our routine was followed and sent messages to us along the way. She is conscientious, friendly and easy going. Thank you, Daysi!”
“Deb was so sweet and took such good care of my kitties! I did not have to worry about them at all while I was gone and I really appreciated the peace of mind. She took photos of the girls while I was gone which was so nice to see what they were up to each day. I couldn’t thank her or recommend her services enough!”

“My mini poodle has separation anxiety and Sarah and her husband took great of him. I could tell by the picture of him he was relaxed and felt safe. I can't wait to use Sarah again and recommend that others do the same if you are seeking a warm and kind environment for your babies!”
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with over 10 years of experience working in the veterinary field, so your dog’s health, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m confident caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including those who may need extra patience, structure, or special attention. My fiancé has 15+ years of professional dog training experience, which means your pup benefits from consistent handling, basic training reinforcement, and a calm, structured environment while in our care. We work as a team to make sure every dog feels secure, understood, and well cared for. We’re an outdoors-loving household with dogs of our own, so we truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. Our property includes plenty of safely fenced-in space for supervised play, exercise, and enrichment—perfect for dogs who love to run, explore, and burn off energy. Whether your dog enjoys active playtime, peaceful walks, or just relaxing with people who genuinely love dogs, we’re happy to tailor care to their individual needs. You can feel confident knowing your pup will be treated like one of our own while you’re away. I work full-time Mon-Fri from 8am–4pm, and my fiancé is home during the day, only leaving occasionally for training sessions. Dogs are let outside multiple times throughout the day for potty breaks, play, and exercise. We’re happy to feed, administer medications, and follow special care routines as needed to match your dog’s normal schedule. All pet sitting is done in our home only, allowing us to closely monitor every dog in our care. Our backyard is fully enclosed with a 6-foot privacy fence, providing a secure space for supervised play and exercise. The front yard is enclosed with a 4-foot fence and is typically used when my daughter is outside or for small dogs who prefer calmer, smaller play groups. Our home sits on approximately 1.5 acres, giving dogs plenty of room to stretch their legs while remaining in a controlled, safe environment. Dogs are always supervised outdoors, and we carefully separate playtime when needed to ensure every pup feels comfortable and secure.
“This was our first booking with Tara for our senior dog. The initial meet-and-greet session went very well, and Tara's sweet little dogs were friendly with ours. Tara's large, fenced yard was a wonderful oasis. Tara's experience is obvious, and she sent us several text updates with pictures that put our minds at ease while we were traveling.”
About: Hello! My name is Aubrey And Family My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets (Cooper) and caring for family, and friends over the years. Pets are great companions and I look forward to meeting many new buddies! I am home most of the time, ensuring your dogs receive constant love, care, and attention. We provide everything they need to feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I provide a safe, cozy environment for your dogs, giving you peace of mind knowing they are cared for, comfortable, and happy while boarding with us.
“Erin is very responsive, flexible about timing for drop-off and pick-up and I can tell she loves doggies! She stayed in contact with me throughout Milly's stay to let me know how she was doing! Large fenced in back yard for the pups to run and play! When I picked Milly up, I could tell she had a great time (even slept the three hours home)! I will definitely be using Erin in the future when we travel to Elon to visit my daughter and would recommend her to others staying in the area! Thank again Erin!!”
About: DISCLAIMER * As of 10/26/2024 * If i cannot meet you and your pets before the start of the booking, i will not accept the booking. This has become a safety issue for me. I will no longer be able to accept verbal verification that your pet will be fine with a stranger entering the home. (Exceptions are small puppies) I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 10. My neighbor growing up had 4 cats, that I loved dearly! She was the first person who allowed me to watch her fur babies when she went on vacation! I've pet sat many times since then. Dogs big and small of all breeds from a little pug to a 100lb+ Rottweiler. I own a 85lb pit bull mix and a 10lb weenier dog. 🐶 They are my babies.💗 I can drop in anytime to check on your fur babies. Spend extra time with them. I do bathing, and walks also! If you need your fur babies to be crated, no problem! I will make sure their safety comes first. You can put your mind at ease knowing your pets will be taken care of! This is my full time job, I enjoy every second of it! So day or night I can always do a drop in visit or a walk! Your pets safety comes first! So during a meet and greet I will be going over a small list of questions to make sure I can take care of your fur baby to the best of my ability. With this I create a “pet profile” so when you need to rebook with me I’ve already got a reference to look back at. EXAMPLE; if your dog is good with other animals, or if there is a certain amount of food that needs to be given. These are just notes I make for myself, and so you can rest assured your fur baby is getting the best care!
“I had such a great experience with Evie and Fritz! My dog Miso was so happy and well cared for, and I really appreciated the updates and photos I got throughout the day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. I would definitely book again and highly recommend!”
About: Hello furry friends, I have owned a couple of furry pets of my own and gained experience from walking, feeding, and caring for them as I have worked my way through college and my job. I love dogs, cats and any other animals as well. Being surrounded by furry friends genuinely makes me happier and I would love to provide my services to help other furry parents out. Please don't hesitate to reach out! I currently don't have any obligations as I am a free to walk any furry friend throughout any times of the day. Please reach out! As of now, I cannot make any accommodations for pet in-home boarding. I currently live in an apartment that doesn't allow pets but I am willing do client in-home pet sitting and pet walks.
“Cici loved going to Kelly's! She was wagging her tail and (annoyingly) jumping all over the place for daycare a few days after the meet and greet. She got to play with another dog about her size. Cici was ASLEEP a couple hours after I brought her home. She hardly ever settles on her own! I will definitely be bringing Cici back to Kelly's!”
About: We were raising dogs before we had children. Siberian Huskies, Akitas, rescue dogs, and Icelandic Sheepdogs. There have been dogs in our home for over 50 years. Our pets are a part of the family and greet us each day with a licky kiss on the chin. Our grandchildren love to play with Spensa when they visit. Pet care is intentional and a part of our daily routine. With the morning coffee comes the morning run around the back yard. With my breakfast is the dogs breakfast. If we go for a walk, so does the dog! We all just do life together as we can! We have a fenced yard allowing plenty of room to run and play. Our dog is very friendly and is very comfortable being around other dogs. She is current on all vacinations. Should you required you dog to be crated for any reason, we would be more than willing to comply to your requests.
About: I have never gone a year of my life without owning at least 2 dogs. I have always trained them well with leash training, potty, and crate training. I now am training a service dog (with the help of some classes) and am learning so much more about a dog’s health, needs, and how to learn from them as much as they learn from us. I know that when I go out of town I want the best care for my dogs and I want to provide a good place for other dogs to stay as well. I am a full time online student at the moment so I am available all day everyday, with the exception of future appointments or meetings that will not take more than a few hours out of a day at a time. I am typically home watching over my own dogs at all hours of the day; I do work part time on the weekends though and am usually gone for 5-8 hours at a time onFridays-Sundays (depending on the week). I live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood which provides a standard sized tennis court, which we have basically turned into a play park for dogs! We all have contributed toys to leave at the tennis court and I LOVE brining my dog (and the doggie I am watching over) to the court to run freely for a while and play without worrying about other dogs or being on a leash. Because I have a larger dog (110 lbs; he is a gentle giant), I have a large crate and large bed as well! This will be great for any sized dog whether they are crate-trained or not :)

About: I have had dogs (and cats) since I was 12 years old and I've taken care of many of my neighbors, friends and families pets and they all love me. I'm used to large and small dogs and am happy to chill/play with them or go for a walk. I currently volunteer and foster for a local animal shelter. If you have other animals besides cats and dogs I am happy to take care of them too. Being an artist and an avid gardener I spend my time painting or caring for mine and my daughters ( who lives next door ) gardens so your pets can be with me all day. I have a large fenced in garden with plenty of room for your dog to run and play with my dog and any in my care at the time. You will provide their food and I will strictly adhere to your specified feeding schedule. If I'm taking care of your pets at your home I will follow any rules or guidelines you have in place as I would in my home. Dog walking can be done in your neighborhood or I have a car and can transport to a dog park if you wish.
About: I have cared for dogs of all different ages and breeds from senior Italian Greyhounds to Leonberger puppies. Safety and comfort are my top priorities for pups and I believe every dog needs his or her special time to just be a dog during the day. I have a lot of free time to dedicate to your pup! I am experienced with administering medicine to older dogs/dogs with anxiety. I also have the energy and patience for younger dogs, and am able to walk multiple dogs at a time, if it is needed. I’m available for walks and overnight stays. I have reliable transportation for doggy day adventures! I look forward to hearing from you. Please feel free to ask my any questions you may have. I currently have open availability and am looking forward to meeting new doggo friends for day care, overnight care, walks, and drop-ins. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! When I'm dog-sitting or walking, I am happily and fully committed to your pup. No dog is the same, just as no person is the same. Each family has its own culture and needs. I want your animal friend to be as comfortable as possible, so I will follow any routines or dreams you have for them.

I have also been pet sitting over 25 years ,friends and family have entrusted their precious pets in my care because they trusted my abilities and knew that I would treat their pets as I would my own.

About: I’ve been a proud dog mom for over 25 years and currently have two spunky Chihuahuas who keep me laughing every day. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—from tiny lap dogs to big bundles of energy. I know how important it is to feel at ease while your pup is with someone else, so I treat every dog like family. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, playtime, or just cuddling on the couch, I make sure your furry friend feels loved, safe, and cared for. I also have experience with senior dogs and pups that need a little extra patience or medication, so you can trust they’ll be in good hands. At the end of the day, I believe dogs are the best friends in the world, and I can’t wait to meet yours! 🐶❤️ I'm currently working part time so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I also live close by to Tanger outlets and the Burlington area. I have a yard for my dogs to run, play with toys and fetch. Also I enjoy walking trails at the local parks or arboretum.
“Lindsay is AMAZING!! She is extremely reliable, great at communication, and Ellie LOVES her!! She comes over every day while I’m at work to walk, play with El. I HIGHLY recommend her if you are browsing through caregivers looking for someone to love your dog like you do when you have to be away! I cannot say enough amazing things about Lindsay, I do not worry one bit knowing that she is stopping in to take care of Ellie❤️”

My overnight rate covers a 24- hour period, and walks and drop-in visits are a hour-long period. Pet care fits perfectly within my routine, as I am a college student who is currently online this semester giving me plenty of free time for your furry friends :) I basically spoil my cats rotten! 3 meals a day (one of my cats has a autoimmune disease so he has to be fed a lot to keep his weight up) plus treats and plenty of play time with their favorite toys!
“Daysi absolutely went above and beyond to ensure that all of my pup's needs were understood. Despite Mac being a little bit nervous about new people, Daysi worked to get him to warm up. I highly recommend Daysi to any dog parent.”

About: I’ve been in love with animals at a young age. When I was young I rescued a grey tabby when my mom was going to school. I raised him until he passed in 2020. In his memory, I’ve always been fond about cats. Oliver was not my only furry friend I had. I currently own a dog named Licky, two cockatoos, two pet rats, and an aquarium of fish…. And we have chickens, and ducks in our backyard! and we have three more cats! Boy, Samantha, and Lucy. I’m currently working at a summer camp for individuals with autism. My schedule is flexible during the holiday season. But I’m normally booked by summertime! I make the time to take care of animals if need be! I take care of my animals like they’re my own children. I love all my furry and feathered friends and I love your animals too!
About: I’ve been petsitting for dogs and cats ever since I was younger for family friends. I’m currently studying Animal Care Management and Technology in college. I love all sorts of animals and love caring for them! I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes and personalities, including taking them on walks, feeding and giving lots of attention! I am dependable, patient and committed to making sure every pet feels comfortable and loved while their parents are away. Right now I dogsit for my job! I have full availability so I can give your pets unlimited attention, personalized care and lots of affection. I’m happy to take your dog on walks, feeding them at their regular times and playing with them lots too of course! I try to keep your pets routine as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress while you’re away.
“We had a last minute need to have our dogs walked when neither my wife nor I would be home for 12 hours due to some travel. Nathan picked up the request, and was also happy to come out to the house to meet the dogs first a few days before. He did a great job walking and feeding our dogs, and sent us some very cute pictures. Our dogs loved him, will definitely use again!”
About: Hey, my name is Tiffani! I've been taking care of my own pets since I was about ten years old. Along with that, I have been pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for about the same amount of time. I currently have two dogs, Draco and Rhino, who are both pitbulls, so I have experience caring for big dogs. Although I do not currently have a cat, I have experience caring for cats and kittens and would be thrilled to take care of your furry friend. I will provide a wide variety of services, including walks/potty breaks, feeding, playtime, administering medication if needed, and overnight in-home sitting. I am also happy to help with basic grooming, such as brushing and keeping your pet’s area tidy. My goal is to tailor my services to each pet's needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. As for my availability, I am in college and work part-time, but my schedule is still very flexible. That means I can stop in for quick visits, hang out for longer play sessions, or even stay overnight if your pet needs extra company. Making sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved is always what matters most to me! While I am currently in school, working part-time, and volunteering at an animal sanctuary each week, I am very comfortable managing a busy schedule. In addition to caring for my own pets, feeding, walking, playing, and of course, cuddling, I am more than happy to fit your pets into my routine. Whether your pet needs an hour-long walk or overnight care, I am flexible and prepared to accommodate their needs. My dogs get along very well, even though they were introduced to each other a few years apart. However, they must be fed separately to prevent any fights or food stealing. I also have experience caring for dogs who cannot be in the same space together. Because of this, I am fully capable of handling specific care requests, whether that means feeding pets separately or maintaining a safe distance between them for their safety.
“Reliable and conscientious! Wen went above and beyond when she offered to cover a week's worth of walking for me when I was having trouble finding a walker. She didn't even live close by and offered anyway. Do not hesitate to book Wen.”

I recently left my corporate position and I am excited to do something I am truly passionate about - working with dogs!

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs and cats since I was a little kid. I grew up with dogs. I have a dog of my own and she is my whole heart. I work from home. I have most mornings free and love going on morning walks. I have cared for my dog since she was a puppy, and she is now a special needs senior. I love going on long walks, hikes, or just playing fetch at the dog park. My dog gets along with most other dogs as she is semi-submissive. I have 4 cats as well, and one of them requires daily eye drops.
About: I am a college graduate and I work full time as a server. I’m available on weekdays and most weekends. I have a male black lab at home. I used to have a senior black lab mix but we had to put her down due to cancer. I have experience at the animal shelter and with my own dogs at home. I have lived with dogs all my life and I have lots of experience to take care of them. Dogs are my favorite animal and the one we have is pretty big. He is 90 pounds. He loves to swim and fetch the ball. I love cats and dogs! I want to make your pets as happy as possible. I would be a great pet sitter! I work 4 days a week as a server so pet care fits into my weekly routine! 2025 Schedule: Working location: Hillsborough, Durham, Chapel Hill, Raleigh area In my clients home I will care for your pets by putting on their leash, making sure they have food and water, and looking at the notes from the client. In my home I have a trail and a fenced yard.

“Lauren was an amazing sitter! From the get go she was able to get my normally nervous rescue feeling comfortable. And also made me feeling comfortable leaving for with a sitter after recently relocating to the greater Raleigh area. Lauren was extremely responsive, gave me a tour of her property (with a spacious and gated outdoor area) and shared daily photo and text updates. I’ll absolutely be recommending her to all dog owners, and feel so fortunate to have found a great boarding option for my pup!”
“Ruby had a great time at Vanessa’s! She was very well taken care of and had lots of new adventures. Vanessa made sure to send me regular updates with pictures, which I really appreciated.”
“We were so lucky to have Cathy! Our dog is a bit nervous about new situations, so we told Cathy that it would take a couple days before she would warm up. Three hours later, Cathy sent us a picture of her cuddled up on the couch. Our pup clearly felt right at home and our vacation was stress-free as a result. Thank you Cathy!”
“Sharon boards in her home and has a great play area for the dogs. She is very caring for all of her boarders. We will definitely use Sharon to board our dog in the future.”
“We flew across the world on what was a very stressful holiday trip but one thing I wasn’t stressed about was my dogs! they had a great time with Amy and her family. She takes great pics and gave detailed updates which I appreciated. We will definitely drop the pups off again next time we travel. Thank you!!”
“Heather is truly a one-of-a-kind dog sitter. She cared for my dog Rulo with such genuine love and attention that I felt completely at ease while I was away. Not only did she keep me updated and make sure all his needs were met, but she went above and beyond—she even baked him a dog-friendly cake for his birthday! It’s clear that Heather treats the dogs she watches as if they were her own. Rulo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly adored his time with her. I couldn’t recommend Heather more highly to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and thoughtful sitter. She’s the best!”
“Argus took care of Zoey when we were out on vacation. He did a good job sticking with Zoeys feeding schedule and also provided extra attention to feed her medication”
“Emily and William took great care of Mia. She had regular walks, playtime and photos shared. When our trip got delayed , they gladly extended her stay. We would definitely have them take care of Mia during our future trips”
“Isabel was great to work with. She came in so clutch, after our original sitter got sick, and we needed to scramble to find someone in a day. It ended up being the best thing that could have happened - as Isabel did a wonderful job. She was fast to respond, and scheduled a meet and greet right away. She lives in a rural area, and has a fenced in backyard - which is ideal for dogs like Brady to roam free and have fun. She was also great about sending pictures and updates - without me having to ask, which I really appreciated. Brady seemed to have a wonderful time, and I'd highly recommend her.”
“Krystene responded quickly to my request and was very pleasant. She sent me pictures of my cat baby and updated me on how he was doing. I was very thankful Krystene was available to care for my cat during a family emergency. I would definitely use Krystene again!”
“Jill was wonderful!! We were in town for a baseball event for my son at UNC Chapel Hill. We were headed to FL after the showcase, so wanted to bring our 2yo Aussiedoodle. Jill was phenomenal. She kept our boy—very attentive to all his needs. They took walks and he loved playing with her sweet lab mix. We enjoyed our visit to Chapel Hill knowing that our pup was in great hands. He left Jill’s tired and ready for a long car ride to FL . I’m so thankful! We will definitely reach out when back in town!”
“Tori and her family took such great care of our small older dog who has some health issues including med administration needs and occasional pain due to previous cancer. Everything from getting holly to their home (Tori last minute offered to pick Holly Up and this was a godsend because our trip was last minute and we were trying to coordinate many other things) to start her visit to pick up and updates in between were great. Her sons are very gentle and natural animal lovers so that was not any concern even though our dog generally prefers calm environments. I would highly recommend Tori and her family for caring for your pet!”
“Scott and Ellen have been amazing with Kaiser. They kept me updated eveyday with how Kaiser’s stay was going and sent pictures of them playing together and going for walks. They are the best!”
“Amanda was so sweet. We enjoyed meeting her and talking with her. She responded to our messages promptly. She sent photos of our dogs while she had them. We would highly recommend Amanda as a dog sitter. Thank you Amanda - our dogs had a fantastic stay with you.”
“Denise was great! She sent me pictures and updates. I knew that.Kornwallis was well cared for. Her own dog Grover Cleveland was a perfect host. We would definitely recommend Denise and will use her in the future! Kornwallis approve this message!”
