Chastity watched our pup with short notice and did such a fantastic job. She’s very professional and introduces her own dogs one at a time. Willow was so tired after a few days of playing at her house and we were so grateful for it! Thank you so much!

I wish I could give 10 stars! This is definitely the best boarding experience we've ever had. They provided her so much outside and play time. Emma is usually so anxious in new places, but she really came out of her shell here. She got along great with their dog. You can tell Aanchal really loves dogs and treats each one with care. She even came back with a cute bandana!

It’s a comfort for me when my dog, Zeke, is in Sandy’s care. When I’m away I can focus on what I need to do and I don’t worry about Zeke at all. I’m very grateful for Sandy’s loving care of my little dog. She’s a very wonderful and kind person.

About: I absolutely love animals. I've had dogs and cats since I was 6. Since then I've help train a service dog and fostered many other dogs. I currently have three dogs: chihuahua mix, pug rat terrier mix, and a great Pyrenees. I currently am a personal trainer so I don’t have a set schedule. I will be able to let the pet outside or spend time with them in between clients. I can take the pets on daily walks, depending on their schedule and when they like to. I like to know where the food is and if they get treats for doing specific things.

About: I've had animals in my home since I was 6, specifically dogs. I've had 2 dogs growing up, a lizard and recently a cat. Any time any of my relatives leave home, I am always the first person they ask to come take care of their animals. I am unemployed at the moment due to recently moving to the Hubert area, so I have plenty of time for your beloved pets. I can play, walk and just spend quality time with them to make sure they get the love and attention they need. The first thing I like to do when I make my check in visits is to get to know them, especially if they are first time visits for me. I'll feed them and take them out to the bathroom and then spend some quality time with them so I can get to know them. Then I like to end my visits with a nice walk to get some of their energy out and get them some fresh air.

About: Even though I may have never owned a cat myself, I've been able to stay with cats from family and every time I've always paid close attention to it's behavior and needs and I have never distressed a cat once. Every cat I've been with has been the sweetest because I am always mindful of it's boundaries. Many people dislike cats because they're "mean", however i understand that there's a mutual respect between humans and cats if their boundaries are respected. I fully understand that leaving your cat with someone who doesn't have much experience may concern owners, but I am hoping that I will be trusted enough to gain the experience I need. I am committed to doing anything your cat may need such as litter box cleaning, feeding, playing, even leaving it alone if it wants me to. I truly adore cats and I would love to be trusted enough to stay with your pet to learn even more about cat care.

About: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years. All of my pets have lived long, healthy lives based on excellent feeding, grooming, and regular medical care. I genuinely love animals and have a very watchful eye on their well-being. I am a retired school administrator with a 36-year history of creating productive learning environments and protecting the lives of thousands of school children. Care-taking is my thing. Now, I have a very flexible schedule/calendar, and I am wide open to opportunities to meet and care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I am available to follow instructions for drop-in or pet/house-sitting in the client’s home—including feeding and letting dogs out for potty breaks, feeding and checking in on cats, and feeding fish or birds.

About: Hello, my name is Tianna and I’m 28. I’ve been a huge animal lover since I was a child where I’ve brought different animals home to take care of such as kitties, turtles, and even a peacock! I’ve fostered and owned a variety of dogs from lap dogs to larger breeds. I have 4 dogs of my own and another 5 that reside back in Texas with my family. 2 are seniors so senior dogs have a special place in my heart! I currently work at a fitness studio where I’m gone for 2-3 hours max a day but can schedule around to accommodate to you and your pets needs! I have a smoke free home where your pets can lounge on the sofa and bed :) I have a small fenced yard and 4 small dogs who are crate trained so they can be put away to keep your dog comfortable and safe if needed. **My pets are currently back in Texas**

About: What sets me apart is that I actually stick to your pet’s routine and pay attention to the little things. I also don’t mind helping taking care of exotic pets because I am trying to be an Exotics/Wildlife Veterinarian and have always had a passion for exotics, so I’ll be more than happy to help! I’ve helped with puppy training like potty reinforcing basic commands, but I am always willing to learn any crate training or potty training. I’m also comfortable with senior pups and making sure they get extra patience, slower walks, or medications if needed but I will need to learn how to administer your pup’s medication. I always send updates and photos so you know your pups are happy and taken care of. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I’m mostly available in the afternoons. I usually plan my classes and responsibilities earlier in the day, so afternoons are open for walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. It works out great because I can give pets my full attention without feeling rushed, and I’m able to stay consistent with their schedule. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow feeding and walk schedules, give them plenty of attention, and respect their personality and space. I’m also very respectful of the home and always send updates and photos so owners feel confident while they’re away.

About: With 4 years of experience caring for animals, I provide loving, reliable dog sitting in a fun and active environment. I’m very flexible and have open availability to fit your schedule. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor time! We go on walks every 3 hours and spend about an hour outside during each potty break usually at the nearby dog park where my pups love to run and play.

My special skills include walking/running for a great period of time, have lots of energy, and I will leave you and your dogs with happiness and great joy. I grew up with different animals and I owned and raised generations of dogs. My family and I love all animals with all our heart. Everyday I wake up with the mindset of starting my day off with feeding my pets, walking my pets, playing with my pets, and bathing my pets. This will be the best and most joyful job I will ever have. I always help my grandma Annie whenever she has to go house sit and watch pets. She doesn't really have to do anything since I help her. I also love baking my own fresh treats for the pets which they seem to enjoy a lot. Daily: • Morning: Feed, potty break/walk, quick grooming check • Afternoon: Potty/play break, some mental stimulation • Evening: Feed, longer walk or play, cuddle time • Night: Final potty break, fresh water, clean-up Weekly: • Full grooming or bath • Nail trimming (if needed) • Deep cleaning of litter box, bedding, bowls • Restock supplies • Training or socialization session I create a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment whether in my home or a client’s. I follow each pet’s routine, ensure they feel safe and comfortable, and give them plenty of love and attention. In clients’ homes, I respect their space, follow instructions carefully, and provide regular updates to build trust.

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: With over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide dependable, loving, and personalized care that pets and owners can trust. My background includes caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, puppies, senior pets, high-energy breeds, and pets with unique routines or special needs. Growing up around animals and spending years working closely with them has taught me how to read pet behavior, create a calm environment, and build trust quickly. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the genuine connection I create with every animal. I treat each pet like family not just another appointment. I focus on safety, reliability, communication, and making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medication administration, or overnight care, I go above and beyond to give owners peace of mind and pets the attention they deserve. I will be available all summer full time from June- August as I am a high school teacher during the year. If needed I can also continue working part time during the school year. I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where pets are treated like part of the family. In my home, pets receive constant supervision, structured routines, plenty of playtime, exercise, and individualized attention based on their personality and needs. Safety is always my top priority I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space, closely monitor interactions, follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so owners always feel informed and comfortable while away. As a pet owner myself with a friendly golden retriever puppy, I understand the importance of trust, patience, and proper care. My puppy is well-socialized and helps create a fun, welcoming environment for visiting pets while still respecting each animal’s comfort level and boundaries. With over 10 years of hands-on pet experience, I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and someone pet owners can truly count on for peace of mind.

About: • All breeds, temperaments, sizes & quirks • Administering medications • Decade of dog care and training experience Hi, I’m Kylie! I’ve been working with dogs for over a decade, including time spent learning under and alongside professional dog trainers. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—and I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and quirks. I run my services out of my home, where every dog is treated like family. We’ve created a dedicated dog room designed for comfort, structure, and relaxation, giving pups their own safe space when needed. Our fully fenced-in yard provides plenty of room for supervised play, exercise, and fresh air, so your dog can enjoy a balance of activity and downtime. I do my best to keep each pup’s daily routine as close to their at-home schedule as possible, which helps them feel comfortable and lowers stress. My care is always personalized—whether your dog needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or structured guidance, I adjust to fit their needs. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I make sure every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well taken care of. During the day, dogs in my care follow a balanced and structured routine designed to keep them happy, comfortable, and engaged. Potty breaks are offered every two hours (unless an owner requests otherwise), giving each pup plenty of chances to go outside and stretch their legs. Playgroups are always supervised and matched based on each dog’s likes, dislikes, and play style, so social time is safe and enjoyable. Mini training sessions can be worked into the day upon request, reinforcing good manners and keeping pups mentally stimulated. To help dogs recharge, I include structured nap times where they can relax in a calm environment. And of course, there’s plenty of time to hang out with humans—whether that’s lounging on the furniture for snuggles or just enjoying companionship. This balance of activity, rest, and affection ensures every dog feels at home while staying with me. As a stay at home wife my entire day is structured around our own dogs and our visiting dogs. In my home we do boarding and daycare! Boarding dogs are on a slightly different schedule than daycare dogs, as they’re with me all day instead of only during the day. Boarding dogs routines vary based off energy level, temperament and their usual routine at their own homes. Depending on the dogs temperament and who they get along with we swap play groups around just to ensure the best time for everyone! All dogs in my home are treated like family. I’d want my own dogs to be treated as such during boarding or daycare, so it makes sense that i treat all client dogs the same.

About: Hi! I'm Lindsay, a lifelong dog lover and owner, and caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I've been pet sitting since college, both in my own home and in clients' homes. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I work hard to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. From energetic puppies to laid-back senior dogs, I enjoy building trust with pets and providing the same level of care I would want for my own animals. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. 🐾❤️ I'm currently on summer break from teaching, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I can provide consistent attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship to help keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away. I want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away. I will follow your pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, and playtime. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to help pets feel safe, relaxed, and happy.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember ! Growing up, I spent much of my time volunteering at a local animal shelter alongside my grandmother, where I helped feed the cats, clean their spaces, and make sure they felt safe and cared for. I was also actively involved in her animal rescue work, regularly attending adoption events , walking and caring for adoptable dogs and cats , and helping animals find their forever homes. Those experiences taught me how to understand animal behavior, build trust with shy or nervous pets, and provide calm, patient care. Today, I’m a proud cat mom to two rescue cats of my own, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. I’m experienced with animals of all personalities , from playful and social to timid or independent, and I always take the time to make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, or just a gentle, reassuring presence while you're away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule. Any time you need , I can likely make it work ! Important info for house sitting bookings : I can provide care for most of the day & night. When booking this service , please send me a message and answer the following questions : - Are there any specific care instructions I should be aware of ? - Can your pet be left alone ? If so , for how long at a time ? I will be happy to petsit your animals in your home. Whether that means drop ins, house sitting, or dog walking, you can trust that your animals and your home will be in good hands with me. You can rest assured that when you book with me , your animals will get my full attention and care, and you as their owner will receive clear communication and updates from me every step of the way. I own two cats of my own that I love very much, so I understand just how important it is to make sure they are in good hands , safe , and well taken care of while you are away. I will take care of your fur babies as if they were my own !

I do have certifications in dog behavior. I work around 6 hours a day with my current facility and am always upfront and honest about my availability.

I follow instructions set by owners depending on how strict you would like to be. I can normally get a dogs vibe and learn who I have to be slow and gentle with and which dog is super friendly and ready to play right away! I follow set times for feedings, vitamins, meds, etc.

About: I’ve cared to dogs since I was 12, beginning with family pets and expanding to neighbors and friends. I helped raise a littler of ten black lab puppies, ensuring they received proper nutrition and constant affection. I’ve cared for many breeds in a variety of settings, including watching and managing up to 5 black labs at once, taking them on structured walks, playing with there favorite toys and keeping their routines calm and consistent. My experience cover feeding schedules, baths, crate safety and off leash play. I am currently a student at coastal Carolina community college as a dental assisting student. Mondays and Thursday I get out of class at 11:40 and 12:50. Tuesdays I arrive at school @11 and leave @3:40, Wednesdays 8-2:40 and Fridays 10-2:40. On weekends I’m available and times after school. I have a back yard, not fenced in. Pets in my home are not treated bad, not screamed at or hit to be punished. They are always treated like my own, with cuddles, little snacks if allowed and plenty of play time. They would go on walks and be seen by other individuals for petting if the owner is comfortable.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them genuinely makes me happy. I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was young and currently have two dogs of my own, Sinclair my German Shepherd and Krypto my Lab, along with my two cats Marley and Ash. Because I have pets myself, I understand how important it is to find someone patient, trustworthy, and attentive to care for them while you’re away. I’m very comfortable with large breeds, high energy dogs, multi pet households, and giving pets the love and attention they need to feel safe and comfortable. My shift work schedule also gives me a flexible amount of free time, so I’m able to provide plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, check ins, and quality care for your pets. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because my shift work schedule gives me a flexible amount of free time throughout the week. I’m able to work around different schedules and can provide check ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and quality attention for your pets while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for is something I take seriously. I understand how important trust is when allowing someone into your home and around your pets. I’m very respectful of routines, house rules, feeding schedules, and any special instructions you provide because I know every pet has different needs and comfort levels. I have experience with both dogs and cats, including high energy dogs and multi pet households. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while also giving owners peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I love animals, especially dogs, more than words can express! We have always had small dogs in our family since I was born. I could never imagine living without a dog in my household. In fact I have always had my miniature schnauzers as my fur babies since my early 20’s. I also use my endless dog walks as another form of exercise especially with the awesome beach roads all over the island that we are fortunate to enjoy living on the island. Since I never had children I have extremely spoiled animals. Me and my husband are retired and I work a very part time job so have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. My husband may also like to join in with my walks as well to help keep your pooch entertained and continue with our daily exercise regimen. If your pet does not do well on long walks please mention that so we don’t wear them out too much! I would like to walk your dog on the beach or beach access if allowed. If you would rather we stay on the neighborhood streets that’s fine too! My house/pet sitting service will include feeding, playing, walking, cleaning up pet waste in yard or litter box and light housekeeping such as vacuuming up pet fur if applicable. I have a very flexible schedule. I do work a few days a week part time but only 4-5 hr shifts at a time. I would love to be your pet’s next best friend! I am an extremely anal retentive pet owner and home owner. I probably take better care of my pets than my own self! We do not miss any yearly vet appointments and are very attentive to any ailments that may come along. I always say the worst part of being a pet owner is when they have to cross the rainbow bridge.

About: I currently work at an animal rescue and provide daily hands-on care for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I have experience with rescue dogs, anxious or shy dogs, large breeds, feeding routines, behavior monitoring, and helping dogs feel safe and comfortable in new environments. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable handling both energetic dogs and dogs that need extra structure or reassurance. I’m also Fear Free Shelter Certified, with training in safe, low-stress handling techniques, and trained in Pet CPR & First Aid. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine through my work at an animal rescue, where I care for dogs and cats every day. My schedule varies week to week, but I keep my availability updated and make sure any pets in my care receive consistent attention, exercise, enrichment, and care. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and positive environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and comfort levels while also making sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, enrichment, and affection. I understand that every animal adjusts differently in new environments, so I use patient, low-stress handling techniques to help them feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I follow routines and instructions closely so pets can stay happy, comfortable, and relaxed while you’re away. I also have two fur babies of my own who are basically my children. One is a rescue with a difficult past and the other struggles with anxiety, so I truly understand the importance of patience, trust, and treating every pet like family.

About: What sets me apart is my calm, reliable approach and my ability to tailor care to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with puppies, including basic training reinforcement (potty routines, leash manners, crate comfort, and positive reinforcement), as well as senior pets who may need extra patience, gentle handling, medication reminders, and close monitoring. I’m attentive to routines, quick to notice changes in behavior or health, and I prioritize clear communication with owners, regular updates, photos, and notes so you always feel at ease. Whether it’s high-energy play, slow senior strolls, or maintaining training consistency, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m an online college student at Jefferson State, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to plan my classes and coursework around pet care responsibilities. Because I’m home most of the day, I’m able to provide consistent attention, timely potty breaks, feeding on schedule, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship. This flexibility is especially helpful for puppies who need frequent check ins and senior pets who benefit from routine and supervision. I structure my study time around the pets in my care rather than the other way around, so their needs always come first. This setup allows me to be reliable, responsive, and fully present for the pets I’m caring for throughout the week. I provide attentive, individualized care with pets that are in my client’s home, and I always follow the routine and preferences you set. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I stick closely to their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest. I make sure litter boxes, yards, and feeding areas stay clean, administer medications if needed, and give plenty of affection and enrichment. I also keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or health and provide regular updates with photos and notes.

About: I have always grown up with animals and my love for them led me to a job at a pet resort. I was a kennel technician for 4 years which provided me great insight to care for all types of furry friends. I just graduated college from UNC Charlotte and home in Emerald Isle for the summer. Most days I workout and hang with my family so my schedule is pretty flexible. I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close as possible to what they’re used to because I know how stressful change can feel—especially for anxious pets. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I make it my priority to provide comfort, consistency, and lots of love while they’re away from their parents.

Chastity watched our pup with short notice and did such a fantastic job. She’s very professional and introduces her own dogs one at a time. Willow was so tired after a few days of playing at her house and we were so grateful for it! Thank you so much!

I wish I could give 10 stars! This is definitely the best boarding experience we've ever had. They provided her so much outside and play time. Emma is usually so anxious in new places, but she really came out of her shell here. She got along great with their dog. You can tell Aanchal really loves dogs and treats each one with care. She even came back with a cute bandana!

Marcia is very friendly and has lots of experience with all types of dogs. She treated our English bulldog very well and was accommodating to the fact that she should be kept separate from other dogs.

I was very nervous leaving my dog for the first time in a new place. Brittany and Matt were great with Ghost, he can be a handful with his anxiety and they were patient and understanding. They sent updates and videos of him playing with their dog King. We will definitely use them in the future if we need a sitter.

Reagan took very good care of our girls. She sent pictures and updates and responded pretty quickly when I asked about them. Her home is non smoking so I didn’t have to worry about taking them to the groomer right away. Would definitely have her dog sit for us again if she’ll have us. lol. Thank you Reagan!
