Highly-rated overnight sitters - Stony Fork
“Erin took great care of our sweet dog, Lily. She was easy to communicate with, replied quickly, and sent pictures to let us know how much fun Lily was having playing in the river with Erin. I will be using her again, soon, and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Alexis is great. Our rescue dog has some anxiety issues but Alexis was very understanding, flexible, and communicative. As a bonus, her dog Addy seems to have the right energy to put our nervous dog a bit more at ease. I would certainly recommend her, I know we will be booking with Alexis again :).”
“Katie & Jeremy were great at communicating and sending pictures of our dogs stay with them. Creature seemed to have a great time and fit in well with them. Def would use them again!”
“Nancy's small farm setting is perfect for dogs who enjoy being outside, snuffling around the paddock, or making friends through the fence with ducks, chickens, a llama, and a donkey! Her dog-centric space is equally suitable for your four-legged couch-potatoes, who will enjoy air-conditioning and comfy beds while they hang out with Nancy while she works. It's a win-win for everyone! A friendly welcome and regular updates throughout their stay put any pet owner at ease. My dogs can't wait for me to go on vacation again :D”
“Great sitter! Highly recommend. Kali was communicative and took wonderful care of our dog. Our dog needed some additional care while we were away and Kali prioritized the dog’s need and we couldn’t have been more grateful! Thank you!”
“Caleb, a fairly recent rescue dog with residual anxiety, spent two weeks with Kristin and took only a few hours to readjust to being back home with us. I think this reflects the attention and secure, loving home that Kristin provided. Caleb had other dogs to play with, a cozy indoor environment, and a regular schedule at his home-away-from-home. I would certainly recommend Kristin and will use her again in the future.”
“Our standard goldendoodle Teddy had the best time with James and his family. We needed somewhere for him to play while we spent a long vacation day away from our house, giving Teddy his own doggie vacation. He was worn out from playing with the other dogs and had a sleepy, relaxing day afterwards. Thank you!”
“I can't say enough about Lacie!!! She is absolutely excellent. We use her whenever we go out of town and never worry about our Emma. We know she is treated as well or even better than at home. Lacie is amazing.”
About: I grew up with feisty terriers, and now have a high energy Dalmatian. I’m up for the task! It’s a pleasure to play hard, and get them tuckered out for cuddle time. By spending time with our Dalmatian, high energy pups will meet their match and older dogs will tap into their youth. Looking forward to it! I work from home, and already have dog-care built into my routine. Our fenced in yard makes it easy for them to run-around. Daily walks around the block. We have a fenced in yard, great for them to run free. We’ve got dog beds, fun toys and lots of fresh water always available.
“By the best dog sitter in the area! Will definitely use her again! I 100% felt my dogs were in caring hands while out of town. Carrie and her family provided a safe and happy environment for my 2 pups! Ten stars!!!”
“Ann and Jaren were absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of my sweet Ernie for 10 days, and I could tell he was happy and loved while I was gone. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good hands. On top of that, they made things so easy for me—I was able to leave my car at their house, and they even gave me a ride to the airport. Truly above and beyond! I’m so grateful to have found them and wouldn’t hesitate to ask them again.”
“Adaira was fantastic, and I’m certain Meatball had a wonderful time! The photos were amazing, and the daily communication was excellent. I’d definitely see if Adaira was available if Meatball needs a place to stay next time!”
“Emily and her family took great care of D-Rex and were very flexible. They sent us a lot of pictures and kept us updated. So glad we found them in such short notice and they were able to accommodate us.”
“Caroline and her family were amazing dog sitters. My nervous little doggy was right at home there! Caroline was so responsive to all my initial questions, sent photos and updates daily, and really made me feel comfortable leaving my furry son at her house. Booking my next stay with her now!”
“Laura is an absolute life saver! She watched my 11 week old puppy on short notice and even agreed to watch him again a day later to help me out of a bind. She has a beautiful huge fenced in yard and a great dog who is so sweet and tolerated my hyper baby well. I can’t recommend Laura enough, I felt so relieved when I dropped my baby off and he didn’t even look back as I left, he was ready to explore and play and made some great friends!”
“Jen was wonderful. Went out of her way to make sure the dog would be safe and happy. Bought her a toy, walked her a bunch and sent her home happy and worn out from playing. She was a lovely person, easy to correspond with, and took great care of Flora. Thank you, Jen!”
“Sharon is a loving and considerate companion that kept our elderly dog Kuma happy and healthy while we were away. Her wonderful attention to his daily needs was outstanding. Kuma enjoyed every minute of the warm and loving care Sharon gave to him everyday. The pictures and videos showed how he loved Sharon and how happy he was. Sharon would be an excellent pet sitter for your pets and we would highly recommend her services.”
“Laird was exceptional in sharing “the life of Addy” while watching our dog…lots of videos and pictures of her. We will definitely be a repeat customer when we visit Asheville again..”

Cat caregivers near you - Stony Fork
“Savannah took great care of my cat Piper and even managed to win her over during the first few visits. It was so reassuring to know that Piper was being taken care of and to receive Savannah's detailed updates!”
“Ashleigh is the absolute best. My kitties love her! I trust her completely with their care while we’re away. She always gives thorough updates and pictures, really gives me peace of mind. She pays attention to details always responds quickly! Cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Ashleigh for loving on our babies while we’re away!”
“Autumn took care of my cat for a long trip at the last minute. She was communicative and quickly visited to meet my cat and learn the routines. She was consistent and let me know that he was being taken care of while I was gone. That made me feel better as I don't like to leave him. I felt like he was looked after well.”
“Karmyn accepted feedback when it was shared, and met our pets needs. She learns their habits and made sure to see them at least once during each visit (scaredy cats!) thank you !”
“Constance was great!! I was a bit nervous leaving my kitty after having her for only a month but Constance made sure to play with her and give her plenty of cuddles and attention. She sent great updates and pictures while I was away and I wasn’t worried one bit. She even got my kitty to use her cat tree! I would 100% recommend :)”
About: Hi there! I have lived and cared for dogs my life.Recently, my family and I spent about a year fostering dogs. We have spent the past couple years fostering kittens through sister kitten. As a result of this experience, we have a large amount of knowledge regarding training and optimal care of various dog/cat breeds and temperaments. We currently have two dogs and two cats. I love all dogs, but large breed dogs, puppies, and elder dogs have a special place in my heart. I will treat your dogs and cats like my own and provide them with play, attention, and care while you are gone. I would love to spend time with your animals while you are away and walk them as needed. I am dependable, trustworthy, responsible, and passionate about dogs and walking! I have flexible availability. I currently work part time so I have ample time and space to make caring for your animals a priority. I am open to care for your animals most days of the week. When your animal comes to stay at my home they will have the option of going for leashed walks on 5 acres. They will also have the opportunity to play in the creek with my friendly sweet dogs.
“I was very lucky to find Elizabeth. I interviewed a few. She took good care of my kitties and house sat for me. She was conscientious,mature, reliable, and gave me peace of mind. Sent cute pics of kitties interacting and was also neat with the house. I will be using Elizabeth again. 🥰”
“I can’t recommend Alex enough!! He was communicative, kind, took so many great photos of our cats during every drop in visit and we appreciated the flexibility when our travel plans were delayed. He went above and beyond and anyone would be lucky to have him watching their fur babies 💖”
About: I have a passion for animals. I worked in a pet store for over year, enjoying being able to help pet owners find what their pets need. It’s rewarding to be able to help pet parents and pets get relief. Animals are giving and loving and I enjoy them so much. I have nine guinea pigs myself (which won’t effect my availability:)) and they are the absolute light of my life. Your pets will get so much love and care with me as your sitter. I love all animals, and I am comfortable with most dog sizes. I grew up with small dogs, rodents, and lizards. I understand that dogs need time outside for relieving themselves as well as exercise and fresh air. Every other kind of pet is also just as amazing, and I’d love to love and care for them too! I will be spending all the time I have with your pet. I wake up early to take care of them and I come home immediately after work to spend the evening with your pet. My job starts early, so I will have most of the afternoon and all evening to spend with them. I spend as much time as possible with your pet. I work full time, but make it a priority to be consistent so your pet knows what to expect from me and feels safe.
“Rachel stayed and took care of my cat over Christmas, despite having a surprise of no running water. She truly went above and beyond. I’m so grateful. She even had to talk to the plumbers and the city. She did a great job of taking care of Thomas. She played with him and did everything I would have done to take care of him.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Stony Fork
“Alexis is great- welcoming, and friendly. Upon meeting her you can immediately tell she enjoys living on her small farm and taking care of animals. We felt very comfortable with our dog hanging out with her. Good communicator. Highly recommend.”
About: * going to be in NYC July 17-21st please don’t request my services in NYC outside those dayes* I have hands-on experience working with dogs in multiple professional settings, including 2 year of shelter volunteering, 1 year as a behavioral kennel technician, 1 year of pet sitting and 10 months as a foster caregiver.I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and temperaments, including infant puppies, senior dogs needing mobility support, reactive dogs, and dogs recovering from illness or medical conditions. My approach is calm, patient, and enrichment-focused, with safety and positive handling as top priorities. If you have a dog you want round the clock specialty care for book with me, as I’m hand on and do rover full time! Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my schedule so your dog always receives dedicated, attentive care. I currently do rover full time , which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and enrichment visits. With me dogs are never left alone for long periods and can get all-day care and companionship. This is my full time job meaning this is a priority for me—not a side hobby. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and routine are always at the center of my schedule. Your dog will have so much fun with me! As I have access to a private dog park where they can get in tones of agility or just somewhere to have zoomies! We also have access to a nice scenic hiking trail. For some of are couch potato friends, we have a nice spacious apartment with pet approved couch to lay on and just enjoy a relaxing, quite place! As for my furry friends that ill be sitting for at there place, I like to give them plenty of play time in there space and yards. Along with nice long walks through the neighborhood! Attention to detail, and love is what I thrive for when taking care of your pet!
“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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Kali sent me updates, with pictures, and was quick to respond when I contacted her. It was a perfect situation, plenty of space and her dogs are great. I am delighted to have her as a resource for my Toby.”
“There are not enough words to express how grateful and appreciative. I am with all of your pictures and kindness and homemade treats. I can tell gunner had a fabulous memorial day weekend doggy daycare party with you.. thank you again so much and we can’t wait to see you again!”
“Kristin was great. This was Ranger first time at a doggy day care and Kristin was very understanding. She sent me an email that he was doing great and then a follow up picture. Thank you so much Kristin. Will definitely contact you next time we are in Asheville.”
“April was wonderful with our dogs! We rebooked with her with a last minute booking request and she was super accommodating and communicative. She made our dogs feel right at home. Highly recommend booking with April!”
“Beth was wonderful with our dog. Mitchie felt right at home before I even left. Beth sent us frequent updates and photos on Mitchie throughout the day that made us feel super comfortable that our pooch was in good hands. We will use Beth's services again while we are in Asheville and we recommend her wholeheartedly.”
“Paul and his fiancé were amazing with our boy, Ezra. As my service dog, he is always with me. There were 2 days of our 16-day vacay that we needed a reliable pet sitter for adventures we couldn’t bring Ezra on: zip-lining in Barnardsville and driving the Blue Ridge Parkway in a 2-seater Polaris Slingshot. Even after a considerately planned meet-and-greet the afternoon before his 1st stay with Paul, Ezra was a little nervous after we dropped him off. Thoughtfully, I received updates and videos to keep me posted. Paul and his fiancé worked with him to build trust and also Ezra’s confidence. By day 2, Ezra did not want his stay to end at pick-up time! When he finally did get in the car, he was happily exhausted and slept the entire drive home. I would definitely reach out to Paul as a pet sitter should the need arise the next time we visit beautiful North Carolina! Thank you both for taking such good care of our Ezra. We truly appreciate all you did to help him adjust and feel comfortable, confident and happy!!! :)”
“Thank uuu Jen!! She was just the best!! We felt so badly requesting to schedule within a day hoping she was available She was so accommodating and asked us about Dottie to know what she needed her personality etc Dot had the best time!! Jen sent photos and messaged We hope to return and will contact Jen!! We highly recommend her!! 🍃🏆🩷🐾😀”
“John and his wife did a great job keeping an eye on my senior dog. They personalized the days activities and walks for his needs and sent me a photo update to let me know he was settled in.”
About: Hi! We’re an animal-loving family with room to roam and a whole lot of heart. We share our home with three wonderful dogs (a Pointer, a German Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix, and an Australian Shepherd) all 7 years and older, plus our cat, Potato. We’re very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and species under one roof. Our dogs are mature, well-socialized, and help create a calm, balanced pack environment. We live on 2 acres with a securely fenced quarter-acre for safe, supervised outdoor play. There’s plenty of space for sniffing, structured exercise, and relaxing in the fresh air. My wife and I are almost always home, so your pet will receive consistent supervision, attention, and affection. We also have a sweet baby, Cooper, who is growing up learning to gently and respectfully love animals. Our home is calm, structured, and family-oriented. In addition to boarding, we also offer drop-in visits for pets who are happiest staying in their own home. Whether your pet needs potty breaks, feeding, walks, medication, or just some companionship and playtime, we’re happy to help. I’m currently a stay at home parent so my schedule is wide open for both days and nights to take on boarding or do visits to other homes. My home has a large fenced area where our three dogs can roam and exercise. I am very reliable and respectful when it comes to entering others’ homes while taking care of their pets.
“We were initially apprehensive about leaving our anxious pup at doggie daycare, but upon meeting Jaren, our worries melted away. Their fenced-in, lush green yard, complete with a variety of dog toys, immediately reassured us. We were warmly greeted by their adorable mini Aussie Shepherd, Bowie, who quickly became fast friends with our dog, Dale. Meeting Ann and their other two friendly doggies only reinforced the welcoming atmosphere. The easygoing nature of the household made drop-offs and pick-ups effortless. Dale returned home pleasantly tired from a day of play, without feeling overwhelmed.”
“My sweet 8 mo old golden retriever, Cedar, had two big days of fun doing daycare at Laird’s home Saturday and Sunday! Beautiful fenced in backyard with lots of room for the pups to play! Cedar came home happy and sleepy. Loved the great communication and photos and videos throughout the day of Cedar living his best life.”
“Stephanie was very sweet and patient with my baby and I am so appreciative. She sent me updates throughout the day which I enjoyed. She was accommodating to my hectic schedule.”
“We were very pleased with Devon. She responded to my inquiries promptly and we were able to set up our dog's day care visit. She texted me a couple of times during the day to let me know how Boone was doing. Boone seemed to have a great day with Devon. He took a long afternoon nap. We will have her watch our doodle again!”
“I'm so glad we found Nate!! He was so patient, easy going and communicated every step of the way. He didn't make us feel like our dogs were nuisances or an inconvenience like a previous sitter made us feel. I was so happy to see both my dogs having so much fun running around with Bilbo in the huge fenced in area. Bilbo is the sweetest dog ever! We're going to be repeat customers.”
About: I’m passionate about providing safe, personalized, and compassionate care for every pet I meet. My experience includes working at “You Work I’ll Play” dog daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels in both group and one-on-one settings. I’ve also completed a dog training apprenticeship with a focus on reactive and aggressive dogs, giving me hands-on experience in behavior management, body language, confidence building, and creating calm, structured environments for anxious or high-needs pets. In addition to professional experience, I’ve raised and trained puppies from a young age, focusing on basic manners, leash skills, crate training, confidence building, and healthy socialization. I understand that every dog is different, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, understood, and loved while in my care. 🐾 I currently work part time, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and flexibility to the pets in my care. Because of my schedule, I’m able to provide consistent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feedings, medication administration, and companionship throughout the day rather than pets being left alone for long periods of time. Animal care is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my daily routine, and I always strive to make sure each pet receives personalized attention, comfort, and a safe, loving environment while their family is away. 🐾 I provide flexible, full-spectrum pet care both in my home and in clients’ homes depending on what works best for each pet and family. In my home, dogs have a calm, structured environment with supervised care, enrichment activities, and access to safe exercise. I also have access to a private dog park, which allows for secure off-leash play, enrichment walks, and controlled socialization when appropriate for each dog’s temperament and comfort level. For in-home care, I maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, medication, and comfort habits—so pets feel secure in their own space while you’re away. I also work alongside my partner, a canine behaviorist, who assists with select bookings when additional support is needed or if I’m ever fully scheduled. This allows for consistent, knowledgeable care even during busy periods, especially for dogs with behavioral needs or those requiring extra structure and guidance. 🐾

“My puppies are so happy and chill after their walks with Alexis. Alexis sends me the route, distance, and a pic. Pups like her so much they wait for her on her days off! So glad I did this for us.”
“I highly recommend Laina. I hired her to take and pickup Peace at daycare. Peace has anxiety and Laina was very gentle with him. She has patience, compassion and very understanding…..which is what I need when it comes to Peace. Thank you Laina! 😊👏😊👏😊👏👏👏👏❤️”
“I am so glad to have chosen Savanah to walk my precious girl, Scout, while I’m at work. She gives thorough and thoughtful updates and gets amazing photos of my happy girl. Savanah is so sweet and you can tell she really cares. She is reliable and a great communicator. She did everything I requested and was sure to confirm she did so at each visit. Scout was extra playful and happy everyday after Savanah’s visits!”
About: I’ve taken care of and fostered dogs and cats for 20+ years. My husband and I specialize in hospice and behavioral/medical special needs animals. I have experience with anxious and aggressive dogs; I am happy to provide medication and fluids as needed; I have experience dealing with seniors and puppies alike. We also provide private rooms for boarding cats in our home, or are happy to come to you. I also have horses and manage a farm in town, so I have experience with livestock and farm animals. I’d love to get to know your fur babies! I am self employed and have great flexibility to provide your pets with the care they need. I am happy to take time to provide the necessary attention and enrichment for your kids while you are out of town. We currently have 4 rescue dogs and 10 rescue kitties with various medical and behavioral challenges. I have worked with a veterinary behaviorist and trainer in town, and have learned to manage pet care with fear-free training. I am happy to engage with your pet in the manner you prefer. We offer private rooms for cage-free cat boarding, so your kitties feel safe and comfortable. I am comfortable walking dogs as needed and providing appropriate play and enrichment for your kids.
About: I have had either dogs, cats, or a combination of the two my entire life. I have experience working in an animal hospital as a veterinary technician for 5 years. I can also care for many fish, reptiles, invertebrates, and amphibians. I like to stay active, so I don't mind taking your beloved pet for long walks. I work in the evenings. This makes me available to take care of pets in the mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule, I just ask for a day's notice to work bookings into my schedule. Since, I live in an apartment complex. The complex has pet restrictions. I would not be a suitable option if you want your pet boarded.
“Alexis was amazing. She always made sure I had updates and photos everyday. She went above and beyond for my pups and made them feel super comfortable. I will definitely be booking her from now on and recommending her to everyone I know.”
About: My past experience with dogs is lots of walking,hiking and playing. Most of my care taking has been either in my home or the dog owners. I frequently care for my past neighbors animals, chickens, cat and dog. Other dog sitting I have done has been for friends. I live within 15 to 20 minutes north of Asheville on a beautiful couple of acres that are fenced in. I am very caring so I love to show my affection towards animals and people. My space is clean, quiet and cozy. I would be different from other sitters because of my flexible schedule, my nurturing spirit and my impeccable references. Also I love hiking so the dog would be my hiking buddy! I am willing to negotiate price depending on location and situation.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities — including my own doodles. I offer reliable, loving pet care that includes daily walks, playtime, cuddles, and personalized attention. Whether your pup needs a quick stroll or overnight care, you can count on me to treat them like family. I have the flexibility to build my day around your pet’s needs for potty breaks, walks, playtime, or cuddles throughout the day. Mornings, afternoons, evenings — I’m available to match your pet’s routine, whether that’s a quick midday drop-in, a long walk, or staying overnight for full companionship. Your pet won’t have to wait long for attention — I’ll be right there to give them the care, love, and exercise they deserve. When I come to your home, my goal is to keep your pets happy, safe, and stress-free by sticking to their usual routine. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of love, playtime, and potty breaks. For cats, I’ll refresh litter boxes and give them attention (or space!) depending on their personality. If your pet needs medication, extra walks, or just a little more TLC, I’m comfortable handling it all. I’ll also send you updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family is being cared for just like they would be if you were home. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, affection, and respect for their unique needs. Your pets — and your home — will always be in good hands with me. 💜
“My dog has a lot of separation anxiety, and Kristen was amazing with her. The communication, photos, and updates made such a difference, and I felt completely at ease knowing Rosie and Pete were loved and cared for. They’re my babies, and I’m so thankful to have found someone who understands that. Thank you!”
About: “I have taken care of dogs my whole life and currently have a sweet pug puppy named Willow. I love taking dogs on walks, giving them playtime, potty breaks, snuggles, and lots of attention. I treat every dog like my own — with patience, kindness, and positive reinforcement. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or an overnight stay, your pup will feel safe, happy and deeply loved in my care I work from home as an artist and am almost always here, so your dog will get consistent walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles throughout the day.

Dogs are welcome on the furniture and in my bed (just like my own pups). I treat every dog like part of the family — with lots of love, patience, and positive reinforcement. 🐾
“At the last second I needed dog walkers - for a week - my dog is more like a cat…needs no attention, but needs walked twice a day and fed. There was no time to meet Hanna, but I sent her detailed instructions on how to get into my house, find the dog, leash him and walk him, feed him, throw a med into his food and shut the house up and leave. You have to have a lot of trust that all that would be done without ever meeting Hannah! EVERYTHING was perfect…the dog was tended to, looked happy, Hannah said he’s doing great and as a result I could relax and enjoy my time away. RESPONSIBLE AND GREAT COMMUNICATOR! I hope she’ll help me out in the future!! FIVE STARS AND MORE!”
About: Hello! Lots of pet care experience, mainly cats and some dogs, along with smaller animals including gerbils, hamsters etc. Never was allowed to have a cat or dog growing up due to allergies in the family but always took the opportunity to care for pets whenever I could to get an excuse to hang out with doggies or kitties. I love spending time with animals and I appreciate all their unique attributes and what they mean to their humans, and I always make sure to do the job right and that the animals are cared for according to all instructions and specific preferences/needs. With me, your furry (or not) friends are in good hands! I'm available on a flexible basis and it's best to touch base to see about availability in days or weeks to come. Thanks for reading!
About: My passion for animal care has made it my world! I am a veterinary professional located in the WNC. Welcome to my world of animals! When I am not taking care of your furry friends I work full time as a Vet Tech. My care taking time is best on the weekends. I have four pets! Ranging from reptile to furry. If you want your pets to be social and play all day, let them spend time with us🐱
About: I have taken care of all different types of pets since I was a child. I have raised dogs, cats, chickens, opossums, turtles, etc. This included walking, feeding, bathing, changing out liter, cleaning a chicken coop, baby opossum care. I have experience with both puppies/kittens and older dogs/cats. I recently lived with my college roommate for three years she had a poodle named Groot that I helped her raise from a puppy. He had a very sensitive stomach so he was on a special diet and prebiotics. She had a very busy schedule and often times had to go out of town. So, I helped take care of him. This included feeding, potty breaks, and hikes for exercise. I am a very proud dog aunt! I recently moved to Ocean Springs and I am excited to be able to create bonds with the animals and owners in my new community. I am currently working part-time remotely so I have a very open schedule. Especially during the weekday and most of the time on weekends. I want to use this as an opportunity to create a weekly schedule that gets me out of my house and off the computer. Also the joy of getting to hang out with pets. A meet and greet is a must for me. I always want a new meeting between you, me and your pet to be one that sets us up for success. Every pet is different. I want to use the meeting as a way to learn their uniqueness and get them comfortable with me.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a small child. I have owned two dogs of my own and trained each of them. I have a flexible schedule to meet any needs you may have for your furry friend. I’ve been a registered nurse for 25+ and am taking a hiatus from nursing to heal from a traumatic assault. I have found pet care to be the most healing. Waking in the outdoors with pets has helped me a great deal. I do have a dachshund puppy that would need to accompany me if house sitting. He does not have to come for drop in visits or walking services. I am currently available with an open schedule and can accommodate most any needs. I live alone and can devote all of my attention to your pet. If your pet is in my home, they will be just like family, typically sitting with me. I have a dog park near by for off leash adventures and lots of room for leash walking. When in your home, I’d mirror a similar routine with your pet that you have for day to day.

“Alexis is great. Our rescue dog has some anxiety issues but Alexis was very understanding, flexible, and communicative.

“Nancy's small farm setting is perfect for dogs who enjoy being outside, snuffling around the paddock, or making friends through the fence with ducks, chickens, a llama, and a donkey! Her dog-centric space is equally suitable for your four-legged couch-potatoes, who will enjoy air-conditioning and comfy beds while they hang out with Nancy while she works. It's a win-win for everyone! A friendly welcome and regular updates throughout their stay put any pet owner at ease. My dogs can't wait for me to go on vacation again :D”
“Great sitter! Highly recommend. Kali was communicative and took wonderful care of our dog. Our dog needed some additional care while we were away and Kali prioritized the dog’s need and we couldn’t have been more grateful! Thank you!”
“Our standard goldendoodle Teddy had the best time with James and his family. We needed somewhere for him to play while we spent a long vacation day away from our house, giving Teddy his own doggie vacation. He was worn out from playing with the other dogs and had a sleepy, relaxing day afterwards. Thank you!”
About: I grew up with feisty terriers, and now have a high energy Dalmatian. I’m up for the task! It’s a pleasure to play hard, and get them tuckered out for cuddle time. By spending time with our Dalmatian, high energy pups will meet their match and older dogs will tap into their youth. Looking forward to it! I work from home, and already have dog-care built into my routine. Our fenced in yard makes it easy for them to run-around. Daily walks around the block. We have a fenced in yard, great for them to run free. We’ve got dog beds, fun toys and lots of fresh water always available.
“By the best dog sitter in the area! Will definitely use her again! I 100% felt my dogs were in caring hands while out of town. Carrie and her family provided a safe and happy environment for my 2 pups! Ten stars!!!”
“Emily and her family took great care of D-Rex and were very flexible. They sent us a lot of pictures and kept us updated. So glad we found them in such short notice and they were able to accommodate us.”
“Caroline and her family were amazing dog sitters. My nervous little doggy was right at home there! Caroline was so responsive to all my initial questions, sent photos and updates daily, and really made me feel comfortable leaving my furry son at her house. Booking my next stay with her now!”
“Laura is an absolute life saver! She watched my 11 week old puppy on short notice and even agreed to watch him again a day later to help me out of a bind. She has a beautiful huge fenced in yard and a great dog who is so sweet and tolerated my hyper baby well. I can’t recommend Laura enough, I felt so relieved when I dropped my baby off and he didn’t even look back as I left, he was ready to explore and play and made some great friends!”
“Sharon is a loving and considerate companion that kept our elderly dog Kuma happy and healthy while we were away. Her wonderful attention to his daily needs was outstanding. Kuma enjoyed every minute of the warm and loving care Sharon gave to him everyday. The pictures and videos showed how he loved Sharon and how happy he was. Sharon would be an excellent pet sitter for your pets and we would highly recommend her services.”
“Laird was exceptional in sharing “the life of Addy” while watching our dog…lots of videos and pictures of her. We will definitely be a repeat customer when we visit Asheville again..”
“Michelle and her husband took great care of Lucille! They sent plenty of pictures and took her on vacation to the lake. Thanks again for everything. Lucille was so happy with you!”
“Ashley did an amazing job with our two dogs!! They were so happy to be with her!! They were extremely well taken care of!! Thank you so much and we would love to use her services again!!”
“Sarah was extremely easy to work with and Jasper had a great time with her dog Jimmy and her family. Communication was excellent and Jasper loved his time at her home!”
“Jordan was super sweet and easy to book with! She was very responsive and accommodating, she took great care of my Lottie girl and I will 100% be using her in the future! Thank you, Jordan!”
“My 9 year old baby loves his first stay with Diane while I had to leave for the weekend!! She kept me updated with texts and pics. And he was so well cared for. Can’t wait to bring him back.”
