“Cathy took on our quirky, energetic boy with optimism and open arms. She patiently took notes on all his behavioral quirks and was happy to accommodate his need for longer walks. This was our first time boarding him, and he seemed to thrive at Cathy’s and enjoy tons of snuggles and pets. It was so nice to feel so at ease about him while we were traveling and we highly recommend Cathy!!”
“Emily and William are GREAT sitters. Copper had the best time with them. They had a couple of other dogs while he was there and he made new friends with one of them. We got daily pictures and updates while he was with them. We will be using them again in the future!”
“Agus was very tuned into my older dog’s needs. She had not stayed away from our house in a long time, and she came home happy and in great shape. Harry Potter was a sweet buddy for her.”
“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!”
“Crystal has always been great with Teddy but this time around for our longer trip, she went above and beyond. His fur tends to get very matted so I requested she brush him and he came home with no matting and I am feeling so grateful! Highly recommend her care!!”
“Ashley’s family made Minnow feel right at home! She provides an excellent space for care, play, and rest - our pup was hesitant to leave! Ashley was also incredibly flexible with a last-minute injury changing our dog’s routine and provided everything she needed to stay comfortable.”
“So grateful to Ashley & PJ for always being so kind and flexible ❤️ We never have to worry when Cooper is with them, which means so much to us. Thank you again for helping us out last minute!”
“Amy and John took great care of Ziggy. They sent photos and updates daily and it looked like Ziggy was living his best life at a 5 star retreat, making new friends and keeping busy.”
“Gregg always takes such good care of our dog, Lula. He truly cares for his dogs and gives detailed and thoughtful updates. Our dog gets SO excited when we tell her it’s time time to go to Oliver’s house!!”
“Ashleigh and Jason were amazing! My sweet Izzy was taken into their home like a member of their own family. It was her first stay with them and they made me feel at ease providing updates and sending pictures regularly. When I picked her up I could tell immediately that she was happy and so well loved and taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend Ashleigh and Jason, Izzy will be back with them in July for our next vacation!”

“Marilyn always takes the best care of Luna!! She and her family are true dog lovers and go above and beyond to make sure each dog in their care is well loved and gets the exactly what they need!”
“Rashi was so caring of my pup and she did so much to make him comfortable. She is a wonderful dog lover and always kept me up to date with lots of pictures and messages throughout his stay.”
“Amanda was wonderful to my girl. She treated her like one of the family and my Zorra played with her dogs and she has a nice fenced in area to play. She crated her at night and met all her needs. Amanda was very flexible with my crazy schedule and was also very knowledgeable about dogs. Will book again. Higher 5 star recommend.”
“Tim and Jen and their sweet family were amazing to my fur baby. He loved all the special attention from the kiddos and received countless pets and snuggles. I returned home to a very happy (and tired lol) boy! Definitely will be booking again and recommend this sweet family!”
“I wanna say thank you to Lauren she was really sweet. She was really nice. she took care of my dog really well. She had a great time beginning. She was shy but after that, she had a fun time. I’m so happy for her. I can see my dog. She had a great time she made Friend she slept. I will say Lauren is the best pet-sitter. And hopefully during the future, I wouldn’t love for her taking care of my dog again.”

About: I have taken care of probably more cats that I have dogs at this point. From young to very old. To a pretty good range of breeds, am very open to cats and have been working with them for close to 5 years now.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who would so excited to meet your furry family members! I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was ten years old and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I am also a proud dog and cat mom, so I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for them while you are away. During my undergraduate years at Tulane University, I volunteered at an animal shelter in New Orleans, where I helped walk and care for shelter dogs. I also had the opportunity to work with service animals through my university, which gave me additional experience understanding the importance of patience, consistency, responsibility, and following each animal’s individual needs and routines. I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UNC-Chapel Hill. I’m responsible, dependable, patient, and compassionate, and pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy doing outside of school. Whether your dog needs a good walk and some zoomies, your cat wants some attention (or prefers to pretend I don’t exist!), or your pet simply needs someone to stop by and keep them company, I’m happy to help! 🐾 What I can help with: - Dog walking & exercise -Cat & dog check-ins - Feeding & fresh water -Playtime & cuddles - Cleaning up after pets - Medication assistance when needed 📸 Photos & updates so you know your pet is happy and doing well I’ll always take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and preferences. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to meet you and your furry friend!
“Aspen is the best. She actually loves on our cats, leaves everything spotless, and goes above and beyond for us (bringing in packages, putting away perishables, replacing litter genie bags). I had such peace of mind knowing she was taking care of our boys while we were out of town for a full week. I 100% recommend you book her!”
“This is my second time booking Agus, and I would definitely recommend him! He does a great job caring for the pets and provides consistent updates and pictures of them. He’s great at what he does, and I couldn’t recommend him enough.”
About: I absolutely love cats and have been sitting for them for years now! I have cat sat from 1 cat to 10 all at once! From playing with them to even taking them on a walk, I've done it all! I go to UNC Chapel Hill and would love to help out in any way possible, also would love the income! Hope to cat sit for you very soon!
“Autumn did an excellent job taking care of my two cats. They liked her immediately at the “meet and greet” and were good friends by the end of the visit! She is very conscientious and provides excellent communications. Highly recommend.”
“Natalie was GREAT!! Our cats LOVED her, probably more than they like us even! She was able to coax our very curmudgeonly elderly cat out from her hiding place and interact with her on each of the home visits! Natalie took great photos and shared pertinent and expansive notes about her home visits, too, which put us at ease as we vacationed. Would definitely book again! (Oh, and she brought in our delivered packages while we were away, without prompting, which was much appreciated!)”
“We got SO lucky when we found Brianna! Not only has she taken some of our new favorite photos of our cat, she also is an incredibly warm and professional pet sitter. She came with a list of questions about our girl to ensure we were all on the same page, and we appreciated her thoroughness and attention to detail. We can just tell that our cat loved her time with Brianna, and it was such a relief to have someone so dedicated take care of Tess while we were out of town.”
About: I've been caring for cats since I was 10 years old. My pet sitting journey actually began with my neighbor's cat, who took an instant liking to me and became my very first client. These days, I share my home with two chaos gremlins of my own, and cats remain one of my greatest passions in life.
“Ria took excellent care of my cat, she brought him a toy and treats, kept the litter box extremely clean, and even watched him over Christmas. He looked so happy in all the photos she shared. I highly recommend her!”
“Excellent service Fantastic with the cats lots of attention! They usually hide from strangers but they come out when Meredith check in . They truly like her. Thank you sooo much Meredith for taking good care of my cats. I feel relaxed and confident they are in good hands!”
About: Hi! My name is Mack, and I’m a chemist in the RTP area with a lifelong love of critters! I grew up caring for cats and dogs and love nothing more than spoiling and pampering them. I have experience caring for cats of all personalities and ages, including senior cats with medical needs. I’m also experienced with fish and other aquatic critters, as well as birds! I understand that every pet has their own unique routine, personality, and needs, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I especially enjoy getting to know each cat’s individual personality and am comfortable reading their body language and respecting their boundaries. Whether your cat is looking for cuddles, playtime, or simply some quiet companionship from across the room, I’m happy to meet them where they are! I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care while also taking care of their litter box, food, water, medications, and any other needs they may have. My goal is to make sure your cat feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
About: Although I do not have any cats of my own just yet, I have almost ten years of experience caring for the cats of my family, friends, and neighbors. I have taken care of kittens, adult, and senior cats alike. I am also good at handling any specific food or care requests!
About: I am a cat person, plain and simple. I grew up with cats and currently have my own tabby named Walter who is the love of my life. I have over a decade of experience caring for cats at varying life stages and with different needs, detailed below: Shy cats: I volunteer with the Goathouse Refuge, a cage-free cat shelter in Pittsboro. During this time, I have worked with the full spectrum of personalities—from feral and extremely shy cats to those who are just beginning to trust humans. Because of this work, I know how to move at a pet’s pace to build trust. Kittens: I have experience fostering kittens from the Goathouse Refuge until they are ready to be adopted. Through this work I am comfortable providing round-the-clock care, specific feeding routines, and frequent check-ins with you about how your cat is doing. Senior care & diabetes: Over the last decade, I have often cared for an elderly diabetic cat named Max, providing daily insulin injections and maintaining a strict feeding schedule. I am comfortable providing medication to your cats -- whether using pill-pockets or injections. I also love gentle playtime with senior cats and can provide as many snuggles as they need/want.

“Amazing experience with Rashi. My Golden was more anxious than anticipated following a long car trip and move, and Rashi and her husband took special care and attention to make her begin to relax during her daytime stay. They kept me updated throughout what was a trying day for us both! I could not have asked for more.”
“Cynthia is really nice, honest, and super confident with dogs. She made it really easy to get started on a good doggy day care schedule and takes amazing care of my dogs.”
About: Hi! I'm a full time stay at home mom of two kids and a pet parent of two furry family members, Togo (our beloved dog) and Ninja our cat. Animals are a huge part of our everyday life and I know how important it is to find someone reliable and caring to look after your pet because I want the same level of care for my own. I've always loved animals and caring for them has naturally become part of my everyday life. Along with several years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, I volunteer with local dog shelters where I've successfully completed different training programs in dog behavior, safe handling and basic obedience. I'm comfortable working with dogs of all sizes including rescue dogs who may need extra patience and love. Since I'm home full time your pet gets lots of attention throughout the day, frequently potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of love. I stick closely to routines, follow your instructions and pay attention to body language so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I love sending photos updates and messages so you can see how things are going while you're away. My goal is simple: give your pet loving, reliable care and treat them like part of our family. I'm currently a stay home mom of two kids (10 and 13) and our two furry best friends Togo and Ninja. I'll have plenty of time to spend with your pets and give them the attention they need. I have a big fenced yard and a gentle, funny and loving dog, Togo and our cat Ninja who likes to sleep all day long!
“Adrian is the best! He is super communicative and sends lots of pictures of your fur baby throughout the day so you can see what they’re up to! My dog has separation anxiety and requires extra care, and Adrian was super attentive, making sure that she was comfortable and happy all day long. We will definitely be back!”
“Shannon did an incredible job taking care of our pup, Theo, for multiple daycare stays. She kept me updated with how he was adjusting + the best pictures/videos, shared homemade treats, and took him on regular walks. I appreciated that she works from home and could quickly tell she’s a natural dog person who just gets it. Not to mention her home is a dog’s paradise with a large fenced in backyard, gated front porch away from a main road, and the sweetest easy-going dogs of her own that welcomed Theo with open paws. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook with Shannon & would whole heartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. I truly felt like she treated Theo as her own 🩵”
“Heather was able to accept my request for day care for my dog very quickly or last minute. My pup was happy and tired at the end of the day. I would recommend going to heather for day care!”
“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.”
“Amanda has been a blessing. I am new to the area and have travel hour and work hours issues that she has graciously accommodated. My pup is also a Cushings and she follows his eating protocol. If you’re in need of a sitter immediately she is very reliable. Thank you Amanda!”
“Ashley took care of our Dobby in the most amazing way we could ever imagine. She understood what’s need for the pup beforehand , and was very informed. She kept us informed on how he is doing without even us having to ask for it. She even helped us to load and unload Dobby’s things in the car. She was amazing! I highly highly recommended her and I am so confident that she would take care of any dog like her own as she loves doing it.”
“Yesel was wonderful! Our dog had a great time with her and her sweet dog Ripley. She was also super flexible and understanding with coordinating pick-up and drop-off plans when we ran into some scheduling issues with our house sitter. It was clear that she was experienced and comfortable with dogs and caring for them. We will definitely contact her again!”
“This was a last minute book and we couldn’t be more pleased. Sarah was great communicating with me since my schedule changed after booking and Cotde was so well taken care of. We will definitely use them again.”
“I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Scamper received! Scamper was comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. Thank you for being so wonderful!”
About: I have taken care of my family's pets for 26 years. I just recently lost my dog and am looking to meet new furry friends and help families in need of pet-setting. I have taken care of many neighbors, friends and families' pets, but would love to spend much more time getting to know your beloved pets. I just retired as a Physical Education teacher and coach after 44 years of service to young people, therefore I am ready to dog walk, pet sit and board your furry family pets. I am home every day and have a lot of free time to spend with your pets! I love to spend time outdoors, so your pet would be extremely happy when the weather is nice. I live in a two story home in a very pet friendly neighborhood. The streets are not busy, making dog-walking very safe and easy. I have almost two acres of land...perfect for running around and playing! I look forward to being with your furry friends full time! I retired as a teacher/coach for 44 years and my husband works from home M-F. We are available to give your pups plenty of attention. I treat every clients pet as if they are my own. I give plenty of belly rubs, let them sit with me on furniture and I have a guest suite with a lower bed that I sleep with pets if they wish. They have run of my home. If a parent wants them to sleep in a bed or crate, I honor that as well. We love having pets since we lost our family pet.

“Tina took wonderful care of our dog, Dante. She is incredibly attentive and always seemed to be one step ahead of us with thoughtful ideas and suggestions to make sure he was happy and comfortable. After returning from a two-week trip, we noticed something that had never happened before—Dante, who is normally a very anxious dog, was calm, relaxed, and emotionally settled. That alone speaks volumes about the love, patience, and care Tina gave him. Being away from home for such a long time was much easier because we knew Dante was in the best hands. Thank you, Tina, for treating him with so much love, kindness, and responsibility. We are truly grateful and would trust you with Dante again without hesitation.”

“Alexandra was amazing! She responded quickly to our request, communication was great the entire time, and she even added an extra day for us when we needed a little more help. I loved the pictures and little notes she left for us after each walk too!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 12 years and have experience with both dogs and cats of different ages, personalities, and needs as well as turtles, hamsters and birds. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to the little details that help pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to follow each pet’s established routine, from feeding and exercise to playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. I also have extensive experience caring for senior and special-needs pets, which has taught me to be especially observant of changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall well-being. I treat every pet with the same level of care and attention I would want for my own. I am open to caring for other pets as well including reptiles, rodents, birds etc! ❤️ I’m currently in my last year of nursing school, so my schedule varies throughout the week, but I plan my availability carefully and only accept bookings I know I can reliably accommodate. I have flexibility for drop-in visits on many days and will communicate clearly about my availability before booking. When possible, I’m happy to coordinate visits around your pet’s usual feeding, medication, potty, and care routine. I care for every pet as if they were my own and take the responsibility of being trusted in someone’s home seriously. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions and do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean and comfortable environment, and plenty of attention based on their individual needs. I’m very observant and will communicate promptly if I notice anything unusual with your pet’s behavior or well-being. I’ll also provide photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I've been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, and over the years, friends and neighbors have trusted me with the special care of their beloved pets. For over a year, I worked in a lab-like setting providing daily care to a wide variety of exotic animals, including reptiles, amphibians, small mammals and birds. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning, and general husbandry for each species. I also have experience caring for senior animals, including administering medication and performing nail trims, so I'm comfortable with pets who need a little extra attention and care. I currently work part-time and am finishing up my Associate's degree, which gives me a good amount of flexibility during the week to care for your fur babies. On days I work an 8-hour shift, there may be a slightly longer gap between potty breaks, but I always plan ahead and communicate clearly so you know exactly what to expect. Providing consistent, quality care for your animals is a top priority for me, no matter my schedule. When I care for your pets in their own environment, I bring nothing but comfort and love. I give excellent cuddles and scritches, and genuinely enjoy enriching their day with play. I know when to be calm and reassuring, and when to be playful and energetic, adapting to match each pet's unique personality. Every animal I care for receives quality, individualized attention tailored to exactly what they need. Above all, you can count on me to be reliable and consistent, every single time.

I am currently working part-time and attending classes on Tuesday and Thursday, but I am available for nighttime check ins on those days.

About: I love dogs! I've had medium to large breed dogs throughout my life and would like to start walking dogs as a side gig. Walking dogs within neighborhoods or trails would be my specialty. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust to take excellent care of your pet. I am very competent and will take excellent care of your furry friend. I will communicate with you as you would like- photos, just a touch base text whatever you prefer! I currently have plenty of time during the day to walk and play with pups! Morning, lunch breaks or afternoons are best options for me. Leashed walks in neighborhoods or trails. Can walk multiple dogs if needed at the same time. Short car rides to dog parks would be possible.
“Alessandra is great dog walker. She understands my dog very well and takes the time to give him extra love and not just walk him. The updates are very thorough and she communicates so well with everything that’s going on. I’m really glad that I was able to find a really trustworthy and patient person like Alessandra.”
About: Hi, I’m Sierra. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! 🐾 I’m based in Chapel Hill and provide services throughout the Triangle. I currently work with University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My schedule is very flexible and often remote, which allows me to spend extended time in your home for house sitting or provide multiple drop-in visits each day, whatever best fits your pet’s needs. I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds and truly love animals. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and those with special needs. I began volunteering at animal shelters in my early teens and continued pet sitting for neighbors throughout high school and college. Growing up, I was always surrounded by animals—cats and dogs, along with hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and even goats—so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. Currently, I share my home with three cats: my 16-year-old Maine Coon mix, Leo, and two rescue girls, Indigo and Periwinkle. While I don’t have a dog of my own yet, my family has four, and I plan to adopt one in the future. I’m experienced with administering medications (including insulin), as well as providing baths, light grooming, enrichment, and dog park visits. I’m also happy to help with household tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. My goal is to care for your pets just as you would. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and any special needs so I can provide consistent, loving, and attentive care. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I look forward to caring for your furry family members! 🐶🐱💛 My current role allows me to be able to work remotely so my routine can be very flexible depending on your preferences and pet needs! I’d care for your pets in your home as I’d care for my own pets at home, with all the snuggles, treats and playtime they need!
“Lisa and Jeff were great! They came to meet Finn and Bennett before they would be walking them. Got down on the floor and greeted Each of them. Finn has severe food allergies and they were very careful to ask questions and to only give provided treats. They were very attentive, and brought the boys inside and played ball when they didn’t want to walk. Will definitely be using Lisa and Jeff again and would highly recommend them to others!!”

“Cathy took on our quirky, energetic boy with optimism and open arms. She patiently took notes on all his behavioral quirks and was happy to accommodate his need for longer walks. This was our first time boarding him, and he seemed to thrive at Cathy’s and enjoy tons of snuggles and pets. It was so nice to feel so at ease about him while we were traveling and we highly recommend Cathy!!”
“Emily and William are GREAT sitters. Copper had the best time with them. They had a couple of other dogs while he was there and he made new friends with one of them. We got daily pictures and updates while he was with them. We will be using them again in the future!”
“Agus was very tuned into my older dog’s needs. She had not stayed away from our house in a long time, and she came home happy and in great shape. Harry Potter was a sweet buddy for her.”
“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!”
“Ashley’s family made Minnow feel right at home! She provides an excellent space for care, play, and rest - our pup was hesitant to leave! Ashley was also incredibly flexible with a last-minute injury changing our dog’s routine and provided everything she needed to stay comfortable.”
“Amy and John took great care of Ziggy. They sent photos and updates daily and it looked like Ziggy was living his best life at a 5 star retreat, making new friends and keeping busy.”
“Gregg always takes such good care of our dog, Lula. He truly cares for his dogs and gives detailed and thoughtful updates. Our dog gets SO excited when we tell her it’s time time to go to Oliver’s house!!”
“Ashleigh and Jason were amazing! My sweet Izzy was taken into their home like a member of their own family. It was her first stay with them and they made me feel at ease providing updates and sending pictures regularly. When I picked her up I could tell immediately that she was happy and so well loved and taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend Ashleigh and Jason, Izzy will be back with them in July for our next vacation!”
About: Hello! I've pet sat for multiple years now and would love to help you out! From new born puppies to elderly dogs I've done it all. Dogs, cats, chickens, and even bearded dragons, I gotchu! I'm a student at UNC Chapel Hill and can handle any needs and wants to need from me! Hope to sit for you very soon! I am available in the morning before class that begins around 10am and all the time afterwards around 1:30pm. On weekends I am available all day! I am fully able to complete anything the owner needs from me! Walks, medication, play time, staying over some nights, I'm your girl! I can usually stay for some hours each time I need to drop by and of course spend nights if needed!

“Amanda was wonderful to my girl. She treated her like one of the family and my Zorra played with her dogs and she has a nice fenced in area to play. She crated her at night and met all her needs. Amanda was very flexible with my crazy schedule and was also very knowledgeable about dogs. Will book again. Higher 5 star recommend.”

“I wanna say thank you to Lauren she was really sweet. She was really nice. she took care of my dog really well. She had a great time beginning. She was shy but after that, she had a fun time. I’m so happy for her. I can see my dog. She had a great time she made Friend she slept. I will say Lauren is the best pet-sitter. And hopefully during the future, I wouldn’t love for her taking care of my dog again.”
