“James is great!, quick response, friendly. He has a large yard for all our sweet furries 🐕🐾🦴 companions to enjoy. Lola said she'd be thrilled to go back spend time there again. Thanks you.”
“Wonderful, wonderful care! Ann is such a loving and caring pet sitter. She is thoughtful of each animal and gives her all! So grateful to have found her, and thankful that my dogs were well cared for during their stay!”
“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.”
“I would give 10 stars if that was possible! Bear was in heaven with Caitlin and her family. He went on long walks every morning, went to the river, road in the car and chased chickens! I was actually concerned that he would not want to come home to us :) I cannot recommend her enough- especially if you have a golden! We will be using her again.”
“I cannot begin to say enough about the care which Lacie provided for our Emma. She is a 16 year-old Havanese and has issues such as being blind and deaf. She also has some severe arthritis. Lacie took excellent care of her needs, took her outside multitudes daily to enjoy the sun and provided us with daily photos of how well she got along.Lacie provided excellent care and Emma and seem to be so happy. I know it was a lot of extra work because of her special needs, but Lacey was fantastic. I highly recommend Lacie!!!”
“Tara was great with Trapper. She was super flexible and easy to work with and sent several pics so we knew he was having fun and being well taken care of. We weren’t sure if he’d be ok playing with her dogs, but they were super sweet and immediately accepted him as part of the group. He had a blast while we were away.”
“Kaitlyn and her family were so wonderful to our dog, Cocoa! They treated her like their own and she was so spoiled staying with them! Kaitlyn sent several photo updates throughout each day! She took Cocoa on multiple daily walks, made sure she ate her food, gave her a new toy, and even sent her home with a new bandana! It was purr-fect!”
About: My first born child is my 9 year old Golden Luna. I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, colors, and personalities. I’d love to help care for yours! I work from home full time and am flexible to be able to check in at your home, go for walks, or have them with me. I have a fenced in yard that is safe for pets and am happy to accommodate any needs you may have. Crates are welcome if needed.
“Pamela was just what we needed for our senior lab. She provided wonderful care for over night boarding. We received frequent communication and the whole process was very smooth. Our pup enjoyed her stay and we would gladly use Pamela again”
“This is our second time leaving our dog with Sylvie and will definitely continue in the future. She took great care of our dog and sent us pictures every day. I would highly recommend her.”
“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!!”
“Emily and her husband did a great job. We take our lab with us almost all the time so it wasn't easy to leave her somewhere for multiple days. Emily was great with accommodating a pre-stay meeting, always really good with communication and coordination, kept us regularly updated and assured that Parker was comfortable, happy, getting plenty of attention and activity, etc.. She was flexible with our pick up and always positive. We would definitely recommend and would definitely have Parker stay again.”
“Another wonderful stay for my kitten with Raquel! She always has so much fun and loves her stays. Raquel sends very regular updates and lots of pictures and takes great care of her. I will continue to use Raquel and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Diane took care of our Seamus while on vacation for a week and she did an amazing job! She sent several photos of him throughout the week which was nice to see him happy. He looked healthier when we picked him up then when we left which was probably due to the many walks they went on. We will definitely be booking her again the next time we need our fur baby watched!”
“Our senior dog, Maggie, loved her stay with Laura and her family. Laura sent us pictures and kept us informed on how Maggie was doing with her. I would definitely use Laura again! Maggie felt like she was on a vacation!”
About: Animals have been a constant in my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I’ve grown up with pets and currently have a cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member. Beyond personal experience, I’ve spent years working on a small farm where I cared for dogs, cats, chickens, and even senior horses with medical needs. That hands-on background taught me how to handle a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and special care routines with patience and confidence. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a calm presence, or someone who’s comfortable with unique care instructions, I’m committed to making them feel safe, happy, and well‑loved while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m a full‑time online master’s student and work part‑time, which means my days are naturally flexible. I’m able to structure my coursework around drop‑ins, walks, and time spent with your pets, rather than the other way around. This allows me to be available throughout the day for check‑ins, exercise, feeding, or just keeping your pet company. If your pet thrives on a predictable routine or needs attention at specific times, I can reliably accommodate that. The best thing I can do for you and your pet is keep them comfortable, consistent, and cared for while you’re away. I always follow the routine you provide, because familiar schedules help pets feel secure. With clear instructions from you, I’m happy to offer attentive playtime, regular walks, timely feedings, and treats as requested. Whether I’m visiting your home or spending extended time with your pet, I focus on creating a calm, safe environment and giving them the attention they’re used to. My goal is for your pet to feel relaxed and well‑loved until you’re back.
“Sara was wonderful with Koda. Sara paid attention to all of Kodas needs. She sent such great pictures of Koda while we were gone and kept in touch. Definitely using her again. Thank you again!”

About: I have been around all types of animals and pets my whole life. I don't mind taking care of any type of pet you may have from babys to seniors, cats of all breeds and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m also good with taking care of other domestic pets, exotic pets and farm animals. I only work part time so I have a lot of extra time to care for animals and enjoy being outdoors walking, biking and hiking. I can also just enjoy sitting on the porch with a cat in my lap and a dog at my feet. I’m not doing in home or boarding at this time and may offer to stay at your house with your pet in the future
“I ended up needing a short-notice, “panic” cat check-in option from Rover before a 10-day trip. Lillie responded and communicated promptly. Her response saved my trip, She did a pre-trip visit to check out my 5 fuzzies, then dealt well with them for several food and water refill and social interaction visits. When I need cat sitting services again, I will be going back to Lillie.”
About: Hey there!! I've been around pets my whole life and absolutely LOVE them. We had a dog (dachshund) growing up as well as other animals like Rabbits and Guinea Pigs! I've had cats and dogs throughout my life as well. My bestie dog was named Sadie (corgi/husky mix) who was 17 when I had to let her go to the rainbow bridge March 2021...it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do 💔 I had her since she was about 1 yr old. She had a pacemaker put in about 2 yrs prior to passing and had a great life but I miss her like crazy. I've been Petsitting a long time but over the passed couple of years it's really helped heal my heart and has truly been a blessing. Most of my clients are from word of mouth over the years but I have this to help others get in touch with me if they need some help! I live in Lake Toxaway but I have jobs anywhere from Highlands, Trillium, Cullowhee, Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Toxaway to Brevard. I mostly stay at my client's homes but I do bring some dogs to my house if it ends up being a better option. I've done puppy care and senior care as well so that doesn't phase me. I also can do medication or treatments needed. If I'm booked up for in home pet care then I can do drop ins 2x a day for cats 🐱 I can possibly offer that for dogs too but they usually need it 3x a day. So that would all depend on my availability. I work part time caretaking properties/cleaning, and childcare so I'm mostly home! When I do need to leave I'm not gone more then 3-6 hrs, depending on the job. I can travel further if I can move jobs around in my area. I'm very flexible and try to make things work if I can! I currently don’t have a fenced in yard but I will walk around my neighborhood and have a decent sized backyard. I treat your babies like they're my own so they get lots of lovin. Sometimes we go to the State Park too! If they like car rides I'll take them to check my mail or little errands.
“She is the best I’ve ever seen and I recommend her to anyone. Now I know where to take Gil when we go to casino. I love visiting this town-Bryson City. It is great. If u want to get anyone to sit or keep ur dog Michelle and Robbie are the best. I feel safe my dog is happy and having a blast.”
“Jesse did a great job first time with Tag, who is an anxious dog. Jesse is professional and friendly. He is very reassuring and took good care of Tag. we will definitely have Jesse take care of Tag again!”

Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire adult life , including senior dogs and puppies . I can administer medicine, and I work from home and can be here most of the time . Prefer not to have dogs larger than 60 pounds in my home overnight and no aggressive breeds . These factors will be considered on a case by case basis . I work from home with a flexible schedule and can meet your animals needs virtually anytime ! I have room to play and would love to care for your animal . I have experience caring for animals of all kinds in my home and will listen to any care instructions . I am home most of the day to care for the animal .
About: As I partner with pet parents, I look forward to welcoming and honoring each pet's spirit and unique needs. Growing up with animals taught me how to truly listen to these sacred beings and notice the subtle ways they communicate. I can promise that I will show up for every animal trusted in my care the way I'd want someone to show up for mine: with patience, presence, and a whole lot of love. I am an artist with the ability to easily move my schedule around. I look forward to walking, boarding, and supporting pet parents with any care needs that arise. I have a fenced in yard and a clean, quiet home. When caring for dogs, I look for opportunities to engage in play as often as possible both to bond with your fur baby and to ensure they are having fun!
“Maggie was very excited to go to Ann’s house. We had a meet and greet the day before. Ann was very prompt getting back to me after my request and communicated very well. She kept us updated with photos and texts. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Jennie was amazing! We were in town to camp and mountain bike and had to make some last minute adjustments due to weather. She was so flexible and accommodating we almost couldn't believe it! We hope to be back and would definitely use Jennie again.”
“We came on vacation here and my dog, Shadow, was miserable because he has separation anxiety issues, so I contacted Amy to see if she could keep him for me during the day so he wouldn’t be alone. It was an amazing experience! She was so good with him and he actually loved going after the first day. Amy was a lifesaver for me, I could relax on my vacation and know Shadow was in good hands. Will definitely be using her again next time we come to town. Thank you so much!”
About: I absolutely love animals, and have had all kinds of pets my entire life. I’ve gained lots of experience with dogs, cats, rodents, birds, reptiles and fish. I had my last dog, Raya for 8 years. I don’t think I’ll be able to get another pet for a long time, so for now I’m very happy taking care of yours as my own. Along with regular dog walking, I also offer overnight housesitting/ extended stays. I’d be happy to provide references from over the years upon request (: My schedule is very flexible, just give me a few days notice if you're looking for overnight care. I'm also available for dogs walks daily! I currently provide drop in, and overnight services in clients homes. And I am committed to not only making your dog feel safe and comfortable, but also providing a fun, enriching environment for them. I have experience with dogs of all temperaments, ages and breeds.
“James took great care of our boy for the day! This was my first time using River for doggy daycare, and it went very smoothly. We received pictures and updates throughout the day which was wonderful to come back to once we got service returning from our hike. Would recommend whether you live here or are visiting the area!”
“Meagan was great and our pups were well taken care of! She worked with us on flexible drop off and pick up times due to the event we were attending. We highly recommend Meagan for your pet needs. Thanks!!”
About: I love all animals and taking care of them is a dream job. I live in the Franklin NC area year around. I was raised with Boxers and have been a dog momma for 10 rescues. I have an open schedule however I have a wedding in June and a cruise in August. I am flexible and can be on call if necessary. My pets are inside animals. I have 8 acres with a fenced area and 2 friendly labs. I never allow my dogs off leash unless they are in the fenced area. My dogs are never left unattended outside the home. My cat is an indoor cat.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. My own dogs, my neighbors have asked me to drop in while they were on vacation, and my parents friends have had me dog and house sit while they were away. I take the time to get to know what the pets need instead of taking a one size fits all approach. I’m available all week, whatever time. I’m not working any other jobs so I’m available whenever pets need it or pet parents want an extra check in or reassurance. I make sure they’re comfortable, whether that’s in a crate or just on a bed, constantly check their food and water, and make sure they’re good and tired before I stop playing with them.
“Kaitlyn is a wonderful dog sitter. She sent pictures that showed Abby in various activities throughout the day. It was obvious that Abby enjoyed her time with Kaitlyn, her dog and daughter. She was extremely flexible on the drop-off and pick-up times. This was our first time to use her and she will be our first choice in future bookings. Thank you, Kaitlyn!!”
“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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Amanda was perfect in every way and was able to accommodate our last minute plans. Mochie has a blast and will be back! Super convenient location and nice environment for dogs. Thanks Amanda”

“Louise is obviously a dog person. I appreciated having a meet and greet before hand. My pup felt immediately comfortable with her and so did I. Louise showed up when she said she would, took time for walks and play and my pup and home were in great shape when i got home. I will definitely use her again when in area.”

“Lillie has been great working with our new dog Archie. She is very patient and gives great updates, which is very helpful when trying to figure out what behaviors we need to work on with him.”
About: I have owned dogs my entire life with many cats in between. I have had the pleasure of sitting dogs and cats all over the country, including house sits in California, Oregon, Washington, and now North Carolina. I have experience with young puppies, as well as elderly dogs with a plethora of health problems; I also have experience with big dogs like German shepherds, Australian shepherds, and Rottweilers, to teacup Pomeranians, spitz, and many more. I have been told I’m very high energy and fun, and the animals I have looked after always seem to pick up on that great energy and can’t wait to hang out. :) I sell vintage clothing, so being self employed allows me to better accommodate to all the needs of the animals. In our own home, our dog Endo is the King. He gets to enjoy long daily walks amidst the beauty of DuPont forest, swims in the lake behind our house, and nightly fresh cooked meals. My services on house sits include obviously feeding and general care of the animals, as well as promptly following specific dietary regimens and health requirements of every animal. I have cared for very old dogs that needed assistance in bowel movements as well as simple motivation for stubborn dogs that don’t like to walk. I have also looked after countless plants and hot tubs, ensuring proper watering and chlorination.
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. They won’t be left alone except for quick errands. 🐾 My home is very dog-friendly with a fully fenced in yard, tons of toys, comfy dog beds, and lots of space to relax. 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. 🐾

“Sarah was great! Very kind and great communication. Loved seeing all the pictures she took of Enzo on his walk. He always looked so happy! Sad she’s leaving the state for a few months but definitely looking forward to working with her again when she returns.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I am a trustworthy retired RN who is looking to spoil your dogs while you are away. I am a non-smoker and very active with walking/hikes and pickleball. I am retired now for 5 years and spend my day actively with hike/bikes/pickleball to name a few activities. I am available most days with proper notice. I do not have a fenced yard but do have a 7-year-old dog named Dori who gets her exercise walking daily. If you pup likes fenced in yards caring for your dog would be better at your home.
