“Kourtney went above and beyond for our Lady. Lady lost a tooth while she was with her and she put the tooth in a baggie for us to keep and gave her a tooth fairy gift. She was so good with Lady. She sent pictures and updates to us daily and our Lady was a happy girl when we picked her up. Thank you so much Kourtney!”

We were running out of town and forgot a couple things but they were so accommodating. The boys always come back healthy and well care for. We are already booking our next trip out of town and will use them again :)”

“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”
“Excellent care. Fran went above and beyond caring for our dog. He had tummie issues while we were gone and Fran even cooked special food for him and fixed the problem. Her communication was very informative the entire time. Fran even went to our vet for ear drops. Wow! We could not have found a better sitter than her. A real GEM!!!!”

I treat every animal in my care like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.” “Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, not just a job, but something I truly love. Living in the Appalachian mountains has taught me the value of a calm, grounded lifestyle, and I bring that same peaceful energy into the care I provide. I treat every pet like family and pay close attention to their unique personality and needs, whether they’re playful, shy, elderly, or needing extra comfort while you’re away. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, loved, and at home in my care.” “I care for every pet with the same attentiveness and love that I give my own children. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I work hard to create a calm, dependable environment where pets feel secure and cared for.
“Melissa is a gem! She goes out of her way to accommodate you. We were to go to her house and pick up our pup this morning but at 7:30am she text me that she was going to drop of a dog in our area and if we wanted she could meet us with our pup too and save us a 30 minute drive to Her house. That was great as we only had to drive 5 minutes to meet her. She is a great sitter and our pup loves sleeping with her teen son!”

Thank you so much jacades for taking such great care of my boy!”

About: I connect with animals of all kinds! I've had several dogs & cats, rabbits, pigs, turkeys, snakes, chickens, lizards, and a chinchilla. My love for animals is limitless & my goal is to improve the life of every animal I can reach. I am currently taking courses online to sharpen my skills pertaining to grooming, learning different breeds, training, diet & health. I have acquired many different brushes, supplements, flea combs, scissors and other supplies to keep your pet clean & tidy. I keep lots of treats in my kit including cat treats, cat nip, dog treats, calming pheromone spray & highly digestible bones. I enjoy cooking for pets when I can, making it feel more like going to Grandma's house instead of day care 😉 I am very attentive to moods and behaviors, while also going above and beyond to make sure they feel safe. I have treated sick animals, given medications, assisted in giving injections, and followed food regimens. I've been bitten by several different kinds of animals, so I know how to deal with the not-so-fun parts. I have plenty of energy to walk and play, toys, and my own reliable transportation. I've done extensive research on behaviors and relationships of pets and I'm always learning. I would be happy to write daily reports and/or take pictures, whatever makes you feel at ease. Outside of caring for my own animals, I'm not very busy, so if you need a last minute service, I will likely be available. I can transport animals in my car and also have a female German Shepherd who is fixed and is sweet as can be, if your pup would like a play mate! I'm always looking for new spots to walk & hike, making sure your bestie doesn't get bored ☺️ I strive to work with pet parents to provide high standard, seamless care for every animal & your peace of mind. There is nothing I won't do to ensure the safety & happiness of your pet. Frivolous is not in my vocabulary 🫡 I take care of my animals daily, but have plenty of free time for yours! Morning, afternoon or evening, I'm available for your pet care needs. My pets are well taken care of and honestly a little spoiled 🤭. We have different foods for different cat needs, we don't use cheap food brands in our household. Our dog is walked at least 5 times a week, sometimes more. Each animals gets individual attention and plenty of pets. I make my own treats to give my dog her medicine and also try other pet recipes from time to time. All animals are vaccinated, de-wormed, and get vet check-ins annually.

“Melissa was great. We were traveling with our dog and wanted to bike the Virginia Creeper Trail. Melissa's house was about 20 min from the bike rental shop in Damascus, and it worked out perfectly to drop off our dog for a few hours while we biked. She has a big fenced in the back yard.”

I would recommend her to anyone for walks!”

There is nothing I won't do to ensure the safety & happiness of your pet. Frivolous is not in my vocabulary 🫡 I take care of my animals daily, but have plenty of free time for yours! Morning, afternoon or evening, I'm available for your pet care needs. My pets are well taken care of and honestly a little spoiled 🤭. We have different foods for different cat needs, we don't use cheap food brands in our household. Our dog is walked at least 5 times a week, sometimes more. Each animals gets individual attention and plenty of pets. I make my own treats to give my dog her medicine and also try other pet recipes from time to time. All animals are vaccinated, de-wormed, and get vet check-ins annually.
About: I am currently a dog owner myself to my service dog Daisy! I have had pets my entire life going from dogs all the way to horses! I walk my own dog twice a day! and I would be more than happy to accommodate to any dogs needs whether it is a longer walk or a shorter one! I can do morning walks or middle of the day and even afternoons! How I care for my dog Daisy is by giving a good energy with going on a walk and making her sit before we leave the house and always giving her treats! As well as making sure her water bowl is filled with fresh clean water.
About: I'm a quick learner with a genuine love for animals. I enjoy building strong bonds with pets and understanding their individual needs. My passion for animals drives me to provide attentive, caring, and personalized care, making sure each pet feels safe and loved. I’m eager to learn and always ready to go the extra mile to ensure both pets and owners are happy. I’m currently working a part time job but it won’t stop me from meeting a new friend i have a weird schedule just text me and we can chat about him/her!! Im always open for cuddles ALWAYS !! They will be spoiled as if they are my own I promise. And we have no rules in this house 😎
About: Just like humans, pet’s need exercise and enrichment for their mental and physical well-being. If you don’t have the time or ability to take your dogs out for walks, let me help! I have been in the veterinary field since 2006 and a Licensed Veterinary Technician since 2010. I have experience with all stages of life (puppy/adult/geriatric), medical needs, and behavior. I’m currently working part-time, so I can be flexible to accommodate your schedule. I can either walk in your neighborhood or take your dog to a walking trail. My pets and the pets I care for are a very important part of my life and I connect deeply with animals. I have a reliable vehicle and an excellent driving record and only walk at safe, well-known walking trails (think Creeper Trail, Sugar Hollow). I am sensitive to dog behavior and understand that each animal has unique needs and requirements.
About: I've been an animal lover since I was a child and have always been around animals every moment I could. Unfortunately I could not have pets at my parent's home as a child due to the rental agreement. I'm happy to say that now I am the fur mamma of 3 precious dachshunds and one very sweet and vocal kitty. There's never a dull moment at my house! I have 7 years of dog and cat sitting experience. Several families depend on me to care for their pets while away on vacation. I thoroughly enjoy my time with these fur babies and it is quite evident that they love me in return. I am experienced with bathing, and medication administration as well. I also have several years of experience taking care of and boarding pets for elderly people who need a hand caring for their pets, such as bathing them and taking them to the vet's office for them. I'm currently working part time 3 days a week. I will have plenty of time to spoil your pets. Occasionally I pick up extra days but will avoid picking anything up if I know I'm going to be taking care of your pets. I follow whatever instructions you leave me. I prefer a written note laid out where I can easily refer to it. This is especially helpful to me if you have multiple pets with different routines. I not only complete daily routines with pets, but I also like to spend some quality time playing or snuggling with your pet as I know they are missing you very much while you are away.
About: DISREGARD REVIEW FROM ROBIN! It contains lies which meet the standard for libel. Nothing in her review is true. I did come the night before at her request, but every other remark is untrue. I have two dozen 5-star reviews from this site and others. Where to start? Three dogs with 11 legs, 50+ cats, 2 alpacas, 7 parrots, farm critters— Out of space! What else? And…um…Ack! Estates, hovels, and— Being retired from the rat race, I now sit full-time. That means I’m there 24/7 to give your Fur/Feather/Scale Babies and home love and care The safety of your pets/home are of utmost importance, so a schedule and information list are essential. I prefer arriving early to go over everything. Being retired, sitting pets and homes is my only focus. Actually, available within a four-hundred mile radius, all the way to the coast, the big city, and everywhere in between! I make certain your home and your pets are in the same pristine condition as when I arrived. The pets (who have lips) will be smiling. Of course, they will be even more exciting to see you again. The house would be smiling, if not for that whole lips thing.
About: For the majority of 2020 I was working at an animal sanctuary with more than 60 dogs and 30 cats. My duties included feeding, cleaning, walking the animals. I also maintained their enclosures and of course played with them! I work part time at Hachimi, but would prefer taking care of some doggos. Tuesday and Thursday nights I have class , other than that I have a pretty open schedule. I live by the tweetsie and love to walk my dogs on it. Or they like going out of town for some hiking by the lake or in the mountains ⛰
About: I’ve owned and taken care of my own dogs since I was 10, and I have watched friends and family’s dogs during the summers for the past several years! I am available for house sitting, doggy day care, drop in visits, and dog walks, and I can accommodate your pet’s schedule as needed :) I have a three year old Shetland Sheepdog named Bentley that loves to play. He is potty trained and crate trained. He is allowed on the furniture. Our daily routine is going to potty in the morning, eating breakfast, getting a water cookie treat (ice cube), playing with toys in the living room or in his crate if I am gone, going on a walk in the evenings, and getting dinner with additional potty breaks when needed. I would care for your pet as if it were my own! I am also happy to accommodate personal preferences in the care of your pet.
About: Animals just relax around me. I’ve worked with many pet owners who are apprehensive to leave their pets with anyone due to the pet’s nervous temperaments, and other various quirks, and every single time the animals have surprised their owners by completely settling in with me. I prioritize play, love, and connecting with each individual pet I watch however they specifically need. I’ve looked after animals of all breeds, ages, & temperaments- from anxious & fussy older pets to energetic young puppies. I have experience administering medications to sick animals, hand feeding injured puppies, walking several pets at once, and managing dogs & cats that are a bit wild. I’ve even cared for lizards, turtles, fish, plants (haha), hamsters, birds, & rabbits. Whatever their needs, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, & at home while they’re with me. I am a potter who works from my home studio, and I make my own schedule- so I can generally be flexible and accommodate your pets needs. I love having pets in my home, and breaking away from my studio to get some fresh air and puppy/kitty love too! If I’m working on a big project, it’s nice to have to flexibility to come and go from my studio when possible, or have your pet there with me- but I have worked out all kinds of house sit/drop in/boarding arrangements according to the needs of clients and their pets. Let’s talk! I live in a peaceful home with a large fenced in backyard, and nice quiet streets to walk with your pet as needed. I will follow whatever routines you generally stick to and prefer when working with your animals. Give me all the details of your needs and preferences, boundaries and particulars- no matter what type of sit- so I can be sure you and your pet(s) feel a sense of trust, ease, and predictability.

“Do you want your pets to feel so at home and comfortable that they are upset when they leave? Mark's house is the place to be! Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mark helped us on short notice and was able to provide us peace and reassurance that our babies were cared for! Mark kept our male and female German Shepherds, and they had an absolute blast. Mark sent us multiple photos and videos and kept us very up-to-date on what they were doing throughout their visit. He asked questions about their personalities and needs that showcased his care and attention to detail. With his knowledge and experience with German Shepherds, it really shined in the care he provided them! I would definitely recommend Mark, and especially recommend Mark to people with German Shepherds or working line dogs! We and our babies would love to use Mark again!”

About: “I’ve had dogs as companions since I was a child, and they’ve always been cherished members of my family. I treat every animal in my care like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.” “Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, not just a job, but something I truly love. Living in the Appalachian mountains has taught me the value of a calm, grounded lifestyle, and I bring that same peaceful energy into the care I provide. I treat every pet like family and pay close attention to their unique personality and needs, whether they’re playful, shy, elderly, or needing extra comfort while you’re away. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, loved, and at home in my care.” “I care for every pet with the same attentiveness and love that I give my own children. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I work hard to create a calm, dependable environment where pets feel secure and cared for.
“Melissa is a gem! She goes out of her way to accommodate you. We were to go to her house and pick up our pup this morning but at 7:30am she text me that she was going to drop of a dog in our area and if we wanted she could meet us with our pup too and save us a 30 minute drive to Her house. That was great as we only had to drive 5 minutes to meet her. She is a great sitter and our pup loves sleeping with her teen son!”

It was the first time leaving Lana overnight and Kitty made the whole process really smooth for us. Arriving at her home with the beautiful fenced in yard and peaceful surroundings gave us a great feeling straight away. She gave us time to get Lana settled and listened to our preferences for some house rules during the time there. She went over and above to give us not only updates and photo check ins but she also shared really valuable tips she had noticed in terms of our pup's development and maturing and was actively invested in working on them while Lana was with her. Thank you again!”
