Charity’s home is nice and her yard is very large. The fenced area is extremely spacious and my dogs loved exploring it. They seemed to really enjoy being at her home.

This was our first time using this service and it truly exceeded my expectations. Tori & Zachari were truly wonderful. They were very thoughtful in scheduling a meet and greet with our two dogs to ensure everything would go smoothly during their stay. During the meet and greet they were very mindful of making it a relaxed experience for all and by the time I dropped my dogs off for the visit I could tell they would be in great hands. During their stay, Tori and Zachary were responsive, ensured to give updates, and continued to show how thoughtful they were with their care. We got plenty of pictures showing what an amazing time our doggies had. Our dogs looked happy and relaxed when we picked them up. We will be using Tori and Zachary again for sure!

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. My friends, neighbors, and my family would rely on me to check on them. I would play with them, feed them, walk them, and sometimes if they have injuries I would change them and keep an eye on them while they were in my care. I'm currently not working at this moment. Im available from 9-5 during the weekdays but on the weekends I can do a couple hours if needed. I prefer the weekdays to be at the client's house and the weekends can be at my house because I have my kiddos. They love animals like they run with them and play fetch as well.

About: My experience is rooted in the continuous, loving care of my family's three dogs, meaning I am intimately familiar with detailed daily routines and unique care requirements. I am comfortable and confident handling dogs from a petite 9 lbs up to a grand 110 lbs, ensuring every pet receives safe, personalized, and attentive care. As a full-time student who studies primarily from home, I offer truly exceptional availability and supervision. Unlike many sitters who work outside the home, I am almost always present to ensure your pet gets continuous companionship, scheduled walks, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. Safety and trust are my highest priorities. When caring for your pet in my home, they gain access to a truly unique and stimulating environment: 11.5 acres of mostly forested property. They can safely explore and play in my large, securely fenced yard, and enjoy supervised adventures along the numerous private wooded trails, offering the perfect blend of natural enrichment and peace of mind.

Makayley did a great job. We could not have asked for better service. I think our puppy would go home with Makayley if she would let him. She sent us pictures every day with briefings on how our puppy was doing. He missed us for the first couple of days, but then he seemed to accept Makayley as his temporary master. I think we missed him more than he missed us!. Great job!

About: I grew up on a working farm, so I've cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. My family and I bred, raised, and sold labrador puppies for many years. Neighbors and friends have also relied on me to feed, walk, and house sit their pets. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is flexible allowing me to cater to your timeline. I prefer a week in advance notice, but if you're in need of last-minute care please reach out, I'd love to try and help. I live in a very rural area, perfect for walks and outdoor play with your pet! I have a fenced yard, pet-friendly indoor space, and crates for your fur baby if needed. *Please note* I do have a toddler, so if your pet is not child-friendly, please notify me in advance.

Raeann was great! She took great care of my two cats while I was away for a long weekend. Sent pics and updates, gave one of my boys his injectable medication each day, and gave them some extra loving on top of it too! Even vacuumed before I got home! It was wonderful peace of mind knowing they were well taken care of and would definitely book again!

This was the longest I’ve ever left my cat, Jack, and I honestly could not have asked for a better sitter. Jack is extremely shy and nervous around new people, so I was very anxious about leaving him, but Nicholas was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding with him from the start. Within just a few days, Jack completely warmed up to him, which honestly says everything. I received beautiful daily pictures and videos, and it was so reassuring seeing how comfortable, happy, and loved Jack was while I was away. Because of that, I was truly able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing he was in such great hands. I came home to a very happy cat, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention Jack received. I would absolutely recommend Nicholas to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter.

About: I’ve had/been around many different types of dogs my entire life. My family would always want me to come over and train/watch theirs animals for them like I was the go to person for anybody who got a new pet. I also use to volunteer at a boarding company to help feed/walk the dogs. I currently do doordash so I can pretty much fit any request in to my schedule. The most amount of time I would be away would probably be around 5-6 hours. I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I know how important routines are, so I make sure pets are fed on time, get plenty of attention, and feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I’m patient, responsible, and good at picking up on what each pet needs, whether that’s playtime, walks, or just some extra cuddles. I also like to keep owners updated so they can relax knowing their pet is happy and well taken care of.

About: I have worked with animals since I could walk. My mother owned a doggy daycare/boarding facility for the majority of my life and I have worked there since the beginning. I have worked hands-on with all sorts of pets and am prepared and accustomed to aiding other people's animals while they're away from their humans. I am currently working Monday - Thursday but am available all day Friday and the weekends! If your animal only needs a morning and evening check in during the week however, then that works for me! I care for each animal as if they are my own, giving them all the love, support, and care that my own animals get. If there are any specific needs or requests, then I am more than willing to implement them into my care as well.

I’ve always had a strong love for pets, and I’m very comfortable working with dogs, cats, and other small animals.

I take detailed notes on your pet's daily schedule and follow it closely; Consistency helps them feel safe and at home, even when you're away. I'm patient, attentive, and handle every animal with care. Your pet won't just be watched; they'll be genuinely looked after.

About: I have always had a great love for animals. Since I was a child with my first rabbit, I have helped care for family, friends and neighbors pets. Through the years I have had several dogs and cats. I currently own a farm with donkeys, cows, pigs and chickens. Here at the daycare, I have my own dogs, guiena pigs, hedgehogs, chinchilla and a turtle. I left the world of people. After caring for animals as a passion, I decided that I wanted to make a career out of it. I left the world of customer service so that I could focus on spending all of my time doing daycare and Boarding. My facility is open Monday thru Friday from 7am to 6pm. During those hours we operate daycare, intake and release for boarding and grooming. After hours we are here for feeding, walking, playing. I own and operate a boarding and daycare center for pets. I can care for and board any size animal from a goldfish to a horse. I live on site so your pets are looked after 24 hours a day. We have common areas where pets can interact if you wish, as well as private kennels. All pets are walked atleast 5 times per day in our fenced in back yard on or off leash. They have plenty of outdoor playtime when the weather permits. All areas of the building, including kennels are climate controlled. We also provide grooming services if you are intrested in having your et groomed during their stay. We provide food but you may also bring your own as well. We will feed on your schedule.

About: I have raised many different types of dogs for 15+ years. For the last 5 years, I have housed many different animals in need. I have trained puppies, as well as nervous, and abused dogs. I make sure my home is a very welcome environment for animals of all kinds. Like my husband likes to say, I want a petting zoo in life. I currently work part-time in a pawn shop and full time mom to an adorable little toddler. We love being able to be around and care for animals as much as we can. I go on holidays maybe once or twice a year so I’m always around willing to help train or even just be a companion to your furry friend while you’re away I have an open yard with plenty of space to run around. I also have crates within the house just in case they need to be crated too. I have 3 adult dogs that roam free and are very friendly, as well as 3 puppies, and a 2 cats inside my house as well too. But it’s very rare my cats will come out during the day if I’m housing a dog inside.

Presently, I have four rescue cats, two classroom guinea pigs, and four dogs, one of which is a rescue. I volunteer with my country's animal shelter, and I have fostered and saved many animals. My love for critters is endless. I am a teacher, so teachers do not work in the summer. However, I do work teaching summer school and a camp in June. I can work evenings and remain overnight. I have the entire month of July off. My children are grown, so my schedule is flexible. I can provide references. I live in a secluded area, so when I am home, they have free range. My dogs are leash trained. During the day when I am home, they remain in a crate. I live six minutes from work, so they arent in their crates all day. My oldest daughter lives with me, so when I am away, they are taken care of.

About: My love of pet care began at age 14 when I got my 1st job working with a vet. I bicycled each morning at 6 am before school to clean cages. My love and determination has not waned over the years and I have continued, off and on, to work with vets and offer in home pet care to a diverse group of clients from birds to wolfhounds for the last 30+ years.. I am looking forward to meeting your fur family and discussing how I might provide the best care for your loved ones in your absence. As a fellow user of this service, I understand the desire for an experienced, trust worthy, capable, level headed care giver with a degree of common sense. My aim is to provide the same level of care that I would expect my family to receive as well. Your sense of confidence in my abilities to care for your family is my #1 priority. I bi-locate between Greensboro and Danville and am available in both locations and between. I look forward to speaking with you! At the moment, in home pet care is my first priority and upon approval, I can be available 7 days per week as well as on an extended basis, upon review and acceptance by both parties for in your home pet care and walking duties as well as drop-in visits. I have found most pets prefer to be in their own homes and around familiar sights and sounds to ease their transition from their primary caregiver to me. For this reason, I highly recommend in home pet care. I am willing to discuss pet care in my home on a case by case basis.

About: I have had a variety of animals my whole life! I absolutely love being around animals and spending time with them. I have taken care of dogs of all ages, all the way from newborn to seniors! I am available on weekdays only. I do work a breakfast shift (5am-11am) Wednesday to Saturday. However, I am available the rest of the day! I will have plenty of time to tend to your animals and take care of their needs. I have a very large unfenced yard that would be great for leashed activities like walking and going potty. I also have a fenced area that’s perfect for some unleashed outdoor time. I would keep any pets inside most of the time to ensure safety while I am with them. I do have a crate that I could keep your pet in while I am at work (if your baby is crate trained). All animals are allowed to roam the house and sleep in the bed if that’s allowed at home!

About: I have worked with animals since I could walk. My mother owned a doggy daycare/boarding facility for the majority of my life and I have worked there since the beginning. I have worked hands-on with all sorts of pets and am prepared and accustomed to aiding other people's animals while they're away from their humans. I am currently working Monday - Thursday but am available all day Friday and the weekends! If your animal only needs a morning and evening check in during the week however, then that works for me! I care for each animal as if they are my own, giving them all the love, support, and care that my own animals get. If there are any specific needs or requests, then I am more than willing to implement them into my care as well.

This was our first time using this service and it truly exceeded my expectations. Tori & Zachari were truly wonderful. They were very thoughtful in scheduling a meet and greet with our two dogs to ensure everything would go smoothly during their stay. During the meet and greet they were very mindful of making it a relaxed experience for all and by the time I dropped my dogs off for the visit I could tell they would be in great hands. During their stay, Tori and Zachary were responsive, ensured to give updates, and continued to show how thoughtful they were with their care. We got plenty of pictures showing what an amazing time our doggies had. Our dogs looked happy and relaxed when we picked them up. We will be using Tori and Zachary again for sure!

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. My friends, neighbors, and my family would rely on me to check on them. I would play with them, feed them, walk them, and sometimes if they have injuries I would change them and keep an eye on them while they were in my care. I'm currently not working at this moment. Im available from 9-5 during the weekdays but on the weekends I can do a couple hours if needed. I prefer the weekdays to be at the client's house and the weekends can be at my house because I have my kiddos. They love animals like they run with them and play fetch as well.

About: My experience is rooted in the continuous, loving care of my family's three dogs, meaning I am intimately familiar with detailed daily routines and unique care requirements. I am comfortable and confident handling dogs from a petite 9 lbs up to a grand 110 lbs, ensuring every pet receives safe, personalized, and attentive care. As a full-time student who studies primarily from home, I offer truly exceptional availability and supervision. Unlike many sitters who work outside the home, I am almost always present to ensure your pet gets continuous companionship, scheduled walks, and frequent potty breaks throughout the day. Safety and trust are my highest priorities. When caring for your pet in my home, they gain access to a truly unique and stimulating environment: 11.5 acres of mostly forested property. They can safely explore and play in my large, securely fenced yard, and enjoy supervised adventures along the numerous private wooded trails, offering the perfect blend of natural enrichment and peace of mind.
