“Rhianna was so amazing 5 stars are not enough. My fur baby Deuce is very particular and has allergies and a strict diet. Rhianna not only followed Deuce’s routine she provided the love and care he would receive at home. We were visiting. Danville and needed a sitter at the last minute to enjoy a family reunion and Rhianna was a God sent. She was very thorough, professional, warm, and welcoming. She sent multiple pictures and videos the entire time and I never had to reach out to her to ask about Deuce. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody in the Danville area and when we return we will use her services again.”

“This was our first experience with Cheyenne. She & her family are lovely people. They have an amazing fenced in backyard that our dogs thoroughly enjoyed. They were understanding and provided the dog bowls that I forgot to provide for our dogs thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely ask them to care for our pets the next time we have to be out of town.”

I have a fenced in backyard. I live on a back road kinda off the road. I have a small Shih Tzu but he can be kept away safely. I can keep all dogs separated by room crate or fence. I am CPR experienced for dogs. And I am 20 minutes away from an emergency vet an 15 minutes from a regular vet. I would do anything to keep a dog safe because I do not want to see anyone sad or hurt.

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: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.

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: My childhood was filled of all kinds of pets and pups. My whole life I've always had at least 3 fury babies in my life. I was intrigued by how intelligent our pets are so I began to work with them. I'm very good with all kinds of training from pups, teens, to our grandparent's. I've trained dogs for a couple of friends as well as my grandma's farm dogs ( Great Pyrenees). Today I have four babies and they are all well trained. I have four large dogs that I take care of everyday. Once a day I take my dogs to the park for walks. we go on, hikes, swims, and we go to pet friendly areas for people connections. I would love to bring your loved one along with me. I have a perimeter collar for my hound dog and leashes with harnesses for my other three. I am very alert around my dogs . They are just like children you have to keep a close eye one them. My dogs are also inside dogs. I would treat ur dog like one of my own. Your baby is safe in my care.

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.

Warning: You may come home to your dog wanting to go home with me. I work remote so my schedule is wide open as far as availability is concerned.. If that changes I will communicate it. If I am with your dogs they are my first priority. I am laid back and very flexible. I take the care of your best friend very serious. I try to keep your dog on the same schedule that you keep them on, although they may get longer walks and more belly and shoulder rubs with me.

About: Hi, my name is Megan and I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as i can remember. I’ve had pets since I was born, I love cats, dogs, chickens, all animals. I just love taking care of them and getting to know all of their individual personalities! I do foster for the animal shelter when needed, usually animals that need a little extra support until they can be adopted. I really enjoy that, it just makes me feel like I’m making a difference in the world, no matter how small it may be. I do volunteer work for them as well. Whether you’re going on vacation or you need someone for work, I’m your person! I’ll be there and I’ll make sure your pets are well taken care of! You can ask anyone, I promise they will be loved and cared for perfectly. I treat any pet like my own. Thanks so much for checking out my profile, hope to hear from you! Also, be sure to use my code MEGAND63708 for $20 off your first booking! I loveeee animals so no worries about your pet not getting enough attention or play time, they’ll get so much love!! I also send pictures (probably too many lol) but I know you miss your babies and I want to put your mind at ease as much as possible! I can take care of your pet at my house, we have a big fenced in yard way out off the road too so no issues with being too close to the road and a lot of privacy too. I can also come to you for drop ins, I’m very flexible! We’ll make it work! Just let me know what works for you!

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.

“Rhianna was so amazing 5 stars are not enough. My fur baby Deuce is very particular and has allergies and a strict diet. Rhianna not only followed Deuce’s routine she provided the love and care he would receive at home. We were visiting. Danville and needed a sitter at the last minute to enjoy a family reunion and Rhianna was a God sent. She was very thorough, professional, warm, and welcoming. She sent multiple pictures and videos the entire time and I never had to reach out to her to ask about Deuce. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody in the Danville area and when we return we will use her services again.”

I will treat them just like they are mine, and mine are spoiled to a core. All dogs are special and deserve to know they are loved.

“This was our first experience with Cheyenne. She & her family are lovely people. They have an amazing fenced in backyard that our dogs thoroughly enjoyed. They were understanding and provided the dog bowls that I forgot to provide for our dogs thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely ask them to care for our pets the next time we have to be out of town.”

I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping your dog comfortable and happy while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and well cared for! 🐶❤️ I go to school from 8am to 1:15pm to which is when I am not available, anything after that time i will be available, And happy to help! I have a fenced in backyard. I live on a back road kinda off the road. I have a small Shih Tzu but he can be kept away safely. I can keep all dogs separated by room crate or fence. I am CPR experienced for dogs. And I am 20 minutes away from an emergency vet an 15 minutes from a regular vet. I would do anything to keep a dog safe because I do not want to see anyone sad or hurt.

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: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was young. They always bring me joy! I have energy, love, and patience for each puppy:) I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time with your sweet fur baby! I’m available for boarding on weekends and walks in the middle of the week. I have a large outdoor pen with some yard but they are allowed indoors. I have two very sweet dogs to keep yours company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

About: Animals have always been a central part of my life. As a pet owner myself, I understand that our pets are family members, not just animals. My personal dogs receive the same love, attention, and care that I would want for any pet entrusted to me. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have more than 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including owning and operating a nonprofit animal rescue for five years. Through my rescue work, I cared for hundreds of dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, special-needs pets, and dogs recovering from illness or surgery. I am experienced with administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and recognizing when a pet may need extra attention or veterinary care. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will care for them as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Because I spend a significant amount of time at home, your pet will receive plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and potty breaks throughout the day. I understand the importance of maintaining routines and will work with you to ensure your pet’s schedule, feeding times, medications, and preferences are followed closely. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can provide the level of care and attention they need. Safety is always my top priority. My experience running an animal rescue taught me how to properly introduce dogs, recognize signs of stress, manage different personalities, and provide a safe environment for pets with varying needs. I have a securely fenced yard and closely supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate medications, special feeding instructions, crate training, and senior pet care.
