“Courtney & Kameron took great care of Barkley while I was away. He went on lots of walks and enjoyed all the extra attention. Courtney sent lots of pic throughout the weekend. Will definitely use them again!!!”
“Samantha was beyond patient and kind with our young pup! She kept us informed via text and pics during the entire stay, which made us feel at ease. We are excited to have someone we trust to care for her when we go out of town!”
“Sydney was wonderful with both my mini schnauzers. She took care of their every need and gave them lots of love. We have rebooked with her for several more dates and will continue to book with her for boarding in her home.”
“Shannon was wonderful! Her home is a perfect dog palace - very dog friendly with lots of room and a great, fenced backyard! She has nice large areas indoors to be able to separate them as needed. She was super accommodating in setting up a meet n greet prior to Gemma's stay. I think it's always nice to let dogs meet and sniff things out before just dropping them off at a strangers home! Gemma is slow to warm up to other dogs and Shannon allowed her space to do that, which I greatly appreciate. Her own two dogs are very friendly and well behaved - good energy to have when your dog might be nervous in a new place. Highly recommend and we'll definitely be back. Thanks so much, Shannon!!”
“As always, Liz took tremendous care of our Aussie, Stella! I am always at ease knowing she is having a blast at the farm. Our Stella definitely loves the time she gets to spend with Liz <3”
“Holy cow, our dog’s experience with Kurt could not have been better! Kurt kept in amazing touch with us and sent photos of his many adventures with our dog. I would definitely have him as my first choice any time we need care. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!”
“They were able to take my Dog and Cat on short notice and took good care of both. A little out of the way but lots of land in wooded area for you dog to explore.”
About: I am a stay at home Mom and would love to help other pet owners be at ease knowing their pets are being taken care of while you’re at work or out of town. Being at home allows me to be very flexible with the care you need. My family has both a dog and cat at home, so I’m familiar with the care needed for both. I’ve also cared for an elder dog before needing insulin administered. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible to work with your needs! I’m happy to work with you! I have a large un-fenced yard surrounded by woods; supervised time outside only and on a leash unless you and I both are confident in obedience to come when called. I have a small dog at home who prefers a cuddle buddy over a play mate, but she is friendly with most dogs and loves cats! In the event I leave home I prefer crating until I get to know your pup.
“We are so happy we have finally found a caring home for our boys. Emily is so nice and took great care of Jax and Louie. She sent us so many pictures every day so we were able to see them while we were gone. We will definitely take them to Emily again.”
“Nancye is absolutely amazing! She loved and spoiled our Josey as if he was her own. I loved that we had the opportunity to have a meet and greet before we took our trip. She took him on walks. He loves car rides and she took him to get ice cream with her getting him a pup cup. It was our 1st time leaving him with someone new and she sent us pictures and updated all along the way. Nancye has such a love for fur babies and it shows. Would definitely recommend her.”
About: I am an avid animal lover. So when friends, family, and friends of friends have looked for pet sitters they come to me! I have experience with dogs as little as Chihuahuas to as big as Rottweilers and we all know who is more feisty ;) I work during the week but am available for walks after 5pm. I am available for boarding all day on the weekends or during the week if your pets are low-needs during the day! I have a private 3+ acre yard with a kenneled in area if needed. I have crates for my dogs and more than happy to crate yours if needed. I am willing to accommodate most needs/request as long as you are willing to communicate!
“Marah did an amazing job taking care of our fur baby!! She kept us updated and sent pictures daily! She had a very quick response time to our messages as well. We will definitely be using Marah again in the future. We would highly recommend her.”
“Linda and David were absolutely wonderful to my Loki. Between the thorough updates and the welcoming environment they provide for their clients, I wasn’t worried at all while we were away.”
About: I've watched dogs and cats with all different personalities and needs (i.e. blind, diabetic, anxious, etc.). I believe in understanding a pet's needs from the perspective of the pet and responding with compassion. I work full time, but can usually work from home if needed. I will talk with you before we commit to pet sitting to ensure my schedule works for your needs (if that's getting off early, working from home every day during the time of the sitting, going home over lunch for a walk, etc). I have no fur babies (or kids) of my own, so your babies will get my undivided attention and I will shower them with all the love I wish I could give to my own fur baby if I had one. (Know I recognize that love looks different for different critters - for some it may mean keeping a respectful distance!)
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have cared for animals since I was young. Growing up with dogs taught me how important patience, consistency, and affection are in helping pets feel safe and comfortable. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your pet receives the same love and attention I’d give my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that makes it easy to fit pet care into my day. I’m fully available on Fridays, and I have availability before and after classes throughout the week, allowing me to provide dependable, attentive care whenever your pet needs it. I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment community that’s designed with pets in mind. The community includes amenities like a pet washing station and dedicated pet areas, making it easy to keep pets comfortable and active during their stay. I provide a safe, calm environment where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and I’ll always follow your care instructions to help them feel right at home.
“13/10 recommene!! Kaitie and her family took a good care of my baby girl. They are very flexible of drop off/pick up time and allow your pup to sleep with them in bed at nights. Multiple pics were sent each day. She is super sweet!! Will definitely recommend to anyone.”
“We’ve used Nancy a few times for boarding our golden retriever pup and she is fantastic! We love her bubbly and welcoming personality. We’ve always felt like our pup has been in great hands with exceptional care. Highly recommend!!!”
“I was so happy to bring the pups to someone who I can trust and they will be in a great environment. Holly was great to let me bring them for a meet and greet to be more familiar with everything/everyone there. Holly accommodated my early leave and later evening weekend pickup.”

“Selena provided outstanding care for my tortoiseshell cat, Patches. She maintained a clean litter box, ensured Patches received her meals, and handled her sassy personality with ease. I was able to travel without worry knowing Patches was well cared for.”
About: Although I never owned a cat because my mom is allergic and my landlord does not allow them, I have always adored cats. I started cat sitting during COVID for a family friend. I am responsible when it comes to feeding and litter box care, and I love to play with cats. Cuddly cats are my favorite, but I respect the space of cats who prefer to be left alone.
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I recently graduated with my BSN in Animal Sciences, and have been working in the veterinary field since 2022. I am currently working as a full-time emergency veterinary assistant.
About: I have immense experience caring for my own cat, Stella. Managing Stella’s daily needs has taught me about creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for cats, from feeding and grooming to keeping her entertained and happy. My experience with Luna has also made me familiar with the nuances of feline behavior and the patience and understanding it takes to make cats feel secure and loved. I’d be thrilled to bring this same level of care to other cats!
“We are so amazed by the care that Rita provided our boys when we were away. We knew from our initial meeting that she offers her services because she loves pets so much. We will definitely only hire her for our future needs and we recommend her without reservation!”

“Overall, they are AMAZING dog sitters and do a great job! I was given tons of pictures of my Auggie having a great weekend and I was very nervous to leave him for the first time. They did a great job instilling good habits in my puppy while having him enjoy his weekend with completely new people. I’m extremely satisfied and will be using them again!!”
“I absolutely love Linda and David. They do an amazing job every single time. They take such great care of my dog and always make sure to send me pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind. My dog is always so excited when he sees them — that alone tells me how well they treat him. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and truly wonderful sitter!”
“My dog Max appeared to have a wonderful time at Richard and Kelly’s. It’s awesome to have found a place close to work and home to take him for daycare :) 100% going again !!”
“Nancy’s was great! We were in town for graduation and needed a pet sitter for a few hours to attend the ceremony. Nancy’s was very attentive and excited to take care of Chai. She was in great hands and I highly recommend her to anybody who wants extra special treatment for their pup.”
“Corrie and Greg took amazing care of my 5 mo. old puppy for daycare! She got plenty of walks and had a great time playing with their other dogs and kids! I also received updates and pictures throughout the day which were so relieving and reassuring. I'd definitely recommend Corrie and Greg and rebook with them again!”
About: My family has had dogs my entire life so I have been loving and caring for dogs ever since I can remember. Around the age of 13 years old, family, friends, and neighbors have all trusted and relied on me to take care of their dogs. On top of that, I have 2 years of experience working in a doggy day care center whilst in High-school. There I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I am able to feed, walk, bathe, and of course play with your fur babies while making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and safe. I am a full time student at Virginia Tech but have a very flexible schedule, as a lot of my classes are online. With that being said, I will be able to spend lots of time with your pet(s) to ensure they feel loved and comfortable being in my presence. While home in Charlotte during the summer, I have a fenced in backyard and am available anytime. I care for pets exactly how the owner requests that I do. Unless asked otherwise, making a connection with the pets is extremely important to me and giving them all the love while their parents are away.
“Deann was wonderful! We were a last minute booking and she could not have been more flexible or more gracious! Our puppy had a great afternoon. We will definitely be return customers!”
“Our previous sitter told me they are moving, which prompted me to search for a new sitter. I decided to try Rebecca, and am I glad I did! I was happy with our first sitter, but LuLu spent her time there just sniffing their yard and snuggling up on the couch with the sitter. She barely ate and wouldn't play with their dog. It was such a delight to see how happy LuLu was at Rebecca's place. She ran around the yard like I haven't seen her do since she was a puppy. When Rebecca thought LuLu needed a rest and brought her inside, LuLu whined to go back out, so out she went for more running around! Finally, she took a nap on the couch, then got up and ate all of her dinner. Then she settled down chewing on her toy until we came back for her. She was happy to see us, but gave Rebecca a tail wag when they said goodbye. I'm so glad LuLu found a place where she can thrive when we're gone. Now I won't hesitate to book a vacation! Rebecca was very attentive to the history I gave her about LuLu and my instructions about her routine and fears. We did a Meet & Greet on short notice, and Rebecca showed LuLu and me her back yard and inside her house. She assured me that she would never give LuLu an opportunity to run away. The way Rebecca gave me updates all day long assured me that LuLu was being well cared for and was having a great time. Rebecca is definitely Lulu's new sitter. I couldn't be happier with her care.”
About: I’ve owned a black Labrador(Anna) for over 13 years, she has not once had any sort of health issue as I’ve feed her well, and kept her up to date on vet visits. I’m caring, compassionate, and smart and versatile enough to be calm in any situation that may arise. I assure you that I will treat your pet as if it were my own. This allows me the freedom to stay focused on your pet and be there when other folks have to leave. If a situation ever does arrive my strength are communication so you can rest assured I will be in constant contact, which as a pet owner for an older girl myself id expect from others if I left her in their care. If the pet requires adequate exercise I have no problem going on a long walk with them and the space is pet friendly as my dog (Anna) is there. In your home, I can assure you that my experience will allow me to provide the best care for your loved ones.
“Marah was awesome and so sweet! We sent her a request super late notice and she accepted right away! She was so flexible with us and our puppy had a GREAT time! He's still tired from a full day of play!”
About: I am a veterinarian who has dedicated her life to caring for animals. I have worked with animals from a young age, including many hours working in vet offices in high school leading up to college and vet school (became a licensed vet in 2020). I am quite comfortable with caring for animals who need medications administered, or more intense levels of care while their owners are away. Working with animals brings me joy and peace, and making sure they are happy and well cared for is my life mission. I believe in fear free handling, and I am happy to work with animals who do not trust unknown people. I am a licensed veterinarian but I am currently in grad school so I am very flexible. I can be home all day if needed, and can provide close supervision. I have a 3 year old female German Shepherd (very friendly!) and cats (mostly outdoor). I have the ability to keep my dog separate if needed but she loves playing with other dogs! I have a full sized truck and the ability to transport animals with me safely. I have 2.5 acres of fenced land for dogs to run and play as well as a small fenced in section adjacent to the house. A pet door offers come and go access to the house. I am free to drop in during the week or board animals for extended periods, and if your animal needs medications administered as part of their care I am very capable. I am comfortable handling large dogs (I have a lot of practice in my line of work as a veterinarian). I am also comfortable with young animals, cats, older animals, and any animal requiring high levels of care.
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was a little kid. My experience is feeding, walking, training and more! I’m great with helping dogs anxieties and stressors especially in a new environment. I will cater to your dogs needs and will provide a relaxing home. Open availability! I’m a stay at home mom and would love to take care and make sure you and your dog feel comfortable with the environment. I have a lot of experiences with different levels of anxieties and stressors especially in new environments. I will provide a comfortable and cozy home to help the dogs relax.
“Loved having Cindy watch my new rescue pup ! Gave me updates and pictures throughout the day. Was super flexible with my work schedule . Very responsive . Will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: Some of my pet experience includes bathing dogs, taking care of dogs for friends, having my own dog who i care for, and loving all animals. I’ve trained my dog to for certain commands which i believe is very helpful. All my friends come to me when they need someone to take care of their fur babies! I am a college student with a work load, however no job. A lot of my days are spent in my home doing homework and pet care fits into my schedule because I can always be there to play and take you pets out. I don’t have very long classes either or in a big stretch so your pay would be cared for almost 24/7 I care for pets as if they were my children haha! In my home, I have bowls, treats, and toys for your pets. In your home, I would respect the space and take care of your pet as if it were my own.

“Hannah arrived on time and had an excellent repoire when first meeting our 2 dogs. She was friendly and polite, and on the day she took care of the pups she sent photos. An excellent experience! Highly recommend.”
About: I have cared for dogs my entire life, from my own pets, to taking care of friends and family’s pets. I have assisted in training exercises and am well versed in counting and reinforcing trained behavior. I have 5 years of experience with doggie day care and basic grooming services. I am available on weekdays and weekends for walking, pet sitting, or general pet care needs. I am a full time artist, so my schedule is relatively flexible. I care for my clients pets just as if they were my own, by providing focused care, attention, and love to all pets in my care.
About: My family adopted a 10 month old rescue pup, Charlie, when I was 7 years old. For the 12 years that I got to spend with him he was my best friend. Although he was stronger than me the first few years of his life, I was still involved in his training and feeding care until I was big enough to take him out and walk him. Once I could handle him, I took him out, walked him, and helped give baths. As an adult, I have done multiple pet-sitting jobs for neighbors and family friends. I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages. My job experience includes retail, landscaping, and food/bar service. Working late nights in downtown Blacksburg, I have become keen at cleaning up messes of all kinds. This summer, my schedule is wide open! I play pool a couple of nights a week, but that doesn't last for more than a few hours and I can always go late/leave early to get back to the pets. When the school year starts, I will schedule pet sitting around my class schedule. I am equipped to handle dogs of almost any size on a leash, and I love to play fetch in a yard/at the park. I can keep food and water bowls clean and full, I can crate dogs if needed, and I can keep a litter box clean!
About: I have years of experience of animal handling. I have worked as a zoo educator and have pet sat for years. I have a passion for animals and their well being. I’m available most days for visits and overnight stays. You can contact me through the app and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my priorities while caring for them. I’m experienced and comfortable with administering medication (oral and injections). I have stayed overnight for clients many times and have a few repeat clients.
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I recently graduated with my BSN in Animal Sciences, and have been working in the veterinary field since 2022. I am currently working as a full-time emergency veterinary assistant. I currently work full-time at an emergency veterinary hospital. I have plenty of time on my days off and after work to care for your pets! I would be very comfortable taking your furry friends for walks, crating them, or just hanging out! I love all animals, and am looking forward to caring for your furry friend!
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have a lifelong love for animals. As a dog owner myself with two dogs at home, I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pets the same way you do. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, potty breaks, exercise, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also know how reassuring it is to receive updates, so I’ll send photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay or visit to give you peace of mind. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own, and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I currently do work full time but I do create my own schedule and am pretty flexible so we can work around the hours needed for you and your pet! I do currently have two male dogs who are 8 and 9 years old. They both are very friendly and very playful. They play with puppies and older dogs very well and they’re very diverse with sizes of dogs who they are around. If your dog is aggressive to other male dogs, this won’t be a good fit for you. However, i’m happy to have an introduction to make sure everyone is comfortable. We tend to take a lot of walks and play ball in the yard throughout the day. During the summer we swim in the pop up pool we have for the boys and get the zooms out!
About: As a dedicated pet owner caring for my two dogs Grayson (Beagle) and Maggie (Cocker Spaniel). I manage their daily routines, including walks, feeding, playtime, grooming, and health needs. Through my experience I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior, safety, and care, as well as skills in providing consistent, loving care. My goal is to bring that same level of attentiveness and warmth to every pet I care for. Additionally, I’ve spent the past two years walking my neighbors’ dogs, which has given me experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide pet care at times that work best for you and your pet’s routine. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended sitting, I can adapt to your schedule to ensure your pets receive consistent, loving attention whenever needed. Let’s work together to create a care plan that fits seamlessly with your needs! Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in their homes. I treat each home and pet with the same respect and attention I would my own, ensuring a secure and nurturing environment. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and favorite spots, helping them feel relaxed and happy in their familiar surroundings. I’m committed to open communication, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
About: Hi! I have experience caring for senior dogs and cats as well as kittens. I have helped change diapers, clean up messes, give relaxing baths, and provide as much exercise as possible for any pets I have watched over the years. As a professional housekeeper, no incontinence issue is too much for me! As long as your fur baby is happy and safe. I am currently on leave without pay from my full time job (until an undetermined time) so I have open availability to pet sit this summer for anyone who plans on taking a little vacation! I treat all pets with kindness and patience, always keeping in mind that any "aggression" is just a tiny animal who may be scared or hurting. Every animal is different and I'm always willing to learn how to keep each one safe depending on what the owner wants. I am also willing and open to being recorded on home security cameras to build that trust, as I have them in my home as well to watch over my cats. I provide a quiet, peaceful environment for your pet or I can play for hours until they are tired!

“Shannon was wonderful! Her home is a perfect dog palace - very dog friendly with lots of room and a great, fenced backyard! She has nice large areas indoors to be able to separate them as needed. She was super accommodating in setting up a meet n greet prior to Gemma's stay. I think it's always nice to let dogs meet and sniff things out before just dropping them off at a strangers home! Gemma is slow to warm up to other dogs and Shannon allowed her space to do that, which I greatly appreciate. Her own two dogs are very friendly and well behaved - good energy to have when your dog might be nervous in a new place. Highly recommend and we'll definitely be back. Thanks so much, Shannon!!”
“As always, Liz took tremendous care of our Aussie, Stella! I am always at ease knowing she is having a blast at the farm. Our Stella definitely loves the time she gets to spend with Liz <3”
“Holy cow, our dog’s experience with Kurt could not have been better! Kurt kept in amazing touch with us and sent photos of his many adventures with our dog. I would definitely have him as my first choice any time we need care. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!”
“They were able to take my Dog and Cat on short notice and took good care of both. A little out of the way but lots of land in wooded area for you dog to explore.”
About: I am a stay at home Mom and would love to help other pet owners be at ease knowing their pets are being taken care of while you’re at work or out of town. Being at home allows me to be very flexible with the care you need. My family has both a dog and cat at home, so I’m familiar with the care needed for both. I’ve also cared for an elder dog before needing insulin administered. I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is very flexible to work with your needs! I’m happy to work with you! I have a large un-fenced yard surrounded by woods; supervised time outside only and on a leash unless you and I both are confident in obedience to come when called. I have a small dog at home who prefers a cuddle buddy over a play mate, but she is friendly with most dogs and loves cats! In the event I leave home I prefer crating until I get to know your pup.
“We are so happy we have finally found a caring home for our boys. Emily is so nice and took great care of Jax and Louie. She sent us so many pictures every day so we were able to see them while we were gone. We will definitely take them to Emily again.”
About: I am an avid animal lover. So when friends, family, and friends of friends have looked for pet sitters they come to me! I have experience with dogs as little as Chihuahuas to as big as Rottweilers and we all know who is more feisty ;) I work during the week but am available for walks after 5pm. I am available for boarding all day on the weekends or during the week if your pets are low-needs during the day! I have a private 3+ acre yard with a kenneled in area if needed. I have crates for my dogs and more than happy to crate yours if needed. I am willing to accommodate most needs/request as long as you are willing to communicate!
“Marah did an amazing job taking care of our fur baby!! She kept us updated and sent pictures daily! She had a very quick response time to our messages as well. We will definitely be using Marah again in the future. We would highly recommend her.”
“13/10 recommene!! Kaitie and her family took a good care of my baby girl. They are very flexible of drop off/pick up time and allow your pup to sleep with them in bed at nights. Multiple pics were sent each day. She is super sweet!! Will definitely recommend to anyone.”
“We’ve used Nancy a few times for boarding our golden retriever pup and she is fantastic! We love her bubbly and welcoming personality. We’ve always felt like our pup has been in great hands with exceptional care. Highly recommend!!!”
“I was so happy to bring the pups to someone who I can trust and they will be in a great environment. Holly was great to let me bring them for a meet and greet to be more familiar with everything/everyone there. Holly accommodated my early leave and later evening weekend pickup.”
“They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!”
“We highly recommend David! This was our first time using Rover and we were nervous about leaving our dog, Olive, for a whole week with someone we didn't know. After meeting David, our fears dissipated and we felt pretty confident that Olive would enjoy her stay. David has a calm, gentle demeanor, and Olive seemed relaxed around him from the beginning. We enjoyed the daily pictures of Olive that he texted to us. We will definitely ask David again if we need someone to watch our dog!”
“Lawdy was great to work with! She watched our two dogs for almost a full week, after being asked very last minute, and she gave them the love and attention they needed while she had them. We also had our return flight canceled because of the Microsoft crash (July 2024) and we needed to get home, so we rented a car to drive home instead. It took us an unexpected extra day to get home to pick up our fur-babies, and she made it so easy and stress-free. We would definitely recommend Lawdy for your dogs. 💕”
“Abigail went above and beyond in her care for our Lola! I think Lola enjoyed her visit very much, as it felt like Lola was missing Abigail and Cleo the day we brought her home. 🙂 Thank you for such great care!”
