As he’s an old pup his legs are a bit weak; Debra went the extra mile to set up a carpet path and extra bedding to make sure he was comfortable and could walk around. She sent consistent updates and lots of photos. Truly made Joey feel welcome and was the best experience we could have ever had!”

If you’re looking for a pet sitter, I’d highly recommend her!”

My kitties usually beg for attention when I’m back but tonight they left me alone which is a sign that Jen took care of them well! My house looked like I never left it, since Jen kindly offered to sweep the floor that had bunch of kitty trackings. She followed my complicated cat care instructions to the T. She also sent me a lot of cute pictures of my kitties too. I had to extend my trip and she very accommodating in squeezing in another booking last minute.

About: I grew up with pets, from large to small. My sibling and friends always rely on me fostering their dogs and cats. I work from home and won’t leave your pets alone. My husband and I work full time from home, so your pets will always be attended to. They will pretty much hang out with us while we go about our day. My husband starts walking all of the dogs at around 8am. I will open my fenced yard at midday for a midday pee break. My husband will come back at around 6:30pm to give all of the dogs another walk. We usually feed the dogs their morning and evening meals after they come back from their walks. We will open the yard again before bed for a late night pee break.
“Thư was great with our dog, kept him engaged and entertained and kept me updated with photos and videos. The dog was very quickly comfortable with her and was sad to see her walk away when I picked him up. A really good sign that he enjoyed his stay. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Davis took amazing care of Flex for 4 days and did such an incredible job! He went above and beyond by sending us pictures of Flex, taking him to the dog park multiple times, walking him, and making sure he was well taken care of the entire time. He followed everything I asked and even taught Flex new tricks! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Flex was in such great hands. We are so thankful for all the care, attention, and love he gave Flex. I highly recommend Davis to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and amazing to care for their”
About: We're young professionals living in Cap Hill with several years of dog-care experience. We started sitting through Rover 3 years ago and have since added our own dog to the mix! Oliver is a 2-year-old mini poodle who we rescued just over a year ago. PLEASE NOTE: To make sure your pup has a comfortable stay, we require a meet-and-greet playdate prior to booking. We want to make sure that we are a good fit for your dog's needs! While we love all our furry friends, due to allergies in our family we are only able to take low-shedding, hypoallergenic dogs right now. One of us works from home, so your pup will get attention and care throughout the day. We like to start and end our days with a long walk in Volunteer Park. Oliver's other favorite activities include sleeping on the couch next to me while I work or perched on the back of couch, where he can look out the window and get a great view of all the neighborhood happenings. Your pup would be cordially invited to do the same! We use positive reinforcement training with Oliver and bring treats on all our walks to reward good behavior. If there are specific behaviors you want us to upkeep during your pup's stay, please don't hesitate to let us know. We know what a bummer it can be to have to retrain behaviors after just a few days away! We can't wait to meet your pup and make them feel at home during their stay! One of us works from home full-time and will be around for all your dog's needs. We typically start and end our day with a walk in Volunteer Park. Oliver will be happy to show your pup all his favorite spots to sniff! We take great care to make sure that all your pup's needs are met! Feel free to provide any specific instructions on the best ways to care for your pet (e.g., preferred schedule, training you'd like us to upkeep). We know how it can feel to entrust the care of your dog to someone else and want to make sure that they feel at home during their stay with us.
“Devan was awesome! Great communication and a natural at connecting with dogs and keeping them engaged. Benji did not want to leave! We hope to see Devan again!”

“Antonio watched my dog with not even a 12 hour notice. He was kind and patient with my young pup and demonstrated skills consistent with a quality caretaker for my dog. He provided updates and pictures throughout the day and got my dog some much needed exercise. I am grateful he was able to help me in a time of need. His dog Rubie is a sweetheart too and was patient with my 1.5 year old pup.”
“Juliana took such good care of my anxious dog!! She sent me update throughout the night and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable.”
“Mariia did a lovely job watching our dog. She is such a professional - asks all the right questions, communicates well, and provides a great experience for the pup. We were very happy to have her look after the big guy for an afternoon and were really pleased! We highly recommend her.”

“Rebekah is amazing! She is reliable, communicative, and always sends the sweetest updates and photos of Murphy after their walks. Recently Murphy has been sick, and Rebekah was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. She kept me informed, helped clean up after an accident, and truly went above and beyond. It's obvious she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I completely trust her with Murphy and will definitely continue booking with her.”
“Morgan was communicative, friendly, punctual, and clearly knowledgeable about dogs. She took my senior Golden out for a walk and I had no worries entrusting Beaux to her. I'd hire her again and can't recommend enough!”
“He has been doing great job! On one of the walks, our dog was having an issue that he helped take care of and then was able to swing back by later to check in on her before I was able to get home. This was much appreciated!”
“Jen was able to walk my dog on relatively short notice and has helped so much in terms of relaying behaviors she has noticed my pup! I'll gladly continue to use her services and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dogwalker as someone who has worked in animal care for years.”
“We hired Danielle for three weeks when our regular walker was away on vacation. And we were so lucky to find her! Our dog had just been hospitalized and was more tired and vulnerable than usual, so naturally we were concerned. Wow- Did you ever wish someone could spy on your dog sitter and report back to you? Well this is how amazing Danielle is: Someone who lives on our block (and rarely speaks to us) took the time to send us an email saying that they had seen Danielle interacting with our dog and they were so impressed with how kind and patient she was. We were so delighted! Danielle was 100% reliable, a superb communicator, and truly a gifted dog whisperer. Look no further- Your dog will be in great hands with Danielle!”
“Tunan was incredibly patient with my dog, even when he was a bit difficult during the meet and greet. She took the time to really understand him and was kind enough to give him another chance with a follow-up visit. Her communication was clear and consistent, she was always punctual, and most importantly, she treated my dog with such kindness and gentleness. I truly appreciate her dedication and would highly recommend Tunan to anyone looking for a thoughtful and compassionate sitter!”
About: I am happiest when caring for and bonding with animals of all kinds. As a volunteer with both a local animal shelter and wildlife rehabilitation center I have had experience providing extensive and complex care for animals with all sorts of differing needs. Growing up with, and continuing to care for, animals of my own has taught me so much about providing care at every stage of life. I have helped raise puppies, kittens, small chicks, and bottle fed orphaned wildlife. I am very comfortable understanding and respecting the boundaries of more reactive animals and will tailor my care to your pets individual needs and personality. I would be honored to be entrusted with your pets care and prioritize safety and communication above all else! I have a flexible schedule and will work with you in order to provide the best care for your pet/s where and when you need it. Safety is my number one priority, and I believe wholeheartedly in always acting with care and honesty. The care I provide is informed by your advice and individual needs, and the most important thing to me is providing a safe and comfortable environment for your pet.
“Molly is an excellent dog walker! My dog loved her and yours will too. She'll take great care of any pup that needs a stroll around town. Five stars, no notes”
“Talat was a great walker! Communicated with us well, sent lots of photos, was punctual for pick ups and seemed to love my dog and my dog loved her. Not to mention, she really went out of her way to understand how best to walk my dog, her quirks, etc. Can't ask for more.”
About: I specialize in caring for puppies and reinforcing the routines they’re already learning at home. Whether your pup is working on potty training, leash skills, or basic commands, I’ll help maintain consistency while providing plenty of love, play, and attention. As a I have been a dog mom myself, I know pets are family and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home as a professional artist and designer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of affection are things I genuinely enjoy and can easily incorporate into my routine. I’ve also been a dog mom myself, so caring for pets has already been a part of my everyday life. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, especially for puppies, senior dogs, or pets who feel more comfortable with consistency. If your pet needs an energetic walk, a quiet companion, or reinforcement of their training habits, I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs! I believe pets are family, and I strive to provide the same level of care, attention, and patience that I would want for my own dog. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and routine. In a client’s home, I strive to maintain the environment and schedule they’re already familiar with, including feeding times, walks, playtime, potty breaks, training routines, and any special instructions. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. I have experience working with puppies and understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and maintaining established training habits. I’m also attentive to each pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort needs, whether they enjoy active play, long walks, or simply quiet companionship. When caring for pets, I provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and the same level of respect and attention I would want for my own.

“My puppy and I needed someone who is reliable and consistent in terms of scheduling; we got super lucky to have found Brenda! She is communicative and a very kind person. She takes extra steps to get to know your pup and always seem so excited to spend time with him hehe. Very happy that I can rely on Brenda and grateful to have her as our dog walker!”

“Peter was the best dog sitter I could have found for my pup. Luke is 14 yo, so leaving him with someone isn’t always easy. Peter made the whole process incredibly smooth and friendly, and he made Luke feel right at home. He even took him on little adventures with Nova, while being very mindful of Luke’s needs and limits. Not only did he make Luke feel like part of his pack, but he also gave me great peace of mind with daily updates and photos where I could clearly see that Luke (even though he probably missed me) couldn’t have been in better hands. I’m especially grateful to Peter because when my return travel plans got complicated and the schedule didn’t quite line up, he was extremely flexible and helped me so much, making sure Luke got home safe and sound. Without a doubt, he will be my go-to person to take care of Luke the next time I have to travel.”

She took her on daily walks with her own dog and sent pics/videos/updates, which gave us such a sense of peace, knowing our girl was having a fun time with people who care deeply for the well-being and happiness of pets, theirs and ours. We definitely plan on rebooking if possible in the future because our dog was so well taken care of. Highly recommend Ana-Lisa!!!”
“Isabella was so great with CC! She was great to communicate with, pick up and drop off was super easy, and I got back a very tired dog! I would love to have CC stay with her again.”
“We also appreciated Adam’s communication and flexibility, as well as his comfort with our sometimes nervous yet larger dog. He updated us and was very thorough and Greta was a happy and comfortable pup at pickup. Highly recommended!”
“Samantha and Andrew took such great care of our dogs! They came home super happy and relaxed. In the past with other sitters, our dogs came how anxious but with Samantha and Andrew, they were calm and I could tell they were taken very good care of. Will definitely be using them again for future sitting needs!!”

She also responds quickly and provided us with pictures and updates throughout our trip. She is also flexible and was understanding of our possible changes in our trip plans and the delay we had in getting back to pick them up. We would definitely have our dogs stay with her again in the future!”
“Egor had Tigger for nearly two weeks and we never ever stress about how he’s doing. Egor’s dog, Courage, is Tigger’s very best friend and it makes us so happy to know that they have such fun playing together. We’re so appreciative!”
