“Carrie was attentive to the needs of my furbabies and sent me picks to cheer me up when things with my trip had gone awry. Indiana and Georgie loved her and I was comfortable leaving my puppies with Carrie, which I have been reticent to do for many years. I usually take them where ever I go in a car, but could not on a plane. She also soothed my fears about possible damage to my home during hurricane Helene. Thank you Carrie for bing so sweet to my guys.”


“Vanessa is absolutely fantastic. She goes above and beyond expectations and is very good with pets. I recently went on vacation and was updated daily with pics and info on my dogs day. I highly recommend Vanessa for any kind of pet sitting and will definantly use her services agian in the future”


“Debra was wonderful with my golden retriever who is under restricted activity and medication following surgery. Debra took great care of my girl and was very communicative with me so I didn't worry about her.”


“Kisa is an animal lover by nature. Our pets loved her from their first meet and greet with her! She was very thorough and thoughtful with her questions and made sure all expectations were clear. We would definitely have Kisa over to watch our pets again!”


About: I have a hard time sitting inside on a nice day and understand your puppy probably does, too! As a mom to several anxious kitties, I understand that every animal comes with their own needs and personality. I'm happy to spend time walking, playing, snuggling, or giving space as needed. I'm a teacher with two weeks off in January and two months off in June/July. I have ample time to give your little friends a little extra love. I'm especially attuned to furry friends who, in their excitement, are eager to slip out the door as soon as someone comes in! I'm very mindful of keeping everyone on an leash and under constant supervision as needs be.

About: I have taken care of dogs for about 6 years, however I have had my own dogs for longer. I have experience caring for elderly dogs, such as giving medication and insulin injections. I love all dogs, and I’m always excited to meet new friends! I am working virtually part time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I am free all days most days of the week, with the exception of some appointments. Unfortunately I will be moving to Raleigh for school in mid August, so I will not be able to watch any animals after that time. I have people who watch my own dogs in my home, so I always strive to provide the care I would want my own babies to have. I will make sure there are no messes and make sure your pets are happy and content!

About: I have owned, grown up with, and taken care of animals since I could walk. The day that I was honorably discharged from the Navy, I actually went and picked up my Pitty MIx from the shelter and we were best friends for the best 11 years. Animals are misunderstood in so many different ways, and require patience, attention to detail, and most importantly love. I am very driven, schedule oriented, can multitask, and observant in everything that I do. I have a reliable source of transportation, my own home in Morganton, and will always be just a phone call/text away. I have taken care of all age ranges from puppies to senior dogs, because I have owned dogs from birth until their final days. Its not the easiest thing some days but it is the most rewarding. I work a full time job Monday through Thursday 0600-1630, and off on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Pet care fits into my routine because I have a dog of my own that requires daily walks and interactions with others at daycare. I have a fenced in back yard, that I am able to watch from at all times. My dog is allowed on the furniture and also goes with me on car rides. My dog is everything to me and is reflective of that in my pride with other animals. They're family!

“This was my first time using Iliana as a sitter for our pitbull, Jackson. I will definitely be booking her again. When we returned from vacation we had a happy dog, and a clean house. She was very attentive to Jackson, and sent several photos every day.”


“Natisha helped me out at the last minute and did a terrific job with my dog and cat. Her positive attitude put me at ease, and she was responsive, caring, and helpful. I will definitely have her again!”



“Marly communicated at least twice a day about how our dogs were doing and always communicated if she was leaving them for an amount of time other than when at work. The house was left the exact way we left it other than the normal dog traffic in the mud room. Our dogs seemed like they didn't even miss us much when we got back which means they got plenty of love and exercise while we were gone for 5 days. Marly is very capable and we felt confident she could take care of our dogs even if something were to have gone wrong - which it didn't! Our family will certainly be asking Marly to sit again!”


“Even though I was only away for a couple of days, Faith showed my guys a lot of love and sent pics of them eating and on their walk.. They really liked her attention.”

“Suzanne came to the rescue midway through my trip. We had another Rover sitter who had to be removed. It was awful. I was beside myself with worry.

Stop looking if Suzanne is available. She's amazing.”

About: My name is Samantha and I have been around and cared for dogs most of my life. I have always loved dogs. I currently have two dogs. The oldest is almost 4 years old and he is a Dalmatian. The youngest is 2 years old and is a mixed breed, we fostered him and decided to adopt him. They are both friendly and love other dogs. I have been fostering dogs for local rescue groups for about 2 years now. I really enjoy helping out dogs that are in need of some extra love, attention, and a place to stay while they find their forever homes. If you are in need of someone to take your dog/ dogs for a walk, come let them out to get some exercise and use the bathroom, someone to watch your dog while you are away, or whatever the need may be I would be happy to help.
