“Christy was available right away, same day and I am so thankful. I work a hybrid schedule and was called into the office last minute. We have a new puppy and yesterday was the first day he was home by himself I needed someone to give him a walk and a little exercise. Christy was very prompt in her response she sent me beautiful pictures and roll with the punches as we could not find the collar or leash. Thank you so much Christy look forward to using you in the future”

About: I’m trustworthy, friendly, and attentive, providing loving care for your pet as if they were my own—ensuring their happiness, safety, comfort, and well-being every day. I’m currently unemployed and available most hours of the day to help with you and your pet’s needs, providing flexible, attentive, loving, and dependable care. I live with my parents and their dogs, who are not great with others—so I’m only available for reliable pet care exclusively at your home.

About: I have taken care of family and friends dogs for as long as I can remember. From feeding, grooming, picking up their droppings, and walking. I have experience in older dogs and have assist on administering medication. Only have experience in neonatal care for kittens. Other skills include: -Deep cleaning and administrating medication for flea prevention. -Using a variety of automatic feeders and chip-reader feeders. -Deep cleaning mechanical feeders and water bowl. -Neonatal kitten care: Bottle feeding, stimulating their elimination, keeping safe, warm, and clean. I’m currently part time and will be available during the afternoon and weekends! I can do other times if I’m somehow available or have enough notice. I currently have two cats! Harlow (3) and Sasha (4), I love them so much and want to give them the best life! Ways I do this is… enough toys, tall cat tree, and bird feeder to stimulate them mentally and physically so they won’t be bored or act out due to boredom. I feed them grain-free food and treats to make sure their tummy’s are healthy (they’re also very picky)! I clean their litter box twice a day and deep clean it weekly to prevent soils outside the litter box. I snuggle with them as much as I possible can!

About: My family has had a family dog for as long as I’ve been alive. In addition to that I’ve done multiple pet sitting and walking for both dogs and cats. I love animals and am using this time when I can’t have one to love the animals around me. I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet! Whenever I have watched pets in the past, I work my schedule around their needs. My previous job even allowed animals so I could bring them to work with me and give them care all day. My apartment doesn’t have much space for pets but I’m very familiar with the local pet friendly places in the community and socialize them based on the needs of the animal. I have experience providing daily pet medication including insulin injections 2x per day.

About: I grew up with cats and have been taking care of people's dogs for many years. I was often the go to person for dog sitting in my co-housing community where I lived until recently in Santa Fe, NM. I moved back east at the end of 2022. *Please note that I charge $30 for meet and greets. I can add this on to your total booking fee or you can pay some other way. This ensures that people have a serious intention of booking when they ask me to come out and meet them and their animals and it also ensures that I am compensated for the time I spend doing this. Thank you for your understanding!* In the spring of 2022, I completed my graduate school classes in art therapy and clinical counseling at Southwestern College in NM and am working towards growing my business as an artist. I have the flexibility to pet sit often during this transition. I do not have an "online job". I take my artwork with me when I housesit and work on things that I can do at other people's homes (like sewing). Because of this, I am able to spend most of the time pet sitting at home with the animal. I enjoy connecting with both cats and dogs in their homes. I like taking dogs out on long hikes and I am a cat whisperer.

About: I have owned cats and dogs my whole life so I have experience caring for them. I have raised litters of kittens from birth multiple times. I also am getting a degree in wildlife rehabilitation which is helpful in pet care because I have experience with messy situations, baby animals and unexpected circumstances! I mostly pet sit on break, so if I’m sitting during that time my schedule is very flexible and can mold to the owners needs. If I’m at school I available more often for early morning/ late night care and overnights. I unfortunately cannot offer up my own home/ dorm but would do my best at the client’s home. I am more than willing to spend extra time with pets and ensure they are cared for and happy.

About: I've had pets my entire life and have always been someone friends and family rely on for pet care! Able to provide a variety of services and detail oriented to ensure your pets feel safe and comfortable. I currently work full-time, with the opportunity to WFH when caring for pets. My schedule is flexible and can accommodate a variety of pet needs - including walks, frequent potty breaks (2-4 hours), and enrichment time. I have a large fenced yard for your dogs to play in. I have a large crate within the home that can be used as needed. I have one medium sized dog and one cat, who can be separated from your pets, if needed, however both are very friendly!

About: I grew up around a dog and learning to take care of him was no problem! I’ve walked many many dogs and after suffering a back break in January I’ve had to walk everyday to keep my muscles strong. I can’t wait to meet your pets and help out any way I can! I could walk or stop in early morning, mid afternoon, or late evening. Some evenings I teach piano! I am available pretty much every day over the summer. I walk my pets, make sure they go potty multiple times a day especially if they are acting as though they want to go outside. Make sure they are occupied with enriching activities while inside and keeping their brains active!

“Friendly, caring, wrote a detailed Rover card and sent pics of our doggo so we knew he was doing well! Would definitely recommend Angel to help take care of your pet!”

About: I have 4 dogs of my own, 3 are rescues and I wouldn’t trade them for the world. I’ve also taken care of friends and family’s pets while out of town and used to dog groom with a friend of mine. I currently work a full time job in Boone, Nc. I would love to be able to take care of your fur babies full time instead! Three of my dogs are crated while i’m not home but after Im home they get to run around inside and they are walked before i leave, and while Im home. Once Im doing this full time they will not be crated as much. I do not have a fenced in yard so they are walked instead as much as possible! But could also put up a temporary fence if needed!

About: I have professional experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments as a kennel care attendant. I'm also working towards my bachelor's degree in wildlife rehabilitation! I've owned all kinds of pets growing up from dogs and cats to mice, bunnies, birds, fish, and even a snake and a frog. I will treat your pets the same as my own, with respect and complete adoration. I'll even send you pictures of your pets during each visit for when you're missing your babies. I'm currently working towards a bachelor's of science degree, so I'll be pretty busy in the morning on weekdays (when in Banner elk, nc). My schedule usually calms down after 12pm, except Teusdays which are very busy. Please feel free to message me about what you're looking for and we can see if things will work out. I will not be able to stay at your house 24/7 due to my schedule. I will also have to go home for school breaks (winter/summer/spring). When I am at home (Newport News, VA), I will be available 24/7. Just message me and I'll let you know if my location has changed or will be changing before the date you need. But I will be doing my best to change my location on here in a timely manner. I'm a big advocate for playtime. I won't just stand around your house during the scheduled visits and let your dog be bored. We'll play with toys and run around and if you have a fenced in yard you can be sure I'll be out there throwing a tennis ball or playing tug of war with your pup until they're exhausted. I'll make sure our walks leave your dog well excersized and ready to nap for hours after we get home.

“Emelia was great. Very communicative, always timely. She was flexible and sweet to my little doggie. I really enjoyed Emelia and would have continued using her, however we moved. I highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve had my current dog, Cooper, ever since he was a puppy. I love him with all my heart! He has some digestion issues, is very particular, and barks alot so I’m no stranger to high-matinence dogs. I like to think that I’ve mastered the art of giving dogs their medications. Outside of the house, I dog sit around my neighborhood. I’ve taken care of all different types of dogs! Small dogs, big dogs, aggressive dogs, young dogs, old dogs, you name it! In my free time, I also volunteer at the local SPCA. I sometimes help take care of the senior dogs. I love my dog with all of my heart… I will take amazing care of yours!! Im currently a student at App State University! I’m staying in Boone, NC for the summer and am totally available! I have my own car and i’m not afraid of a little drive :) If I’m being complete honest, the way I care for pets is similar to the way someone might treat a human baby. I take my dog for ride in the car everyday to get a Pup cup as well as a 20 minute walk. I tend to walk him in the evening because it’s cooler! I let him out in the yard every other hour, as we have an electric fence installed around our big backyard. For my cat, I scoop her litter everyday. Since she’s old, she can’t groom herself very well so I brush her each day as well. Once a day, I let her go play outside but I always keep an eye on her! Every morning and night, I give both pets their medications along with some treats! I also take both of their collars off so they can be comfortable for the night. In a clients home, I would bring this same energy! Of course, I would respect any/all preferences and rules given. I would make sure that any pets under my care felt loved and cared for!

About: I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love. Your pets will get lots of care and attention under my supervision- I work from home & prioritize play. I’ve looked after animals of all breeds, ages, & temperaments- from anxious & fussy older pets to energetic young puppies. I have experience administering medications to sick animals, hand feeding injured puppies, walking several pets at once, and managing dogs & cats that are a bit wild. I’ve even cared for lizards, turtles, fish, plants (haha), hamsters, birds, & rabbits. Whatever their needs, I will make sure they feel safe, loved, & at home while they’re with me. I am a full time artist who works from home. Your pet’s excellent care will be my top priority when you hire me! They will receive as much love, play, walks and attention as you request. I live in a fairly large home with a large fenced in backyard, and nice quiet streets to walk with your pet as needed. I will follow whatever routines you generally stick to and prefer when working with your animals.

“Hailie did a wonderful job with Vinny and Rocky. Vinny being a pup is hard to wear out, but she did a great job. We will use her again I am sure!”
