Pet Sitting Vilas

“Morgan was wonderful to us! We lost one of our dogs this week, and had some anxiety about leaving our other pets. She was very accommodating, empathic, and understanding. This was not unique to our situation- that’s just how she is. It really eased our minds that our other pets got such great care. We will certainly hire Morgan again and think you should, too!”

“Thank you so much Kendall! I can tell our dogs loved having you drop in for visits, and we were happy to see the cat warmed up to you as well. We loved seeing the photos of all the pets.”

About: I have been fostering dogs for 15 years now, and have 5 years of pet sitting experience. I have worked with high and low energy dogs, as well as dogs with disabilities such as seizures and diabetes. I love all animals and am committed to making your pets time away from you as comfortable as possible! I currently work part-time, but only during the evenings, so I am available for a majority of the day to care for pet needs. I am a somewhat early riser and also know of the unnecessary stress put on an animal when their daily routines are disrupted, so I am adaptable when it comes to dogs with stricter schedules. I am only providing drop-in services as I have two dogs of my own. I am comfortable walking dogs of all sizes and with issues of pulling and leash aggression. I work to maintain a clean environment for the animal as well as keeping them entertained and healthy.

“Leah was so great with my dog! She sent lots of photos and updates which was perfect for what I wanted. Communicated often and quickly. Would definitely recommend her!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them. I have cared for dogs and cats for family, friends, and pet owners who trust me to provide reliable, loving care. I enjoy keeping pets active, comfortable, and happy through walks, playtime, cuddles, and consistent routines. Previously owning a senior dog, I have firsthand experience providing attentive care for aging pets and understand the patience, consistency, and compassion they require. I treat every pet like family and strive to make their time away from their owners as stress free and enjoyable as possible. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy spending my free time with animals. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide reliable walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand the importance of consistency and communication, and I am committed to making sure your pet receives attentive care and plenty of love while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs to ensure they feel secure and well cared for. As an owner of a senior dog, I have experience caring for pets of all ages and understand the patience and attention some animals require. Whether in your home or on a walk, I will treat your pet like family and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Cady is the best. She did a number of drop-in visits for my senior cat during a trip of mine and she went above and beyond to make sure my cat was cared for and loved. She provided awesome pictures and videos from her visits, with great details of her visits too. She also went above and beyond again by being very courteous with her tidiness and ensuring the house was as good as new when I returned. I can't say enough good things about Cady! Though she was just checking on my cat, her professionalism and care make me sure that she'd be amazing with any pet that comes her way. I highly recommend Cady!”

“Katy was great! Easy going and very communicative. Made sure our kitties got the attention we wanted to make sure they had while we were away. Would definitely rebook!”

Carly G.

“Jessica is great. I have two cats and one of them is very shy and the other one is outgoing. They both loved her and I loved that in one of Jessica’s pictures. She actually got a picture of my shy cat rubbing up against her.😻 my cats are very good at judging good people”

“Phoebe is great with my dog Owen and the cats. He’s usually very scared of people but warmed up to her right away. She spent lots of time with them and ensured they got their medications and food correctly!”

Kayla B.

“Alexandra was very good at communicating with me about scheduling and when she would be able to come check on our new puppy. She sent pictures and was very thorough about how the visit went, which was amazing! 10/10 recommend her services, thank you Alexandra!!”

About: I have grown up with all sizes and ages of dogs from an elderly black Lab to a baby Maltese Shitzu. I love all types of animals and have pet-sat for many people, including coworkers, neighbors, and roommates. I am a recent graduate of Appalachian State University living in Boone for the summer. Then moving to Greenville, NC in the Fall to attend East Carolina University for graduate school. I am available anytime! To care best for your animal, I will respect the space and privacy of your home. Please provide specifications so I can ensure all guidelines will be followed.

About: I grew up on a farm and so I have been taking care of a variety of animals since I was a child. I’ve had many dogs and cats as well as other farm animals so I have a wide range of experiences. I am capable of both infant and senior animal care if needed as well. I am currently a student and working part time but I have lots of time before and after my classes and work to care for animals, I have a car and live close to the town center of Boone. I have my own cat who I take care of but I love to spend time with any animal I care for making sure they get enough socialization in addition to any feeding or cleaning they might need.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I take the time to get to know each pet so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving, reliable hands. As a college student, I don’t have the time to have a pet of my own right now, so pet sitting is the perfect way for me to spend time with animals while helping other pet owners. I genuinely enjoy caring for pets, whether that means going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. Pet care fits well into my schedule, and I love being able to give pets the attention and care they deserve while their owners are away. I primarily provide care in my clients’ homes because I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I also make sure their home stays clean and secure while they’re away. If I care for a pet in my own home, I’ll provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment where they receive plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection.

About: I’ve been very passionate about pet sitting since I was 14, caring for every type of pet from tiny fish to large dogs of all breeds and ages. Whether it’s keeping a senior dog comfortable, playing with an energetic kitten, or tending to a full fish tank, I love giving each pet the care and attention they need to feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Caring for my dog named Millie has made pet care an everyday part of my routine. From morning walks to playtime and feeding, I’ve learned how to keep a pet happy and healthy, and I bring that same love and attention to every pet I care for. At my home, I provide a safe, comfortable space for pets with a consistent routine of play, exercise, and meals while also ensuring that my dog and the dog I care for are comfortable together. For pet sitting in clients homes, I stick to their pets’ usual routines, offering the same care and attention to ensure they feel loved and secure while their owners are away.

“Skyla was great with my pups and took good care of them while we were away!”

About: Throughout middle and high school I was a local dog sitter to several different families in my neighborhood. Now, I spend my time volunteering at the local animal shelter or pet sitting. I currently am in graduate school at Appalachian State. I am only in class Monday and Tuesdays and the rest of the week I work part time at a school. I’m able to come home in between classes to spend time with pets and let them outside. I care for pets like I would my own! I make sure that they have everything they need for their happiness and wellbeing. Dogs and cats get especially anxious when their owners leave, so I understand the importance of giving them extra love and care!

“We had the best experience with Carolyn! She was so prompt and we loved all the pictures of our happy Golden playing in the backyard while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Carolyn again!”

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was a toddler. I have fostered, pet sat for friends and family many times and recently lost my own dog of 13 years. I recently retired and miss having a pup in my life. I’m available and flexible for daily walks as well as able to provide boarding in my home. I am very attentive and loving toward all fur babies. I’m a firm believer that exercise and interactive play is essential in developing a bond with each pup.

“Exceptional!! Angel was amazing with our cats and home! She provided excellent details/photos twice daily allowing us to enjoy our vacation knowing our fur babies were in such loving and caring hands??”
