About: Hi, my name is Taylor! I am a recent high school graduate who will be attending NC State University in the fall to study Animal Science. I have past experience with pet sitting, often for longer than a week. Along with that, I have over a year of experience shadowing at a local veterinary hospital. I also have experience taking care of my own fur babies at home! I would love to spread love and care to your pets if you’ll have me. Please reach out if interested! I currently work part-time at Chick-fil-a, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your fur babies! I have a flexible and light schedule which allows me to dedicate a lot of my time to the animals around me. When at a client’s home I love to curl up with a good book and a sweet cat. I also enjoy taking pups on walks and playing fetch or tug with them. I am always down to cuddle with any furry friend.
“Emily is great! She was very attentive with our cats and they warmed up to her quickly. She loves animals and took great care of them while we were out of town. We def noticed a difference when we came home vs leaving them alone or just having a neighbor check on them. Would def recommend Emily and book her again!”

About: I have had pets for many years and pet sat for friends and family! I have experience with senior pets all the way to puppies. I have always loved being around pets of all descriptions! I am an educator and I am off for the summer. My schedule is flexible for the summer months and school holidays. I am available in afternoons during the school year. I will be available to visit with animals and take them on walks, if appropriate. I will be able to play with animals or just sit and love on them!!
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. Fur babies have a special place in my heart and I will take the best of care of any kind of fur baby. I currently have a two golden doodles(<1), an Australian Shepard(2), miniature Aussie(12) and a cat(13) I rescued from the humane society. I currently work 3 days a week and attend college. I have a pretty flexible schedule other than the days I work from 9 to 6:30. I am available on those days before 9 and after 6:30. I live in a home with a fenced in yard and three large dogs. The dogs typically spend the day with us but when we aren’t home we put them outside in a kennel.
“Lauren was great with Twix. It was there first time just them being together he was a little shy but she was patient with him and sat with him. She was wonderful and kept us updated on Twix. I felt very comfortable with knowing she really cared about Twix and wanted to give him the best care. She even checked in to see how he was doing after the visit.”

“Carrie has been so polite, communicative, and so, so caring for my sweet doggo! I cannot recommend her enough and am so thankful to have a dog sitter who is compassionate and truly involved with her time spent with my baby!”

“I am amazed by Emmalyn! I just moved and i found her 2 days before my trip and she was the best! Very communicative, very detailed and she took the best care of my cats! Very loving. She also sent some extra videos and pictures. I will be hiring her again.”

About: Hi! My name is Madalyn and I love your pet already. From taking care of fish, hamsters, cats, dogs, horses, goats, and more, I have a wide set of skills and abilities that I will use to make sure your pet feels the most loved and cared for they possibly can. I understand how important your pets are to you, as an animal lover myself. I have a flexible schedule and will communicate directly with you to fully understand your needs. The love to love on your fur babies and make the process as smooth as possible for you. I can also care for farm animals (although the option isn’t listed on this app), as I have several years of experience in that area as well. Please contact me soon so that I can meet you and your baby. I currently have completely open availability for your pet sitting needs. I am open and available to work weekends, nights, week-long trips, etc. I am often available to accommodate you last minute as well. Reach out and let’s make it work! :) I take a pet-specific approach to each opportunity I am given. I like to “get on their level” and learn what makes them most comfortable. As a long time per owner myself, I know that what may work for one furry friend, might annoy another. Each dog, cat, reptile, hamster, and anything else you can think of (yes, even fish!) has their own personality and quirks. That’s what makes pets so special. I also like to communicate very directly with the owner in regards to their desires when taking care of their pets. After all, you know best.
About: Hey there, I'm Kayla! I have 12 years of experience sitting dogs, cats, and even leopard geckos for family, friends, and fellow church members. I don't have any fur babies of my own, but am lovingly called the "pet auntie" by my friends. I'd love to be your go-to! I'm a teacher, so my summer schedule is highly flexible to meet the needs of you and your pets! I do stick to Monday-Saturday mornings and afternoons. While I can't keep pets in my own home, I am more than willing to travel to check-in on your pets at home.
About: I’ve had my own dogs since I was 16! I’ve taken care of friends dogs while on deployment, vacation, etc. I enjoy being in the company of animals and would be grateful to take care of yours! I am a stay-at-home mom and full time online student and would love to spend some time with our furry friends while I am on summer break from school. I’m available every weekday afternoon and evening and all day on weekends. I have a huge fenced in backyard for your dog/s to play. I also have two toddlers who love dogs, if your dog doesn’t care for kiddos I can keep them separated!
About: I adore dogs. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have house broken puppies and taken care of senior dogs and all ages in between. I know how to give medication to dogs, both oral and injections. I love playing with dogs and taking them outside to run around! I used to volunteer at the Humane Society and took care of the dogs there. I also fostered dogs until they could be placed in a good home. I have a part time job with flexible hours so I’m free a lot. I can usually take a new pet sitting job on one day notice. I’ll take very good care of your fur babies! I will feed them, take them out for walks and potty breaks, give treats as allowed and play with them as much as they want. If they let me I’ll snuggle with them too! I also take care of cats and I’ll feed them, scoop litter boxes, give treats as allowed, play with them and snuggle if they let me. I also have a lot of experience with smaller animals like rabbits, hamsters, gerbils, Guinea pigs, and fancy rats! I can feed them, clean their cages and play with them if it’s ok with the owner. I have experience giving oral medication and injections to smaller animals. I can take care of birds and fish as well. I will give your babies loads of attention and affection! We will have fun together! If I’m house sitting I’ll be glad to water plants and bring your mail in if you want. I’ll take pictures of your fur babies every day and send them to you, whether I’m there for a drop in visit or house sitting.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for family members, friends, friends of friends and strangers for years! I grew up with dogs and cats in my household. I have experience with multiple animals at one time in addition to strict diet and medication schedules. I have a flexible schedule so I’m able to accommodate your animals needs at any given time! My biggest concern as a pet owner is leaving my pet with someone that doesn’t love my animal as much as me. I can assure you that your pet will be the center of my attention when I’m with them. I believe in treating people the way they want to be treated and I’ll be sure to make your animal feel loved while you’re away. As a fully remote worker, pet care easily fits into my daily and weekly routine. I am available to care for your animal as needed, providing responsible and attentive care. As a remote worker, I offer pet care services in the client's home. My flexible schedule allows me to provide attentive care and meet their pet's specific needs.
About: Because I work remotely, pets are rarely left alone for long periods of time. I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages and energy levels... from a senior dog who became blind and deaf, which taught me patience and gentle, consistent care, to my current puppy, where I focus on training, routine, exercise, and positive reinforcement for high-energy needs. I also have two cats with very different personalities, so I am very attentive to body language and always respect each pet’s comfort level, allowing them to warm up at their own pace. I work remotely and am home throughout the day. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship without dogs being left alone for long periods. My mornings usually start with feeding and a walk or outdoor time. Throughout the day, I schedule additional walks, play sessions, and enrichment based on each dog’s energy level and needs. Because I’m home, I can easily adjust my schedule for puppies, senior dogs, or dogs who need extra attention or routine. I make sure routines stay consistent from day to day so dogs feel comfortable, secure, and at home. Dog care isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s part of my everyday life. My goal is always to provide a safe, attentive, and loving environment where dogs feel happy and well cared for. I take safety, trust, and comfort very seriously and always care for pets as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine while providing a calm, secure environment. In my home, pets are closely supervised and never left unattended for long periods of time. Because I work remotely, I’m able to be present throughout the day to monitor behavior, provide regular potty breaks, walks, and attention, and ensure pets are comfortable and relaxed. I keep my space clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, and I’m careful to follow any household rules provided by owners. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions closely. I make sure doors and gates are secure, food and medications are given as directed, and pets receive the level of interaction and exercise they’re used to. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy and communicate updates promptly. My goal is always to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets feel secure and owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.
About: Growing up, I have always been surrounded by dogs and cats along with any other pet you can think of. My first job was pet/house sitting for a family friend every other month. Now that I am older, I recently adopted a dog of my own! I love taking her on walks, playing, and going to trails and taking her hiking with me! I also have experience with farm animals such as chickens, goats, rabbits, horses, pigs, and even donkeys! I currently work part time and go to college so there is plenty of time to ensure proper attention and play with your pets! I am available early mornings and throughout the day depending on work and school schedule. I am more than willing to accommodate differentiating schedules. I crate trained my puppy and she has acclimated very well. I will make sure to follow all pet parents schedules and preferences whether that be crate training or free roam.
