“Christelle and her family were amazing with our 2 pups. I love that the kids gave my attention loving dogs all the love they needed while we were gone.

About: When your dog stays with us, they are not simply being watched. They are being cared for by a professional training team with 17 years of hands-on experience behind every decision we make. We are not pet sitters. We are credentialed dog trainers who have worked with severe aggression cases, fearful rescues, feral dogs requiring full rehabilitation, sport and competition dogs, working breeds, and restricted breeds. We hold an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator certification, are Pet CPR certified, and carry multiple professional accreditations earned across nearly two decades in this field. We volunteer regularly with local shelters and are frequently called in for dogs that require serious structure and specialized handling. Puppies, reactive dogs, anxious dogs, large breeds, and dogs with behavioral challenges are our everyday work, not a weekend hobby. Your dog's stay will not look like a typical boarding experience. Every single day includes a structured walk, focused basic obedience work, and daily photo updates sent directly to you. Our home has a dedicated trainer on property the majority of the day, with no more than a one to two hour window where dogs may be unsupervised. Evenings include an additional hands-on family member who is active with the dogs. Dogs board in a true home environment with free roam of the house, access to three twin dog beds, multiple elevated cots, rugs throughout, and a doggy door. Our yard is just over half an acre, fully enclosed with a six-foot fence on all sides, double lined on most sides with a buffer between. We have three designated outdoor spaces: an AstroTurf yard, a dedicated potty area, and a large open yard for running and play. Our six resident dogs are spayed, neutered, fully vaccinated, and current on all preventatives. They have lived alongside boarding guests for years and are social, settled, and genuinely enjoy new company. We accept a maximum of four boarding dogs at one time so every guest receives real attention, real structure, and real care. If you want your dog to come home having had a genuinely enriching experience in the hands of professional trainers, you are in the right place. We are not just pet sitters.

“Best dog sitter I’ve had in all my years on Rover! She went above and beyond in every way with updates and care for my dog. Highly recommended!”

“Our first time using Rover and we managed to get the best sitter, first try! I've no doubt in my mind that Vlad thoroughly enjoyed his stay with Megan and her family. The daily updates and photos were proof! Megan has my highest recommendation for your doggies needs.”

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. Through my veterinary class, I learned how to recognize behavior cues, signs of distress, and how to keep pets safe, calm, and cared for. I also gained experience grooming and handling dogs with gentleness and patience. On top of that, I cared for my own dog for nine amazing years—he taught me that love, trust, and attention make all the difference. I’m a full-time student Monday through Friday, but I get out early on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I’m available for afternoon and evening visits those days. I’m also fully available on weekends, and Saturdays and Sundays are my most flexible days. If you ever need a specific time, feel free to message me I’m happy to work with your schedule! When I visit your home or take your pet on a walk, safety is my top priority. I follow your routine exactly — feeding, potty breaks, and any special instructions you have. I always make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are secure before heading out. On walks, I stay alert to other animals and keep your pet close and comfortable. I take time to learn each pet’s personality so they feel safe, calm, and cared for while you’re away.

“Ashley took great care of our 2 dogs. Her home is located 20 minutes from the beach house we rented at Top Sail. We will use her again with confidence.”

About: I have a fairly large background in animal care, it has always been a passion of mine - specifically dogs & horses. I take pride in how well I care for animals. I do not have a fenced yard yet but the dogs will be strictly supervised on a leash when outside of my home. I have 1.2 acres and a great neighborhood for walks. I will gladly work on in home manners with your dog/s while in my care as I believe training should be daily and enjoyable! I work part time and also own a photography business so my schedule is pretty flexible for dog sitting. I do this primarily cause my dog loves to have a friend over and since we are out in the country there are not too many other dogs for her to play with nearby. - Dogs are ALWAYS supervised and on a leash when outside of my house. - Dogs must be up to date on all shots. - Dogs are to be crated when my direct attention is not on them or if I need to go run a quick errand. This is never for longer than 2 hours. I have two large crates. - Dogs are crated at bed time. Usually around 9pm-7am. This may vary depending on dog's usual schedule. - Dogs have daily individualized walks. - I will help instill everyday manners & any sort of training help you may need. - Of course treats & cuddles daily! - I have a TON of references, you may ask me for the list!

About: I got my first dog as a gift on my first birthday. He was a black lab, and I fell in love immediately. We grew up together and he was with me for 17 years. Throughout my life, my family has also had a miniature schnauzer and a German shepherd/black lab mix. We were a big pet household, having a bunny rabbit, fish, hamster, and Guinea pig! In addition, I have two chocolate labs of my own! Bleu (girl) is 4 and Lottie (boy) is 2. They are truly my world, and I think all animals are family! I have been around animals my whole life. I absolutely love them all! My fiance and I both work from home full-time, so we are at home with our fur babies all day. Happy to provide care in my home, as long as they are friendly with my dogs. I have a decent amount of flexibility in my schedule that will allow me to come for walks, check-ins, etc as needed. I have two fur babies that absolutely love other dogs. We have a large, fenced in yard that we spend hours a day throwing balls and getting all the zoomies out. Happy to do also do drop in visits in your home / take for walks and play as needed.

About: I have been around pets my whole life! I have taken care of each and every pet I’ve had. I have always had either a dog or cat in my house. And each of my family members have had pets that I have been around as well. I also use to volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, where I cared for injured animals. I have my own mini farm, where I have pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and turkeys! So if you need any of those types of animals cared for I can do that too! I have a very flexible schedule so I basically have the whole day to come take care of any pets! I have plenty of time to come and hang out with your furry family! I have four loving dogs that get outside all day long because I have so much time during the day and a very large fenced in backyard. We go on walks all the time! We can have a pet play date if your pet likes other dogs. If you need your pet needs to crated, I can do that. If they need soothing music put on, I can do that too!
