“We have booked Ksenia multiple times and have had the best service with her! She does an incredible job taking care of our little four legged friend. We will book her again in the future for sure!”
“Carmen was the utmost professional and Kenzie and Fox loved her. She sent me great pictures and I think, they were sad when she didn't come back. I am so glad I found Carmen on this site! I will definitely request her services again!”

“Our animals absolutely loved Lauren! This past week, Lauren came to our house to check on our cat Nyx (our dogs were already booked at their usual boarding location). Lauren also graciously brought in our mail, and made sure the house was locked up & safe. We felt very secure in knowing Lauren was checking on our home while we were away. We will definitely be requesting Lauren's help with future trips and dog/cat-sitting needs!”
“Kristie was absolutely wonderful to work with! She treated our little cat like her own. She sent daily updates and photos, and always went above and beyond. She will do an amazing job with your four legged loved ones. We will be using her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of many family and friend pets. I’ve had multiple dogs if my own and currently have a 3 year old Great Dane who I take care of on my own. I’m currently looking for something to do over the summer. I am a college student who needs extra money and loves animals. I would be able to work almost anything into my schedule. I will drop by to feed and play with your pets as much as needed. We will have play dates and can go for walks.
“She was very good to the kitties while she was taking care of them. Everything was squared away when I got back and all directions I left for her were followed. She went beyond by sending cute photos and loving on the kitties while I was away. Definitely will ask Mary again next time I need someone to take care of the kitties.”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats of every kind since I was young. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their pets. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I will have time to play and take care of your pets! I would maybe have to have my daughter with me while checking in, if that’s okay with you. I’m available on weekdays around 10am-7pm, as for weekends, I’m only available on Saturdays at any time. I always make sure that I ask if there’s any specific information/instructions that I’ll need while taking care of the pet. I make sure to let them have some fresh air, along with making sure they’re never uncomfortable, and always secure and happy. I love to have fun, play, interact with them, so that they’re never lonely.
About: Hello! I work at an animal shelter where I handle medical duties, daily feedings, and cleaning. I am in school to achieve a doctorate in veterinary medicine. I am the President of Animal Advocates club on my campus where we frequently volunteer at shelters. I have dog and cat sat at a family friends home on the holidays for years. I have been loving going on walk’s recently and would love a four-legged buddy to join! I overall stay active during the week and relax at home during the evenings so it works for dog walking and sitting! Due to my work experience, I can observe certain behaviors in our four-legged buddies if there is ever any issue and my number one priority will always be the safety and security of the animal.
About: I've had dogs and cats in my life for almost 60 years. I have also rescued multiple dogs. Friends rely on me to help with their animals and am currently providing senior care to my beloved 13 year old shepherd and a friend's 13 year old lab. Can also provide vet references if needed. My schedule is flexible so I can accommodate drop in visits based on the needs of your dogs or cats, including early morning or late night if necessary. I will faithfully follow any instructions you provide to meet your pet's specific needs and will love on and play with them the same way I do my own.
“It was a huge leap of faith for me to leave my two cats in the care of someone I don't know, especially my senior kitty, who is nearly 20 years old and has some special care needs. Christina's veterinary training and the meet-and-greet before we booked instantly lessened my anxiety. She asked all the right questions and gave me confidence that my cats would be well cared for. Her regular check-ins while I was away allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. She went above and beyond caring for my cats, especially my senior, and exceeded my expectations. Christina is truly an animal lover, reliable, trustworthy, and caring. I highly recommend her and would not hesitate to hire her again.”
“Baylee, was a great sitter for my cat! The situation was a little unorthodox and last minute, but she was able to adjust and help me at a moments notice. Sent me updates of my cat everyday and was very quick to respond when I reached out. Would recommend her to anyone in Greenville and surrounding area!”

I’m currently at home with my son for the summer so, I have a consistent schedule to take care of your fur baby! If I do start work it will be from home Food is given twice a day (breakfast and dinner) unless requested more or less by the owner. Potty breaks are consistent here until we finish the floors. For adults I would say potty breaks at average of every 2-3 hours
