“A true blessing! She works so well with our pup and takes wonderful care of him. She is great at communicating and quick to respond. Couldn’t recommend her any more!”

About: I grew up with dogs all my life. I have 6 labrador retrievers and have experience in breeding, training, and caring for puppies. I am also experienced in providing special needs care including meds, shots, and injury care. My schedule is very flexible. I am currently available throughout the day. I am also currently a student at Appalachian State University and have the free time to provide care for your pets. I always try my best to accommodate pets' routines. I like to make sure that both cats and dogs are comfortable, happy, and safe in the client's home while I am providing care.
About: I have taken care of my friends and families dogs for years and I genuinely love being active and would love to help you with your pups! I am able to walk and take care of your fur babies daily and weekly. I have an 8 year old son who enjoys being active too. I will give your pets lots of walks on the greenway and cuddle them at night. Provide me with details and we will make sure they are cared for.
About: I have always loved pets so was always willing to help watch friends and families pets. I have watched both peoples cats and dogs and even snakes. I have majority of my days free. I like to get outside often when getting away from doing work. I am usually up fairly early and sometimes late so if a last minute walk is needed i’m your gal. Depending on the dog depends on how i care for them. If they are more playful we will go outside and play with toys but if it is a older dog that doesn’t do much we can just hangout and relax.

Personally our dog free roams and out cats have their room if needed.

About: With an extensive animal care and sitting background, I bring thoughtful service to all my clients. If you're looking for someone responsible and loving with high energy pets, elderly pets who may need medication, or anything in between, look no further. I'm also happy to take on plant care, aquarium maintenance, bringing in mail, etc. I'm pleased to offer drop in visits where possible as well as home stays. I book meet and greets with clients to find out all the details, and encourage open communication. If you have any questions or would like to set up a meeting, please don't hesitate to send me a message. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I generally have a pretty flexible schedule! We will set up expectations for your pet care and staying in touch in advance of each sit. :) I am big on photos, updates, and good communication in general. It is common to hear from me every day, with a multitude of photos.
About: 💗 Experienced, Compassionate Pet Care From Someone Who Truly Understands Animals 💗 Hi! My name is Lindsay, and caring for animals has been a huge part of my life for over 9 years. What started as something I naturally loved doing for family, friends, neighbors, and their pets has grown into my full-time passion and business, Pawley’s Pet Services. I’m currently continuing my education and training to become a dog trainer and intuitive animal counselor, which has given me an even deeper interest in understanding animals not just physically, but emotionally and behaviorally as well. I love taking the time to learn who each pet truly is — their personality, communication style, routines, fears, favorite activities, and what makes them feel safe and comfortable. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, including energetic puppies, large dogs, senior pets, shy or anxious animals, rescue pets, and multi-pet households. 🐶 Puppies & Young Dogs I understand how much attention and consistency puppies need. I’m happy to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, exercise, feeding according to schedule, and plenty of one-on-one attention while helping maintain their normal routine. 🐕 Senior Dogs Senior pets deserve patience, gentleness, and extra understanding. I’m comfortable adapting walks and activities to their energy levels, providing companionship, following medication instructions when needed, and making sure they remain comfortable and cared for. 🐱 Cats & Kittens I absolutely love cats, too! I’m comfortable caring for kittens, senior cats, shy cats, independent cats, and cats who need medication or additional attention. Whether your cat wants interactive play, enrichment, cuddles, or simply someone nearby for quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are. 🐾 Large & Multiple Pets I’m very comfortable with larger dogs and have personally had experience caring for multiple large dogs at once. I’m also experienced with multi-pet households and understand the importance of giving each animal individual attention while keeping everyone’s routines consistent. 💊 Medication & Special Care I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and administering oral medications to dogs and cats when needed. I understand that some pets require additional patience, monitoring, or specialized routines, and I’m happy to discuss their individual needs during a meet & greet. My experience includes: • Dog walking and exercise • Drop-in visits • Overnight/in-home pet sitting • Puppy and senior pet care • Cat and kitten care • Oral medication administration • Feeding and medication schedules • Potty breaks and enrichment • Caring for multiple pets • Large and energetic dogs • Shy, anxious, and rescue animals • Maintaining pets’ normal routines • Frequent photo and video updates One of the most important parts of my care is getting to know each animal as an individual. I don’t believe there is one perfect approach to every pet. Some animals want constant play and attention, while others need space, patience, and time to warm up. I pay close attention to their body language and behavior so I can meet them where they are. My training in dog behavior and intuitive animal counseling is something I’m especially passionate about because I want to understand the why behind an animal’s behavior rather than simply reacting to it. I’m always learning more about canine behavior, communication, enrichment, and the emotional needs of animals so I can continue providing better care. 📸 You’ll Never Have to Wonder How Your Pets Are Doing I send regular photo and video updates throughout my visits and stays. I know how difficult it can be to leave your pets behind, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re safe, happy, loved, and receiving plenty of attention. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I also treat your space with respect. I’m happy to follow household routines and instructions, bring in mail or packages, water plants, and help make sure everything is secure while you’re away. My goal isn’t simply to be the person who feeds your pets while you’re gone. I want to become someone your pets recognize, trust, and genuinely enjoy seeing — and someone you feel comfortable calling whenever you need dependable care. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members and learn what makes them special. 💗 Pet care is more than just a job to me—it’s something I’m genuinely passionate about and dedicate my time to every day. I run my own pet-care business, so caring for animals is a major part of my daily routine. I’m currently building my experience while studying to become a dog trainer and intuitive animal counselor, and I love being able to apply what I’m learning to the pets I care for. My schedule is flexible and I’m often able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and overnight/in-home care depending on my existing bookings. I do keep a limited number of bookings at a time so that I can give each pet the individual attention they deserve rather than overbooking myself. I’m especially interested in building long-term relationships with families who need recurring walks, drop-ins, or regular pet care. I’m happy to discuss availability in advance and work with each family to find a routine that works well for both them and their pets. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, understood, and loved while their families are away. For dogs, this can include walks, potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, feeding according to their schedule, fresh water, and plenty of one-on-one attention. For cats, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, medication when needed, playtime, enrichment, or quiet companionship depending on their personality. I’m currently studying to become a dog trainer and intuitive animal counselor, so I pay close attention to animal behavior and body language. I believe understanding why an animal is behaving a certain way is an important part of providing good care. I’m patient with shy, nervous, anxious, energetic, senior, and rescue animals and always allow them to adjust at their own pace. A Note About Meet & Greets and Overnight Stays: For safety reasons, my fiancé, Bradley, normally accompanies me to my meet & greets and stays with me for every overnight pet-sitting booking. This is an important part of my personal safety policy when I’m staying in a client’s home while they’re away. I want to be completely transparent about this upfront so every family knows who may be present in their home. Bradley is my fiancé and safety companion, while I remain the primary person responsible for your pets and their care. I’m always happy to discuss this with you before booking and make sure everyone is comfortable with the arrangement. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their established routines and respect their space and belongings. I’m also happy to follow household instructions, bring in mail or packages, water plants, and help keep the home secure while you’re away. I send regular photo and video updates so you can see how your pets are doing and feel confident that they’re receiving the care and attention they deserve. I want your pets to feel comfortable and cared for in their own home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in loving, attentive hands.
About: Caring for children has been my career for over 15 years. Working in education, I know that trust isn't given, its earned through consistency, communication and genuine care. While my professional background is with children, the same qualities I bring to families everyday are exactly what I'll bring to your dog: patience, attention to detail and a calm caring presence. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy dog and have complete peace of mind knowing they were treated like one of my own. My schedule offers flexibility, which allows me to fit pet care into my week while giving each dog the attention they deserve. Some days I’m available earlier than others, and weekends are generally more open. I believe pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll always be upfront about my availability and make sure I can fully commit before accepting a booking. When your dog is in my care, they’ll have my full attention, plenty of affection, and dependable care every step of the way. I know that trusting someone with your dog is a big decision, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. Whether your dog is staying in my home or joining me for a walk, their safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, keep routines as consistent as possible, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in caring, dependable hands. My goal is to create a calm, welcoming environment where your dog feels loved, secure, and right at home. No other pets in the home. Non-smoking home. Plenty of space for walks and play. Only one family’s dog(s) at a time

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my natural ability to understand a dog’s demeanor and adapt to each dog’s individual personality and needs. As a dog owner myself, I have hands-on experience caring for and training two dogs. I successfully potty-trained both of my dogs and taught them a variety of tricks, commands, and skills. My patience, attentiveness, and ability to build trust with animals allow me to provide personalized, compassionate care for every dog I look after. Currently I am in school part time so I have plenty of time to play with pups and give them a happy, healthy, fun day away from their family. I have two friendly pups Oreo and Ozzie that loves all animals and caring for our pups is an important responsibility because they depend on us for their health, safety, and happiness. Dogs provide unconditional love and companionship, so they deserve to be treated with the same kindness and care they give to us. That’s how I care for all animals. I truly am a lover of all pets.
