House Sitting In Whiteston, NC

“Anna was absolutely wonderful! She was very friendly and highly skilled with caring for dogs, Anna stayed at my house while I was away, and she bonded with my dog instantly. I was completely impressed with her ability to interact and connect with my dog. Anna was really good with following through with my requests regarding my dogs diet, and she followed up with me right away with any concerns. Anna is very reliable, trustworthy and honest, I highly recommend Anna to care for anyone’s pets. And FYI, she also willingly and lovingly cared for and fed my bird. Leaving my dog is hard for me, my heart aches to leave him behind, I never imagined I would find someone who could love my dog much ad I do, but Anna 100% exceeded my expectations.”

“Brittany is awesome and she is my new go to when I need my dog looked after. I recently moved to the area and have been looking for someone to look after my dog when I have to travel. She kept in constant communication with me; provided photos and videos daily; and even picked up an Easter gift for him.”

“Christine has sat for us now three times and she always does a great job. She genuinely loves animals and we trust her immensely with our two rescue pups.”

“Angie house sit for my 14 week old puppy while I was at the conference for 4 days. I was very impressed by how much she was attentive to my puppy, letting me know how he was doing on a regular basis, and even training him a few commands. I came home, finding much better-behaving dog, and her notes about what she observed about my dog and suggestions. My puppy and I definitely look forward to seeing her again!”

“Once again, Andrea was an amazing farm sitter! I have 100% confidence in her watching our animals, and love the daily pictures and updates. She went over and above to make sure they had what they wanted and needed. I don’t know that I could use anyone else after having her watch over our homestead. Thank you, Andrea!”

About: == FULL TIME DOGGIE DAYCARE AND BOARDING! == Thank you for stopping by! Please read on to learn more about how we got started in the pet care business. == ABOUT US == We are a military family full of dog lovers (who isn't) and have been since we were children. This journey started after volunteering for a few months at a local humane society and wanting to spend more of our time with dogs. Since starting our Rover journey, we have been trusted with the privilege of caring for many of our friends' and family's dogs. With us, you can be sure that your dog will be in the hands of someone who enjoys dogs and their loving nature! == MEET AND GREETS == We personally do not require meet and greets but are more than willing to accomodate your request to have one, as we understand and value a mutually harmonious fit between all parties. Meet and greets will take place in the front yard and be limited to 10-15 minutes. Also, please know that we do not give tours due to liability reasons, however there are pictures on our profile to reference if needed. Our home is spacious, safe, secure and clean! PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: Daycare rates cover up to 12 hours ( pricing can be adjusted for half days etc) Boarding rates covers 24 hours *If a daycare stay exceeds 12 hours, additional rates will be automatically applied. **If a boarding stay exceeds 24 hours by more than 2 hours, additional rates will be automatically applied. ***A convenience fee of $10 will be applied to any drop off or pick up prior to 7am. Please note that any photos and updates will be sent between the hours of 9am -9pm. If you have any further questions that were not answered here, please feel free to reach out to us. Thanks for reading and we hope to meet you and your best friend! == SCHEDULE == Our family is are full time dog sitters (spouse, mother in-law) and Eric still works his full time job in the military typically 8am-2pm. We are committed to have a dog loving and caring life while balancing our "weekends". We are typically able to accommodate changes in your schedule/needs to adjust pick up and drop off times. Please let us know as soon as possible about any adjustments needed. == DURING YOUR PUPS STAY == Upon a dog's first arrival, we strictly monitor their interactions with any other dog to be aware of any dynamics we need to be concerned about. We do not hesitate to separate dogs into different play areas if anything seems off. Our property is fully fenced on all sides, and we have gates to keep even the best escape artist pups safe. Dogs have full access to our entire downstairs which open up to a well-maintained fenced in yard. == FEEDING == During feeding time, your dog will fed in their crate or a play pen area to prevent food aggression and upset stomachs caused by consuming foreign dog food of other pups. == SLEEPING == Crate-trained dogs will sleep in crates (please specify if your dog is used to a certain size, as we have a wide variety of sizes available. Dogs who are not crate trained will sleep in a pen. Special accommodations can be made for dogs who are not able to do either of those. == WALKS == While it is our goal to make sure each dog get proper exercise and socialization, we do not provide walks during boarding due to liability and risk factors involved with walks (dogs escaping from harness, eating something off the side walk, coming into contact with an unfriendly dog, etc). We do, however give them plenty of outdoor time with the other dogs or solo to socialize and play, which we find is ample exercise for the pups that stay with us. REQUESTED INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR PET Prior to dropping off, please fill out your dog's bio as much as possible. == THINGS WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR DOG == -Is your pup sick and/or contagious? -Quirks or habits that would be helpful to know (humping, chewing on paws, separation anxiety, excessive barking, etc). -Current or past illnesses, injuries, or traumatic history/triggers. -If they are taking any medication or require any special care instructions. -Is your pup up to date on vaccinations and flea & tick medication. We understand vaccines are not bulletproof and that some illnesses may have an extended incubation period but we highly recommend the vaccines to create the safest experience. *Please know that we are unable to care for sick/contagious dogs. If your pup shows any signs of disease or illness, please let us know beforehand so we can make sure you receive a proper refund. If we discover that your pup is exhibiting obvious symptoms of disease with the first 12 hours with us, your dog will need to be picked up and no refund will be issued. I work 2-3 days a week.

About: I have always been surrounded by animals from a young age. I now live in a home with 6 dogs! I have been in the veterinary industry for 2 years, with the hope of it becoming a career. I currently work a full-time at a veterinary hospital. My job is an 8-5 but if your babies are not used to that schedule then I am willing to accommodate to them! In my client's, I prioritize pets' well-being by ensuring they receive proper nutrition, regular exercise, grooming, and veterinary care. I provide companionship and mental stimulation through play and interaction, maintaining a safe, comfortable environment. I also follow specific care routines, respecting each pet's unique needs.

About: Putting pets and their people at ease with reliable, conscientious care. I have over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience, caring for a variety of animals including cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, and even otters. Since 2014, I’ve consistently provided daily care that includes feeding, walking, grooming, training, administering medications, and maintaining clean living environments. I currently own a Belgian Malinois and two Persian cats, which has given me extensive experience with high-energy and high-maintenance breeds. My background includes not only routine care, but also behavioral training and attention to the unique needs of each species, demonstrating both responsibility and a strong passion for animal welfare. I’m a military spouse, at the moment I’m going to be available any time of the day and night. Text and calls are available all week 24/7. Also I’m I full time mom, I have a 3 year old boy, he is always with me, that’s why I choose this job so I can have the opportunity to work choosing my own schedule. He is a sweet boy. I don’t have a fence at my home, but I always take my dog on a leash outdoors for a potty break and also to have a time for a walk.

About: I have taken care of several dogs growing up. I always hit it off with pets from the first time meeting them that people say “Have you met them before?” I love the good energy dogs always give off. I am a healthy active person so I will be able to keep up with energetic dogs but I’m also a laid back person so if you dog just wants to chill k can do that too!! I currently work part time on my own schedule so I have plenty of time to play with your dogs. I am active and work out 5-6 times a week so if you want your dog to get a run in I can do that as well. Anyway they need it. Rather it be playing or walking or cleaning whatever. I will stay in designated areas and will not over step any boundaries set

“Trez’Sheer did an excellent job watching my dog. Moose is complicated; he is a senior dog with many special needs. He is a fully blind, partially deaf dog with anxiety. He also takes nighty medication. Trez’Sheer handled all his needs well. She communicated with me daily and quickly whenever I reached out to check in. She stayed in my home, kept my house tidy, and treated my home and dog respectfully. I’d use Trez’Sheer’s pet sitting services in the future if she is willing to put up with Moose again. I was anxious about leaving Moose for eight days, but he was in good hands with Trez’Sheer.”

About: I grew up with lots of animals and have plenty of experience. I have experience with senior animals. I have some experience in dog training as I trained my Labrador Retriever as a puppy in doggie obedience school. My Lab is now currently a senior doggie. We breed and raise pedigreed Mini Rex, and pedigreed Netherland Dwarf bunnies for showing and pets. My husband also has experience working with a vet some years ago, as well as experience in dog breeding. I homeschool a preteen and teenager. I'll be able to look after your pet so he or she will not have to stay crated all alone at home. Can provide frequent potty breaks for your pets. Our dogs stay on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. We do have some caged pets but they will be in a separate part of the house during boarding 🙂

“Tyler did a great job watching Reba, keeping me informed of how she was doing and sending lots of pictures.”

About: I have lived on a farm and taken care of multiple farm animals as well as watched peoples dogs of different sizes. I love to match the energy in the room and look to adapt to make the experience the most comfortable. I am currently flexible as I take gigs one at a time. I will prioritize this job to make sure each animal has the best care. I will listen to instructions and take care of your pet wherever needed. I am aware of fences, doors, and other infrastructure necessary to keep animals safe.

“When I got home, I could tell my dogs were very well taken care of! They loved it! Rebecca was so professional and sent photos of the doggies while I was out of town! I will definitely be using Rebecca again for the amazing service my dogs received!”

Tyler B.

About: I’ve lived around dogs(all types of breeds and temperaments) for over 35+ years. Family and friends have relied on me to watch their fur babies. I currently work full time, but I am home by 3:30 every day. Weekends are wide open. I pride myself on being flexible and responsible. I’ve cared for a variety of pets : hamsters, rabbits, cats, dogs, and even horses. I take care of your four legged children while you are busy with life. Rest assured they will be loved in your absence.

“We are so happy with our experience with Sarah H. we have already booked her again! She took great care of our dogs and our house!!! I am so grateful to have found someone I can trust! Our dogs loved her!!!”

Valerie S.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 16 years old. I have experience with anything from home sitting, check in visits, as well as providing animals with medication needs. I love animals and look forward to meeting your sweet fur babies. I currently work at chowan hospital 5 days a week from 8:30 to 5:30 as a occupational therapy assistant. I am free most afternoons and most weekends. Unfortunately I am not able to bring your pets home, but I am more then happy to help make you and your pets life easier.

About: As a stay at home and home school mom there is usually always someone home to love and play with our (your) animals. We have two daughters (17 & 15) and one son (10). *I’ve recently updated this profile to include the following: As an owner to two small dogs myself, I understand the worry and anxiety of leaving my small, fragile, pup, in the care of others who may have larger dogs coming and going where an accident can happen. I don’t like to take chances with one of my own, or one of yours getting hurt. Even by accident. I’ve recently updated my profile to only accept dogs up to a certain pound. This will help with my profile score, for the many dogs I’ve had to turn down. However, if you are a prior client, I will accept your larger dog (they’ve all been wonderful and fine because of my judgement at meet and greet) and in addition any future clients who have a small dog/big dog combo, I will consider a meet and greet to verify we would be a good fit and will make exceptions on a case by case. I will not be sitting for more than one family at a time. I’d like to advertise our service as a small dog oasis. We have tons of toys, treats, dogs beds, and love to offer to spoil and keep your little ones happy and safe. I know the peace and ease of mind I offer will stand out. I send pictures, and/or videos, daily, unless you ask me not to. I will also FaceTime you with your pet, upon request. * We have a 5 year old, 10lb Maltipoo, who acts more like an indoor cat, (sleeps a lot) and follows me everywhere, a 9 month old, 7lb, Malshi (Maltese Shitzu), who is a baby and wants to play with her toys all the time. We also have a 4 year old yellow lab, Sam, who acts like a lab. Aren’t they all full of energy? Sam likes to stay outside and loves his job as a guardian dog to our miniature goats. He comes in for freezing temperatures, over night to sleep, or heat advisories only. He’d rather be outside. All three get along with ALL animals, strays, neighbor’s yorkies’, neighbors dogs, etc. We have two acres of yard with a fenced in area that has a dog house, goat house, tree house, etc. which is where he stays. We are an animal loving family. No young kids that harm or hurt in any way. Your pets are guaranteed a “spoiled rotten” experience for sure. Schedule We are home most of the time. We let the pups run around and play inside. We prefer inside dogs over outside dogs, but will take the dogs outside many, many times to walk, run, and play. Just I inform us of their home habits of how often they like to go out. Safety, trust & environment- I am highly protective over the dogs well being. Safety and emotionally. We use leashes when walking/running your dog and to let them out to use the bathroom. Dogs are fed at separate locations to ensure no jealousy and fights. Not to mention stolen food and a hungry pup. The dogs we sit for sleep in the master bedroom. We sleep with the door shut. This is to ensure we can always have eyes and ears on your pup. No accidents or trouble to get into. They seem to like having the constant company around them, even if we are asleep, they know they’re not alone.
