House Sitting Willard

“Laura is awesome and my pups had the BEST time with her! She is so genuine and caring, which made it so comfortable to leave for the weekend.”

About: I enjoy taking active dogs for long walks & runs! No issue providing meds & special attention for older fellas/ladies. I have sat for cats for extended stays as well. Happy to do so again! I work remote 3-5 days a week so I can take breaks to walk your dogs or give them a potty break a few times per day, including midday. I currently have no pets at home, however I grew up with 2-3 dogs and a cat for 18 years. I'll love taking your dog for long walks/runs if they need it! I am happy to care for special needs animals or those who require medications at each meal. Just send me your instructions and I'll treat them as you would! I am open to sitting cats, but would consider myself a dog person.

“Allen was great! I needed a last minute sitter and Allen was the perfect choice. Great communication and put up with my silly dogs with no complaints. Left my house in great condition. I look forward to having him stay with my beasties again. Thank you so much! 💜”

“I could not recommend Kelsey enough! She took great care of my senior dog in my home for a weekend. She was very communicative and sent me pictures throughout her stay. I will definitely have her watch my dog again!”

About: Hey, I’m Cassidy! I worked as a Veterinary Assistant for over 5 years before transitioning into pet sitting full time, and I’ve cared for animals my entire life. Between my vet assistant background, my own pets, and years of hands-on pet care, I’m comfortable caring for pups and kitties of different ages, sizes, personalities, routines, and medical needs. I currently offer house sitting and drop-in visits, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own home while still getting the care, attention, and routine they’re used to. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, meals, medication, snuggles, potty breaks, or just a calm presence while you’re away, I’ll do my best to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and your home. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, keep you updated with photos and messages, and help with small home tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, or keeping things tidy while you’re gone. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pets. I want them to feel like their routine stayed familiar, their needs were met, and they had a friend looking out for them the whole time. Feel free to reach out with any questions or details about your pet’s routine- I’d love to learn more about them and see if we’d be a good fit! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. For house sitting, I’m able to spend plenty of time with your pets in their own home and keep their routine as normal as possible. For drop-in visits, I make sure each visit includes whatever your pet needs most — meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, litter box care, or just some extra love and attention. I do step out for errands, appointments, and occasional outings, but I always plan my schedule around the pets in my care and their specific needs. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently house sitting and drop-in visits and I love that this allows pets to stay in their familiar environment, stick to their normal routines, and feel more comfortable while their people are away. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely and treat your space with respect. I’m mindful with doors, gates, leashes, feeding routines, medications, and any house rules you have in place. During outdoor time, I always keep a close eye on pets, whether we’re going for a walk, having supervised yard time, or taking a quick potty break. My goal is to keep your pets safe, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind with updates along the way.

About: Hi! I’m Mia! I’ve been dog sitting for 6 years now. I’m compassionate, kind and caring towards all animals. Over the years I’ve gained experience with all sizes of dogs, making sure they are loved, comfortable, feel safe, and get the attention they deserve when their pawernts are out of town. I’ll keep you updated and send pictures of your furry babies. From dog sitting to dog walking I’ll treat your furry baby like they were my own with quality time and give them all the snuggles and treats. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I currently work at a daycare from 7-4 Monday- Friday. I’m available after 5pm for dog walking and anytime during the week for dog sitting in your home. I will ask what routine you have already set in place and follow that. To ensure your furry friends are comfortable, safe, and kept on routine. With additional snuggles and walks too :)

“Abby was a fantastic sitter for our Mastiff Theo AND my house was spotless when I came home. Thank you Abby for taking care of Theo over Thanksgiving weekend. Having you there made me feel extremely comfortable knowing he was in excellent care.”

“Alissa is amazing! She did a great job taking care of our dog, Red. She went above and beyond to make sure he felt loved and safe. Red was relaxed and happy when we came home from a 10 day vacation!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals of different species, breeds, and temperaments! I love learning the personalities and quirks from our furry, scaled, and feathered friends! I also had the privilege of attending and graduating from an accredited Veterinary Technician program and am licensed as an RVT. I work full time in a veterinary practice but I am fully available on weekends and available after 6:30pm during the week. I am available for overnight stays as well with appropriate notice. I am fully adaptable to your pets routine and needs whether that be leashed walks or supervised play in a fenced yard. I enjoy playing with cats! My experience in veterinary medicine has given me the confidence to work with more nervous pets as well.

About: I have been a dogsitter for about 6 years. I grew up with 4 dogs in my household. My grandparents were my next door neighbors and they had 5 dogs. I work full time at UNCW as a Parking Enforcement Officer. I normally work 7-4. After work I will spend time with your pets and I am off weekends where I can spend all day with them. I live in a gated area. I have a big back yard they could run around and I also live by the water if they like water!

“Amanda did great! We had her house sit and watch our dog over the weekend and she kept great care of our pet and the house! Highly recommend her!”

About: I can’t remember an age where I wasn’t helping birth and raise kittens and puppies, turtles, or rodents. From having blind, toothless senior chihuahuas and senile cats…to a litter of brand new pups or kittens struggling to catch their first breath I’ve been part of it. I’ve had several rodents and reptiles, and cared for my friends and family birds as well. Trained puppies and kittens to use the potty and more. Also helped with a few farm animals too. I work only 20-25hrs a week, so I’ll always be home within 6hours or less. Outside of work, I’m home hanging out with my kids and furbabies. I have two e.s.a. Certified cats who tend to hide away when someone new is here. I’ve had them both since babies (13y & 3y). Keep things clean, organized, healthy, I had a cleaning company too. I don’t have crates on hand or an outside fence but I have a huge yard, the neighbor has a spayed female American bulldog, very friendly. There are farm animals next door. However, I do appreciate being where the pet is comfortable and knows its space.

“Blair was wonderful. This is the first time using her. ( she lives next door so it was extremely convenient). We've had the puppies for a month, this was the 1st time leaving them. They warmed up to real quick. Followed instructions. Will definitely use her again.”

“My cat, who is normally shy with people, felt comfortable with Shawn right away. He spent a lot of quality time with her and I could tell through the photos he sent that she was relaxed and content. He was also prompt in communicating by text. Shawn has a great rapport with animals and I would definitely hire him again in the future.”

“Jenna was great with my Rue girl. She even gave her a bath and trimmed her grinch toes😊 The house was neat and tidy and pets& plants were happy, fed and watered. Will definitely hire Jenna the next time I need to be away for a few nights.”

About: I have 3 years of personal experience taking care and watching animals especially dogs. I have a black lab who I love dearly and I will love your pets like they are my own. I also have experience of watching more than one dog at the same time. I have grown up with dogs and have been around dogs my whole life. I will take your dogs on long walks and play ball or frisbee with your dog if that is something they will like to do. Also if your dog needs to be brushed I will also brush your dog too. And last I am a very reliable and responsible person and I will make sure your pets are safe and taken care of. I work from home so I have a very flexible schedule and I am able to leave and go any time I need too. I am available all the time. I care for a 6 year old black lab who I have had since he was 3 months old and he has a structured routine but also gets lots of treats and bones. I will care and treat your pets as if they are my own.

About: i’ve always had a passion for animals. i try to make sure all animals are happy and loved by me especially when taking care of them. i never want an animal to feel sad or alone and it pains me to see all these stray cats and dogs around knowing that i can’t take them all in. I recently graduated from Coastal Carolina from the veterinary assistant program, i plan on fulfilling my dreams on becoming a veterinarian and hopefully one day i can save the lives of animals. I will give them lots of attention, i will try to play with the pets. i will give them lots of cuddles and affection and overall make sure they know they are loved.

“Great services”

“Lexi did a great job housesitting while we were away. We came back to a tidy house and two happy dogs who seemed to have been well taken care of. We would be happy to work with her again for pet care :)”
