House Sitting in Willits-Ochre Hill

“After our first house sitting experience with Grey, he is at the top of our list for dog sitters. At our meet-and-greet, he asked a lot of questions which showed me that he really wants to get everything right and cause as little stress to the dogs (and me) as possible. He is kind, conscientious and seems to truly love dogs. Not only is he good with dogs, he knows how to communicate with humans too! I definitely recommend him for pet sitting.”

“Lillie was great with the dogs! She was reliable and communicative for our overnight booking. She was flexible when my plans changed and even tidied up the house! I left her detailed instructions which she followed seamlessly and she sent plenty of happy and cuddly dog pictures. She has quickly become my go-to sitter that I trust.”

“John-Paul did a great job taking care of our 2 dogs and cat. He was very responsive and sent photo updates regularly!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old and I have grown up with all kinds. I recently created a family with kitties as well and I couldn't be more excited to meet more furry friends! I love caring for my pet—daily walks, playtime, and cuddles make my routine fun and rewarding! 🐾 It’s the best part of my day and always puts me in a great mood. Knowing they’re happy and healthy makes everything worth it! Right now I have a kitty and a goldfish so my home is curated perfectly for little animals to play and cuddle and enjoy all the sights from my windows.

About: I have had and lived with cats and dogs my entire life. I am more knowledgeable and most comfortable with cats, but I have experience taking care of dogs as well. I have experience with administering medicated eye drops, ear drops, and I know how to clean up after pets. I have experience with cats of all ages. I am a current graduate student at Western Carolina University getting myself through the summer with any odd jobs I can acquire. I am also working on my research, so I may be called to work in the lab on WCU's campus on random days. I am not able to take in pets to stay with me, as I live in an apartment complex that has a strict pet policy, and I also have my own pet cat in my space. When visiting pets in their home, I will respect their space and read their body language so as to not make them uncomfortable.

About: Pet sitting and walking was Johanna's full time job in DC and Miami. Sam has been a pet owner and lover from a young age. We both have experience with all size dog breeds, as well as cats, birds, fish, and rodents. Johanna works remotely and is able to be flexible when caring for all your furrbabies. Sam is in college and has a flexible schedule as well. We both grew up with both small dogs and large dogs. We've had Rottweilers, Min Pins, Chihuahuas, Pitbulls and American Bulldogs. We've had cats for over a decade and have fish as well. Unfortunately we're unable to board any pets for now. When caring for your pets we're very mindful of all their needs and prioritize their care.

“Sarah confirmed everything in advance and asked great questions so we were on the same page. She was on time and took great care of my two dogs while we were away for the whole day. She is kind and friendly. We will use her again!”

“Brinkley saved our trip showing up for our pup who doesn’t like to be alone last minute. She kept us up to date the whole time and he loved her.”

Elise C.

“Brooklin was wonderful with my pets!! She took excellent care of them & sent lots of pics/videos, which I appreciated. It’s a huge relief for me to know I could trust her with my babies. I will definitely ask Brooklin to dog/cat sit again.”

About: Hi! We are the Roessler’s. All our friends say we live in a zoo. We love our pets and can’t wait to love yours too! We have 3 dogs (2 small 1 large) 2 cats, 1 fish tanks, a bearded dragon and a parrot! I have grown up my entire life caring for all kinds of animals. From horses, cows, goats, chickens, lizards, turtles, snakes, dogs, cats, parrots, mice, salt and fresh water tanks and a menagerie of other animals. We have a very large yard for pups to run and play. We have two teenage boys. If you want your fur babies to be love while you are away, look no further, the Roessler’s is the place to stay!! We look forward to meeting with you and your furry four legged friend. We send lots of updates and pictures, but if you’d like to see more, please follow us on Tik Tok! roessler.pets.sit Please note: Our yard is fully fenced, however, the fence is 4ft tall. If your dog has hops our back yard will just be a hurdle for them. Roger (James) and our teen children are home daily. So everyone gets tons of love. Our old English sheep dog is just a pup and would love someone to play with! If left alone it would only be for an hour or so and all dogs would be crated. We love our pets like they are our kids! Dogs are able to get on the couches to snuggle, we play, work on manners and have a great time!

“Haley is absolutely amazing. She shows up on time and I am probably the worst dog mom when it comes to anxiety and leaving my dog and Haley made me feel comfortable but more important she made pepper comfortable.. It’s really really rare to find someone like Haley. I am forever grateful”

About: I enjoy volunteering at animal shelters when I have the free time, I grew up with dogs, and enjoy watching my friend's pets so I figured I would try this out for the summer! I am looking for a post grad job right now so I have a lot of free time. Your dog would be my number one priority. I keep a checklist on my phone of what and when to feed the dogs and try to get a least a mile in on walks.

About: I’m trustworthy, friendly, and attentive, providing loving care for your pet as if they were my own—ensuring their happiness, safety, comfort, and well-being every day. I’m currently unemployed and available most hours of the day to help with you and your pet’s needs, providing flexible, attentive, loving, and dependable care. I live with my parents and their dogs, who are not great with others—so I’m only available for reliable pet care exclusively at your home.

“Carolyn was amazing! My fur babies loved her and she was very sweet to them. Great communication and shared photos to let me know everyone was having fun! I will definitely have Carolyn take care of the fur babies again!”

Mei E.

“Absolutely wonderful. She went above and beyond. I highly recommend Callie. She took pictures of our pups, she stayed the entire time and the house was as clean as when we left. So grateful that we found Callie.”

Mark G.

“We are overwhelmed with Renee. She did a great job with the dogs and the straightening and cleaning done throughout our home. Thank you”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities — including my own doodles. I offer reliable, loving pet care that includes daily walks, playtime, cuddles, and personalized attention. Whether your pup needs a quick stroll or overnight care, you can count on me to treat them like family. I am currently a stay at home mom of one 6 year old girl. So my schedule is very flexible and I am available to care for pets at any point as long as I have ample time to plan for it. I have a fenced in yard with three very friendly doodles that love to play. I have crates available if needed. I can also meet at the clients house and spend time with the pet there and/or walk them.

About: I'm an experienced pet and house sitter who has more than two decades of expertise in caring for my own pups and the pet friends and homes of others. Cheesy but true: I'm the guy who friends and family call "the dog whisperer." I grew up with family dogs and cats, and have been a dog owner for most of my adult life. I love helping other people travel and do the things they love by taking excellent care of their homes and pets! I have a flexible schedule that includes plenty of time working from home. I get outdoors multiple times a day and enjoy mountain biking, hiking, and running with my two working dogs. I'm clean and pay exquisite attention to detail. I'm kind and loving with pets but also excude a strong presence (it comes from having a radio voice). I have numerous references who can attest to my trustworthiness.

About: I am a biology student at WCU focused on ecology, so I absolutely love animals. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, but I also have experience with exotic animals. I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for over 5 years, and it’s always been my favorite job! I work flexible part time jobs, so I am available both mornings and evenings, as well as weekends with notice! My current flexibility also allows for more daytime pet care, such as walks or check-ins. I have lots of experience with overnight pet care, and I know that trust is a big part of an animal feeling comfortable with a stranger in their space. I’m very calm and relaxed when I first meet an animal to give them space to come to me :)
