Dog Sitting Willow Spring

“Kelsey is amazing, was willing to work with me on a really short notice, and kept up constant communication with me to keep me updated while I was away on vacation. She even taught my dog a new trick while I was away! Will definitely use her in the future.”

“Brooke was great taking care of our cockatiels! She communicated every step of the way and even accommodated us as the snow storm got in the way of our trip. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I've had German Shepherds, cats, and horses all my life. I fostered shy, scared cats from a shelter in Prague and got them all adopted, except my foster fail, Pepsi. I know how to coax out a hider and spot when a pet isn't feeling well. I've walked and dogsat large breeds, like huskies, staffies, labs, goldens, shepherds, collies, etc., and I'm comfortable with harnesses, muzzles, and waist leashes. I've given meds to many sick and senior animals (dogs and cats), using pill injectors and pill pockets. I can also do puppy basics like potty schedules and crate routines, if we keep a consistent schedule. I've volunteered at shelters since 2006, competed and been on training staff at horse competitions, farm sat, volunteered with therapeutic horse riding programs, and worked as a horse camp counselor. Taking care of animals has always been a big priority in my life :) My schedule is flexible, so I can fit visits around your day. Drop-ins are my specialty, and I'm available mornings, afternoons, and evenings most days. Overnights can be arranged if you need them. I also have family nearby who help with childcare, so last-minute requests are often doable if communication is clear. I reply fast and will always tell you early if something changes. At my home, my backyard is fully fenced appropriately for all sizes of dogs. Larger dogs get leashed walks (quiet neighborhood with no other dogs off leash) and supervised play. I have two friendly, dog- and cat-social German Shepherds and a cat, so we will have to arrange a meet and greet first. At your home, I'll follow your routines, keep doors and gates secured, and send regular photo updates.

About: As a lifelong multi-dog owner and passionate animal lover, I provide reliable, compassionate care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and backgrounds. Sharing my home with two rescue pitbull mixes who survived past abuse has given me hands-on experience with difficult behavioral challenges and advanced techniques like e-collars through extensive professional training. I bring a patient, highly adaptable approach to every visit, ensuring all pups—from easygoing companions to sensitive or reactive rescues—feel safe, understood, and well-cared-for while you're away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly schedule thanks to a flexible routine and a genuine passion for animals. I am available for reliable drop-in visits and care around my professional schedule, allowing me to give your dogs the dedicated attention, playtime, and routine care they need throughout the day. Safety, trust, and clear communication are my absolute top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your animals with the utmost respect and care. This includes carefully following your exact feeding, medication, and routine instructions, keeping doors and gates securely latched, and monitoring closely for any signs of stress or discomfort. Because I have extensive experience with rescue dogs and behavioral management, I am deeply attuned to canine body language, environmental triggers, and safety protocols. Whether your dog needs high-energy exercise, gentle reassurance, or careful management on leash, I provide a calm, structured, and secure environment so you can have total peace of mind while you're away.

About: i’ve been pet sitting for the past five years. I also work with a nonprofit dog rescue and foster puppies. I have watched dogs of all breeds and sizes. I have a full time job but I can fit pets into my weekends. I can do three drop ins a day for dogs and cats if needed! If you just need one drop in I can after work (5:30 m-f) I do not offer in-home boarding, as I foster and have three dogs of my own. However, I provide attentive and reliable care in my clients’ homes. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection while keeping their environment safe and comfortable. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their well-being and happiness.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for my whole life, my family always had dogs growing up, and now my own fur baby is about to turn 10! I will make your pets feel comfortable while their favorite people are away, from playtime, to walks, to meal time. I have experience giving medications, and my dog recently had a TPLO surgery so I got much more comfortable with post surgery and more intense dog care. Anything your pet needs, I’ll be there! I’m currently working as a freelance social media manager, and making my own content, so I can check on your pets all throughout the day! While I don’t offer boarding or house sitting, I will make your pets feel supported and loved while their favorite people are away! My own dog loves long walks, playing fetch, and learning new tricks.

About: I have grown up around animals and throughout that time have gained skills that help with sitting and with that it allows me to be a better sitter. I have been around all ages of cats and dogs my whole life and have been sitting regularly since I was thirteen. I’m currently in school and not very busy with classes, so I’ll be readily available to fulfill any petting sitting needs that are needed. I will usually check in and/or walk in the morning or in the evening. My dog gets walked twice a day at minimum because he tends to want to get that much energy out. This usually happens at night and I would be able to walk any dogs at the same level which I do mine.

About: Growing up on a small farm, I have always had a huge heart for animals. Ultimately, I want to land a career in wildlife rehab, and also have a small farm of my own. I currently do not have any pets sadly, only because I'm still traveling around a bit before settling down. I truly miss being surrounded by animals though and would love to care for others' dogs in the meantime. To be honest I'm a much happier person with lovable animals around me! I also have experience working at an animal hospital as an animal attendant, helping administer medications when needed. I work part time, six hour shifts a few times a week. As of right now I don't have a set schedule, but could request consistent shifts if necessary to look after your pets regularly! Outside of my work schedule, I'd be happy to spend my time exploring nearby parks and neighborhoods with your pups. I love to spend most of my time outdoors, and spending it with a pup makes the time that much more valued! I guarantee your pups will get the exercise they need, and lots of love in the form of belly rubs and cuddles while at home.

About: Throughout my life I have cared for five dogs of my own and fostered three others! I absolutely love all animals and have a little experience training one of my own dogs! I’m currently a full-time online student at ASU and have a part-time job at the Clayton Rec Center. I am free most of the day to make plenty of time for your pets. On average I have 2-3 shifts a week that last 4-6 hours (normally in the late evenings). This gives me plenty of time in my day to care for your pet. I will make sure to have a balanced schedule for your dog and make it as consistent as possible. I plan to communicate as much as you see fit and ensure that your dog feels comfortable!

“Ana was an excellent sitter for Lola. She was on time and immediately connected with Lola. Ana sent pictures of Lola while I was out of town and provided feedback on the visits and Lola's walks. I would highly recommend Ana and will definitely use her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog since I was 9, and I have taken care of other’s pets (such as family friends’s pets) before. I am currently at school, but will be out for summer soon. I work a few nights a week at my part time job but my mornings and most of the afternoon are free. I can feed, walk, play with, and crate your fur baby. I do not offer overnight services at my house, however I am willing and able to stay at your house if needed/wanted.

About: Growing up, I had 7 dogs in the house I cared for all at the same time for several years, ranging in size and age. Currently I own a Doberman, South African Mastiff(AKA Boerboel), a Pitt mix, and a Pomeranian! Although I haven’t owned a cat, I do care for my aunt’s kitten when needed! I am free from Saturdays at 5pm until Tuesdays at 6pm every week, this availability is due to the fact that I do have my daughter the other days, but I am also comfortable bringing her if your pet is child friendly feel free to message and I can come outside of this exact availability! I enjoy exercise, so any energetic animal will be fine with me, I am able to take long walks if that’s a preference of yours.

About: My name is Alissa and I live in Fuquay Varina. I grew up around dogs of all sizes and love dogs so much! I have over 10 years of sitting for others pets from puppies to senior dogs! My husband, myself and our two friendly huskies, Storm and Nova live in a house, in a safe and friendly neighborhood with tons of places to walk and also with a fenced in yard. I would love to take care of your fur baby! Hope to speak with you soon! I currently am working part time, so my hours to care for others fur babies are very flexible. I can watch them in my own home or have visits to your home. I have a fenced in yard and a fur baby of my own to keep yours company. And I will always follow the rules you set for me for completing your pet’s care properly and safely.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my entire life and have been walking and pet-sitting since I was 15. I have experience staying overnight with pets and caring for dogs with different needs and personalities. My own rescue dog taught me how to be patient and gentle with timid dogs, and I’ve carried that into every pet I care for. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter, taking dogs out for the day and walking them whenever I can. This experience has helped me work confidently with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m a passionate dog lover who treats every pup like family. I’m a sophomore at Coastal Carolina University and will be home for the holidays! My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m generally available most days and happy to work around your family’s needs. I’d love to help out whenever I’m needed! When I’m walking or visiting dogs at their homes, safety and trust are my top priorities. I make sure to follow any instructions the owner provides closely, keep dogs on leash during walks, and stay attentive to their behavior to ensure they’re comfortable and happy. I respect each dog’s space and routine, and always leave the home as clean and organized as I found it. Building trust with both the pet and owner is important to me, and I’m committed to providing reliable, caring support every time.

About: I’ve grown up with pets and started taking on hands-on care when I was just 9 years old. Over the years, I’ve also spent a lot of time volunteering at my local animal shelter, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of pet personalities—from shy and gentle to playful and energetic! I work full-time with a flexible hybrid schedule, which allows me to integrate pet care into my routine with ease. Just let me know when you need me! Since I won’t be hosting pets in my home (I have two cats of my own!), I focus on creating a calm, consistent, and respectful environment in your home. I always follow your instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding routines, walk preferences, or medications. I make sure your pet feels safe and cared for by keeping their space clean, sticking to their normal schedule, and giving them the attention they need based on their personality—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or just a reassuring presence.
