“Emilee was wonderful! She came by for a meet and greet ahead of time, which gave me so much peace of mind, and took great care of my dogs during a big day for me. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable with them. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with her again.”


About: I've had pets growing up my entire life. I love animals and just enjoy being around them and giving them love! I've taken care of several pets for friends and family and just want to continue to do that for others when needed. I have my own business so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available day or night to take care of your furr babies 😊 My own animals are so friendly and loving and my home would be completely safe for ur furr babies but at this time I won't be able to board any pets at my house. This may change in the future.
About: Raised my own dog and his puppy from birth, now experienced with senior care. Pet sitting is natural to me, it's not just a job. I currently have a part time job and in college. My hours vary through the week but they are set depending the season because of school. I have a senior dog, so he can either be relaxed or playful. So I can always adjust to my babies needs and I can do the same for yours!
About: Hello my name is Erin, I have grown up with a dog my whole life. Starting around 4 years old my family has fostered dogs getting them ready for their future family’s. I have experienced with training and disciplining all kinds of dogs.

I am very flexible with hours from morning to evening. I am an easy going person so just let me know what works best for you and I will accommodate. I make sure your pets schedule stays the same as close as I can while allowing for many cuddles and lots of play. I can also help care for other things around your home like plants and daily chores.

About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved being around them. I also have experience dog sitting for a friend, including staying overnight to care for her dogs while she was away.

About: I've got over 15 years experience pet sitting, dog walking, and working in kennel environments. I've cared for dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, horses, and everything in between! I have 3 dogs of my own who love to meet and play with other dogs. I have special experience and a soft spot for senior pups who may need meds or have other special needs. I will love your furbabies like they are my own. I work from home 3 days per week and usually have weekends off from my full time job. I have a fully fenced yard with a dog door so as long as your pup gets along with my dogs they will be able to roam my house and yard freely all day when I am home. My pups are a mix of active and lazy/cuddly. My yard is fully fenced with special care to block any would-be diggers or jumpers. Dogs are crated when I am not home or cannot watch them. For dog walks, I can accommodate meals and medications if needed along with let outs and walks.

About: I am a 23 year old young-professional and dog mom who has a passion and love for pets. I have two pit mixes and a kitty who are my world! I just recently moved to Winston-Salem for my job; I work 8:30-5 Mon-Fri, but outside of that I really have a lot of free time. I am hoping to become a reliable weekend, afternoon and occasional holiday sitter for family’s in the Winston area. I have sat for many family’s pets in the past, as well as I grew up helping my mom run her in-home pet care business. I also have volunteered at local animal shelters for 10+ years and have fostered in the past as well. I have plenty of experience with small and big dogs and cats; however, big dogs certainly have the key to my heart. I am looking forward to caring for your fur babies! I am currently working Mon-Fri 8:30-5pm but have a lot of free time outside of that. I am hoping to become a reliable afternoon, weekend and occasional holiday sitter in the Winston area. I adapt my care based of each pets individual needs and personality’s. I have two large pit bulls (and a cat!), so I understand the balance of long walks, playtime and rest! Whatever your pet may need, I am here to make sure they are taken care of.
About: Let me begin by saying I love animals. My family and I have always had dogs and cats ever since I was a child. At the moment, I am only available to do drop-in visits. I have experience in house sitting and caring for multiple dogs at a time, as well as administering medication. As an owner of a 8 year old German Shepherd named Oliver, and his younger siblings that are 5 year old German Shepherd/Husky mixes named Mango and Wylie, I completely understand the hesitancy in trusting a stranger to care for your fur babies. I love every dog like they are my own. I also have experience in taking care of cats and cats that are elderly. I had the opportunity to take ownership of a 20 year old cat, and I got to love and care for her for the last two years of her life. I am currently in between jobs and working towards a certification online. Which means, my availability to care for your pet is very flexible and will be able to give your pet the attention they need. For potential clients: I will be out of town from August 15th 2025- August 24th 2025. I will not be able to respond to any requests during that time. But will respond promptly after said dates. I care for your pets with the utmost love, care and flexibility. If there are routines/rules in place, I will abide by them strictly, as I understand that sometimes diverting from those routines can be traumatic for your dog. Routines includes meal times, treats, walks, being let out to use the bathroom and playtime. If you are looking for photo updates as well, I’m more than happy to send those over.

About: I've had 6 dogs throughout my life along with cats. We raised beagle puppies when I was a child. I have cared for a great dane and two cats for nearly ten years that I truly loved like they were my own. I also cared for a lab mix and two cats for a dear friend on several occasions. I'm retired and available most week days and am flexible on the times that I'm available. Also, I am available to work weekends when given enough notice. I will follow the instructions of the pet owner when it comes to feeding, caring for and exercising the pets. I will walk them based on their schedule and I will gladly socialize with the pets and make certain the maintain a safe and loving environment.
“I honestly can’t say enough good things about Chelsie! Leaving my dog with someone is always a little stressful, but from the moment I met her, I felt completely comfortable. She was so caring, patient, and attentive, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about my dog and treated him like her own. She kept me updated and sent me pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, my dog was happy and comfortable with her, and that means everything to me. ❤️ I’m so grateful for how well Chelsie took care of him. I would absolutely trust her with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly love and care for their pet. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️”

About: Hi I’m Luke! I’ve taken care of lots of different dogs over the years. From puppies to senior pets, timid to aggressive dogs big or small I’ve taken care of them all. Dogs are like people with their own special needs and quirks that need to be addressed with care. Contact me today to see how I can help! I work a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day into evenings for dog walks and drop in visits! Schedule varies so always willing to stop by! I currently live in an apartment complex that is friendly towards dogs. All dogs have their own special needs that need to be met and I am here to make sure those needs are fulfilled.
About: Taking care of pets has been apart of my life for many years. I love them! I have been boarding puppies and adult dogs for family and neighbors. I have breeded dogs and have sold many healthy puppies. Pet care is a daily routine for me as I am a pet owner myself. Pet walking is a every day thing for me and my dog I have one on one care for the pets they are in the home with me on the couch or floor.The pet is put on a leash for potty breaks. If I am boarding a pet the pet sleeps in a cage inside my home.
About: Hi! I’m 25 years old and a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on pet care experience. Caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry (or feathered!) family member needs a walk, a quick drop-in visit, overnight care, or extended sitting, you can count on me to provide reliable, loving care while you’re away. I currently have an Australian Shepherd mix and a pet bird, so I’m experienced with both dogs and exotic pets. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every animal has unique needs and routines. I’m also experienced and confident in administering medications, whether that means pills, liquid medications, or following specific care instructions to keep your pet healthy and comfortable. My friends, family, and previous clients consistently describe me as dependable, compassionate, and attentive. I’m proud to have glowing references from pet owners who trust me to care for their beloved companions, and I work hard to earn that trust with every visit. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, and updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently available for overnight stays, drop-in visits, dog walking, and other pet care services, and I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets. I can’t wait to give them the same level of care and affection that I give my own! Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine, so caring for additional pets fits seamlessly into my schedule. I start and end each day caring for my own babies, an aussie mix and a quaker 🦜 making sure they receive plenty of exercise, enrichment, attention, and love. Because I’m already committed to a structured pet care routine, I’m able to easily incorporate walks, drop-in visits, feedings, playtime, medication administration, and overnight stays for my clients’ pets. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I make it a priority to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether it’s an energetic puppy that needs extra playtime, a senior pet requiring medication, or a shy cat that just needs some quiet companionship, I’m happy to provide personalized care that helps your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable and secure in my care. Whether we’re out on a walk, playing at home, or simply relaxing together, I remain attentive and patient while ensuring they stay safe at all times. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy, loved, and in good hands.

About: Friends, coworkers, and family members have trusted me with taking care of their pets over the years. Most of my formal experience with caring for other peoples pets came during and after college, however I was raised around pets (cats and dogs) and learned how to be safe and responsible with animals when I was very little. I am very comfortable with a variety of breeds and temperaments. I have a good understanding of basic commands and have trained two of my own dogs from puppies. I grew up around dogs and cats (we had three golden retrievers at one point!) and always looked forward to getting a dog of my own. There is something about the bond between owner and dog that is special and unique. I enjoy having this bond with my own dog but I also love meeting new animals and seeing their personalities come out as they get comfortable interacting. I have been exposed to many types of dogs while dog sitting, visiting local dog parks, and traveling with our dogs to pet friendly locations. I am familiar with caring for dogs that take oral medication and/or have health problems such as limited sight or blindness. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about hiring me for boarding, dog walking, check-ins, or dog day care! I have one small child in the home, so any dogs staying with us during the day or overnight would need to be comfortable and well behaved enough to be around a young child. I wake up early and go to bed around 9pm/10pm. I have one dog in the home who is very friendly and well socialized. He takes little to no time to warm up to other dogs when introduced. Your dog will have plenty of space to be comfortable to chill and play! We enjoy spending time outside on nice days. When it is too hot or cold outside I make sure our pup gets playtime or enrichment toys/treats inside. I currently can offer dog walking services, daily check-ins for cats or dogs, and day/night boarding at our home (as long as your pet is a good and safe fit for a home with a small child). We have a large front and backyard as well as a carport/porch area. There is plenty of space for playing fetch, having the zoomies, or chewing on a treat while getting some fresh air, rain or shine! If your dog requires being leashed/walked when going potty, that is no problem. There is plenty of space to take them around the yard for sniffs and potty, as well as walkable streets near our house, and a beautiful park with a walking trail less than 2 minutes away. Our dog currently follows recall and commands to do his "business" and come back, but if we are caring for another dog we will leash them both or follow the owner's preferences and what they are comfortable with.

About: I recently relocated from Greenville, South Carolina, to the Winston Salem area. While I'm new to the area, I'm not new to pet care! I've been a lifelong dog owner and have over five years of experience caring for dogs. I'm excited to start building new relationships with pet parents here in Winston Salem. I'm a registered nurse, so providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care comes naturally to me. My career has taught me to stay calm under pressure, pay close attention to detail, and follow routines and special instructions carefully-all qualities that also make me an excellent pet sitter. Whether your pet needs medication, has a specific routine, or simply loves extra attention, I'm happy to accommodate their individual needs. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels-from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to build trust so they feel comfortable, loved, and secure while you're away. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, or plenty of cuddles, my goal is to make your pet feel as happy and relaxed as possible. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life! As a nurse, I work only 3 days a week, which means I’m home the majority of the week with plenty of time and energy to care for pets. On my days off, I plan my routine around feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddle sessions. Even on the days I’m working, my husband, who has just as much experience with dogs as I do, takes over to ensure pets are safe, happy, and cared for. We truly enjoy having dogs around and treat every one like our own! In my home, pets are treated like part of the family! We have a fully fenced backyard in a quiet, safe neighborhood, perfect for pups to run, play, and get plenty of fresh air. Inside, there’s lots of space for lounging and relaxing, and I always make sure pets are comfortable, well-fed, and getting plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s playtime, mealtime, or just some cozy cuddles, I follow each pet’s routine closely to make sure they feel right at home.
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals throughout my life including, cats, dogs, and rabbits. I grew up mainly with dogs but I love all animals. I’m currently in school at Appalachian State University for becoming a veterinarian technician. But, I’m doing online so my availability is anytime throughout the week. I would keep your fur baby’s safe while pet sitting/walking them no matter what. I will keep your dogs close when other dogs approach in case of a bad interaction.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Willowbend
Tricia is polite, cheerful and communicative. Our dog was very comfortable with her from the beginning and looks forwards to his walk days with her. Plus, she brings our high-energy fella home ready to sleep all afternoon, which is exactly what we were looking for in a walking companion for him. Don't hesitate to book with Tricia!

Emilee was wonderful! She came by for a meet and greet ahead of time, which gave me so much peace of mind, and took great care of my dogs during a big day for me. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly very comfortable with them. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with her again.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
