About: I have experience taking care of my own cats over the past 5 years and my dog over the past 2. Additionally, I’ve pet-sat for friends and family numerous times. I’m currently working part time as I wait on getting my PA licensure. My schedule will be very flexible but if I am dog walking I would prefer to do it on weekdays. I love being around dogs and they love being around me. My own dog at home weighs 100 lbs, so I have no problem working with larger dogs.

About: My name is Nancee and I can't wait to meet your Pup! I am new to N.C. and loving it! I've been a lover of nature and animals since I was a child. I've had dog children since I was a teenager and am super responsible. I live in a spacious home with lots of room to play and a nice neighborhood to walk in. I give lots of updates and pics of your pup, like I myself would appreciate if someone was caring for my own. Making animals happy makes me happy. 😊 I'm currently working from home which gives me a flexible schedule to accommodate your pups needs. I know exercise and playing is important to younger pups and I'm able to provide walks, playing with toys, or belly rubs. I have a medium size friendly and Zen dog at home. He's a lover boy to the extreme. I have a large backyard with some wooded area and also live in a peaceful neighborhood to go on doggy walks.
“Kat took good care of our dogs, cat, fish, turtle & birds while we were away for a whole week. We got lots of photos/videos and updates throughout the week which made us very happy. Thank you!”
About: I’ve worked with dogs, cats, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, and horses my whole life. For the past year I’ve been a veterinary assistant and feel comfortable taking care of your pets every need! Administering medication, following specific dietary instructions, and making sure your pet is safe and happy, I can do it all! I am free this summer to help you and your pet in anyway I can! With my open schedule, I feel as if I can accommodate many different times. I believe the best way to care for your pet is to keep them to their usual schedule. I can play for designated times in your backyard or take your dog to the dog park if that is what you prefer. I also love to go on long sniff walks or just short potty breaks. I can crate your dog before I leave or leave them in the living room with their favorite tv show on. Whatever works best for your dog!
“Ceili took great care of our dog and cat during a long trip. We were nervous to leave them for so long but she sent so many photos and checked in frequently that we felt a lot better after just a few days. They were clearly well taken care of and didn't seem to miss us too much! Highly recommend her if you want someone sweet and responsible!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dogsitter than Nancy! From the moment she arrived, she treated Cora like one of her own. Nancy went above and beyond—sending regular photo updates, taking Cora on extra-long walks, and keeping her cozy with plenty of playtime and belly rubs (which Cora loves lol). She even took care to stick to Cora’s feeding schedule and medication routine without missing a beat. Nancy’s warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for animals gave me total peace of mind over the holidays. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy + caring petsitter!”

“I’ve known Annaliese for many years. There is NO ONE I would trust more with my dogs. She is loving, attentive, enthusiastic, and so very knowledgeable about animals in general. All of my pets have loved her like family, even my older German shepherd who didn’t like anyone during his final years. She has the perfect combination of love and discipline where you know that your pet is perfectly cared for with her. She is THE BEST!!!!”

Sandra was very pleasant and communicative. She helped us out last minute taking care of our pup at our home. Would book with her again!
Meghan interacted with Fendi beautifully. There was a scheduling conflict due to Meghan's other appointment obligations, causing Meghan to arrive several hours later than expected. A call would have been appreciated; however, she did not want to leave the other dogs unattended as well. After we spoke, Megan came as quickly as she could and took excellent care of Fendi. She sent lots of videos and pictures and gave Fendi lots of love. She was extremely apologetic and even refunded some of the additional cost. Fendi interacted well with Megan and when I returned back home it was evident Fendi was establishing a bond. The house was well taken care of and Meghan adhered to all the specific directions given that Fendi is a service animal. She played with her and gave Fendi the special attention needed to allow us to enjoy our trip with less worry. Meghan is mature and took on this assignment at the last minute, reducing my stress of being worried. This is the first time I have ever left Fendi with (3) different individuals with rotating times since I was going to be away for nearly a week. Meghan came through for us and I appreciate her willingness to make this transition of being away more accommodating. Her interaction with Fendi is why I will certainly call upon her again. She showed love and kindness to Fendi and that is priceless.
Kat took excellent care of our dog and kitties. She was very communicative, flexible and considerate. And our animals loved her.
Mariah did a great job looking after Rosie in our home. We came home to a healthy, happy and calm pup. From start to finish, Mariah is a perfect match with our household.
Katie's a fantastic and highly responsible pet sitter. She looked after Jax for a full week while we were traveling, and she took great care of him and of our home, with daily updates and photos. Jax has a few special needs, and she managed all of them without any issues. Highly recommend!
Dave is always our go to house/pet sitter for our two dogs, Nella and Franklin. He does a phenomenal job! We always have peace of mind while we are traveling knowing that Dave is taking care of our pups and our home.
Olivia did a great job watching our dog. She was quick to respond to messages and gave us regular updates while we were gone. Our dog was happy when we returned and our house was just as we left it. We definitely recommend Olivia!
Sophia was great withour 3 dogs including a senior. She sent photos and updates. Highly recommend her
Isabelle is wonderful. Very dependable. Extremely caring. Absolutely will book with her again. Highly recommend!
Dinira was excellent with our animals very attentive and they were very healthy and happy when we came home. If she’s available, we’ll book her every time we go out of town. Even our shy kitty came out to see her and she did fabulous with our diabetic cat with her insulin shots.
This was Luci’s second time watching our dog and two cats. She was very responsive and communicative with us. Our pets seemed very happy and she was flexible with us as we had flight delays. Will definitely book again!
I am so happy with Jaclyn! I have a bit of an anxious puppy and I do NOT like leaving him behind, but a work trip made me have to leave my baby this time. Jaclyn was very kind and sent lots of updates. I had a whole list of instructions and she followed all of them. She even gave my beardie some lettuce and water and turned on and off the lights for my reptiles and arachnids. Daisy and Kilo said whenever mom is out of town, Aunt Jaclyn can watch him!
Ed took great care of our dogs (and home)! They were happy and smiley and sad to see Ed go. Would definitely recommend anyone work with Ed, we certainly will (wouldn't hear the end of it from the dogs if we didn't 😅)
Kayla did amazing with our girl Bella! She did everything that was asked and more, sent pictures and updates, and was easy to schedule with/get ahold of, etc. We will definitely book with her again.
