Doggy Day Care in Winterville

“Juli watched my pup for a long day trip and sent me updates throughout! She has so much experience and I felt so comfortable leaving my dog in her hands. If I ever need a sitter again, Juli would be my first call.”

“Michelle took awesome care of my anxious pup Pippin. Pippin had a great time with her dog, and even got a walk! Will definitely be using Michelle again in the future!”

“Our fur baby was loved on all day by Rachel. She was responsive when we checked in with her. Our pup, who is usually pretty skittish and won’t eat when nervous, ate all of her food while with Rachel. If we are in the area in the future, we will definitely see if Rachel is available!”

“Summer is Amazing! She's Awesome! Very careful and professional! She sent me detailed updates and photos of our pup daily. It was such a relief to know that my puppy baby was in good hands. She certainly treated him like a welcome guest and he was no doubt spoiled and cared for very well. My Royal is typically an anxious and cautious little boy, especially around new people and new animals. But he went to Summer's daycare for a few days and came home to me in the evenings happy and healthy. Knowing he was in good hands allowed me to enjoy my vacation without worrying while he was away from me. That feeling is priceless! Summer is a golden Angel! We can't wait to book a stay with her again!”

“Ashley is amazing! My puppy hasn’t been around many people or dogs so I was nervous at first, but she has been so good with her. Keeps me updated throughout the day and my pup is so comfortable around her.”

About: 🐶 About Me: Hi, I’m Heather—an experienced, nurturing pet professional who has been surrounded by animals since before I could walk. From dogs and cats to birds, bunnies, and even rescued wildlife, I’ve dedicated my life to loving and caring for animals of all kinds. Before relocating to North Carolina, I was a star sitter in Boston, MA, where I built long-term relationships with many repeat clients who entrusted me with their beloved pets time and time again. My background in both teaching and animal care fuels my approach: structured, empathetic, and full of joy! I’ve worked with animals in all life stages, and I’m highly experienced in: • Administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable) • Caring for seniors, puppies, and animals with special needs • Training dogs through behavioral challenges including leash reactivity, food aggression, and fear-based behaviors At home, I share my life with Gherkin, my brilliant 4-year-old Belgian Sheepdog who has completed Basic Obedience, Canine Good Citizen, and two levels of Scent Training, and Gunnar, a sweet Miniature Australian Shepherd who is currently mastering his obedience basics. Whether you need: • Boarding • In-Home Sitting • Drop-In Visits • Dog Walking …your pet will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m incredibly detail-oriented, quick to notice subtle changes in behavior or health, and I always strive to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and comforting as possible. Whether your companion is energetic and playful or shy and needing gentle care, I adjust my approach to meet their needs. I’ve also lived and worked around a wide variety of animals, including: 🐾 Bunnies, chinchillas, guinea pigs 🕊️ Birds 🐿️ Rehabilitated wildlife 🐕 Dogs with training or behavioral needs You can trust that your pet is in calm, capable, and loving hands with me. 📅 Availability As a Special Education Teacher, my school year has ended and I currently have open availability for pet care bookings. This includes weekdays, weekends, and holidays throughout the summer. My availability may shift slightly as I explore new professional opportunities, but I will always keep my calendar accurate and up to date. I remain committed to making time for both new and returning clients whenever possible. 🏠 How I Care for Pets in My Home and in Yours Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, you can expect attentive, personalized, and respectful care every step of the way. In My Home: I have a cozy home with a large yard—perfect for safe outdoor time and quick potty breaks. It is partially fenced. So, outdoor time will either occur on walks or on longlines. While the yard is large, I know most pets love a change of scenery, so we also enjoy leisurely walks, when appropriate, adventures to local parks H. Boyd isn't far) or dog parks. I always follow the owner’s preferences for activity level, routines, and socialization. Your pet will get plenty of affection, structured care, and attention—just like one of my own. In Your Home: When house sitting, I pride myself on being the most respectful guest you could ask for. I keep things tidy, follow all instructions to the letter, and am so focused on caring for your pet that your home may be cleaner than when you left it. I understand that your pet feels safest in their own space, so I work to maintain a calm, consistent environment while you’re away. Whether it’s watering plants, bringing in the mail, or keeping to a special feeding or medication schedule, I’ve got it covered. To be clear, as a house sitter, I do not stay overnight because I have my own dogs, but I stay as long as needed to ensure your furbabies are cared for (as mine can go for a long time). If you happen to book a house sitting when I don't have any other animals boarding, it is possible for me to stay overnight. I work out all the communication prior to your departure and stay in communication as much or as little as you request while you are away. Ultimately, I take my cues from you and your pet’s needs—always prioritizing comfort, safety, and peace of mind.

About: I have over 6 years of experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I have a passion for animals and plenty of references. I have very friendly, socialized dogs of own who are spayed & neutered and up to date on vaccines. I have worked in animal welfare and have clinic experience, so no need to worry when you’re away. I’ve been to several dog behavior and training seminars. I’ve been trained in how to introduce dogs and read body language. I’ve managed play groups at my local humane society and enjoy studying dog behavior. I can teach basic commands and leash training. Basic grooming is covered at my place! I can do baths, ear cleanings, and nails trims. 🥰 Your kids are safe with me! 🐾 I have a pretty flexible schedule, leaving me plenty of time to exercise and train your pet! I have a fenced in yard for potty breaks, and afternoons can be spent doing training and leash etiquette, as well as play time with or without the other dogs. I have 3 very friendly dogs, so your pup will always have someone to play with! If they need a break, I can accommodate that as well as I have crates and a spare bedroom. Your pup will go on daily walks, get enrichment of your choice, and cute pictures to update you on how they’re doing.

“I highly recommend Molly. She did an excellent job.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12. It all started when my mom’s friend couldn’t find the time to make sure her pup was happy. So she relied on me to make sure that her pup was happy. I love animals, I have my own and I make sure they get whatever it is they need even if it’s just cuddles. I am a college student, who is home for the summer and looking to earn some extra money. I currently do not have a job. I treat all pets with genuine love, gratitude, and affection. I will provide a comfortable and safe environment as well as the right amount of exercise.

About: I know how to adapt to each animal’s unique personality and routine. What sets me apart is the trust I build not only with pets but with their people. I provide daily updates, adorable photos, and peace of mind while you're away. Whether it's administering medication, going for long walks, or simply offering some extra love and belly rubs, I treat every pet like my own. This isn’t just a job, it's a loving passion! Pet care fits into my week really naturally. I'm in school with an easy schedule, so I’ve got the time that makes it easy to fit in morning walks, afternoon visits, or whatever your pet needs. Whether it’s dropping in to feed and play, going for a walk, or just keeping them company, I plan my day around making sure they’re happy and well cared for. Honestly, spending time with animals is the best part of my day—it never feels like a chore!! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at the client’s, I always try to make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible. In my home, I keep things calm, clean, and pet-friendly, with plenty of space to play and relax. I stick to their normal routines as much as I can—meals, walks, and bedtime, so it feels familiar to them. When I’m at a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I would my own, making sure their pet gets lots of attention, exercise, and love. I follow any instructions closely and always leave the place just as I found it, if not better!

“Flexible with our schedule and took great care of our boy”

About: My entire life has been endless pet care experience! I have lived with cats and dogs of all shapes, sizes, temperments, and ages. Currently living with my own two dogs and a cat, I understand the need for a trustworthy care taker for my babies. I care about the wellbeing of animals so much, I plan on going to vet school! There is no animal that is too much for me! I can do drop in vists through out the day as I have a few hours scattered through the day between classes and practice. If you needed longer daily walks, I could take your pet out in the morning and leave them tired for the day! I could also provide short boarding services to a dog or cat that is friendly with other animals. My own animals have been around various other animals and are well trained so as long as your pet is friendly they would get along great! Every animal is different and require diffreent treatment. I approach all animals and enviorments with understanding and patience, allowing the animal to communicate their needs in any given senario. I can adjust to various enviorments based on the animal's temperment and the owner's preferences!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and I currently have a sweet boy now who loves to cuddle with other furry friends. You pets happiness is top priority. As a full-time remote worker, I'm home all day to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or just having someone nearby, your furry friend will never feel alone. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priority! I have a spacious backyard where your pet can enjoy some fresh air and sunshine. While it's not fenced, rest assured — I’ll be outside with them at all times to ensure their safety during potty breaks or sunbathing sessions.

About: I grew up around dogs my whole life. Currently work at a nursing home and would care for a dog just like I care for my elderly patients, as if they were family. I am free mostly during the week because I make my own work schedule. I am very flexible and easy to work with. Taking care of dogs is something that I’m interested in doing in my free time to get a break from the long hours working in the nursing home. I’m ready to spend time and take the stress off of people in need of finding someone who will care for their dogs in a short period of time. I’m excited to see what dogs i’ll be blessed to care for
