“Christie took the absolute best care of our cats and our home while she was house sitting for us. She was very communicative leading up to the visit and with pictures and updates while we were gone. Our cats usually take time to warm up to someone they don't know, but that wasn't the case with Christie. They were comfortable with her within minutes of meeting her! Animals sense good people and good energy! We can't recommend her enough for taking care of your pets and your home.”
“Michele was wonderful. I’m so glad I found her! I’m new to the area and scheduled a last minute trip to visit family and she was available with such short notice and was extremely flexible. She got my little scaredy cats to come out of hiding which is a feat for new people. Michele will be my go-to be when I need help!”
About: I’ve had three ferrets of my own, so I know just how playful (and mischievous!) exotics can be. I’ve also cared for rabbits, birds, fish, and even snakes for friends and neighbors. Before I moved, I horse sat regularly and honestly feel most at home in a barn—feeding, grooming, mucking stalls, all of it. Cats, though, have always been my comfort zone. I understand their quirks and routines, and I adjust to each one’s personality, whether they’re shy or clingy. I’ve given oral meds, handled picky eaters, and I always keep things clean, calm, and consistent. Whether it purrs, hops, slithers, or gallops—I’ve likely cared for it and loved every minute. I’m a teacher with summers off, so I have full availability right now, and during the school year, I’m available in the afternoons and evenings. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions to a T and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved—while also keeping your home just the way you left it. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease.
About: With 16 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs, behaviors, and well-being. My experience includes everything from daily walks and feeding to administering medication, grooming, and providing loving companionship. I recently left my career as a mental health therapist to homeschool my child. He has a huge passion for animals, and in addition to our pup at home, we both would like more experiences taking care of and being around other animals. We have time out in the community built into his school schedule each day where checking-in or dog walking would fit in nicely. I will work to build rapport and get to know your pet’s behaviors, routines and any special needs. I’ll strictly adhere to your guidelines for feeding, exercise and any special care needed. I’ll be sure to keep your home secure by locking doors and securing gates to ensure the safety of your pet and home. I’ll treat your home with care and communicate with you regularly. I’m highly observant and will watch for any signs of illness or distress in your pet and will address them and reach out to you promptly.
About: Hi, I’m Caitlin! An animal lover and advocate, I’ve had animals my entire life, dog sit for friends all the time, and have been involved with animal rescue for years. My job is flexible, I’m trustworthy, communicative, and will treat your furry friend as if it’s my own. I used to dog sit on Rover and am re-entering the scene! Contact me with questions or for more information! I work remotely and have a flexible schedule right now. Can work with pet owners to establish a system that works for everyone and meets the dogs needs. When caring for my own pets, friends, or families- there is no distinction. All animals receive the same love, attention, and respect they deserve. I extend that to clients as well.

About: With over five years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of ages and sizes, I provide dedicated, compassionate, and reliable pet care tailored to each dog's unique personality and needs.

During my stay, I treat the home with the utmost respect- just as i would my own-keeping things clean, secure, and organized. I follow all instructions closely and make sure pets feel safe. comfortable, and, loved in their familiar environment.

“Andrw is just what the dog-ter ordered! He is friendly, and professional. He was able to get through our dog's defensiveness, and become friends very quickly. He was on time, and communicated perfectly. I look forward to having him come back soon.”
About: Hi there! My name is Taylor, and I recently graduated from UNC Chapel Hill with a degree in Biology. I’ve been pet sitting for over 8 years, starting back in high school, and I absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds! I have experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and training levels—including dogs, cats, and more. I am currently a summer intern at the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center, where I care for sea turtles on a daily basis. While I’m unable to provide in-home boarding, I offer drop-in visits and overnight stays in your home to keep your pets comfortable in their own environment. I'm based in Surf City but happy to travel to nearby areas. I'd love the opportunity to meet your furry (or scaly!) loved ones. Looking forward to connecting with you soon! Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available for in-home stays or drop-in visits and can provide walks and care before work (around 7 AM), during lunch (around noon), and after work (around 4 PM). I also have availability throughout the evening and overnight, making it easy for me to accommodate a variety of schedules and pet needs! As a summer intern currently staying in provided housing, I'm not able to offer in-home boarding. However, I'm very comfortable caring for pets in their own homes and have extensive experience with both drop-in visits and overnight stays. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine closely and provide plenty of attention, playtime, and care to keep them happy and comfortable while you're away! It is very important to me that you are confident your pet is taken care of with no worries, so I like to send frequent updates and photos as well. It's also very important to me that my clients come home to a clean, tidy house—just the way they left it.
About: I have many years of experience in rescuing, nurturing and training animals from domestic to wild.

They are very knowledgeable and passionate about all animals! While in our care, you can expect your fur baby/s to have fun, feel loved and blend like one of the pack! They may also learn a trick or 2. Our home is their home and we love the company! Can’t wait to meet soon! I have lots of energy and free time daily to give your pet/s all the love and attention they need and want! Your fur baby/s will have a blast while you’re away! When it comes to pet sitting my little family and I are a team and we work together to make sure your pet/s are fully supervised, entertained, and spoiled at all times! We have a big fenced back and front yard, a screened in deck, sprinklers, pool, an entire playroom just for your pet/s, lots of toys, lounge areas throughout the house, grain free kibbles, fruit treats, filtered water, cameras and a sweet-friendly pup of our own to feel at home :) if you prefer for your pet/s to have no contact with another dog, I can also arrange it.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats especially over breaks. I love taking animals on walks and hanging out with them! Huge dog fan! As a teacher I am free most weekends and when I get off work. For house sitting, understand if it’s during the week I won’t be able to leave work to let them out but will be able to after school is finished. I follow the directions left for feeding and I do my best to be sure the animals get playing time and lots of cuddles! I do have experience giving animals medicine from past jobs if that is something you are looking for.

“I have known Caitlin for over 10 years and she is one of the kindest individuals I know - along with having the biggest heart for animals. She helped me rescue countless dogs from a local kill shelter in college and would always go above and beyond to help me care for them. Caitlin has always been a huge animal lover and loves any pet she takes care of (foster, friend’s, stray, etc.) like her own. Her new large fenced in backyard also makes for the perfect play area and my wild and crazy pup loves to go over to play with Noodle in their own private dog park.”

“Forrest is amazing! He watched my two active pups for a week. He was not only extremely reliable and thorough, but he went above and beyond in caring for them! I don’t trust just anyone with my dogs, but anytime I need someone, he will be my first call! The dogs loved him, and you could tell he really liked them too. He asked all the important questions, took care of all their needs, and made sure the dogs and the house were secure when he left. I couldn’t recommend him more, and I think the dogs would love for me to take more day trips so they could see their new friend more often!”
