About: I have worked been around and worked with cats and dogs for my entire life. From having quite a number of pets throughout the years to just going over to a friend’s house and ending up spending more time with the pets than anyone else, my love for animals is strong and my connection with them even stronger. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to hang out with animals and dedicate the time and attention that they need! I have a dog of my own who just loves making new friends and a house that is big enough to give them space to run with many toys to play with.

“Morgan was the BEST person we could have found for our pup!! We are so grateful for how she looked after our girl and all the updates and little notes she left for us to see. Will be sure to book again!!”

About: I’m a devoted dog mom and lifelong animal lover excited to start caring for pets in the Holly Ridge, Topsail, Hampstead, and Wilmington areas. I previously cared for dogs in the Washington, DC area, and I’m thrilled to bring that experience and passion to my new community. I provide personalized care tailored to each dog’s needs—whether that means regular potty breaks, daily walks, energetic playtime, or cozy cuddle sessions. I’m comfortable administering medications, following specific feeding routines, and even helping with basic training and reinforcing good behaviors. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every pup like my own and can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I work from home and I am therefore very flexible especially for boarding and pet sitting. I can also be flexible for walks and drop in's, although I do have a few meetings throughout the week I cannot miss. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly 5 year old dog who is used to having other dogs in his home. We also have a dedicated dog room with a bed, light, fan, and water/food bowls. We have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room for zoomies and live close to nice walking trails and the beach.


“We are so thankful for Holly and her help with Percy this week. She was super easy to communicate with and took lots of really great pictures! We will definitely be booking her again! Trusting people in your house and with your pets can be scary, but we trust Holly!”

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.

About: With my experience of caring for my family’s small yorkies for the past 14 years, I say that my skills are mostly surrounded in the area of caring for older animals. Although in more recent years I have only had smaller pets, bigger pets are not out of range for me since I often care for my neighbors golden retrievers. I am a full time undergrad student who also works part time at a local brewery, although that may mean that my hours are limited, I often see pet sitting as luxury to help me connect with nature and take time out of my typical homework schedule. I strive to create a welcoming and safe environment for the pets whenever I am caring for them. This can include daily walks, regular feeding schedules, and ample playtime. I also prioritize cleanliness and do not mind brushing and bathing the animals to keep them clean and healthy

About: I’ve taken care of family dogs since I was little. Friends and family have also asked me to check in on their dogs for food/water, walks, and other general needs, when out of town. I have full time availability to take care of all your pet or house sitting needs. I’m available 7 days a week for sitting, walks, and more, just reach out! Your pets safety is my number one priority. I always ensure pets are supervised at all times, as well as proper safety when out on walks and more.

About: I love animals, especially dogs. I lost my 11 year old lab last year and currently have a 1 1/2 year old black lab and a 4 year old cat. I trained our puppy from 8 weeks old and she is super sweet and well behaved. She loves all dogs and loves to make new friends! I am currently home full time and spend lots of time outdoors. I walk at least one walk a day, sometimes two. My dog loves to play ball and spend time laying on our porch. I have a very friendly lab that is a year old who loves playing with other dogs. My home is quiet and calm with lots of opportunity for rest or play at anytime during the day.

“Anne was absolutely wonderful. We had a last minute trip out of town and we felt super confident with her watching over Oshie. She has great attention to detail and you can tell is a huge dog lover. She listens to the dog depending on their personality and what they need. You can tell she has much experience around all types of different doggo personalities. We are so happy we found her and will be using her again in the future :)”

“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.

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.”
