“Aimee was great and punctual. She took lots of photos of my boy and kept me updated. Will definitely contact her again. Thanks Aimee!”

“Lily walked my two dogs on time for exactly how long we scheduled her for. We got our photo updates which was great when you are missing the dogs when you are away. I heard from mom that the dogs got super excited to see her each time. Go with Lily if you want it done right.”

About: Hi! I’m 20 years old and have been caring for animals my entire life. I have two Goldendoodles and a German Shepherd of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities! I have experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I also know a dog breeder and have helped care for puppies before they go to their forever homes, so I’m familiar with their routines and special needs. I’ve even cared for up to 20 animals at once in my home, which has taught me how to manage feeding schedules, daily routines, and the individual needs of multiple animals. Now that I’m living away from home, I miss my own furry friends more than ever! I would love the opportunity to give your pets all the love, attention, and care I give my own. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication reminders, or a little extra TLC, I want you to feel confident knowing they’re in caring and capable hands! I am available for drop-ins and walks whenever on the weekends and on weekdays I have classes. This means I am available Monday and Friday anytime after 9am, before 8am and after 1:45pm on Tuesday and Thursday, and from 9am-4pm on Wednesdays. When caring for your pets in your home or taking them on walks, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, so I’ll adjust my care to make sure they get the attention they deserve. During walks, I’ll make sure your dog gets the exercise, fresh air, and sniffing time they need while keeping their safety my top priority. Whether your pup loves long walks, short strolls, or taking their time exploring, I’ll happily accommodate them! When caring for pets in your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and make sure your pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m happy to provide plenty of cuddles, playtime, companionship, and updates so you can feel at ease knowing your furry family members are in good hands. I know how much pets mean to their families because I have several of my own, and I’ll care for yours with the same love and attention I would give my own!

About: I grew up with two dogs and one cat growing up and now I have my own cat, Sammie! I have also done petting sitting for friends and families over the years including animals that are puppies to older pets as well. I am currently working part time and will have lots of availability to play and take care of your pets! Most of my schedule availability is consistent every week. Your pets safety is my biggest priority. I will follow the exact directions/rules you provide so that you can feel confident and trust me with them!

About: I’ve always connected well with animals, especially dogs. I’ve dog walked and watched others’ animals from a very young age. I was 22 when I decided to become a dog trainer. I was fortunate enough to attend one of the best programs in the country at Animal Behavior College, with a certificate in canine behavior therapy & a concentration in rehabilitating shelter dogs. I’m also qualified to train emotional support animals, which has been so rewarding. I chose this as a career path because of how much I genuinely love all living things. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them the best care they could ask for! I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can tend to whatever schedule best suits the animals. I don’t have pets of my own, so that gives me even more flexibility. I always make sure I’m doing my best to care for animals, in any aspect of my life or career. I’m diligent in making sure their feeding, walking and play schedules are upheld promptly, and that their routines stay relatively in tact. This is one of the best things you can do to ease a pet’s anxiety about their owners being away. I work as a trainer, which means I’m happy to add on training sessions with your pet while they’re in my care, through my business if that’s something of interest. I’m very amenable to the specifications for each individual animal. Some dogs like to be given affection on the couch for a few minutes each day. Others might enjoy watching the birds in their yard for a while. I’m always happy to attune my care for each dog. When walking a dog, the quality of the walks are just as important as their frequency. Dogs require a certain level of mental stimulation each day, and ten minutes of sniffing is enough to satisfy most dog’s needs. They need the sniffing as much as the exercise. Your dog will be given ample time to sniff and “read the doggy newspaper”, as well as get some great exercise. I always make sure the animal has gotten everything that they need from the experience.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for a while now. I mainly take care of my own pets and I am wanting to get into pet sitting. I have a dog and two cats back home. I promise your pets are in good hands!! I am a student at UNCW in need of a part time job! If we work together I can show you my class schedule - I am very flexible! Furry friends are so important to me. I absolutely love them and put so much love and care into them. I will walk them, love on them, feed them, and do whatever else they need:)

“Very sweet girl, has tons of experience with large and small dogs. She showed my baby love and patience (my dog is very energetic), will be booking her again next time!”

About: I have been pet sitting for about 5 years and have cared for many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, fish, and lizards. I am very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I am also experienced in giving medications and following specific care instructions when needed. My mom is a veterinarian, so I have grown up around animals and learned a lot about proper pet care and paying attention to changes in an animal’s behavior or health. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet I care for like they are my own! I am currently a college student at UNCW, and I have a 3+ hour break between every class, so I have plenty of free time to take pets out for a potty break throughout the day. I am also completely free most weekends, so I have lots of time to spend with pets! I usually care for pets in their own homes so they can stay in a place they already know and feel comfortable in. I always make sure to follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, medication, and playtime. I’ll also make sure the house is clean, secure, and just the way the owner left it. Most importantly, I want both the pets and their owners to feel comfortable and know they’re in good hands.

“Sadie S was the best walker Gizmo has ever had. She was very reliable, patient, honest and kind. She was so good with my not so always people friendly Chiweenie. He loved his walks with her. I noted honest because when she contacted me, she explained that s she could only walk gizmo for two weeks because she was relocating and she understood you know if I wanted to go with somebody else and I appreciated that honesty. Very sorry to see her go.”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs for most of my life. I’ve grown up around dogs of various breeds such as GSD, collies, and golden retrievers. My childhood dog lived long enough he began developing hip issues so I am well versed in caring for dogs who have special health needs. I’ve been dog sitting for awhile now and am comfortable with staying overnight if that is something you’re interested in! I’ve also dog sat for a dog whose back legs were paralyzed and am happy to assist your pup if they struggle with issues like that! Additionally I work at a doggy daycare (with boarding services) so I am around almost every breed you could think of and am well versed in medication dispersion as well as basic care. With all that being said, I am absolutely obsessed with big dogs (even Great Danes and St Bernards:)) but I am happy to work with dogs of any size! Also I am not scared of trying to work with a dog for them to be comfortable around me if they’re skittish at first. I am in grad school full time and work 25 hours a week at my internship, but I have breaks during the day to let out the animals as needed! I am almost always fully available on weekends, I usually am working on homework, playing pickleball, or reading for fun. I have two dogs and three cats at home so caring for your pets in your home would be a necessity. I am comfortable staying overnight or visiting late at night/early in the morning depending on your wishes. I love keeping the parents updated and can promise multiple pictures per day if you’re gone for a while! I prioritize sticking as close to your usual schedule as possible for your pets so they can keep a sense of normalcy while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old for neighbors, family, and friends, along with my own two dogs and numerous other animals. I’m currently a student in college and would love a flexible job I can squeeze into my odd schedule. I love my dogs more than anything and would love to spend time with any animal since being away from mine! I do not have a yard at my apartment but I am able to take care of your dog however you need at your home or take them to a park!

“Kelly is amazing with our pup, Boris. When we connected with her we were on the lookout for someone who would be able to manage his high energy and leash pulling skills, as well as be kind and patient when he was scared. Kelly does this and way beyond! She is so kind and warm and Boris clicked with her immediately. She is also very skilled and thorough when taking care of him and knows how adjust to what he needs. She’s an amazing dog walker and I truly appreciate her care of Boris and the peace of mind knowing he is well taken care of.”

About: Aside from having animals my entire life, I’ve always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends. I care for every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and safe while you’re away. I intentionally spend quality time with each animal — whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, sticking to routines, or just keeping them company throughout the day. I’m patient with shy pets, attentive to senior animals, and happy to help reinforce training for puppies as well. Since I work from home, pets get lots of attention and companionship instead of being left alone for long periods. My goal is to make your pets feel happy, relaxed, and cared for while giving you peace of mind too 🐾 I work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule where I can work anywhere and take many breaks. I can take same day/emergency request as well. I give lots of attention throughout the day, whether that’s play, cuddles, enrichment activities, or just being nearby so they don’t feel alone. I’m also very mindful of each pet’s personality — some love constant interaction, while others prefer a more relaxed and quieter environment, and I adjust accordingly.

About: I've had the wonderful opportunity to care for various animals from farm to domestic. I have helped care for puppies as well as senior dogs. I have assisted with minor medical needs - IE: changing bandages/administering medicines. Every animal I have cared for has a special place in my heart. I offer flexible, open availability for animal caretaking, providing reliable and compassionate care for pets, including feeding, walking, playtime, and companionship at any time needed. As I cannot care for animals in my own home now, I am dedicated to following whatever needs you or your animal may need to ensure the best experience for everyone.

“Carol was a great dog sitter and I will definitely have her watch my dog again. She sent me updates about my dog as well as pictures. I felt very comfortable with living my dog with Carol. ”
