“Aaron was excellent. We have 2 cats, one old who is friendly, and the other ex feral who is usually terrified of strangers. There I am visiting family, and I get a video of my "feral" bumping around getting her head & butt scratched! Quite a testament to the kind of person Aaron is. The litterbox was spotless. The cat food dishes were washed and neatly stacked. We will not hesitate to use him again.”

“Kim did such a great job with our pups! She made sure to spend a good amount of time with them during each visit, and ensured they got 3 walks a day! We also loved how communicative she was with details of how the dogs were doing, which made us feel they were safe and well cared for while we were away. Thank you, Kim!”

“Taylor was excellent! He took great care of our senior cat, Jos, who can sometimes be very prickly around new people. He showed up on time, made sure Jos was fed and his litter boxes were cleaned, and followed all the directions we left for him. Taylor was attentive, friendly, and accommodating, and I would definitely book him for pet care in the future.”


“This was my second time booking Terri to watch my cats. She did a fantastic job! She is thorough and I can tell she cares for them well. They warmed up to her more this time and she was actually able to send photos of both cats--no more hiding :) Terri will definitely be my go-to sitter.”

About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from playful puppies to wise senior dogs. I’m experienced with giving medication, handling anxious or shy pets with patience, and sticking to your pet’s routine to keep them happy and comfortable. What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and attention to detail—I treat every pet like they’re my own, with lots of care, cuddles, and communication along the way! I will be working full-time on weekdays during the summer, but I’m still fully available for weekend bookings. For weekday care, my boyfriend—who also loves animals and has experience caring for pets—will be available to help with drop-ins, walks, and check-ins. Together, we make sure your pets are well cared for even during the workweek! If your pet needs extra attention during the day, I’m happy to work out a schedule that ensures they get all the love, walks, and snuggles they need. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—from feeding times to walk schedules—so they feel secure and comfortable. I keep water bowls fresh, give plenty of attention and playtime, and make sure they get all the care they need, whether that’s cuddling on the couch or giving them space to relax. In your home, I treat it with the utmost respect and leave things just as I found them. Communication is key, so I always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
“Melanie is very good with the "fur babies". She takes the time to play with them and make them feel loved. She was prompt and timely on all her visits. She kept the house clean and orderly while we were away. I would highly recommend Melanie for any future "fur baby sitting" needs.”

“Adreahna took great care of our kitty, and our kitty warmed right up to Adreahna. She checked in and uploaded pics of her, which we lived. Kitty wasn’t even mad when we got home! Thank you!!”


“So thankful that Amanda was able to keep a check on our pooch while we explored the Blue Ridge area! Don't hesitate to book with her if you need some pet love for your furry friend. :)”
