Heidi K.	I'm Heidi and I have a shy dachshund and a couple of ginger tabby cats. I'm an occupational therapist by trade and I love to read. I've been in Charlotte for 15 years. I love the Queen City!
Julie F.	I'm Julie and this is my pandemic puppy Abra, aka the love of my life! She & I love nature and going for long walks. I would love to spend some time with your furry friend also.
Christina M.	I'm originally from Miami, FL where my love for animals started! My first pets were fish, then gerbils, a cat and my first dog when I was 11 years old. My first dog Maxx was a Bichon Frise and a few years later we added Muffin a Toy Poodle to our family. My childhood dogs have passed but today I am a dog mom to Maggie a rescue and Maui a Samoyed. My pet sitting career started as a pre-teen when neighbors and friend started asking me for help. As an adult, I've done dog sitting in my home as well as drop in visits/walking. I will always treat your pet like my own!
Isabel M.	I'm your crazy animal enthusiast girl. I love all kinds of animals from small to big and all shapes & sizes. Me and your pet will be the best of friends. I have alot of experience with different breeds of animals. Can't wait to start this journey with you!
Merly A.	I've been a dog walker for 10 years so I definitely know how to handle dogs as well as understand their behavior. I'm patient, calm, and responsible, I take my job seriously as I make the pet my number one priority. It'd be a great honor to care for your pet and I'll definitely make sure that it is happy under my care.
Martha B.	I've been a Doggie and Kitty Lover ever since I can remember ~ mine and others pets too! I've loved & cared for my beloved Australian Shepherd, Boomer, for 16 years, my precious Torti, Lily, for 17 years, and 2 Shelties, Sammy and Spicey for 12 and 14 years. I'm happy to say I have a new Collie puppy, Molly, who is an incredible joy in my life ❤
Shari S.	I've been a life-long dog lover, taking care of pets that belonged to my family as well as others. I'm also a professional dog trainer, so I know a lot about dog-handling skills, a pup's communication/body language and the importance of your pet's structured routines. I know your fur baby is your family and will take care of them just like you would.
Dan F.	I've owned and been befriended by many dogs over the years. They've come in many breeds sizes and personalities and they've all left happy memories.
Steve R.	I’m a huge pet lover and eager to watch your best friends!
ILYA M.	I’m a retired accountant with a lifelong love for animals. After stepping away from my professional career, I found myself looking for a meaningful way to spend my time — something that brings me joy and allows me to give back. That’s when I realized that my love for pets, especially dogs and cats, is precisely where I want to focus my energy. I’ve been a devoted pet owner for over 25 years, and caring for animals has always come naturally to me. Now, I’m excited to turn that passion into something more by becoming a dedicated dog (or cat) walker and sitter. I have the time, patience, and heart to care for each pet as if they were my own — and I look forward to bringing that same care to the families I work with.
Stephanie S.	I’m an experienced and compassionate fur baby sitter specializing in cats and dogs, offering both overnight stays and regular pet sitting services. With a deep love for animals, I prioritize their comfort and well-being, ensuring they feel at ease while you’re away. I tailor my care to each pet’s specific needs, whether it’s sticking to their routine, administering medication, or providing plenty of playtime and exercise. You can trust that your furry friends will receive loving, reliable care and attention while you’re gone. I have 2 fur babies myself so I know what it is to make sure they are taken care of.
Margaret Claire G.	I’m Claire. I’ve owned dogs and cats all my life.. along with a few hamsters and Guinea pigs. .. I enjoy taking care of animals, large or small. I have a dog Malti-poo Mika and a cat Penny. ❤️ Outside of pet sitting I enjoy cooking and baking.
Gabriel T.	I’ve been a dog owner for 8+ years and have made her a part of every aspect of my life. Walking around in NYC has always been a favorite pastime of mine, so I can’t wait to see who I’ll be walking with!
Lori A.	I’ve been a massage therapist for 25 years. I have been in the pet sitting industry for 3 years. I believe my massage experience transfers over to the care of pets because I can love on them and make them feel special. Who doesn’t love a good back scratch! I enjoy hiking so I love being outside especially with a furry friend. I can get into playtime tossing balls and all types of toys. I will love your pets as my own.
Alexandria V.	I’ve grown up with pets, always had them! Although I am a Western Carolina graduate, my passion for animals led me to becoming a certified groomer! I’m experienced with many breeds, and treat them like my own! I have a rescue pit mix, Boomer who is spoiled with care and love and that is exactly what I’ll bring to your pets! I look forward to caring for your fur babies!
Robert W.	Last year I retired from the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department after 28 years of service. Since then I have been walking dogs. It's a pleasant way to spend your days and interact with different dogs.
Jennifer M.	Loving, patient, and caring dog sitter/walker with 20+ years experience. Experience with large and small dogs. Eager to walk and play with your dog no matter the weather. Your fur baby will be well cared for in your absence.
Rion M.	My commitment to animal care extends beyond professional settings, as I also have several pets of my own and have been working in shelters for years. This personal experience has honed my ability to manage the responsibilities that come with caring for animals, including regular exercise, dietary management, and recognizing the signs of emotional and physical distress. I understand that each dog has its own set of needs and preferences, and I am prepared to adapt my approach to meet these individual requirements, ensuring a happy and healthy pet at the end of every walk. I am not only a dog walker; I am a vigilant guardian who prioritizes the safety and happiness of the animals in my care.
Allison W.	My family got a dog when I was 2 years old, and animals have surrounded me since. I currently have a black lab/hound mix and a bearded dragon, but I also used to live with my sister's 7 cats and 2 horses. I also previously worked with Little Friends before they merged with Swifto!
Amy H.	My name is Amy and I look forward to caring for your fur babies! I have been dog walking and pet sitting in the Lake Norman area since I moved here from Connecticut in 2017. Working in healthcare previously, I can't think of a better way to spend my days than with your precious pups (or kitties)! I grew up with cats, guinea pigs, fish and various other small animals. My Boston Terrier, Maximus was my constant companion and adventure buddy traveling to 26 states with me. In my spare time I love cooking, hiking, traveling and enjoying good food with family & friends.
