you will be very happy with our services as we are very personable with you & want to get to know you & your animals well before you leave them in our care.

Hi! My name is Colleen and I’m 26 years old. I have lived in Raleigh, NC for the past seventeen years. I am originally from upstate New York. I am an animal lover and have been ever since I was a kid.

I am currently working on my bachelor’s degree in Psychology, by taking online classes, with dreams of counseling teenagers in the future. I received my associate’s degree in arts from Wake Technical Community College.

I had a West-Highland White Terrier when I was a child. Ever since then I have always loved walking, playing, and sitting pets! My boyfriend has a Pit-bull mix that I watch and play with daily. Her name is Africa and she is in the picture above. We play fetch with her huge collection of bones and go on long adventurous walks! I don’t know who is more excited when I get home, Africa or I.

In my free time I love to workout, read, and make jewelry.
You can see my website here - Tr eeRoundDesigns do ask if you want to see our designs in person. I look forward to pet sitting all your fury friends in the future!

Monica, I am a 28 year old non-smoker.
I love being outside, and try to live a happy, healthy lifestyle. I have had pets pretty much all of my life. I had two small poodles at different times during my childhood, two parakeets, and my mom got our first cat in 2003. In the late part of 2007, I adopted a cute little stray black cat that my boyfriend found one night. Her name is Lola, and she is an adorable, sweet, and VERY talkative cat. A few weeks later at a visit to the vet, we found out she was pregnant, and while I found homes for her other kittens, we kept one. He is a male gray and black tabby named Linus. Lola is sweet, docile, and a little skittish around people at first. Since I got her fixed, she has gotten over some of her skittish behavior and craves attention! Linus is also very sweet, and very mischievous! I love animals very much, and consider these two little tykes to be my “children.”

I am currently taking online classes with the University of Maryland University College where I am majoring in Computer Science and a minor in Forensic Science. I transferred there from classes at Wake Tech Community College where my focus was in Criminal Justice. I’m very excited to join Cindy and her team of sitters.

Taylor & Blake, we are 28 & 34 year old husband and wife pet sitters.

We have 2 French Bulldogs, Iggy Pup is our 4 year old male that we have had since he was 8 weeks old and Lola is our 7 year old female that we adopted 3 years ago.

Taylor has been lucky enough to have had almost every pet available, from your basic domestic house breeds to large farm animals, she even had 2 goats at various times. Taylor has a Bachelor’s degree in Communications and Accounting at NCSU.

Jess
Full-Time Pet Sitter / Mid-Day Dog Walker / Live-In Overnight Pet Care
Services Cameron Village, NCSU, Oberlin Rd, Canterbury, St Mary's St Area, Boylan Heights, Five Points, all of the Downtown Raleigh/Glenwood South Condos

My name is Jess and I’m 28 years old. I am originally from Richmond Virginia, but I’ve been living in North Carolina for the last 16 years. I spent time in both the eastern and western parts of the state, before moving to the Triangle in 2003. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from UNC-Chapel Hill. I later went to grooming school, became a pet stylist, and managed the Brier Creek Petco grooming salon for 5 years. Now I’m working on my Master’s degree in Environmental Policy from American Public University and am spending some quality time at home with my 2 babies, a silky terrier named Oso and a cat who is affectionately known as Ollie-wood.

I’ve had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember. When I was kid, my parents would rescue any hurt animals that they found. I got to help nurse birds, squirrels, and chipmunks back to health throughout my childhood. I’ve volunteered at numerous shelters and sanctuaries for many years, including the country’s largest sanctuary, Best Friends in Kanab, Utah.

I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, hamsters, snakes, lizards, birds, and fish. I look forward to making many more furry friends working for Cindy as a pet sitter!!

Gretchen
Full-Time Pet Sitter / Dog Walker
Services Oakwood, Mordecai, Village at Pilot Mill, Blount St, Atlantic
Ave area, the Downtown Raleigh Condos & Apts, & Five Points

My name is Gretchen and I’m 34 years old. I have had a passion for animals since I was a child. From nursing injured animals, to helping the abandoned babies. I volunteer for SPCA, Mote Marine, WWF, and Save the Manatees. I have
adopted bats, wolves, otters, and manatees.

I am the proud mom of 4 fluffy children.
Nala (tabby cat), Destiny (cocker/beagle), Marble (tabby cat), and Tobin (hedgehog), all of which are rescues. I am very excited to be working

Stephanie
Pet Sitter / Dog Walker
Services Glen Eden, Ridge Rd, Oberlin Rd / Cameron Village Area, Crabtree, Five Points & Hayes Barton neighborhoods as well as the Downtown Raleigh Condos & Apts

My name is Stephanie and I have lived in Raleigh for 14 years. I am originally from Fayetteville, NC, and have lived in Greenville, NC as well. I am a single Mom of one son, Noah, who is a senior at Needham Broughton High School this year!
I have two other babies as well; Mister and Nem, they are brothers adopted from Wendell, NC. Mister is also known as "White Whisker Of Wisdom", as he has one singular white whisker that appeared when he was a kitten after a thunder storm. This is true! How that happened I'm not quite sure, but it did. He is a little frightened of thunder. Nem on the other hand, is not afraid of anything. He is a character, and definitely has 'the cute'! He likes to jump up to meet your hand for pets, which is just about the cutest thing ever!

I grew up in a household with many pets, my Mom is a true dog-lover and she passed this wonderful trait onto me. When I was younger we had bigger dogs, and as my Mom has aged her dogs have become smaller. So, I have experience with all sizes and shapes. Growing up, I also volunteered with her at the SPCA, which was a great experience! Thank you, Mom! I have always had dogs, but where I live now, I'm unable to have them. :( One day again, though. I also have experience with reptiles; snakes and iguanas, as my ex-husband owned these. So, if you have reptilian pets who need care, I am able to care for them too!

I am also a Licensed Esthetician (skin-care therapist). At this time, I freelance in that field, but have worked in the spa industry in the past. I have a passion for caring for others, all others; human and animal. I look forward to meeting your babies and you! Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your, and your pet's, lives. :)

Lisa
Back-up Dog Walker for all of our mid-day walk Clients

Hi, I’m Lisa! I’ve been an animal lover and advocate for over three decades. I grew up in a rural area of western NC as the daughter of a farmer. We grew crops of corn and potatoes, and raised cows, horses, chickens, and pigs alongside our own pet cats and dogs. I have a huge heart, unconditional love and unending patience for all animals. Over the years, I’ve gained lots of experience caring for a wide variety of all ages and sizes: dogs, cats, parakeets, cockatiels, pot-bellied pigs, ferrets, rabbits, aquatic life (from snails to a breeding tank of cichlids), and all
sorts of other critters including mice, gerbils, and even evil hamsters.
I am also a former pet rat mom involved in rescue and adoption, so there is a special place in my heart for rodents.

I’m married, and live with my husband in Five Points. We have three children that are completely spoiled – our cats Dusty, Matty, and Banshee. Dusty is a senior cat with some health issues, so I have current experience dealing with special needs (emotionally and medically). My husband and I run our own small business - Rock Out Graphics. We provide affordable graphic design, printing, and booking agent services, specializing in rock n’ roll advertising and promotion.

I’m very excited to be working for Cindy because I can’t imagine a better way to spend some of my free time than loving and being loved by the most innocent creatures on earth. Every one of them is precious and unique and I think we can learn a lot from them on several levels. I especially love my time with our canine friends and am addicted to doggie kisses! I’m really looking forward to meeting
you and especially your sweet dogs.
