Puppies are cute. Puppies are Fun. Puppies are a lot of work.

Our Puppy Care Program Lets You Focus On Your Career.

Who doesn’t love puppies? But let’s face it, puppies are a lot of work. They’re especially difficult if you work long hours and can’t make it home during the day to let your new puppy out for a potty break every few hours.

Our puppy care program is perfect for puppy parents who want to focus on their careers without worrying about how they’re going to raise a new puppy. Our licensed, bonded and insured Wilmington & Hampstead, NC pet sitters will customize a program specific to your puppy’s age.

We’ll drop in and provide potty breaks throughout the day, provide fresh food and water, teach your puppy how to walk on a leash and teach your puppy good manners.

Service Area: Our fully licensed, bonded and insured dog walkers are available in Wilmington, NC, Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and Hampstead, NC. 

How does your puppy care work?

Register as a new client.

Sign up to become a new client and complete your online profile. You’ll provide detailed care instructions for your puppy.

Schedule an in-home consultation.

Once we get your completed profile, we’ll schedule a meet and greet in your home. You’ll get to meet your pet sitter where you’ll review your puppy’s routine.

We will customize a schedule based on your puppy's age.

Puppies can generally hold their bladder one hour for every month of age. We’ll start with more frequent visits the younger your puppy and gradually increase the length of time between visits as your puppy ages.

Focus on your career and we'll handle the rest.

We will automate your scheduling and billing so there’s nothing more for you to do. We’ll send visit report cards and pictures after each visit so you know what’s going on with your puppy. The only thing you’ll need to worry about is your career.

This depends on your puppy’s age. Puppys can generally hold their bladder for one hour for each month of age. So a puppy two months old should have a potty break every two hours. A puppy that is three months old should have a potty break every three hours. Depending on your work schedule, puppies get 2-4 visits per day.
