Dog Walking Ashley Retreat

“Wonderful sitter! Would highly recommend. She was personable, responsive, and took great care of my babies. She also took care of my plants on short notice. Will definitely rebook her again and would recommend for all of your dog sitting needs.”

About: With years of professional dog walking and sitting experience, I’ve cared for all manner of canines. I can handle puppies as well as senior citizens and love spending time with them giving love and getting exercise. I work from home with a flexible schedule so am able to leave periodically throughout the day to care for pets. Please be aware prior to booking that my daughter (10 months old as of April 2025) comes with me on my walks and drop ins. She rides in a backpack carrier and does not come out of it, but only request a booking with me if you and your pet and comfortable with that. I have been entrusted with clients’ homes for years and am confident and able to abide by your requests and needs. I act with respect when allowed access to a client’s home and take care to honor their wishes regarding their animals and household.

“Very responsive & easy to communicate with, especially sending updates about my puppy! She is reliable & I will definitely continue using her services! :)”

About: Hey! I’m Kristin 🩷 a stay-at-home mom and a lifelong Lowcountry local, CofC grad, and a big-time animal lover! I live in Summers Corner in Summerville, SC with my husband, twin boys, and our dachshund weenie. We have a fully fenced-in yard, lots of room to play, and a cozy environment perfect for dogs. I have a flexible schedule and can easily work around your needs. References are always available if you’d like to chat with other happy pet parents! Whether your pup loves fetch, belly rubs, or just a sunny spot to nap, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. 💛 As a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m home most of the day and can easily give your pet consistent attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family! I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, whether that means scheduled feedings, regular potty breaks, walks, medication, or downtime. We have a fully fenced-in yard for supervised outdoor play, and a senior dachshund who is gentle and used to sharing his space. I never leave pets unattended for long and always pay close attention to each animal’s comfort, energy level, and needs.

“Alethea is absolutely awesome! She took extra time to meet my sweet boy before we started and has done very well with him. I would highly recommend her!”

“Chey was an absolute godsend to my family during a last minute need for dog walking services! I contacted her about 3 days before having to go out of town and she responded promptly and was able to arrange a meet and greet the very next day. She was insanely attentive to my little pup, Gertie, for 2 weeks while I was out of town and her daily updates and pics of Gertie were personable and very much appreciated! Chey is reliable, communicative and overall an awesome resource for all of us dog owners who are over protective of our 4 legged babies. Thank you Chey!!! 💕💕”

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Starting out with cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and snakes. Family and friends always reach out to me to babysit their animals when going out of town because I will go out and beyond for animals I work from home, I’m home 99% of the day. The only time I leave my house is to the store or to get something to eat. I have a fenced off yard with security cameras surrounding my house. I never take my animals to a location where I think they can get harmed or where they are uncomfortable at

About: I grew up with big dogs (dobermans and rottweilers). I began dog sitting and walking in middle school and have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I got my first fur baby of my own, who is 10, my freshman year of college. In her prime, she was able to run seven miles, so I am happy to take your dog for a jog or long walk. My girls have also had quite a few surgeries so I have experience with post operation care and daily medication administration. We are also transitioning to the senior dog phase and dealing with arthritis and managing the stairs. I work three 12 hour shifts a week - usually Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday but have open availability the rest of the week. I use dog walkers frequently with my own girls so I understand how important flexibility is. I will follow the schedule provided and am happy to take your dog for a walk or run or just let them out. It's important to make sure all parties feel comfortable!

About: I have lots of experience with taking care of dogs and cats. I am comfortable taking care of dogs of all sizes. I have always had dogs in my house growing up, and I know the responsibilities it takes to care for an animal. I will treat your pet as if they are my own. I have taken care of many kinds of pets from puppies and cats to elderly dogs. I have been pet sitting since high school and know what is required for a happy pet. I am very detail oriented and will make sure your pet has all their needs met. This includes potty breaks, food, water, medications, play time, and quality time. I can take your dog for a walk, do a few drop in visits, or do an overnight depending on your pet’s needs or what you are comfortable with. I am currently a rising junior at CofC studying Biology. I will be home (Summerville, SC) for the summer and can take care of pets all throughout the day. During the school year (Downtown Charleston) I can do drop in’s or walks in the morning before my classes, and after my classes in the afternoon, evenings, or overnight. I have an elderly golden lab and a 3 year old Weimaraner. I help take care of them by spending lots of time with them, taking them on walks, providing medication, feeding them, fetching, and giving them lots of love and support. I am very familiar with energetic dogs, and I know that they need lots of attention.

“Fast reply, communicative,and friendly.”

About: I’m a dog mom of a husky and toddler and am looking to fill some time with more animal cuddles! Let me get the chance to get to know you and your pets and ease your mind while you need to leave them by themselves! I’m working part time with only a couple people a day but feel free to reach out and see what I can work with for you! I have many years of family experience with animals as well as some years training, so I’m used to many different personalities and breeds! I’m always willing to talk about any concerns and be open on whether I can work with them!

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my mother served on the board of a Jack Russell rescue — which meant at least three of them running around at any given time. My first dog as an adult was Molly, a border collie who never met a person she didn't like. Every dog I've cared for since has gotten that same love and attention. When it comes to housesitting, I treat every home like my own. I bring in the mail, water the plants, vary the lights, take out the trash, and send regular photos and updates so you can truly relax. You come home to exactly what you left — sometimes with a very happy pet (or two or three...) at the door. My availability is genuinely flexible — some weeks I'm fully available, others I'm part-time, so I always recommend checking my calendar for current openings. What stays consistent is my commitment: when I'm with your pet, I am fully present and fully focused. I work around your schedule, your pet's routine, and whatever your family needs. I provide care exclusively in your home — because that's where your pet is most comfortable, and comfort matters. I believe the safest pet is an attentive one, so I give every animal in my care my complete attention. Your home is treated with the same respect I'd give my own, and your pet's routine, quirks, and needs are taken seriously from day one. In rare emergency situations, I am able to bring your pet into my home for overnight care, so they are never left without a loving hand. You won't have to wonder if everything is okay — I'll make sure you know.

About: I have always loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up here in Corey Woods, some of my furry neighbors included Shorty & Sammy, Spud & Tater, and Pepper. I'm currently studying animal behavior/psychology at The Open University. I've also been caring for animals for four years, and that includes three dogs, (not including my current clients), and three cats (whom I own). I take care of every animal like they were my own, and strive to ensure 100% satisfaction- from human and animals alike. Thanks for reading, and I hope to see you soon! I work full time as a security guard however I’m available on the weekends and work overnight, so I’m available during the day and on the weekends! If given a schedule, I’ll stick to it! As a security guard and pet parent, I’ll make sure your pet/animal companion is safe and happy.

“Jennifer's care and management of our girls, Fiona the pittie, and Fiona, the African Grey, is superb. She has extensive and practical experience in the care of many species, and applies her knowledge to our girls. She has taken initiative to help Fiona (and me) to work on Fiona leash manners, and is cultivating a relationship with Wanda. Jennifer is prompt and takes your input seriously. I highly recommend her.”

About: I take the time to understand every dog’s personality—whether they’re shy, energetic, or somewhere in between—so each walk or visit feels safe, fun, and tailored just for them. Communication is a big priority for me too; you’ll always get clear updates, photos, and notes after every outing. Pet care is a natural part of my day-to-day life, and my schedule is very flexible, which means I can easily accommodate walks. Whether it’s early-morning outings, midday potty breaks, or evening strolls, I’m able to adjust my routine to fit yours. Your pet’s comfort and consistency always come first. I stick to your dog’s routine, providing safe, consistent walks tailored to their energy and needs. Each walk includes attention, patience, and clear updates so you always know how they did.

“Amaris was a great! She communicated well with me and took the time to provide me with updates. Echo was happy and seemed to enjoy herself around her.”

About: Over the course of my life I’ve owned dogs, cats, rabbits, and multiple different types of reptiles. Currently my family has two dogs, a cat, and a bearded dragon that I care for. I have worked at a vet clinic, and gained a lot of experience with animals. I am currently playing college soccer and studying biology with a concentration in pre-vet. I’m home from college for the summer so I have a lot of extra free time that I’m hoping to fill. Plus my job right now is very flexible. The last time I pet sat at someone’s house, the dogs had a fenced in yard with a doggy door, so I didn’t have to do much other than feed them, make sure everything was right in the house, and give them attention. With my own dogs I have experience giving them meds, walking them, feeding them, playing with them, and training them to do tricks.
