About: I am a registered nurse that works 3-4 days a week, and have 2 Labrador retrievers at home as well as my cat Nora. Needless to say, I know how hard it is to find care for pets at home while I’m away. I can handle walking two young Labrador retrievers at the same time, and am well familiar with their abundance of energy. I grew up with two small dogs, so I really work well with animals of all sizes! I would love to help you lighten your load and take your babies out for walks or check on in them when you need! I am very flexible, just communicate with me and I’ll do my best to help you out. My schedule varies a lot, especially during the holidays. So, feel free to put the request in and I will get back to you as soon as I can to let you know if I am available. I have a lot of free time on my days off and would love to spend time with more pets! I handle all pets with care, show them that I am trust worthy and build this over time. I will give them breakfast or dinner if you ask!
About: I've been actively caring for animals for more than 14 years :). Growing up, I regularly pet-sat for family friends, and my family often took in stray cats and litters of kittens, giving me hands-on experience with pets of all ages and personalities. Today, I have three cats of my own and continue to pet sit for friends and family. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, a consistent routine, or extra patience and attention, I'm committed to providing loving and reliable care while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a full-time job with a very flexible hybrid schedule. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I can work from anywhere, which gives me plenty of flexibility to provide care, check-ins, walks, or companionship throughout the day. I currently specialize in occasional bookings, vacation care, and drop-in visits. At this time, I’m not accepting recurring weekly walking schedules. I'm also fully available on weekends. At home, I care for my three cats with my partner, which allows me the flexibility to accommodate pet sitting while ensuring every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to keeping them happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine while you're away. I provide care that is tailored to each pet’s needs and routine, whether in my home or in a client’s home. In my client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any specific instructions provided. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and companionship while their owners are away, along with regular updates for peace of mind. In my own home, pets are cared for in a calm and safe environment. I ensure they are supervised, given a consistent routine, and treated like part of the family. I currently have three cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to create a clean, low-stress space where animals feel secure and cared for.
“Thank you for everything you did for Brody!! Thank you so much for filling in at short notice. You did great!! I look forward to working with you in the future! Emma is such a delight and kind soul! I felt good leaving my little guy with her!”
“Lauren helped me out very last-minute with a dog walk! She took Louie on a 30-minute walk and he came back happy and tired. She was easy to communicate with and I would rebook her. Definitely recommend Lauren!”
About: I have looked over 100+ dogs in 20 years. I worked at camp bow wow as a camp counselor. I Excel in training becauseof my abilityto communicate to animals. I do have epilepsy so dogs tend to gravitate towards me and listen to me more clearly. I adapt to any dog i come in contact with. I am available 9am to 2pm every single day. I do work full time from 3 or 4pm to 1230am so I am looking for part time positive engaging work. My pup was the king of his castle however he was required to listen. I utilize Victoria Stillwel's training techniques. I prefer to give enrichment activities that make situations fun. I am a pastry chef so I do make puppy safe treats that assist in their diet requirements. I also do engaging bath times utilizing massage therapy to create a less anxious situation.
“I had such a great experience! My dog was sick, but well cared for, and clearly loved/needed the attention. Communication was easy and consistent, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking again!”

About: Hello! My name is Croft and I am WFH Marketing Professional & full-time animal lover. I am a Charleston native. I have grown up raising and being around 4-5 dogs at any given time - currently have a mixed baby of my own. I love to exercise with dogs! I am a beach bum and avid surfer so if your pup likes the beach, I would love to take them. I will run, walk, play with, and also lay around lazily with dogs! I can administer medications to your pup, having also worked with large animal vets with my horses. I live downtown but will travel for overnights. I love the outdoors and find animal company to be the best company. I cannot wait to meet your furry friend :) I currently work from home with only a few site visits a week. I own my house and have a backyard as well as a park pretty close by. My schedule varies, depending on how I like to get outside, but I am only ever away from my home for an hour or two at a time. I have a fenced in yard and a very sweet, seven year-old boy dog who loves company. I am very involved in the community and if your dog likes to get out, I would love to take them to the dog park or the beach or even to my friendly gym!
“Christina is amazing! My dog doesn’t take to everyone easily but he loved Christina right away. She always writes a cute note about her visit and keeps me updated on when she’s headed to my place. I’ll definitely ask her to take care of my dog again in the future!”
“Sara did a wonderful job helping with Pinkie while I was gone. Pinkie was calmer when I got back from my day trip. She seemed to like her new friend visiting and taking her on a walk. It helped ease my mind. I love the map and picture update. I booked Sara for an overnight next.”
About: I've always loved being around dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. I take the time to make pets feel comfortable, whether that means going on long walks, playing their favorite games, or giving them a quiet place to relax. I'm reliable, attentive, and committed to following each owner's instructions so their pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while they're away. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I'm a student, so my schedule is organized around my classes. I'm available before and after class, in the evenings, and on most weekends. I keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, so your pet will receive reliable, attentive care. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet I care for. In a client’s home, I will follow their instructions closely, maintain their pet’s normal routine, and respect their space. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while keeping their safety my top priority. I also keep homes clean and secure and provide regular updates with photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

I had an emergency trip, and Pam was an absolute godsend. My dog isn’t the easiest to care for, but Pam went above and beyond to make sure Aurora was safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Thank you so much, Pam! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful caretaker for their fur babies.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Avondale. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
