Dog Walkers in Barker Heights, NC

“Sierra has been walking my dog for several months now, is dependable, communicates well, and lets me know her schedule in advance. It's such a load off my mind knowing Champ will get outside for a walk, and I can focus on work. I highly recommend Sierra.”

“Kira has excellent communication, provides plenty of updates and always uploads pictures of the walks.”

About: Animals have been my life since the day I was born. In fact, "cat" was the first word I ever said (true story!). I grew up on a small farm caring for horses, donkeys, cows, chickens, barn cats, and more. In my adult life, I've always had at least one or two furry friends around. I've cared for senior cats, rescue cats, pups of all shapes and sizes ... even a fully trained German Shepherd (who comes everywhere with me!). Right now, I have a fully trained German Shepherd (Dally) and two rescue cats (Otto and Harper). I try to incorporate them into my daily life as much as possible. The cats sometimes explore our property and supervise as my daughter and I do yard work. Dally comes everywhere with me (hiking, bike rides, camping, neighborhood walks, out-of-state family vacations, and more). My schedule is their schedule and I wouldn't have it any other way! I prioritize calm, reassuring environments and practice positive reinforcement (rather than disciplinary punishment) when training, teaching, or exposing my pets to new things. Soft, sweet, and encouraging is my approach.

“Christine is great with our dog Daisy Mae. She has a great calming energy about her which is exactly what my sometimes hyper pooch needs. Definitely recommend!”

About: Able to bond with animals easily. Have had several dogs over the span of their life ( some for 17 years ) Know what to look for in regards to medical, exercise, and lap time. Would treat them like my own, and mine are my family. I am retired, have dependable transportation, and always ten minutes early. I am retired and have very few obligations. When I commit to a schedule for your pet, that becomes my priority. Accepting all schedule suggestions. Dax..a mixed breed rescue is going on 10 this year. He has a porch and an outside dog run along the side of the house. He tends to venture off to the neighbors dogs when he finds the opportunity. So he is leash walked when we go out. He has a free run of the house, as well as my brothers dog when she visits ( bernadoodle )

About: Hi everyone! I am a huge animal lover. Growing up, I was surrounded by dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, and chickens.

About: With over 14 years of dedicated pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My passion for animals started early, growing up surrounded by pets, which naturally led me to care for dogs professionally. Over the years, I’ve provided loving boarding, reliable dog walking, and attentive in-home care, ensuring every dog feels safe, happy, and at ease. I specialize in creating a stress-free environment where dogs can relax, play, and thrive. Whether it’s managing high-energy pups with engaging activities, caring for senior dogs with special needs, or simply offering belly rubs and companionship, I tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality. Your dog will enjoy a comfortable, secure setting with plenty of outdoor time, personalized attention, and, of course, lots of love. My goal is to make your pet feel like they’re part of the family while you’re away, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I work from home, which means your pup will have my company for most, if not all, of the day. This allows me to provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. Whether I’m at my desk or taking a break, your dog will never feel alone. I can easily adjust my schedule to meet their needs, ensuring they get the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I have 2 acres of fully fenced-in property, providing a safe and secure environment where your furry friend can run, play, and explore freely. The spacious yard allows for plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and tail-wagging fun, all within a secure boundary for your peace of mind. I’ve created an environment built on trust and safety, ensuring your pup has the freedom to enjoy the outdoors while being closely supervised. It’s the perfect blend of space, security, and comfort for your dog to feel right at home.

About: I am currently only have one puppy of my own but thought it would be a good time to try to care for others with all my heart. It is my daily routine right now. ;) I’m looking to start a pet and house sitting business in the area dedicated to the people that live here and love their animals as much as I loved mine, dedicated to my baby boy that I just lost way before his time. 🥹 It is an Rv right on the lake with just two human animals and a new pup at the moment with a partially fenced back yard. I can put up a small mobile fence, but also have plenty of space to put up long leashes to the clothes line, etc. when we’re hanging outside and can do plenty of leashed walking. The street is quiet and full of wonderful people that love their animals.

“Anna was a great help! She was prompt & sent plenty of information & pictures. Would definitely trust her to keep my baby again”
