Dog Walking Biltmore Forest

“My dog has a lot of separation anxiety, and Kristen was amazing with her. The communication, photos, and updates made such a difference, and I felt completely at ease knowing Rosie and Pete were loved and cared for. They’re my babies, and I’m so thankful to have found someone who understands that. Thank you!”

“Grayson is SO great with Tela! They took to each other right away. Thanks so much for your help and Tela can’t wait to see you again!”

About: I've taken care of many dogs, cats, fish, and even the occasional bird. I had my own pet sitting side business while I was in college in Tampa and have missed I ever since I moved!! I am currently looking to switch careers so my appointment book will be pretty open in the near future. I'd love for this to develop into my full time job. I am currently renting so I'm not offering boarding services. But I'm offering drop in visits not only to walk, feed, and clean up after pets but to spend some time with them so they are not lonely

About: I'm no stranger to high-need dogs! I had a Chihuahua who, bless his heart, was a mess. He was no more than 6lbs, and had heart, dental, and bone issues. He always rated my service to him highly, and he taught me a lot for which I'm grateful. In his memory, and to keep our other senior dog, Buddy, company, we adopted a chocolate labrador named Roxanne, who is blind. Pets like me because I am empathetic and caring. I understand why they might be acting the way that they act, that most of the time, it's just fear, and with that knowledge, I am able to approach the situation with confidence and tact. Or maybe they're just super excitable! I am a calming presence who knows how to party when the occassion's right. I work part-time and study, which gives me a lot of freedom for extracurriculars (pet sitting!). I am completely free on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Your house, your rules! I will follow all of your normal houseguest rules while also making your pet feel like they're the ones writing my checks. Safe, comfortable medication adminstration? Done. Clean up inside or outside the house? Done. Stain clean up before it sets? Absolutely. I will go the extra mile to make it seem like time froze while you were gone.

“Bess is so wonderful with our sweet pup! We are grateful to have her recurring, reliable help making certain he is well loved and well exercised. He always has the biggest smile on his face in the photos Bess sends of their time together…and he is always tuckered out when we return from those long days at work. Thank you, Bess!”

“My dog takes time to warm up to people and Levon has done a great job being patient and loving with my German Shepard! Levon is great at handling dogs and gives great updates on the walks!”

About: I have over 20 years of experience walking, sitting and caring for dogs. I know how hard it is to leave your fur child in the hands of a stranger and I treat every animal as if it were my own. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands and receiving all the love, care, and attention they deserve. I also work from home so I give lots of attention and pets throughout the day to your pups. I grew on a small farm and have a natural ability to understand animals. I have trained my own dog and assisted in training a boarder collie puppy my parents owned. I feel comfortable sitting/walking dogs of various sizes and breeds. I've also had a cat growing up and have taken care of neighbors cats for extended periods of time. I live a healthy and active style and would love to take your dog on hikes or runs around the area while you are away. If they are more of a couch potato I am also happy to snuggle up on the couch with them equally. I work remote so would be available on weekdays to take our pet out frequently. I am free on weekends to spend all of my time with them as well! I don't have a yard but am close to many outdoor places and live an active lifestyle. My home is comfortable and safe for pets.

“Jessie was awesome with my 2 labs! He not only walked them, but he coached me and helped train them to walk with Halti's, which I could never have done on my own. I would highly recommend him as I believe in 3 short days he put us on a path for a much happier walking future!”

About: I have raised a puppy from 7 weeks old to 3.5 years old, and I also took care of my childhood 15 year old senior chocolate lab, giving me firsthand experience with the full spectrum of dog ages. I have spent time training my own dogs and learning about different training techniques, which I genuinely enjoy. My experience includes working with reactive dogs, and I believe in supporting owners without judgment. I am happy to work alongside them to manage and support pets' behavior. Additionally, I have experience administering medication to dogs, so I am comfortable and capable of handling any special medical needs your pet may have. My commitment to providing attentive, personalized care ensures that your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities! Use my promo code to get $20 off your first booking! Linked here: https://www.rover.com/sit/inesf75094 OR use the Promo Code: INESF75094 I am currently working remotely, so I have plenty of time to play with your animals! I am available weekdays and weekends to walk, or conduct drop ins! I care for pets in my client's homes with the utmost dedication and attention to their individual needs. I have experience with my family dog of 15 years, a puppy I rescued and gave to my sister, and a dog I rescued from the streets who has become the light of my life. I have walked and cared for all three by taking them on regular walks, adventures, and hikes, always advocating for their space and listening to their cues. I ensure they are fed high-quality food and treats and take them to the vet as needed. I also prioritize their safety and comfort by taking them out early in the morning and late at night to avoid the heat. My approach is rooted in love and respect, and I always aim to create a nurturing environment where they feel happy and secure.

About: I cared for family dogs, cats & horses through childhood & my 20s. Here in Asheville, I've had two dogs (one at a time) for 13 years. I am attuned to safety & health first; then I focus on play/walking to provide fun & exercise for emotional, mental & physical stimulation. In addition to having food, water, shelter & a comfortable temperature, all pets need to feel safe, loved & respected. I am gentle, thorough, attentive, & caring, & I follow all instructions carefully. I have worked with puppies through senior dogs as well as my flighty, 52-lb. 6-yr-old reactive Pit Bull/Cane Corso rescue, whom I walk daily & hike with weekly. I've used the Behavior Adjustment & Doggy Dan training systems with this sweet companion, who had been abused & neglected before I adopted her at 14 months. I have done drop-in visits for friends for 10 yrs. & can give medications orally, in ears & as injections. Before a first service, I do a meet & greet to get to know you & your furry friend & learn about how your canine relates to people, other dogs, cats, squirrels & rabbits. Activiies include playing fetch, tug of war, food puzzles & your pup's favorites. I'm available for drop-ins and dog walking between 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Also I'm free between 6:00 and 8:00 p.m. I am a fulltime pet care giver. At this time, I do not stay overnight with pets in my home or my clients' homes. Instead, I do 30-minute drop-in visits and 30-minute walks in clients' neighborhoods.

About: I’ve had cats and a previous dog since childhood. I have love for all animals, but cats have won my heart. I love walking dogs and giving them time to run around and get their energy out. I have previously volunteered at Brother Wolf for dog walking and really enjoyed it! I’m currently filling my client caseload so I have more flexibility on the days listed here to offer help and support to your fur baby I’m very attentive to my pets needs, safety, and health. I offer the same to other dogs and cats I have spent time with for friends and family

About: I grew up surrounded by animals from dogs and cats to chickens and so caring for pets has been second nature for as long as I can remember. As an adult, I have volunteered at multiple animal rescue centers and was able to rescue and raise 2 wonderful dogs who were a huge part of our lives until they passed. ​More recently, I’ve worked as a house and pet sitter through TrustedHouseSitters, where homeowners regularly rely on me to care for both their homes and their beloved animals while they’re away. ​Whether your pet needs dedicated supervision, routine medications, or overnight care, I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love I’d give my own. ​What I Offer ​Active Dog Walking All Ages & Sizes: Comfortable handling everything from high-energy puppies to large dogs up to 110 pounds. ​Specialized Care: Experienced in oral and topical medication administration, house sitting, and maintaining consistent daily schedules. ​Peace of Mind: Honest, dependable care for both your pets and your home while you're away. I'm currently working remote in a contract capacity and so my schedule is incredibly flexible! This means that I can adapt my work schedule around your pet's needs! My husband, Jeff, and I have a clean, safe, non-smoking, multi-level home in East Asheville North Carolina. with a small unfenced yard. My home is close to trails and walking paths so me and your beloved pet will have plenty of opportunities to get our daily exercise. When your pet is staying in my home they will have free reign of the home if that's something they're accustomed to! However, if your furry friend has limitations such as crate training requirements, we can certainly accommodate that too! I currently have no other pets, so your pet would be king or queen of the house during thier stay!

About: I have pet sat for friends, family and co workers over the years in addition to always having two of my own cats. I treat all pets as I would want someone to treat mine! 🥰 I am a reservist in the Coast Guard. I only work one weekend a month and am trying to find more work with things I am passionate about. To me, nothing is better than hanging out with furry friends! I have a small fenced in patio and a three bedroom home. I live close to a park and love to go walking! Again, I always treat other people’s pets how I would care for my own.

“Ashley did a fantastic job taking care of our little fur friend! Pics were great and update was thorough. And all at the last minute! Highly recommend if looking for a caring, dependable pet sitter! Will definitely be using her services again. Many thanks Ashley!”

About: I have 2 cats at home and owned a dog for over 12 years (unfortunately he recently has passed) so I have experience with both. I have also been dog walking for the past few year and recently started offering boarding as well as drop in services I’m currently working downtown full time so current availability is on the weekends however open to over night stays over Fridays and Mondays as there is someone home at all times. I enjoy going for long walks and I am very gentle with pets when they’re first meeting me or my pets so I give them plenty of space to ease them into being comfortable around us.

“Morgan did a wonderful job with our nervous dog. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. It was obvious that she cared a lot about taking the best care of our girl!”

Quinn M.

About: I have always been very passionate about animals and grew up caring for them anyway I could. Over the years, I’ve had experience caring for a variety of animals, including rehabilitating wildlife. I regularly care for family pets when they are out of town and really do enjoy spending time with the animals. I have fostered both cats and dogs through AHS, and brother wolf which gave me experience with medical care, administrating medicine, and being able to handle animals with different needs and personalities. I am very committed to being able to give your pets a comfortable and safe environment while with me. I currently work part time so I have lots of time for the animals! I have my own pets at home so I have a general understanding of what is needed and I have cared for a variety of pets. I do prefer to board at clients homes, where animals are in their own homes and more likely to be comfortable. When in a clients home, I absolutely treat the space and pets as if it was my own. As a pet owner myself, I know how it is always worrying about if your pets are safe and being cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind by by providing reliable, and compassionate care for your pets while caring for your home. I am always happy to communicate, give updates, and answer any questions so please feel free to reach out if you’d like to know more!

“Isabel was very thorough and thoughtful in her care of my pups this week. They were very chill and happy to see me when I got home so I know they got enough lovins.”

About: Growing up with at least two dogs in my home at any given time, I have gratitude for the joy and companionship pets can bring to a family. I've cared for my senior cat for the past 19 years. She is the love of my life who is now suffering from kidney failure. 😞 While in high school, I spent 4 years in the dog grooming industry. To this day, I am always the first to volunteer to look after pets for my friends and family. I now work at the Western North Carolina Nature Center by day where I train to handle animals during educational programs and support their well-being as "ambassadors" of their species. I have respect and love for all animals! 🩷 I'm also passionate about holistic pet health and cognition, and can accommodate to your pet's special diet protocol or exercise plan. In addition, I have experience giving around-the-clock care for puppies and senior pets and can administer medication when needed. I also offer nail trims and baths for well-behaved pets. Outside of my time spent at the Nature Center, I also work part-time in a hybrid role as an administrative assistant. This allows me the flexibility to meet you and your pets needs. I look forward to spending quality time with your best friend! I'm currently working part-time, with ample time off in the afternoons and evenings. I'm available after work around 3pm for walks and drop-ins, and am able to offer potty breaks every 4 hours or so during house sits. My days off from work are Wednesday and Thursday--if you'd like to request a walk or drop-in during an earlier time frame on those days, let me know! 😊 I am a compassionate and detail-oriented pet sitter. I really enjoy spending quality time with my client's pets. I'm happy to spend lots of time outside as needed.

About: I’ve been in the animal care industry for 20 years with experience with cats, dogs and horses. Caring, reliable, and honest, detail oriented animal lover.

I have availability spread between weekdays and weekends, so reach out and I will do my best to meet your pet’s needs.
