Dog Walking Black Mountain

“Millie was great—we needed someone to come by everyday and walk the dogs, take care of our chickens while I was out of town and my husband was working…she was flexible, communicated well and made sure everything was taken care of! we Look forward to working with her again!”

“Birdie’s first time with Savanna was a success! Savanna came the day before for a meet and greet and made friends with Birdie. She learned about Birdie and is kind and communicated very well with us. We will definitely call on her again!”

“Cera took care of our very anxious Shih Tzu for the week that we've been in Black Mountain. She was very patient with him, very kind, very communicative. I would highly recommend”

About: I have been taking care of other people's animals since middle school and just love getting to know your pets! Experience with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, and fish! Willing to take on pets with medical needs! I work ~30 hours over 4 days a week. My shifts may be 9:30 am - 5:00 pm, 10:30 am - 6:00 pm, or 11:30 am - 7:00 pm. I know my exact work schedule two weeks in advance and can provide it when you reach out. I typically work on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. I am comfortable walking your animals on leashes, pushing them in strollers, using a treadmill, playing with them in the yard, or whatever else is your routine and preference!

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.

“This was our first time using rover and Brittney made us feel very comfortable. Came for a meet and greet and communicated very well through the whole process. We’ll definitely be using her again.”

About: I’m an Asheville native who loves nature and animals deeply. I communicate well & efficiently. Working with animals fills me with so much joy. I happily work with animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, etc. You can rest assured your pets will receive the best care possible each time they are with me. I love being able to help out fellow humans with the awesome bonus of keeping your animals happy & healthy :) I am a mama to a young boy, who is also good with animals. Although, he is in school most of the time. I do not usually come out late in the evenings due to my son’s bedtime, but can make it work if you are located close by. During the day time I have a good bit of flexibility, which allows this job to fit in my lifestyle well. I am currently only offering services at the clients home - I prefer to meet prior so I can visibly see what I will need to do. If this is under shorter notice / a meet cannot occur, please either write or text me a message of any needs, concerns or details necessary to make it the best experience for your pets. You can fully trust that your pets will be happy, safe and well taken care of.

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

“Gracyn so nice n on time. So very hot last week but Annie loved her walks. Many thanx.”

About: I have two cats and a dog who mean the world to me, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I would treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in nursing school full time, which has strengthened my responsibility, patience, and compassion when caring for others. While my weekdays are busy with classes and studying, I’m available for evening and weekend pet care and would love to spend that time giving your pets the attention, comfort, and love they deserve. In my home or my client’s home, I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection based on their personality and energy level. I’m mindful of any specific instructions from the owner, including medications, special diets, or behavioral needs. I also keep their space clean, make sure they have a calm and stress-free environment, and give lots of reassurance so they feel at ease while their owner is away.

About: I have taken care of pets since I have been able to drive. I quickly grew my clientele through friends and family and am trying to keep it growing! I love every animal as if it was my own and enjoy caring for them! I am a one-on-one for a young man with Down syndrome and love it! I work full time, but he is very flexible and doesn’t mind tagging along to let dogs out. I will go out of my way to make sure they get the care needed! I monitor your pets and take them out as much or as little as needed. I care for them as my own and will not let you down. I will take them on walks (if needed), feed them, clean litter boxes, etc. to keep them happy!

About: Fun, young, athletic, etc that LOVES animals and would love to walk yours and hang out with them!!! I have always been an animal person and I have a puppy of my own so I understand the needs of young puppies and also older ones! Pet care fits in my schedule because I will ALWAYS make time for an animal! Also I love to help out where I can so that is why I signed up to do this! Since I am doing dog walking, I make sure your dog gets in good exercise while out with me! Try to get those legs stretched and just out enjoying the weather!

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 treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m patient, attentive, and take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality and routine so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just wants someone to keep them company, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure pets stay on their normal schedule. I understand that every pet is different, and I strive to provide dependable, loving care while keeping owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so making sure pets get the exercise and care they need is something I genuinely enjoy. I believe in keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I also make it a priority to send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine.

About: I have always grown up with animals and have been a dependable fur-baby sitter! I watch my neighbors animals, (even fish) have stayed overnight in homes to watch animals. I am also comfortable with senior/puppy care as well as bath time & feeding routines. I am currently full time with my career & do petsitting on the side. I usually have flexible availability in my schedule & can be needed for last minutes as well! Im currently available for M-Fri (times can vary so we can discuss further for each booking to see if it’s a good fit!) If you need weekend availability please let me know & I am usually available! I can also provide a work schedule so we can figure out the perfect time for me to watch your animal! (If you are looking for a boarding service) I have 2 VERY friendly puppies (they are large, pit-bull & great dane) & 2 friendly cats who will offer company to your fur baby if they are well behaved with other cats/dogs! If they prefer to be alone, I can watch them in the comfort of your home! We have plenty of yard space & plenty of activities & toys to play with if you choose to board them with me. We have my dogs on an invisible fence at this time, so our yard is not completely fenced in.

“Mckenna, was great! She sent several pictures and it was evident she spent time with them besides just a walk. She will always be my first choice to take care of our fur babies!”

About: I've been a care provider of all kinds over the years. I started as at home nurse and eventually moved into more full time pet care. I have strong animal intuition, and dogs bring me great joy! I work remotely and on my own time, so pet care fits seamlessly into the mix. I can accommodate whatever your dogs specific needs are. I don't have much of a yard, but I'm walking distance to two parks. I also have space to board one dog at a time in my cozy little house, and this way I can provide the most customized care.
