Dog Walkers in Brook Cove, NC

About: I retired from teaching 4 years ago and have been caring for pets in their homes, cleaning litter boxes and taking dogs out for exercise during that time. I have personally owned 2 large dogs well into their senior years. I have had cats my entire life and still have one. I typically take care of cats and dogs when their owners are away; feeding, administering pills, cleaning litter boxes, exercising/playing with dogs, and playing/cuddling with cats. I believe these visits have been the most rewarding activities of my life. As a retired teacher, I am flexible to care for pets any day of the week. I am also willing to stay overnight in your home and be your pet’s companion. I still have a cat of my own on whom I like to check at some point each day if staying nights at another pet owner’s home. Sometimes the owners I serve are away for 7-15 days at a time. I will send daily updates and pictures as well during your absence. I have been providing care for pets in the owners’ homes. I therefore water and feed the cats and dogs and administer pills, if needed. I clean litter boxes and tidy up, making sure pet hair, etc. is cleaned up. I get the mail and take out trash. I play/cuddle with the cats and exercise/play/cuddle with the dogs. I love to walk so I never get enough of walking dogs. I take extra precautions if dogs are anxious when I have to leave for a while, i.e., leave music or TV playing or do something special with the dogs before I leave. The dogs usually sleep in the bed with me and we become great friends.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and current pet parent to one energetic German Shorthaired Pointer puppy and two independent (but secretly snuggly) cats. Caring for such a high-energy breed has given me lots of experience with exercise needs, structure, and gentle training — while my cats remind me to always respect boundaries and read body language. Whether your pet is playful, shy, anxious, or a total goofball, I meet them where they are. I believe in kind, attentive care and keeping pets as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. With a flexible schedule and ample free time, I’m able to provide reliable, consistent care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s frequent potty breaks, medication on a schedule, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and available. I do my best to create a calm, safe, and loving environment. I’m always respectful of your space and stick closely to your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free.

“Laura is amazing. She has a big heart for dogs, and took great care of Brooks. Her communication about Brooks after his walk was perfect, and I will be using her agian!”

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals, from goats to chickens to house cats. I own a dog, who’s a year and a half old now, but I trained him from the time he was 8 weeks old. I also had a senior dog in my teens that I took care of. I have never met a critter I don’t love!! I’m currently a stay at home mom to my young daughter so I have plenty of time to pour all the love into your pup or kitty (or other!). My schedule is flexible to suit your needs and your fur baby’s preferences. I have a happy, friendly mid sized heeler pup who just loves other dogs and cats. I am happy to crate him if you are more comfortable with our critters not interacting while in my home, and of course, he will remain at my house while I care for your animals in your own home.

About: I've taken care of dogs/pets my whole life, my passion only grew larger for them as I grew older. They are truly the heart of the world and they give us the motivation to keep pushing forward. Not only do I have personal experience caring and medicating animals, but I also have experience dealing with aggressive dogs as well as previous experience working in a kennel/doggy-daycare where I cared for, walked, and medicating cats and dogs in my daily routine. I am also going to NC State currently, going to be a junior in the fall, majoring in animal science which has provided me with so much knowledge on animals and how to best care for them, ranging many species but specializing in companion animals. I'm currently out of college for summer break so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry family members and make sure they get the best experience possible while you're away. Personally, I have 2 cats and share 2 more and a dog with a disability with my mom so for me, pet care is a normal daily routine and therefore other forms of pet care are no hassle to add on and I'd love to help out and make sure you and your pet are getting what's best for the both of you! Having companion animals of my own, I know how worrisome it can become when you leave your door open to a stranger, especially with your furry friend's life at hand. Just know I would never treat an animal, person, or home with any type of disrespect nor would I ever imagine doing so. I treat others' things as my own and I'd say I keep things pretty organized and clean. Also, it is important to know that I am not only an animal enthusiast but I am also an animal welfare enthusiast and would do anything in my power to keep your furry friend safe under my watch.

About: Hi! My name is Rebecca. I grew up with dogs and cats in my household. I have experience caring for both small and large dogs, cats, and other animals. For the past two years, I have provided around-the-clock care, overnight care, and walking and drop-in visits for a different pet care company. I not only cared for dogs and cats, but I lived with and cared for my roommate’s four ferrets: Ranger, Rogue, Bard, and Cleric. I have recently moved back home and would love to continue to meet and care for new furry friends! I currently have a lot of free time over the summer and I am available any day of the week for drop-ins, dog walking, or house sitting services. I always want to make sure that I am following the pet’s own specific schedule so that they can be comfortable and relaxed while the owner is away.

About: I am a dog lover who will treat your pets as my own. I have senior pet care experience. I also have experience giving medications including insulin shots. I am currently retired and home most of the day. I walk your dogs as requested or walk around my fenced in yard. I play with the dogs throughout the day and give snacks. I have a fenced in yard, friendly dogs to keep yours company, and no stairs. I keep temporary fences at both entrances to ensure extra safety.

About: I’ve always had pets growing up and have even trained a few of my own dogs. I’d be so happy to care for yours and give them lots of love. I am a stay at home mom so I have an open and flexible daily schedule, I enjoy early morning walks. I am also open for boarding on weekday or weekends. I have a fenced yard and plenty of space in my home for pets to feel comfortable. My cat can be kept separate if needed. I’m also available for house sitting if that’s preferred.

“Tricia has walked my dog for the past few weeks and is wonderful. Very communicative, on time, and very kind. My dog takes so well to her and I’m so grateful for the extra help during the week.”

“Wonderful walker and a friend to your pup. My senior puppy runs to the door with her tail going a million miles an hour when she sees Eleanor has arrived to take her for a walk . You will be happy to have her help you with your doggy.”

About: I've had pets growing up my entire life. I love animals and just enjoy being around them and giving them love! I've taken care of several pets for friends and family and just want to continue to do that for others when needed. I have my own business so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available day or night to take care of your furr babies 😊 My own animals are so friendly and loving and my home would be completely safe for ur furr babies but at this time I won't be able to board any pets at my house. This may change in the future.

About: I’ve always had a passion for pets, and my experience caring for animals runs deep. I've looked after my neighbors' dogs and cats, and I’ve taken care of my sister's big 110-pound dog along with her two mischievous kittens. Growing up with dogs, I’ve developed a solid understanding of their needs, and right now, I’m lucky to have two amazing pups of my own: a 12-year-old Chihuahua and a lively 5-year-old Pitbull. They’re the best of friends, and they’ve taught me a lot about senior dog care and playtime balance. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I’m committed to making sure your pets feel loved and well cared for while you’re away. I am a line dance instructor full time, so I have no issues fitting in pet care! I teach classes 4 times a week and sometimes I do dance events on Fridays. I am available for casual walks or play dates on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Friday mornings-afternoon, and am available for overnight boarding most weekends. I have two dogs in my home, one senior Chihuahua/Beagle mix and one young Pitbull mix. Both are up-to-date on all shots. I do have 1 crate available if needed. My pitty does typically get crated when I’m not home. Both dogs have access to food and water bowls. I do not have a fenced in yard, so I am very used to leashes. I love to take my dogs to the local dog park (5 minutes away). Both of my dogs are potty trained and leash trained. I am comfortable with walking dogs, feeding dogs, and administering oral medications.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs mostly my whole life I grew up with multiple dogs and have cared and loved them since book me ❤️ I currently work from home so I am available to dog sit all day any day of the week if needed. Any day to assist Although my yard is not fenced I do have a big back yard and will make sure they are safe inside and out side .

“Elise was great with our dog and super responsive throughout planning and while caring for her! She kept us updated with lots of pics and was willing to come visit beforehand to go over care instructions. Would recommend!”

“Lexie was so great with Brinkley. She spent a lot of time with her and gave her lots of attention. She was really accommodating with the specifics of walking her and even took her to Brinkleys favorite park! The cherry on top was that she brought a package inside for us, talk about going above and beyond. I would highly recommend using Lexie to care for you pups. Brinkley can’t wait to walk with Lexie again 🐶”

“Alejandra was just what we were looking for Bully was so excited for her to return the next day for his walk We look forward to booking again !!!”

“Emily and I met to get to know once another and let her interact with Kacee. She is wonderful and the way she interacted with Kacee left me feeling secure on the knowledge that she would care for him as if her were her own. We got pictures from Emily while Kacee was out being his wonderful self which I loved. We will definitely be using Emily in the future. Emily thank you so much”

We are available for daily stays during your vacation, summer stays, week days, etc. I’ve been pet-sitting for over 10 years, and it’s been a wonderful way for me to combine my love of animals with a flexible schedule. I started when I began working remotely, and I’ve had extensive experience with both in-home pet sitting and dog walking. I know how hard it can be for pets and their owners when they’re apart, so I always strive to make the experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Keeping your pets active and entertained is one of my top priorities, whether it's a fun walk, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I work full-time with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend a lot of time with your animals during the day. Plus, my fiancé , Jeremy, assists me with my services. Jeremy works full-time remotely in IT, which allows him to help with pet sitting and walking whenever needed. This means your pets will receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day.

I'm able to spend the majority of the weekdays with them and can spend all the time on in the evenings and weekends. I'm also available to check in or stay with your animals while you are in town for vacation and need coverage for a few hours. Their safety is my top priority while you are away. I keep a good eye on them and don't like to by physically away from them for long as I know it can be a hard transition sometimes.

About: If you’re looking for a second home for your pets, look no further.
