Dog Walkers in Carlos, NC

About: I’m an experienced petsitter who has been doing this since I was 14. But I began taking the job seriously 4 years ago. I have experience with senior and special needs pets. I’ve also administered medication to cats, dogs, and fish. I have experience working in a veterinary hospital so you can trust that I’ll always treat your pet the same way I would at work! With the upmost care and kindness. I’m currently working part-time, so I have very flexible availability to care for your furry family members! If you need extended care please let me know in advance. :) I provide drop in services and house-sitting services too! I have one meet&greet before the first official day of service and will send pictures at breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But I don’t mind sending more if that makes you more comfortable!

“Very responsive and accommodating! Thank you Alivia”

About: Puppies need time, patience, and most of all fun! Most of the time, puppies are stripped away from their families and are just looking for their pack. It is very important to create a safe environment and show love towards dogs. They are our protectors, and we are their caregivers I am retired. Although my husband is in the military, I do have free time most of the week. I am more than willing to be flexible and to also be a routine caregiver. For both dogs and cats, I do have two cats and one dog. I understand that while my pets are family, they are all individuals. I will take the time to learn each pet as an individual and not generalize their species.

“Meghan was an outstanding dog walker. She played with Steven my German shepherd and sometimes hung out even longer than she was required to. She even cleaned his ears and put medication in them for me because poor Steven suffers from frequent ear infections. Which I am certain wasn’t easy to do , Steven hates it when you touch his ears. She left detailed notes and you could tell genuinely cared for Steven. Highly recommend”

“My boys can be a bit much when first meeting new people and the two together can be a little overwhelming.. Sandra has really been so good with them and they respond very well with her! We are thankful for her patience and the work she does with them ! Such a blessing for us!”

Tamara M.

“Natalie is a fantastic sitter! We've used a few in the area and she's become our favorite. Our pets just love her. Wen one of our sitters fell through, Natalie stepped up last minute and we knew the "kids" were in good hands. She is great on communicating and sending fun photos of our pets. She's definitely our go-to first choice!”

Karen M.

“Eric was on time, professional, and my dog adored him. For 30 minutes each day, he walked him and even got on the ground and played with him. I will certainly ask Eric to help out in the future when I need a walker again.”

Cathy M.

“Great service and my pups love her! Thanks so much!”

Shana H.

“always great with our pup!”

About: Hi there! I’m a reliable, animal-loving caregiver who treats every pet like family. As a stay-at-home mom and army veteran, I bring patience, responsibility, and strong attention to detail into everything I do—including caring for your furry companions. I’m very active and love staying outdoors, so whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, or just some extra love and attention, I’ve got it covered. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. 🐶 My Experience I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m comfortable handling feeding routines, administering basic medications, and sticking to any specific instructions you provide. I know how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll make sure their routine stays as normal as possible. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a stay-at-home mom while attending school online, with a flexible schedule. I’m home most of the day, so I can provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, and playtime without pets being left alone for long. Staying active is already part of my lifestyle, so caring for pets blends easily into my daily routine while ensuring they get plenty of love and care. I care for dogs in their home by following their normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved in their own space while also respecting your home. You’ll get regular updates so you know your pet is doing great.

About: I’ve been a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends for as long as I can remember. From playful puppies to senior pets, I understand that each animal has its own personality and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s going for long walks, keeping up with their favorite routines, or just spending quiet time together, I’m dedicated to making sure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m self-employed and work from home, which gives me the flexibility to adjust my schedule around your pets’ needs. Whether it’s early mornings, afternoons, or late evenings, I can be there when you need me most. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I treat every animal with the same patience, love, and attention I give my own. I’m attentive to routines, careful about details, and committed to keeping your pets comfortable and secure at all times. You can relax knowing they’re in caring and responsible hands.

About: I've had pets my whole life with the majority of them being rescues. I currently have three huskies and a doberman, as well as a leopard gecko. I have also in the past had chickens and fish that I greatly miss caring for. So whether the house or the farm I'm ready for your babies! I'm currently focusing all of my time on pet sitting so I can care for your babies at any time and for however long I am needed. I am based out of Lillington and am able to travel to the surrounding areas where I can care for your pets in your home, whether that be giving medication, feeding, playing or continuing any training that you have started.

About: I've been caring for all types of animals since i was 12 years old. I've trained dogs such as German Shepherds and Pitbulls, and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I currently have the pleasure of loving 2 of my own special needs cats and a large tarantula. As well as this, my previous employment was a small pet care business in Georgia providing drop in visits for feeding, playtime and potty breaks, overnight sitting, walks, extended stays and taking care of exotic animals like birds. Throughout my life I've personally owned a snake, rabbit, hamsters, cats, dogs, spiders, moths and a bird! I'm looking forward to be an extra loving hand for your pets! I'm currently a full-time pet carer, caring for my special needs cats and others' lovely pets. I have plenty of time to care for your beloved fur babies and understand the ever-changing pace of life with pets, and am happy to accommodate. Any timeframe and any day, you can count on me to be reliable! Every pet parent is different and we all like specifics when it comes to the pets we love, so I always like to discuss with you about what you'd like done regarding crating, backyard time, car rides or park visits and waste disposal. I NEVER use punishment on any pet, and instead prefer a positive reinforcement only approach. I would like to be aware of your pets' allergies, triggers, injuries and fears so I can provide the best experience for them and for you!

About: Hi! I’m Gabriel, a veteran, teacher, and lifelong animal lover with plenty of experience caring for dogs. I’m dependable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I live in an apartment but only board one dog at a time, so your pet gets plenty of individual attention. I’m very active and enjoy long walks, and there’s a dog park nearby where I can take your dog to run and play. As a teacher in a year-round district, I also have extended breaks when I’m available for full-time pet care, which works well for longer trips or vacations. I look forward to giving your pet great care and giving you peace of mind. I’m available to board most weekends and especially during my school breaks since I work on a year-round schedule. On workdays I’m off by 3:00 PM, which allows me to stop by homes in the afternoon and evening to care for pets. My Home: I have one dog named Libby who can keep your pup company. I only take one additional dog at a time, so your pet will receive plenty of individual attention. I also live near the Cape Fear River Trail and walk it regularly, so your dog will get plenty of outdoor time and exercise. Client’s Home: When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful, attentive, and professional. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure your pet stays comfortable and in their normal routine.

About: I had a high-energy pointer/setter mix growing up and have always defaulted to caring for dogs as I did Jazzie--getting their energy out but knowing when they're tuckered. I commonly pet sit for my cousin and coworkers in Alaska where leashes were important to protect against wild animal encounters, so I can assure you I will be careful to get your pet home safe and happy! I currently work a mix of seasonal and rotational geology jobs in remote Alaska. My husband and I just moved here, so I'm finding a meaningful way to spend free time while staying active whenever I can! Happy to get out of the house when pets need! I am happy to follow detailed instructions on how you like your pet cared for including double checking all locks, gates, and fences. I will make sure they are properly leashed and a safe distance from others we meet on walks as well as providing as much or as little petting as they wish. I will treat them like my own and just hope to improve their day as they are improving mine.

About: Other than being able to have base access availability. I’ve cared for many pets over the years and have had my own since I was 11. I grew up with cats and guinea pigs, and I’ve also pet-sat for dogs, bunnies, and more. I love all animals and am happy to help with bathing and light grooming too. I'm currently a student so I'll have plenty of time to take care of your pets as needed! I'm flexible on all times of the day. I always prioritize safety by following your pet’s routine and any special instructions closely. I make sure doors and windows are secure, keep hazardous items out of reach, and monitor your pet’s behavior for signs of stress or illness. I’m also comfortable giving baths or medication if needed. I will always recommend and require, a meet and greet to ensure that all safety measures are in place.

“This was Alexis’ first time with my dog Otis and she was a hit. She communicated appropriately and arrived at the time she promised. She provided multiple pictures of the activities and locked my house back up like I asked her to. All around positive experience!”

Gina H.

“She is awesome with my dog and always gives me a full update of how the walk went-any challenges, concerns or great news! Love having her as our regular walker for such a long time now.”
