Dog Walking Catawba

About: I’ve been rescuing animals since I was 11. I’ve spent many years managing a 5 doctor veterinary hospital. I treat your pets as I would treat my own. All the pets I’ve cared for have come to know me as their Aunt Sunny. Your pets will receive the type of care you want them to receive. I won’t just drop in and go. Time is spent walking, brushing, playing and loving your pets. I’ve trained many dogs and have spent time as a vet tech. I’ve owned my own pet sitting business for many years and always the go to person for my family and friends. Many references available. I’m semi retired so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I come when you want me to be there. I’m available 7 days a week morning, noon and night. I care for your pets as you would. I encourage your detail instructions so they receive the same care as they would if you were home. Pictures and videos are sent so you can be ensured of your pet’s happiness.

“Rilea is a fantastic walker for my Toby. I work part time for an EMS agency and when someone calls in sick there is an urgent need to fill the empty slot. I requested Rilea late last night unexpectedly to walk Toby the next day and she responded quickly to accommodate my schedule. She provides a great service.”

In a client's home, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and a clean, comfortable environment. I follow all owner instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, walks, and any special needs. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel at ease while they’re away. My priority is to make sure every pet receives personalized care, patience, and affection, just as I would give my own pets.

“I couldn't be more pleased with Maddison and the exceptional care she provides for my furry friend. She’s incredibly reliable, always showing up on time and with a genuine enthusiasm that my dog absolutely loves. Her attention to detail, from following specific instructions to ensuring my dog gets plenty of exercise and playtime, is unmatched.

About: Hi, my name is James “Pete” Peedin. Growing up with Labs, Pekingese, Pugs, and Boykin Spaniels, I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life.

About: I have an 8 year old black lab mix named Annabelle. Prior to adopting her, I have always had a pet in my home. I have had a previous black lab, Lily who passed 2 yeards ago and a golden retriever. I have been dog sitting mostly for friends and family for a few years now, but I wanted to reach out beyond that and see who else I could help. I am good with dogs of all sizes. I love dogs and haven't been without one my whole life and I know what it's like to have to leave your best friend hom while your away, so I can provide that care and love for them while you can't be there.

I have a fenced in yard with my dog. But I prefer to come to your home where the animals are most comfortable and feel safe

About: I’m a dog owner of a 4-year-old German Shepherd with epilepsy and an 8-year-old Beagle. Caring for my Shepherd has given me hands-on experience administering medication on a consistent schedule, monitoring for seizures and staying calm and responsive if one occurs. My dogs are also decently trained, so I’m comfortable reinforcing basic commands and maintaining structure. Having two completely different types of breeds also gives me experience with a different energy level and the attention to both of their different needs. Together they’ve taught me how to balance exercise, rest, mental stimulation, and individualized care for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments. Being a military veteran I am also reliable, and consistent. I have lived with dogs all of my life and love meeting all kinds of different breeds. I’m happy to follow your routines closely, send regular updates and photos, and provide the calm, consistent care that helps dogs feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently on terminal leave from the military and will be starting my graduate program soon, with classes only on Wednesdays and Thursdays. This gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of free time on the other weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m available for sitting, and walks most days and can easily adjust around my class times to provide pet care. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes and temperaments and will follow your routines, medication needs, and any special instructions closely. I can crate when needed and always prioritize supervision, safety, and lots of positive interaction so your pup feels comfortable and well cared for.

About: I have always had pets of my own that I have taken care of since I was very young, however, when I turned 14 I started helping take care of other peoples animals as a hobby and for extra money.

I really enjoy spending time walking, playing, and just loving on the animals. I have 2 pets of my own (a dog and a pig) so no animal will scare me away! I currently work part time nannying so I have more than enough time to spend with your pets! The best part of it is I can always adjust my schedule to fit yours a little better! I am very easy going and good at adapting to your needs, I will make sure you fit babies get plenty of exercise and water, not to mention LOVE!

About: I’ve always been someone that animals naturally warm up to because I’m calm, patient, attentive, and consistent. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My background has taught me the importance of routines, observation, patience, and communication, which translates really well into caring for pets with different temperaments and needs. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, shy pets, senior animals who need a gentler pace, and pets who may need extra reassurance or structure. I pay close attention to details like feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and behavior changes, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you feel connected and reassured while your pet is in my care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having calm company around, I’ll make sure they receive reliable, loving, and personalized care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I plan my schedule carefully so pets receive consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and companionship without feeling rushed. I’m flexible with mornings, evenings, weekends, and check-ins throughout the day when needed. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions. I pay close attention to behavior and body language so I can quickly notice if something seems off or if a pet needs extra comfort or patience. Safety and trust are extremely important to me. I make sure doors, gates, leashes, and feeding areas are secure at all times, and I always keep pets supervised during walks, outdoor time, and interactions. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners feel reassured and connected while their pets are in my care.

About: Hi, my names Mary, & I have experiences with pets that I used to own before. I’ve had a lot of cats growing up, a bunch, I’ve nurtured them when they were kittens, till they become beautiful cats. I’ve even given them away to people that needed a friendly pet & beat friend would bring them into their family. They’re really cute, & it’s nice to to be able to take care of cats because the all have their own personality that you can’t really ignore. Ones crazy while another ones mostly shy and etcs.
