Nicole K. is awesome with dogs & cats. She texted me when she started her walk with Dixie & when she was done. I got the route she walked & also got pictures. It made me feel very comfortable leaving her in such good hands. Nicole is a sweet & caring person.

About: I've taken care of a lot of animals. a lot. good ones. not so good ones. big ones. not so big ones. i love them all!!! We'll explore all sorts of nooks and crannies of parks, trails, neighborhoods - whatever their preferred location! If they like to play fetch or chase other flying objects, we can certainly make that happen! i work full time for myself, with a good amount of flexibility during the day to be able to hang with some pups! if there's one thing i like to do, it's play with animals. especially pups. currently care for 3 doggo babies at home, as well as tend some feral cat colonies. i have 2 wonderful doggo babies at home with a fenced in yard, but they get to go on walks and adventures frequently! love meeting new dog friends!

About: I’ve always been an animal person. I grew up with dogs and cats, and I have a dog and cat now, so I’m very used to all the little routines, quirks, and cuddles that come with them. I especially love dogs, and I’ll treat your pet like one of my own with lots of attention, patience, belly rubs, and happy updates. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I work from home. I’m around during the day, so your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches, and I can give them plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. It makes it easy for me to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I work from home.

About: Hi, I'm Chantel. An animal lover with a passion for dogs and cats. Having grown up surrounded by animals, I recently relocated from Buffalo, NY to North Carolina and have found the people and weather here to be exceptional. In addition to my role as a Speech Pathologist Assistant, I work as an ESL Teacher and offer dog sitting services through Rover. Meaning I’m always available during school vacations. I find joy in spending time with my pets, exploring the outdoors, and staying active through jogging and hiking. The recent loss of my beloved cat, who lived to the age of 24, inspired me to explore and appreciate different species of animals. In 2018, I successfully assisted in the recovery of a stolen dog, Storm, by proactively creating flyers, conducting investigations, and leveraging social media to spread the word. The heartwarming outcome of this experience reinforces my commitment to helping and caring for animals. I would be honored to meet and care for your pet. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss how I can be of service. Looking forward to connecting soon, Chantel Starting July 1- July 31st I’ll be on my school break as a speech Teacher in schools. At this time I’ll be home most of the time. My clients are placed on a schedule. We wake up before 9:00am, we go out, we eat breakfast, take up to 30 min walks if able. We come back home, relax and play, go outside, eat dinner, go out a third time and time for bed. If the client is new, I try my best to keep them calm by playing with them and a lot of petting.

Adreanna was great! She took excellent care of Tonto and was very easy to work with throughout the entire booking. I never had to reach out or worry about anything, and I always felt confident that Tonto was in good hands. For anyone with a senior dog, I highly recommend. I’m sure she’s great with all dogs as well. I would absolutely book with her again.

Yanke has been wonderful with our big anxious boy! He was a late Covid puppy and did not get much out of the house socializing. she has been great at handling him and he seems to really enjoy his walks with her! He does not like most people and is dog reactive. She has been able to handle him on walks no problem.

My dogs adore Chase! Somehow, they always know when he's coming and they wait at the door for him, then push me out of the way to greet him when he arrives. He always shows up on time, lets me know when he is on his way, and is extremely personable and kind to talk to. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a dog walker!

I’ve had a really great experience with my dog walker. He’s incredibly kind and attentive, and it’s obvious he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with. I have two dogs, and he handles both of them with ease, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well taken care of every time. One thing I really appreciate is that he always sends pictures during or after the walks. It gives me peace of mind knowing they’re doing well and actually enjoying themselves. You can tell he goes the extra mile—not just getting the job done, but making sure my dogs are comfortable and cared for like they’re his own. Overall, I couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with my dogs. Reliable, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about what he does.
