Dog Walking Charleston Gardens

“Michael was very professional, great to work with, and spent the full, quality time with my 2 boys. When I came home, they were relaxed - happy to see me, but clearly not anxious. Now if they could just stop telling me how "Michael took them on TWO walks a day..." :D”

About: I've loved animals my whole life and have cared for pets since 2016. I had my own bunny for five years, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how much consistency matters in pet care. Over the years, I've helped roommates, friends, and family with their pets, including feeding, walks (rain included!), baths when needed, cleaning up accidents, playtime, and companionship. While I don't yet provide emergency or medical care beyond the basics, I'm very comfortable with daily routines and making pets feel safe and loved. What sets me apart is that I'm very good at following instructions. I know every pet parent has specific preferences, and I respect that fully. During the first visit, I may ask clarifying questions to make sure I'm doing everything exactly how you like it. I also keep your home tidy and send regular updates with photos so you feel at ease. I'm available weekdays during standard working hours and would love to spend that time giving your pup or kitty attention, movement, and care. I'm currently available on weekdays during standard 9-5 hours, which makes me a great fit for midday walks, drop-in visits, and weekday care. I'm not available on weekends at this time. Since I'm focusing on weekday bookings, I'm able to give your pet my full attention during visits rather than rushing between commitments. Your pet's comfort and your home's safety are very important to me. I carefully follow all instructions, double-check doors and leashes, and make sure your pet is secure before and after walks. I maintain a calm presence and respect both your home and your pet's boundaries. I clean up after pets, keep litter areas and feeding spaces tidy, and leave your home as I found it. Clear communication is important to me, so you can expect updates, photos, and honest check-ins throughout my time with your pet.

About: I have had experience with dogs and cats all my life and I even had a dog myself. I've had neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to take care of their pets when they are gone on vacation. I work full time Monday- Friday from 8am-3pm. I am available to pet sit, dog walk, and do drop ins if that works with your pets schedule. I’m completely free on weekends. I would love to help keep your fur babies company while you or your family is away for vacation. Please let me know if you have any questions! I would prefer to stay in the client's home rather than bring their pet to my home. I will do everything that the pet's owner would like me to do while they are gone.

About: I've had the joy of living with both cats and dogs and have cared for everything from playful puppies to senior dogs with special needs. I can communicate in Russian or use American Sign Language if your dog responds better to those. I love teaching new tricks and enjoy when dogs take me out for walks or runs. I'm also open to caring for cats and other pets. Let’s make sure your furry friends get the best care and have a blast while you’re away! Since I work from home, I’m super flexible and can accommodate your pet's needs and schedule. I’m available between 10am and 8pm, so let’s chat about what works best for you and your furry friend! In the client's home, I start by chatting with the owner to learn about their pet's needs and routine. Then, I keep them comfortable and happy with plenty of playtime, exercise, and love while keeping the owner updated.

About: Hi! I’m Ally, an animal lover with professional animal care experience ranging from pet boarding facilities to the Oakland Zoo. My approach is calm, attentive, patient, and individualized to each animal. Animals have always been a central part of my life.

Professionally, I previously worked at a pet boarding facility where I handled client communication, maintained veterinary and care records, administered medications, monitored feeding and intake, and provided daily hands-on animal care. I also worked as a Zookeeper Aide at the Oakland Zoo, where I helped prepare specialized diets and support daily animal care operations in a fast-paced environment.

I do have my own cat so I need to take his own care into account when considering bookings. Currently accepting clients primarily in Manhattan, especially Washington Heights, Inwood, Harlem, and the Upper West Side. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and consistent environment for every pet in their own home. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medication, routines, and household rules while paying close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall wellbeing. I understand that every animal has a different comfort level and personality, so I approach each pet with patience, attentiveness, and respect for their space and routine.

“Excellent communication and attention to the weather to avoid overheating Ceara's paws. Ceara was calm, happy and well exercised when we returned. G. was pleasant and professional.”
