5. Jess S.
“Jess is great with our dogs! We have two VERY nervous dogs, that take time to adjust to new people. Jess was willing to come over and meet our dogs multiple times so they were comfortable with her entering our home when we weren't there. She takes great care of them. I feel at ease while at work, knowing she's coming over to love them up and take them for a walk.”

9. Rebecca & Justin K.
“Rebecca took care of my pups as if they were her own. Her reports showed she was really paying attention to them and the pictures showed they were their excited happy little selves- both made me miss them more but also feel less guilty about not being there to walk them myself. I will definitely book with her again.”

“Stephanie has been a dog mom for well over five years. In that time, her puppies have only known the life of royalty. Her dogs are spoiled with treats, baths & hair cuts, toys, and wonderful walks. Stephanie's favorite part of her day is happening to cross paths with another puppy. She is welcoming and friendly to every dog she meets no matter how big or small. She isn't afraid to get down to their level and show them lots of love. Stephanie is a doggy caregiver you never have to worry about because she will do so much more than just care for your puppy!”
13. Matt & Rachel W.
About: I’ve worked on a farm since I was in grade school. Doesn’t matter the animal I am a big teddy bear at heart and won’t say no to pets. Since my wife works from home there will always be someone here to take care of your fur-baby. Yes, she is fully aware of me making an account for boarding at the house. We have a fenced in yard which my dog already loves to have the zummies. Between my wife, our children, and myself your fur-baby will have tons of cuddles on the couch/bed. Since my better half works from home there is always someone around. We will work as a team to take care of your fur baby. Unless you as an owner gives us specific instructions then your fur baby is allowed on the furniture and all of the love or play time that he/she wants.

About: I have been caring for family pets my whole life, so I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats alike. I'm primarily looking to walk dogs and help out people in the community here in my free time, and since I live in the area I can be around a lot for your pet care needs! I've got experience with puppies, older dogs, cat sitting and lots in between, just ask! Drop in visits are more than welcome as well. I'm setting up a new network in Charlotte, where I will be living and working later in the year. For now I'm seeing if anyone in the area is looking for pet sitting and dog walking on the weekends, but once I'm moved to the area I'll be available more often! I am a respectful guest for drop in visits and I'm more than happy to provide detailed updates and pictures of your pets during visits!
15. Michelle M.
About: I had birds, a rabbit, cats, fish, and DOGGIES as a child. I’m an avid animal lover. As an adult I learned how animals are not only adorable but, in my opinion an absolutely necessary part of life. It would be my honor and delight to care for your fur babies with the same love and attention I give mine. I have a 6 year old pit/boxer mix named Storm. She is a special needs rescue and has given me so much more insight on animal behavior. Animals speak if we take the time to hear them. I work full time but, am available mornings, evenings, overnights and weekends. Monday-Friday before 10am. Open availability after 7:30pm and weekends. I may have additional availability if advance notice is provided. Since my doggie is special needs I can only do care in your home and will gladly follow your instructions. I would want to stick to your routine unless instructed otherwise!
16. Marlena R.
“110% using Marlena again. Punctual and so good with my dog, Benji. He is very shy with strangers but he looked so happy on the walk. Definitely recommend Marlena's services!!!!!!!”

“Katie is awesome!! Always communicates and my dog loves going on walks with her 🥰 I love seeing pictures that Katie uploads from the walk!!!”
18. Jenilee V.
“Extremely kind and loving to my pup. Very timely and gives helpful updates when they came up. Jenilee has been a great friend to my fur baby 😊”
19. Flannery & Ryan W.
“Flannery has started walking my beagles Miles regularly and she has been great so far. My dog absolutely loves her. She comes on time and communicates well. I look forward to Miles spending a lot of time with her in the future. ”
20. Mell M.
About: As a devoted large dog enthusiast with two of my own—Dante, an American Staffordshire Terrier, and Kato, a Tri-Color American Bully—I've had the privilege of raising and training both since they were puppies. My experience extends beyond personal training; I’ve had the opportunity to shadow local police K9 units, gaining valuable insights into advanced dog handling and training techniques. I’m confident in my ability to meet the unique needs of large breeds. While I have a special affection for bully breeds, I warmly welcome all dogs into my home. I offer a spacious environment designed with partitioned areas for comfort and safety, along with plenty of toys to ensure your dog has a fun and engaging stay. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with a safe, loving, and playful environment! I’m currently transitioning from a career in Precision Machining to pursuing my passion for dog training and handling. In the near future, I’ll also be offering my own line of dog handling equipment, designed with both quality and functionality in mind. In my multi-story home, I have thoughtfully installed multiple gates to create flexible and secure areas for dogs to explore and play safely. With minimal furniture, there’s ample room for your dog to enjoy their stay and get plenty of exercise. I also have a variety of leashes, collars, e-collars, muzzles, and other preventive tools to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all dogs, tailored to their individual needs. Safety and fun are my top priorities, and I look forward to providing a welcoming environment for your pup!
