Dog Walkers in Dorchester, SC

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and absolutely love caring for them. I have years of experience pet sitting and walking dogs for friends, and I also have my own dog, a 3-year-old miniature dachshund named Goose who’s friendly, outgoing, and full of energy. I understand the importance of trust, routine, and a loving touch when it comes to caring for your furry family members. Whether it’s a leisurely walk, some playful exercise, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pup feels happy, safe, and well-loved. I can’t wait to meet your dog and give them the attention they deserve! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine. I work remotely with extremely flexible hours, which allows me to prioritize the needs of your pet. With just a couple of days' notice, I can easily adjust my schedule to ensure I’m available to provide the care and attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, I’m always happy to make time for your furry friend! When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they get plenty of exercise and stimulation with long walks around the city, just like I do with my own dog. I also love taking dogs to the beach or on scenic trails, always tailoring the activity to their size, energy level, and preferences. While I don’t have a yard, I make up for it with frequent outdoor adventures and plenty of attention indoors. When caring for pets in your home, I’m equally comfortable adapting to their routine. Growing up with family land, I’m very familiar with letting dogs play in yards, throwing a ball, or simply enjoying safe outdoor freedom. Whether in my home or yours, I’ll provide personalized, attentive care to make your dog feel right at home.

About: Hi, I'm Lil Miss - writing for the human, Adam. He thinks he runs this household but let's be real. We live in a great duplex with a great fenced-in yard! We're excited to have slumber parties and go on neighborhood walks and go to the dog park - and I'll even share some of my treats! I do great with other doggos and love to play. I am naturally a herder but love getting to know other pups with my human. We can go on walks and car rides, too! Daily routine consistent, as Lil Miss loves routine. The home is free range but we can incorporate your crate, should your dog need it. We go on 1 walk in the neighborhood every day and try to hit up a local dog park when it's not too hot or wet outside. Lil Miss is a free range eater but we'll make sure both doggos eat at the same time. My work schedule is sporadic but allows me to be home during the day, more often than not. We have a great fenced-in yard and can crate your dog, in your crate, if necessary. Lil Miss does well when hanging out with other dogs in the home and we have extra beds and toys to share!

“Megan is so great with my pup! She gives really good updates and always makes sure to tell me how she is doing. I feel super comfortable having her as a sitter for my dog and definitely recommend her to others!”

Sarah M.

“Averi is great! I am always appreciative of her quick responses and willingness to take care of my pup even with last minute requests! She has great availability and always does a great job taking care of Romeo!”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and the hands-on experience that comes with it. I grew up taking care of my loyal German Shepherd, who taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and lots of outdoor play. I also cared for my ragdoll cat, Grumpy—true to his name but full of personality. Through raising both a large dog and a quirky cat, I learned how to meet different needs with compassion and care. Whether it’s energetic puppies, senior dogs who need a gentler touch, or pets with unique routines, I bring reliability, love, and attention to every visit. Your pet will be in safe, caring hands—with plenty of walks, belly rubs, and photo updates! I currently have the summer off from work and am looking to fill my days assisting others in a meaningful way. With a flexible schedule and plenty of free time, I’m able to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I can easily accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. I’m excited to spend my summer doing something I truly enjoy—caring for animals and helping fellow pet owners feel at ease while they’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets—whether in my home or yours. I always take time to get to know each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions you provide. In your home, I maintain a calm, respectful environment where your pet can feel secure and comfortable in their familiar space. I follow feeding, medication, and walking schedules closely, and I make sure to leave your space as clean and tidy as I found it. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, you can expect a quiet, pet-friendly space with no other animals, so your pet can feel relaxed and safe. I take extra care to pet-proof my home, avoid any hazards, and ensure they get plenty of attention, stimulation, and rest. For play time, my yard is fenced in and clean from potential hazards. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages—so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats professionally for over a year. I have sincere passion and dedication to this work straight from the heart. I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your sweet animals! I’m available for daily walks early morning & late afternoon/evening. I’m also available on the weekends both daytime and evenings. I’m available to stay in your home to care for your animals while you are away. Enjoy your stress-free time away while your pets have a blast with me at home.

About: I grew up with a golden retriever and I love dogs of all ages and sizes! I’ve lived with/ taken care of dogs my whole life. Since moving to Charleston in November 2023, I’ve watched dogs through Rover while I WFH and have been loving it. I work a full-time job (fully remotely) in tech. I would love to take care of your pet during your work day or when you’re out of town! I own my townhome and love hosting pets here with my own dog. I have a fenced in yard for them to play in and can also take them to the beach / park!

About: Hi!!! Thanks for stopping through. I know how absolutely nerve-racking it can be to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care—especially for a long trip. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and completely at home while you’re away. I love when sitters send me updates, so I’ll be sure to send lots of photos and videos to keep you in the loop. 😊 About me: I grew up with dogs and have over 10 years of experience caring for pups, and nearly as long with cats. I work 100% from home, so your pet will rarely be left alone. I’m very affectionate (possibly too much lol, if you ask my dog 😄) and love to go out for longs walks. Please let me know any routines or special requests your pet needs, and I will follow everything to a tee! Our home: We live in a spacious 3-story house in a quiet neighborhood with a cozy backyard that overlooks the Ashley River. I often play fetch and games with our Australian shepherd, Flynn, back here. He’s playful, sweet, and professionally trained. We also have a quiet senior cat named Mitsu. Both animals roam freely, and your pet would be welcome to as well. A quick note: Flynn is not neutered yet, so for now we’re not able to host any un-spayed female dogs at the moment! First thing in the morning, your pup will go for a long walk to kick off the day! When we’re back, we’ll follow any normal feeding routines. I work 100% from home, so we’ll go for walks and have play sessions throughout the day! Your pup will be able to explore our house and sprawl out on the couches to bask in the sunshine. Our Australian shepherd (Flynn) will definitely keep your pup entertained and curl up next to them as soon as it’s nap time.

“Brisco loves himself some Tuesday!! Thank you for the extra care you give to him. Thank you for keeping us updated on how he did during his walks.”
