Dog Walking East Raleigh

About: I recently graduated from NC State University with a degree in design and a minor in zoology! Now that I’m in post-grad life, I’m working remotely and looking to spend time doing what I love most: hanging out with animals. While I’ve shared most of my life living with cats but dog sitting has actually been my main thing! Long before downloading the Rover app, I was primarily dog sitting for people in person—starting back in 2020 when I pulled double duty babysitting both toddlers and their fur babies. Needless to say, dogs know I'm a trusted friend! From energetic medium and large breeds to the sweetest small pups, I love them all—that absolutely includes our precious senior dogs! I have a huge heart for older pups who just want company to hang out with. Because of my background with cats, I am an absolute pro at routine. I run a tight, loving schedule—timely meals, plenty of playtime and walks, and endless cuddles tailored to exactly what your dog likes. Your pup will be in the safest, most attentive hands. I’ll keep you completely in the loop with consistent updates. Plus, as a design grad, don't be surprised if a a simple portrait of your pet lands in your inbox as a bonus :) Since I work remotely from my laptop, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to easily prioritize your babies whenever they need attention. I will be at your home for the majority of the time, only popping out occasionally to grab food or run quick errands. I absolutely adore my own cats and treat them like royalty, so you can rest assured your fur babies will receive that exact same level of love and quality care! To ensure they have the best experience possible! I always make it a point to learn about their specific routines, favorite toys, safe zones, and any necessary medications ahead of time :)

About: My greatest loves in this world are animals and nature. I enjoy pets of all sizes, I’ve taken care of all kinds of breeds from Rottweilers to Jack Russell Terriers. I’m experienced with all stages of life, I recently lost my amazing 13yo lab/Irish wolfhound mix after raising him from a puppy. I’m comfortable giving medication and light grooming/brushing, but my favorite is getting them outside for some fresh air and exercise. I love caring for cats and plant-babies too! I’m a freelancer and enjoy taking breaks throughout the day to step away from my computer and get my blood pumping. Making my own schedule means I can be flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m a gentle but firm soul and find a way to connect with a wide variety of temperaments. I’m happy to go slow and meet animals where they are since I know proper care and attention is not one size fits all.

“Nathan was very good with my daisy. He took her for long walks and she really enjoyed them. I would recommend him to anyone. He is a true dog lover”

“Sarah was a wonderful sitter to take our girl, Millie, off of our hands for a few hours so we could celebrate our baby shower! I would not hesitate to have her watch Millie again! Thank you Sarah ?”

“Al and Laura are wonderful with our super anxious dog Pepper. They are sweet and patient with her, and she has warmed up to both of them quickly just being with them on their walks while we are at work. She gets to spend the long weekend with them and I am absolutely sure she will be in wonderful hands and will have a great time with them and their sweet pups!”

About: As a work-from-home professional, I can keep your fur baby company all day long, and check in multiple times a day. Does your energetic herding dog need twice-daily walks or visits to the dog park? No problem -- they're just like the Australian Shepherd I grew up with and the Rough Collie I petsit regularly. I am also an ardent cat lover with experience caring for my aging childhood cat (age 20+), as well as a skittish rescue with seasonal allergies. If you have a senior cat who needs extra care or shy kitten who needs daily medication, I'm the petsitter for you. I have an extremely flexible schedule and can accomodate boarding every day of the week. I'm also available for daycare across Raleigh, although I may have more limited availability on Wednesday and Thursday nights, as well as Sunday afternoons and evenings. Feel free to ask about my schedule! I live in a townhouse with a small, fenced-in patio and my one cat. She is typically kept in a separate part of the house during boarding, so I can accommodate animals who are reactive to cats. The yard is great for smaller dogs who enjoy being outside, but I can also care for larger animals who need lots of exercise!

“Adreanna was absolutely amazing with our dog. She was very attentive and provided a detailed over view of everything that was going on, leaving us without any questions or worry. 12/10.”

About: I love animals and do not desire to have children of my own for the next few years but in the meantime have a lot of love that needs to go towards your 🐕 I currently have flexible availability, I am available short term or long term. Flexible doggy lover who just wants to play fetch. Let me take care of your doggy while you have some much deserved down time! I enjoy spending time with animals and giving them as much attention as I can. I will take your dog out on walks and to the yard to play and run & make some memories! I love sending pet photos while you are away so you can rest assured.

“Trevor has been incredibly caring and loving to my puppy Leia, hes always been great, communicative and cared for her as well as I do. Would recommend trevor to anyone!”

“First time I’ve connected with and used Amber for dog walking. She was kind enough to come by my house at 2 different times during the day to walk my dog while I was away all day. She did so with professionalism, good communication, and respect. Highly recommend her and would definitely have her over again!”

Travis H.

“Brooke was wonderful with our 2 dogs and walking them while I was out of town. She came on time every day and provided a picture and walking card after each walk so I could follow along virtually. Thank you so much!”

Sabrina G.

“This was the 3rd (or 4th?) Time we've booked with Nicole. She's always easy to work with, timely, and send lots of pictures. She's always our first choice!”

About: I grew up in home with dogs and cats. In my adulthood I’ve cared for many friends and families pets as well as having my own pets throughout the years. I’ve worked with puppies who need lotsa attention and senior dogs who require timed food/medication schedules. I am a mom to school aged kids and do a lot around the house to earn income which keeps my life fairly flexible. I can work within most peoples schedules and timing expectations. I live in a quiet neighborhood on a cul de sac with a fenced in yard that opens to a park. I’m also very close to a handful of dog parks. The kids and I live a balanced life of activity and rest that we love to include pets in.

“Carlee was amazing! Booked her last minute for three walks for my dog Fox. She was very communicative and provided great updates. She was also right on time for each walk! Will definitely be my top choice for walking Fox in the future!”

Bonnie M.

About: I have been petsitting and dog walking my neighborhood pets for several years and had the privilege to work as a research technician who helped in husbandry at UNC Chapel Hills Division of Comparative Medicine canine unit. I love making new furry friends and gaining experience to help my pre-veterinary journey as a college student! I am a college student who has classes int the morning and afternoon and ask for your patience to fit the service around my class schedule! I am a flexible person none the less:) I have a fenced yard for my dog to keep them from getting out and my cat is an inside cat who stay in the upstairs bedrooms

“I can not recommend Laura highly enough. She has been dependable and my dog Baxter loves her visits! She consistently sends updates and photos during the visits.”

Rachel B.

“It was extremely professional and courteous… There were moments where I was in a rush and forgot to pack his food, she was accommodating and took care of it on her own”
