Dog Walkers in Elkin, NC

“Danielle took great care of my little Daisy! She came and walked her for 30mins for three days while I was at work. I would continue to request her for further puppy needs!!”

“Alyssa is a thoughtful, kind, loving and patient person. She puts others above herself & always works to bless others. I would not hesitate to let her take care of my pets.”

“Jaszmyn is very patient and happy to accommodate to your animal’s needs. I like that she takes plenty of pictures so that you’re assured your pet is in good hands! I trust Jaszmyn to take care of my own handful of a pup, Coco, on future occasions. I would definitely recommend her to pet sit, whether it’s just for a few of hours or a couple days!”

“I first met CJ about two years ago at a flyball tournament. She and her dogs participate in many dog sports, and she does a wonderful job training them and keeping them active and engaged. Her dogs have everything they could possibly need or want, and she goes to great lengths to do what's best for them. She has experience with dogs of all ages, including raising several litters of puppies. She gives them all the best care right from the very beginning. I would not hesitate to have her care for my dogs.”

“My mom said that my dog, Aru, wiggle butts so hard when Jeff comes to walk him that it looks like he'll snap in half. I would highly recommend and will continue to book with him.”

About: **Please note I am disabled and hard of hearing. I will always prefer texts over phone calls. **Check out what your babies get up to and the pictures/videos I didn’t end up sending on our Facebook or Instagram page, Zig Zag Wag pet care! I have experience with a variety of animals, including dogs and cats, horses and livestock, rodents and reptiles, and everything from basic grooming including nail trims and baths to basic behavior training. (See safety section for further details) I have experience with basic first aid. I have pretty much free and short notice availability, thought I limit bookings on WEDNESDAYS and SUNDAYS as my days off. I have a whole zoo worth of pets and need to stop by my own house throughout the day, so any house sitting will be based on regular visits. I have reliable transportation and excellent driving skills in case of needing to transport. My vehicle has a crash tested seat belt and I have a few crash tested harnesses if you do not have one, though providing your own sized for your dog is preferred. I will not provide transport for animals other than cats or dogs and cats and small dogs must be tolerant of being crated for the ride. I am great at working with your schedule with at least 2 hours notice, but Rover does not allow easy schedule changes. If you need to reduce your visits, CANCEL the booking and REBOOK with your new dates, as once Rover confirms your booking it won’t let you reduce the current rate. In your home, I offer basic cleaning services and can ensure any messes get cleaned. I can meet many varied needs and am meticulous with following your house rules for your pets. I do not offer boarding or allow client pets at my home. I will not provide food or other consumables, though I will confirm what treats your pets can have because all good pets deserve treats. I provide basic behavior assistance such as teaching your dog that jumping on people is inappropriate, basic tricks (sit, down, paw), leash manners, but I DO NOT OFFER PAID TRAINING. I am not a certified trainer in any capacity, though I have trained many of my own animals (including rats and cats!)

“Wow. This was my first time using Rover and Kristin and her mom were outstanding! Moose (my four legged) was loved up, taken care of and they were always on time, kind, and considerate. Thank you!! I highly recommend.”

“Heather is AWESOME! She is so good with my sweet Macy (schnoole). She takes pride and care in everything she does and I never have to worry when I know she is helping take care of my girl! It takes a lot for my husband to trust someone to come into our home and he trusts Heather.”

“Cassy has years of experience caring for, watching, and training dogs. She has handled them up to 110lbs so far, and I would trust her any day to take care of my energetic German Shepherd!”

“Destiny lives down the street from me and she watches my dog luna while I’m out of town or working a long shift. Luna absolutely loves her and she is great with her. She doesn’t just come and let her outside and feed her but she spends time playing with her and showing her some love while I’m not there. Destiny is very dependable and trustworthy. When I go out of town she will even stay the night at my house to make luna feel more comfortable. She is such a sweet animal lover.”

“Sara is amazing. Hands down. I have two boys (chocolate lab and golden retriever) who she has taken care of on multiple occasions when I have been out of town. They absolutely love her! She makes sure that they are on the same schedules as when I'm home, and spends extra time with them so they don't feel so alone when I'm not home. They look forward to her coming! Hands down would recommend Sara to anyone for your furbabies!”

“Heather is a wonderful and loving animal caretaker! She has watched my two pups regularly for over 3 years now and we love her! Now that she’s moved to more land, we will be visiting her more often as our pups love to run and play with her. She’s very attentive and responsive, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dogs. Highly recommend!!”

“Bridgette is the very best care giver I have ever had. She’s very dependable caring compassionate and energetic person I’ve ever met. My blaze loves her to death and cries in excitement when he sees her and when she leaves he cries from sadness she’s gone. She always goes above and beyond what is expected of her. I will always use Bridgette for my fur baby needs.”

“Paige has helped take care of my dogs and my cat for several years. She's great with animals! She's patient, knowledgeable, and very dependable. She's also taken care of our neighbor's dog, cat, and their house while vacationing. I would definitely recommend her to anybody needing pet care.”

About: I got my first pet when I was 10 years old. I've had years of experience caring for a turtle, rabbit, and several dogs. I've potty trained 3 puppies, so I'd be happy to work with your puppies as well! I'm a REALTOR, so I get to make my own schedule! I'm happy to check in on your babies from early morning to late afternoon. I'm used to dogs with lots of energy! I'll be happy to take for a potty break, walk, play, and crate your dog before I leave. I'm used to a lot of responsibility, and have worked/do work in environments where being trustworthy is of the utmost importance.

About: As an avid animal lover I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and attentive to look after your furry family member. I assure you that I prioritize the well-being and happiness of pets under my care above all else. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet feels loved and comfortable in my care. Pet care has been a lifelong passion for me, but I officially began my journey as a pet sitter in 2020. My experience spans a wide range of breed sizes and ages, including extra large breeds like Cane Corsos and Great Pyrenees’, as well as caring for senior dogs and puppies. Additionally, I've had the privilege of house-sitting for pets on a full-time basis for consecutive months while their owners traveled. I'm more than happy to arrange a meet and greet at your convenience. With my flexible schedule and reliable transportation, I'm well-equipped to accommodate your needs! Since I don’t have any pets of my own, yours are always my main focus and I can be very flexible to your needs. I just moved to the area, so I’m filling my time with short term or one time clients while looking for the right long term families. Im great at following precise instructions, including feeding schedules, medication, and exercise routines to ensure your pet doesn’t fall off their schedule if they have one.

“I’m excited to share with you how wonderful of a person Hannah M is! Yes she has cared for 2 of our fur babies for years. Her gently soul will let your pets know that she’s there to love and protect them and make sure they enjoy their time with her. Trust me they will not want to see her go and be so happy to see her come back. Hannah will always be a part of our family🐾”

“Kenslea is very loving, caring, and passionate when it comes to pets.
