Dog Walkers in Finklea, SC

About: Growing up in the animal rescue and care world, I’ve looked after everything from horses to mice. Over the years, I’ve fostered, reconditioned, and rehomed abused and abandoned animals, helping them learn to trust again. I’m experienced in animal behavior across life stages, including neonatal and senior pets. My goal is to provide every animal I meet with as much love, guidance, and attentive care as they deserve. I live on a small homestead with my husband, a stay-at-home dad and disabled veteran, and our four children. I’m a self-employed Realtor and the owner of LABZ Pet and Farm Sitting Services LLC, so I have the flexibility to build my schedule around my clients’ needs. I’m currently attending Unity Environmental University, working toward my Bachelor of Science in Companion Animal Behavior. My program is fully online, which means I can bring my laptop with me and easily keep up with coursework during overnight stays or extended sits. I strictly follow the guidelines and routines you provide, because you know your pets best. When no specific instructions are given, I use a thoughtful, age-appropriate schedule for dogs and cats at different life stages. In general, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and engaged: walking and playtime, refilling food and water according to your specifications, cleaning up any messes, and providing baths when needed. I can also pick up pet supplies or groceries upon request, so you come home to happy pets and a stress-free environment.

About: I treat every pet like family—because they deserve nothing less. With experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, I understand that each pet has unique needs. I’m patient, attentive, and trained in basic obedience techniques, making me especially skilled with energetic pups or pets needing a little extra guidance. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life—it doesn’t feel like a task, it feels like time well spent. I structure my days to prioritize the pets in my care, making sure they get the attention, exercise, and affection they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I enjoy creating a routine that makes each pet feel safe and loved. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I stick to each pet’s routine as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding times, walks, medication, or cuddle sessions. I never leave pets unattended for long periods, and I make sure they get both mental and physical stimulation throughout the day. In a client’s home, I respect their space and their pet’s established routine. I follow all instructions carefully, from meal prep to walk routes, and make sure pets get the same love and attention they’re used to. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you always know how your furry friend is doing.

About: Hi! I’m a proud mom and lifelong dog lover who understands that pets are family.

I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I look forward to giving your furry family member the attention, love, and care they deserve.

About: Beyond the care for my own personal doggies, I have 5 years of experience working at a premier doggy day care and boarding facility, Camp Bow Wow. Here, I cared for many dogs at once all varying in breeds, size and ages. I was responsible for supervising play time, feeding, administering medications, basic grooming and cleaning. I have also had experience with my own personal pet care boarding service out of my home where I have mostly cared for dogs in my home but have house/farm sat for clients. I'm currently in veterinary school so my schedule can be sparse at times. I am available on the weekends as well as Wednesday mornings with the potential for some afternoon care the rest of the week days. I care for others pets just as I would my own. When I care for pets in their own home, I love and care for them just as I would mine and uphold any special request the owners leave for me. I like to send photos and precise updates to owners while caring for their pets. I can relate to the desire to hear from a pet sitter since I have my own!

My experience includes dogs of all ages, from raising puppies to caring for senior dogs, and I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. During the summer, I have a flexible schedule due to being off from my full-time job, which allows me to accommodate a variety of walking and drop-in visit times. I'm happy to work with your dog's routine and can often provide weekday and daytime availability. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a longtime dog owner and caregiver, I understand the importance of patience, attentiveness, and building trust with every dog. I've cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs, and I always tailor my approach to each dog's personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, fetch, or a slower-paced outing, they'll receive plenty of care, supervision, and affection while they're with me.

I also have experience caretaking adults with disabilities. Which included cooking, helping them bathe and scheduling/taking them to their appointments. Currently, I am working part-time with a caregiving business so there’s wiggle room in my schedule if you are in need of someone to look after your pups. I can do drop in visits to give pets food/water and for potty breaks. I can walk/jog with pups to give high energy dogs exercise. Since I work from home, I can give a lot of time and attention for longer stays.

About: I’ve taken care all of sorts of animals since I was 12 years old! I live on a farm with many animals so I have experience with almost any situation. I started dog sitting and cat sitting around the same time. My neighbors, friends, and family trust me to walk, feed, play, and care for their furry humans because I treat them like they are my own! I love all animals dearly, and I would never do anything to put them in harms way. I am currently a student at Coastal Carolina University, so my schedule works around my classes. On Mondays I have a class from 12-12:50. Tuesdays I have class from 11:30-12:30 and another class from 2:30-5:20. Wednesdays I have a class from 10:30-12 and 1-1:50.

If a time is not listed here, please feel free to ask if I am available. I live in an apartment style dorm with my own room. Our community is not fenced in, however, a leash would need to be with the animal if I take him/her home with me. All animals where I live are required to have a collar and a leash on when outside. We have a beautiful pond and outdoor trails that are perfect for walks!

I am the sole owner/operator of My Kids Have Paws Pet Sitting, and I have relocated to Conway, SC. I've built a successful clientele base in Colleton County over the last several years, and I'm excited to bring my experience, passion, and love for all animals to Horry County this October 2024. I have a special place in my heart for furry, four-legged kids. I've opened my heart and home to many dogs & cats through the years, and I'd love to share that love with your precious family members. Animals are where my heart is, and I love spending my day engulfed in the unbridled enthusiasm and love that these wonderful creatures provide. I've also really enjoyed volunteering at animal shelters, and I wish that I could rescue them all. That's just one reason you can trust me to care for your pet as if they were my own. I've made caring for your furry kids my full-time DREAM job. My services include a drop-in visit while you're away or overnight care in your home. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and reptiles, and my specialty is small farms including chickens/birds, horses, pigs, goats and cows.

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes as well as 9 years professionally training dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds and temperaments. I train basic and advanced obedience, working dogs, service animals and more. I am confident and comfortable caring for dogs that otherwise might be difficult for others without experience in the behavioral field, while keeping safety at the forefront of every interaction. Additionally, I have 5 years of vet tech experience, giving me the ability and willingness to care for pets with medical problems, senior pets, pets requiring medication or pets with special needs. I have owned and cared for farm animals for much of my teenage and adult life, allowing me to offer care for pets outside of the home such as bovine, horses, goats, pigs and chickens. I am comfortable with birds, reptiles and exotic pets, having raised rabbits most of my life as well as owning guinea pigs, snakes, sugar gliders and a quaker parrot. I am CPR certified and have attended several emergency care courses for cats and dogs. My passion has led me to providing pet care and dog training services full-time, allowing for me to provide services for you and your pets year-round! I provide pet care and training services full time, year-round! I am available for last minute requests and can handle care for pets with special needs or behavioral problems- keeping safety for both parties as a priority. I am situated on 4 acres in Loris. I am set up to care for dogs of different temperaments and preferences and have multiple fenced in yards to allow for play times and potty times in small groups or individually as needed. In the summertime, morning bathroom breaks are longer to allow for plenty of playtime before it gets too hot outside. I provide at LEAST 4 bathroom breaks throughout the day. During peak heat hours, outside breaks are shorter but indoor play is prioritized. Once things cool off in the evening, I provide another longer playtime outside. Not every dog cares for or does well with other dogs so temperament testing will be done before they are free to play with the others. All dogs are supervised when out at all times. Dogs in my home will be kenneled for bedtime or if I need to run a short errand (groceries, doctor appointment, private training lesson with a client, etc.) Care in the client's home will be discussed before the job starts. Everybody has different preferences and I strive to provide the best care possible for pets while owners are away!
