Dog Walking First Ward

“Hi Anthony-I appreciated you being available in short notice. And I’m grateful for the time you gave on Friday. I am going to cancel the bookings for this week though because the extra dog fee was more than I am used to paying for a 30 minute walk. It has nothing to do with you - you were great.”

Andi R.

“Amanda has been such an amazing friend to Cosmo. We moved to 4th ward last week and the change was stressful on the little guy. Amanda immediately established a rapport with him and they have great walks together. She is also very punctual and communicates well.”

“John has been on time, good with communication, and easy to work with!”

Jon S.

“Daniesha was great! My dog was well taken care of, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. Communication was great, and I really appreciated the updates throughout. I would definitely book her again and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter or dog walker!”

Tamia B.

“Very quick to respond and great with my pup.”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, starting with our family dog growing up. By college, friends were already looking towards me to take care of their pets, and that’s when I discovered I love cats just as much as dogs. I do have a real soft spot for senior dogs and pets with a disability. Including giving daily medications, so if your pet needs a patient, steady hand, I’ve got you covered. Same with grooming, I never force it. I let your pet get comfortable with me first, on their timeline. My goal is to build trust with your pet, learn your daily routine, and stick to it so they feel at ease while you’re away. I also like to send you photos and updates so you can relax and enjoy your time apart, worry free. I'm an early bird and a bit of a homebody, so your pet won't be left alone for long stretches. It's your home, it's your pet, it's your rules. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and unbothered, and I send photo updates according to your timing preference. I treat your home like my own. I keep doors and gates secured, double check locks before leaving, and always use a leash outside unless you tell me otherwise. I follow your feeding, medication, and walking instructions exactly, and I keep your vet's info handy just in case. If anything seems off, you'll hear from me right away. I also like to get emergency contact information in case you are not available.

About: Hi! I’m Auzrey, a pet-loving remote worker with a flexible schedule and an active lifestyle. I go on daily walks, in addition to 1–2 runs a week, so I would love having your precious pets join me for some exercise and fresh air. I live alone and have no pets of my own, so your pet isn’t competing for care or space. I’m patient, reliable, and happy to adjust to your pet’s routine, whether they’re high-energy and love to play or need extra care due to age or anxiety. While I’m not a professional trainer, I’m confident with both puppies and older dogs, and I always prioritize clear communication and consistent care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine :) Working fully remote allows me to be able to take regular breaks for walks, potty breaks, and playtime. I already go on regular walks and runs, so I would love to have a four-legged companion join me. Whether it’s sticking to a routine or burning off energy, I’m happy to tailor the day to your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment with a small on-site dog park that's great for potty breaks and quick outdoor time throughout the day. Because I work from home full-time, I’m able to keep a close eye on your pet and quickly respond to their needs, whether that means a walk, water refill, or just some attention. In your home or mine, I can stick to your pet’s routines and keep their environment calm, clean, and secure. I never take on more than I can handle, and I will also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: I’m new to Rover, but not new to pet care. I’ve cared for many pets over the years and have additional reviews and testimonials from other platforms that I’m always happy to share so you can feel fully confident leaving your pet in my care. I love knowing pet owners can truly relax while they’re away, feeling confident their fur baby is safe, cared for, and genuinely loved. I provide daily updates and photos so you can stay connected and see exactly how they’re doing. I enjoy caring for pets of all kinds, from playful puppies and senior dogs to shy cats and curious little explorers. I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and meet them where they are. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, snuggles, feeding routines, litter care, and giving medication. I’m especially patient with shy or slow to warm up pets, and I make sure high energy pets get the activity and stimulation they need. I keep routines consistent and treat your home with the same care and respect, so you can fully relax knowing everything is in attentive, loving hands. I am pretty flexible both in my daily and weekly schedule and willing to work with you to accommodate your needs the best i can (: I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routines as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications so your pets feel secure and well cared for. I spend quality time with them, whether that means going for walks, playing, or just giving them extra love and company. I also make sure your home feels cared for while you are away. That means keeping things tidy, bringing in mail or packages if needed, watering plants, and always leaving everything just as I found it. I like to send photo updates so you can see how your pets are doing and feel reassured while you are gone.

About: I am so excited to help out with your fur babies! I grew up on a farm and both of my parents are veterinarians so our pets were always the most important part of our day! I have experience taking care of small, medium, and large (and extra large) dog breeds. I currently have my own 4 year old golden retriever and a 6 year old kitty. They are family to me! I currently have plenty of availability on the days reflected in my calendar during mornings, day time, and evenings. I look forward to caring for your pets. I will mainly be available for drop-ins and dog walks. I have a dog and a cat at home so I will not be housing any pets in my home. I am very clean, respectful and honest!

About: I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them is something I love. I took some vet classes in high school that helped me learn the basics! Such as their body behavior, basic handling, and how to administer medication. I also gained some experience with grooming and caring for senior dogs, as I understand older pets need extra patience and attention. I’ve trained my own dog to perform many tricks and sleep on his own, so if you have a puppy I’d be more than happy to show them some basic tricks and commands during our time together. While training takes time I’m always happy to help them learn more and build good habits. I’m currently available to do walks or pet visits in the evening where I can then on a walk or even go to the park and play. I’m a full time student and worker as well so for right now the only days I’m available are Friday and Sundays for boarding, pet sitting, and home visits and need at least a 2 day notice please! I live in an apartment where there is a little doggy park and it’s a very dog friendly environment. Inside my apartment they are able to be on the furniture and be with me at all times. I will be taking them out every 1-2 hours or if you need me to do it more often I would be more than happy to. While they are with me if you have any extra requests to have them be on the bed or keep them in their crate I will be happy to follow that.

About: I have had dogs in my family since birth, and now care for my boy Baxter (lab/golden retriever mix). I love dogs of all shapes and sizes Taking care of animals is my number 1 priority. I have a very flexible schedule to cater to needs throughout the week at any time As a pet owner, I know that the lists of things that are off limit for any animal can be long and often different from one another. I am attentive to any specific needs your animal may have.

“Salina goes above and beyond for every walk. I wish I needed her more. Great job on always fitting us in.”

“Erica was amazing, took care of jax just like we asked, sent pics and overall can’t wait to have her back!”

About: I’ve kept friends and family members dogs for 10+ years. Experienced with and love all breeds, especially large ones. I love active dogs who need to be walked and happy to do long-term stays for people who travel. I keep my parents 100lb lab frequently, and I would love to take care of more people’s dogs! I work full-time in Uptown Charlotte, with 2 remote days weekly. I’m able to let dogs out at lunch that are close to my office. Happy to walk dogs in the morning and evening, depending on your schedule. Dogs have a special place in my heart, and I’m willing to do whatever you need to make your dog comfortable (i.e., give meds, long walks, go to the park, snuggle)

“This was our first Rover walk for Coug. He can be nervous with new people, and Rachel was patient, kind, and understanding of his personality. She communicated well and made me feel comfortable knowing he was being cared for. I would happily book with Rachel again.”

About: I have lived with / owned pets since I was born, and currently I have 2 cats of my own! I love cats and dogs, and will take very good care of any that I watch! I love giving them exercise, good food, and scratches. I am available during most weekends to take care of your fur babies! I work a corporate 8-5, but I am available when I’m not working my full time job. I make sure that pets are fed, have enough water, get exercise, and attention. As a pet owner I know how much people miss their pets when they are out of town, so I will send lots of pictures!

“Karen is the best! My little girl loves her to pieces and she doesn't warm up to everyone! Karen is also great with my annoying last minute requests and changes! I def recommend her!”

Jamie P.

“Alexander helped me out when I found myself in a pinch at the last minute. He walked my dog twice a day for multiple days. He was punctual and communicative via the app. I will definitely reach out to him in the future.”
