Dog Walking Fitzhugh

“Carrie was absolutely wonderful! My dog is shy and she did well with making her feel comfortable. Carrie would send multiple pictures and gave her lots of love! She also realized we would be getting home late and she left a light on for my dog as well as us! How thoughtful!”

About: With roughly four decades of dedicated dog care experience, I offer more than just walks and boarding; I provide a loving home away from home. Every wagging tail receives personalized attention, snuggles, and the patience they deserve. I believe in clear communication and pay meticulous attention to every need and detail, ensuring your furry friend feels safe and cherished. From light training reinforcement to exciting walks and invigorating hikes, every moment is tailored to your dog's happiness and well-being. Entrust your beloved companion to me, where they'll find a second home filled with love, care, and adventure. I currently work part-time (flexibly) from home, so I am able to consistently attend to your pup's needs and provide play, snuggles, and exercise throughout the week/weekend. I have a fenced yard, and live in a neighborhood that is great for walking (I do daily walks and/or hikes). I am happy to adapt to whatever routine your dog is accustomed to, such as crating, furniture rules, walking or feeding routines, etc. I have a 4 year old, female Aussie/Lab mix who has yet to meet an enemy. She is a happy girl with lots of energy, but does not tend to overwhelm dogs who need their space.

About: I've grown up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and the occasional chicken :) I worked as a kennel technician at a veterinary clinic in high school and as a veterinary technician during my undergraduate degree so I have TONS of experience with dogs and cats, both at home and in medical environments. As a veterinary student, I absolutely love animals and want to provide the best care possible! As a vet student, I am mostly available on weekends but the occasional weekday. I am able to pet-sit, go on walks, and host animals at my house (mostly on weekends) I have an outdoor patio area for leash walks and potty breaks. As a veterinary student, I have experience working with all types of animals. I am observant and attentive to their various needs so they stay safe and comfortable!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs of my own, and they’ve taught me so much about patience, responsibility, and the different personalities pets can have. What sets me apart is the level of attention and love I give—I truly treat every pet like my own. I’m known for being reliable, caring, and flexible, and many neighbors and friends trust me with their pets because they know I go above and beyond. Whether it’s following a detailed routine, giving extra cuddles, or helping pets feel comfortable in a new environment, I always make sure they feel safe and happy. I am a college student at Arizona State University and I am home for a few weeks. I don’t currently have a job, so I am very flexible and willing to help out wherever is needed. I treat every pet like part of my family! In my home or yours, I keep their routine the same—meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and snuggles. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved, and I’m always happy to send lots of updates and photos so you know they’re doing great.

About: Hi there! I’m a dedicated animal lover and proud dog mom to three pups of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. To me, animals aren’t just pets—they’re family. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles and companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every animal as if they were my own. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions you provide, because I know the little details matter. You can expect consistent updates, photos, and open communication so you always feel connected and at ease. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and give your pet a happy, stress-free experience. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! 🐾 With three pups of my own, our home already runs on a pet-focused routine—morning and evening walks, scheduled meals, playtime, and lots of love in between. Your pet would fit right into a calm, consistent environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or yours. At home, your pet will be welcomed into a calm, pet-friendly environment alongside my three dogs. We follow a structured routine that includes regular walks, feeding on schedule, playtime, and plenty of affection. I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and included—just like part of the family. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any special preferences. I also keep your home tidy and respect your space while making sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they’re used to. No matter the setting, I prioritize safety, communication, and trust. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for. 🐾

About: New to Rover but caring for pets and homes locally as if they were my own has been part of my life for years. I know how important it is to trust the person you’re leaving your pets with and I take that to heart. I’m patient, reliable, and pay close attention to the little things that keep pets happy and homes feeling cared for. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, including playful puppies and gentle senior pets who may need extra time, medications, or a softer touch. I’m comfortable handling different routines, personalities, and special needs. Beyond pet care, I’m respectful of your home and keep everything tidy so you return to a space that feels just the way you left it—or a little better! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily life because I work remotely from home. That means I’m around throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, meals, playtime, and plenty of companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine, whether they need extra attention, medication, or just a reassuring presence. Having animals around just makes my days better, so it never feels like a job to me. When I’m staying in a client’s home, I keep pets on their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. That means regular meals, walks, playtime, and as many snuggles as they can stand:)

About: I worked in dog care and training in a professional capacity for several years and I now use those skills to help others’ dogs stay happy and healthy. I focus on basic obedience and energy management and I adore all pups, big and small. I love to create a structured but warm environment for the the dogs that I have the pleasure of working with. As a pet sitter, I incorporate visiting pups into the active lifestyle that my dog and I already enjoy - expect plenty of walks, hikes and park visits! My goal as a caretaker is to provide a loving, comfortable and engaging environment for all dogs. I currently work full time from home and I am accepting pups for day care drop off, with the possibility to facilitate boarding once your pup is comfortable! I have a large yard with a 5ft fence and a large deck. We keep multiple water bowls filled indoors and outdoors and allow pups to spend time outside if the temperature is comfortable for them. Please let me know if your pup is adept at escaping yards.

About: Ive been around cats and dogs for my whole life so I know what they need and don't need. I have experience with puppy's and senior dogs that need extra care. I am personally a cat lover but love all animals! Im currently working part-time and a full time student. During the Summer I have plenty of time to care for your pets, however, Winter and Spring may vary. While watching over your pets, I will feed, play, and walk them as needed. I want to build a strong friendship with your pets so that I can keep them happy while you’re gone.

“Kristin communicated very well and was able to take my dog out for walks last min. She even played with him, gave him his treats, and cleaned out his water bowl before she left. Thank you!”

My daily work includes feeding, walking, safely handling dogs, cleaning and sanitizing kennels, monitoring behavior and overall well-being, and communicating with pet parents. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets, anxious or shy dogs, high-energy dogs, and pets who need a little extra patience.

I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care around my regular work schedule, and I keep my Rover calendar updated so clients can see my current availability. When I accept a booking, I make sure I have enough time to follow the pet’s normal routine without rushing. I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication times, and any comfort routines your pet is accustomed to. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and do my best to maintain the pet’s normal schedule and environment. During visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration, basic cleanup, and plenty of attention. I monitor pets for changes in behavior, appetite, bathroom habits, mobility, or general comfort and will communicate promptly if I notice anything concerning. I also provide photo updates and a clear summary of each visit.

“Isabella and her mom were wonderful in communicating and supporting us and Houston in a last minute bind. Loved having them walk our baby and would absolutely recommend.”
