Dog Walkers in Foscoe, NC

About: I have worked in small animal rescue for years now, and while I’m a full time student I hope to care for your pets! Specifically, I have worked in dog and cat socialization, diet preparation, and healthcare. I am able to clean up after your pet, walk them, play with them, feed them, and administer medications! I am a full-time student, so while I am busy, it is very flexible and on my terms! I spend lots of time outdoors and have many pet-loving friends I know the ins and outs of pet care, and I think that supporting our pets is our most important job! I can perform most essential tasks necessary, and feel very comfortable caring for pets.

About: Hi! My name is Morgan, and I am a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all types, sizes, and personalities. I grew up surrounded by animals as my mom owned a pet store, so caring for pets has always been second nature to me, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I currently help care for my sister’s and my cat, Stormy, and recently said goodbye to our senior Yorkie, Lola, who taught me so much about gentle and attentive senior care. I’m a go-to pet sitter for my friends and family, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs playtime, structured walks, medication, or simply a calm and caring presence, I’m here to make sure they can get whatever they need while you’re away. I graduated from Appalachian State University in December and currently work at a nonprofit art gallery in Boone. My schedule there is Tuesday through Thursday, which leaves me available most Mondays, Fridays, and weekends for pet care. I’d love to use my free time to help care for your pets! I am available for daily walks, drop-in visits, including providing food and fresh water, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I provide attentive and reliable care that fits your pet’s specific routine and personality. During walks, I prioritize safety and engagement, making sure your pet gets the right balance of exercise and enrichment. I’m attentive to leash manners, surroundings, weather conditions, and your pet’s comfort level. If your dog loves long, energetic walks or prefers a slower stroll, I will tailor each outing to their needs. I also understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to follow your usual schedule and household routines to help them feel secure while you’re away.

About: I have been pet-sitting for many people in my neighborhood since I was 11. I love animals and providing a loving presence while their owners are away! I am a student at App State, and committed to my studies, but can certainly fit in time to take care of your furry ones. Right now I’m taking a summer class in the month of June, which is 8-10 am everyday. I usually work in the evenings during the week. I’ll always let you know if I’m working during your booking! At my apartment I keep my cat, Lucy, inside. She’s fed twice a day and I clean out her litter box every day. My roommates all love her too. When I had dogs growing up, we had a fenced in backyard and loved taking them out on adventures and playing with them at home.

About: I have a long history of in house pet sitting over the last 15 years as well as caring for my own. I feel comfortable with puppies, older dogs, giving medicine and exercising hyper dogs. I have 15 year old super mutt (junkyard dog as we like to say) and a 1.5 year old chocolate lab who are both well socialized and love all dogs. I have an extremely flexible schedule currently. Id love to be walking any dogs during the work day so they are nice and rested when you get home! My pets are beyond spoiled. But I wouldn't have it any other way! I love all dogs and will treat yours like my own! I like to maintain routines for pets and make sure they have a good balance of stimulation and rest.

“I had an emergency and needed someone to take my two rough collies on their twice-daily walks. One is a retired service dog who is deaf, and the other is a young collie with epilepsy. Because of their special needs, I was quite anxious about finding the right person. Caitlin was exactly what I needed. She had a calm, reassuring presence and was warm, gentle, and playful with both dogs. She quickly understood their individual needs. By the second day, they were eagerly waiting for her arrival. Luna, the service dog, had never “done her business” on a leash before, but with Caitlin, she had no hesitation. Seeing that I have limited mobility, Catlin asked if there were other things she could do to be helpful.. I admire her initiative and appreciated her help. I will definitely be calling on her again.”

“Kayla is very timely with walking our dog and thorough with her responsibilities. And I bet if our pooch could do it, he’d give Kayla two paws up. I recommend her.”

About: I grew up on a farm and so I have been taking care of a variety of animals since I was a child. I’ve had many dogs and cats as well as other farm animals so I have a wide range of experiences. I am capable of both infant and senior animal care if needed as well. I am currently a student and working part time but I have lots of time before and after my classes and work to care for animals, I have a car and live close to the town center of Boone. I have my own cat who I take care of but I love to spend time with any animal I care for making sure they get enough socialization in addition to any feeding or cleaning they might need.

I believe every walk is an adventure, and I love to play and have fun with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Your pup will get plenty of exercise, love, and attention while they’re with me. I will also treat your dog with the same love I give to my own family. My schedule is pretty relaxed especially now being summer so I will have much time to care for your pet's needs practically all day if necessary! I have been taking care of my own dogs for years and will be able to ensure that they are safely kept inside/outside during the day and in their proper sleeping quarters for night.

About: Retired from workforce, former military, active person, daily walks with our dogs—neighborhood, parks, trails. Worked with certified dog trainer for our two dogs. Time on my hands.

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routine as closely as possible—whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle time. I always prioritize the pet’s comfort and safety, keeping their space clean and their needs fully met. I love sending updates and photos so owners feel connected while they’re away.

“I highly recommend Emerson. She walked my one-year-old Golden Retriever Jackson 3x a day for a week. When she came for her initial visit, I could immediately tell she was an animal lover and would treat Jackson as if he were her own dog. I also instantly saw how comfortable and confident she was walking a larger, energetic puppy – she had complete control. Throughout the week, she was incredibly prompt, professional and reliable. She gave regular, detailed and fun updates throughout the week. I could not recommend her more highly.”
