Dog Walking Happy Valley

“Neil was a perfect fit for my doggos! My mini Aussie is skeptical of new people and he was patient with her and my golden(who is easy going) enjoyed Neil caring for him as well. He’s communicative and quick to respond which I appreciate while I’m away from my animals. I’d recommend Neil to anyone who needs a trustworthy, patient, understanding and great with instructions dog watcher.”

About: Proud calico cat parent with a big heart for all animals - cats, dogs, and birds included! I started dog walking back in elementary school and have loved caring for pets ever since. I'll keep your pets safe, happy, and loved while you're away - reliable, caring, and committed to treating them like family. I work as a delivery driver for Kickback so my schedule is really flexible and I have reliable transportation. I am usually working dinner time hours but I can accommodate for your pets needs! I follow your pet's normal routine to keep them happy and stress-free. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after them, and keeping their space tidy. I also provide updates and photos so you know they're happy and well cared for while you're away.

About: I cared for family dogs, cats & horses through childhood & my 20s. Here in Asheville, I've had two dogs (one at a time) for 13 years. I am attuned to safety & health first; then I focus on play/walking to provide fun & exercise for emotional, mental & physical stimulation. In addition to having food, water, shelter & a comfortable temperature, all pets need to feel safe, loved & respected. I am gentle, thorough, attentive, & caring, & I follow all instructions carefully. I have worked with puppies through senior dogs as well as my flighty, 52-lb. 6-yr-old reactive Pit Bull/Cane Corso rescue, whom I walk daily & hike with weekly. I've used the Behavior Adjustment & Doggy Dan training systems with this sweet companion, who had been abused & neglected before I adopted her at 14 months. I have done drop-in visits for friends for 10 yrs. & can give medications orally, in ears & as injections. Before a first service, I do a meet & greet to get to know you & your furry friend & learn about how your canine relates to people, other dogs, cats, squirrels & rabbits. Activiies include playing fetch, tug of war, food puzzles & your pup's favorites. I'm available for drop-ins and dog walking between 7:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Also I'm free between 6:00 and 8:00 p.m. I am a fulltime pet care giver. At this time, I do not stay overnight with pets in my home or my clients' homes. Instead, I do 30-minute drop-in visits and 30-minute walks in clients' neighborhoods.

“Megan was so caring for my pups! She kept in touch with updates and pictures, and made sure they got exercise and extra love in my absence. I definitely plan to use her in the future!”

“What a wonderful treat to meet Bess (she goes by her middle name) today! She was just lovely, and Ziggy took to her immediately. Miraculously, my senior guy walked nearly a mile with her. We look forward to seeing Bess again soon.”

About: i don't have a lot of experience in dog care other than taking care of friends dogs or the last few years, but i love being around dogs and really care about getting them out and giving them the exercise and social experiences they need. I love to take dogs our on runs and give them social opportunities with other dogs. I love animals and would love to be given the opportunity to love yours. The majority of my work is all open ended and very flexible. I can work pet care into all aspects of my life. There isn’t a lot that i’m doing currently that can take my attention away from your pets. I will not be bringing any pets to my house, but i will come to yours and do over night stays, extended stays, or walk your dogs if you will be out for more than 4 hours at a time. I will make sure your dogs and cats get clean fresh water and fed by whatever times you wish. i will keep the liter box clean and the yard clean as well.

About: I have been a veterinary nurse at an AAHA accredited hospital for the last 6 years, and prior to that, worked at an additional hospital as well as a pet store with exotics. I am more than comfortable administering any method of medication, and taking care of your medical needs, special needs, or senior fur babies. I own two friendly dogs, two sassy cats, and a baby ball python myself- variety is the spice of life. If you’re looking for a medically experienced caretaker for your kids, I’m your gal! *also have grooming experience with medical needs animals I just moved to the Asheville area, so Im excited to explore around. I have just taken a M-Th veterinary position, but I still plan on working Rover into my schedule! I have two friendly dogs, who will play with dogs that want to play, ignore the ones who don’t, and will be gentle with the young and little ones. I do not have a yard, but I am very active and used to taking my large dogs for >3-4 mile walks daily.

“Jacqueline was great with Gus! Gus took to her quickly and was very happy with his walks. I would definitely work with Jacqueline again! Jacqueline is a great communicator.”

About: As a former alpaca and goat farmer with over 16 years of experience, I thoroughly enjoy caring for animals. Watching with wonder with each new interaction and savoring the sweet moments of all living beings brings much joy. I currently work full time as a special education instructional assistant but I am flexible in the evenings (after 4pm), on weekends and during the summer. I take pride in following through with expectations with compassion and excellence. I also enjoy taking photos and sharing documentation of your animal’s wellbeing with you.

About: I have two dogs at home. I have taken my oldest to puppy kindergarten when he was little and trained him and also trained my other dog as well. They are well trained and behaved. I am currently out of school and am looking for some side work while I try to get a other job. I have house and pet sat and babysat in the past so this would be easy. I have a beautiful big fenced yard to play and two very sweet dogs(one 12 year old boy and one 4 year old girl). I have a nice walk from my house I go on with my dogs often.

About: I have been taking care of other people's animals since middle school and just love getting to know your pets! Experience with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, and fish! Willing to take on pets with medical needs! I work 40 hours over 5 days days a week. I am typically away from the house from 9 am - 5 pm or 11 am - 7 pm. Depending on your location, I may be able to pop back to the house on my short lunch break. I am comfortable walking your animals on leashes, pushing them in strollers, using a treadmill, playing with them in the yard, or whatever else is your routine and preference!

About: I've taken care of just about every animal since I was born. Especially cats and dogs but I've also taken care of reptiles, fish, chickens, rats, gerbils, hamsters, and even bugs. I've handled difficult dog breeds including pitbulls and preydriven rottweilers in a cat home. I am also not shy to pee or poop or any sick pets as I've been in and out of the vets offices as well. Im looking to possibly make this full time. So I am available just about whenever you need me to be there. This includes weekends as well. I am very pet friendly and enjoy being interactive no matter the species. Whether it's letting the crickets run so the bearded dragon can get some exercise or walking the puppy around the yard.

About: I'm an animal lover looking to care for your beloved dogs and cats. I can't imagine a home without a pet and I care for your animals as if they were my own. I am currently available to provide dog walks, care for your cats or other small animals, and stay with your animals overnight. I'm happy to pet sit at your home and can water plants, pick up mail, etc while you are away and will consider boarding dogs at my home if they are able to cohabitate with a cat. I can provide both personal and professional references. We can discuss each animal on a case by base basis; including what you are looking for when caring for your animals, payment, and transportation. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pets! I work full-time as a pet sitter. I accept work on a first come first serve basis. Previous worked in MA and now in Asheville. While caring for your dogs and cats I will clean up common messes, vomit, the occasional indoor poop from small dogs and spraying from male cats. If your pets create more extensive cleaning there may be an additional cleaning fee.

About: I am very patient and caring, and this is reflected in my care of animals. I have worked with cats and dogs of all different temperaments, including puppies, so I know how to adjust my care based on the needs or personality of the pet. I am currently working part-time, but I would love to spend my extra time with your pets! My schedule changes week to week, but as long as everything is communicated ahead of time I am happy to work you in. I have one cat at home, although he prefers to be the only animal in the house. In terms of care in the clients home, I am open and flexible to whatever they need, whether that is a long walk, crating the dog, or just time outside to play and get energy out.

About: I have had many pets! Currently, I am a mother to a cat, an angora rabbit, and a leopard gecko. In my past, I have formed wonderful relationships with two sugar gliders, foster kittens and a handful of beta fish. I am also a frequent visitor of The Lehigh Valley Humane Society and Vet Clinic. As I am a student at Lehigh University, I have a flexible schedule. I am able to commute within 4 miles, rain or shine! I can commit to a consistent daily/weekly appointments as my class times do not change. I meet your pet where they are! I am friendly but will not overstep my boundaries. My utmost concern is always making sure your pet is safe and healthy.
