1. Ashlynn A.
“Ashlynn was easy to work with and went out of her way to make me feel comfortable with a new experience. She was incredibly friendly and I felt safe leaving my dog, Jade in her hands.”
2. Brooklin R.
“Brooklin will be a wonderful candidate for your program. She owns two cats that are more than just cats to her, they are her fur babies and they live like royalty. When visiting my home she treats my two dogs and cat as if they are her own. In fact, when she comes to visit, they flock to her as much if not more than they do to me. You will be lucky to have her care for any pet.”

5. John-Paul R.
“John-Paul was excellent with my reactive dog. My dog has some anxiety around other dogs so walks in public can be tough so John-Paul has always been super careful about where and when he walks him. John-Paul is also always very respectful when he is in my home, he is polite and respectful to both myself and my Dog. I would recommend any dog owner to John-Paul.”

“Kat is absolutely wonderful with pets, she’s taken care of my cats and dog plenty of times and she’s always so sweet and patient with them. I have a dog who is still learning to behave on a leash and she was great at handling her.”
7. Nolan M.
About: I have taken care of family/neighbor pets my whole upbringing, I also have a dog and cat of my own! I have an extremely energetic 2 year old husky and a rambunctious orange cat. Although it’s a lot of work, taking care of animals is very fun and rewarding to me. Currently, I am looking for part time employment. I have a very open schedule for the summer season. I’m taking a few online classes for college, but with that comes a lot of flexibility! I will treat your pet as it was my own, I have plenty of crates/accessories for your pets comfort needs. Having animals myself I know what it takes to fit all their needs.
8. Olivia S.
“Olivia’s walked my two girls a few times and has always been great. This review is specifically to express my gratitude that she was able to fit in a walk at the last minute when my schedule suddenly changed. It was a huge relief!”
9. Katharine K.

10. Ralph B.
“I wanted to take some time to highly recommend Ralph Branch as a trusted dog walker. I have had the pleasure of knowing Ralph for 8 years and he has become a great and trusted friend. I have two dogs, a 75 lb. Red Heeler/Pittie mix named Coyote, and a 60 lb. Blue Heeler Mix named Cassidy. My dogs are my children, and I won’t just trust them with anyone so I greatly value Ralph’s presence in my pups’ lives. Coyote is an easygoing dog that loves everyone, but Cassidy is very shy and picky with who she likes and trusts. Incredibly, Cassidy warmed up to Ralph soon after meeting him and they connected, which immediately won mine and my husband’s trust. Ralph is reliable, accommodating, and punctual and above all, my dogs’ happiness and well-being are always top priority for Ralph. Coyote and Cassidy love Ralph and it’s apparent in their excitement every time they see him. Ralph has now become our full-time dog walker as well as the person we can rely on to watch our pups for overnight trips. Ralph is an invaluable asset to our family because we can trust him to take full care of and consideration of all our dog’s needs.”
11. Haley & Mitchell W.
“Haley W. has watched my two dogs on many occasions. They both adore her. She is so attentive and loving with them. My dogs enjoy playing ball with Haley but mostly they love cuddle time with her. She is super trustworthy and such a kind person.”
12. Kandi N.
“Kandi has taken the time to make friends with our dog. She took him jogging around the Lake stopping frequently to let him be a dog. So glad we found her!!!”
13. Stefani F.
“Stefani has extensive at home training as well as amazing dog handling experience. You are in absolute wonderful hands with having your pet in her care!”
14. Fallon M.
About: My love for animals started at an early age and then progressed when I volunteered at animal shelters! Furthering that passion I then decided to join the animal hospital of Waynesville’s team to continue my education in becoming a vet tech! I am fear free certified and use that special approach/technique when pet sitting. I work full time so my schedule varies weekly, but weekends I have the most availability! I am pretty flexible and local to the Waynesville area. I prefer not to keep any pets in my home due to my own critters. They are nervous beings so to limit their stress I will only offer services in your home!
15. Morgan N.
“Morgan was great! Took my pup for a long walk/run”
16. Annie B.

18. Emily V.
About: Hi! I’m Emily. I grew up for most of my life fostering dogs with my family, we had dogs from a variety of situations and gave them love they needed. I continued dog walking and pet sitting throughout college. I have many years of experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I do not currently have a dog of my own due to lack of time that a puppy needs to be properly trained, but I do live with an amazing German Shepherd. I love to hike and stay active. I am a high energy person and can keep up with dogs and would love a chance to meet yours! I have plenty of time to play with your dogs!! I am available morning/ afternoon/ and evening. As well as pretty much anytime for extended stays! I cannot currently offer in home care at my home due to leasing restrictions. I am more than happy to come to your home to take care of your pup!
19. Kate H.
“Kate is amazing with Chipper. We highly recommend her. She goes above and beyond and helped us last minute!”
20. Robin S.
“Robin took such great care of my pets! I have two large dogs who can be nervous meeting new people and she jumped right in with no problem! She was able to medicate my cat and exceeded expectations with extra attention to all the babies. Would definitely use her again!”
