Dog Walking Hickory Ridge

“Dominique was so flexible and kind about a last minute booking. My pup liked her immediately and happily went off on a walk with her. I got lots of pictures even though it was dark and I didn't expect them! Absolutely will book with her again in the future!”

“Gisselle was amazing with our baby!! Very communicative and gives so much love to our boy 💜🐾”

“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: Hey everyone! I am a huge animal lover. I have always had a dog in my home whether it be a family dog or my personal dog. Currently, I have two big, high energy dogs of my own a golden retriever and a husky! I love animals and understand needing to feel like your pet is safe and loved while you’re away! I will treat your furry friends just as I would my own 🩵 I am currently on summer break for work and have open availability for scheduling! Doggy daycare is now available me for the summer to book! I have a fenced in yard and two friendly, high energy dogs as well as a one year old son who loves dogs. My dogs are good with other dogs and children as well. They enjoy playing and running around together! I also have a large crate available for us if your animal is used to being crated. We do walk and lots of play time outside in our backyard.

About: I have spent most of my 36 years caring for animals of all species. As a pet owner of 7 fur babies, one quilled and several feathered friends, I put pet care at the top of my list. As a business owner, working from home I have plenty of time to devote to committing to caring for your pets. My schedule is flexible. Every pet and pet owner has their own unique preferences and needs. I will care for someone else’s pets following specific instructions requested. Beyond a provided guideline, I will pay attention to each pets body language and environmental need. I will provide safe and thorough assistance.

“Casilya has been a god send. Shes deal with our last minute cancellations and additional requests like a champ. She is flexible whenever we need and has made multiple trips when I accidentally locked her out preventing the walk. She could have gone home and charged us anyways but she didn’t she came back to give my pup a much needed walk after I ran home on lunch to unlock the dog patio.”

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was 15, and I have 3 fur babies of my own! I provide dependable and attentive pet care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I prioritize safety, consistency, and compassion, ensuring your pet is well-cared for in your absence. My goal is to offer peace of mind while maintaining your pet’s routine and comfort. My schedule is currently very flexible! I’m available weekends and weekdays for your last minute needs, and I have no problem with updating you on your pets while you’re away! I don’t have a fenced yard at the moment but I have 50 foot leads that my 2 sweet dogs love! I can easily crate your dog if needed, and following your dogs training and routines is important to me

“Diem was GREAT checking in on our dog and taking her for walks. She is extremely respectful of our home, communicated well, sent sweet notes and pictures on the app, and our dog loved her. Will book again!”

About: Hi, I’m Ellie! Growing up in North Carolina gave me a lifelong love for animals, and I’ve spent almost 10 years caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful pups to seniors needing extra care. What sets me apart is my focus on peace of mind and clear communication. I love walking, running, playing, cuddling and making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m also inclusive and compassionate, non-ableist, and always respectful of boundaries. For me, treating both pets and people with kindness is what makes this work so rewarding. I CAN ONLY DO HOUSE SITTING SERVICES FROM 6AM-6PM. IF NEEDED LATER/EARLIER I MUST STAY OVERNIGHT! My eyesight is bad and I cannot drive in the dark. Caring for animals has always been a central comfort in my life. Working with pets brings me joy, structure, and a sense of purpose, which is why I’ve chosen to pursue pet care full-time through Rover. • My schedule is very flexible! Allowing me to be available for walks, drop-ins, or extended care as needed if discussed! • As an autistic adult, I value clear communication and comfort in my routine, and I do my best to create the same sense of calm and consistency for the pets I care for. I want to be fully transparent: while very rare, there may be times I need to cancel a booking due to personal mental health needs or if a situation feels unsafe. In those cases, Rover's cancellation policy will ensure you're refunded appropriately. Furthermore I’m working to build strong, lasting friendships your fur-babies and you! I truly appreciate your patience and understanding as my client, thank you for considering hiring me despite my struggles. I bring compassion, reliability, and a deep love for animals fit for every client. If you’re looking for someone kind, attentive, and flexible I’d love the chance to work with you and your pups! How I help being the best care to my clients is by build trust, boundaries, strong communication, and familiarity with each person/pet when accepting new clients into my books! I'm always excited to work through challenges, try new things, and learn new things.

About: About Me Hello! I’m a passionate, responsible dog owner with over a decade of experience caring for pups of all ages. I currently have a 5-year-old dog named Cholo, and I frequently pet-sit for friends—handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins. Schedule & Travel Notice I work as a school photographer, which means late summer and fall bring a very dynamic schedule with variable hours and regional travel. Since my off days and travel shifts change weekly on both weekdays and weekends, I update my availability on the app every week to reflect which days I am open for drop-ins, walks, and feedings. I currently work as a seasonal photographer for a school Photography company. At this time, my schedule isn’t concrete. Some weeks are busier than others and some weeks I have to travel. I usually become more available after November and mid December. I’ll update my availability every week as my schedule comes out every Friday night after 9 PM. I’ll make sure your pet is taken out on a nice walk if needed. I will also make sure your dog get a chance to go outside to make sure he can do his business and then maybe play around with him/her for a bit after I’ll double check that he has plenty of food and water. If not, I’ll make sure to fill it up again and before leaving your home, I’ll make sure the door is locked and every gate is closed to secure your dog doesn’t try and get out of your home.

“Very nice, and prompt! Dogs were well taken care of.”

I have done various sorts of petsitting from weeks of overnight stays to just swinging by the house to play with the dogs and take them out/feed them. I am super flexible and will work with your needs! I have many years of babysitting under my belt too, as I am very responsible and will never let you down. I am currently am studying for my boards so I have plenty of flexibility around times, days, etc. so just let me know what you need and I will accommodate! I also volunteer at the animal shelter, so I have a lot of experience with different kind of dogs. Your pups will be loved, cared for and pampered when I watch them. I am reliable and just have a genuine love for animals, especially dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your animals :) I currently am studying for my exam in October so I am home most of the day and have plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the week and weekends. My two dogs listed on my profile don’t live with me (they live with my parents), so I have no pets at home. I love to spend time with all pups and it’s very important to me that your dogs get the care that you would get from yourselves! I treat all dogs as my own and love to spoil them.

About: Not only am I a mother of three beautiful boys and one spunky girl, but I am also a loving mother to an amazing dog and cat. I've owned animals since I can even remember, and when they are in my care, I believe it's the best. Why? Because they get all of the interaction they need from playing ball to relaxing and being pet. I hope that you choose me to care for your important babies because that's what they are, important! Everyone deserves to be taken care of and loved the right way. I hope to see you soon and to be able to help with your pups and give the care that will be needed. Hello, I am currently working full time, however, I am working towards making this my full time job. Book me so I can be home full time! I care for pets by making sure they don't get into things they aren't supposed to. I let the dogs eat and run as much as they want. Then we rest for a little while.

About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved being around them. I currently work as a kennel lead for a doggie daycare and boarding facility. I work with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments everyday. I have experience with feeding, exercise, playtime, and cleaning routines. I also have experience administering basic medications. I’m confident in reading dog behavior and making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Wether it’s a high energy pup, or a senior dog who just wants company, I tailor my care to fit their needs. While my work schedule can vary week to week, I’m used to managing my time and planning ahead. I take my commitments seriously, and will only accept booking I can give my full attention to. When caring for pets in their home, I prioritize their comfort and routine, while being respectful of the space. I follow all instructions closely to make things feel familiar for your pet. I always aim to create calm, safe environment, and build trust through gentle consistent care.

“Have used Chelsea many times now and she always goes above and beyond. Love her and the care she take of my Honey. First choice when it comes to rebooking!”

About: Are you planning a trip? I would be delighted to care for your beloved pet during your absence. I offer boarding services for animals at my residence and can also provide check in and walks at your home. Recognizing that some animals, particularly cats, may be more at ease in their familiar environment, I am accommodating to such preferences. In addition to my boarding services, I am a Registered Veterinary Technician employed part-time in Charlotte. My professional experience includes working with animals of various sizes, behaviors, and ages, including senior animals. Having rescued a senior bulldog myself, I have a special fondness for caring for elderly animals. I understand the importance of maintaining a stable routine for pets, especially indoor outdoor cats. While I have two cats of my own, they are accustomed to the presence of other animals. I strive to minimize disruptions to their lives and ensure a smooth integration with visiting pets. My approach is characterized by patience, particularly with timid dogs, and I find that animals tend to quickly warm up to me. To ensure a harmless experience for both your pet and myself, I propose a preliminary meet and greet session. This allows us to access compatibility and ensures your pet's comfort in my home or yours. For animals under my care, they typically enjoy free roam of my house and access to the enclosed backyard. I maintain a secure and fenced environment to guarantee their safety and well-being. If you have any specific preferences or concerns, I am open to discussing and accommodating them to provide the best possible care for your cherished companion. Looking to get some fun, loving animals in the house. Look forward to hearing from you! 😺🐶 I work part-time as a veterinary technician here in Charlotte and also dedicate part of my spare time caring for animals. Additionally, I am a pet owner myself. My residence is equipped with a fenced yard and a screened in porch connected to the back door, providing a secure area for animals to move freely. Pets staying in my home enjoy the privilege of constant companionship, as I work only part time. I Consistently communicate with owners, providing advance notice if there are periods when I won't be at home and specifying the duration of such instances. Furthermore, I have installed cameras in every room of my house to ensure continuous monitoring and maintain transparency regarding or pets well-being. When providing in-home care, I am flexible in accommodating to minimize destructions to your pet's routine. I am committed to maintaining a permanence and comfortable environment for your pet during my visits. If you have any specific preferences or requirements for your pet's care, please feel free to share them, And I will ensure they are met with the utmost professionalism and care.
