Dog Walkers in Hickory Tavern, SC

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience caring for all kinds of animals — from goats and pigs to dogs and cats! I’ve been around animals since I was a kid, so I understand their different personalities and needs. I’m patient, gentle, and always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience with puppies, seniors, and pets that need a little extra attention or care. Whether it’s sticking to a routine, giving medication, or helping with basic training, I make sure your pet gets the same love and consistency they’re used to at home. I’m currently a stay at home mom to a 4 year old so I am available at any time of the day and any day or the week! When caring for pets, my main focus is making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable — whether they’re in my home or yours. I always take time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences so I can keep things as familiar as possible. In your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions carefully — from feeding schedules to walks and playtime. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with updates and photos to keep you at ease. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with lots of love, snuggles, and supervision. I treat every animal like part of the family and make sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for at all times.

“Sarah is an excellent communicator and is great with our puppy. She is trustworthy, on time, and takes the time to play our puppy. She gave details about how each walk went and sent pictures too! Sarah is fantastic and highly recommended.”

About: I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule who loves dogs and making some extra tuition money! My husband works from home so your pet will have someone around most of the time. I would love to help you with your sitting needs anyway that I can! I am familiar with the basics of training, bathing, feeding, walking, etc… I’ve trained and raised 4 beautiful labs so far. I look forward to meeting you soon!😊 My schedule is usually pretty flexible but every week does look different for me. I’m happy to work around your needs and make time in my schedule for you. I love to send pictures of the pets when I arrive at the location. It ensures to you that I have arrived and am doing what you have requested! I’m open to texting while I work so if you need anything additional, like a package brought inside or I have a quick question, that will help to make everything run smoothly.

About: Tucked away in a secluded area of Gray Court, SC, our generously 1acre fenced-in yard provides a tranquil ambiance for weekend play and fun. As a passionate animal care advocate with a robust background in boarding, I tap into 12+ years of boarding and doggy day care services. I am available for both overnight boarding and doggy daycare throughout the day. It is vital that your pet is dog and cat-friendly, as they will interact with other friendly pets in my home. Additionally, we necessitate proof of spaying/neutering, current vaccinations, fecal exam, and flea prevention to maintain a safe and clean environment for all pets. If you need a weekend away or just a place during the day your pet can play with other furry friends and have a day of activity and fun in a safe environment I am only a message away 😄🐶 I am available 7 days a week for pet care services. All dogs and cats need to be socialized and able to play in a supervised group setting. Up to date on vaccines and a recent fecal sample to guarantee no parasites. All pets must be spayed or neutered prior to daycare. A pet profile sheet will be provided first so that I can know the basic needs of your pet and care. I have a one acre fenced in yard, allowing a day of play and fun. A kiddie pool to cool down during the summer heat and a soft couch for when your pup is spent from the exciting day of activity and fun!

“Leah is a wonderful walker, and friend to our little Tucker. She communicates well, giving plenty of updates and sends the most adorable pictures. There has never been a photo of Tucker not smiling when he is playing with Leah. We’ll definitely hire Leah again, and would recommend her for your pet sitting needs :)”

About: I’ve worked with animals all throughout my childhood up to now. I own 2 dogs right now, a chocolate lab and a yorkie, both rescued. I am currently not employed, but I am searching for something I can do that involves animals. I figured this would be a good opportunity since I would be able to do it in the afternoons after school until I graduate in May. After I graduate, I want to go into Vet Assistant or Vet Tech so this would be an amazing experience for my future. I currently own 2 dogs that I constantly care for at my home. I help feed them, walk them, play with them, and bathe them.

“Anna is super sweet and Neville loved her instantly. She's definitely the best rover in Clemson. Couldn't recommend more.”

Katalina Marie O.

About: In this house, pets are treated like family members. They get all the love, attention, and snuggles (of course) that they deserve. Experience includes puppy and senior care. Over the summer months, I’m not working allowing for open flexibility to tend to pet needs. During school months, I work from home with ample breaks and opportunities for frequent walks and attention. Dogs are always walked on leashes. There are plenty of grassy areas within my complex for walking with a dog park included. I provide particular and full attention to the pets needs and meet the desires established by the owner. I go over and beyond in showering love/attention and ensuring safety.

I have a fenced yard for my pets and I will visit, play with & walk your pets. Animals love me & I am able to handle all size pets! I also may be trusted to administer necessary medications.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I could walk! During my entire childhood our home was always filled with dogs - after all, a house is not a home without a dog :) I love all kinds of dogs - from little to big, dogs who like to lounge and dogs who like to run around all the time. I enjoy snuggling dogs and giving ear scratches, but also throwing a ball or going for a long walk. I am an elementary teacher on summer break, so I am available almost any time or any day during the summer! The only time I have blocked out is 8:30-11:30am on Sundays. I have a large fenced in yard. My dog stays inside most of the time, unless I am home. He has free range of the house while I am gone.

I currently work full time so the majority of my time would be dedicated to your pet on the weekends and my off day.

Your pets safety, health and well being are just as important as any of mine and will be treated as such.

Growing up on a farm and working hands on with animals throughout college has helped me become patient, attentive, and confident around animals of all sizes. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I currently work full-time as a veterinary assistant. I have spent years caring for animals both personally and professionally.

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of attention and exercise. I make sure they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I also pay close attention to behavior changes and overall wellness since I have experience working as a veterinary assistant. I’m comfortable administering oral medications if needed and caring for pets with different energy levels and personalities.
