Dog Walkers in Highland, SC

About: With about 18 years of hands on pet care experience, what truly sets me apart is my calm, patient approach and deep understanding of animal behavior. Whether it’s a shy rescue who needs gentle encouragement or a senior cat who needs extra comfort and medication, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs. I have loved and cared for animals since the day I was born. I have 5 dogs, a mini horse, and two rabbits. My goal is always to provide a stress-free, trustworthy experience for both pets and their people. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time during the week to take care of your babies when needed. My schedule is very flexible right now. I prefer not to work on the weekends, but if it is needed, I will make it work. In your home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I take time to learn their habits—feeding schedules, favorite hiding spots, play routines, and any medical needs—so I can provide care that feels familiar and comforting. I make sure litter boxes are clean, water is always fresh, and your pet gets plenty of attention and affection at their own pace. For shy or senior pets, I move slowly and calmly, always respecting their space and personality.

About: Give me all the dogs, please! I grew up with small dogs and eventually began rescuing my own. (2 big, 3 small currently) It took a lot of training to get mine where they are today, but now we enjoy adventuring, having play dates and watching friends all the time. I left my job as a teacher to spend more time with my pups and I’d be happy to discuss caring for your pets too! Due to volume of requests and space in my home, I am only able to accept new drop in requests at this time. *Rates include drive time from Tryon NC! I work from home with a pretty flexible schedule. If I can't accommodate your needs and or dates, I likely know someone who can help! Safety is #1. I often work with foster and rescue dogs and have extensive experience with dog behavior and interactions. My dogs get along with pretty much any dog, but I am very careful with new interactions and will do what is best for the animal in all situations. I also have a very securely fenced in yard for play if appropriate.

About: I have worked in a small animal hospital for 15 years. Did equine vet tech For 5 years before returning to small animal with limited exotic animal medicine. I have experience with cats dogs horses And most rodents and personally own a snake. Limited experience with birds and reptiles. I went to school at SUNY Delhi for vet tech and SUNY cobleskill for horse training. My own dog is hand raised so I am familiar with dog care at all life stages. My cat is adopted and thinks he is a dog! And my horse is geriatric so I understand all of her special needs. Total per count is 3 dogs a cat 2 horses and a snake. I can give medications, do first aid treatment, and assist with basic medical procedures. No such thing as too needy of an animal! I like fur babies more than I like people most days :) I work as a vet tech at an animal hospital so am primarily available for walk after 6 pm during most week days, and am available all day Thursday most Saturday’s and Sunday’s I have a fenced in yard but my neighbors dogs do get loose and cause occasional issues so I don’t risk Saftey and don’t offer in home service just in case.I will happily bring your dog on adventures with my dogs if you like! Dog parks and hiking!

About: I started working with animals 8 years ago as a volunteer at a rescue barn. I've volunteered with about 3 other rescues and shelters, from walking dogs to monitoring health conditions. I just want to show all those little furry family members the love they deserve, and make sure they can be well taken care of if you are unable or temporarily absent. I currently only work 7-2 on weekends. Otherwise, I'm wide open and would love to run and play with your pets! We love treats and I'm a quick learner. Your routine, becomes my routine. I prefer to get a play by play of each animal's daily life at home so I can most relate their stay with me in my home to it. From feeding times to walking times and even play times, I love to have a set schedule to make all our lives easier. Of course flexibility is a must, and I'm happy to follow any needs that are seen fit because the animal's well being is top priority.

Please keep me aware of any medications, vitamins, or special attention that your fur baby may need while you’re away. I love living in a quiet country home because of the peace it gives to dogs while on their stay with me. Give your pet the chance to relax on my fenced in porch and enjoy watching the world go by! As a business owner, my schedule is very flexible. Because I’m self employed, I have more time for my dog at home (and yours, too!). I have one small dog at home to keep your pet company!
