Dog Walking Jefferson

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover based on a 10-acre homestead in Pageland, SC. I specialize in structured, safe boarding with supervised outdoor time and secure indoor accommodations. We have a brand-new 6-foot wooden privacy fence enclosing our backyard, providing a secure area for dogs to exercise, stretch, and explore during supervised potty breaks and play sessions. Guests stay in our large climate-controlled sunroom outfitted with seven kennels, giving each dog their own secure space to rest comfortably between outdoor time, meals, and enrichment. Crate rotation and routine breaks are built into our daily schedule, ensuring dogs have consistency and predictability. Crate & House Access Policy • Crating is standard when we are away or sleeping, and during rest periods. • Potty breaks are offered approximately every 2 hours during waking hours. • For older, calm, fully house-trained, non-destructive, and cat-friendly dogs, free-roam house access may be considered on a case-by-case basis with owner request and compatibility assessment. • Dogs with separation anxiety, destructive tendencies, or unsafe habits (counter-surfing, door-bolting, etc.) will remain on our structured crate schedule for their safety. Experience & Approach I’ve owned and cared for everything from hedgehogs and geckos to chickens, horses, and working-breed dogs. I’m comfortable with: • Medication administration (oral or topical) • Senior dogs • Puppies & house-training stages • Reactive or shy personalities • High-energy dogs who require clear routines • Multi-dog coexistence and safe rotations My husband runs his own business and is home most of the time, ensuring someone is almost always present for supervision, potty break intervals, and routine care. I am home evenings and weekends, and we work together to provide structure, security, and consistent monitoring. What You Can Expect • Individual crate spaces (no shared kennels) • 6-ft fully fenced private yard • Consistent potty break schedule (≈ every 2 hours) • Supervised outdoor time only • Optional house freedom only if fully compatible • Daily updates, photos, and communication We focus on safe, predictable, and tailored care based on each dog’s needs and the comfort level of their owner. Whether a pup thrives with structured crate rest or enjoys calm, supervised sunroom naps, we tailor stays responsibly rather than one-size-fits-all. I work full-time as an insurance producer in Monroe, NC from 8–5, Monday through Friday. I’m home all day on weekends, and during the week, my husband is at our homestead full-time and helps provide care and supervision. Since we work as a team, your pets will never be left alone for long periods. I’m also available for morning or evening drop-ins and walks depending on location and schedule! We live on a peaceful 10-acre homestead. We do not allow free play with other pets - so you know that your furry friend is safe and sound the entire stay! They will have supervised playtime with other pups from the same household, or with just our staff! Our top priority is a safe stay.

“Very responsive and great service. Highly recommend Ida!”

About: My family owned dogs and cats all my life. Once I got old enough to take on responsibility, I started feeding, bathing, walking, and cleaning up after my pets. I love pets of all kind and I've owned dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, and guinea pigs. I currently have 8 dogs of my own which are 7 American bullies and one Boston Terrier (Abel, Nyx, Hella, Cash, Holly, Buckshot, Zarah, and Maddie) a gecko named Leroy, and a baby quaker parrot, named Sully. I am very familiar and comfortable with all size of dogs as I have owned so many different breeds over the years. From Great danes to small dogs. I love spending time with my pets as well as getting to know and spend time with others. I understand the importance of doing what is asked by the owner of the pets! If you want someone that is a huge animal lover and who is reliable and trustworthy, look no further! I can't wait to hear from you and meet your fur baby !! I currently work full time, my days off vary and change a lot due to be being in management. I am normally available early in the day. If we have already pre booked something, and my work schedule changes, I will still make accommodations to make sure your baby is taken care of! While caring for your pet inside your home, I will do exactly what you ask of me and treat your fur baby and your property with respect. I will love and care for your baby as if they were my own and make sure the house is left in the same condition it was in before I arrived.

About: I've been around dogs and cats my entire life. I also have experience taking care of freshwater aquariums, turtles, snakes, and birds. I love animals and am open to whatever your needs are. Currently, we have an 8 year old spayed lab, and two dog friendly cats. I have the ability to seperate sections of the house if your dog or cat is not cat/dog friendly. I have 18 acres to take dogs on walks, as well as a fenced in back yard with a pool for play time and summer swims. I don't mind providing baths to dogs that may need them and I also have experience bathing cats as long as they are generally tolerant to the process. I am a master's student so I am always home and won't leave your pet alone for hours at a time. My little zoo and I would love to meet you! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any special requests, questions, or concerns.

“My fur baby loves walking with him weekly.”

About: What sets me apart is the level of attention, patience, and personalized care I provide to every pet. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care — I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and specific needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience working with young pets who are still learning routines and basic training. I reinforce positive behaviors, maintain consistency with house rules, and help build good habits through patience and positive reinforcement. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets and understand they often need a slower pace, medication management, mobility support, and extra monitoring. I pay close attention to subtle changes in behavior or appetite and communicate promptly if anything seems off. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own — with kindness, structure, and genuine care — while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. Morning (10–30 minutes) Feed and refresh water Quick health check (energy level, appetite, bathroom habits) Walk or play session (especially for dogs) Midday (if applicable) Short walk or litter box check Brief playtime or enrichment (toys, puzzles) Evening (20–60 minutes) Dinner feeding Longer walk or active play Grooming touch-up (brushing, wiping paws, cleaning bowls) Litter box cleaning (cats) or cage cleaning spot-check (small pets) When pets stay in my home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and structured environment. Daily Care Includes: Feeding according to the owner’s instructions (diet, portions, schedule) Fresh water available at all times Regular potty breaks or litter box maintenance Daily exercise (walks, yard time, or supervised play) Enrichment activities (toys, puzzles, affection, basic training reinforcement) Safety & Comfort: Pet-proofed space Supervised interactions with other pets (if applicable) Separate feeding areas if needed Clean bedding and sanitized bowls Medication administration if required (following written instructions) Communication: Daily updates with photos/videos Immediate communication if any concerns arise

About: I have been raised alongside animals all my life. I've had dogs for as long as I remember ranging from pitbulls to great danes, and from chihuahuas to jack russells. I'm actually attending school to become a veternarian due to my unwavering attention of animals of all kinds. Pet care is a natural part of our daily family life. As a parent and a pet owner myself, our home is always filled with love and structure. We specialize in boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits, so your pup will instantly become a part of our routine. We don't have a fenced yard, but we do have a massive open field perfect for leashed exploration, long-line fetch, and active outdoor time! Whether socializing with my dog, playing with my child, or running in the field, your pup will be safe, happy, and loved. Pet care is a natural part of our daily family life. As a working parent who is also in school, our home operates on a reliable, structured routine built around my baby's schedule and my daily commitments. My school schedule is about to become much busier, I am highly focused on managing my time effectively. Please note that I may not always be able to respond to text messages immediately while I am in class or focused on work, but I will always check in and provide updates as soon as I am free! Because our days are busy, your pup will get a highly active experience—on days when I am completely washed with school or work activities, I often bring my guest pets along with me so they get extra socialization, stimulation, and real-world fun! My Care Standards: Boarding & Daycare (In My Home): Guest pets enjoy supervised playtime with my dog, kid-friendly interactions, and leashed outdoor exercise in our large open field. All guest dogs must be friendly with children and other pets. House Sitting (In Your Home): My house sitting service is primarily an overnight stay focused on evening companionship and morning routines, supplemented by a reliable midday check-in rather than constant 24/7 care. Drop-In Visits: I provide reliable, structured check-in blocks tailored around my daily routine to ensure consistent potty breaks, meals, and companionship in your pet's own home.I prioritize clear communication, strict safety, and a predictable routine for every pet in my care!

About: I love all animals and have always had a passion to work with animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, birds, you name it! I treat everyone's fur babies how I'd expect people to treat my mine. I use to do anesthesia-free dog teeth cleaning, so I am very comfortable with all sizes and types of dogs. I'm a good pick for your pets because I have a passion for animals and go up and beyond what's expected. I will always send you pictures of your sweet little babies while you are away on your trip. Let me take good care of your babies and give them someone who cares, wants to play and keep their mind of their owners while they are gone. Thanks for considering me :-) I am home most of the day every day so your fur baby will never be alone for too long at a time. I'm pretty flexible with times for drop ins as well. I have fenced yard that my dog loves to play in (more so, when he gets to have a buddy over) haha. Inside, dogs have full range inside the house and I let them on furniture. (If you are strict with your dog with getting on furniture, I will make sure he has the same set of rules at my place).

When taking care of your dog/cat, I offer any service the animal needs which including: using the bathroom, crating them, giving them food or water, and keeps me them entertained and happy.

About: My family has 3 dogs and over 10 wild/ tame cats that I used to be responsible for for over 5 years. It was my job to feed them and look after their areas I am currently a full-time student at Wingate University but I have a flexible afternoon schedule. Weekends are usually always open! I leave campus for breaks I live in a dorm so I do not offer services in my home but I am more than happy to care for your pets from the safety of your home :)

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I truly love animals and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for and play with your pups. Can't wait to become your pet's bestfriend!!!! I’m comfortable going to your home to care for your pet. I always make sure your furry friend feels safe and loved in their own space.

About: I have had animals in my life since I was a little girl. I am self employed and work from home, which blesses me with the freedom and flexibility to give both time and attention to your beloved. Between my husband and I there is almost always someone home to love and care for your furbabies. We know that your furbaby is more than a pet; that they are family. Know they will be well cared for and loved just like they are our very own. I've owned several animals from dogs, cats, chickens, pythons, gators, fish, birds...etc When I say I love animals, I love all animals. I've cared for and owned many dog breeds since I was a child from Mutts, Beagles, Labs, and a Chihuahua (who was trained like a lab). I've watched, and cared for other people's furry family members many times as well. I have also cared for special need pups such as high anxiety, trauma, stressed shelter pups, gave medication, and watched over elderly dogs. It's NO challenge to do what needs to be done to make sure ALL your loved ones great, small, and of different backgrounds, and personalities feel safe, secure, and loved. Since our beloved little dog passed we have chosen to not own any more but have plenty of love and attention to give to yours! We don't ever watch pups from different families unless owners tell us it's ok otherwise. So unless you say it's ok, rest assured that your pups will be the only one's in our care. Thank you for entrusting us with your beloved family member! We are both excited and honored to be able to give your sweet one's a mini vacation of their own while you're away. My husband and I are self employed and spend most of our time at home. While you're loved one is in our care, they will be our main focus and have all of our attention. We have a ton of space to be able to take great walks. Unfortunately it's not fenced so your pup will need to be leashed unless trained to not need one and personally told to not use one. We do our best to acclimate ourselves to each furbaby's personality. Some are super active so we make sure they get tons of playtime. If they are snugglers, they get lots of snuggles. If they like to just relax, then that's what we'll do. We just want any that are in our care to feel right at home.
