“We’re so thankful Julie has been able to come out for a couple extra walks this week as we’ve transitioned to life with a newborn. Julie is a lifesaver! We’re so thankful.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have had them my whole life. I’ve cared for family and friends’ pets while they were away, handling everything from walks and playtime to feeding and snuggles. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I treat every pup like they’re my own. I’m currently only working part time, so I have times during the week and weekends to provide the services you need for your fur babies! When caring for pets in your home, I aim to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, walk schedules, or playtime. I make sure your pet gets plenty of love and attention while also respecting your home and keeping it clean and tidy. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Ive cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for years, including my own mini Labradoodle. I am confident with puppies, high energy dogs and shy pups who need gentle love. I have hands on experience with daily walks, feeding routines, medication, crate training. I treat every dog like they are my own. I am a junior in college, I will be home for winter break for over a month and want a side hustle! I have open availability throughout the week. I have a Labradoodle Honey who gets lots of attention, affection, and a consistent routine. I make sure she has rest spots, fresh water at all time, and regular walks and outside time. I will send regular updates and photos so you know how ur puppy is doing.

About: Hi friends! I am an energetic person who LOVES the outdoors and basically any kind of animal. I am blessed enough to be able to work for my husband for his concrete business so I am home (mostly) all day every day! I have 3 dogs myself; a Border Collie, GSP, and a mixed breed (half Great Pyrenees, half Australian Shepherd). They are my babies. I live on 19 acres that is all fenced but 18 of those acres are occupied for our 13 goats and 3 llamas! No worries though, we have a huge fenced in area directly beside/where our house sits just for dogs! We also have a doggie door from inside, leading to the outdoor area, so your dog will definitely get the exercise and outdoor time they deserve, as well as coming and going as they please! :) I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! Monday-Thursday with some weekends! We travel a lot over the weekends in the summer so weekends are limited but I will keep my weekend schedule updated We have a doggie door leading to the fenced in area for our dogs so they are able to come and go as they please. If you aren’t comfortable with the doggie door, I will make sure your pet does not use it and I will take them out for breaks frequently!

“Megan was so caring for my pups! She kept in touch with updates and pictures, and made sure they got exercise and extra love in my absence. I definitely plan to use her in the future!”

About: I have been caring for animal for around 10 years. I have dog, cat and house sat for many folks during that time. I love bringing peace of mind knowing your furry friends are safe and comfortable! I work part-time and have lots of flexibility to walk or play with your dog! I am open to discussing your needs and a schedule that works for both of us. I have three indoor cats. They’re great with dogs, and I am able to take dogs on walks around the greenway! It is my preference to come to you!

“Laurie has been super reliable and has taken great care of my dog. She comes to walk him twice a week and he is always is good spirits when I get home. I highly recommend Laurie!”

About: I am a teacher in Asheville looking to hang out with some lovely animals in my free time. Growing up I have always had animals but primarily dogs so I have a strong background in dog behaviors and needs. My fiancé is also available to support during the week days that wouldn’t be optimal for me to leave during my teaching days. This gives a lot more availability! She has always grown up with cats and dogs and would love to help support to give them the best care. I look forward to care for your animal in anyway I can. Please let me know of any questions as I hope to be flexible with any needs. During the week I am gone roughly 8am-4pm but will be home during the weekend times. During the summer months I am available throughout the day times. My fiancé is a nurse and works 3 days out of the week. The schedule is flexible but sporadic. I love to get out for long walks and get as much movement as possible. If that’s for your animal I’d love to get them out! If not I am cautious about the animals typical areas and what works best for them.

“Brandy is awesome and so reliable! We’ve used her a bunch of times to come by and walk our Australian cattle dog. Our dog is very high energy, is not good with other dogs and is a big leash puller and none of those things have been an issue for Brandy. She always makes sure to give him exercise as well! I can trust that my dog will have a great time with Brandy while I’m gone and get all of his needs met!”

About: Hello! My name is Rachel. I am an experienced animal whisperer, animal lover and pet caregiver. Entrusted for over 15 years with all breeds, sizes, multiples. For one time, daily visits, extended over nights stays, with responsibilities of: lengthy walks, picking up after/litter box, timely feeding and water. Loving attention, socializing, exercising, play and upon request: light grooming, administering medicine, canine acupressure massage, harmony for family/pet dynamics, and behavioral assistance. I will always communicate with you to ensure all of your pet and home need's are honored. I am glad to provide positive reassurance with photo updates while your animals are in my care. I am reliable, responsible, attentive, and loving; happy to be there for your pets. I have a flexible schedule and wonderful references. I am happy to listen to your needs and answer any questions. I look forward to caring for your animals! I have a flexible schedule and share most of my free time in nature. I am happy to bring dogs for long walks. I also meditate and cherish down-time, so animals like my company at home. Snuggles, baths, swimming, long walks, playing in a fenced in yard, laying in the grass with them, reading a book and sitting together, singing or talking with them, cuddles at bedtime. I have flexible remote part time work, which gives plenty of time to be with your pets. I have space in the evenings, mid day, and mornings for feeding, walking and play. I am open for longer term overnight stays with animals in their home- minimum 5 nights. The home needs to be free of heavy fragrances and mold. When able, I prefer boarding animals in my home. When I board, there are no other animals in the house. However, my land lord has a dog and they are on the land or near the house at times. Therefore, I am not able to board dogs who are reactive to other dogs.

“Kara was flexible and understanding when I needed to change the time of our walk because of the heat. (My dog doesn’t handle heat well.) Then, she was understanding when thunder frightened my dog, and my dog refused to continue the walk.”

About: Growing up, my mom worked at a vet's office and I was there every day after school, so I have been exposed to pets my entire life. Because of this, I am very knowledgable about caring for dogs of all breeds as well as training them, and am really good with all animals. I currently own a very loving golden doodle who weighs right under 50 pounds. He loves other dogs and we go to the dog park across from my neighborhood every day, so he will be great with your dog! If you dog does not like other animals, I can put mine up as well, just let me know! I am a lover of all dogs and cannot wait to meet your fur babies! I currently work remotely so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet during the week or on the weekends. Just let me know what you need! I have a large fenced in yard at my house as well as a dog park across the street. I love to go for long walks with dogs as well.

About: I've been caring for dogs and horses since I was 10 years old (over 20 years). They are such an important part of my life. I am hoping to help with the care of your furry loved one, as I understand that they are as much a part of your family as any human. I have cared for all ages and health levels in canines, and have a special soft spot for senior pups! I can walk, clean up after, feed, bathe, play, snuggle, reenforce potty training, and administer medications...and have experience doing all. If I am taking your baby for a walk, please feel free to give recommendations about their favorite walking paths or dog parks. I can accommodate allergies too, with your guidance (tell me which treats they love/can eat safely, etc). I am currently between jobs and have all the flexibility and free time in the world. I am happy to take care of your loved one any time of day. I currently do not offer my personal home for boarding but I am perfectly willing to stay in your home with your loved one. I am hoping to offer boarding in the future.

About: NOW BOOKING for SPRING & SUMMER! 🧡🐠 I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats since I was a teenager, all with unique personalities and quirks! From a blind senior dog to a full colony of cats I’ll show your animals the compassion and kindness they expect. Booking with me earns you not just a great pet sitter but I’m a neighbor you can count on, and you can never have too many of those in Asheville :) I am available weekdays and weekends to play and care for your furry friends! When I’m not caring for yours, I’m writing poetry with a cat on my lap or hiking with my dog. There’s no place like home, that’s why I can come to yours and maintain your pets comfort. I have experience with pets who have separation anxiety, allergies, and I can provide quality support for your fur babies.
