Dog Walking Little River

About: Hi! So a little about me I’m a medical esthetician and have been helping people care for their skin for the past three years. On my day off each Wednesday, I enjoy spending time caring for animals. I’ve had pets my entire life and have experience with a wide variety of animals, ranging from ferrets and horses to dogs and cats. Being around animals has always been a big part of my life, and I’m comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, personalities, and needs. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. When I’m in my home I have a fenced in yard and they love to play ball outside and relax in the screened in porch. When I’m in a clients home, I follow every direction that’s asked of me and make sure the pups are comfortable when I’m in the home! I take lots of photos to make sure the client feels as though they haven’t missed a day of not being in their home. Wednesdays work best with my schedule because it’s my regular day off from work, allowing me to dedicate my full attention and time to caring for your pets. This flexibility lets me provide reliable care without the time constraints of my normal workdays. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and lots of love while ensuring their environment stays safe and clean.

About: I have over 30 years experience taking care of dogs and will provide the love and care they need in their new "home away from home". I have a whole house generator so in case of storms, there will be no interruption in service. I am a very active individual and typically walk at least 3-5 miles per day with my little toy fox terrier. I am a nature lover and frequent the area's hiking trails and love to get out on the beach. I prepare my dog's meals using all natural ingredients (whole foods) and make a very healthy bone broth and organic barley. With parental permission I can use this as topper for your dog's kibble. I am a retired school teacher and am available year round. I am basically home all the time when I am not out on the nature trails. I would prefer sitting for dogs that weigh 30 pounds or less. Your fur baby will receive the love and attention it deserves from Caring Karen. I am a retired school teacher and when I am not out on the nature trails walking dogs, I am at home cooking or gardening. Your dog will receive lots of love and attention from Caring Karen. I have a fenced-in side yard and a gated back deck. My house is set back on a wooded lot with lots of shade. I live in a very quiet and safe neighborhood on a private road that is a dead-end. I know most of my neighbors and this is my forever home.

About: My husband and I have had pets all our lives and absolutely love all animals! We are also experienced in giving meds of any kind, or making sure your pet is taken care of properly such as no treats, lotts of treats or whatever you may need! I own my own business so I am flexible, and able to work with yours to care for your pet! However I may be out of the house sometimes and would prefer your pet to be crate trained. I have a fenced in yard and two golden retriever pups to play with your fur baby! I can easily crate your pet if needed.

About: I have been around different breeds/mixed dogs and cats for most of my life. I always have enjoyed their unconditional love and companionship. I had the experience of assisting in the birth of our Chihuahua giving birth to 6 pups. At one point we had 5 dogs and a cat from breeds from a Italian Cane Corso to Chihuahua's. They have given me so much love and affection over the years. Not to mention caring for them in the end which is the most difficult. I'm currently retired and having recently relocated to the area. I would be a great fit to care for your pet while you are at work or away on vacation. My schedule is flexible and ready to be a pet giver to your fur baby. I will give them the upmost attention for all of their needs.

About: I’ve owned dogs ever since I was 2 years old, having 3 total in my lifetime. Neighbors have relied on me to take care of their pets while away, including walking, feeding, and playing with their beloved pups. I will have plenty time to care for your pup, Im currently working a part time job and receive my schedule on a weekly basis! I will ensure your pet has everything he/she needs depending on why I am there. Long walks (or short if needed), food, water, treats and someone to play tug a war with! I understand some dogs are shy (mine included), so taking it slow and easy is the best way.

“My dog loves Marie. He looks forward to her visits and is always happy to see her. We trust her to take excellent care of our dog too. It is so nice to know he is in good hands when we are away. She loves dogs and they know it!”

About: Experienced, compassionate pet care based in Sunset Beach. With nearly a decade of hands-on experience, I have cared for a wide range of animals including dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, small mammals (hamsters, guinea pigs, etc), and even farm animals. No pet is too big or too small—I genuinely love them all! I bring nearly a decade of hands-on pet care experience and currently work as a veterinary technician. I am experienced working with dogs of all sizes—from tiny puppies to 100+ lb adults and seniors—and I am comfortable administering medications and caring for pets with special medical needs. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are being treated with the same love and attention I give my own. What You Can Expect: - A knowledgeable, trustworthy sitter with veterinary experience - Personalized care tailored to your pet’s routine and needs - Dog walks & drop-in visits: photo/video updates, mail and package collection, and plant watering upon request - Pet & house sitting: mail/packages brought in, plants watered, and light household tasks if requested (additional fees may apply), ensuring you return to a happy pet and a well-kept home For the best experience, I prefer a meet-and-greet prior to bookings so I can meet you and your pets and learn their routine. This is required for pets that may be timid with strangers. Availability: I work full-time as a veterinary technician but am available Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with additional midday visits possible within 6–7 miles of my workplace during my lunch break. If you’re looking for experienced, dependable, and professional pet care, I would love to help. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! This is my only job at the moment, so I have a very flexible schedule to help you out with your babies, big or small! *NO AGGRESSIVE ANIMALS* I will not look after any animal who may bite, and/or has bitten in the past. That is for my own safety, as well as keeping the animal out of stressful situations. This is also why I HIGHLY suggest a meeting before the service begins; for the pet(s) to meet me, and see if it will be a good match for everyone involved. I do not have any breed restrictions! All breeds are welcome! (Snakes/reptiles do not count towards this policy; I can take care of snakes/reptiles, knowing the possibility of a bite. I have had 3 snakes of my own, as well as plenty of experience taking care of & handling them when working at pet stores for over 5 years.)

“Alicia and Van have been a godsend!!! They committed to walking my brother's dog every morning for over 3 weeks. He is recovering from a broken hip and it has been difficult for him to walk his dog properly. We found Van and Alicia and couldn't have been happier. They truly enjoy what they do and have helped my brother is other ways too - assisting with feeding Zandi. I can't say enough wonderful things about them. The one thing i will say - is your fur-baby is in the best of hands with them and they would be lucky to have them care for them!!!!”
