“Daniel has been wonderful for Hobie! He goes above and beyond and has been a bright spot during a stressful relocation. I was nervous about bringing my sometimes anxious dog to a new place but Daniel has made it so that Hobie is now living his best life and has a new bestie!!! Highly recommend!”


“Dace is the best. Ruby Rey is always so happy to see her. It shows on the photos she sends during every visit, however short. Dace is truly the best pet and house sitter we've ever had!”


“Rachel is outstanding. She takes such excellent care of our senior gal, Harley. When Harley cuts her walks short due to her arthritis pain, Rachel spends extra time cuddling with her on the floor and showering her with lots of love. Best dog walker around!”


About: 7 years of loving your pets. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — not just as pets, but as companions, teachers, and joy-bringers. I’ve always felt most at peace when I’m surrounded by animals and nature. Whether I’m hiking a quiet trail with a furry friend by my side, playing fetch in an open field, or simply relaxing on a porch after a long day outdoors, I find happiness in the simple, grounded connection that dogs and the natural world provide. I value patience, kindness, and structure — all qualities that guide the way I care for animals. For me, caring for dogs isn't just a job — it’s who I am at my core. I am a dedicated and compassionate animal care professional with hands-on experience in canine enrichment, behavioral observation, and facility operations. At Woof Pack Pet Services in Boone, NC, I served as an Enrichment Counselor, Kennel Attendant, and New Hire Trainer, where I led tailored group enrichment sessions to promote dogs' mental well-being, trained new staff in safe and effective animal handling protocols, and developed individualized care plans for dogs with medical or behavioral needs. I also administered medications, monitored health changes, and maintained strong communication with both clients and veterinary professionals to ensure timely care. At Mills River Dog Camp in Mills River, NC, I expanded my leadership skills as a Shift Supervisor, managing the daily care of over 50 dogs, supervising staff, and implementing training and de-escalation strategies for anxious or reactive dogs. I’m experienced in maintaining detailed health and behavior records and have consistently prioritized both animal welfare and client satisfaction through attentive care, structured routines, and open communication. When you trust me with your pet, you're not just getting someone who knows how to follow instructions — you're getting someone who genuinely cares. I have extensive hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including those with medical needs, behavioral challenges, or a little extra anxiety. I treat every animal with the same level of attentiveness, patience, and love that I would want for my own. I believe in clear communication, both with animals and their people, and I always aim to provide peace of mind through consistent care, safety, and respect. Whether your pet needs a playful buddy, a calm presence, or a structured routine, I’m here to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is an integral part of my life and a true passion. Daily, I dedicate time to understanding and meeting each animal’s unique needs—whether it’s through enrichment activities, administering medications, or simply providing companionship and comfort. Over the years, I’ve developed routines that prioritize the physical and emotional well-being of pets in my care, balancing structured schedules with flexibility to respond to individual behaviors and health changes. Weekly, I continuously update my knowledge on animal behavior and care techniques to ensure the highest quality of service. I am now seeking to turn this dedication into a full-time career where I can combine my hands-on experience, love for animals, and commitment to their welfare to make a meaningful difference every day. I tailor my pet care approach based on the environment and individual needs of each animal. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and engaging space with plenty of enrichment activities, consistent routines, and close monitoring of health and behavior to ensure pets feel comfortable and loved. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their established routines, preferences, and any specific care instructions. I focus on maintaining consistency to reduce stress, providing companionship, administering medications if needed, and keeping the environment clean and secure. Communication with the pet owner is key to ensuring their pet’s needs are met and any concerns are promptly addressed. My priority is always the well-being and happiness of the pet, adapting my care style to create a positive, trusting experience whether at home or theirs.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for the last 20 years. Not only mine but also friends and family members. I’ve also dog sat for various people throughout the years. I currently drive for uber so my schedule is completely flexible. Looking for something else to get me out of the house and what better way than giving your pet the attention and care it needs. I have two friendly dogs who are always looking to add another buddy. We go on multiple walks a day as well as going to the dog park multiple times a week.

“Great walker!!!! Very thorough, punctual and respectful. He takes good care of our dog and respects our other pets, house, neighborhood. He's easy to work with if schedules change. We are very happy to have him taking care of our dog.”


“Ceshele was great! She really helped me out. I was visiting from out of town and she walked my dog for me so. I was so relieved to find her and I was able to enjoy my day knowing my dog was in good hands.”


About: I have raised my sweet cat Sneaky since she was a kitten, as well as my dog Mabel since she was a puppy. I have had Sneaky for 7 years, and Mabel for 5. They are my life! I also have some grooming experience, so I am familiar with animals in a professional setting as well. I currently work for Instacart and attend NC State University. I'll be able to take care of your pets any time I'm not in school! I will care for your pets to your exact specifications and keep them great company! I am available for walks, drop ins, and some house sitting!

“Rylee was excellent with my 2 big dogs. They can be a handful, but she had no problems. Even when it was raining out, she still came and walked them. Would absolutely recommend her! I will definitely ask her to walk my pups again.”


About: I’ve had dogs as long as I can remember. I love playing with dogs and walking them. I can handle any size dog as well as administering meds etc. I’m recently retired so my schedule is normally very flexible. I can usually be available at a short notice if needed to be a help for your pet. I do not board pets at my home as we already have 3 of our own to love and care for on a daily basis

About: Thank you for considering me to care for your dogs. I know it’s not an easy decision. I have always had a family dog. I have run an in home doggy day care, owned a pet treat bakery, earned my Vet Tech degree, worked in veterinary clinics, a specialty animal hospital, and as a pet nutrition consultant. I have cared for young and old, sick and healthy. I have seen everything at this point. One of my dogs had seizures so I know how difficult it can be to trust someone with a pet with medical conditions. I’m here to help. I hope to make this my full time job aside from mom. I have 2 daughters and 2 dogs. Check ins fit nicely into our busy family schedule. I’ll take time for each pet. Chatting with them, snuggles, pets, let me know what they need and I'll do my best to make sure they feel your love!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7. At 10 I walked dogs for my parents friends and neighbors. I love dogs and cats! I’m retired and wanted something to do that I enjoyed. I love animals and would love to spend more time with them and exercise with them! I have fenced yard my home and two fur babies that love company. I can crate if that’s what what you prefer we will keep them company so they won’t feel alone.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since as long as I can remember, as my family has always had dogs. From labs to golden retrievers to small rat terriers, I’ve experienced a variety of dogs and it’s been a constant family obligation to make sure the dogs are always taken care of by being fed, walked, bathed/groomed, nurtured, etc. Dogs to me have always been part of the family, and should be considered a first priority and not just an after thought. I love playing with them and taking them outside when I can, and I’m young so I can (usually) still keep up with them! I always make sure to clean up after them when going on walks. I also used to volunteer at an animal shelter in my free time. I am still getting used to cats so I don’t know as much about their specific care but I am always willing to learn more. I am used to going on walks twice a day with my dog and taking her on hikes with me when I can. Her care is a part of my daily routine. I make sure to stay attentive to pets when it seems like they want attention/something from me. I work from home so I can be nearby them most of the day. I always follow their specific food schedule (or any medication) and keep the water bowls filled. I set aside time to take them outside/for a walk and clean up after them. I also love to play with them inside/lay down together.

About: I have been raised with all types of animals. Family and friends have trusted me to stop in for quick visits and also spend the night and care for babies for extended periods of time. I currently am taking online college classes and working part time so I am capable of working my schedule around when I would need to be available for you and your pets needs. My own pets have their own crates, and are friendly. I also have 3 cats that are used to being around dogs of all sizes.

Alexia M.
“I highly recommend Alexia. Before dropping my 200 lb English mastiff off, I was a little nervous because usually people get intimidated by his size and off putting demeanor but the second Alexia met Hodgedon, I could tell he was in great hands. She has a natural connection with animals and treats every pet as if they were her own. Alexia is incredibly attentive, reliable, and patient whether it's sticking to a feeding schedule, taking your dog on walks, or simply just giving your dog the love and attention they need, she is always fully present. She sent me updates of him consistently without me even having to ask! We will definitely be using Alexia again! Hodgedon misses his buddy Moose too :)”
