Dog Walkers in Mars Hill, NC

“Erika walked my dog, Rico, twice a day for a week while I was out of town. She was really good about letting me know when she walked Rico and sent a photo every day. As most dog lovers, I am always looking for someone who I can trust with Rico and I could tell he was very happy when I returned! We will definitely hire her again!”

About: My name is Chelsea and I am a huge dog lover! I have a spoiled dog of my own who brings so much joy to my life! However, there is always room for more! I love all dogs of all sizes and breeds. I will run with your dog, take them on hikes, or long trails if they tend to have more energy. I will also snuggle and teach new tricks to those how tend to have less energy. I can send picture updates throughout my time with your dog. If there are certain manners or tricks you would like me to work on, I can definitely do that as well! I feel that dogs are such a gift and we are lucky to get to spend time with them!

“Kenzie is great. She has gone above and beyond with my dog. She has shown extreme patience with my reluctant pup. I truly appreciate her care and concern. She has been very willing to accommodate our needs. Thank you!”

“My dog is usually timid when she initially meets people, but not with Madison! My dog was instantly comfortable around her. Madison has a calm & kind energy, communicates great, and is reliable! Thanks Madison!”

“Becca was prompt and communicative, we were so grateful for the updates and the reliability! We didn’t get to meet Becca in person this time but hope to in the future!”

About: Hi! I'm Anahata, I am a passionate animal lover and a doggy enthusiast! No matter how big, small, slobbery or fuzzy, I would be happy to take care of your pup! I have been taking care of dogs and cats in-home and out of home for 8+ years and I am comfortable with almost all types of care. I am an avid nature lover, so I am always down to take your dog out for a run at the park , a swim at the beach, or even chill with them at home! I am a part time artist, musician and traveler, but I can be quite flexible with my doggy care schedule. Contact me with any questions you have or for details! Peace and love :)

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was five years old. I still distinctly remember the breeder of the first dog I ever owned - a chocolate lab named Ginger - looking me in the eye after seeing I was apprehensive about the dogs and telling me, "Son, some day this dog will be the best friend you ever had." Ginger and I went everywhere together. I've had dogs and cats virtually my whole life, and the animals love me. While I am employed full time, I work in a hybrid setting that includes roughly 3 remote days per week, so I can be pet sitting on site and developing as close a band as I can to alleviate the babies' separation anxiety. I aim to please - if you'd prefer for your fur baby to be crated at night, then I will make sure s/he does that. My only job, other than to make the babies' experience as smooth as possible, is to follow the directions laid out by the owners.

“Brody was amazing! My dogs are determined to attack everyone they meet with love and it can definitely be intimidating lol. Love my babies but they’re extra. Brody embraced their love and all their energy and they took to him right away! He was very communicative with me while we were out of town and he did a great job keeping up with my puppy’s medication schedule. She looked so much better when I got back. He was able to control my larger and super strong dog. Brody even went above and beyond and stayed a little longer with them. I felt at peace knowing he had them covered while we were away. Will def book him again!”

About: Please note before considering me: I do not accept any requests for dogs not friendly with other dogs. This is because I have two very friendly/happy pugs and one amazing golden retriever, who will need to participate in any all-day or overnight care I've had dogs my entire life and love all breeds, personalities, shapes, and sizes. I work from home, so they'll be in good hands! Again, your dog will need to be OK around with other dog for any overnight stays. I am flexible with your schedule, detail-oriented, and reliable. You will not be disappointed and your best friend will come home happy. Every day of the week is open! My husband and I work from home, so we are always here and take great care of our animals. We have a secure and fenced in property with tons of land to play and roam around in, including a dog splash pad and endless toys and affections to offer.

“Erik is amazing! We use him weekly to care for our fur babies while we’re at work as well as drop in visits when on vacation. He is always on time, trustworthy, and exceeds expectations. His communication is outstanding. He truly loves taking care of the pups and it definitely shows in the attention he gives each of them. This has been our first experience using a dog walker / caregiver in our home and it has been one of the best decisions yet!”

“Grace is an absolute godsend! She was able to swing by last minute and sent me lots of pictures ? Goose and I both can’t wait to have her for more walks in the future”

About: As a pet parent of both 2 dogs and a cat myself, I understand the level of care and affection your pet(s) deserve. I also understand how hard it can be to leave them behind, and to also need the reassurance that they will not only be kept safe, but also enjoy their time. From growing up with dogs and cats to now having my own, I can assure you that I am capable of proving top quality care and FUN while you are away. I have had neighbors, various family members, and clients rely on me to provide top quality care to their pets while they have been away, from providing medication to exercising and bathing. I’d love to meet and talk through all your expectations + daily life with your pets, so I can best understand how to care for them while in my care.

I have experience with training large dogs, and would be happy to help enforce and commands used in your home while I’m with any of your pets. Please let me know ahead of any special requirements for care or any verbal commands used in the home.

About: I have been pet sitting for the last 4 years as well as being a nanny for 4 children aged newborn to 5 years old. During my time pet sitting I have worked with single dogs as well as up to 4 dogs in a single household. I love playing with and entertaining the higher-energy extroverted pets and enjoy quiet cuddle-time with the more laid-back, philosophical ones. Your pets safety and overall well-being is an utmost priority and I will care for it as carefully as I do my own pet. In addition to pet sitting, I have learned a lot about interacting with all sorts of personalities in mobile pet grooming business. I have a flexible schedule that allows week-day overnights and multiple daytime check-ins with your pet. For overnight sittings, my flexible schedule allows me to check it in on your pets throughout the day, and no pet will be left unattended for more than 3 or 4 hours. I will communicate proactively and adhere to all the house rules and keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible to reduce your pet's anxiety at your absence. In addition to maintaining their regular routines, I can also brush, bathe, and blow-dry your pet while you are away! I am a considerate house-guest and will wash any dishes or towels/washcloths that I might use as well.

“She is kind, and flexible, and seems to really enjoy what she's doing with animals. Went above and beyond”

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, goats, chickens, ducks, mini horses, and loads of other animals so I am experienced in animal care! I currently have dogs and cats! I want to help other animal owners because I know how helpful pet sitting is for me! I am currently unemployed looking for animal care jobs throughout the week and weekend. I am very flexible. I’m working on getting my associates degree and I have classes Tuesday/Thursday. I know how much my pets mean to me and I want to maintain a safe and friendly environment for all the pets I will be caring for. I am a very clear communicator and I work best knowing what each individual pet needs!

About: I am about to start graduate school for counseling in the fall and I am looking for jobs as a pet sitter nearby! Everyone who knows me knows that I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I picked out and started caring for my first dog at 5 years old and have fallen in love with them ever since! I've regularly babysat pets of all shapes and sizes and now feel that I can handle any needs your fur baby may have. I am someone who loves all types of pets and enjoys their company, personalities, and affection which all contributes to my expertise in pet-care. I am a super responsible, courteous, and reliable person as well so I am dedicated to providing the utmost care and respect for your house sitting needs. I currently have another job alongside pet sitting that will need to be scheduled around. We can work out timing according to your pets needs. When pet sitting in my clients home, I never have additional guests (human or other pets) without prior permission. I do not smoke or drink and always leave a clean home.

About: Many years experience taking care of pets. All shape sizes ages and attitudes. Can be chill and patient with older dogs and active for the younger. I have a flexible schedule so am available to check in or pet sit anytime of the day. Weekends and nights are available as needed I take care older dog and two young cats. Can come sit with or walk or just play with your pet. Also no problem giving meds and feeding.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, I grew up with dogs, cats, pocket pets, birds, horses, chickens, ducks, goats, pigs. I feel like I’ve had it all, I am also a very seasoned Vet tech. I am expierenced with giving animals medication as well. If I am watching a dog I will be sure to make sure they get enough exercise, and any other pets I will make sure they all get love and cuddles! My own pets are super spoiled, and I would treat your pets just like they were my own. I don’t care about breeds, from working in a vets office I do have experience with animals that can sometimes be moody. I sure hope I get to talk to you soon! I do currently work 4 days a week, so pets that will be staying in my home will be taken care of before and after work by me. My partner is also at the house throughout the day and treats any animal that comes into our home like his own. I will take your pups for walks/hikes, and to the dog park if your pet is dog friendly. I believe allowing them to get their energy out is very important.
