Dog Walking McGee Crossroads

About: Growing up, I had plenty of cats and dogs, both trained and untrained. I treat fur babies like literal humans, they deserve it. I love to cuddle with animals, play outside, or just be lazy together. I work for myself so I make my own schedule. Therefore, it isn’t hard for me to make arrangements to keep a pet or go and hangout. I have no fur babies as of now (mine recently passed) so you won’t have to worry about your pet being in a fight or hurt by the paws of any animal of mine. My home is on an acre of land with only one neighbor. I have a screened in back porch if the animal loves to sunbathe. I make it a priority to learn any pet I encounter.

“Heather was awesome for us this week. Our weekly dog walker had to take a couple of months break and Heather was awesome is stepping up and taking over and giving us everything we needed. Our girls love Heather checking in on them and we definitely plan to keep using Heather as long as we can.”

“Anastasiya took our girl Charlotte (5 year old Shepsky) for walks while my wife and I went out of town for 4 days. Charlotte can pull from time to time while walking, Anastasiya handled the walks like a pro. She took excellent care of our pup. She was punctual, affordable, dependable, communicated well and went above and beyond for our girl. She will be who we use anytime we go out of town! Thanks Anastasiya!”

About: Safe space 🤙🏻 Former military, so timeliness and attention to detail are a must. I’ve had dogs of all shapes and sizes my entire life and haven’t found one I don’t love! My wife brought a sweet one eyed cat into my life and I have found a new love for them as well. I currently have a 10 year old senior pitbull and a very high energy 1 year old american bully who would be a great play friend for any energy matching dog. I love to run and my previous dog was the best running partner I ever had. I would love to find an athlete to take out for some exercise! I currently work Tue-Sat and available after 2pm. My days completely off during the week are Sun & Mon but I am still available for walks and play in the afternoons throughout the week. I have an approx 3/4 acre fully fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play. I have 2 friendly dogs, a lazy 10 year old and a high energy 1 year old that has yet to meet his match!

About: I know how truly important it is to find someone who’s reliable, trustworthy and professional when considering pet arrangements, whether that’s just a potty break or multiple days of sitting. I have three dogs of my own at the moment and have 12 years of care experience. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, all personality types and all training levels. I typically have a very flexible schedule to accommodate most hours or need. Weekends, weekdays, holidays. I’m here to make sure this is a low stress experience for everyone. I care for my own dogs with daily walks, daily enrichment in the form of play or training time.. and of course, plenty of affection.

About: I’m an experienced and compassionate pet caregiver with over 14 years of fostering dogs through two local rescue organizations. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all different personalities, ages, sizes, and needs, giving me plenty of experience helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Your pets aren’t just animals in my care—they’re family. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as I would want someone to treat my own. One of my biggest strengths is my extreme flexibility. I understand that life doesn’t always go according to schedule, and I’m happy to work with your routine and your pet’s individual needs. Whether you need a last-minute change, an unusual schedule, or care that requires a little extra time and attention, I’ll do my best to accommodate you. I’m self-employed and work from home, which gives me an extremely flexible schedule and allows me to be available for your pets throughout the day. Because I’m not tied to a traditional 9-to-5 work schedule, I can easily adjust my day around your pet’s needs, including walks, feeding, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship. Working from home also means your pet can have plenty of attention and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods of time. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in your home, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and individual needs, and I do my best to keep their normal schedule so they feel at ease while you’re away. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, affection, and companionship, while also respecting pets who prefer a little quiet time and space. When staying in my home, pets have access to my fully fenced-in yard with over an acre of space and a privacy fence, giving them plenty of room to safely explore, stretch their legs, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. I love giving dogs the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors while still having a secure and supervised environment to come back to.

About: I have cared for animals my entire life. Recently I have began dog sitting for my neighbor and love it! Animals are my love language and I love taking care of them! I am home, all day every day, with a very flexible schedule to meet the needs of most anyone's schedule. I can work around anyone's schedule to meet their needs. In my home we have a large yard and your animals will be well cared for. My home is 100% pet friendly and ready to care for your pets.

About: Throughout my life I have cared for five dogs of my own and fostered three others! I absolutely love all animals and have a little experience training one of my own dogs! I’m currently a full-time online student at ASU and have a part-time job at the Clayton Rec Center. I am free most of the day to make plenty of time for your pets. On average I have 2-3 shifts a week that last 4-6 hours (normally in the late evenings). This gives me plenty of time in my day to care for your pet. I will make sure to have a balanced schedule for your dog and make it as consistent as possible. I plan to communicate as much as you see fit and ensure that your dog feels comfortable!

About: I’ve take care of all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, reptiles) since I was 10 years old. I have always been a trustworthy person to take care of your beloved family member. I am a teacher, a dog and cat owner myself. I am reliable, honest and kind to every person and animal big or small. I’m a teacher who has open summers. I can come morning, afternoon, or night. I have my own dog and cats that I care for on a daily basis and I would treat your animals just like I would my own. I have a fenced yard with a very friendly, spayed Dalmatian named Blue. I also have 2 very friendly rescue cats, Graham and Mellow. I have a lot of space and experience.

About: I have lived with, and grown up alongside dogs my whole life. They seem to naturally be drawn to me, and over the years I’ve learned to care for them as I would for myself (walking, feeding, bathing, brushing, ear and teeth cleaning, close emotionally bonding). I’m known in my neighborhood as the responsible dog lover, and I’m regularly asked to sit for my neighbors. One of them is a home with two older black labs, a male and female, who I sit for weeks at a time. I currently am blessed to have my 7 year old golden retriever who I spend my days with. I’m confident that I am attentive, fun and consistently reliable. ~ What sets me apart? I’m very attune to pets with behavioral needs — my own golden retriever is naturally quite anxious, and has hip dysplasia. I do well at accommodating dogs with disabilities, special medication needs. I also love to play and tire out extra high energy dogs, as I live a very active lifestyle and it’s my passion. I love the joy nature brings to dogs. In addition, I’m also skilled with a small set of training skills for both puppies and to teach old dogs new tricks. :) I’m available for board every weekend, many weekdays upon request, and daily anywhere from 5am-10pm for visits and walks. I’m flexible with my schedule, and am always welcoming long-term relationships for a more secure and personalized relationship with any pup. While I won’t be accepting board in my own home for most pets, I’m super flexible with yours. *I CAN stay in a home full time during weekdays if that’s desired* I am always enthusiastic to exercise and walk, swim or run with your pets — whether that is in a personal neighborhood, a local park, or around a lake (my personal favorite). I have a timid, kind and loving golden retriever who gets along with all breeds of dogs.

About: I always emphasize safety as well as making pets feel loved. To me, a pet is a member of the family and will always be treated as such. I currently have a part-time job and I am not in school, so my schedule is fairly flexible. Even when juggling multiple jobs, I still make time to care for my own pets at home. I always make sure they are in my line of vision and are being safe. I pay attention to their needs first and foremost by making sure they are properly fed and have water available at all times. I then give attention to their wants by seeing if they want to play, rest, etc.

About: What truly sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience combined with deep instinctual empathy. Having cared for dogs for 17+ years, I am highly attuned to their body language, unique personalities, and emotional needs. I am flexible and can travel to different homes whether is Wake County or Johnston County!
