Dog Walking North

About: I’ve been caring for pets for 20+ years, helping neighbors, friends, and family with everything from walks and playtime to making sure their pets feel happy and comfortable while they’re away. I’m naturally active and make walking a priority in my own life, so having a four-legged companion join me is something I genuinely enjoy! Whether your dog needs a good walk to burn off some energy, a little playtime and attention, or simply a reliable friend to keep them company, I’m happy to tailor each visit to their personality and routine. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your dog like my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and notes so you can feel confident knowing your pup is happy and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 I have a flexible full-time job that allows me to work pet care into my schedule, making it easy for me to provide walks, potty and play breaks, and overnight stays. I’m available most days of the week and genuinely enjoy having a reason to get outside and spend time with a furry friend! My flexible schedule also allows me to give pets the attention and companionship they deserve rather than simply rushing in and out. I am willing to overnight sit at your home if needed. Also, available to do drop in visit to ensure your dog or cat is safe and well looked after throughout the day.

“Cassie was very dependable and good with our dogs while we were on vacation. She was flexible and accommodating when we realized we had entered the wrong dates in the Rover booking. She administered our dogs’ medication and spent time playing with them. Overall, she was great!”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets. Caring for animals is something I do because I love it, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special medical needs, including Addison’s disease, so I understand the importance of following medication schedules, monitoring behavior, and providing attentive care. I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who may need extra patience and attention. I believe every pet deserves plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and affection while their owners are away. My goal is to provide a safe, caring, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners, giving you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I currently work from home in the North Raleigh area, which gives me a great deal of flexibility and allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can accommodate walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, medication needs, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars! Absolutely incredible sitter, I could tell that she treated my babies like her own. I cannot recommend Brooklynn enough! She took care of my two precious baby girls this past week, and she was an absolute lifesaver. From the very beginning, she proved to be super flexible, communicative, and punctual. She provided amazing care for my girls the entire week, ensuring all their routines were followed perfectly. The daily pictures and updates she sent gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It is so clear how much she truly cares about animals.I will definitely be returning to her for future pet sitting and dog walking needs! I highly believe she provides true 5-star service. Thank you, Brooklynn!!❤️”

About: I have been an animal owner since I was a child. I’ve cared for cats and dogs regularly as well as other animals including hamsters, snakes, and children ;) I am not currently able to have an animal of my own, so I find joy in caring for others’ pets. My son enjoys playing and caring for the pets with me! We recently relocated to the Raleigh area from Michigan and are excited to meet! I work from home, and have a flexible schedule, so I can easily accommodate a daily walk and regular potty breaks. However, a crate is required for overnight stays. I have a fenced in dog park with plenty of space for running and playing and a nice neighborhood with sidewalks for long walks! :)

About: I’ve loved caring for animals for many years, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet personally. I work from home which allows me to be around throughout the day to provide frequent bathroom breaks, lots of play time and plenty of walks. I also really love going on walks so your dog will have plenty of opportunities to get outside ( I walk on the greenway every morning) to get outside and exercise. I’m happy to follow specific routines, administer medications when needed, and give each pet the individuals care they’re used to. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, happy and right at home! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule.

About: I’ve been regularly dog and cat sitting for the past five years, providing drop-in visits and overnight care.

Since my apartment doesn’t allow me to have a pet of my own right now, I love getting the opportunity to give your furry friends plenty of love and attention. I’m reliable when it comes to feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

About: I have always had a pet in my home since I was a younger. We have had dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, and fish. We have had cats live until close to 20 so I am comfortable with older animals and administering medications. I have also fostered cats in the past, so I have a lot of love and attention to give to your fur baby. My schedule is flexible. I work from home so I am happy to provide doggy day care during the work day as well as drop-in visits or daily walks. The pets I sit for are always well loved and cared for. I make sure to spend time with them to give them the love and attention they need. I treat them like my own pets, and how I want mine to be taken care of when I am away. My schedule is flexible depending on the week and I so I can usually accommodate many clients at a time. I work from home so I can also provide doggy day care. I care for pets in the home as needed by the client. I have my own pets so I know what it is like to be away and I provide the same level of care their owner would.

“Lauren did a terrific job checking in on and walking our girl. She was prompt and provided us with good info on their daily walks and Mia’s well-being. It’s a great comfort to have someone as reliable as Lauren looking after your pet. Highly recommended!”

About: As a work-from-home professional, I can keep your fur baby company all day long, and check in multiple times a day. Does your energetic herding dog need twice-daily walks or visits to the dog park? No problem -- they're just like the Australian Shepherd I grew up with and the Rough Collie I petsit regularly. I am also an ardent cat lover with experience caring for my aging childhood cat (age 20+), as well as a skittish rescue with seasonal allergies. If you have a senior cat who needs extra care or shy kitten who needs daily medication, I'm the petsitter for you. I have an extremely flexible schedule and can accomodate boarding every day of the week. I'm also available for daycare across Raleigh, although I may have more limited availability on Wednesday and Thursday nights, as well as Sunday afternoons and evenings. Feel free to ask about my schedule! I live in a townhouse with a small, fenced-in patio and my one cat. She is typically kept in a separate part of the house during boarding, so I can accommodate animals who are reactive to cats. The yard is great for smaller dogs who enjoy being outside, but I can also care for larger animals who need lots of exercise!

“Thais was outstanding. She went above and beyond, especially having to deal with our pup catching a stomach bug. Thais was a great communicator, on time, and took lots of photos during her walks.”

“Thank you SO much for walking Waffles and Rosie!! I even had a mixup in my booking date (my fault) and Katie was able to accommodate and take care of our babies. I literally cannot thank you enough’”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 12 and have experience with all sizes and temperaments 🐾 I have a fully fenced yard, tons of toys, and a safe, loving home. I have 3 friendly dogs, but I can separate if needed,your dog’s comfort always comes first 💛 I live with my partner Fernando, who helps care for the pups, so someone is always home,your dog will never be alone! Lots of walks, playtime, and love guaranteed 🐶✨ As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits, as well as consistent weekly care. Because I’m home most of the day, I’m able to give pets reliable attention, timely walks or check-ins, and stick closely to their normal routines. I plan my day carefully to make sure each pet receives dedicated, unrushed care. Safety and trust are my top priorities with every pet I care for. Whether I’m in my home or a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely and maintain the pet’s normal routine as much as possible. I’m attentive to secure doors, leashes, and safe environments during walks and visits. I keep feeding areas, water bowls, and litter boxes clean, and I monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health. I provide consistent updates and photos so pet parents feel confident and informed. My goal is always to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment where pets feel secure and well cared for.
