Dog Walking Northeast

“Al is a 5 star sitter . He did care for my dog. He communicates and answers in time all the messages. He comes in time to walk my dog. He sends a lot of pictures during the walk. I highly recommend to hire him.”

About: I'm a dog mom of a 2-years old Golden Retriever girl named Lani and spending time with her is truly the best. I also regularly volunteer at SPCA of Wake County as a "Dog Butler", where I spend time caring for and interacting with dogs with different personalities and needs. As a dog owner myself I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member and how difficult it can be to find that someone. I'm patient, attentive, reliable and I enjoy everything from long walks and playing time to cuddles and relaxing together. I'm comfortable following each dog's individual routine, including feeding, schedules, walks and special instructions from their owners. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy and well cared, while giving you as the owner peace of mind knowing your furbabies are in caring and loving hands. After relocating from Germany to Raleigh, I'm currently at home and have a very flexible schedule. I'm essentially a full-time dog-mom, so I have time and flexibility to care for your pup, doing drop-in visits and walks. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. Since I currently provide care in the client's home, I make sure to follow your pets routine, house rules and any special instructions you provide. I always treat your home and your furry family member with care and respect. I want you to feel completely comfortable while you're away.

“Claire has been amazing with walking our pups during the day while we’re away at work! She goes above and beyond with making sure they get lots of water, bathroom breaks, and chill time during their time with her. Also really appreciate her updates and pictures to set our minds at ease!”

“Lori has been great with my dog, Oshie! She’s followed all of my instructions to a T. I’ve hired her multiple times to walk my dog, and there’s never been an issue. 10/10 would recommend!”

Madison R.

“So happy we found Morgan—our Rhodesian ridgeback Zulu immediately warmed up to her. She’s fantastic with dogs and very knowledgeable about dog behavior, super responsive, great at communication, and a very friendly person! We’re excited for her to spend more time with Zulu in the future.”

“Madison was amazing! She took time to come meet Lucy and see our routines before my trip, and when she took Lucy on her walks, left detailed feedback and best of all, Lucy looked happy! Will definitely hire again!! Thank you!!!!”

“Marissa is fantastic! She came over for a meet and greet at my request prior to the first walk. She then sent notes and pictures from her walk with my pups. She is very easy to communicate with. I will definitely use her again!”

About: Even as a kid, I was the primary caregiver for my childhood dog, Zoey. I took responsibility for making sure she was fed and watered, taking her for long walks and playing with her in our backyard. I knew that when I grew up, I would adopt a dog as soon as I could. A few months before I was discharged from the Marine Corps, I reached out to my hometown's local animal shelter about Baron. Baron was a 2-year-old, Boxer/Pit mix and from the moment I saw his picture, I knew he was going to be my boy. I called the shelter regularly to see if he was still there and let them know the day I could pick him up. I drove from my base in California to my Mom's house in Florida, dropped my stuff off, and immediately went to the shelter to adopt Baron. For the first few months I took him everywhere I went. All my friends and family knew that if Dan was coming, so was Baron. A few years after adopting Baron, I shared pictures of him with a girl I was talking to, and she immediately wanted to meet him. I took him for a walk with her and, as they say, the rest is history, she’s my wife. She brought two cats to the relationship, Teyla and Cara, and I eventually adopted a third cat, Ahsoka, with her. I cared for Baron together for 10 years. In 2022, he was diagnosed with bone cancer in his jaw, and we decided to try surgery, chemo and radiation. My wife and I got another 3 years with him, when the vet had told us he had 6 months to live. In 2025, his cancer returned, and he passed away just a few months before I got married. I spread some of his ashes at our wedding ceremony at one of the purest lakes in New Zealand and his name is engraved on our wedding bands. Shortly after saying goodbye to Baron, my wife and I adopted our fourth cat, Leia. I like to say she is Baron reincarnated because she follows me everywhere and has taken his place begging for food at the dinner table. I love meeting new dogs and cats, and have never met a dog that doesn't like me (I think everyone knows that cats aren't always that easy to win over!). As the caregiver for your pet, I bring years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I have experience with puppies, kittens, and senior dogs and cats. I am experienced with delivering oral and topical medications, and hand feeding. I am experienced with obedience training and basic commands, crate training, walking on a lead, different types of dog collars, and off leash e-collar use. I understand how to safely have dogs meet, and what signs to look for to signal aggression, discomfort, fear, or playfulness when around other dogs. I understand that pets have routines and schedules, and I will adjust my day to make sure your pet can keep their routine. I know what it's like to have another person care for my pets, and I will make sure to send photos and messages with updates to let you know your pet is safe and happy. As a stay-at-home trophy husband and cat dad, my day is flexible and I can ensure your pet's care and comfort is my top priority. I am currently working part time so I have a flexible schedule to acommodate your pet's routine. Your pet will get a considerable amount of attention and care while I'm with them. I have used Rover in the past for my own dog so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, whether it's reinforcing good behavior or just giving lots of care and love, your pet's well being is my top priority. I'm available when you need me. From checking in on your pets while you are on vacation, taking your dog for a nice stimulating walk, or staying the night with your pets, let me know what works best for you! I will care for your pet in your home so they feel safe and comfortable. I will always have your dog on a leash and check the immediate area for other people/animals before leaving the house. I will respect your home like it's my own house, and I will follow your pet's schedule and house rules.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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!!❤️”

“Alyssa was great with Koda! It’s been very difficult finding someone that we can trust with our best friend. Koda can be very stubborn at times and is very strong, so it takes someone special who understands dogs and can handle him. Koda was very excited when Alyssa would stop by to walk him! We’re very happy that we found Alyssa and look forward to having her walk Koda in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats all throughout my life whether they are young or old. I have also administered medications such as pills or shots for diabetes. I am currently a student, so my schedule is pretty flexible and I should be able to accommodate most schedules with enough notice. Currently, a 7 day a week availability. I care for pets in their own home ensuring the environment is safe for them to be in and making sure when taking walks are always safely tethered to a harness and leash to ensure others safety as well as the pet themselves. I will take any guidance or preference for care from the owners to ensure quality care is always provided to my clients.

“Best dog walker ever! She goes above and beyond every time and her communication is amazing. You can tell Ayla loves what she does. Thank you!”

“Maria was very helpful with Cooper and willing to assist in our training. She always spent quality time with him and made sure to tell us of anything that happened on their adventures. Highly recommend!”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with 12 years of hands-on experience raising my own 60 lb dog, Koda, from puppyhood through his senior years. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels, from young puppies to senior pups. I’m happy to give high-energy dogs a long walk or a good run. I can’t wait to give your pup plenty of love and take pictures and videos while you’re gone! I work remotely, so I have a very flexible schedule and can easily take dogs out every 2 hours for bathroom breaks. I can accommodate walks, runs, or playtime throughout the day, making sure your pup gets consistent attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I provide in-home care and treat every dog like family. From playful puppies to senior pups, I follow your routines while giving plenty of love, attention, and exercise, including walks or runs for high-energy dogs! My goal is to make sure your fur child feels happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Katlyn was by far the best dog sitter I’ve ever booked! Her love and care for my pets was evident. It’s obviously she genuinely enjoys caring for animals. She was very communicative and sends plenty of pictures to help put your mind at ease. I will definitely try to re-book her in the future. She’s the best of the best”

“Hailey was very patient with Obe, who can be a very shy puppy. By the second visit, she was able to get him to go on a big walk!”

About: Animals are truly my biggest passion! Having both a dog and a cat at home, I treat every pet I sit for like family. I’ve been pet sitting for neighbors and friends for about five years now, which taught me how to keep pets happy and comfortable in their routines. Volunteering at the Wake County Animal Center gave me great experience reading different behaviors, and my professional childcare background ensures I am highly reliable and safe. I can't wait to give your pet all the love, long walks, or quiet snuggle time they need! I currently work as a nanny, but my summer schedule is wide open with tons of weeks off while the family travels, giving me full availability right now! I have so much time to step away and completely spoil your furry friends. I'm also super active and love hitting the gym, so getting outside for daily walks and hitting my step count is a huge priority for me. Walking your pup fits perfectly into my daily routine, and I’ll make sure they get all the exercise, fresh air, and attention they deserve! When caring for your pets in your home, my top priorities are safety, consistency, and respect for your space. Because I am a professional nanny, keeping a tight eye on safety and sticking to precise schedules is second nature to me. I make sure to strictly follow your exact instructions for feeding, routines, and any medications so your pets feel secure and comfortable in their own environment. During walks, I am always highly alert to our surroundings, keeping dogs on a secure leash and completely avoiding interactions with unknown animals. At the end of every visit, I double-check that doors are locked, security systems are set, and your home is left exactly how you left it. You will get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing both your pet and your home are in great hands!

“We love Emily! She walks my moms pup during the week. Emily is extremely kind and takes great care of Pippi! We would be lost without her.”

“I appreciated how thorough Erin was to confirm she had all the necessary information about my pup for a safe and happy walk! Thanks, Erin! We will definitely request Erin for future walks and sitting needs!”
