Dog Walking Olde Whitehall

About: Animals have been my world since I was 15. I’ve worked as a zookeeper at three parks, giving me deep experience with all ages, breeds, and behaviors. I specialize in enrichment, gentle handling, senior care, and even puppy training—with lots of love, of course! 🐾💛 Caring for animals is part of my everyday life. I make time for walks, play, and check-ins, and I treat every pet like family. 🐾💕 In my client’s home, I stick closely to their pet’s routine—feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I aim to keep pets happy, safe, and relaxed while their humans are away. I also make sure their space stays clean and cozy, just like home should feel.

“Arrell had been SO amazing with our girl, Penny Lane! And she’s a handful too. We really appreciate how easy he is to work with and communicates great! Thanks so much!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I bring to every pet. I take time to really understand their routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for—not just watched. I have experience with puppies and can help reinforce basics like potty training, leash walking, and positive behavior in a patient, encouraging way. I’m also great with senior pets, making sure they’re comfortable, sticking to routines or medications, and adjusting care to match their pace. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and I keep you in the loop with regular updates and photos so you always have peace of mind. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they’re happy, healthy, and well cared for. 🐾 As a disabled veteran, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available 24/7 and have the flexibility to give pets consistent, reliable care throughout the day and night. In my apartment: I create a calm, pet-friendly space where they can relax and feel at ease. I stick closely to their usual feeding schedule, walks, and sleep routine so nothing feels out of place. There’s plenty of supervised playtime, attention, and a safe area for rest. I keep things clean, structured, and low-stress so it really feels like a home away from home.

“Awesome pet sitters! Highly recommend! Accommodating, flexible and I just love the notes!”

“My Blue loved Sharon! She played with him tons and I felt very comfortable that he got a sufficient break from his crate while I was gone. ☺️”

About: I've been around animals my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. Growing up, I helped care for our family dogs, a Golden Retriever named Miley, followed by Henry and a beagle terrier mix Tippy. I did feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I also had two guinea pigs, which taught me the importance of consistency and attention to detail when caring for pets. Over the years, I've also helped friends and family with pet sitting, feeding, walking, and checking in on their pets while they were away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members as if they were their own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a cat owner, I spend time each day feeding, playing with, and caring for my cat, as well as keeping her environment clean and comfortable. I also enjoy being active and getting outside, so dog walks fit easily into my schedule. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to provide attentive care, check-ins, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always follow the owner's instructions and routines. In a client's home, I make sure pets stay comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and lots of attention and affection. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter approach, I'm happy to adapt to their individual personality and needs.

“Emma is absolutely amazing! She is reliable, professional, and truly cares for my dog like he’s her own. The updates and pictures she sends give so much peace of mind, and our dog gets so excited every time he sees her. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her — highly, highly recommend! ⭐️🐾”

“Maria really goes above and beyond with communication, care, and cute photos!! She is a lifesaver and always makes sure my dog has everything she needs to be comfortable after her walks!! She’s also been super great with keeping consistency with walk training which is a huge help!”

About: I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter since March 2024. I have experience walking all sizes of dogs from Bernese Mountain dogs to an 8 week old pug. I’ve worked with deaf dogs, a dog that was post-op for an ACL tear, and administered medicine if the pet required it. If you have a reactive dog, I may not be the best fit for you, and that’s okay! I have experience with dogs that are reactive to cars, but I prefer not to work with dogs who are reactive to other animals. I started doing this for a little extra cash & exercise when I’m not touring as a full-time stand up comedian. (It’s a real thing. I promise you never have to hear my jokes, but your dogs probably will at some point during our walks.) If you need a weekday dog walker, I’m your gal! You will also have ample notice for any time that I am traveling out of town for shows as my tours are booked the year prior. I had about 10 consistent weekly clients in Pittsburgh working with a business called Happy Tails, but I just moved to Charlotte so I’m looking for new clients! I’m available most weekdays. Weekends are tougher and will depend on my schedule from my full-time job, but I am open to weekends as long as I am in Charlotte. I am very serious about the comfort and safety of your pet. That means I will take the safest route possible (paved sidewalks with low traffic if possible), provide water, and clean up after them when they potty to keep your neighbors happy. I am happy to follow any guidelines you have for caring for your animal. I am also open to doing a trial period with your pet to make sure that we are a good fit for each other.

“Had a great experience with Kelly. She went above and beyond with taking care of my dog. I will be using her again 100% !”

About: I have handled hundreds of dogs from over 10 yrs of dog shelter volunteering and dog training as well as caring for my own pets. I will do my best to fit you into the schedule. I understand how important it is to get our pets walked and their social needs met. I am extremely careful with peoples pets and keeping them safe as I know they are family. I can follow any requirements you may have for your pups specific needs.

About: I’ve had a Dog Cat and housesitting business since I was 15. I have several clients that can provide reviews and constantly recommend me to their friends. Currently, I’m available all day for a drop-in, I have a few clients I stopped by to feed their pets as they work late nights. My clients often get photos and comments about their pets. As a pet owner myself, I treat My clients pets as if they were my own Because that’s how I want my pets to be treated.

“Sophie was great! Super patient and kind with Jasper and provided get updates and pictures! Will definitely be rebooking”

About: I have raised two dogs from puppyhood and handled their training and daily care myself. Kenzie came home at six weeks old, and my husky joined our family at eight weeks old. My experience includes house training, crate training, leash manners, basic commands, socialization, teaching tricks from the past with my pets and all the love and cuddles in the world with a mountain of toys. Friends and neighbors have also trusted me to help with their dogs, especially with common behaviors such as jumping, pulling, nervousness, and adjusting to new routines. I use a calm, patient, and consistent approach, and I never force a dog into an unfamiliar situation before they are comfortable. I am experienced with puppies, large dogs, senior dogs, cats, dogs that are not crate trained, and multi-pet households. I can also administer oral medications, follow specific feeding instructions, prepare meals, and maintain detailed routines. I am also a breast cancer survivor for any of my warriors out there, and when lost my beloved 12-year-old husky Sophie, caring for other companions felt like a meaningful way to honor her memory. With that being said, any special needs dogs, senior dogs that have any disabilities, seizures, cancer or any other needs, just know we have extra care items for your fur baby if needed. My friends often joke that my husband and I are “animal whisperers” because pets tend to feel comfortable and relaxed around us. I work from home working on my start-up business, so I am home all the time! This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I can accommodate regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, medication schedules, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. Because I am home most of the day, pets receive companionship and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I care for every pet according to their normal routine, personality, energy level, and comfort needs and special needs. My home offers a large backyard for supervised playtime, exercise, and fresh air. There is also a covered gazebo with a grassy area where dogs can relax, cool down, or take a quiet break when needed. There are also two cameras outside as well so I can always have eyes on them no matter what! I am currently transforming my garage into a fun indoor dog jungle gym, although that space is still under construction. For now, pets can enjoy the backyard, comfortable indoor areas, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all feeding, medication, walking, household, and safety instructions. I also provide photos and updates so pet parents can feel comfortable and confident while they are away.

“Sam is amazing & does so great with Kobe. He’s always ready for a nap after one of their walks.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dog breeds since I was 16, I have experience with training puppies as well as working with older dogs and disabled ones as well. And I would love to care for yours! I currently work early mornings from 4:30am to around 11am, Monday through Friday but besides that I have open availability the rest of those days. I have an open place for your animals to walk with me as well as a friendly furry friend named Phoebe to keep yours company. If them staying with me is not what you want when it is just me one on one with your babies I pay extensive attention to their needs to make sure they are happy and healthy when you are not there.

“great communication & really appreciated her coming to meet my dog before their walk because she tends to be shy with strangers. definitely will be using Chloe again to take care of my babies!”
