Dog Walking Park Crossing

“She was great! Let me know when she got there, how the walk was and sent me a picture. I already booked more sessions. Thank you for taking care of my pups.”

“Hands down the BEST! Sarah is professional, on-time and she is great with Haiti. I can say having a Cane Corso you will be nervous if the person can handle their strength. Sarah was great book her!”

“Mary is the sweetest dog walker. She took care of my girl Jewel beyond what I hoped for during their hour long walk. Would use again. she came earlier than scheduled when I suggested it might rain later and that meant everything cause my dog doesn’t like the rain.”

“Shelbie was amazing to our little Oscar! Her communication, punctuality and love for animals made it easier to leave him behind. We will use her again.”

About: I have had my own dogs for 5 years. My two dogs are my heart! I raised my first pup from 2 months old, and our second dog we rescued when he was six months. I have the patience. I worked for a doggy daycare/boarding facility for 2 years, and I have a CPR training and certification. I have been dog sitting since highschool, I pet sit my friends dogs, cats, and even goats and chickens! I have administered medication (except needles). I love making friends with animals! I’m currently working from home, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pups. I will be able to walk, check in on, or come hang out with your pups mon-fri 8am-7pm. I will also have various overnights that I would be able to do with notice, as I do have 2 of my own dogs that need my attention! Weekends I’m available 8am-4pm I have two of my own dogs that work well with other pups if socialization is needed. My two pups are good company for all kinds of pups! I can go to anyone within range!

About: Dogs have been the center of my life for over 16 years. My journey started with my two little terriers. A Yorkie and a Silky Terrier who quickly turned my love for animals into a lifelong passion and purpose. Over the years I became the person friends, family, and neighbors call when they find an animal in need. Whether it's helping rescue a neglected dog, connecting someone with a shelter, or stepping in to care for a pet, I’ve always felt a deep responsibility to advocate for animals who can’t speak for themselves. In August 2023 I lost my soul dog, Lola, and the grief was overwhelming. In her honor, I began volunteering at the Charlotte Mecklenburg Animal Shelter in October 2023. Helping the dogs there reminded me how much love I still had to give. Since then I’ve fostered dogs for the shelter as well as local rescues like Peanut’s Place Small Dog Rescue and FurBabies Animal Rescue. Every foster that has passed through my home has received my full heart and dedication, and seeing them find loving homes has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. In 2024 I foster-failed with my sweet girl Lacey, who reminded me so much of Lola and became a permanent part of my family. Caring for rescue dogs has given me experience with dogs of many breeds, temperaments, and ages, from shy and scared pups to energetic personalities who just need guidance and love. Dogs aren’t just pets to me, they are family. I treat every dog in my care the same way I treat my own. I am currently working part-time, so I am home most of the day. My schedule is flexible and can make myself available for walks and feedings morning midday afternoons and evenings as needed. Providing a safe, loving, and calm environment is always my top priority. I live in a townhome with a small fenced backyard, and our neighborhood is extremely dog-friendly. Many of my neighbors have dogs, so I’m constantly out walking my dog and foster pups making sure they get exercise, enrichment, and fresh air. When caring for dogs in my home or yours, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as much as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also understand that every dog has a unique personality and comfort level, so I always take the time to learn their needs and boundaries. Safety and trust are incredibly important to me. I pay close attention to body language, keep a clean and calm environment, and ensure dogs always feel secure and comfortable. My experience volunteering, fostering, and walking dogs has helped me become very attentive to changes in behavior, energy, and stress levels. Whether your dog needs a relaxing walk, overnight care, or just someone to keep them company while you're away, you can trust that they will receive patience, love, and attentive care. As a bonus, I am fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate with even more pet parents in our community.

About: I’ve loved all animals all my life plus I’ve had and have a pet now. It would be a pleasure to take care of your pets with all my heart! I work from home (or anywhere) but primarily in the South Charlotte area. I’m flexible with my time during the day so I’m available to help when needed. I also attend graduate school which I fund with my Rover income. Please consider booking with me-thank you! Pet safety is my number one concern and priority! I’m patient, caring and loving to all animals. Personally, I believe dogs and cats are special creatures. I’m happy to discuss your needs for your pets so I can give you all the best experience ever!

“Katie is fantastic, and I'm thrilled to have found her. My dog, Buster, is "special needs". He warmed up to her quickly, and he even let her put his rain jacket on him. I didn't think we would trust anyone but me to do that. Buster had a great time on his walk, and he looks forward to more walks with her!”

About: Lifelong Cat and Dog owner, with a year of 1 on 1 dog daycare enrichment specialist experience, looking to make a professional difference in the lives of other pet owners! In between careers, so I have pretty open availability. Prefer during the day, but can be flexible depending where needed. Prefer to work in daytime. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Unfortunately do not have a dedicated space for boarding as of yet. Hopefully in future.

About: Your dog gets calm, attentive care in a real home, not a kennel, and not an overcrowded house. I’ve had animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, and farm animals, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments, energy levels, and needs, including senior dogs and those requiring medication. I’m home based and available throughout the day, which means consistent supervision, companionship, and exercise, whether that’s a relaxed neighborhood walk or a longer outing on the nearby greenway trail. I keep boarding low volume, typically one guest at a time, to maintain a calm, safe environment. I have a spacious fenced backyard and do a meet-and-greet before every booking to make sure it’s a good fit for your dog. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing. Reliability and clear communication aren’t extras, they’re just how I operate. I work part time from home, which leaves me with a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I’m home most of the day, allowing me to provide consistent walks, attention, and supervision. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, not as an afterthought, so your pet gets reliable, focused care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, preferences, and any medical or behavioral considerations so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and low-stress. In your home, I respect your space and your pet’s established routine. I follow all care instructions closely including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any household preferences so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, supervised environment with a spacious backyard and access to a nearby greenway for walks. I keep boarding low-volume (typically one client at a time) to ensure each pet gets focused attention. Pets are never left unsupervised with my puppy, and I use slow, thoughtful introductions to make sure everyone is comfortable. I prioritize safety at all times, including secure leashing on walks, monitoring interactions, and maintaining a clean, hazard-free environment. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: I have always had a dog growing up but rescued my own dog, almost 7 years ago and trained him from 1 month old. The experience intensified my love for dogs and training them! I am used to going on walks, potty training, and feeding schedules as well as accommodating quirks (my guy can be weird so I get it lol). I work full time from home so as long as I have notice of when I am needed it should work seamlessly in my life. If pet sitting at your home I want to keep your dog as comfortable and on routine as possible. I am well versed in all sorts of quirks so just let me know and I can adapt to whatever your pet needs. I will be diligent about following instructions and will give lots of attention and affection while you are away.

“Chloe did a great job with my golden retriever! She communicates well and sends great photos and updates! I would recommend her to help with your pets!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, from energetic puppies as a kid growing up to wise senior dogs with special needs. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, medication, or just being a calm and reassuring presence, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels — from zoomies to couch potatoes. I work full time remotely, with slight travel on an annual basis. My schedule is pretty flexible! Perfect for early mornings, lunch, or afternoon care with weekend availability majority of the time! When I care for your pet in your home, I treat it like my own — with respect, cleanliness, and attention to detail. I know how important it is to keep your pet’s routine and environment consistent, so I follow your instructions carefully and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I’ll also send daily updates with pictures so you know everything’s going smoothly. My goal is to make sure your pets — and you — feel completely at ease.

About: Previous owner of two small dogs who lived to 16 and 13. Have experience with a dog with intense medical needs (epilepsy) and have administered medication previously. Have experience in dog and cat care through volunteering at an animal shelter (Pawmetto Lifeline, SC). Currently free for the summer time (weekdays 11am-6pm) as I am an educator. Would be open to doing weekend work (also 11-6pm) once school begins. Since I have experience working with a special needs dog, I understand the importance of timeliness and attention to detail. I have a pet family of my own, and know the stress that can come with someone else taking care of them. I am someone who triple checks all leashes and harnesses before leaving, be it for a dog or a cat. My home is not open for pet sitting due to my cats, but I am more than willing to drop-in and make sure your pet family has their needs being met.

“Kristena is this patient, flexible and knowledgeable. She has the same breed of dog that I have and she’s giving me great insight on bear. When Bear returns home from the walk, he is so tired that all he can do is lay on the floor, which I appreciate very much. Since our chronic migraines and other health issues, I really appreciate all that Kristena how interacts with Bear.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, of all shapes and sizes, and a fair amount of cats. In addition, my Mom was an animal rehabilitative specialist throughout my life so I’ve learned to care for all types of critters - nothing would surprise me! I’m interested in finding more activities outside of professional work and I can’t think of a better way than to help other pet owners give their best friends fun and gentle care when life gets too busy. I know too well the guilt or stress of not being able to take a break in a busy day to give our furry family members the chance to stretch their legs or have a nice break for a little bit of play time.

“Samantha was able to walk Gemma last minute at lunch for a few days this past week. She was patient and kind with Gemma when she was very nervous at first. She kept me updated and sent photos. Would absolutely hire again. Great dog walker! Thank you !”

About: I pay attention to detail and I will love on your pet like it is my own. I will provide head scratches and belly rubs if the pet is comfortable. Over the summer I will be working part time at a store. My availability will look different week to week. Looking forward to taking care of your pets! I will follow guidelines about taking care of your pet(s). I will use caution when coming into contact with people or other animals during walks. For pet sitting, I will do frequent check-ins or stay at your place if requested.

About: I am a HUGE dog lover who enjoys dogs of all breeds. I have cared for dogs of all ages, breeds and needs.

About: I’m very good with dogs and I’ll treat them as if they were my own and give them tons of love and care! I stay at home all day so they’ll get attention all day. I also have a trail where I can take them on walks or go to the park with them and even see other doggies. I’m very flexible with days and times and whatever you need care wise I will do it. Ive taken care of my friends dogs from time to time so I do have some experience under my belt. I work through the week except for Tuesday and switch off every other weekend!
