Dog Walkers in Pisgah Forest, NC

“Kira was very polite and friendly. She kept me updated and even took photos of my puppy enjoying her walk.”

Fredy G.

“Katie was exceptional. She showed up on time, she was pleasant, she treated my dog like her own, and went above and beyond on the walks. We are so happy with her attention to detail and care.”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats. I can do any special instructions you may have for your sweet animals! I will take care of them just like my own! I am currently a stay at home mom which allows my availability to be very opened to fit any situation that may occur at anytime. I do have a toddler and he has to come with me! I take care of your animals just like my own. I will follow and listen to all your directions to make sure your fur babies are happy!

About: I am a life-long animal lover and advocate. I have nearly 2 decades of pet care experience ranging across various animal species, age, temperaments, and conditions. My schedule is quite flexible and I am happy to accommodate any special needs your furmily needs! I work from home with a very flexible schedule so I am freely available for visits. I’m also generally available on weekend visits as well. From a wellness and care perspective, I aspire to treat every animal as if it were my own. Just to speak a bit about them…I have 3 fur babies at home, 1 Pyrenees mix, 1 Cattle dog mix, and 1 feline fuzzball. Each of the dogs get ample exercise, enrichment, and treats every day. I pride myself on being a cat-dad just as much as a dog-dad so the fuzzball gets his own enrichment and support each day as well :-)

About: Experienced with puppies to senior dogs. Love long walks and playing catch. Reliable, caring, and attentive to special diets and routines for happy, healthy pets. I’m a teacher with extra free time this summer and would love to spend it with your pup! Walking is my favorite stress relief, and since I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’m looking for some quality dog time. I’m available to walk your dog up to three times a day—or more if you'd like! I can also stay awhile to feed and pet your pup. Your dog will be in caring, dependable hands—and I’ll treat them like family. I try to keep things as normal and comfortable as possible for your pet. I follow your routine—feeding, walks, playtime, whatever they’re used to—so they feel safe and happy. I give lots of love, attention, and belly rubs, and make sure they get the care and company they need while you're away.

About: I’ve cared for and loved dogs and cats since I was young. From puppies to seniors, I’ve had the pleasure of loving them all. I currently have my own big dog who I absolutely adore. He has given me plenty of experience with being able to handle strong and energetic dogs. I work for myself from home so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I will always try to be as accommodating as I possibly can. Happy to care for your fur babies whenever you need. I am very conscientious about the safety of both your pet and home. When welcoming me into your space to care for your pet, I make it a priority to be mindful of these things to give you peace of mind.

About: Howdy! My name is Grey, and i want to snuggle your dog! Once upon a time, as an aging single male with no children employed at a plant, a coworker asked me if I would mind watching her dog for a night while she left town. I obliged and from that grew several clients from my workplace, and friends told friends, dogs told dogs, and i was never in my own bed for months watching other peoples' dogs and homes. My reviews are real and recent and if dogs could write as well as they speak, they would echo the same. I'm extremely interactive with your Pooch,but I'M NOTHING SPECIAL. I do specifically what im told regarding pets, household duties, errands AND NOTHING MORE OR LESS unless circumstances absolutely called for it. Excessive dog walks? NO PROBLEM! Plant watering and mail? LEMME DO THAT! Receiving 18 Amazon packages daily that you don't want on your front porch? Perfect, I don't want them on your porch either! My goals for your booking are: 1) Total peace of mind for pet parents upon departure. 2. 100% wagalicious excitement OR cuddlicious tranquility for pet during the trip. 3) A clean and choreless home with happy pets upon arrival. I'm ultra reasonable and can work with people on pricing depending on specific scenarios BUT I am not a miracle worker nor am I a dog whisperer. I throw balls, take long walks, verbally stimulate, feed and water your furbabies. Sometimes, i let them kiss my mouth (once per day, per dog). I take them to parks. I take them on hikes. I do not train them to any extent. SO, if they are destructive with the owner around, they will be 10x as destructive with me around. If they pee in the house, they are going to pee in 10x as much Square footage with me around vs the actual owner. I'm not Cesar Milan....I'm YOU for a week. Please respond with some contact info, interested dates and maybe anything ultra specific needed during your excursion. I'm a solid sitter, but there is only one of me, so let's book soon! Any medical professionals specializing in male pattern baldness, TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE, please:) I do this full time, however, I'm newer to the area and I'm now discovering some of the challenges it provides, mostly that my average commute between jobs and home is over 1 hour. Ideally, i leave your house 1-2 times per day for no more than 4-5 hours. I do this with your dog's daily routine in mind, and am with them at whatever specific times needed for wake up, feedings etc. I use this time to handle other dogs, do my own errands or just a general break from sitting in the same place for 24 hours. These are obviously just guidelines and they can be altered to suit you and puppykins, and whatever is decided between us is adhered to responsibly every time. I love all dogs and 99% of cats and 95% of people. So much love to give.... I have ALWAYS, well before signing up for this app, cleaned client homes before client returns home. While not a professional, my goal is to always leave property in the same condition or better than I found it, mostly successfully. DON'T LET MY DEMOGRAPHIC FOOL YOU!!! I'm tidy and domesticated and I treat people's space and belongings with the highest level of care. I act as if there is a camera on me at work and in my personal life (and there likely is!). Pets are never unattended except for when I use restroom or quick necessity while tending to other matters of the home. Any and all protocols discussed are strictly adhered to. I take this very seriously. I watch a lot of Judge Judy and Judge Joe Brown helped raise me. I handle people's homes and pets in accordance with their exacting standards towards pet handlers and caretakers

“Maria met and exceeded expectations across-the-board and was a consummate professional. At no time did I ever feel anything other than complete confidence in the level of care she was providing my animals in my absence. I hope to be able to have her take care of my pets in the future and I highly recommend her without reservation for any pet sitting or pet care needs.”

Mike W.

“Thank you Kelsey for taking care of Piper on short notice. We'll definitely be in touch again.”

About: I have been around all types of animals and pets my whole life. I don't mind taking care of any type of pet you may have from babys to seniors, cats of all breeds and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m also good with taking care of other domestic pets, exotic pets and farm animals. I only work part time so I have a lot of extra time to care for animals and enjoy being outdoors walking, biking and hiking. I can also just enjoy sitting on the porch with a cat in my lap and a dog at my feet. I have a fully fenced in yard for dogs to run and play in. We have a back deck that can be closed off for playtime. Inside we have room for play and crate time if needed. My house is open and available for fur babies to relax, run, play and have pet beds for sunbathing or relaxing.

“She was fantastic, responsive, and took great care of my boy!”

About: I have been a professional animal sitter for the past 15 years in Brevard NC and we've pretty much seen it all. I have a passion for animals and I have wonderful references. Some of my clients have been with me for all 15 of those years. I have sat for homes with cats, birds, dogs, rodents, reptiles, horses, goats, and chickens. I have one large sweet golden retriever who can stay with my brother on his farm if it is an issue for your pet(s). My husband and I work as a team to ensure all goes smoothly. Come meet us or give us a call to set up an interview and see why people come back! Hope to hear from you, Betsy Watson

About: Hi! I love animals and have always had them throughout my life, ranging in size from rodents to horses. Currently, I have a cat and miss having a dog in the home, so I would love nothing more than to make sure your pet has the care and attention you would give him or her yourself. As a doting pet owner, I understand the importance of knowing your pet is in good hands and well cared for and just how important updates can be when you are away. I am open to working with your schedule and learning anything particular that you and your pet may need. My services include walking, running, playing, feeding, administering medicines, or even bathing and brushing your pet. Just let me know any particulars in our meet and greet! Currently in between jobs and looking to fill in my schedule with some furry childcare. I have a flexible schedule and will only list on my calendar my availability. I am available to stay in your home since I know how important it can be for making pets feel safe. As a world traveller who uses home exchange, I will always leave your home as I found it if not neater and let you know of any issues right away.

About: I am currently a coveted, 5-star petsitter and housesitter through TrustedHouseSitters with 22 sits completed (and counting!) in just 7 months on the site. For over 6 years, I have been caring for pets and homes of colleagues, friends, and family. Throughout my journeys, I have made sweet and affirming connections with numerous dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, and the occasional bird, pig, chinchilla, and chicken. My petsitting responsibilities have included refilling and cleaning food and water bowls, scooping litter multiple times a day, taking dogs out for walks, engaging in nourishingly active play, and — of course — supplying snuggles, scratches, and belly rubs galore! I also have experience administering medication & shots to dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens, and have cared for senior dogs and cats as well. I have 6 years of experience housesitting. My housesitting responsibilities have included wiping down the counters, sweeping, vacuuming, washing dishes, cleaning the stove and burners, and disposing of trash/compost/recycling. My first priority is always the pets and homes I care for. I arrange my schedule according to your pets and homes in order to honor each of their specific needs at any given time, as I have a very flexible, part-time, remote job. I'm also a big homebody and am always delighted to curl up with your pets while reading, writing, or enjoying a nice cup of tea! I am a strong communicator who asks detailed questions to ensure that your pets and homes receive the care that they need. I am proactive in my care to ensure that you may go about your travels with ease. I follow all house rules and respect your home boundaries. Ultimately, I am a true lover of animals at heart who will provide tender care for your furry companions!

“Hannah was prompt, pleasant, and our dog loved being with her. I would highly recommend her.”

About: What sets me apart is my deep experience and intuitive understanding of animal behavior built over 12+ years of caring for pets. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and temperaments, from playful puppies to senior pets with special needs. I’ve administered medications, handled dietary restrictions, and adapted care to suit anxious or shy animals. I take the time to bond with each pet so they feel safe, seen, and loved. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and I always prioritize communication so you can feel confident while you’re away. I’m currently working full-time Monday through Friday. Fridays I am available beginning 12:30pm and completely open on Saturdays and Sundays. Feel free to contact me if a different time is needed! At my home, pets have access to a secure yard for supervised outdoor time and a cozy indoor space to relax. I live in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of walking paths for daily walks and fresh air. I also have a small dog who will definitely keep your pup some company. Whether it’s daycare, overnight stays, or boarding, I maintain a clean, calm environment with structured routines, lots of play, and individualized attention based on your pet’s needs.

About: Hi!! I’m Sky, an adventure seeker, an outdoors enthusiast and the most passionate dog person this side of the Mississippi 😆 I’m new to the area and settling into my new home. I have the PERFECT set up at home for pets (giant fenced-in yard, access to many hiking trails/dog parks, etc.) More importantly, I am extremely passionate about animals and giving them the love they deserve. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always been called on to dog sit for family & friends. Your pet will be safe, snuggled, and loved in my care! I typically have 3-4 days off in a row, every week. This makes it easy for me to give your pet the attention he/she deserves. My average work day is 6-8 hours, so if pet setting falls on a work day for me, this is the longest stretch of time your pet would be without care. I have no other pets (yet) 😆. So your dog will get my undivided attention! My home offers a large yard, many dog walking opportunities in the area, pet-friendly furniture, and an indoor camera for the kennel or dog room, so you and I can keep an eye on your dog while I’m away at work!

About: As a pet owner for over 25 years, I know how valuable it is to have a reliable person caring for your animals when you're away. I was recently laid off and would like to have a job working with animals instead of people ( at least for now). I took care of animals and house sat in my twenties and have plenty of experience with dogs and cats. I am currently unemployed, so I'm available anytime. My daughters both have plans for the summer, so I am very flexible on when I can work. Since I have my own animals, I prefer to care for animals in their own home. This is where they feel the safest and have less anxiety while their owner is away.

About: Pet lover and caretaker since I was a child, vet tech for 10 years, loads of experience with medical conditions, senior care, puppy & kitty care, disability care. I've got time, patience and lots of love to give! I have a flexible work from home schedule and can work around you and your pets schedules. I am equally happy taking walks or just snuggles on the couch, whatever your pet prefers to make sure they feel content and loved while you're gone. The most important thing to me is keeping your pet safe and well cared for while you're gone. Keeping a routine if they need it, basic limited interaction for shy ones, specialty food prep, whatever they need!
