Dog Walking Raeford

About: I grew up with cats, fostered a border collie puppy in college and have experience training puppies and kittens. I currently have two cats and will hopefully be getting my own dog soon! I have experience with senior care for cats, giving medication, and grooming both cats and dogs. I have a bachelor’s degree, government background checks and am CPR, ACLS and BLS certified. I love long walks and cuddling up with animals! Your furry friend will be well loved and taken care of! 🇺🇸If you are a part of the military family, I have access to base I work part-time so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I am available on most weekends and am open to regularly scheduled visits. I should be available for most holidays due to the nature of my husband’s job. I am unable to board animals at this time due to having a cat at home. I am available for daily drop-ins for those of you working long hours or for when you’re on vacation. I love taking dogs for walks and playing fetch, tug of war, and giving snuggles! Cats definitely have a special place in my heart and I deeply understand their needs.

About: A perfect place for you pups to make friends with our's, and enjoy running around in a safe space. We have a fenced yard for the pups to play and enjoy playtime with each other. We don't have any strict rules about crating. There will always be someone home with the pack. We can also accommodate for pups that need space away from the group. You tell us what accommodations your pup needs and we will make it happen. We have trained all of our pups and feel more than capable of taking care of other pups. All we ask is that you are completely honest about your pup and their needs. The more we know the best care we can provide. With Alexandra, my three being home full time, you'll never have to wonder what your pup is up to. If we need to run an errand we will let you know. We are transparent and communicate well. Our inbox is open! Please Note you will have to provide food for your pet doing the stay and crate if need be. Happy holidays My wife is home full time with my son and can be with the boardings. I am flexible with work and doing house visits or drop in visits I have an acre of land that is fenced for my backyard. I have an extra crate if needed. We often let the dogs out in the house to relax and hang out

About: Ive been pet sitting since i was 14, taking care of my family members pets and providing with the best care possible. They deserve a better world so i decided to make part of it. I currently work in the military, but i enjoy bringing happiness to pets and figured i would make it possible for the people who aren’t available at certain times. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats who are in peace with each other’s company. I take my pets outside with a leash and avoid letting them free outside my home for obvious reasons. Your pets will be welcomed and well taken care of!

About: I’ve been raised around dogs and cats my whole life. From giving medication to helping a paralyzed dog walk and go potty, I am very attentive to what a dog and cat needs. I know how stressful it can be to leave your animal at home all day without human interaction or going outside to potty, but with my help I will be able to do that for you. I will not overstep any boundaries and follow your rules and instructions for your pet. I am available from 5pm-10pm M-F and any time on the weekends! I would love to watch, take care of, or walk your pet. Each pet that I have ever taken care, i treat them like my own. I wouldn’t want someone who doesn’t care for animals to take care of them. Each pet gets a lot of attention and the best care. I make sure I do what the owner(s) tells me and provide them with any sort of issue or concern. With in-home visits, I will make sure I am doing what is being told. If they need to eat or play, I will do so. With walking, i will make sure it’s in an area you and your pet are comfortable with.

About: Hi! I’m a loving and dependable dog mom to two dogs of my own, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ve had experience caring for dogs of all different ages, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every dog has their own unique needs and routines. When your pup is in my care, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own dogs! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone else. My goal is to give you that peace of mind by making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. It will always be a top priority to keep you updated so you never feel out of the loop. Your pets aren’t just another booking to me, they’re family, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own!🐶🤍 As a military spouse, I have a very flexible schedule and am fortunate to have plenty of availability for pet care. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend walks and visits, and I can often be flexible with last-minute scheduling when needed. My open availability allows me to give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve without feeling rushed🐾 I make sure my pets get plenty of exercise and attention! We go on frequent walks and visit the dog park every day since we don’t have a backyard. I love giving them treats, taking them on car rides, and making sure they’re happy, healthy, and loved.

“Austin has been an absolute blessing during a time of emergency after I broke my wrist. Whenever I've needed help, he has been there without hesitation, and I truly can't express how much that has meant to me. I have a huge Great Dane, Apollo, who is only a year old and full of energy. Austin has been incredible with him. He is patient, caring, reliable, and clearly has a natural connection with dogs. Apollo absolutely adores him, and it's obvious that Austin genuinely cares about his well-being and happiness. Seriously, Austin is a rockstar when it comes to dog walking. Knowing Apollo is in such capable hands gives me complete peace of mind. I couldn't be happier with the care and attention he provides. Thank you, Austin, for all of your help and for being so wonderful to Apollo. From both of us, you deserve 5,000 stars! 🌟🐾💙”

About: Hey I’m Dayana! I’ve always loved animals, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My goal is to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I have a 6-year-old Pit Bull of my own, so I’m very comfortable handling larger breeds. I’ve also done basic training with my own dog, so I’m familiar with reading body language, recognizing stress signals, and adjusting my approach based on each dog’s needs. I do work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule and can often adjust my availability to fit your needs. I also have access to Fort Bragg, so I’m available to care for pets both on and off post. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your baby is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! 🐾 I do work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule and can often adjust my availability to fit your needs.

“She really helped me out of a bind when I had no one to let my 6 month old puppy out of her kennel for a pee and water break during the day while I worked my 12 hour shifts for 2 days. I could tell by the second day that Ellie recognized Colleen, and not only that was excited to see her again! Colleen really took care of my puppy, was patient while she sniffed everything and anything on their walk, made sure she pottied and had a drink before putting her back in her kennel for the rest of my shift. Great experience! Both for me, and for Ellie too. 10/10 would recommend, and would book again :)”

About: I have been trusted a magnitude of time to support families on trips watching their pets daily. I sent pictures and updates when I am there watching pets. Being in the military, I have days where I can come home early and I am there to support my pets needs and I most of the time give my dog a full of attention I make sure that their pets feel loved that they go on multiple walks a day to get out of the house and stretch out. I also make sure that they are well fed and hydrated.

About: I have 10+ years of experience in animal care; dogs, cats, farm animals, and to little critters. My experience includes feeding/watering, long/short walks, bathing, litter/puppy pad changing, and some medication. I approach each pet differently as they are all uniquely different.

During the week I’m available after 5:00 pm, Friday’s 1:00 pm. If my schedule changes I will always keep you updated.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. Growing up I was around breeds such as Labradors, Cocker Spaniels, Chows, German Shepards, Poodles and Lhasa Apsos. The first time I became a dog mom was to Zoe, a Bichon Frise. I lived in Chicago at the time in an apartment so I had to walk her multiple times a day. Bichons also need a lot of maintenance with their fur, so I’m very familiar with grooming methods of that type of breed. After Zoe, I became a dog mom to a Pit Bull/German Shepherd puppy, Garner. I got him when he was 8 weeks old and had him for 13.5 years. I understand the level of care a puppy needs as well as a senior dog. I’m also very familiar with handling large breeds on a leash. I understand how a pet is part of the family and I will show your dog lots of love and affection, just like I would my own. I am available Monday-Friday 8am-2pm then from 6pm-8pm. I’m available 7am-10pm on Saturday and Sunday. Please contact me if you need help outside of those times and I can try to work with you. I’m not able to keep your dog in my home, but I will always make sure your dog is safe in your home. I will always follow your safety protocols.

I’m also Dog and Cat CPR certified, so your pet’s safety is always my top priority.

As of right now, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week. I’m currently between jobs while waiting to begin graduate school in the spring, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Toward the end of August, I’ll begin substitute teaching, but my availability will still remain flexible outside of school hours. Whether your pet needs daytime visits, overnight care, or weekend attention, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities.

I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love while keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I've been around dogs all my life. My grandparents were breeders for Scotties, Cocker Spaniels and Terriers. My personal pets have been Velvet a cooker spaniel, Tobby a shepherd/lab mix, Doobee a shepherd/collie mix and my current cohort is Harley a 50 lb mixed breed rescue from texas. I have completed over 18 months of weekly training with Harley culminating with AKC canine good citizen certificate. What i learned from that experience was the importance and significance of consistency. Additionally that I am trained to be as consistent as possible in providing the type of care that you prefer for your pet. I'm retired so I am usually available anytime and can do same day appointments. I'm usually up before 6am and keep late night hours also so please feel free to contact me anytime. I have a fenced yard and can easily crate your pet if needed. I have one pet friendly dog at home if your pet likes company. I do not have any children living at my home.
