Dog Walking Raleigh

About: I’m a second-year veterinary student at the University of Florida with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have dog sat numerous times for friends, neighbors, and families, including extended stays lasting several weeks. Through veterinary school and personal experience, I’m comfortable monitoring pets closely, administering basic medications if needed, and providing attentive, compassionate care. I understand how important consistency, communication, and trust are when leaving your pet with someone else, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break from veterinary school, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week at all hours of the day to meet your pet’s needs. If you’re looking for a long-term sitter, I will also make sure to prioritize time for your pup during the school year (August–May). When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owners are away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, and staying active or prefers a calmer, more relaxed environment, I’m happy to provide the care and attention that best fits their personality and needs. As a veterinary student with experience pet sitting for extended periods of time, I’m very attentive to animals’ behavior, routines, and overall well-being. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household routines to ensure your pet is cared for exactly the way they are at home. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind. I also enjoy sending regular photo updates so owners can feel confident their pets are safe and happy while they’re away.

“Great person and service”

“Danielle was very easy to communicate with, and we are very grateful for the peace of mind she gave us in watching our dogs while my fiancé and I worked long shifts. I could tell That she truly enjoys interacting with dogs, and from the pictures and texts she sent it was obvious that our dogs were comfortable with her and enjoyed her visits. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again to care for them.”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. From raising playful puppies to providing gentle, attentive senior care, I’ve experienced every stage of a dog’s journey. I’m confident in training, daily routines, and adapting to each dog’s unique needs to ensure comfort, consistency, and happiness. My goal is to offer dependable, loving care—treating every dog as if they were my own. I have two wonderful dogs of my own who receive my daily love and attention, but outside of their care, my schedule is flexible and open. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or quiet companionship, I’m dedicated to giving your pets the same level of comfort and care I give my own. Whether it’s a quick bathroom break in the backyard or full house and pet sitting for multiple nights, I provide attentive, reliable care with professionalism and love. You can trust that every task will be completed thoughtfully, and that your pets will feel safe, happy, and well-cared for.

About: I have a flexible schedule! I am willing to work with you to give your dog the best care possible and make life easier for you! Dogs are welcome on furniture for cuddles and comfort. There is plenty of space inside for them to roam AND a patio/backyard area for fresh air. There is also a dog park in the neighborhood for your dog to play with other dogs if you want him/her dog to socialize. Exercising a dog isn’t always important! I have experience training dogs. I have been assisting in training future guide dogs for the past 3 years. I would love to take in your cute pups even if they are not potty trained; I have experience and am willing to help potty train or any other forms of training you would like your pup to continue while you are away. I am also willing to administer any medications your dog needs during his/her stay. I am here to make your life easier and give your dog the best experience possible! I will play, walk, cuddle, and love all fur babies! Dogs of any age (as long as they have some vaccinations), size, and gender are welcome in here!

“Poseidon had a great time and burned a lot of energy walking with her. She mixed it up well between walks and a visit to the dog park, and gave good reports on the walks.”

“Excellent. Quintin is professional and always caring.”

About: Hi! My name is Isabel, and I am a second year veterinary student at the University of Florida. Before veterinary school, I worked as a small, equine, and exotic animal veterinary technician. I have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and medical needs. With my veterinary background, I am comfortable caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets with medical needs. I understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big deal, so I do my best to make you and your pet comfortable from the start. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers the couch, I am happy to adapt to their needs and routines. I also prioritize clear communication and will keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I am currently working part-time in the mornings, so I have plenty of time to check in on your pets in the afternoons and evenings! I care for pets in their home by prioritizing consistency and individualized care. I know pets feel most secure in their familiar environment, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine (feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, etc). I also take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs to make them feel most comfortable. I treat every client’s home with respect by keeping things clean, following all care instructions, and providing regular updates. With my veterinary background, I am also comfortable monitoring for any changes in behavior or wellbeing.

About: I have had my own dogs and cats my whole life and currently have one dog and one cat. I worked at an animal shelter through high school with all kinds of dogs and cats and am comfortable with pretty much anything they can throw at me. Sometimes accidents happen and it’s ok and sometimes they get scared when new people are around which is totally understandable. I’m very comfortable being patient with any animal who needs a little extra love and understanding. I am currently a full time student and usually my day is pretty open on any day I don’t have class and in between my classes. I have two pets of my own who I get up early to take care of before class and always make sure I’m home to take care of after class. Weekends that I’m not visiting family are usually completely free as well. In a client’s home, the most important thing for any nervous pet will be respecting boundaries. I have a nervous girl dog and girl cat so I totally understand when they are a little hesitant to new people. But if they are sociable and want plenty of love I can absolutely give that too. I am very good at reading their body language and actions to determine what they want or need in the moment and will absolutely respect that their space if they want that.

About: I have been caring for animals my whole life, including having had cats, dogs, fish, and as a pet. I am familiar with caring for older animals that have lost the ability to fully care for themselves, caring for puppies or kittens, and pets with disabilities (blind, or sick etc.). So I am qualified to care for a pet at any age and just about any level of health! I work my own hours at my job and I have no scheduled weekly activities so I am free to come by and help at almost any day/time! I care for my cat at home by spending time with her playing and cuddling when I am free, letting her curl up with me in bed, and having her sit with me while I cook or do homework! In a client's home I would be interacting with the pets, feeding them, walking them to give them good exercise (for applicable pets), giving them cuddles and love, and providing a safe, clean space for them!

About: If you're looking for a truly reliable, adaptable and hard working petsitter - that's me! I'm an honest and simple person - I love spending time with dogs and cats so I'd never cut my services short. I feel very drawn to animals and feel passionate about caring for them so their well-being is my duty and I will care for them like my own. I have worked for a petsitting company for over three years here in Gainesville and 2 years back in Finland before I moved here - working with lots of different kinds of dogs (big, small, energetic, traumatized ones etc) and cats (some very spicy ones). I provide anything your pet needs - energetic walks, cuddles, playtime , feeding, medications etc! I'm not afraid of challenges and will happily figure out what service works best for you and your fur baby <3 I'm a stay-at-home-mom transitioning back to work life this summer. Me and my husband take care of our 7 month old baby boy together as he works mostly from home and has a very flexible schedule. Integrating parenting and work is my number 1 priority so I'm happy work around my clients schedules. I have a big fenced yard, 3 acres of woods and access to lots of trails and a dog park close to our home by the prairie. I'm an outdoorsy person so I love long walks if that's what your pup needs. As a mom of two cats I'm very familiar with cat care - be it fierce playtime, cuddles or respectful distance. With all pets I give them time to feel safe with me and I'm always read their body language to ensure they feel comfortable.

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. Growing up in a dog-loving family, I’ve been around dogs my whole life and am comfortable handling different breeds and temperaments. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced in basic training, medication administration, and maintaining routines to ensure a stress-free experience. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or playtime, I provide personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. Your furry friend will be treated like family! I'm currently only a full-time student, so I have a flexible schedule, making it easy to accommodate pet care throughout the day. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays, I can adjust to your pet’s routine. I live in an apartment community with plenty of grass areas for walking, and I also have my own fenced patio that would provide larger pets an area to sit outside and sun-bathe while remaining safe. I don't have any pets of my own to conflict with your pets. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. In my care, pets are always supervised, and I ensure a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment. I follow pet parents' instructions closely, maintain open communication, and provide regular updates.

About: I absolutely love animals, especially dogs. I’ve raised my own chocolate lab the past 9 years as well as having dogs my whole life back home. I am a graduate student in Gainesville with very flexible class schedule at the end of week and have weekends free! I’m home a lot outside of class time. I live in an apartment complex by myself with the company of my chocolate lab to keep your pup entertained! We go on many walks and to the dog park to get all the energy out.

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and cats (small and large, often multiple at once), and animals tend to connect with me easily. For over 10 years I rescued and fostered cats and kittens, and along the way I also cared for a boa, several birds, a hedgehog, and mice. I’m comfortable and genuinely happy caring for all kinds of animals with patience, love, and respect. At home, I have two cats of my own, Juno (4) and Vesta (3). Vesta needs daily eye drops, so I’m well-practiced in medication administration and comfortable with pets who need a little extra care. I offer drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — consistent routines, lots of affection, and close attention to their needs. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout so you can relax knowing your pet is in great hands. I’m available full-time, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. With years of experience caring for cats, dogs, and other animals, pet care fits easily into my flexible daily routine. At home I have two cats, Juno and Vesta, both comfortable around visiting pets. I’m experienced with medication administration (Vesta gets daily eye drops), dog walking and will keep a calm, clean, attentive environment for every animal in my care.

About: *I have been taking care of pets not only on a personal level for over 20 years but on a professional level as well for 10 years. I have prior experience as a veterinary technician assistant and can handle pets no matter what the situation may be. I have prior experience with senior pets or even pets with special needs. I of course have experience with pets that are full of energy and love to play. And we can't forget about the puppies who need help with socializing and potty training. I can also give baths, ear cleaning and nail trims as well just let me know. *All animals are unique in their own special way, they have things they like and things they do not like, while in my care I can promise that their care will be fitted to your fur babies needs while you are away. *I am always available to give your fur baby all the love and attention they need while you are away. I am available for drop ins, daycare, boarding just let me know the dates and times that you are needing and we can get it arranged. *I live in a house on a secluded 1.32 acres of land along with a large fenced yard. I have 2 small children as well but trust me I have experience with spicy animals as well as making sure safety is a priority. I have 5 friendly dogs that would love to have play dates or I can easily crate or separate my own personal pets or your pets (with your permission) if needed. If crating is not an option my house is set up to where I can keep my personal pets and your pets separated from each other without the need of crates. I also have plenty of toys and even a doggy pool to help keep your fur babies happy while you are away. I offer the option of pickup/drop offs being done but only by meeting outside, I do not want the fur babies to feel like I am taking them away from their owner. Thank you for your understanding and support in this matter! I am currently a stay at home mom. I have two beautiful children along with 5 very spoiled dogs that I consider my own children as well. I have a fenced yard and crates if you are okay with crating. I also have baby gates as well. If dogs need to have separation time that is understandable or if they need to be separated 100% of the time I can have that set up with no issues. Everyone's safety is 100% important no matter what.
