Dog Walking Ridgecrest

“My dogs loved their lengthy walk with Thomas today. He also gave them plenty of time for potty breaks & pets along the way. I appreciate how reliable he is & all of the communication + photos. I highly recommend him to care for your fur babies too!”

Paige K.

“Savannah was great through and through! She was very communicative and prompt with both the meet and greet and the dog walks and made sure that our boy felt comfortable and at home with her. Looking forward to booking again!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and cared for them for the last 4 years. I am 19 years old and extremely active, I love runs and long walks and playing with all types of pets. I’m responsible and will take very good care of your pets. Im currently working part time and have plenty of time to check in and stay over to care for pets. I work some nights and am usually back home before 8. I live and work by two simple rules, treat your house as if it were my own and to leave everything better than I found it.

“Grayson is SO great with Tela! They took to each other right away. Thanks so much for your help and Tela can’t wait to see you again!”

“We are very happy and would highly recommend Matthew and this app to anyone! Both my dogs warmed up to Matthew immediately and were happy to see him every time. It has been a huge relief to know there is someone close by that we trust.”

“Alex is highly recommended by us and our dog, Duncan. Before finding Alex, we have never trusted the care of our dog or house to anyone. We can’t tell you how thankful we are for finding Alex!”

Kristine S.

About: I have experience fostering & volunteering at an animal shelter, walking dogs, pet sitting, house sitting with dogs & cats. I love spending time with all kinds of animals. I've owned fish, dogs, cats and chickens. My schedule is different every week. I am usually available in the morning before 9am and in the afternoon after 4pm. If I have the day off, then I'm free whenever you need me! Making sure your pets are safe and have all the essentials including fresh water, food, treats, playtime, exercise, walks, cuddles is my top priority. Your fur babies will get all the loving and care they need! They'll be in good hands :)

“My dog has a lot of separation anxiety, and Kristen was amazing with her. The communication, photos, and updates made such a difference, and I felt completely at ease knowing Rosie and Pete were loved and cared for. They’re my babies, and I’m so thankful to have found someone who understands that. Thank you!”

About: I have experience caring for goats, chickens, horses, hamsters, fish, dogs and cats. I love meeting new animals and providing whatever type of care they need. I currently work at a restaurant Thursday through Sunday but should be able to provide care every few hours around my shifts on those days. Monday through Wednesday, I am free all day except for a few hours on Tuesday evening. I make sure to follow the safety instructions provided by the owner while also keeping the environment fun and comfortable for the pet. Very open to playful animals!

About: I can handle any dog (or cat!) big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, counter surfers, etc. I have 8 years of pet and house sitting experience, as well as 8 years with my adorable pittie, Mushu. I’m able to cater to a wide variety of pet needs, and I’m level-headed and competent in emergencies. I’m a college student with a pretty spread out schedule, so I never have more that 3 hours blocked out at a time. Most of all, I love playing with furry friends - and I’m quite adept with a frisbee. I’m a student, so my schedule is fixed but leaves plenty of time for some W-A-L-K action. Daily Availability: 8:30AM-9:30AM 12:00PM-1:00PM 4:00PM-8:30PM Additional Availability: Monday, Wednesday: 1:00PM-2:30PM Tuesday, Thursday: 2:30PM-4:00PM Friday: 1:00PM-4:00PM Weekends: All Day I have experience house and pet sitting for 6 different families. I always make sure to leave with laundry done and everything very clean, and I can take care of household tasks (watering plants, taking in mail, etc.). I have a car that is welcome to all varieties of furry friends, in case of a requested dog park visit or an emergency. I’m great at keeping routines in place and making sure that nothing is out of the ordinary while you’re away. Lots of cuddles, walks, scritches, treats, and playtime!

About: Need someone to Love and spoil your pet while you’re busy or on vacation? I love getting to hang out with fur babies and making sure they get all the attention they need. I’ve been a dog owner most of my life and couldn’t imagine it any other way. I do work elsewhere but am great at planning and organizing a schedule to make things work as often as possible. I am very flexible with special requests and understand that dogs are not just animals but part of the family and deserve to be treated as such. I’ll be glad to answer any questions you may have for me!

About: I have two cats and a dog who mean the world to me, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I would treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in nursing school full time, which has strengthened my responsibility, patience, and compassion when caring for others. While my weekdays are busy with classes and studying, I’m available for evening and weekend pet care and would love to spend that time giving your pets the attention, comfort, and love they deserve. In my home or my client’s home, I care for pets by following their usual routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection based on their personality and energy level. I’m mindful of any specific instructions from the owner, including medications, special diets, or behavioral needs. I also keep their space clean, make sure they have a calm and stress-free environment, and give lots of reassurance so they feel at ease while their owner is away.

“Caitlin took great care of my baby and was always a clear communicator! I will definitely be rebooking and would recommend this sitter for your pups.”

About: I've been pet sitting privately for over eight years and added energy healing (BioEnergetic Synchronization Technique) to my repertoire for animals and people in 2023. I'd be happy to direct you to my personal site for testimonials or share some of the 50+ five-star reviews I've amassed on other platforms. Animals take to me very quickly, and I absolutely adore them! I have many regulars who reach out to me before anyone else because they feel complete peace of mind when I am with their pets. I know how important that is and love to provide that with an abundance of photos and updates. BEST energy work helps heal physical issues, as well as emotional challenges, like separation anxiety. Please note that while I love and do B.E.S.T. with all animals, at this time I am generally only accepting live-in pet sitting requests with cats. I do much of my work remotely, and even my most food-forward feline regulars allow me to focus fully when I'm holding a session. Most of them even curl up right next to me. Due to the nature of my remote energy work, I am only accepting cat sits at this time. They tend to love my work as much as my play! I stick to whatever schedule and routines the animals are already used to, unless otherwise requested. I am very sensitive to animals' needs and catch on very quickly if they need anything.

About: I have always loved and cared for animals since I was young. I have taken care of my own and other people's fur babies. I love when my friend's pets get excited to see me because I equally share their joy! Dogs: I have always loved dogs and had at least 1 since childhood until a few years ago sadly. The automatic baby voice comes out when I see and talk to a dog. I have found myself spending more time with the dogs than the humans at gatherings sometimes and I appreciate those moments. I love all breeds and sizes! When seeing a new dog in passing, I ask each owner if it’s okay for me to “say hi”/pet their fur baby because all are different with different personalities and life experiences. I tell my kitties often that they will have a canine sibling soon! Cats: Currently a cat mom of 2, the stars in my pictures! I was ignorant of cats until I found my own. I listened to many behavioral podcasts along with my research to understand their uniqueness, and now I deeply appreciate and understand wholeheartedly the love earned from such individual little creatures. My kitties are my shadows, I never use the restroom alone. They have taught me so much and I love the unique personality that I find in each one of them. I know how important it is to respect their space (especially if they're more standoffish) and ensure they have all their resources, especially when their humans are away! Currently working my own flexible schedule so I can make any time work that your fur baby needs. Some pets are used to early mornings and some are used to late evenings. Whatever works for yours! My kitties eat raw, so I make their food daily and give them specific supplements and treats depending on their behavior and the litterbox situation. I'm in tune with my kitty's behaviors and meows knowing what they're requesting in that moment. When caring for other people's pets, I'm mindful of where we use the bathroom (if possible) and clean up appropriately. No details are too many, I'm very supportive of specific needs and how your fur baby may be familiar with their care.

About: I’m an Asheville native who loves nature and animals deeply. I communicate well & efficiently. Working with animals fills me with so much joy. I happily work with animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, etc. You can rest assured your pets will receive the best care possible each time they are with me. I love being able to help out fellow humans with the awesome bonus of keeping your animals happy & healthy :) I am a mama to a young boy, who is also good with animals. Although, he is in school most of the time. I do not usually come out late in the evenings due to my son’s bedtime, but can make it work if you are located close by. During the day time I have a good bit of flexibility, which allows this job to fit in my lifestyle well. I am currently only offering services at the clients home - I prefer to meet prior so I can visibly see what I will need to do. If this is under shorter notice / a meet cannot occur, please either write or text me a message of any needs, concerns or details necessary to make it the best experience for your pets. You can fully trust that your pets will be happy, safe and well taken care of.
