Dog Walkers in Rocky River, NC

“Julie is FABULOUS! She offered to do a Meet & Greet beforehand which I loved. She is super sweet and our foster pup immediately took to her! (He even tried to follow her out the door as she left.) She took excellent care of him, and I have no doubt she treats all her clients like her own. If we need someone again- Julie will be our go-to!”

“Kim was so great taking Indie on walks even when she’s such a big, reactive dog. I was out of town for a week and I came home to Indie being just as happy and healthy as when I left. Thank you, Kim!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was little. Anytime my family or friends need help with their dogs, they come to me. I play sports and go to school. But when I'm not doing that I have plenty of time to take care of your little/big angel. I have a dog of my own that that yours can play with. Space inside and in the backyard where they can run and play.

About: I have experience taking care of my dogs for over 6 years now. I love my dogs and I hope to take care of many other doggos just the same way! Pets are family and I believe in providing the best care and creating a happy safe environment for them. Currently I work as a Registered Nurse allowing me to have a flexible schedule so I have morning, afternoon and evening availabilities. I am also available for last minute sittings if needed, that is not a problem! I also provide house sitting care as well! I have a dog of my own who is very friendly and always looking for friends to play with. When caring for pets in a client's home or at my own home, I always follow any specific instructions provided by the client or outlined in the care plan. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have clean water, and that their living areas are kept clean and safe. I also ensure they get attention and comfort. I’m mindful of safety—for both the pet and the client—such as avoiding trip hazards or messes. If I notice anything unusual, like changes in behavior or eating habits, I report it promptly. I understand that pets are part of the family, and I treat them with the same respect and care.

“Marilyn was great with my dog and followed all instructions! We will definitely be using her services again.”

About: Hey, I’m Doug. I’ve had dogs my whole life and can’t imagine it any other way. I’ve owned and loved several different breeds over the years, and right now I share my home with a big, lovable German Shepherd and a 16 year old calico cat who has a lot of sass and attitude. I’m also a dad of two, and while my kids are in school I’m looking to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy. I love being outside, going on long walks, throwing the ball, and ending the day with plenty of snuggles. I’m very responsible and take pet care seriously, but I also try to keep things easy and fun. I’ll always keep you in the loop with updates and photos so you know your pet is happy, safe, and getting lots of attention. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like they’re part of the family, I’d love to help out. I’m primarily available on weekdays between 9:00 am and 6:00 pm, which lines up well with mid day check ins, drop ins, and visits while you’re at work. I’m also available some evenings, depending on the day. I can probably work with your schedule, just message me! I’m a parent of two, so I focus on providing reliable care during school hours and select evenings when I can give your pet my full attention. If you have a schedule question or a special request, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to talk through what might work best. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I try to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I know how important familiarity is, especially when their people are away. I follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding, medication, litter box care, playtime, and any little quirks your pet might have. I always make sure your home is left just as I found it. Food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes are scooped, and I do a quick check to make sure everything looks safe and secure before I leave. I also spend time with your pet based on what they’re comfortable with, whether that’s playtime, gentle attention, or just calm company. I’ll keep you updated with notes and photos so you know how things are going and can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel confident that both your pet and your home are being well cared for.

“Kim took great care of my dog while I was away for a weekend. She cared for Indie like she was truly her own. She kept me updated and was flexible and timely. I recommend Kim highly for dog walking!”

“Halle is our dog’s absolute best friend! Ever since Halle started coming to walk her during the week, Pepper has immediately become so well behaved and happy! Halle is quick to answer if I have any questions or requests about pepper, and she gives her the same love we do! I couldn’t recommend anyone more than Halle! Thank you!!!”

About: I’ve cared for pets of all kinds my entire life and truly treat every animal like my own. From playful pups to cuddly cats, I focus on creating a safe, loving, and stress free environment while you’re away. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, reliability, and the genuine bond I build with each pet, because they deserve more than just care, they deserve love. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my day around visits, feedings, walks, and check ins, making sure each pet gets reliable, consistent care and attention. I’m flexible and organized, so I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs while keeping everything running smoothly. “I care for pets by following their normal routines as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress free. In a client’s or even in my own home, I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean spaces, and plenty of attention, playtime, or walks depending on their needs. I’m very respectful of each home and focus on giving pets consistent, loving care so they feel safe while their owners are away.

“Absolutely amazing I wouldn’t trust anyone better then her!”

About: I have a wide range of pet sitting experience, from house sitting a small senior dog to walking a huge dog with lots of energy! I have a lot of free time in May and would love to take care of some pets! Availability is wide range and I don't mind last minute requests. I care for pets in their home by meeting their needs with exceptional care and attention to detail. I can evaluate how the pet is responding to me and whether they want space or cuddles.

“Rachel was great with my dog Chance (60 lb Husky/ lab mix). I recently visited the Charlotte area and brought Chance with me. I was very nervous as I had not used Rover before and we were far from home. Rachel texted the day before to confirm, which put my mind at ease. Chance loved Rachel immediately. She was kind, loving and patient with Chance. She had excellent control over him on his walks and made his safety top priority. She was a strong communicator who gave us updates and pictures. If I ever return to Charlotte and need a dog walker or sitter, I would definitely rebook Rachel. I highly recommend her! 5 ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ from me and Chance!!!”

About: I own 3 small dogs - very sweet and they get along well with other dogs. They are all updated on shots and are on heart-worm/flea/tick preventatives (Revolution). I ask that all dogs that stay in my home are also up to date on shots and preferably on some sort of flea preventative as we go outdoors often, weather permitting. I have owned and cared for a diabetic dog and can give shots or other medicines if needed. I work full time from home so they are able to have frequent potty breaks along with being able to roam free inside my home. I’ve had pets my entire life; rabbits, cats, hamsters, birds, dogs, etc. I love animals and they will be well cared for - I will treat them like they are my own. I have a half acre fenced in yard with shade available for them to run around and play! We also have 1 indoor cat. I have two children but they do great with animals. They love to help with their care and are very loving to all animals. I have several crates and pet beds or you can bring your own if that makes them more comfortable. I always suggest bringing special treats, toys, or blankets to help make their stay easier. I can also take care of cats as well or any other small pets! Please ask any questions you may have! Thank you for your consideration. Working from home makes your pet feel at home with someone almost always there. If they are crated it’s only at bedtime if that’s their normal routine. I have a large fenced in yard. My Pomeranian is young and energetic and loves to run around with visiting pups! My girls are super laid back and mostly like to observe. They have free roam of the downstairs area.

About: Growing up my Grandparents were AKC German shepherd and Cocker spaniel breeders. I've been helping groom, care for and raise dogs since I learned not to eat the dog food lol. I worked at an animal hospital for a few years as a receptionist and enjoyed shadowing in all areas of the hospital including the boarding facility. I have experience with reactive dogs and am fairly good at reading body language. I say fairly good because all dogs have their own cues that can be more or less noticeable than others. I am proficient at giving medicine when needed whether injection, pills, or liquid as well. I have two children whom I homeschool and may occasionally need to bring them with me. They are well behaved and know to never mess with someone's things and how to interact with animals and respect their space and take their lead if they are playing with them. If this is a problem just let me know and the needed arrangements will be made. I do not watch in my own home as we have a small home. I am happy to come to your home and follow all instructions on how your pet is to be cared for.

“Reliable and professional”

About: My step-dad is a vet and I worked with him at the animal hospital from ages 11 to 26. We have a 66lb Berniedoodle (Preemo) and a cat (Guru). We have a big yard to play with dogs outside. It’s not fenced so dogs only go outside when supervised. I also trained aggressive dogs in the mountains of Mexico (Guanajuato) so they could get adopted instead of put down. I work during the day Mon-Fri and my wife mainly works from home so our pets aren’t rarely alone. I prefer to spend all day outside or at the park so dogs will get plenty of exercise. Our dog and cat love each other and everyone they’ve ever met. Our house is big and we have a lot of property to play fetch and run around.

About: Im home full time so endless attention for your pet. Ive grown up with dogs my entire life & love to care for them. I own 3 dogs. 1 small maltipoo male dog & 1 small yorkie female. I own 1 45 pd pit bull mix female who is very friendly and not dog aggressive at all. I love to play outside with the dogs whenever possible. Im comfortable with pretty much any breed of dog as long as they are kid friendly. I live in a great dog friendly neighborhood for me to walk & exercise the dogs. Your pet will be treated as family in my home. I love puppies and the energy they bring. The dogs will have free roam of the house while I'm at home & will stick to the schedule you have for them as much as possible. For everyone's safety if and when I do leave to run errands I do crate all animals. You will need to provide your own crate along with food and water bowls. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby. To help me plan my day and provide the best care for all guests, please limit requested drop-off and pick-up times to a maximum two-hour window. Shorter time frames are greatly appreciated, as broad windows spanning several hours can make scheduling difficult. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation! I work from home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and exercise throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to ensure they receive consistent walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of love—from morning potty breaks to evening wind-downs. 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their usual routine as closely as possible. In my home, pets have a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of supervision, playtime, walks, and attention throughout the day since I work from home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to stick to their feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special instructions so pets feel comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I also provide lots of affection and updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.
