Dog Walking Saint James

About: Hi! I’m Kayla! Highly rated pet sitter, Vet Tech, Zoology Graduate & Owner of Furever Together Pet Care 🐾 Thanks for stopping by! I’m proud to be one of the top-rated sitters in the region with over 100 five-star reviews on Rover. Quality, communication, and pet safety are always at the center of what I do. I’m a veterinary assistant with 3 years of veterinary experience, and the owner of Furever Together Pet Care, my licensed and insured professional pet care business serving Brunswick & New Hanover Counties. I’m proud to be one of the top-rated sitters in the region with 98+ five-star reviews on Rover. Quality, communication, and pet safety are always at the center of what I do. I graduated with a degree in Zoology and have worked hands-on with a wide range of animals, including exotics, at both the Greensboro Science Center and the NC Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh. This background helps me confidently care for pets with unique needs, medical considerations, or specific routines. While I am readily available, in cases where I am not, I also have two amazing assistants, both trained veterinary assistants based in Wilmington and Leland, who help cover sittings when I’m booked or when scheduling gets busy. No matter who visits your pets, you’ll always have someone experienced, dependable, and animal-obsessed taking care of them. While my primary focus here is everyday pet sitting and drop-ins, I also offer wedding-day pet care through my business (happy to share more if you ever need it!). When I’m not caring for pets, you’ll find me at the beach with my dog, volunteering at a cat sanctuary (The Ruffian Foundation!), or curled up with a good book. Animals are truly the center of my world, and I’m grateful to have built a life and career surrounded by them. I’d love to meet your pets and care for them like my own! 💛🐶🐱 While I am readily available, in cases where I am not, I also have two amazing assistants, both trained veterinary assistants based in Wilmington and Leland, who help cover sittings when I’m booked or when scheduling gets busy. No matter who visits your pets, you’ll always have someone experienced, dependable, and animal-obsessed taking care of them. Flexibility of time windows (morning, mid-day, evening and night) are important for scheduling with other clients and driving times. Exceptions to this are medication administration that must be done at certain times. Your pets will receive detailed care with me! Your animals will receive food, water, any special medications/treatment, love and attention, walks, and playtime! I can accommodate any special needs you have. I have the ability to safely secure your animals in your home and secure your house as well.

“Maegan did a great job with our girl! She walked her at Scout’s pace and has such a good attitude toward her! Thanks Maegan- see you soon!”

“Erin has been amazing with Gabbie! She took the time to stop by and familiarize herself with her and made her feel comfortable. Additionally, my requests to walk Gabbie were very last minute and she took no issue with that and communicated in a timely manner. If you need your pup walked, you should absolutely consider Erin first.”

About: I have cared for pets my whole life. Starting at a very young age with neighbors and family pets. My love for pets grow every day. I help humane society and other animal charities as much as possible, as it pains me to see ANY animal go unloved or cared for. I am reliable and loyal to all of my fur baby friends!🤗 I currently work for myself as a cosmetologist/hairdresser/makeup artist. So my schedule is very flexible. I have a lot of time to fill in between clients and days off and I look forward to you committing myself to your pet needs! I currently do not have a place to provide pet care at home but will be happy to meet your pet needs at your home or in your neighborhood for walking! I do drive so I can drive to dog parks as well!

“Hannah was awesome!! Came at the requested time frame and loved on our pup for us!! Do not hesitate to book her!!”

About: Hi! I’m Danielle, a stay-at-home mom to our beautiful baby girl. Before parenthood, I worked at a veterinary clinic specializing in fear-free handling, surgeries, emergencies, grooming, and advanced medicine—giving me hands-on experience with all kinds of animals, from dogs and cats to reptiles, small mammals, birds, and aquatics. We recently said goodbye to our beloved dog after a battle with cancer, and the quiet house has me excited to open my schedule for caregiving. With my vet background and a passion for compassionate care, I provide a loving, low-stress experience tailored to each pet’s needs. As a full-time mom, I’m home during the day to offer plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and enrichment. I prioritize meet-and-greets (completely free!) to ensure we’re a great match for you and your pet before any booking. Whether your dog needs medication support, post-surgery monitoring, or just lots of cuddles and fun, I’d love to care for them like family. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I work from home, therefore I am free 24-7 to help take care of your animals and help meet your needs while they are in my care. As of now- we only own cats. We recently lost our dog to cancer. I believe animals thrive best in a structured environment. We keep a consistent schedule for our pets, feeding, play time and whatnot. I do ask that your pet is friendly with children.

About: Years of firsthand experience have equipped me with an innate understanding of dogs' needs, behaviors, and preferences, enabling me to create a nurturing and engaging environment for my furry visitors. Working from home allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine, ensuring that my furry companions receive ample attention and care throughout the day. With a flexible schedule, I can prioritize regular walks, play sessions, and feeding times to meet their needs. Whether it's taking short breaks for cuddle sessions or incorporating outdoor activities into my lunch break, your pup will never be far from my side. What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my extensive experience coupled with the ideal setup of a fenced-in backyard and my loyal canine companion. My backyard serves as a safe and stimulating space where dogs can play, exercise, and socialize under my watchful eye, enhancing their overall well-being and enjoyment during their stay. Having a furry companion of my own adds an extra layer of comfort and familiarity for visiting dogs, fostering a sense of camaraderie and companionship that sets my dog-sitting service apart from the rest.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and even a pet lizard. Being around animals has always brought me joy, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with love, patience, and attention. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or companionship, my goal is to help your pet feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! Pet care fits really well into my weekly routine! It is something that I genuinely love doing and am very passionate about. My schedule is incredibly flexible which allows me to be available for walks, drop-ins, and other care throughout the week as needed. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow their normal routines and pay close attention to their needs so they feel relaxed and at ease.

My goal is to build trust with both pets and owners so you feel confident and worry-free while you’re away.

About: I’m available most days to play and care for your animals. I’d love to take them running, playing, and of course to snuggle them! You can expect that I will love your pets as if they are my own. I haven’t had a pet in about three years (my doggie of seven years unfortunately got sick and passed) so I’m looking to ease back into having a pet by doggie-sitting a bit before I commit to a full time furfriend. I’m very entergetic so I have no problem taking on your active pets but I also like quiet time and movies for your more laid back animals. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have! I’m currently working part time and travel on weekends so I have a pretty flexible schedule to play with your pup! If I’m traveling in gone most weekends, and if I’m working it mostly afternoons. At this time I am not doing boarding but I like to ensure that your pet feels safe with me in your home while house sitting by doing a visit prior to the booked stay.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7. At 10 I walked dogs for my parents friends and neighbors. I love dogs and cats! I’m retired and wanted something to do that I enjoyed. I love animals and would love to spend more time with them and exercise with them! I have fenced yard my home and two fur babies that love company. I can crate if that’s what what you prefer we will keep them company so they won’t feel alone.

About: I am a second year medical graduate student at Northwestern University, currently applying for residencies for prosthetics and orthotics. I have a golden retriever of my own and have taken care of dogs since I was in high school. My grandma as well as my fiancé‘s grandparents are here in St James and I am looking to help take care of your four-legged friends while finishing up my last semester of school. I am happy to take your pup on sniff walks or walks for mileage and will make sure they have the best adventure they can :) I can also watch your pet in your home and stop in throughout the day to make sure they are happy, comfortable, fed, and exercised. I’m happy to provide references of dogs I’ve been a dog walker for and dog sat. I can also provide the name of grandparents here in this neighborhood who can speak to who I am. I look forward to fun times with your pets! When I was in high school I started watching my soccer teammates' dogs while their families were away on trips. From big dogs to small dogs, I love going on walks/runs at the park, playing in the backyard, and even afternoon cuddles. I am new to Rover but not new to pet care! Most of my availability is in the mornings and afternoons for walks and/or jogs with your four legged friends! I have a pup of my own that I care for daily as well! I have a four year old yellow lab and a two year old golden that are sweethearts and love to play with other friendly dogs!

About: I may not have years of professional pet sitting/dog walking experience, but I do know what it means to love and care for a dog every single day. I have my own two pups who I walk and play with several times a week, and I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and happy. I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine care to every animal I meet. I’m a homeschooled student, about to graduate, so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available most days from 7 AM to 7 PM. This allows me plenty of time to give your pets the attention, walks, and love they need throughout the day. When I visit your pet for walks or potty breaks, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, dependable, and always pay attention to their needs, whether that’s extra playtime, fresh water, or just a little love and company. You can trust me to treat your pup like my own.

About: Growing up at home I had cats and a dog. I can't imagine a home without Pets. 7 years ago my family adopted our dogs Max and Lola. I have many years experience caring for cats and dogs and would be honored to care and love for yours. I'm currently between jobs and have plenty of time to watch and care for pets. My schedule is very flexible and open weekdays amnd weekends. Based on your preference we can agree to a personalized schedule. Relax at home, walk on the beach, playing at the dog park or in your back yard.

About: Over the years I've had experience with all stages and ages of pets, especially dogs, but also including horses, chickens, fish, guinea pigs, bunnies, cats etc. I've raised and cared for my own pets from puppies to elder dogs, special needs to the most energetic (or anxious). I've taken in some willful and anxious fur babies that have thrived and became amazing loyal, obedient and loving companions. I have also been blessed with 4 amazing grown kiddos that have pets of their own and I get to care for them often and its the best!! Most of my/my families pets have been rescues but we've also had/have several pure bred Animals (Long-haired German Shepherd, Newfoundland, Maltese, Blue Pittie). I like to make sure the fur babies get lots of love and exercise, but its also okay if your pet is a bit more stand-offish. I truly appreciate when pet parents leave information about routine, pets personality and preferences and will follow instructions meticulously. Special needs, medications, puppy care, etc are also welcome (of course!!). Feel free to ask any questions...look forward to chatting and meeting you/your fur babies. I am an empty-nested Mom and Mimi with my kids' families being spread around CO, NC, TN, GA, STX so I travel to see kids/grandkids/family...a lot...and I love it. This gives me the flexibility to do house sitting/pet care around those visits (in some cases, I've done sits near my kids as well and check both boxes, pet care and visits with the fam). I'm looking to pet/house sit almost full-time around family visits. I'm also VERY open to traveling to pet sits outside my home base area, overseas as well. I lost my little Maltese "Smiles" a few years ago and have poured my snuggles into my kid's 6 dogs. With my travel schedule its hasn't felt like the right time to add a new pet to my personal life so getting to love on my families' pets and those that I sit for really helps fill that void. I only care for pets in your/their home. I am primarily looking for overnight sits, but will also be available for walks and drop-in care.
