Dog Walkers in Silver Valley, NC

About: I have always had dogs growing up, but as an adult I gained more experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, rodents and reptiles. During my personal time, I research pet body language and health articles as I want to ensure I’m providing the best care possible while staying educated on animal behavior and health. I currently have a senior chihuahua who is 16 years old, and I do everything to keep her happy and healthy. I have professional experience with bathing dogs of all sizes, and have cared for a variety of pets. I am currently providing services on Rover part time based on my work hours as a medical assistant, but this summer plan to open up my schedule and be available nearly every day! I am choosing to offer services at my client's home at this time. I am happy to discuss all requests and rules related to caring for your pet, as I see them as family! I understand how important it is to have a trustworthy caregiver that will take your pets on safe walks, feed them the appropriate amount, and ensure their needs are met.

“You were a Godsend today. Thank you so much. Tyson looks forward to his visit tomorrow ?”

About: Hello!! I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since i was 11 years old! I have been around animals all my life(of all ages and sizes)! I currently have a yorkie and a golden doodle, both friendly with dogs(can be separated if needed)We also have a fenced in backyard for some playtime! My Grandma is also connected with the vets around us! Please lmk what I can do to help with any vacations or just need time. Thank you!! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I spend a lot of time at home and enjoy staying active. Throughout the day I make time for walks in my neighborhood, outdoor play in my fenced-in backyard, feeding schedules, and plenty of attention and companionship. I plan my day around making sure the pets I’m watching are comfortable, exercised, and cared for. On a weekly basis, I maintain a consistent routine so pets have structure, including regular walks, playtime, and relaxation time, helping them feel safe and at home while their owners are away. 🐶🌿 I have a big fenced in backyard with a dog house and heaters and ac when it’s hot out there. A good neighborhood to walk in and also dog crates that rage from small to large if needed for your dog!! I have 2 dogs myself(yorkie and golden doodle) Both good with other dogs!! If needed to put away they can be.

About: I love all kinds of animals, I’m a dog momma to a pup named cookie who is almost 4. Let me take care of your companions while you’re away! ❤️❤️ I am currently not working, and I’m home all day so I have all the free time to take care of your little companions while your away! I have a fenced in yard, and enough love to go around. I would love to spoil and spend time with your pups and take care of them while you are away ♥️

“Danielle was awesome! She arrived on time and was professional. She handled Rockie with care and I felt like he was in good hands. I’ll definitely book her again and she took cute photos of Rockie during his walk.”

About: I have a dog of my own that I love to take walks with. I also love going out and running around with him or throwing the frisbee to him. I have dog-sat for my friend in the past and it went very well. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I am someone who loves to be outside and around animals. This is something that will feel natural and mesh well with my life. I will not be able to care for the dogs at my own home due to my childhood dog living there and jealousy/protectiveness being one of his main traits. Although the clients home would be perfect for me. I like to keep dogs on their everyday routine. For example, letting them out typically whenever they usually go outside. Feeding them around the same time the owners do. I am younger so I love to run around with the dogs. I will play with all of their toys with them. I can also chill out, lay down, and pet the dog!

About: I love dogs and have enjoyed working with them in many capacities since I was a child and formally for over 15 years. I am a Canine Good Citizen evaluator and have spent years training loving companions. I am certified in Canine CPR and First Aid by the American Red Cross and undergo annual recertifications to stay current on the latest first-aid procedures. I also have experience administering both oral medications and injections. Before your pups stay, we have each family fill out a form for their furry companion. This helps us get to know them better in order to make their stay easier. I have no breed preference and are familiar with handling working canines.  Your pup is welcome in our home, and our couch is open to your furry pooch.  However, I also understand there are dogs who prefer to be outside and are not easily accommodated indoors. I also have covered outdoor runs for those families who still need a vacation but whose pups enjoy more fresh air and natural surroundings. I am happy to accommodate each family's preference. No matter what, canines are treated to lots of exercise and playtime. I wake up and start the day off with morning let out. After each group has been let we come back in for feeding. Morning feedings normally allow for 30-45 minutes before letting out again for a potty break. They are brought back in, crated, and pups are rotated out for play inside throughout the day. I let out every 2-4 hours through the day or more if needed. I do have the option to add on trail walks for those who have social canines who are good with other dogs and people (I will not be introducing them to others but it is a requirement to the trail). In the evening we normally do the last feeding at 7 pm followed by yard play and starting to settle in. Last potty break is at 10 pm. Note: Although I am at home full time I do on occasion leave our home to run errands. Your dog can be left alone for up to 4 hours (max). If this is ever the case your pup will always be crated and secure. For your pup's safety They are never given free rein while unsupervised. I take the safety of your furry companion very seriously. Canines are let out for potty breaks every 2-4 hours (or as needed, if required more frequently). I have a fenced-in yard so your pup will be safe during potty breaks. I do not allow companions from other families to play with each other. This is a safety measure. Your pup can be under a lot of stress when you're gone and I want to make their stay as smooth and relaxing as possible. This doesn't mean I will not be playing with your pup ourselves! I love playing fetch, puzzle games, and even tug with them. I do allow for several outings in the house throughout the day so they can get plenty of one-on-one attention inside as well as extra pets. I have 5 acres that are attached to the national preserve. If your furry companion is social and enjoys walks, I have several trails I am happy to take them on upon request (weather permitting). All outings are on leash only.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and animals have always been a huge part of my life. Over the years I’ve cared for pets for family, friends, and neighbors, working with a variety of breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, playtime, feeding, medication administration, or simply some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, and I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training and routines that owners are already working on at home. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind. I believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates and photos during every visit. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently work as a 3rd grade teacher at a private school. During June/July/August I will be home full time since school is not in session and will be able to care for your pets! I will make safety my top priority. I prefer not to keep any aggressive dogs as mine are very friendly and want to play which may make an aggressive animal uncomfortable. Rabies vaccine must be up to date as well as flea and tick prevention if possible to keep all pets safe and healthy.

About: I have always had dogs growing up and got my own when i moved out. I have a 3yr old dog that’s fully trained by myself! I have plenty of free time and flexibility and can’t wait to spend it with your pet! I don’t have very many schedule restrictions and am home a majority of the time. I abide by any rules and schedules you may have for your home or pet! I worry when I leave my own dog, and want to make your time away from your furry friend as comfortable as possible!

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to follow your pet’s unique routine—whether that means daily walks, medication, or quiet companionship. I’m working toward becoming a certified dog trainer, I approach every pet with patience and curiosity. I care deeply about understanding each animal’s individual behavior, needs, and personality, and I do my best to make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently taking summer classes remotely and working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and am available at various times throughout the day. I’m home for the summer and primarily serve Trinity and surrounding areas. During the school year, I attend college in Charlotte and offer pet care services in that area as well. I also have a senior golden retriever who keeps me on my toes with regular walks and fresh air breaks, so I understand the importance of consistent routines and attentive care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your furry friend in your home or mine, I create a calm, secure, and loving environment where they can feel relaxed and happy. I closely follow any routines, feeding schedules, and special instructions you provide to ensure your pet feels right at home. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with kindness, patience, and lots of love. You can trust that your pet will be in safe hands, with regular updates so you always know how they’re doing

About: I’ve been working hands-on with animals for over 5 years and am currently a professional dog groomer, so caring for pets is truly part of my everyday life — not just a side job. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs, and I always prioritize safety, patience, and comfort. I have special experience with senior dogs and understand how much extra care, gentleness, and awareness they require. My own dog and his brother are both 13 years old, so I’m very familiar with age-related needs like slower mobility, medication anxiety, and knowing when a dog just needs calm companionship instead of high energy. Because of my grooming background, I’m especially attentive to body language, stress signals, and subtle changes in behavior. I’m comfortable with dogs who may be nervous, sensitive, or need a slower, more reassuring approach. Whether your pet is playful or prefers a quiet environment, I adapt my care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I treat every pet as if they were my own and aim to provide reliable, loving care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I already work hands-on with animals as a professional dog groomer. Caring for pets before and after work, as well as on days off, is something I’m very used to and genuinely enjoy. My schedule allows me to give pets consistent attention, timely walks or drop-ins, and calm companionship rather than rushed visits. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, and preferred activity levels. I’m especially mindful of stress, body language, and comfort—particularly for senior dogs—so pets can settle in and feel secure. I keep a clean space, offer plenty of supervision, and adjust care based on each pet’s personality and needs.
