Dog Walking Sloop Point

About: I’ve taken care of numerous pets since childhood (some of my families, friends, and breeders). I LOVE them all. I’ve had cats, dogs, birds (parakeets, lovebirds, cockatiels), rabbits, fish, and guinea pigs. Have worked as a vet tech and have a very strong family background in dog training and agility as well as a strong interest in veterinarian medicine. I work from home most of the time and schedule is flexible. The weekend we are usually here. Will be able to take care of pets throughout the entire day. Currently, we are in an apartment with first floor access to grass. We do have a fenced dog yard across from us and a larger fenced dog park walking distance within the apartment complex. We have an 8 month Australian Shepherd who is absolutely obsessed playing with other dogs! Has never ever shown any aggression towards any dogs, large and small. If keeping your dog with us, can provide bathing.

About: I have over 10 years of experience with all breeds, especially large ones. Whether it’s daily walks, check-ins, or special needs, I ensure your pet gets the attention they deserve! As a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide consistent pet care throughout the day. I can easily accommodate walks, check-ins, and special needs, ensuring your pet receives the attention and care they deserve while fitting seamlessly into my daily routine. I provide care for pets in your home with the utmost attention and comfort. I follow your pet’s routine, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. I offer regular walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection, treating each pet like they were my own!

About: I have 9 years of experience taking care of dogs, I enjoy that they are happy, I try to give them love, care and protection Currently I can offer this service from 8 am-2pm and at night (depending on what can be agreed) on weekdays, on weekends my schedule is usually longer so I will be able to adapt to the schedule you need. I hope that any change can be notified in time so that our communication is always ideal I know that walks are a special moment for dogs therefore they will always be the leaders, I do not rush them, I allow their sense of smell to be free (with caution), play with them either inside or outside the house and continue supporting if the dog is in training. If your pet is a little crazy, don't worry, I'll be patient so that your pet is happy and safe

“Grace is amazing! She helped me take my dog Booger for a walk during the work day. Not only did Booger have a blast playing fetch and walking down by the pond to collect sticks but Grace sent plenty of adorable pictures and refilled her water bowl. I would definitely recommend working with Grace for any of your pets needs and I’m looking forward to working with her again soon!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for the past 7 plus years. I have two dogs of my own and do have neighbors who have had pets. I have experience walking them, feeding them playing with them and keeping them safe. I take my time with dogs and understand if they are scared. I do have a rescue myself and I understand what it takes to gain their trust and train them. I'm a recent UNC graduate and am now attending OTA school at CFCC. I have classes Monday 8-9:45, Tuesday 12-1:50, Wednesday 11-1:50, Thursday 10-11:50 and Friday 10-12:50! I also work 3 days out of the week but it varies! I have two cute dogs at home, Ginger and Teddy and I tend to them when at home. We have a fenced in yard and they enjoy their 2-3 walks a day. I typically feed my dogs twice a day, in the morning and then during dinner time, they graze throughout the day. I love spending quality time with them, especially playing with them! Both my dogs have gone through training so I completely understand the training process as well.

About: I have been around animals since I was born. I have trained every single one of my dogs since I can remember. I love bringing dogs to dog parks or on hikes if you/ they are okay with it. Animals have always become very attached to me when they meet me so I wouldn't be able to let you or your pets down. I am always very approachable to all animals so that they don't feel as if they're at harm. I wish to treat your dog(s)/ cat(s)/ reptiles/ rodents just as I treat mine and I hope to be able to spend a lot of unforgettable time with them to gain a forever friendship. I also offer kitty services! I have a MaineCoon of my own, who is my best friend of course. My friends call me “the animal whisperer” because even the most anxious animals love and trust me. Can’t wait to cuddle your pup/kitty. I am very aware of COVID and will be sure to leave your home COVID free and clean every surface I have touched before I leave your home while also being fully vaccinated. I currently work Monday- Friday 9-5, I mostly WFH. Some times I will go into office but most likely not during my stay with your pets. As for Saturday and Sunday I can be at your service mostly full time. I am able to crate your dog if needed, and we can go on great hikes if they’d enjoy! I would take any precaution that you have while being at your house for the safety of your animals. I understand how stressful it is leaving your animal with someone else but rest assured I will communicate of any concerns (even the small ones) as that is important.

“I was very nervous about not coming home to take my puppy out during lunch but Andrea has been amazing! She takes my baby out for a walk and plays with her when I can’t be there. She even brought her a new teething toy. I couldn’t recommend Andrea enough!”

About: I've been a devoted pet mom my entire life, and animals have always been my family! I have cared for pet's through every stage of life, including a special-needs puppy who was deaf and had congenital health challenges, as well as pets through their senior years and young rambunctious pups! These experiences have taught me patience, compassion and how important it is to understand each pet's individual needs and personality. When your pet is in my care, I'll love and care for them as if they are one of my own. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my routine. I'm able to accommodate walks, feeding times, playtime, potty breaks and plenty of companionship. Your pet's safety, comfort and happiness are my priority. I understand the trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else's care, and I will treat your pet as lovingly as my own. I'll follow your instructions and their normal routine closely, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection and supervision. I'm patient and attentive to each pet's individual personality and needs.

About: I offer dog walking, potty breaks, and playtime as well as house sitting. I love being outside. I have had dogs and cats all of my life and I am very responsible and compassionate. I treat all pets as if they are my family. If you have a high energy dog I can definitely handle him/her and wear him out! I can also care for cats, fish, rabbits, etc. (no snakes please!) I can bring in mail, take trash cans to and from the curb on trash days, water plants, you name it! Message me for details!! I enjoy walking dogs and letting them out to use the bathroom first thing each morning. If they require constant care I can do that or if they’re fine to do their own thing I can also leave them to that. I prefer caring for pets in the pets home. This is more comfortable for them anyways. Doggy anxiety is a real thing! And when their family is out of town, it’s best to keep them in their own comfortable environment.

About: I’m experienced taking care of both cats and dogs. Neighbors and friends have often relied on me to watch over and care for their fur babies. I’m compassionate. Patience is my best quality. I’m currently working as an artist so my schedule is very flexible. I’m also able to provide a wide range of services from dog walking to overnight care. My schedule is very flexible, making it possible to be there for your pets whenever you need me, whether it’s walking your dog, dropping by for a check-in, staying with your pets overnight, etc. I can be patient with your pets but also give them the love they need.

About: I grew up with dogs as a kid. As an adult I’ve owned 2 dogs for a total of 4 years. The first I had for 3 years and had gotten him from a friend due to PCS. My current is a GSD that I got as an 8 week puppy who is currently over a year old that I trained myself. I currently work about 6-8 hours a day but have a short commute to work so if needed, I am able to check in on pets on a more frequent basis. I take my dog outdoors pretty frequently since he’s high energy whether it be on walks or for play in the yard. At least once a week, I take him somewhere public to work on his socialization and training with distractions. We train pretty frequently as well and have to say he does pretty well so if you’d like, I can assist in anything you’re trying to train. Disclaimer though, I’m not a professional trainer, only dogs I’ve trained are the ones I’ve owned. I live in a house with a pretty large fenced yard. I’m a big advocate for dogs getting activity, whether that’s physical like a walk or play outside or if it’s any kind of mental stimulation. My dog is crate trained and stays in his crate while I am not at home. I would prefer the same of your pet to ensure safety of your fur baby while I am away. Once I’m home, I allow my dog to free roam the house and will do the same for yours. My dog has been around several dogs and cats and is very friendly, social and playful, however, if needed, I have the ability to separate animals that don’t get along to ensure their safety. If there’s any questions on care I provide, please feel free to reach out! I’m pretty flexible and will do my best provide the care your pet is used to/needs.

About: I have four people that I dog and kitty sit for. I just wanted to open that up a little more so I thought I would try this app. I love all kind of animals. I have a little dog of my own and I am keeping my daughters cat until she gets out of college in December. Anytime I’m walking my little dog around the neighborhood and we see other dogs walking I’m usually always interested in meeting their dog and seeing what They are and getting their name so if we see them again. Little things like that are just a joy. I think you would see when you meet me in person you will know I would be perfect for your baby.

About: I have had cats and dogs since I was 3 and I am currently going to school for my Bachelors in Animal Science, therefore I would love to express my love for animals with caring for yours! I am a full time student at NC State but I am graduating in the fall so my schedule is really open right now where I can add pet visits either between classes or after classes. I will ensure that all instructions given to me will be followed completely and if I have an issue regarding the care of the pet(s) I will reach out to the owner immediately.

About: Hey! I love dogs more than anything and would love to take care of your dogs too. Please reach out if you need help on the weekends, I will almost always be free. I am available most weekends at anytime of the day. There is very little restrictions other than a few errands here and there. We can always work around your schedule as well. My pets have a daily routine that I very rarely go against. They are fed, exercised and trained every single day. Their health is more important than anything which is how I would handle your pets as well.

About: Hi! I’m Ally, and I’ve always had such a big love for animals! I previously worked at Dogtopia, a dog daycare, where I spent my days caring for dogs of all different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I was responsible for supervising playgroups, making sure everyone was safe, and giving each dog the attention and care they needed. That experience taught me so much about working with different dogs and understanding their behaviors. I also had to take a course to know learn behaviors and when to read their responses, as well as when to know when they are all types of sick or injuries. I genuinely love spending time with animals and will always treat your pets like they’re my own! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone, and I would love to be someone you can trust to keep them happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! I’m currently a college student here in Wilmington and also play soccer! My schedule is pretty flexible outside of classes and practices i have morning practice that ends at 9 and then only one in person class on mondays. So I have time throughout the week and on weekends to care for your pets. I love spending time with animals and would be more than happy to work with you to find times that fit both of our schedules! I’ll always make sure your pets get the time, love, and attention they deserve! Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priority! With my previous experience working at Dogtopia, I’ve learned how important it is to understand each dog’s personality and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll always respect your space and follow any routines or instructions you have for them. Whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just giving them some extra love and attention, I’ll make sure they’re well taken care of! I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pets are happy and safe while you’re away!

About: ⸻ I have extensive experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and more. I’ve successfully managed households with multiple pets—such as four dogs and a bird at once—and specialize in providing attentive, hands-on care for senior pets and those with medical needs. I offer in-home pet sitting to ensure a smooth, low-stress experience for your pets while you’re away. I pride myself on being reliable, respectful, and fully committed to the well-being of every animal in my care. I’m currently transitioning out of my previous role, which means I’m available full-time for pet care. I’m excited to dedicate my time and energy to caring for your pets with the attention and reliability they deserve! I care for pets like they’re my own, giving them love, attention, and consistency right in the comfort of their home. I go above and beyond to make sure every animal feels safe, happy, and loved—because when I’m your sitter, your pet gets the best.

About: I have taken care of animals for the majority of my life whether that be nursing stray kittens back to health, assembling special meals for my dogs specific health requirements, or pet and house sitting for friends and family members so they could take a well needed vacation. I have always held a deep love for animals and a career where I can be around them all day sounds more like a dream than a job. While not a certified dog trainer I do have experience with training puppies for small tricks such as sit, place, stay, down, etc. and would be happy to teach your fur baby as I take care of them. As a full time student I have a very open schedule with asynchronous classes that allow me to be there when your fur baby requires. I make sure to keep my pets on a regular schedule with grooming, food, vet visits and play sessions so they may have the best experiences as they grow and develope.

“April is awesome. She was easy to communicate with and asked a lot of valid questions in order to provide our dogs with the best care. The dogs enjoyed her company and she gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
