Dog Walking Southpoint

About: Hi, I’m Ashling! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with a Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier, spent my teenage years as the go-to neighborhood babysitter and pet sitter, and today, I’m a proud pet parent to two wonderful Wheatens of my own. ​Because of my personal experience with dogs of all backgrounds, I understand that every animal is unique. My philosophy is to always meet animals where they are at—building trust at their pace while providing a safe, confident, and structured environment. I'm currently accepting weekday appointments for now and will accept some overnights and weekends. I have a flexible schedule at this point and will be able to care for pets multiple times throughout the day and night. I will treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect and try to follow the schedule and routine to make sure your pet is comfortable in their home while you're away. Their safety and comfort is my highest priority.

“I have had my sweet little dog for over 15 years. No one has walked her except for family members and the people at doggy daycare. She is also deaf and partially blind. So I was extremely nervous to have somebody else walk her. But this was perfect! Leandrea did a great job with Jolie! She was on time, didn’t mind Jolie dragging her around the condo building several times, and give her kisses. It was wonderful to hear and to see Jolie happy and excited in all the pictures.”

About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs of many different breeds, and loved them all. Let me help out with your pet and they’ll probably like me too! Currently I have sporadic trips planned until I start classes at the end of August, then my availability will greatly differ but I’m not sure of the exact hours. I can’t care for pets in my home due to one of my cats being very unfriendly, but I will take great care in your home if necessary!

“Vanessa has been walking my dog regularly for several weeks now and I couldn’t be happier with her help. She’s been very patient and loving with my dog, flexible on the schedule, and provides great walk reports and pictures. Thanks, Vanessa!”

“Mary has been so helpful and supportive the last two weeks. I had a couple of deaths in my family and Mary was able to walk my dog and check in on her when I had to fly home for a funeral. She’s so sweet and thoughtful and it was so great to know my pup was being so well taken care of! She’s the best ❤️”

About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter. I provide the exercise, affection, and midday relief they deserve. I treat every pet like they’re my own. Currently I’m working part time only on the weekends, so I have all the time during the week to care for your pets! Mornings, afternoons, and nights. My pets live the best life in my home! In your home trust me I will care for them as my own. I will follow whatever instructions you give me.

About: No kids or pets of my own and a big Jeep means my outdoorsy lifestyle is open and flexible for your fur babies. I'm experienced with dogs from all walks of life, from your social butterflies to your shy guys, your runners fetchers swimmers and wrestlers, you name it, I'm down for it. I have confident experience with reactive dogs and big breeds especially. I'm a part time barista, working mostly evenings, so morning and mid-day walks work best for me. I am available for night walks after work as well, if that works for your schedule. Weekend boarding is best with advance notice, as I occasionally pick up Friday and Saturday shifts at the coffee shop. I live on the second floor with access to a fenced in backyard. Hardwood floors in home. No kids or other pets of my own. I do have houseplants if your dog is sensitive to soils, fungus, or has a history of plant eating. Crating is an option I'm comfortable with if that's what helps your furry friend feel safe, though my ideal set up is to share my whole space and enriching lifestyle with your pup, or to visit them in their home where they're already comfortable. I'm mobile with the Jeep as well, so we don't have to stick to my neighborhood if your dog is reactive and needs some extra space.

About: Hello! I am an animal enthusiast! I grew up with a dog, and currently have two cats. I love all animals, but dogs and cats especially. I am hoping to be your go-to for reliable, caring, dog exercise. I understand that dogs are our furry family members, and I will look after your dog like they are my own! I'm an educator and I have all summer to ensure your dog gets great exercise! Very flexible weekday scheduling! Please contact me, and I am sure we can easily find a time that works. I have my own transportation, so driving to your furry family member to walk them in a familiar neighborhood is no problem! I can drive to you, go for a stroll, and then return them home ensuring that they have all their needs met before leaving.

About: I am new to Rover and looking forward to providing the best care for your loved one. I have worked with dogs through shelters and personal pet sitting for family and friends. I am new to Rover and work part-time with animals. I am available for pet sitting, walks and drop-ins during the weekends all day and with some flexibility during weekdays. We can discuss boarding on a case by case basis. I will follow the owner's guidelines and treat your house and pets with respect. I use a common sense approach to safety and will stay vigilante when spending time with your loved one. I believe in clear communication and am happy to update you as much as needed. Thank you allowing me to help relieve some of the petcare duties for your dog or cat. My personal goal is to keep your pet comfortable and happy while you are away!

About: What sets me apart is my hands on experience as a dog foster, which has given me the ability to care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to new routines quickly and helping pets feel safe and settled in a new environment. I provide calm, attentive, in home care where pets are treated like family. I focus on keeping their routine consistent, whether that includes feeding schedules, potty breaks, crate time, or extra play and attention. I’ve cared for both high energy dogs who need structure and exercise, as well as more anxious or relaxed dogs who need a calm, comforting space. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, loved, and at home while their owners are away and to keep owners updated so they can feel at ease. My schedule is flexible, I work part time and I’m able to provide consistent care throughout the day. I’m typically home most of the day, so pets get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. I can adjust my daily routine around the pets in my care and make sure their needs are met on a regular schedule. I provide care in a calm, clean, and pet friendly home where safety and comfort are the top priority. Pets are supervised throughout the day and are never left unattended for long periods. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and any specific instructions from the owner. I introduce pets slowly into my home to help them feel comfortable and settled. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and all outdoor breaks are always supervised. Inside, pets have a cozy, relaxed environment where they can rest and feel at home. Pets are welcome on furniture if that is allowed by their owner, so they can stay as comfortable as they are in their own home. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, especially during the adjustment period. My goal is to create a safe, low stress, loving environment, and I provide regular updates so owners always know how their pet is doing.

“Alexis was very accommodating right from the beginning! Not only was she able to fit me in the same week while meeting my dog prior, but she made sure to let me know when she was arriving to my apartment along with sending a picture at the end. I would definitely recommend and plan to use her again!”

About: My name is Karina and I've owned and cared for cats my entire life. While I've always wanted to add a dog into my family, my father is allergic. However, I never resist mingling with dogs whenever I can! I'm very experienced with caring for cats, including feeding, cleaning the litter box, etc. I am so open to home visits to check in on dogs as well as walk them. Outside of animals, I'm a pharmacist! Additionally, I love to travel, go to new restaurants, and cozy up with a good book. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have! I do work full time (~ 11 hour shifts) so an animal who would need 24/7 care may not be the most ideal for my schedule, however I do have consecutive days off pretty frequently. I will listen to you and your wants/needs and how you care for your animals. I know some owners love to keep their dogs in the crate when they're away, and I would do the same.

About: My unconditional love for all animals. Every cat or dog that I meet I treat and cherish as if they were my own fur baby. I do work a full time job, 8-4 Mon-Fri. However, I am looking to use some of my free time taking care of your fur baby! I do my best to maintain whatever routine you have with your fur baby. I am willing to go the extra mile to make your pup feel safe and comfortable while you are away.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so I understand how stressful it can be to find someone to take care of your pets while you’re away or even just gone for the day at work. Our pets are the whole world to us so it’s important you find someone you trust. I hope that once you get to know me I can be that person for you! I have over 13 years experience as I have been around animals my whole life. I love learning their little personalities the things they love whether it’s going for a walk and they have a specific fire hydrant they always stop at or a specific toy at home they always love to play with. Currently I have a cat named Stella who has provided me lots of experience in anxious cats as well as in tricks on giving medication. I am currently a substitute teacher with the summer off so I can provide pop in visits throughout the week as well as the weekends! Safety of pets is my number one priority with your pets as well as my own. I will always care for your pet like they are my own when I am with them to ensure they have adequate care. I will get to know your pet and notice when things may seem off if they aren’t feeling well. I also maintain safety when walking with your pet and making sure to learn their temperament before walks as well.

About: I have 2 1/2years experience with dog care as well as experience with puppies. I can potty train, crate train, basic recall training. Experience in med administration. I'm good with physical activity and cuddle bugs I am available for walks & drop ins after 4pm during the week and anytime on the weekends. Im available to pet sit any time as long as pets can be alone for few hours while I'm at work. I can pet sit during the weekend full days. When caring for pets in their own environment, I prioritize consistency and respect for their routines and the client’s home. I maintain the pet’s normal schedule for meals, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I provide companionship and stimulation while keeping the home secure and tidy. I send regular updates with photos or notes so owners feel confident and informed. For pets with medical or behavioral needs, I carefully follow all instructions and monitor for any changes.

About: I’m 24 and have worked with over 5 animal shelters and have pet sit for many friends and family over the last 10 years. I’m familiar with providing medications and attention to older animals. I have done all kinds of visits and just want to help fellow animal parents in need. I have one pup at my apartment, his name is Eddie and he’s a wiener dog and beagle mix. There’s a park in very close walking distance for exercise. There are stairs for my apartment so if your dog is too big for me to carry up it may be uncomfortable for older animals. I hope to train and help animals for a living someday and I’d love to play with yours. Willing to fulfill special requests.
