Dog Walking Starmount Forest

About: I have always had a dog growing up but rescued my own dog, almost 7 years ago and trained him from 1 month old. The experience intensified my love for dogs and training them! I am used to going on walks, potty training, and feeding schedules as well as accommodating quirks (my guy can be weird so I get it lol). I work full time from home so as long as I have notice of when I am needed it should work seamlessly in my life. If pet sitting at your home I want to keep your dog as comfortable and on routine as possible. I am well versed in all sorts of quirks so just let me know and I can adapt to whatever your pet needs. I will be diligent about following instructions and will give lots of attention and affection while you are away.

About: I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter since March 2024. I have experience walking all sizes of dogs from Bernese Mountain dogs to an 8 week old pug. I’ve worked with deaf dogs, a dog that was post-op for an ACL tear, and administered medicine if the pet required it. If you have a reactive dog, I may not be the best fit for you, and that’s okay! I have experience with dogs that are reactive to cars, but I prefer not to work with dogs who are reactive to other animals. I started doing this for a little extra cash & exercise when I’m not touring as a full-time stand up comedian. (It’s a real thing. I promise you never have to hear my jokes, but your dogs probably will at some point during our walks.) If you need a weekday dog walker, I’m your gal! You will also have ample notice for any time that I am traveling out of town for shows as my tours are booked the year prior. I had about 10 consistent weekly clients in Pittsburgh working with a business called Happy Tails, but I just moved to Charlotte so I’m looking for new clients! I’m available most weekdays. Weekends are tougher and will depend on my schedule from my full-time job, but I am open to weekends as long as I am in Charlotte. I am very serious about the comfort and safety of your pet. That means I will take the safest route possible (paved sidewalks with low traffic if possible), provide water, and clean up after them when they potty to keep your neighbors happy. I am happy to follow any guidelines you have for caring for your animal. I am also open to doing a trial period with your pet to make sure that we are a good fit for each other.

“Brea's professionalism and work ethic is 5-star! She was prompt and kind to our fur family. I will be more than happy if she will accept more work from me!”

“Weiying is great! She has walked my dog many times now and is always responsive and prompt and even available on short notice a couple of occasions.My hesitant dog has really warmed up to her!”

Sherry M.

“Super cool fellow. Was on time, walked and took care of my crazy pups without any issue. My furry babies loved him after knowing him for less than an hour. I will definitely work with him again.”

“Morgan has been great!! We asked for her help while i get acclimated to the day to day caring for our newborn and our dog since my husband has returned to work. She is always on time and is ready to go on a walk the moment she walks in the door. She’s no fuss, and her priority is getting the dog out the door right away. Our dog seems to love his walks because he has started waiting for her at the door/window for their walk in the morning. We get cute photos from every walk they take. If you need a reliable, pet loving walker, Morgan is a no brainer.”

“Hands down the BEST! Sarah is professional, on-time and she is great with Haiti. I can say having a Cane Corso you will be nervous if the person can handle their strength. Sarah was great book her!”

About: I’ve had French Bulldogs my whole life and also fostered large dogs during college, so I’m comfortable with all breeds and temperaments. I’m calm, patient, and confident handling everything from stubborn walkers to energetic pups. My goal is to give your dog safe, fun, and enriching walks so they return home happy and relaxed. I work full-time from home, which gives me a flexible schedule—perfect for midday and afternoon walks! I’m available for dog walking during lunch hours and most weekdays after 2 p.m., and I’m happy to work with your routine. While I don’t offer boarding, I’ll treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own. I prioritize safety on every walk, pay attention to your dog’s cues, and will follow all instructions you provide. You can count on me to show up, communicate clearly, and care for your dog like family.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have experience caring for pets for friends and family. I’m patient, dependable, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I love taking photos and keeping owners updated throughout the day, so you always know your pet is happy and safe. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away! 🐾❤️ I work full time, but I’m able to take breaks throughout the day to make sure your pet is cared for and attended to. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how they’re doing! I make sure every pet is in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions you provide, while giving them plenty of attention, love, and care. If your pet stays with me, my apartment complex dog park is right across from my home, making it easy to give them plenty of exercise and playtime.

“She was great! Let me know when she got there, how the walk was and sent me a picture. I already booked more sessions. Thank you for taking care of my pups.”

About: As long as I have lived I have been surrounded by pets of all kinds. Namely cats and dogs, but also guinea pigs, ferrets, chinchillas, snakes, hamsters, fish, and others. Even since moving out I still regularly care for my friends and families pets. This has given me experience in taking care of pets in all stages of life, from newborns needing potty training to seniors needing medication. I work from home, and most of my work day is hands off letting some coding scripts run. So this gives me a lot of flexibility and time in my day that outside of some select meetings I can focus fully on your pet. If allowed to work in your space I can make any schedule of your pet's needs work. This allows me to always be available to your pet, and combined with my extensive experience in taking care of pets with specialty needs I feel confident in my ability to provide the best possible care.

“Kristena is this patient, flexible and knowledgeable. She has the same breed of dog that I have and she’s giving me great insight on bear. When Bear returns home from the walk, he is so tired that all he can do is lay on the floor, which I appreciate very much. Since our chronic migraines and other health issues, I really appreciate all that Kristena how interacts with Bear.”

“This was my first time having someone walk my Nova girl and I was very impressed with Cerys’ communication and ability to connect with Nova so quickly! It was such a relief coming home from a long work days to a happy pup. Thank you, Cerys!!”

About: Hi, I’m Megan, a recent college graduate who just moved to Charlotte who loves spending time with animals. I work part-time and my hours aren’t consistent. I could be working morning, night or midday shift, but I am available for pet care before and after work, on weekends, and on holidays. I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, as my family has always had dogs and my nana has also groomed them. I’ve had plenty of experience helping take care of them, from feeding and walking to playing with them and bathing them (even though it’s definitely not my favorite). Growing up around dogs has also taught me that every dog has their own personality and energy level, and that some need a little more patience and attention than others. I’ve also had a cat of my own for the past three years, so I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I genuinely love spending time with animals and would treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and care that I give my own. I’d be happy to keep them company, play with them, follow their normal routine, and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away! I currently work part-time, but my schedule changes from week to week, so my availability can vary. I’m happy to work with you ahead of time to make sure I’m available when your pets need me. I’m especially flexible for house sitting and can discuss specific dates and schedules with you! I’m not currently able to board pets in my own home, but I’m happy to provide house sitting in your home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep your pets’ routines as consistent as possible, and make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away.

“Maria did wonderful walking and playing with my sweet girl! I have a senior pet and she was very easily able to adapt with her to fit her needs. Will definitely be booking again in the future!”

I carefully follow each client’s instructions and routines to make sure their pet receives the best possible care, attention, exercise, and companionship. I also respect every client’s home as if it were my own, keeping things clean, secure, and well cared for at all times.
