Dog Walkers in Startex, SC

“Since we just relocated from Florida, we were a bit lost trying to find a pet sitter for our morkie. Since only friends and family watched him, we were a very nervous. Mikayla was wonderful and took great care of our little guy. We will continue to use Mikayla.”

About: I have been caring for animals since I was young! Currently in school to be a vet tech! Excited to work for you and love on your animals the same way you love them! I’m currently a stay at home mom so my availability is limitless! Whenever you need a sitter I can be on call or a constant person for you! I treat animals the same way I treat my son because pets are just the same to me! They are family and should be treated with the same respect and love!

About: After growing up with pet dogs and having a draw towards animals of all kinds, I have learned to see the intelligence and beauty in so many different species, shapes, and sizes! I have had experience both house sitting and coming for regular drop ins. I worked for a short time with a local pet care business called Happy Tails Pet Care, attending drop ins, groomings, nail trims, and boarding pick ups as an assistant for both cats and dogs of all sizes. I would be happy to discuss your pet care needs with you to see if I can help be a solution! I have a very flexible schedule right now and will only be working part time. My availability will work on a case by base basis depending on what you are needing for your pet. I will always try my best to make room in my schedule for clients in need! My goal is to do my best to make your pets feel comfortable with what they are already used to in their daily routines. Each client will be a case by case basis for what they are specifically looking for and needing for their pets, and I will be honest in assessing if I am able to provide the care needed!

“Sabrina did two drop in visits/ walks for us while we were at work. She seemed like she bonded with Belle very well and Belle loved her. She got to give our pup the hour of a potty break and attention she needed when we couldn’t be there and we greatly appreciated that. We look forward to working with Sabrina again.”

About: I have had pets my entire life! They have always been a huge part of who I am. Not only have I owned many animals, but I have taken care of friends and family's pets as well. I also have experience with pregnancies and newborn puppies. I have provided a few professional services in the past but most of my experience is on a personal level. I am excited to meet your pet/s and to provide my services to make your life easier and keep them happy while you are away! I look forward to becoming one of your fur baby's favorite people!! I am a part time preschool teacher and full time Mom with a 6 year old and a 13 year old but I will work with you to accommodate your needs/schedule the best I can. I am available all week and will work with you on times for drop-ins and/or dog walking. All rules/directions given by you will be followed to a tee. Besides keeping your pet happy and healthy, their safety is also my top priority!

About: If you need a break, send your pets to me! I am an animal lover and used to work in animal rescue. I am experienced with working with all types of dogs (and cats!) and medical conditions. There isn't much I haven't seen. I can give oral medications, shots, and know basic first aid. I love to be interactive with my dogs. We go on trips to Petsmart and Starbucks often, and I would treat your fur baby like one of my own during their time with me! I am openly available for bookings- daytime, evenings, and overnights. Check my schedule for availability! Looking forward to connecting and meeting you and your fur babies! I currently do not offer in-home boarding at my home but I do offer overnight sitting in the safe space your pet is used to. I am comfortable taking the time needed to earn your dog's trust. I will follow whatever routine and guidelines you give me to make your fur baby's time as comfortable as possible.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. My family and friends had pets but it wasn’t enough! I convinced my parents really young to get a dog and since then, I’ve taken care of and trained 3 dogs of my own. Friends and family that get pets often ask me for advice. I have a very nurturing personality and it translates well with animals, so I absolutely love them! I have experience training and basic grooming/bathing! I work remotely so I am home and available to take care of your furry friend :) I will ensure that I know your animal’s temperament/likes/dislikes in order to make both of us comfortable! I’m very attentive and know how to distract/entertain needy animals (from experience haha). I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a spike that goes into the ground that is secure and has a long leash. Other than that, I have a dog friendly neighborhood that we can take walks around!

About: I've had cats and dogs in my home my whole life. Being recently retired, I would love to spread the love to other furry friends! I'm recently retired and do some part time work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available pretty much any day or time of day. I currently have a 12 year old Husky/Pyrenees mix dog so I am comfortable with both young and older dogs. I have had animals of all ages.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of personal attention and care I give to each pet. I take time to learn their routine, quirks and comfort needs so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I have experience with both tiny puppies and kittens feeding bottles. To senior pets who need a little extra patience and gentle care. I’m reliable, attentive to detail, and treat every animal like my own—making sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and comfort no matter their age or energy level. While working part- time at D6 teaching. I take on a few side jobs, I am a nanny, house sitter and decal maker have more free time and availability! I have one dog and three outdoor cats. I also have a large fenced in backyard with lots of room to play and make themselves at home!

About: I’ve had animals, my entire life, cats, dogs, horses, birds, even small critters, and I think they make life better. I know how to care for animals, I’ve raised puppies and kittens, and cried when it was their time to go. I have had formal dog obedience training, and I can help your dog learn the basics. I also offer my own home with a fenced yard and a quiet neighborhood, good for long walks. I will give your animal the special treatment that they deserve. The question is how does pet care fit into my daily and weekly routine and the answer is that it’s part of my life every day. My animals are with me all the time and participate in my activities. My life is quite focused around them. In my home, I will treat your pet just as I treat my own. I will make sure that they have exercise and playtime, and can also relax in the sun in my fence yard. And will mind any other special needs they may have. I usually take them outside for a potty every 2 to 4 hours and always provide freshwater for them. If it’s a puppy, I know the drill. As soon as they wake up and right after they eat, it’s right outside to go pee pee. Easy Peezy and I will never leave your dog unattended.

“Awesome with my dog and very communicative. Very nice person. Will be rebooking”

About: I've grown up around dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes, I've never met a pet that I didn't love! Friends, family, and even coworkers have relied on me to watch their animals. I've even chicken sat before! I usually have full availability! I work part time and am usually home, I am flexible and try to work with your schedule 💪🏻 I have my own lovely pup in the home and a sweet kitty as well. I have a common yard and my sweet pup Jackie as well as my kitty Ginger.

About: Hi! Thank you for visiting my profile. About me: I’m currently a stay-at-home mom who chose not to go back to a full time position, as I need a break from nearly 20 years in Corporate Marketing. My love for animals and staying active throughout the day has led me to Rover. I’ve raised dogs and cats all of my adult life. From kittens, puppies, Pekingese, Pugs, to 95 pound Boxers, you name it, and I’ve probably raised it! I’m an active individual, so I love to be “out and about” and enjoy walks - I can do it all while you are away. If you need help with puppy training, or a kitten house check while you’re at work, I will make sure their needs are met and provide companionship. Aside from animals, I love gardening and decorating my home, so I have many projects on my hands to keep me busy through the day. I have a wonderful husband and a 7-year-old who fills my weekends with joy! If you need housesitting, (watering plants, etc.), while you’re away, I will help and will not charge any fees. You can consider me your “house sitter” the next time you go away! As a stay-at-home mom, my son is in 1st grade the majority of the day. I am available pretty much all day and into the evening hours. My days are routine and structured, so I would take the same approach with your pets. Unfortunately, I cannot sit overnight. Making sure your pets have their needs met is my first priority. This includes feeding, walking, and companionship to keep them happy when you’re not around.

About: I have worked with horses for many years, work with animals of all ages, and am going into the vet industry. I have lots of experience with many animals, and am willing to work with almost all temperaments. I am a full time student, but my schedule is quite flexible for the needs of your pet. I am up early in the morning, so early necessities are no problem. I can work with dogs of all ages and sizes, work with most temperaments, and can ensure the safety of your pets when they need care.

“Sara was available on such short notice and really saved the day! I was delayed getting home after a flat and knew my pooch might not make it until then. Easy to communicate with and got the job done!”
