Dog Walking Sugaw Creek-Ritch Ave

“This was our first Rover walk for Coug. He can be nervous with new people, and Rachel was patient, kind, and understanding of his personality. She communicated well and made me feel comfortable knowing he was being cared for. I would happily book with Rachel again.”

“Amanda has been such an amazing friend to Cosmo. We moved to 4th ward last week and the change was stressful on the little guy. Amanda immediately established a rapport with him and they have great walks together. She is also very punctual and communicates well.”

About: Hi my name is Joseph! I grew up in a veterinary hospital being surrounded by all breeds and sizes of cats and dogs. I have 7+ years of pet sitting experience for NC State Vet Students and Faculty and currently work for a dog boarding and daycare facility in the Noda area. My background has given me hands-on experience with feeding, exercise, enrichment, and providing attentive compassionate care for every pet. I’m currently working Monday - Friday between 7am-11am (break) 2:30-7pm. On Saturday/Sunday the hours move around alittle but I remain to have a 3-4 hour mid day break for the opportunity to have midday checkups/care. My usual Check-in times when pet sitting have been 10-30 minutes before 6:30-7, 20-40 minutes between 11:30-2, and 20-30 minutes after 7:30. Depending on age, temper and health of the dog the visits can be rearranged for later or earlier visits if needed. With the circumstances of my apartment complex, I do in-house visit of my client instead of having the dog at my home. When arriving at my clients home, I like to first take the dog outside and make sure they use the bathroom. I will update the owner immediately if I see any issues with the pets stool (ie. Blood, Diarrhea, etc). After I like to feed depending on instructed time, or if no meal/ walk the dog around the owners yard or complex if possible. Before leaving I always make sure there is plenty of water and that at least one happy photo. Willing to administer medications in pill form. Also, will always follow clients instructions to a avoid any confusion or accidents.

“Lindsey was a great dog walker for my two German shepherds who both have dog/animal reactivity and anxiety. She was extremely receptive to all my concerns and took all precautions needed to keep my dogs and others safe. In addition, she was kind, timely and communicative, all very important characteristics for me to trust my dogs with someone while I'm away. I will definitely use her services in the future.”

About: Passionate pet care professional, carrying years of experience taking care of the needs of animals, especially dogs. I've had a Chinese Crested Powder Puff (aged 15), a Chipoo Chinese Crested mix (aged 17), and multiple Jack Russell/Chihuahua/Shih Tzu mixes. I have some experience looking after cats as well! I am able to take care of pretty much all their essential needs. I can also provide playtime for pets under my supervision. I ensure that they are in a safe space and away from any hazards. I'm good at providing updates, with pictures included, so you know that your pet is doing well while you are away! I have a somewhat flexible schedule. I'm not too busy during the week, so my availability to provide care for pets have been pretty good. I'm very attentive when it comes to pets. You can rest assured that your furry friend will have a safe environment to running around and play in. Multiple pets that engage in playtime with each other will be supervised while under my care to mitigate any aggression that may come up during this activity.

About: I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them is something I love. I took some vet classes in high school that helped me learn the basics! Such as their body behavior, basic handling, and how to administer medication. I also gained some experience with grooming and caring for senior dogs, as I understand older pets need extra patience and attention. I’ve trained my own dog to perform many tricks and sleep on his own, so if you have a puppy I’d be more than happy to show them some basic tricks and commands during our time together. While training takes time I’m always happy to help them learn more and build good habits. I’m currently available to do walks or pet visits in the evening where I can then on a walk or even go to the park and play. I’m a full time student and worker as well so for right now the only days I’m available are Friday and Sundays for boarding, pet sitting, and home visits and need at least a 2 day notice please! I live in an apartment where there is a little doggy park and it’s a very dog friendly environment. Inside my apartment they are able to be on the furniture and be with me at all times. I will be taking them out every 1-2 hours or if you need me to do it more often I would be more than happy to. While they are with me if you have any extra requests to have them be on the bed or keep them in their crate I will be happy to follow that.

About: What sets me apart is my combination of professional veterinary experience and genuine love for animals. I have over three years of experience working in a veterinary hospital, where I learned to recognize signs of illness, handle pets with patience and compassion, and support pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, and caring for pets with special needs or medical conditions. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in caring, capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home as a customer support representative for a veterinary clinic, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. Whether it's morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, feedings, or simply keeping your pet company, I'm able to give them plenty of attention while maintaining their normal routine. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active, making dog walks and play sessions one of my favorite parts of the day. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or simply stopping by for a visit or walk, I'll follow your instructions closely to help keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. With my veterinary background, I'm attentive to changes in behavior or health and understand the importance of careful observation. I'll ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure, provide fresh food and water, clean up after your pet, and create a calm, positive environment where they feel safe and cared for. I also believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates, tons of photoshoots, and prompt communication throughout my visits. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is being treated like one of my own.

“Excellent and communicated throughout all visits with photos. Punctual and took her time with Robie. Very satisfied and happy with her service.”

“Kelly did a great job! She was able to arrange a last-minute meet and greet as I was traveling unexpectedly during New Years and did an excellent job with my two large dogs and 4 cats. She followed all of their care instructions and all of my pets were happy and well cared for when I returned. I am already scheduling my next booking with her, highly recommended!”

“Peyton is great. I was very fortunate to come across him when I was visiting Charlotte for two weeks. He came to my hotel and walk my dog every day while I was at work. He was always on time and left me messages every day. I would definitely recommend him. He provided a perfect no stress service. Thank you, Peyton. Pluto will miss you.”

About: I have grown up with 3 labs in the house since I was 5. My family and I always enjoyed watching after our own dogs and the neighbors dogs! My family has recently taken in my sisters Rhodesian Ridgeback and I love taking care of him when I get to visit home. I have taken care of big dogs and small dogs and cats. I will happily give dogs a bath, walk them, feed them, take them to the beach and more! I currently work from home full-time. I have a flexible schedule for walks, visits and more! I go on a daily walk so happy to include my new friend with me. I would love to take your dog on a walk around NODA/uptown/south end/ any of the greenways! I give them lots of cuddles when they want it and love to talk to the fur babies.

About: I've had dogs since I was a little girl, always growing up with at least two at a time, so caring for dogs has always been a part of my life. I currently have a beautiful Husky named Yuki who is full of energy and keeps me active with daily walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I'm experienced with dogs of different personalities As someone who is home most of the day, I have the time and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care. Your dog will enjoy regular walks, plenty of attention, and a routine that closely matches what they're used to at home. I'll also follow feeding schedules carefully and make sure your pet has the space and comfort they need during mealtimes. I have one dog at home, and your pet's safety is always my priority. If needed, my dog will be safely crated or kept separate during their stay. My apartment community features a private dog park, and there's also a larger fenced park nearby for exercise and play. I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood with great walking areas, and I'll always follow your pet's routine and your care preferences

“Very comfortable to work with. Melani is always punctual. She is very caring and easy to communicate. I strongly recommend her.”

I ensure to pay attention to detail when following your pet care instructions to maintain your pets routine and comfort.

“Jasmine has walked my 1 year old dog for the past month! I'd highly recommend her to other dog owners. She's done a great job (i.e., arriving on time, helping redirect him on walks when needed, sending plenty of updates, etc.). She even remembers to give treats / turn on background noise for him if I forget to when I leave. Jasmine's been a great dog walker and is so kind - looking forward to having Jasmine continue to walk my dog!”
