Dog Walkers in Tarboro, NC

About: Hey! I’m a lifelong animal nerd with 20+ years of hands-on experience — dogs, cats, fish, farm animals… you name it. I’ve done everything from basic care to grooming and handling special needs pets(Diabetes and administering chemo meds). I also have a soft spot for rescues — I’ve taken in more than a few over the years, including cats, dogs, and even birds. Yup… parrot/wild bird experience too. My home is basically a safe-haven full of spoiled, happy furballs and feathers. If you’re nervous about leaving your baby with someone new, totally get it. I’m always happy to chat, send pics/updates, and answer questions so you feel good about who’s caring for your pet. Whether your pet needs walks, cuddles, meds, or just someone calm to hang with while you’re away, I’m here. Reach out any time — I’d love to help. My days revolve around my pets, I work from home so I have availability to be here or there when needed, before my full time job starts up I have even more availability! All my animals are free roam, I have a large fenced in yard, all my cats love all my dogs and vice versa. My house is pet friendly and designed for safety and ease of loving and protecting all my babies.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs every since I was a child. From helping neighbors, friend and family care and love on their babies to owning my very own house full of fur babies. My husband and I foster cats and dogs with a handful of amazing rescues, we have been doing this for 5 years now and have accumulated a few “foster fails.” The last year we have primarily fostered newborn puppies or litters with mom included. Youngest animals I’ve cared for were 3 week old puppies and our oldest dog right now is 16 years young. I’m currently between travel assignments so I am home full time! I have a completely open and free schedule to help with your animals needs. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 pups to keep your dog company! All my dogs are up to date on vaccines, crate-trained, temperament tested, and socialized through day care. My house is also large enough where I have been able to section of an area as my foster dog/boarding area, that is completely separated from my dogs crates.

“Kristen has a wonderful personality and made me and Gye, my 1 year old Akita, feel secure about her services. Nothing but good vibes. Her knowledge of greeting him, and handling him worked very well. She was extremely flexible, responsive and professional in our phone, text and email conversations. She followed the protocol left for her with no problems at all. I highly recommend her and will look to connect with her again. Thanks Kristen!”

About: I've worked in a nursing home and coached youth sport camps throughout my young adult years. I grew up with dogs and I now have two of my own; a 4 year old mini-cockerpoo, who is very playful, friendly, and submissive, and a 2 yr old Australian-labradoodle. I live an active lifestyle and am very affectionate so you can find us at the dog park, on walks/runs, or all cuddled up together! I am available for services every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, usually with 3 days notice. I am very active and like to bring my own dogs to the dog park almost daily, so I aim to prioritize and maximize their activity needs. I live in a house with long leash extensions for my dogs to play in our spacious yard (working on a fence soon). I aim to take them to the dog park daily and they are very playful, friendly, submissive, active, and cuddly so I can take him on both the small and big dog side. I am very engaging, energetic, loving, and caring so I like to give my all to the dogs and create a fun and safe environment for them to exert all their energy and cozy up to me when they’ve got nothing left.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. From hand nursing, administration of medicine, to helping them recover after surgery. I love and respect animals and their owners. I want to provide any service I can to make a pet or owner’s day easier! I work part time from 2-6 on week days. Other than those hours, I will be able to commit every moment to your pups or cats. I have a fenced yard that is big enough for running laps, trees and plants to smell, and plenty of squirrels to entertain your dog. I have two loving pups of my own, a black lab and a 40lb rescue mixed breed. I can let them socialize or keep them separated up to your standards. My home is baby proofed for a 2 year old, so the dog can not get into anything that a toddler can’t! I have a large size crate available in my home for your convenience.

About: We live with two beautiful pups and grew up with both dogs, cats, and even horses and livestock. Our experience with all is plentiful. Pets especially love our friendly nature, kind voice, and active lifestyle for a robust playtime. My husband and I currently work remotely full time, which has given us the ability to pet-sit for friends and family locally and even in different states! When I lived in NYC I walked up to six dogs at a time for about a year. We have a fenced yard for playtime, a sidewalk and dog park for walks and playtime. There is no food or trash to accidentally get into as everything is made to be pet safe.

About: I have always loved caring for animals and treat every pet like a member of the family. While I don’t currently have any pets of my own, that allows me to provide your dog with my full attention and a calm, comfortable environment during their stay. My home features a secure fenced-in patio with pet-friendly turf for outdoor time, and I’m fortunate to have a large dog park directly across the street as well as another dog-friendly area within my neighborhood. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I can tailor their care to their individual needs. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I have also volunteered with animal shelters, giving me a strong understanding of dog safety and behavior. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I would be honored to provide reliable, attentive care for your dog. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am currently a nursing student and stay at home mom. This allows me to give your fur babies my full attention and lots of love and interactive play! I believe every pet is happiest when their normal routine is maintained as closely as possible. Before each booking, I take time to learn about your pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, and any special instructions. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, potty breaks, and a clean, safe environment. Dogs have access to a fenced-in patio with pet turf and can enjoy walks or trips to the nearby dog park if approved by their owner. Cats are provided with a quiet, comfortable space, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and enrichment activities tailored to their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I follow all care instructions carefully, provide regular updates and photos, maintain feeding and medication schedules, clean up after pets, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection while their family is away. My priority is always making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, for the past twelve years. My family has always had pets, so I was always getting hands-on experience from the puppy stage up to the senior stage. Currently, I am a college student and I take online classes, so as of right now I have a free schedule. I can do walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, as well as overnight stays. I live with my parents, and they have two dogs that I take care of while they work. We live in the country, so our yard is not fenced in. When I visit my clients' homes they usually have fenced-in yards, and their pets are normally in crates or kennels.

About: I have always grown up with dogs and cats in my house. I’ve been an animal lover my whole life! I’ve pet sat many times for friend and family.

I work as a paramedic and work 24 hour shifts. However, I only am on shift 6-8 days of the month! This makes my schedule fairly open to help out. My schedule does change every month but I can get my schedule ahead of time so I can plan your care needs ahead of time. Please reach out to see if I am available! My baby, Bear, is fairly spoiled with love :) He gets cuddles most of the days when I am off but also is very well trained. He gets lots of play time when I am off and gets to go on many many walks. I plan on treating your babies the same! However, if you have specific rules for your pets I will follow those as well. I am a firm believer in respecting boundaries and routines with your pets. I promise to do my best to keep them happy, healthy and well loved.
