Dog Walkers in Tuxedo, NC

About: I’ve always had a soft spot for animals and take genuine joy in meeting each one. With years of personal experience caring for multiple pets, I enjoy learning their individual personalities, routines, and quirks so I can provide thoughtful, attentive care. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with pets of different ages and temperaments. I focus on making each animal feel safe, understood, and at ease; I treat every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I work part time restoring homes, which gives me a flexible, self-directed schedule. Pet sitting fits naturally into my day, and I’m able to plan my work around each client’s needs to ensure consistent care, attention, and reliability. Being self-employed allows me to adjust my availability, accommodate routines, and spend quality time with each pet. I’m looking to fill my spare time with something uplifting and rewarding, and caring for animals is both personally fulfilling and a priority I can fully commit to. I focus on each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while in their home by maintaining a calm, consistent environment and following all care instructions closely. I respect the client’s space and ensure doors, gates, and potential hazards are secure at all times. I provide attentive supervision during visits and keep pets engaged with appropriate play, feeding, and rest based on their needs. I’m also happy to provide frequent check-ins with photos and updates on mealtimes, playtime, and naps. If there are any additional requests or special instructions, I’m glad to accommodate them to ensure both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident.

“I am so glad we found Ashlee. She arrived on time and immediately connected in a lovely way with my pup, Murphy. I was able to accomplish my errands with my mind completely at ease. Ashlee is kind friendly capable and experienced. I highly recommend her services.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I grew up working on farms and had a grandfather as a veterinarian where I would help care for cats and dogs. Throughout high school and college I worked at horse stables, kennels and other veterinary hospitals as a vet technician as well as volunteered at local animal shelters. I am capable of administering medications and efficient at reading dog and cat behavior as well. I own a lab mix and cat of my own who I have efficiently trained. I also look after many neighbor’s dogs and cats. I am also a long distance runner and like to stay active so I am perfectly fine going on long or short distance walks and exploring new areas here in the mountains. With my extensive experience and knowledge growing up surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes and working as a vet tech I feel like I would be a perfect sitter for your fur baby! I have availability on Mondays anytime and can be flexible throughout the week and weekend. I also have a car and do not mind commuting to the surrounding areas of Hendersonville. I have availability during the day as I tend to be up early in the morning and stay up late. I have a very wide open yard that my pup as well as my boyfriend’s dog love to run around and play in. I am comfortable crating dogs if needed and I take both dogs on long walks as well to keep them active and healthy but also have comfortable lazy days lounging inside if the weather isn’t decent.

About: I’ve been animal-obsessed for as long as I can remember 🐾💕 I’ve worked with animals most of my life and currently work at a veterinary clinic in Brevard, so I have tons of hands-on experience with all kinds of pet needs. I’ve been pet sitting for 7 years, starting out helping friends and family, and I’ve been so lucky to have it grow through word of mouth into something I truly love doing! Caring for animals truly makes me so happy, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—spoiled, loved, and well cared for! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to check on your babies! I can do early AM, lunch and PM visits! I also live within 5 minutes of Downtown Hendersonville so I’m easy and convenient! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take great care to create a calm, secure environment and follow your instructions closely. I also love keeping you connected while you’re away—expect regular photo updates and I’m always happy to do FaceTime check-ins so you can see your pet happy and safe in real time!

“We were gone for the weekend and Mallory was wonderful with our 2 pups! They are usually crazy and destructive when we leave but they loved Mallory and behaved so well! Would highly recommend for pup sitting and walking.”

About: Each animal is a new friend and I’m here to help their whole family! I’ve been pet/house sitting for friends and family for more than 8 years. I appreciate how each animal is a special individual and enjoy getting to know each one. My length of stays have ranged from 1 day - 2 months. If you choose me, I like to visit/meet prior to my sitting to make sure it's a good fit for all and help your fur baby get to know me with you present. No pressure if your schedule doesn't allow for it, it's not a requirement. Thanks! I work part-time on a flexible schedule week to week. Allowing myself to be open to bookings and then adjust my schedule around confirmed bookings. I’m respectful, detail oriented and adapatable. I adapt my caring service to meet the homeowners routine/needs. I want to minimize the disruption to the pet’s normal routine and keep a happy home for the pet & parent’s return.

About: I have taken care of pets since the 3rd grade, when my family got our first dog (a golden retriever named Butterscotch). I have been told that I have a calm energy. I also have an attention to detail and a love of the outdoors. I am happy to go on long walks. I look forward to meeting your animals. At the moment, I have a standing commitment from 8am to 5pm Mondays and Tuesdays, but I am otherwise free to walk, feed, and take care of your animals. I have a fenced-in yard whose fence was partially crushed in the hurricane, so I would prefer housesitting or walking at or near your home (though I could board if needed).

“Justin is great with animals. He is reliable and easy to work with. I trusted him immediately, and so did my two dogs. I highly recommend him.”

About: With over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I provide dependable, attentive care you can truly feel confident in. I grew up with dogs and began professionally pet sitting at a young age for family, friends, and neighbors. What started as helping loved ones quickly became something I genuinely love and take pride in. I am comfortable with everything from high-energy puppies to senior dogs and pets with special needs. I have experience administering oral medications, monitoring behavior changes, and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. Whether your dog needs structured walks, enrichment activities, calm companionship, or consistent routines, I tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and secure while you are away. I am a full-time college student with a flexible schedule and also work with long-term clients outside of Rover. Because I value providing attentive, unrushed care, I do ask for advance notice whenever possible. I am typically available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on the booking. If you have specific timing needs please reach out, I’m happy to coordinate when possible. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your animals and your space with the highest level of respect. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain cleanliness, and ensure your home remains secure. You will receive consistent updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pets are doing. Whether your pet requires medication, extra patience, structured exercise, or quiet reassurance, I focus on creating a stable and comforting experience.

“Everything went beautifully! So glad I found Robin. Will contact her again soon.”

About: Hi everyone! I am a huge animal lover. Growing up, I was surrounded by dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, and chickens. When my friends and family started having me babysit their pets for long periods of time, I realized I loved spending time with the dogs, getting exercise, and being outside. I love what I do. I am a stay at home mom/ college student. I have my own 8 month old puppy who is my baby girl. She LOVES other dogs and is ready to play!!. I am available 7 days a week, on short notice, for long durations, and multiple times a day. I will work with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. They must be friendly towards males, other dogs, and children. I can not wait to meet you and your loveable furry friend!

About: I have grown up around animals all my life and I love being a pet parent. I enjoy fostering needy animals, especially seniors. I also work at the Humane Society and I am pursuing my degree in Veterinary Technology. I currently work part time at the Asheville Humane Society. Working part time allows me plenty of time to drop in and care for your babies. I have experience working with animals and will show them all the love and affection as if they were my own babies. I will help them feel comfortable while their humans are away. I have experience working with all different types of animals and I love to help them come out of their shell.

About: My name is Emily and I recently just moved to Hendersonville, North Carolina. I was a full-time dog & cat sitter while in school at Texas State University in Austin, Texas. I also was a farm manager before I had my daughter. We moved to North Carolina for my husband's job & to be closed to family. I have experience with training dogs, caring for livestock, & more. I love animals & hope to have a farm of my own someday. I'm currently working part-time at the student farm! I'll have plenty of time to care for the pups and kitties. 😸🐕. We'll have fun, haha! What the owners wants / request always comes first, even if it's just backyard play. I treat all animals if they were my own. Haha.

About: I've always had an affinity for animals and an easy time winning their trust. They have amazing instincts! My daughter is involved with animal rescue and is cheering me on. Through her and from sitting for friends, I have experience with dogs and cats of varying breeds, backgrounds and behavioral traits. I am often called upon when my friends need a sitter so figured I may as well go rover with it. Hi folks. I am currently in Spain working as a language assistant and am looking for a housesitting arrangement in the Asheville/Hendersonville area for this summer. I will only charge a fee if there is a pet involved. Otherwise, I think it is a fair exchange. The website forces me to charge at least $15 but we can work around that. Please let me know if you think I may be a good fit for you. I am unable to offer the service of caring for pets in my own home as I am in a transitional period and only available for the summer. I greatly value your home, pets and your trust and behave accordingly.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was 5 years old. I have experience with various breeds and sizes. There’s not a dog I couldn’t love. I currently have two dogs whom I love very much and are always up for playing with other dogs if given the chance! I’ve been around cats my whole life but never had the opportunity to own one. I currently work at a vet and have lots of experience handling both canine and feline friends. I’m currently working full time but I’ve been making time to care for my canine and feline friends when their parents need. I’m usually open as long as it’s within my schedule/area. My yard is NOT fenced in. My girls know their boundaries. I do have a big yard with plenty of room to play and go potty. I am able to walk the dogs on leashes if needed. The same goes for my clients in their homes. I try to keep to a canine/felines schedule as much as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child and cats since I was in my early teens. I have taken care of various sizes of dogs and cats, numerous breeds and special accommodations included. I have given special diets, medicine, long walks, put into crates, and nearly everything else imaginable. I’ve always felt a special connection with animals since I got my first dog at 4 years old and wish to spread that connection to all I currently have a full time job M-F, I am available for check in before, during, and after work as well as more long term care on the weekends! I am flexible in what times I can stop by I assure to stick to the pets specific schedule, i am able to crate a pet if necessary and administer any specific request from the owners. I personally have a dog with health issues and anxiety and understand the importance of consistency and fulfilling the needs of each specific fur baby.
