“Morgan was a rockstar with our boy Smokey! He can be a handful at times but she enjoyed it and took good care of him. She sent updates and communicated well. She even allowed us to visit before the drop off day for a meet and greet! He was very happy and healthy upon our return and we plan to use her services again!”

“Brianna was wonderful from start to finish…from our meet up for a meet and greet to when we picked up Ranger today! Brianna sent us updates with pictures and videos and was very responsive during Rangers entire stay! She even kept him longer for us when we had an unfortunate mishap at the end of our vacation. Thank you so much Brianna for caring for our boy - we will definitely be in touch the next time we need a sitter!!”

“Im so happy I was able to find Nelcy last minute to watch my dog Ally. The meet and greet was perfect and Ally went right into play mode. I knew that she was going to be in good hands and really enjoy someone taking care of my dog like they're part of the family. Loved the updates and pictures as well. 10/10 recommend!!”

“Our dog Diggs just enjoys being with Ashley & hr family. She is often very accommodating and helpful to urgent needs and requests. Practically our dog’s 2nd family”

“Morgan took great care of our dog while we went out of town for the weekend. She was available on short notice and very flexible with timing. Our pup had a great time!”

“Tara was amazing with Adidas. Adidas was vey happy there and played with Nana and thy became good friends. Tara kept me updated several times a day with pics. I was very nervous never leaving adidas with anyone but family but Tara put my mind at ease. Thank u. Jeff”
“I can’t recommend Natalie enough! They took such great care of Shiro and were incredibly accommodating, even with my last-minute request. It’s clear how much Shiro enjoys his time there, he gets so excited when we arrive and even pulls me toward the door as soon as I park the car! It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such loving and capable hands. Thank you for always treating him like one of your own!”


About: I have had poodles, labs, chows, eight Great Danes. I take care of of my nieces three dogs when she is out of town. During Christmas Hoilday the out of town guest just bring their dogs, 4 acre lot. Involuntarily retired, I spend my days piddling on projects around the house and working on excessively old cars. Dogs have always liked me and I have always liked dogs. Dogs get feed twice a day. I have an invisible fence system. Giving pills during meal time is not an issue. I do have creates. I generally do not give treats.
“Simone was great! My schedule was all over the place and she was so understanding and flexible. She treated my pup like her own. I would absolutely trust Simone to watch my dog again. We had a great experience.”
“Rover newby here so everything was last minute but Beth was so accommodating and understanding. Woody took right up with her loving nature and made besties with Dodge and the others. She kept me informed all week and she was very quick in responding if I had a question. Definitely recommend. Thank you so much Beth. Woody will be back.”


“Hannah was so awesome and went above and beyond to make our golden doodle happy. We have a tall 60 lb dog and he got to run and play and rest- just what he needed. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“We felt at peace with Ellie watching Jax while we were away on a family vacation. We got great pictures and updates throughout the trip. Jax looked like he was having a great time! Will definitely continue to use Ellie’s dog sitting services for any futures trips!”

“Michelle was so great at sharing pics so I could see how much our Brady enjoyed cuddling and being part of her family for Labor Day weekend. I would highly recommend her to watch your fur baby.”

“Channon was so great. We left our 75 lb Pyrenees mix with Channon for two nights. Channon's dog Bizzy was the perfect playmate for our pup! She did a great job caring for him, sharing any concerns she had, and sending a video or two. We could tell that our pup was having a great time and felt very comfortable. Thank you Channon!!”


“Our pups had a good time with them. They got the care they needed including medication administration and catering to their anxiety. They also offered to do a meet and greet beforehand. They shared lots of photos and regular updates.”

“Brittany has been great with my pups. I felt super comf with them staying with her and her family. It helps a lot that she has her pup with her, who's super extroverted and helped get my younger dog out of his shell. I strongly recommend her! I'm just bummed that she's moving away from me 😞”

“This was our second booking with Katie and she was absolutely wonderful! Her expertise as a vet tech, communication, and willingness to go above and beyond came into play this stay, and showed just how dedicated to she is to caring for animals AND their owners! Katie is an asset and we will definitely book with her again. Thank you Katie for helping us take this trip and feel peace about sweet Casper’s care. You are a gem and we are so grateful for you!!”


“We had been looking for a good cat-sitter for a while, and then we found Nina! Our cats are tricky because of medication needs (injected and given by mouth). Nina is experienced and knowledgeable, friendly and a consistent communicator (she sent me pictures and updates daily!)! We arrived home to find each cat healthy and happy to see us! I will call on Nina again, and if you're looking for a great experience, you should to!”

“Danielle did a great job as usual even though our kitten didn’t remember her from last time and was a little spicy 🌶️ Everything I asked of her was done and I got lots of cute pics from each visit that helped me feel connected to them while I was away. I highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter that that puts their mind at ease 🥰”


About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring cat sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with cats and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I recently cared for two cats for three months, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and providing companionship. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, so I’m patient and happy to let them warm up at their own pace while keeping their routine consistent. I’ll treat your cats like they’re my own and make sure you have peace of mind with regular updates and photos during each visit. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

“Morgan is so helpful with visiting our cat, I really appreciate her attention and care for details during her visits. We’re glad our cat has a new friend in the area!”

“This was my first booking with Rebekah and I would definitely book her again. She was caring and conscientious, asked great questions and went well above and beyond expectations. Not only did she take great care of my cats, but it was wonderful to come home to a house that was as clean as I had left it.”

“As always, Matthew goes above and beyond what is asked of him. His interaction with our kitty is excellent, even when jasper wakes him up at 3 AM. Matthew is attentive to jasper and our home, which is much appreciated. He's terrific!”


“Karen was very responsive to communication and kept me up on her schedule. She showed up as planned and made sure our 3 cats had everything they needed in our absence. I would definitely recommend Karen to anyone needing a trusted caregiver.”


“Once again, Paige provided excellent care and comfort to both our pets and our peace of mind. She communicated throughout our time away and shared details of daily visits. We highly recommend Paige as a pet sitter. Thank you!!”


“I’m so happy to have met Kat! She came to meet Remmi, our 125lb English/Italian mastiff before watching her for the first time. I feel it is important for everyone to feel comfortable in a house and dog sitting situation-not only Remmi and I, but Kat as well! I immediately felt comfortable and confident with Kat taking care of our sweet pup and home while out of town. We used Kat again soon after the first time..a VERY last minute trip. Kat responded right away and agreed to help us out-she’s wonderful! I could go on and on-she is a perfect fit for our mastiff and mainecoon kitty!”


About: While dogs are my primary specialty, I have real experience caring for cats and a strong understanding of feline body language and behavior, I pay close attention to comfort level, stress signals, and each cat's individual routine. I'm attentive to litter box habits, feeding schedules, and give cats the space they need while still building trust at their own pace. If your cat is more independent or takes time to warm up, I'm patient and observant rather than pushy.

About: I've had a cat nearly my whole life, starting from a tiny kitten we found under the trash bins when I was a child. I'm very chill with cats and let them come to me in their own time. I've yet to meet a cat I can't get along with, even though some of them would prefer to hide in the towel closet and pretend I don't exist. Sorry cat, you're getting fed either way.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Maria watching our cat! She was incredibly attentive, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure our cat was happy and comfortable. She spent lots of quality time with her and sent us frequent updates and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, reliable, and loving to care for their pet. We would definitely book with her again!”


“Lexie was great! She was really accommodating for a late-night potty break and followed all the directions perfectly. I appreciated her reliability and care with my two fur babies. Communication was above & beyond. I would definitely book again!”

About: Growing up we have always had dogs and cats in the house, I couldn’t imagine not having each of them! We’ve had all different breeds and sizes that each lived 11-18 years, so I am used to taking care of old dogs and puppies. I’ve housesat/petsat for 7 different families over the years with dogs ranging from 8lbs to 210lbs!! I am currently a stay at home wife and I am working on school online. I have a lot of free time during the days my husband is at work. Mondays, tuesdays, wednesdays, and fridays 8am-6pm. I will care for the pets as if they were my own. I like to try and keep the known routine of the pet going which should be easy if I am coming into the home of the pet. Overall just loving and caring for the dogs or cats while their owner is away!

About: I’ve been a vet tech for about 6 years. Before that, I managed a pet boarding facility. I grew up on a farm, so I’ve been caring for dogs and cats all my life. I’m a toddler mom, and I currently work as an emergency vet tech so I’m great at keeping calm in stressful situations. I’m a stay-at-home mom during the week, and then I work on Saturdays, so I’m pretty flexible with my schedule! I will have to bring my 3-yr-old with me to any visits on a weekday if it’s before 4 pm, but he is very gentle and knows to go slow around animals. When I’m caring for a pet, I always play with them and make sure they get quality interaction with me. I also check over their physical appearance to make sure they’re healthy and safe. As a vet tech, I’m very concerned with pets’ health and wellbeing.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your dog loves long walks, hiking, playing fetch, or just relaxing with company, I’m happy to match their energy and routine. As someone who is very active, I enjoy giving high-energy dogs the exercise and attention they need, but I’m just as comfortable caring for senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra patience. I provide dependable drop-in visits, walks, overnight sitting, feeding, medication if needed, lots of affection, and regular photo updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe. I treat every dog like they’re my own because I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule because I have a flexible work routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends when needed. I enjoy staying active, so long walks, outdoor adventures, and playtime are some of my favorite parts of caring for dogs. I’ll always do my best to work around your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I’ll follow their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I’ll treat them like family while respecting your home as if it were my own. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands.
“So grateful for Tara! She was very accommodating and patient with my many questions. Once you meet Tara and her family you can tell they are animal lovers. Autzen was well cared for the entire time. Tara's home is a perfect space for running and relaxing. We will definitely be returning!!”

“Ginger had a great stay with Talia and Austin. This was her first time and she seemed to enjoy it. She came home happy...and tired. Talia said she did great during play time, nap time, and with her children. I was nervous about how she would do and almost cancelled. I'm so glad that I went ahead and took her. I'm looking forward to taking her back soon.”

“Morgan and her family were absolutely AMAZING to my sweet pup! You can really tell that she (along with her children) really just love to care for animals. I was very satisfied with everything, my pup had two days of “day care” when my work schedule was extremely busy & my pup was so excited to go back the next day and see her family. Thank you again Morgan!”

“Katrina was wonderful to work with! Great communication leading up to our event and throughout the day of the event, to include lots of pics. The space she has in her home and backyard is more than adequate, and we plan to use her again in the future!”

“We were visiting nearby and were so grateful that Olivia could take Bailey, with very little notice, for a couple hours while we had lunch in a restaurant with family. Bailey was reluctant to leave so I think that says it all! We will definitely hire Olivia again when we need doggy day care while in the area.”

“Jessica was incredible. We had a very last minute need and she was responsive, confident and we felt from the beginning that there wasn't a situation that she couldn't handle when it came to our dog. He can be a little anxiously attached and she didn't bat an eye. She was a godsend when we needed one!”

“I booked Michael with only 2 days notice as I had to figure out last minute work travel plans. Booking and during the stay he was responsive and sent me updates throughout the day. He asked questions and we were aligned on daycare expectations. Macy had a messy bathroom accident shortly after I left and I felt that Michael handled this professionally and understanding as a fellow dog parent.”

“Karyssa and her family were communicative about pick-up, drop-off, and events during the daycare. Gumby had a great time hanging out with her family. We couldn’t recommend her more 🐶! 10/10 would do it again.”

“Andrea kept my four month old pittie puppy for the day and took very good care of her!

About: Hey👋🏾, your pup's new bestie here! A little bit about me. I was born and raised on a farm here in NC, so I've always been outdoorsy. My first dog was a hundred pound German Shepard named Dee Dee. I was 5 years old then and we grew up together. Dogs have been apart of my life ever since. Growing up I was fortunate to have horses, chickens, cows and cats. I still love them all but now my focused is on dogs primarily. I have french bulldogs and a lovely husky mix I rescued named "Dex". I communicate well with animals and I'm good with them. I worked as a Vet tech for several years after high school. I then went on to become a Practice Manager for a Vet Office in Charlotte. I am now working to create my home into the perfect pup resort/paradise. I would love to have new and regular clientele so there is comfort between your dog and I. I don't mind taking your dog to groomers or doctor appointments if needed and I can do pick up and drop off from my home within 15 miles too. I do ask that I am informed of any health issues or behavioral issues up front. Please know that I will treat you and your babies with love and respect. Thats my garauntee! I am a full time dog breeder and currently have no expected litters so I have open availability. I can also board overnight (up to date vaccinations required). I can do drop-ins and walks also. I don't mind taking your 🐶 to their favorite parks. I have a clean acre yard with a fenced playpark on it. I have a heated & A/C Dog Hotel and dogs have their own suite. I own 5 friendly frenchies, for your dog to have friends to play with if you choose. Meal times and medications is at your choosing. Depending on weather determines what activites we do that day. Whatever we do we will have fun.
About: I am an absolute lover of all dogs! All breeds, sizes, backgrounds and personalities. They make me truly very happy and I want to do the same for them. I have 17 years experience caring for and walking dogs. I have had dogs my whole life.. I rescued my dog Lucy when she was a puppy. She was the sweetest dog and my best friend - my shadow. Please contact me for pet portrait inquiries. I work from home as a fine art painter so my schedule is very open and flexible. I have an SUV so I can bring your dog to the park and any of their favorite spots. There is nothing I wouldn't do for your dog! They will love their time with me and will always be given the very best care. I live in nature on one acre!

“Rebekah was so calm, efficient, and kind with Ray. He warned up to her immediately, as though he sensed her heart and soul. In addition to her competence with Ray, she is extremely organized using a calendar, communicates well as needed, and it's just a nice friendly person to chat with. We felt extremely comfortable with her. As we camp for short periods of time this summer Rebekah will be our go-to person. We trust her completely to stay in our home and care for Puma our cat while we are gone. This is her primary job so she gives 100% and does not have other distractions.”

“Natalie is great with our pup! She brings her doggies to walk with our little pug (with permission of course) and it’s a big bonus to for her to meet new friends and socialize further. Very flexible, reliable and accommodating! Would definitely recommend Natalie to other pet parents without hesitation.”

About: I have over 12 years of experience working in emergency veterinary medicine, where I cared for pets of all kinds and learned how to recognize their individual needs, behaviors, and signs that something may be wrong. After stepping away from the veterinary field to stay home with my children, I found a passion for providing a safe, loving, and comfortable home environment for pets while their families are away. My veterinary background gives me the confidence and knowledge to care for pets with different personalities, ages, medical needs, and routines. I have experience with dogs, cats, and many other types of animals, and I understand that every pet deserves patience, attention, and care tailored specifically to them. When pets stay with me, they become part of our family. I provide a clean, safe home, plenty of attention, playtime, and a large fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are loved and cared for while you’re away. * 🐾 ½ acre fenced play area * 🏡 Home environment (not a kennel) * 🐶 Small-group attention * 📸 Daily updates/photos * ❤️ Experienced pet care * 🐕 Social play (if appropriate) I currently only work as needed at the vet hospital and stay at home during the day so my schedule is very flexible most days. I have a 6ft vinyl fence in my back yard. I have 3 pups of my own that love anyone and everyone. Most pets that stay at my home are in kennels when we are away and or at night for safety but I do have a few that do better without a kennel and we accommodate that as well. I do have cameras set up so I can check in at any time if I’m away from home.
“I honestly can’t say enough good things about Chelsie! Leaving my dog with someone is always a little stressful, but from the moment I met her, I felt completely comfortable. She was so caring, patient, and attentive, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about my dog and treated him like her own. She kept me updated and sent me pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, my dog was happy and comfortable with her, and that means everything to me. ❤️ I’m so grateful for how well Chelsie took care of him. I would absolutely trust her with my dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly love and care for their pet. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs small and large since 2016 for family friends and neighbors. I have a real passion for animal care and my utmost priority is to make sure the well being of your pet is at an all time high. I’ve also gone through online training courses for dogs and cats detailing proper care techniques. Thursday afternoon's from four to six are my only recurring schedule block currently. I will update this when or if this ends up changing. I can tailor the visit to how best it is to fit your pet’s needs. On visits where a potty break is needed, they will be taken out and given treats and lots of love with some fresh water. On meal visits they will be given their meals and fresh water with lots of love as well. On overnight visits I follow the directions exactly and leave the place and the pet(s) looking and feeling better than when I arrived.
“Danielle took great care of my little Daisy! She came and walked her for 30mins for three days while I was at work. I would continue to request her for further puppy needs!!”

“We trust Paige to watch our pets while we are away. Paige was available last minute when we asked to provide company and outdoor exercise our doggie needs. Paige's experience and general love for animals makes us all comfortable. We've already booked a repeat visit. Thank you!”


“Lexie was so great with Brinkley. She spent a lot of time with her and gave her lots of attention. She was really accommodating with the specifics of walking her and even took her to Brinkleys favorite park! The cherry on top was that she brought a package inside for us, talk about going above and beyond. I would highly recommend using Lexie to care for you pups. Brinkley can’t wait to walk with Lexie again 🐶”


About: My name is Kathy and I have cared for pets my entire life. As a child I walked the neighborhood pets until I had my own. Every opportunity I had I was around animals.

My experience administering medication I am completely comfortable administering any medication or performing any procedures that may be needed.
“Another wonderful walk for my little babe! Ashley sent me a picture and gave me regular up dates. So thankful she was able to walk my dog on such short notice! ”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life. Now that I’m older I’ve had plenty experience caring for them whether that be pet sitting for friends and family or in my line of work. Something that will set me apart from other sitters you may come across is my experience working at a kennel. This includes specifically working with service dogs, boarding pets, and k9 working. I’ve worked with a variety of dog breeds, ages and behaviors, meaning I can cater to whatever your pets needs :) Since I work as a kennel technician, being with and caring for animals is practically second nature to me. Being able to pet sit would be right up my alley and perfect for the experience I have. Your pet is 100% guaranteed to get the best care I can provide. To list a few this includes always having fresh water, appropriate exercise, meals according to their routine, cleaning up any messes, administering any medication and of course lots of attention. Pet behavior will also be monitored and you will receive ample updates on anything and everything going on with your fur baby.
About: I have spent my whole life around dogs. From a young child to current day, I've always had a pet in my life. I have cared for outdoor dogs, indoor dogs, fish, and snakes. I've also cared for and been around most ages of dogs from 8 week puppies to elderly companions. I love spending time outdoors with them, sunshine, snow, pools, treks, mud, or wherever. My two kids are in school so I'll have plenty of time for your pet. My kids are comfortable around pets so even after school, I'm still available for care. I'm also available to board any day or night of the week. I'm close to parks and Pilot Mountain trails. I have plenty of backyard space for you pet to run and even a ramp entrance for pets with mobile difficulties. I have a backyard space for healthy walking/running. I have plenty of toys to keep your pet active and cushions for relaxing. I have a crate available if needed. I also have a dog of my own to keep your pet company. My dog is allowed on all the furniture in the house and yours is welcome to join in for cuddles.
About: Hi! I’m Maria, or Ria for short. I’m excited to meet and care for your furry friend! I've loved and cared for animals of all shapes and sizes my entire life—including dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, crabs, fish, and farm animals. These days, my heart belongs to my sweet Pembroke Welsh Corgi. I live in Kernersville and work in Winston-Salem. I work from home and in the office, so my schedule for playtime, walks, and feedings is flexible. I am very active, so I can provide your pet with plenty of walks and playtime! I am comfortable with both large and small animals.

About: I have acquired a unique set of skills. I may not know who you are, or where you’re from. But I will find you. And I will take the best care of your animals!! Also please tell me you know what movie the first part is from. Free schrute bucks if so! I am currently a fourth year medical student. Just moved to the Chicago area to finish med school. My hours are random but short and flexible. Best part about being in my final year is that I can make my own schedule and majority of my days are spent at home studying. I have a fenced in back yard, living with another medical student so one of us is usually always home. There is another small dog in the house and she is older, but loves other animals and is very friendly. I can do leash walks or allow your animal out in your yard for some play time. Whatever is easiest for you and preferred.

My goal is to bring reliable, safe and quality care to pet owners in our community. There is no better way to travel than to travel with peace of mind knowing that your pet is comfortable at home with a trusted care giver. As a professional pet sitter, I take pet care very seriously and continue to educate myself on the most up to date standards of pet care. I am a member of Pet Sitters International (PSI) and have received certification through PSI as a Certified Professional Pet Sitter. I am certified in PetTech pet first aid & CPR training and am privately insured outside of Rover through Pet Sitter Associates. For more information, please visit my website by searching Wild Iris Pet Sitting on Google. Don’t forget to check out my 50+ five star reviews! I am a full-time pet sitter, meaning that I take care of multiple homes at once but also meaning I have a bit of flexibility to meet your pets needs. I also book outside of Rover through my website so my schedule can get busy. I recommended that new clients request drop-in pet sitting and dog walking services at least a week in advance. Animal welfare is one of my greatest passions. All animals in my care are treated with kindness and respect, as if they were one of my own. Comfort and safety is my top priority!
About: Growing up we have always had dogs and cats in the house, I couldn’t imagine not having each of them! We’ve had all different breeds and sizes that each lived 11-18 years, so I am used to taking care of old dogs and puppies. I’ve housesat/petsat for 7 different families over the years with dogs ranging from 8lbs to 210lbs!! I am currently a stay at home wife and I am working on school online. I have a lot of free time during the days my husband is at work. Mondays, tuesdays, wednesdays, and fridays 8am-6pm. I will care for the pets as if they were my own. I like to try and keep the known routine of the pet going which should be easy if I am coming into the home of the pet. Overall just loving and caring for the dogs or cats while their owner is away!
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for animals of all kinds, from tarantulas and fish to horses, donkeys, and just about everything in between! Whether your pet has fur, feathers, scales, or eight legs, I'm committed to providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care. I have extensive experience working with puppies, senior pets, and reactive dogs. I'm comfortable training puppies by reinforcing good habits and routines, administering oral and topical medications, and providing the extra patience and attention that senior pets need. I'm also known for my ability to build trust with reactive, anxious, or shy animals by moving at their pace and creating a calm, low-stress environment. Every pet is unique, and I treat each one like they're my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they're in experienced, capable hands. I pet sit full time so I am always available to take care of your pups! I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments. I am very respectful of your and your pet’s home, always following directions and daily care. I don’t offer boarding currently but I do offer overnight visits.

About: I've been caring for animals for over 10 years and have always had a passion for pets. I have experience house-sitting, feeding, walking, cleaning up after, and caring for dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends. Growing up with pets has taught me that every animal is unique, and I treat each one with the same love, patience, and attention I'd give my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a graduate student completing my degree online while working about 30 hours a week in my internship. Outside of work and school, I spend most of my time with my family, my boyfriend, and at church on Wednesdays and Sundays. My schedule is generally flexible, and I do my best to accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. I often spend time accompanying the dogs with snuggles and a couple of hours of playtime a day. I provide food and water for the animals as instructed by the owner as each owner has a different approach. I often take dogs on one or two walks a day because exercise is extremely beneficial for pets.
