Alexandra looked after my dog and cat while I was away on a work trip. She was always quick with replies and attentive to my dog’s needs while walking her in the hot weather! She was flexible with scheduling the initial meet and greet, pet visits, and took good care of my pets! Will hope to use her services again when needed in the future.

We have had a wonderful experience with Emily! She is reliable, communicative, and clearly cared so much about our pup. We always got updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Our dog absolutely loved spending time with her and seems much happier when we come home at the end of the day when Emily comes by to walk him.

Becca is seriously the best dog walker our babies have had! She understands that they are valued family members and treats them as such. Beyond that she is super responsive and punctual. It has always hard for us to find people who we could fully trust with our babies but I 1000% her to care for them. They are both seniors and she totally understands their needs and that gives us the peace of mind and confidence with them in her care. THANK YOU!

Sarah was great with our dogs! Really attentive and sent thorough updates and photos for each walk. She especially took care of our 13-year-old dog who can’t always go long distances at his age. Would love to book again!

Amazing! I was new to the Raliegh area and was super nervous about finding someone I trusted. I quickly realized that with Ellen, I didn’t have to worry at all. My pup loves her and she is always so responsive to my messages and updates me with pics. Definitely would recommend her to care for your pet!

About: With extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs, I understand that every pet has a unique personality and individual needs. From playful puppies to wise senior dogs, and curious kittens to independent adult cats, I provide compassionate, personalized care for all. I offer extra patience and comfort to older pets, including assistance with mobility and special attention to their changing needs. As both a cat owner and a “fur momma” to an anxious dog, I’m skilled in managing the unique behaviors and preferences of cats, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also experienced in administering oral and topical medications to both cats and dogs when needed. Recognizing signs of stress or anxiety comes naturally to me, allowing me to adjust care to keep pets calm and happy. Above all, I’m dedicated to providing loving, attentive care that feels like a true home away from home for your furry family members. As a teacher, my schedule offers a great balance that allows me to provide attentive and flexible pet care. During the school year, I have frequent breaks that give me extended availability to focus on your pets with dedicated time and care. On weekdays, I’m available in the late afternoons and evenings—perfect for dogs who need a walk or playtime after a busy day. I’m also free on weekends, which means I can offer consistent and reliable care when many others might be unavailable. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight stays, or longer-term pet sitting during holidays and breaks, I tailor my schedule to meet your pet’s needs and ensure they feel loved and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I create a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment where your furry friend can feel relaxed and happy. I respect your space and routines, following any specific instructions you provide to maintain consistency for your pet. I keep all areas safe and clean, ensuring food, water, and playtime are managed carefully. I’m attentive to any potential hazards and remove or avoid them to keep your pet safe.

Shaquilla was fantastic. Flexible schedule, very prompt to pick up my babies. I got the best photo updates!! My babies are very high energy on walks and she handled the challenge so well. My dogs adore her and we will be using her services again. I think of my dogs like my CHILDREN and I felt so comfortable leaving them in her care ???

Lauren was absolutely amazing, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog. I booked her for a 30-minute walk every day around noon, and I told her I was very flexible with timing. She was always reliable and showed up when scheduled, but what really stood out to me was how much she genuinely cared about my puppy. Even though the walks were booked for 30 minutes, she constantly went above and beyond. Whether it was an extra minute, five minutes, or even ten, she never seemed rushed and truly spent quality time with my dog. After every walk, I didn’t just get one quick picture. I would get several adorable photos along with detailed updates about everything they did. She would let me know about their walk, any interactions they had, and even small thoughtful things like cleaning out his water bowl. You can tell Lauren is not just doing this as a job. She genuinely loves dogs and enjoys spending time with them. That kind of care, attention, and thoughtfulness is rare, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my puppy was in such good hands. I’m so grateful for her and will absolutely book with her again!

I’ve had a really great experience with my dog walker. He’s incredibly kind and attentive, and it’s obvious he genuinely cares about the dogs he works with. I have two dogs, and he handles both of them with ease, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well taken care of every time. One thing I really appreciate is that he always sends pictures during or after the walks. It gives me peace of mind knowing they’re doing well and actually enjoying themselves. You can tell he goes the extra mile—not just getting the job done, but making sure my dogs are comfortable and cared for like they’re his own. Overall, I couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with my dogs. Reliable, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about what he does.
