Dog Walking Wide Awake

“Chelsea is a wonderful pet sitter/dog walker. She is reliable, consistently communicative, and great with our dogs and cats. Unfortunately, she was taking care of our dogs during a very rainy week, but she did a great job drying them off and making sure they got out there (even if they didn’t want to go out!). I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others!”

“Katie is the best! She is so great with Kiwi and so thorough! We are so grateful for her and her willingness to help us even with last minute walks! She has been an absolute blessing to Kiwi and us! :)”

About: I have taken care of animals since i was a child! I personally had 4+ dogs/cats at a time growing up since I was 5 years old and even now! As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home the majority of the day and night, which allows me to give consistent attention and supervision. I only step out briefly for school drop-off/pick-up or short errands, typically no more than a few hours total. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches and will be treated like part of our daily routine, with regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on 2 fully fenced acres, providing plenty of secure space to run and explore while always supervised. When indoors, pets are part of our family environment — relaxing, playing, or cuddling in a calm and clean home. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions to ensure they feel safe and at ease. My goal is to create a structured but loving environment where your pup feels right at home.

“Super helpful and responsive. I’m almost always on a last minute basis with my schedule and she has come through tremendously. I do enjoy speaking with her and she keeps me up to date. I highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud rescue dog owner! New to Rover and would love to help you with your pup! 2 years ago I adopted my pup when he was 10 weeks old and have loved every minute of raising my goofball sidekick. It’s Henry’s World and I have the honor of being a part of it!! Through training, daily exercise and lots of patience, I’ve gained firsthand experience with puppy energy, the importance of routine and building trust with dogs! I also cared for a dog for 7 months while her owner was deployed overseas, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication and dependable care when someone is trusting you with their pet. I’m attentive, patient, and happy to match each dog’s personality and needs - whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles or just making them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. At the end of the day, it’s their world and we are just lucky enough to be a part of it!!! No 2 dogs are exactly alike and I love getting to know what makes each unique! I’m more than happy to adapt to your dogs specific needs, routines, energy level and personality to make sure they get the best care possible! I currently work from home so can help out in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. I am very flexible with my schedule and can help at almost anytime! I am more than happy to come to your home where your dog is most comfortable to help care for them! I can walk them around the neighborhood or let them out in the yard to play! Whatever works best for you and your pet! My dog is a very anxious dog, so I am well versed in building and earning dogs trust!

“Danielle is so great to work with and took great care of my pup for his walks! She is timely and communicates well. Will absolutely book again!”

I can get busy but that’s ok because I’m willing to make you happy and your fur babies. I love being around animals.

About: While I don’t have formal pet care experience, I have grown up with animals and have years of hands on experience caring for animals. Personally I grew up in a household that loves animals. That said I’ve helped care for cats, dogs, fish, and even a pig (the pig is a fun story). I have done numerous doggy dates through Dorchester Paws, dog sat for neighbors, and regularly help friends with walking, feeding, and the daily care of their dogs. I’m comfortable with different breeds, sizes, and energy levels and I will treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently working part time (25 hours) and in school. I don’t have classes on Friday-Monday and my typical days off from work are Tuesdays and Wednesday. I typically work evening shifts getting off around 20:00 (8:00 pm). I can be flexible so we should be able to work something out. I am currently living in a college dorm so I don’t have any pets living with me currently. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with animals, and giving them plenty of scratches and belly rubs.

About: I’ve always had a love of animals. I wanted to be a veterinarian for as long as I could remember; however, life had other plans. Caring for animals is still a passion of mine but in a different field. I’ve been caring for and watching over pets for about 12 years privately. My experience ranges from puppies to our beloved senior pets as well as exotics. I am very flexible with scheduling! I will always do my best to fit you and your pets into my busy and ever growing booming calendar! I love spending time playing, walking and cuddling with all fur babies. I have experience in caring for working/retired K-9s as well as aggressive/bite prone breeds! I also have experience in administering medicine in pill and liquid forms, not shots. So have no fear! Your pets and I are always safe in each others company! I’m looking to expand and receive my dog training license.

About: I live in Ladson and would love to help you by taking care of your pets! I am an animal lover and want to take care of your baby just like they are my own I work full time during the week, but I do have weekends off. I am available Friday PM-Sunday all day anytime to help you out! I do live in an apartment but have plenty of space to play and care for your pets. Potty breaks are not a problem at all, as I can take them out anytime they need. I also have a dog park in the complex and plenty of walking space to get exercise throughout the day!

About: I have been passionate about taking care of animals since I volunteered at my first animal shelter cleaning cages at 11 years old. I have been fortunate enough to carry that into adulthood, partnering with two local shelters. I have dedicated thousands of hours in my home to fostering and supporting the adoption of local shelter dogs for the last two years. In my personal time, when not volunteering, I am training for an upcoming marathon, so for pups who require more than an afternoon stroll, I am happy to have them tag along on my runs, short or long distance! I have one Persian cat named Sir Alfred who is 12 years bold, and a 2 year old Doberman named Circe, who both have plenty of experience welcoming new faces into our home. I have experience with more aggressive dogs and cats, and I am comfortable with dogs that might be considered difficult on a leash. I work full time, and also serve in the Army reserves one month a year locally, but I am available for lunch, evening, and weekend walks/stop ins. For boarding, I am able to spend time before and after work, as well as hour long lunch breaks with my house guests! When I have guests who aren’t very cat friendly, my cat has his own safe room in the house that he stays. My dog Circe goes for a morning run with me every morning, and is crated during the day while I work. I spend my weekends taking her to local parks or events. I have a fenced in back yard that everyone has access to at their own enjoyment. My live in partner and I work together with our pets to ensure they are always mentally and physically stimulated.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been something I truly love! Growing up with dogs has given me plenty of hands-on experience with their different personalities, needs, and routines. I’ve also been trusted by friends and family to pet sit and care for their fur babies while they’re away. Whether it’s going for walks, feeding, playing, giving lots of cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I always make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and comfortable. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I promise to treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own! 🐶💕 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to caring for your fur babies! I help take care of my grandparents and occasionally assist with my boyfriend’s business when needed, but I have lots of availability throughout the week. This gives me the flexibility to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and plenty of love and attention! I truly enjoy spending time with animals and would love to make caring for your pets part of my everyday routine! 🐾💕 Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort will always be my top priorities! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and special needs, so I make sure to follow your instructions closely to help them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether I’m taking them on walks, stopping by for visits, or caring for them in your home, I’ll provide plenty of love, attention, and supervision. I will always respect your home, keep you updated with pictures and messages, and treat your fur babies as if they were my own! 🐶💕

About: Hi new family! My name is Elayne but family and friends call me Lanie. I know our dogs are not just an animal. They are the warm heartbeat at our feet. Literally I've been a dog lover,owner,caretaker and sitter my whole life. Until recently we lost our best buddy Nikko. He was a Japanese Akita, a big ball of fluff and love. My husband and I decided not to adopt another dog. As much love and room we have in our hearts, and there is nothing better than having a dog as a member of the family. We also know it's a life long commitment. We talked about how could we fill that void. We still have the love and the time. Just not the forever. So why not be the extention of a family? The bennies for all! Right? Drop of your furry baby with auntie. I know there are some great day cares in the area however your precious fur baby going to a home away from home is no comparison. Home is where its at. Home is where the love is. Hope to meet you soon! Communication is the key. I'm super flexible. Because of that, I'm sure I'll be able to cater to your dog's needs. That way your pet is not thrown off it's schedule and continues to stay comfortable at his/her home away from home. Your pet is family. Thats how they will get treated. I have a closed fenced yard. I'm also a daily walker. If your dog takes walks. I'm all in! Walking is great exercise. It's always better to have a furry friend to take with.
