“Maria really goes above and beyond with communication, care, and cute photos!! She is a lifesaver and always makes sure my dog has everything she needs to be comfortable after her walks!! She’s also been super great with keeping consistency with walk training which is a huge help!”

About: I’ve raised, fostered, and cared for pets for over two decades, including puppies, seniors, reactive dogs, and everything in between! I can administer medication, and provide special care. I have trained my own dogs (seven), fosters under my care (over 30), and helped friends and clients train their dogs. I am happy to reinforce any training you are currently doing with your pet, so all of your hard work does not get undone. Whether it is daily walks and stimulation, an overnight stay, or an extended trip, you can rest easy knowing your loved one will receive love and attention, exercise, enrichment, and all the snack snacks you’ll allow! I have my own business and work from home. I’m fortunate to have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to prioritize pets’ needs (walks, potty breaks, playtime). Under my care, your loved one will be my top priority. I have a fenced in yard, and two friendly dogs. However, your pup’s safety and comfort will be a top priority. My dogs are crate trained, and if yours is too, I’m happy to reinforce that. I can also keep dogs separated, and still provide ample space for them to feel comfortable. My home is very safe, quiet, and dog friendly.
“I trust Beau with my little guy. He is a great communicator, sends great pics, takes Fritz for pup cups, and really seems genuine in his care and love of dogs. Thanks Beau!”

“Shanavia made me feel so safe and comfortable. My dog is a little crazy but she was so patient and took the time to understand my dog and train her. She has become my go to walker!”

About: I am a loving and caring person who believes dogs are better then humans, I love to play with them all day, or as long as I can, and give them all the love and care in the world. I am super friendly, and am willing to have a flexible schedule. I am a avid dog owner myself, and have been since the day I was born, I've lived with all types of dogs, from big to small, as well as high energy to no energy. Im am ready for anything! Dogs are what make me happy in life, and I love to see them happy and healthy as well. I will take great care of your animals as I would take care of my own.

“Lindsey continues to be our super star walker and sitter. She is so patient with our nervous dog. I am so grateful for Lindsey’s positive attitude and kindness with Morgan!”

“Sarah is absolutely wonderful and I would recommend her to anybody. She’s responsive, reliable, and most importantly my dog loves taking walks with her. Sarah is very attentive to my pup’s needs and quirks. Your dog will be in great hands with her.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, from my 9 pound Shorkie to my 128 pound Great Dane. I understand the feeling of needing to know your pet is taken care of when you aren’t there and I will do just that when I am walking them or popping in for a visit. My Great Dane is medically complex, so should your pet need medications, injections, or just some special, extra care, I am more than happy and willing to provide :) I am a full-time nurse, so my availability fluctuates. Please feel free to send me a message to see if I can walk or visit your fluffy friend! I have an open back yard that isn’t fenced in, but I am happy to sit in the sun on the patio with your pet, leashed or not (your preference). I have a sweet Great Dane who mostly ignores dogs but loves cats.

About: I have cared for family, friends, and neighbors' pets since childhood. I have experience walking, feeding, training, and giving lots of love to dogs and cats. I am responsible, communicative, and mindful of your pet's needs. I like to be active, so there can be lots of walks in your pet's future, but I also enjoy cuddling up on the couch if your pet prefers to lounge around. I work remotely and full-time, with fairly flexible hours (occasionally going into a coworking space when not pet-sitting). I am in Charlotte most weekends as well. I enjoy taking short breaks throughout the day to walk, play, or cuddle with any fur baby. I live in a townhome community with a green space and next to a neighborhood with great walking paths. Overall it is a very pet friendly area. I live in a three bedroom/three story townhome with room for your pet to stretch out and relax in a calm and peaceful environment. My unit is very well sound-proofed, with no excessive noise from neighbors or other pets. I am happy to send pictures of the green space and townhome upon request.
About: I had my baby for 10 and a half years and still miss him every day. I’m not ready to get another baby, but I’d love to provide trustworthy care for yours. I work from home, so I can do potty breaks and give medications as needed. Without any other pets or people in my home, I can provide all the needs of your dog(s). I work from home during the week, so I’ll be able to work around needed schedules. It is possible for me to be gone on certain days for 4-8 hours. I’ll do my best to take care of your baby / babies as you would. I had my 125 pound baby in an apartment, so I understand the need for multiple walks and finding places they can run. Pets are welcome on any furniture in my home.
About: I have been pet owners for years & there’s nothing I love more than spending time with animals. I love to take walks to the dog park & have a good game of fetch. I also take pictures of pets that I taken care of before so let me know if that’s something you would like. I currently work from home so I spend all day with my pets. My job lets me be able to still take my dog on multiple walks a day, have play time, go to the park & more. The play area is fenced in, I can easily crate your dog if needed. In my home I can provide everything your pet needs like if it was their own home and vice versa.
About: I understand the body language of a dog. Due to my encounters as a foster parent. Also, I understand the impact that good exercise has on a dog. I am working as a track trainer/coach but I can organize my schedule. I am available on weekends and weekdays anytime after 10:00 am. I can go as late as 9:00 pm. I will follow the ground for the client layout for me, and try to have as much fun with the dog as possible. If a client wants the dog to be crated I can do that as well.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I grew up around dogs, cats, horses, and birds, so caring for animals feels very natural to me. I’ve spent decades caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors and truly enjoy spending time with them. To me, pets are family. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and attention to their individual needs. Whether your dog loves playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and making sure pets feel relaxed in their own environment. My goal is always to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being cared for with genuine love and reliability. I work remotely part-time, with a flexible schedule allowing me to provide dependable pet care throughout the day. I’m able to plan visits around each pet’s routine, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply spending time with them so they feel comfortable while you're away. Because of this flexibility, I’m able to provide consistent care and make sure pets receive the attention they need rather than feeling rushed. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care that I would expect for my own. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment and take the time to observe their behavior so I can respond to their needs. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

Abby is amazing with our senior rescue greyhound. She cares about him so much and is incredibly patient with his quirks. She’s always 200% reliable, and always communicates as to how he’s doing when watching him. He loves her and always looks forward to seeing her! We have zero worries when Abby is with him.
