“Tori has Been great with walking my dog. She’s been prompt and kept me updated with pictures. She followed instructions to a tee. Will continue to use her ! 5 star”
About: I currently foster dogs and teach basic training for puppies/young dogs. I have a lot of experience with high energy dogs. I have worked at with dogs at boarding kennels and a dog rescue in which I have handled a variety of different dogs breeds with many different personalities and needs. I take dogs to wildlife areas and the beaches to run on and off leash if client is confident with their dog listening. I currently work from home, and my schedule is pretty flexible. I can work Monday’s to Friday’s and most weekends. I will keep my schedule updated through the app. I have a fenced in yard and monitor dogs when outside. I monitor pets with toys and spend time playing with dogs. If requested, I will provided basic training lessons, but price will vary. I am trained in e-collar training, clicker, positive reinforcement/treats. Method of training or handling the dog is discussed with the client . That is determined by client and what training shall be focused on. I am trained in animal behavior and can notice if dogs become aggressive with people or other animals if requested for dogs to engage with other dogs. I always encourage clients to have their dogs engage in activities outside the home to get the dog more comfortable around people , other dogs, and people. Also to be handled walking on a leash and practice good behavior. Unless the dog is extremely aggressive and not good around other people or animals, I believe it is crucial for young dogs to practice socializing. Please be honest and inform me of any medical issues, aggression, other behavioral issues, and what toys they are allowed to have.
About: I started taking care of dogs at a young age and fell in love! I have a sweet crazy puppy of my own! Most importantly I pay attention to the finer details to make sure your furry family members are well taken care off! I love my job because it allows that flexibility being able to work from anywhere! I just need some wifi and my laptop! I have plenty of time to lend a helping hand and keep the doggies active and happy when their family can't be with them 24/7! I love a routine and so do our pups. With active listening and genuine care I can adapt to your dogs routine to make sure they stay on their routines even when you can be there with them. As a helicopter mom to my own dog I can understand the stress and worry that comes when you have to leave your pup in someone else's hands! I believe in lots of communication between me and you through details through out my care to your pup and lots and I mean lots of pictures of how they are doing!
“Morgan is amazing. She does such a great job with my puppy, especially with the heat. I would very highly recommend her to anyone in the Leland area needing regular or one off care for their animals!”
About: My entire life i've always had at least one dog in my life which is how i've come to love and take pride in caring for these precious creatures and giving them the attention they deserve!

I’m a SAHM so I am very flexible with my time and can give your lovely fur babies exactly what they need throughout the day I will be very diligent in making sure they will be well taken care of during their walks and or check ins I will make sure they have plenty of time to let their energy out!
“Dependable and dog loved rachel”
“The dog loved Lexi. I would use her again. Very informative and happy toward us and the dog.”
“Jason just started helping me with my two dogs this past week. Jason came over for a meet and greet as the dogs had just moved here the day prior and everything was new. They took to him instantly and they look forward to their playtime and walks each time he comes over. My smaller dog is quite strong and quite the “puller”on the leash. Jason is very kind and patient with her and I know she is getting her exercise even though she is difficult to walk. Jason has been able to work with all my date requests and the dogs enjoy a consistent familiar face as part of their new routine.”
“Mandy has been checking in on Bruiser for a few months now and does a great job and is also very reliable. I love the pictures and detailed review of his check in. I will continue to use Mandy to check in on my puppy.”
“Jo Beth did a wonderful job taking care of our 5 1/2 month old puppy! She was very reliable & attentive to Maggie! I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a kind & caring person to help them with their pets!”
“Quick response! I needed a last minute walker and she made it happen! Thank you so much!”
About: I have always had dogs and at times cats. Currently I have three dogs, a Pug named Lucy, a Boston Terrier named Izzy, and a Beagle/ Boarder Collie named Skippy. It takes a lot of patience to create harmony with this pack, but I have been able to do it with a lot of consistency and TLC. What I will give your pet is what I want mine to have when I am gone, and that is the love and interaction all dogs need from us. I have also trained mine to walk well on the leash. My family calls me the dog whisperer, so if you need someone to drop in or walk your fur baby to give you peace of mind, please reach out.

“Thank you!”
“Elisa is communicative, flexible, and asked good questions to learn about the needs of my dog. She was willing to schedule me in short notice and was friendly.”

If you want to FaceTime your pet, I’m happy to arrange that too!
“My pup got sick and stopped eating while I was away and Jenna was instrumental in helping me understand the severity of the situation and how he was progressing each day. She worked with me to trouble shoot until we got him eating again. I am so thankful for her intuition and commitment to my pups well-being!”
