Dog Walkers in Wood Valley, SC

About: Hey there my name is Danielle, I have taken care of dogs of all ages ranging from puppies going through their first heat to senior dogs with lack of abilities. Growing up I had all sorts of pets in my home and enjoyed sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. Also one of my first jobs was at a dog boarding and day care facility. I love all breeds of dogs and cats and just want to keep them happy and healthy and have a fun time. I am available on the weekends and I love the outdoors so any chance to get some sunshine is my favorite. Meeting new people and pets is something I always look forward to. I have a fenced backyard, and my dog is friendly. I do not leave dogs unattended outside because I want to be sure they won't try to escape the yard or dig holes. When in a client's home I am sure to read all instructions given prior to my drop in. I make sure that the their pet is given my full attention during my time there. If I have any questions I am not afraid to ask. I will also send updates and photos if requested.

“Kelsey did an awesome job with our 2 big dogs! She was kind & caring. The dogs tails were wagging when she came by (so they told me). We’d definitely have Kelsey walk our dogs again!”

About: Hi! My name is Catie. I am a high school special education teacher full time. I have over 25 years of experience with animals, and can’t wait to meet yours! I am a teacher on Summer break with availability until June 16th! Whether it’s a walk around the block or quality cuddle time, I’m you sitter! Be sure to check out my calendar and book before it’s too late! I meet with my clients before watching their fur babies to make sure that I can meet all of their individualized needs. I’m accommodating to all families and pets.

About: I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide more than just pet sitting, and I create a loving, comfortable environment where dogs feel safe, happy, and cared for until their family returns. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and affection they need. Caring for animals is something I look forward to, and I enjoy creating a safe, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and happy while their owners are away. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I also keep their environment clean and safe, follow any special instructions from the owner, and provide regular updates so owners can feel confident their pets are being well cared for.

About: My name is Alexandria, and I’ve had a passion for animals since childhood. I grew up helping on a farm until I was 12 and began working for a dog groomer at 14 which i stopped around 16, gaining valuable experience in animal care. I currently have two German Shepherds and three cats, and I’ve always been the go-to sitter for family and neighbors. Whether it's walking, feeding, or providing special care for senior pets or puppies, I bring love and dedication to every pet I care for. I am currently in college at USCA and I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. Whether it's daily walks or playtime, I can easily accommodate any pup or kitty into my routine. My schedule allows me to give them the attention and care they deserve, ensuring peace of mind for you while you’re away. While I don’t have a fenced yard due to Hurricane Helene, I’m happy to walk your pet using your preferred method. If your pet has access to a fenced yard, I’ll keep a watchful eye to ensure they’re happy and safe while they run around. I prioritize their well-being, making sure they get the exercise, play, and attention they need, whether it's on a walk or in the yard.

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of many different kinds! I have taken care of both geriatric & adolescent aged animals. As well as having experience with animals who have special needs like blindness, deafness, and giving medication. I hope to meet your babies soon! I'm currently in graduate school to become a speech language pathologist and I’m wanting to supplement my income with some sitting/walking/dropping in jobs before and after school during the week and on the weekends. I will not be able to provide sitting services for any pets inside of my home as I already have multiple animals like cats, dogs, chickens, and fish at my home.

About: I have been caring for a variety of pets ranging from cats and dogs to rodents and horses since I was 12 years old. Since then I have fully trained my own dog to do basic tasks but also to “find” things (such as an inhaler for my mom) and stand with her back to my calves if we are in crowded areas. I am always learning new ways to better care for pets and new tricks for my own dog! I have just graduated from university so I am currently searching for a full-time job in my field. That means for now I am completely free to help out with pets whether that means walking, drop in visits, or house sitting. If I am coming over to housesit I will likely be at the house for the majority of the day and stay over at night too (or whatever the owner requests.) I am completely flexible and open to negotiation.

About: Hi there! I’m Bella, a 23-year-old college student attending Full Sail University remotely from Aiken, SC. I share my cozy home with my partner Luke, our four dogs. Animals have been a big part of my life ever since I was a little girl, and I truly believe that every pet deserves to feel loved, happy, and safe. Whether it’s cuddling on the couch, going for a walk, or just spending some quality time together, I make it my number one priority to ensure your furry friend feels comfortable and cared for. I know how important it is to find a sitter you can trust, and I promise to treat your pets like part of my own family. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your pet and give them the attention they deserve while you’re away. Let’s chat and see how I can help make your time apart from your beloved companion a little bit easier! I currently work from home as a freelancer, so I’ll have plenty of flexibility to take care of your furry friends with enough notice in advance. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I start by getting to know the pet’s routine, preferences, and any specific needs, so I can ensure they feel right at home. I respect the owner’s space and follow any specific instructions provided, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and medication administration. I always make sure the pet feels comfortable and maintain open communication with the owner, providing updates and photos to give peace of mind. My top priority is ensuring your pet is happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away!

About: I'm Emily and I may or may or not be the worlds biggest animal lover! I grew up on a ranch in Texas and here in South Carolina working with and taking care of all types of animals, from bunnies to pheasants, pigs to horses. If it has legs and a cute furry face I have probably bottle fed it and raised it! I have fond memories of bottle feeding a pack rat in my teens and no my parents were not pleased =) I once bottle fed a litter of 5 kittens from birth, they all thrived and it was an amazing experience. I completed 7 years in the US Navy and for the past few years I have been mom Emily to my 3 boys. You CAN trust your house and pets with me. I currently have a flexible schedule! We can find a solution to your needs. My 3 cats are grumpy and persnickety, trust me, they wont miss me=) I am not currently watching any dogs or cats in my home, aforementioned 3 cats would be displeased BUT I can provide excellent care in clients homes.

About: I've raised and trained dogs most of my life from puppy care to seniors, as well as animals with medical issues. I was a breeder of Gordon Setters for many years. I love the company of dogs and getting to know their personalities. I especially love seniors, as I wish for them to know they are loved in their twilight years. I work part time from home and have a flexible schedule which allows me to work around my pet client needs. Most times I am available last minute as well. I ask for detailed information with any special needs. I spend time interacting, playing talking, petting, and love curling up on the couch with mu client's pets.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, currently with 3 dogs ranging from 4 lbs to 65 lbs, 4 goofy cats, and enough fish tanks to rival a small aquarium in my home. When I left the US Army in 2012, I started working with animal rescue organizations and it became a passion of mine. I will provide intensive home care to geriatric dogs with complex health needs, including cancer, seizures, tracheomalacia, and diabetes. I have experience with puppy training and caring for adult dogs of all sizes. I have also cared for cats, lizards, turtles, horses, and a variety of fish! Whatever your pet care needs are, I’m certain I can take good care of your furry family. I work full time Monday through Wednesday, and am available for pet care Thursday through Sunday with flexible hours including early mornings to late evening. I prefer to meet your pets before the first appointment, so that I can see their environment and be familiar with their daily routine in order to best care for them.

About: I grew up with all sorts of animals- dogs, cats, bunnies, fish - pretty much everything! ☺️ After college I adopted my first pup- Harley, a miniature pinscher. He was my baby!! Over the years, my husband and I rescued 3 more min pins: Rudy, Gatsby and Lulu. They were the most fantastic little kiddos and our whole life for many years! Unfortunately we just lost our youngest, Lulu. This was the last of our pups to go over the past 6 years. It’s been really difficult saying goodbye to all of them and we need to take a break before we bring a new pup home. However, we are huge pet people and we really miss having a 4 legged friend around. So, we’d love to be able to love and care for your fur baby while you’re away!! I work from home so will be able to spend a ton of time with your baby. We have a good size fenced in yard and we love taking walks. So there will be plenty of outside time. I do have 2 little girls- 7 and 3 years old. They have lots of experience with dogs and absolutely love them! So as long as your dog is good with kiddos we are great 😊 I work from home so have plenty of availability throughout the day. I have 2 young kiddos that are in daycare/elementary school. So other than dinner/bedtime and a few evening activities we’re around. We have a good size backyard with 8 ft fence. We can crate your fur baby if needed or we have baby/dog gates and could leave him/her in a larger space if preferred if we’re gone. During the day, your pup can hang in my office while I work if they prefer ☺️

About: I have 25 years of experience as a pet sitter being self-dubbed the "overnight queen" as I specialize in overnight stays of any length. The dogs and I have FUN slumber parties during which I fully engage with and interact with them, playing with their toys and giving the most excellent tummy rubs imaginable! Owners are happy too as they return to a happy pet - dogs "tell" by their behavior and in over 500 pet sits, every dog has been safe, sound ... and happy! In fact, many owners say I did a great job because "my dog acted like it didn't even know I was away!" All dogs love me ... and I love them. Dogs are people, too - only better ! I am self-employed so can set my schedule, especially with as much advance notice as possible. I often bring my little 9 pound, Shih Tzu, which I keep and a carry crate and kennel that has worked out fine with both dogs and cats. We can arrange a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure everyone is comfortable. I have separate bedrooms if dogs need their own privacy, but I do try to have dogs interact and be friends. I have a long hallway to play fun games and go get it!

About: I’ve grown up around Animals my whole life and currently have a mini farm. I’m experienced with almost every type of animals including bunnies, reptiles, cats, dogs, fish, birds, and live stock and have been house sitting since I was 13. I am a huge advocate for animal assisted therapy and am currently attending college to get my degree in order to bring animals into my work as a psychologist. I’ve taken care of plenty of animal emergencies and even revived dying chickens. I’m not scared of getting dirty or anything else that comes with with taking care of your animals. I also enjoy sending picture updates whenever I can so the owners know what is going on with their pet. I would love to come watch your fur babies for you! I am currently in school three days a week and for only a few hours on those days, the rest of my time is free. I prefer to follow a daily check list of general tasks, then I play with them and their favorite toys or just give them company depending on your pets needs.

“Lily was remarkable. She was always on time. Report cards were always filled out, pictures provided. She always worked with me to change things up on how to give the dogs their walks, etc., with very little notice, which was greatly appreciated. I would recommend her to anyone and we will definitely be a repeat customer.”
