Dog Walkers in Yadkinville, NC

About: I’ve taken care of many different kinds of pets since I was a kid. I’ve walked dogs for my neighbors, fed horses, goats and chickens for family friends, and pet sat many other dogs and cats. I work from home at night, so I will be able to be attentive all day. My husband works during the day from home as well, so there will always be a set of eyes on your pet! I have a fully fenced yard. We do have 3 dogs but all are very loving and have gotten along with any animal they have met. We have a spare room that we can use to keep them separated if necessary, otherwise your pet will have free roam and will be treated like family.

About: Pets have always been a part of my life. I was raised with multiple cats and dogs, and from an early age developed a strong love and knowledge of caring for animals. I currently have two dogs and a cat, and have applied for this position because I truly understand the struggle of having to leave and find someone trustworthy to care for them while I am away. From puppies and kittens, to senior pets, I will provide your pet with the same love and attention that I would wish for my own. I currently work full-time as an Instructional Specialist. I am free in the evenings and on weekends with the exception of holidays and Summer break. I am free Monday-Sunday during summer months and holiday breaks. We have a large yard for walking and a clean and quiet home for your pet to relax. I have no children except for my own two pups. I will take care of your pet as I would take care of my own.

“Danielle took great care of my little Daisy! She came and walked her for 30mins for three days while I was at work. I would continue to request her for further puppy needs!!”

About: I've taken care of multiple pets of all ages, during the day and night. I make sure to always keep those entrusted to me under the best care. Whether it be playing and walking, to washing and grooming, you can trust me to put my all into everything I do. Pet care is currently my one and only occupation which means that no matter what I can find a way to fit all your pet related needs into my schedule. I take care of pets by doing the basics such as food and water, and outside time. On top of that, I use basic trust building exercises and activities to make sure your pets are not only taken care of, but are happy and safe so they can be ready for nail trimmings, baths, walks, and even bedtime in a cozy environment.

“Mike is an amazing dog walker, so great with my anxious dog Emma! He’s so patient and kind with her, she now lets him rub her belly - a miracle! I appreciate how thoughtful and considerate he is, even making arrangements for a replacement when he’s on vacation. Really puts my mind at ease knowing I have him to rely on during the day!”

I have a real passion for animal care and my utmost priority is to make sure the well being of your pet is at an all time high. I’ve also gone through online training courses for dogs and cats detailing proper care techniques. I recently started looking for a job but I will update this when / if it changes! Friday mornings are my only recurring schedule block currently. I can tailor the visit to how best it is to fit your pet’s needs.

“Alex is highly recommended by us and our dog, Duncan. Before finding Alex, we have never trusted the care of our dog or house to anyone. We can’t tell you how thankful we are for finding Alex!”

“My new rescue is timid and generally takes a while to warm up to people. I wasn't real sure if she would even allow a stranger for a walk. Abbie has accompanied my sweet Marlee the last 2 nights and she did great with her! Makes this dog Mom happy to know someone can help be there while I work. I definitely recommend Abbie!”

About: I have been taking care of family dogs since I was a young man. As well as independently pet sitting for friends from that point forward. I have a natural affinity for understanding animals. More so than I can communicate with people. I'm openly flexible at this point in time, 24/7, so I can most certainly make time for your pet care needs. Whatever they may be I am the happy owner of 2 beautiful Siberian huskies. A boy and a girl named Polar and Bella. Though they can be outside dogs, I prefer to keep them indoors due to the harsh weather climates. They have their own personal space in the house and I love and care for them with everything I've got.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs (house sitting, walking, bathing, etc.) since I was 16. My husband and I have a 3 year old German shepherd mastiff mix that we got when she was a puppy and is well trained as well as a 1 1/2 year old Belgian malinois mix. I grew up with dogs and cats in the house and have always helped take care of them. I’m currently working from home and only occasionally have to leave for things. My schedule is pretty open to my needs and I can easily work around things. I spend most of my time with my dogs and do anything for their health and safety and will treat your animals the same way. I love all animals and spending time with them.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I could walk, its always been my dream to continue to work with them, this is a step in that direction. I work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility where I let out feed, medicate and ensure cleanliness for all the dogs.(even diabetic and seizure dogs.) I have worked with different types of animals, all sizes, behaviors and needs. Im currently working part time 5am-1pm and ensure to not let it over lap, as well as taking breaks to let out pups if needed. I have 5 of my own dogs that Id be willing to use for a lil doggy day care playtime(as owner request). BUT they are separated from the area your animals will stay, we have a room down stairs that will be set up to your dogs needs. Our back yard is fenced and plenty of running room. We have toys of all kinds, beds, blankets and bowls. I am here to make your life easier and more stress-free while you're away from your fur babies! I want to make you and your dog happy! I will be respectful of rules of your home and animals.

“Cheyanne was an absolute pleasure to work with! I would recommend her to anyone needing a dog walker and I definitely plan on using her as services in the future. This was my first time using this service and I'm grateful that she provided me with updates and pix so that I could truly enjoy my vacation. My dog had an amazing time with her!”

About: I am a very attentive, friendly, and caring person, which is why I have decided to do something that allows me to express those traits. I work from home some days while simultaneously caring for my own kitties. This has allowed me to strengthen our bonds, and I would love to form one with your babies as well :) Any specific instructions left will be followed by myself. I am very attentive and I love to play with the fur babies. It is promised your pet will always feel at home whether we’re truly there, or in my home.

“Alexia was beyond amazing!!! Super flexible with my crazy work schedule. She did great with both of our dogs. Always kept great communication between and during her visits. This travel nurse greatly appreciates her!”

About: Hi! I’m Christina, and I’m passionate about animals! We are available for daily stays during your vacation, summer stays, and Sturgis! I’ve been pet-sitting for over 10 years, and it’s been a wonderful way for me to combine my love of animals with a flexible schedule. I started when I began working remotely, and I’ve had extensive experience with both in-home pet sitting and dog walking. I know how hard it can be for pets and their owners when they’re apart, so I always strive to make the experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Keeping your pets active and entertained is one of my top priorities, whether it's a fun walk, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I work full-time with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to spend a lot of time with your animals during the day. Plus, my fiancé , Jeremy, assists me with my services. Jeremy works full-time remotely in IT, which allows him to help with pet sitting and walking whenever needed. This means your pets will receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s for a short stay or a longer period, we’re happy to accommodate your needs and make sure your pets are well cared for and loved while you’re away. If you have any questions or specific requests, I’d be more than happy to answer them. We look forward to helping you and your furry friend! I'm a full time professional with a flexible schedule. I'm able to spend the majority of the weekdays with them and can spend all the time on in the evenings and weekends. I'm also available to check in or stay with your animals while you are in town for vacation and need coverage for a few hours. Their safety is my top priority while you are away. I keep a good eye on them and don't like to by physically away from them for long as I know it can be a hard transition sometimes.

About: I've Taken care of dogs since I was a kid. However in the last 6 years or so I've been relied upon by friends and family to take care of their pets in a more regular and formal way. I have experience following specific instructions regarding feeding, medicine and walking. I also have regularly house sit with the pet to give them the companionship they are missing with their parents away. I believe in prioritizing the pet and making sure they are getting plenty of love and attention in addition to their food and exercise requirements. It's important that a dog parent can feel that their pet is not only safe and healthy but loved as well in their absence. Currently I am working part time as a courier and have plenty of availability throughout the week. Depending on specific requirements my working schedule can be adjusted to accommodate. I follow the instructions provided by the parent. I will attend to the hygiene of the pet as needed if necessary. I believe in a gentle loving approach to interacting with animals. They need love and attention not just food, water, medicine and exercise.
