Lynn L.
Hello! I've been living and dog walking in our area for many years now and absolutely love it! It's always a bonus getting to know our clients as well as the pets I take care of. Our dogs are beagle mixes and with a vet as my significant other, we have a lot of fun working with animals regularly. Also have worked with gun dogs in the Wounded Warrior Program and trained two vizsla (bird) dogs in the past. Looking forward to taking care of your dogs and cats!

emily a.
Hello! My name is Emily! I am an avid animal lover and have had many types of pets: dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, guinea pigs, gerbils, hamsters, ducks, etc. I currently own two cats, Poppy and Louis. I have an especially soft spot for our senior pets, as many of my pets have lived into their teens. I have two daughters. One graduated from NCSU in 2023 and the other will be a senior there next year. I have been a teacher in CMS for the last thirty years and have found those skills a perfect fit for pet sitting.

Macey H.
Hello! I am a 25 y/o registered nurse. I have worked in the ER for 3 years but just recently took a new job as a nurse at a hydration clinic. I am a huge animal lover! I have two cats of my own that I absolutely adore and would do anything for. I would love to own a dog but lead a very busy lifestyle, so I live vicariously through you to care for your dogs (and cats)!

Alan S.
Hello! I have lived in Charlotte for about 25 years, went to college at university ofSouth Carolina , and am semi- retired. Love spending time each day with my dogs hoffman and cheese (and our three cats too!). And also love getting out to see so many other pets in my neighborhood - can never have too many four legged friends! Love the flexibility it gives me so I have plenty of time for golf, grilling, and hanging with friends.

Sabine E.
Hello! It has been a longstanding desire of mine to work in the veterinary field since I have always loved animals and been passionate about assisting them. I've had experience working with animals of various sizes and temperaments, and I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats. I presently hold both a veterinary assistant certification from Animal Behavior College and a biology bachelor's degree from Pace University. Reading, playing video games, and spending time with my two cats, Kirby and Leon, are some of my favorite past times. I also currently work as an Animal Care Tech in a cat cafe!

Aaliyah S.
Hello! I’m Aaliyah, a 21 year old Pre-vet student. I have always loved working with animals, as I grew up with farm animals in Puerto Rico. I currently have a toy Yorkie that was born on my bed almost a 9 years ago, her name is Nena and she is the smallest dog I have ever seen! I am studying to be a veterinarian during the nights and during the day I go to the gym with my sister, play with my dog in my backyard and currently I am taking language lessons with my younger sister for Korean. I have always been a dog owner, though I have also owned reptiles before, so I am very excited to meet and play with more dogs!

Maia T.
Hello! I’m Maia, and I’m a lover of all animals. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and was gifted my first puppy, Jack, at just one year old! I’ve had dogs, cats, horses, guinea pigs, and fish over the years! I currently have two sweet kitties named Figaro and Mister Business. I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a pet sitter and to get to know your sweet animals!

Aleshia Z.
Hello! My name is Aleshia Zenee'. I was born in Washington, NC (family is still there) but grew up in Central Florida. I came back to NC around 2010 and went to college here. I graduated from UNCG but also attended Bennett College for Women for two years. I have three pets, my first little furry baby's name is Odie Houdini! He is 6 years old and a Jack Russell/Dachshund mix. Not to exaggerate, but he's literally the coolest dog on the planet. Fun fact about him, he has a gluten allergy and I didn't figure it out until he was 3! I am also a new, first time Cat-mom to Frankie and one of her kittens, Lymon! Fun fact about them: I rescued Frankie and fostered all of her kittens then kept one of them so she wouldn't be lonely. :-) My experience includes working in Dog Daycares, pet sitting, owning pets, and of course dog walking. I have taken care of pets all of my life and have always felt a connection to nature and animals. I'm even vegan! :-)It's my promise to you that I will treat your pet as my own!

Jahnara L.
Hello! my name is Jahnara Lee I have been working with dogs since I was eighteen, I’m now Twenty-One! I have to fur babies myself and looking to show everyone’s dogs that same love and care!

Kori H.
Hello! My name is Kori, and I'm originally from Texas. I just recently moved to New York with my partner and two precious dogs (an Australian Shepard mix and a Doxin mix) Bean, my Doxin mix, suffers from anxiety, which requires a lot of patience and care. Asher, my Australian shepherd mix, is allergic to food, which also involves a lot of care and attention. Both of my dogs have a daily routine of a 30-minute walk every morning and every evening. They also get to enjoy time with their friends at the dog park every other day. Having been around all different types of dogs since childhood, I've learned to be a responsible dog and pet owner from a very young age. Dogs offer unconditional love and are incredibly loyal animals; they deserve that in return. :) During my free time, I enjoy hiking, bike riding, painting, reading, writing, playing my guitar, and teaching my fur babies new tricks! I'm excited to be a new member of the Swifto team and get to work with other wonderful dog owners providing the best care possible to their fur babies! :)

Mary M.
Hello! My name is Mary, and I’m a passionate animal lover and a recent graduate from Appalachian State University, Class of ’24. For as long as I can remember, animals have held a special place in my heart, and I’ve always had a natural connection with them. I rescued my beloved dog, Nova, and we spent my college years together, creating countless cherished memories. Nova was more than just a pet; he was my best friend, my study buddy, and my constant companion. Although he lived a long and happy life, passing away at the age of 13, his memory continues to inspire me to share the love and care I gave him with other pets. As a dedicated and reliable dog walker, I understand how important it is to ensure your furry friend is happy, healthy, and well-exercised. Whether your dog needs a quick walk to stretch their legs or a longer adventure to burn off some energy, I’m here to provide the attention and care they deserve. I’m excited to meet your four-legged family members and provide them with the love, attention, and exercise they need to thrive. Let’s create some wonderful memories together—one walk at a time!

Taylor W.
Hello! My name is Taylor, and I have been a pet owner for my entire life. I have had dogs ranging from a chihuahua to a great dane, and I love any and all animals. Outside of swifto I am a medical scientist. I can't wait to meet you and your pets!

Wendy M.
Hello! My name is Wendy and I have always been a huge animal lover. I grew up with dogs and cats and birds and bunnies and all kinds of pets. I’m currently a stay at home mom to 3 kids and 2 fur babies. I have a huge mastiff mix named Rufus that thinks he’s a lap dog and a sweet lab mix named Millie that my kids adore. I have a very calm demeanor which can help ease stress for shy cats and fearful dogs. My house can be a bit loud and crazy so I love to escape on long dog walks :-)

Alina L.
Hello! My names Alina, and I'm a lover of all animals all shapes and sizes :) I'm 18 and study psychology at City College, and am a proud dog mommy to a family of 3 personality filled Yorkies. :-) My 12 year old Princess stays full of energy, and loves to play with her two boys 6 year old Pollo and my year old Baby! (yes, his names Baby). The family used to be bigger, but unfortunately downsized when two of our babies recently passed due to Parvo. Growing up I've learned to view dogs and all animals more as family to me, rather than just a pet for me to own. When my two passed it truly felt as though I had lost siblings, or two really close friends. My goal is to build a connection with your dog (or dogs) strong enough to provide them with a safe and loving environment for our walks and time shared, and make them feel like they've found a new friend outside of home!

Zitaima P.
Hello, I’m dynamic, friendly and responsible. I like music, animals, sports and fashion. Eager to meet you and future furry friends!

Justin R.
Hello, I am Justin from Brooklyn New York but raised in Atlanta Georgia. I’ve always had love for dogs from a very young age. My first friend was a Pitbull by the name of Max super protective and friendly soul. I’ve relocated back to New York to pursue a career in photography and film/production while also taking a love for psychology at BMCC. On my free time I enjoy creating music and spending time with pets, friends, and family. I’ve encountered Dogs of all sizes and many breeds but one thing that stays consistent is the love and loyalty they bring to people. I am here to reciprocate that love and loyalty back with great service, patience, and care. Thank you for your consideration and it would truly be an honor to be trusted with your dog looking forward to meeting building with them.

Anaïs M.
Hello, I'm Anaïs. I have grown up my whole life with pets, whether it be dogs, bunnies, cats, or horses. The highlight of my day is taking care of animals and you will always find me outside making friends with them! I currently have my own cavalier king charles at home and I would do anything for him. I can guarantee you I would do just as much for yours!

Shontol J.
Hello, I'm Shontol, and I’m excited to connect with you! I have a deep passion for animals, particularly dogs and cats ,having owned several breeds throughout my life. Each dog has taught me unique lessons in care, empathy, and companionship, inspiring me to create a nurturing environment for all furry friends I work with. My experience encompasses various aspects of dog behavior and care, ensuring each one receives the attention and love they deserve while in my care. Outside of dog walking, I enjoy an active lifestyle that includes hiking, exploring local parks, and spending time in nature. I’m also passionate about volunteering in my community, where I contribute to various animal welfare initiatives. This balance allows me to connect with both animals and people, enriching my life and enabling me to create meaningful relationships with the clients I serve. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your beloved pets!
