Celebrating 20 Years Caring for North Carolina Pets

Ensure your pet is in good hands with Asheville Pawz

Dog Walking in Asheville

Most dogs need breaks to get outside! Potty breaks can be essential and every pet loves attention. Exercise can be an important component of a happy and healthy dog. Instead of stressing about your pets while you work or are away, Asheville Pawz has your pets dog walking needs covered.

When you travel for work or head off on a holiday vacation, your pets are on your mind. We can ensure your pets stay on their normal schedule - at home - while you're away.

You've Got a New Puppy!

Puppies need love, attention, socialization, training and structure. Asheville Pawz can tend to your new family member's every need. Not just a visit for a potty break, our professional sitters understand puppies and what they need.

Miranda, Rick, and Lindsey took great care of my senior fur baby while I was on vacation. After each visit I received an email telling me about the visit, complete with pictures showing my happy dog getting lots of love while I was gone. It was great to know people that cared were looking after her.
Massiel Williams
Nicole is amazing! She’s not only incredibly professional, but she’s also very attentive & caring. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals. Both Nicole & James provided daily updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing that my fur babies ( 5y/o Yorkie & 1y/o Cavapoo) were in good hands. Nicole went above & beyond to ensure our fur babies were comfortable, well-fed, & entertained. Thank you so much Nicole & James!
William Cooke
Lindsey did a fantastic job caring for our three cats, two of which require medications and are extremely shy around strangers. The pictures and updates she sent every morning showed how well they responded to her. We'll definitely use Asheville Pawz again when we have to leave town.
Caitlin Constantine
The sitters from Asheville Pawz did a terrific job of looking after my cats, sending me photos and updates every day to let me know that they were doing well. You can tell they love animals as much as we do, and it shows in the kind of care they provide. The registration process was very seamless, and the app they use makes it easy to stay on top of everything. I would definitely recommend this pet sitter to anyone in the area who is looking for one!

This was my first time with Asheville Paws, and it was wonderfull!! The entire process was superior in every way from any previous experience we have had. From registration on the excellent website, to the constant communication during our absence (with great pictures) we were well aware of how well our pets were being treated. We can't thank you enough. And we will surely see you again.

I am pleased to know she came out of her shell right away

I am so happy that Ayla is being social. Many times, she hides from pet sitters for days, but she misses out on the cuddles she lives for when she does that. I am pleased to know she came out of her shell right away this trip, so she is getting her attention. Thank you for taking good care of my babies!
