Contact-Free Dog Walking
Keeping You And Your Dog Safe Is Our Priority
Working from home can be stressful – especially when your dog gives you sad eyes all day because you aren’t giving them your full attention. We’ve introduced Contact-Free Dog Walks to help make your work day a little easier and keep you safe.
We’ll take your dog out for a fun walk so they can get some fresh air and exercise while you stay focused on your work. Don’t feel guilty anymore – we can help make sure your dog gets the attention and love they need!
Our Contact-Free Dog Walks are easy and safe for you. Here’s how they work:
How Contact-Free Dog Walking Works
- We’ll have our mask on when we arrive at your door.
- Then we’ll ring the doorbell to let you know we’ve arrived for your visit.
- Put on your mask
- Then put your dog’s harness and leash on inside your house.
- Open your door just enough to let your dog out the door.
- We’ll clip our leash on your dog and unclip your leash.
- Then you’ll close your door and we’ll be on our way for a fun walk!
- When we return we’ll open your door and let your dog back inside.
These steps allow us to provide you with a safe, contact-free dog walking visit and it maximizes your dog’s time outside for lots of exercise and fun!
If you’d prefer no interruptions to your day and have a fenced-in yard that is accessible to us, you can also get your dog suited up and put them outside right before we arrive so we can pick them up from the yard. Just let us know your preference and we’ll make it work.

What a wonderful service! We were visiting Charleston with our pup and wondering how we could take advantage of all the local cuisine with her in tow. I was thrilled to learn about Charleston Dog Walkers! They were prompt & professional! We got a report and fun photos after each of their visits!

After meeting Lynn, I knew Rexie would be just fine with her. In fact it was meant to be. Rexie loves the attention Lynn gives her before and after her walks. Lynn’s journals are the best. I highly recommend CDW! read less
Chelaney Lane2/27/2022I had a GREAT experience with Charleston Dog Walker. Mallory Cooper was incredibly thorough in our Onboarding Call and our walker sent us adorable photos and updates that made me feel so comfortable that my pup was away while we were away.

I also work long hours and travel from time to time. I first discovered Charleston Dog Walker when I had to travel for my sister's wedding. The friendly, professional staff came for an on site interview to meet me and my pets. They learned about the animals' routines to make sure they would be able to care for them the same way that they were used to.
After the first visit, I got an email that contained a detailed narrative of how the animals were and what had been done (walks, bathroom, litter, food). It also included great pictures, and even allowed me to communicate directly with the caregiver. I got pictures of my dog on the walk, I got pictures of the cats, pictures of clean litter, and pictures of full water. This put my mind at ease as I was in another state and away from my pets.
I had not inquired as to the cost of the service before booking it and taking off because it was essential that I have it, regardless of cost. I had a great trip and I could see three times a day in my email that my pets were also having a good time and being well cared for. When I received the invoice I was very pleasantly surprised at how affordable it was. After the high quality of the service, I was expecting it to be much, much more.
I have continued to use Charleston Dog Walker as I am gone at work regularly for too long to leave my pets alone. For the last 13 months, Charleston Dog Walker has come to my home at least one time every week, usually more, and my pets always look forward to that day and are very happy when I get home. I look forward to it as well because I am not worrying about my pets while I am at work.
I depend on this service and the wonderful person and people who care of my animals when I am gone. They are trustworthy, reliable, kind, professional, and most importantly my animals love them.
I am so grateful for Charleston Dog Walker. If you need help caring for your animals when you are away or someone to take your dog on a nice walk, give them some love and treats I would highly recommend this company! read lessDanny Sullivan3/11/2021Ten stars!!I got my puppy sooner than expected and needed someone to come in immediately. I wasn't sure who to call, but after reading reviews, chose Charleston Dog Walker I have absolutely no regrets and grateful I found these dependable and trustworthy sitters! I feel like they are family.

We were hesitant to let others in our home while we were gone, but the care and attention that CDW provided was the perfect level of service, attention to detail and communication with us. Our pet sitters even learned the names of our dog’s toys! Each visit the pet sitter (we love Lynn and Carli) would leave us a summary of the activity and pictures to go with. We could always count on the CDW team to be on time, careful with our pets and super easy to work with. Highly recommend! read less
