Dog Walkers in Arnoldsville, GA

About: My services include the basic outside time and feeding times, but leave room for walks, baths, and lots of playtime at the pet owner's discretion. I've worked with animals for over 15 years, have learned basic training techniques, been a pet sitter for several families, and have dealt with a variety of breeds (and sizes). Currently, I am living in the greater Athens, GA area with my Catahoula mix, Schatzie. I graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in Animal Science and have decided that I want to devote my life to working with animals. I would love to get to know you and your four-legged friend(s)! Why do I love dog sitting? I've been a dog-lover my entire life. I grew up with cats, and decided that for my 16th birthday I wanted a dog instead of a car. I grew up volunteering at the local CSRA Humane Society - from dog walking to helping the vet tech there, my love for animals grew. It’s where I adopted my first dogs, Lorraine and MJ. It's my passion for animals that then led me to study Animal Science in college, and through my studies, I gained valuable experience with a variety of species. I am happy to watch your dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, reptiles, and the like! Do I have experience administering medication? Yes; I have spent several years working along-side a vet tech, and have become comfortable administering a variety of medications and treatments.

“Emma is a lifelong pet lover. She's owned and lived with dogs from a very young age and has a lot of experience with pets, young and old. Emma has also worked as a professional in a regional 4H organization, leading many pet and youth interactions. You will be hard-pressed to find a more responsible and thoughtful pet caregiver.”

“She is the best with my Akita. She is always gentle, kind and you can tell she absolutely loves all animals. She walks our dog, feeds them, plays with them, and gives them lots of pets. We wouldn’t have anyone else caring for our cut baby!!!”

“Caroline did an excellent job with my dogs! I have 2 little wiener dogs and she did so awesome keeping them company while i was gone.”

“Danielle did extremely well with my dog! I would definitely recommend her to others!”

“Kate is a caring and gentle person who has a deep love for all animals and especially dogs. While her love shines through, she also understands that dogs need guidance and discipline. She is an accomplished trainer, using the clicker method, and I have seen the benefits of her training regime first hand, both for the owner and the dog. Mutual respect is clearly there when I see her interact with dogs and that is so important! I would trust Kate with any of my dogs, from a rambunctious puppy to a calm, older soul.”

“I’ve known Taylor for some years now and the one thing I can say is she cares DEEPLY for all kinds of animals. Has gone above & beyond to treat all animals like they are her own babies. Whether they are stray animals or her own pets she treats them with such love & respect that they never forget her. To say she is a good caregiver to pets is an understatement, I can honestly say I’ve never met, heard or been around ANYONE that loves animals more than Taylor. Anyone would be lucky to have her take care of their pets!”

“I recommend xionella. She is the ideal person to take care of your pet, especially if it is a dog, she will give you all her love and more, she is very affectionate, responsible, no one will take care of your pets better than you, how would she be, I recommend her 100% is a very special advocate and lover of pets. She has taken care of my puppies and she is the best of hers, because of her charisma, empathy and absolute respect for the most pampered in the house such as the furry ones.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old! Growing up I also have owned 3 dogs and 6 cats for most of my life. I also was a trainer for the guide dog foundation while I was in college so I have extensive training in dog training. I just love getting to spend my time with sweet pets and hope to get to spend time with your furry friend too! I am a 1st grade teacher in Clarke county on summer break right now. I have lots of free time on my hands right now so I am just looking to make some extra money. I am free to care for your pet day and night! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have the freedom right now to give 2 walks a day in order to make sure they are tired. I also have 2 loving dogs at home that love to play and meet new friends.

“Damica has been an amazing dog walker and has allowed me to not worry about Leilah during the day!”

“Anna has a strong intuition when it comes to animals. Not only has she watched my dog - I trust her implicitly - but I have seen her notice dog behaviors and illnesses that have literally saved a dog’s life. She is responsible, trustworthy and proactive in advocating for animals.”

“Hello, Sam is a pet person she loves her pets like her own kids. I've trusted her with my fur babies again and again. There is no one more fit to work with and love on animals than Sam. She is trustworthy, loyal, fair and and great person. I am lucky to call her my friend. I am more than sure that she will do well whereever she decides to work.”

“Scarlett loves animals and truly ENJOYS the chance to care for pets since she is a college student and is not able to have her own pets with her. She has experience with horses, dogs, cats, and cows! She is very responsible and takes her job seriously because she knows the animals are depending on her while we are not here to care for them ourselves. I would highly recommend her to care for pet sitting.”

“Nick is a great guy. He has taken care of my golden retriever several times starting at the age 6 month to current now 1.5 years. My dog bear has a lot of energy and Nick takes him for good walks, plays with him, keeps bear on schedule and communicates well. Nick also has a 6 year old dog and you can tell Nick is an animal lover. Nick is always on time and reliable. I recommend Nick for the job!”

“Emily is not only a great dog mom but a great pet sitter! She watched my two doggies when we went out of town and did a great job, letting them out, playing with them, and even providing pictures and video of our boys. She will take great care of your pets and keep you updated if they need anything. I highly recommend Emily!”

“I highly recommend Claire for all of your pet needs. She took care of my horses, cats, dogs, & chickens while we were on vacation. Claire treated all my animals as her own and I would not hesitate to hire her again. She communicated with me while I was away & always sent pictures and updates. She was very responsible ! Thank you again.”

She followed instructions well and even made multiple attempts to get my maltese to eat dinner. She also replied fast to my messages ! Kat is a great dog walker.”
