Dog Walkers in Barnwell, AL

About: My household has always had a furry friend in it since the day I was born from small ankle biters like Chihuahuas to hefty cuties like my current Bully Pit that I can safely wrestle in some horseplay. Puppies, seniors, we don't discriminate 'round here! I don't mind getting my hands dirty and have small experience in clicker training younger pups along with an energy to match whichever personality I'm given. A boundless Collie? We can play all day! A sleepy old Bassett? We can chill with some TV. I'm not above being put to work either. Give me a litter box to clean. Give me medicine and I'll make sure it's getting swallowed. Toss a cat my way as well why doncha? I worked as a cat caretaker during my fall and spring semesters in Auburn University, as well as own a lovely kitten named Autumn, so having a feline to shake things up would be a nice treat! Trust me, my hands have a good pain tolerance. Beyond that, I know it costs major bucks to look after your pets. Or pay someone ELSE too. Sometimes a week stay for a pet can run up to $500! That's why you come to me. I offer affordable rates because I'm more concerned with the passion than the money. I have multiple pets of my own and I know the chip they can put in my wallet just from vet visits! So I won't let it get in your way! 🤠 I've graduated happily from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Sciences and am settling into a new job. This means that while I'm happy to take on new clients, my schedule is sporadic as it's determined on a weekly basis. It also means I will be gone for many hours at a time. My current work schedule and thus how long I'd be busy for Aug 11-17 is: Mon: Free Tue: 4-9:30 pm Wed: 5-9:30 pm Thurs: 5-9:30 pm Fri: 3-9:30 pm Sat: 4-9:30 pm Sun: Free Safety is a non-negotiable when it comes to our furry friends. Just like I do with my own pals, I stay by them at all times when outside and encourage their attention with toys or loving scritches when they're not doing their business. If push comes to shove, I am capable of safely wrestling an overzealous dog into calming down or tightening the 'ol leash if need be. With cats, responsibly scruffing rarely fails. Inside, unless stated otherwise where they're allowed to park themselves, I stay with my little friends on the floor and can crate them if specified to do so when it's bedtime. If they're free roamers, I let them tag along where I go! Except the kitchen. I also welcome animals who require daily or periodic medication. Bear in mind I charge $10 per day of administering medication, and it would cover all required meds for that day. Rest assured your friend will be taken care of!

“Always better than expected. On time, stays a little longer, puts in the perfect walk while factoring in the hot conditions. Coco just loves her. You can see it on her face via the pics she sends to update me.”

“Gwendolyn was amazing and even took Christmas pictures of my pup. She really worked with me since I was just passing through and wanted to eat dinner at Lamberts. She was flexible and accommodating. Highly recommend her. Also note this was my first time leaving my dog with a stranger and she made me feel very at ease.”

“Alyssa is fantastic! She has walked my dog multiple times in the past couple weeks and I cannot complain. I have requested that she come around lunch to walk Andi and she does her best even though it can be a super inconvenient time. Some of my friends who have happened to see Alyssa and Andi have always commented that Andi seems so happy with her. I definitely recommend Alyssa!”

About: My family and I currently own and care for nine animals, and that's not counting our two fish! We have four dogs who live inside, and they're all different sizes. We've got a large black lab, who we have raised since she was a puppy, a medium sized blue heeler, a miniature poodle, and an eight pound shih tzu. The other five animals are cats, one of which lives inside and we have raised since he was a kitten, and the other four are outside strays who have claimed us. I've dealt with puppies, senior dogs, kittens, and senior cats. I have experience with cleaning up accidents, litter boxes, giving pills, giving baths, taking walks, and playing. Our dogs range from small to large and 4 years old to 15 years old, so I am equipped to handle any age, size, or type pet you may have. I currently work part time at my church, at a barn, and babysitting. I'm pretty free to work around your schedule and take care of your pet when needed. I do not offer at home services, but for some reason I have to fill out this block. I apologize, but as you have read, we have far too many pets of our own to host anymore!

About: I have taken care of my neighbors dogs/cats/animals every since i was a little child. It wasn’t until about 6 years ago when I got my first dog. A Black Lab mixed with a Boxer. She was only 6 weeks. I trained her up to be the great well trained dog she is today! I currently have a job, but during the winter season I don’t get scheduled as much. Therefore that won’t be a problem, my only concern is my soccer schedule. I have soccer Monday-Friday from 3:45 to about 5:30-6:15 ish. Every week day I am available from 12-3:45 when practice starts, then am available after practice and on weekends. I feed them regularly, take them on plenty of walks, and give them as much attention as i possibly can. I play fetch with them, anything they like to do.

About: I've owned a Rhodesian Ridgeback, a Shi-poo, and now a Bernie Doodle. The Bernie doodle is three years old and kind and welcoming. The cat will hang out at a distance. I am retired and "working" from home. I have the time to commit to taking care of your pets' needs during the early mornings, daytime, and evening. Overnight if needed. My home has a fenced back yard. I am home all day so they will be let out often if staying here and am available during day for walks and check ins. Our house is calm and quiet. If at your home, your pet will be taken care of per your instructions. I love to play fetch, run them in backyard, walk them, and certainly love on them to make them feel loved, exercised, and relaxed.

About: I have pet sat since middle school and have since grown a list of references that I would be more than happy to put you in contact with. I have had multiple dogs throughout my life and have a chiweenie as of currently named Charlie! I would love to take care of your dog, cat, or even both if needed. I love spending time with your furry friends and ensuring you can stay worry free while away! I have a job I do work Monday-Friday with the exception of Wednesdays. Some of those days are half days where I will only work 9-1. I always ensure before accepting a job that I will be able to properly care for your furry friend. With most of the people I pet-sit for, I like to meet in advance to make sure the owner and the pet are comfortable with me being at the house. I do usually stay the night for most people I dog sit for, ensuring I can give your pets maximum potty breaks, play time, walks, water refills etc.
