Dog Walkers in Colbert, GA

About: As a dog mom, I know finding the right person to take care of your babies is crucial. Look no further! I have years of experience owning dogs, but I know most can check off that box. On top of that, I have over a decade of experience breeding large guardian dogs. I've learned through those years to expect the unexpected, and to think quick on my feet. I have always been sensitive to animals, and can assure you that your fur-child will be taken care of just as well as I take care of my own. Since I am a full-time online student, that means I am always at home, and able to take the time to really focus on taking care of your pup! I have experience juggling 20 dogs at a time so overwhelmed isn't a word in my dictionary. Since I am neurotic about my children, you can rest assured that I will give your dogs the attention and care that it not only needs, but deserves! I work part time from home as well as do my schooling online so I am able to easily shift things around to take care of all your pet's needs! I am a compassionate and loving person, with a soft spot for all things furry. I will treat your pets just as I do my own, like part of the family. I am patient and caring of your pets emotions and needs especially when dealing with someone they aren't familiar with! Never have I met an animal that doesn't love me, but I am ready and willing to take the time (and treats!) necessary to win any baby over.

“Riley had a great time with Destinee! He opened right up to her during the meet and greet and enjoyed spending time with her. He always looks forward to their walks and playtime!”

About: Hi, I'm Stephanie and I have two pups of my own. I enjoy sending updates along with pictures whether it's an overnight stay, a quick drop-in, or a walk, I'll keep you posted! My two pups (Rusty and Bindi) are friendly and comfortable around other pets, and if for whatever reason they don't get along with your pet, I have ways to keep them safely separated. I have worked with and around animals my entire life, and have never been more happy than when spending time with furry friends! I have experience working in a boarding kennel and am comfortable handling all kinds of breeds and sizes. Let me ease your mind while you're hard at work or relaxing on vacation. I will always be respectful of your home and your furry family member! I am always around to ensure your pet is receiving the attention, affection, and care they deserve. My schedule is very flexible, so if you need 1 or 3 visits a day, I'm your gal! I am adamant about safety, above all. If I am providing services in your home, I strive to protect your privacy and respect your home and space.

“Alicia was phenomenal! Prompt, personal, and very loving of my sweet dog. Very highly recommend and hope to leverage her dog walking services again!”

About: I have two cats, one 10 (Tiger), one 8 (Tuxedo) and a genuine love for all animals. I will follow your pet care instructions and ensure your pet receives top care and affection. I specialize in caring for your felines!! I am currently retired and available for your pet/cat care. I love animals. I don't even eat them!!! I've had animals all my life ranging from horses to cats, but I want to specialize in cat care as sometimes they feel like an afterthought. I can watch your cat in your home or mine (if they have shots) and it works. Although most cats are most comfortable in their own home. I love animals!!

“Hey again! Mike wanted to tip you more since you went above and beyond caring for Murray due to our travel delays, so.. thank you again! You're the best. Hope you had a great xmas and wishing you a very happy New Year!”

About: I have years of experience caring for animals in my hometown of Athens, Georgia. I grew up in a close-knit community where friends and community members solicited me countless times for pet-sitting services. I have provided services ranging from check-ins and walks, stay-in visits for days at a time, and boarding. I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes, including elderly pets and pets with disabilities. I have a flexible schedule that I will make work around you, and I will always commit to providing the most loving care for your pets. I’m currently working only part-time, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I do not have a car, so transportation is mostly by foot or metro, but I’m happy to go just about anywhere for a pet. I am very patient with pets, and like to give them plenty of time to establish trust with me when meeting for the first time. I like to work with incentives such as treats and verbal cues.

“Quick response and able to help when I was in a jam. Thank you so much for taking care of my sweet boys.”

About: I’ve grown up with animals! I’ve always had a cat to take care of! I got my first kitten when I was around 5 years old! ever since I’ve had an amazing connection with all animals but especially cats more than anything. I have watched over dogs many of times. I can handle a big dog but I am mainly used to small/medium dogs ahah:) I’ve currently have dealt with puppies and them being sick! I have learned many new things along the way! I am so excited to learn more things about animals as I watch over them. I have only ever pet sit once through rover, but I can assure you I have plenty of experience and knowledge when it comes to animals! Your dog/cat would be so lucky to have me watch over them:) I currently work a full time job, I usually work 10-4 Tuesday-Saturday I am currently in school working on getting closer to being a veterinarian assistant:)) my schooling is completely online though so I can bring it wherever I go. I am majoring in Animal Science! At my house I have a big back yard so the dogs go out can can play with lots of land and room to run and use the restroom! we no longer cage our 2 dogs, we also have gotten chickens and ducks:)) so please beware if you send your dog to my house to let me know before hand how your dog is with other animals and around farm animals! your dog could sleep inside with the other doggies or inside the sunroom! when I am gone! I tend to walk my dogs daily! I also have 2 kittens I am leash training so if your cat likes to go on walks I can work with that too!

About: I have loved dogs since I was a child and have had them all growing up. Professionally I have worked at a overnight dog boarding kennel for two years! I work Monday through Friday with autistic children but I’m available before and after work as well as the whole weekends to take care of your pups! I love to take care of dogs in their own home so that they will feel more safe and secure in the safety of their own space!

About: I have been house and dog/pet sitting for the past 5 years and adore working with animals! I am happy to help with pets who are more active and pets who just need someone to give them attention and be a comforting presence. I work with pets of all sizes and have lots of experience with senior pets who need more medical attention- This experience includes giving shots, pills, and applying topical medication! I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take care and play with your fur babies! I have a flexible schedule when it comes to fitting in walks and check-ins, I am usually working on weekend mornings and afternoons, but usually only for 4-6 hours at a time! I am currently unable to take care of your pets in my home due to a dog of my own who gets stressed around new animals! I can care for your pets in whatever ways they need, whether it be giving them oodles of attention, talking or singing to them, or simply just be in the room with them as a safe presence to ease yours and their minds!

About: I have raised kittens and puppies to adults. Pets make me feel happy and complete. I enjoy spending time with them either playing or walking. I want them to feel loved and secure. I have loved various dogs on my own. 2 of my dogs have been given K-9 off leash training. I understand how to be firm and alert when walking in public. I have worked at my friend's Boarding and Training business, The Training Spot on Nashville TN. I have been in charge of 25+ dogs to feed, play, and provide medication. There are always a variety of breeds and I have learned how to work with them all. I don't mind staying overnight. My fur babies will not be left alone as my husband will be home with them. I have purchased my own Pet Insurance which goes above for coverage than Rover. I have a very flexible schedule to be able to provide excellent service and attention to your fur babies. I am very good with time management and communication. I ask specific questions so that the fur babies keep their routine and stress free while I take care of them while the parents are away.

“I adopted my dog Charlie a year ago. She’s very attached to me and becomes frightened to be away from me. Sophia is very patient and gentle with her and Charlie is gaining confidence with each walk. Great communication and very friendly. I highly recommend Sophia.”

About: While I've had pets my entire life, I've professionally cared for the animals of others for nearly 10 years. While I was in the Army, I fostered for a local rescue and did the basic training and socialization for young, abandoned puppies to get them ready for forever homes. While pursuing my BS of Animal Science at ISU (Class of '19) I worked at Lloyd Veterinary Medical Hospital with equines of all ages, and spent several years as professional Animal caretaker working at the USDA with small animals. I have experience with dogs and cats, young and old, as well as rodents and other small animal pets, geckos, and freshwater aquarium fish. I am semi-retired, and work my own hours part time so schedule is flexible and it's easy for me to fit your pet(s) into my daily life Your pets will be most comfortable in their own environment, and I am committed to caring for them in a way most similar to what they are accustomed to.

About: From lizards to dogs & cats, I have been taking care of pets ever since I can remember. In recent years, I have cared for my family's elder dog Molly. Along side our puppy (whose not so puppy anymore) Bella. I am currently enrolled at The University of Georgia, where I live and care for 2 very fun cats, Juno and Ziggy. There are many times where I am the first to go to whenever any family member or friend needs care for their pet/pets. I am currently in the process of getting a part time job, so I am available at nearly all times of the day to care for pets. I will adhere to any instruction given to the dot. Whether it be closing doors at specific times or only letting them roam in a specific area, no matter the rules to care for a pet in or around ones home, I will follow exactly.
