Dog Walkers in Cottonwood, AL

About: Hi! Jen here! I’m a passionate, lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. From bottle-feeding kittens as a child to managing the quirks of senior pups, I’ve been lucky enough to spend most of my life surrounded by furry, feathered, and even scaly friends. At 35, I’ve turned my love for animals into a side-job, and nothing brings me more joy than making sure your pets feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s taking your dog on an adventure walk, keeping your cat entertained with their favorite toys, or making sure your exotic pets are thriving, I tailor my care to fit every animal’s unique needs and personality. When I’m not pet-sitting, you can usually find me hitting up the beach, exploring hiking trails, making sourdough bread, reading a good book, and I find myself ecstatic when any of those involve pets. I believe every animal deserves the best, and I’m here to provide just that for your beloved companions. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing pets! Let’s create a worry-free experience for you and a fun, loving time for them. My son has allergies, so we can’t have our own pets. This allows more freedom and flexibility for your pet. You need me, I’m there. I’m a SAHM, homeschooling mom, so I have a very flexible schedule. Your pet will be my priority during my time with them. If you allow, my well-behaved children would also love to help with responsibilities. If we need to house-sit, or stay with your pet for an extended period of time, we can easily structure our day around your pet and/or home. I am able to come to your home, walk your pet, stay with them, whether for extended periods or for short checkins - whatever is best for you and your pet.

About: Hi everyone! I've raised and cared for many types of animals my whole life! Growing up i'd rehab and release squirrels when needed (in CA), and have had quail, chickens, snakes, mice, rats, hamsters, rabbits, lizards, parakeets, finches, an owl, saltwater and freshwater fish, dogs, cats, volunteered cleaning horse stables, and grew up in the woods bonding with animals like deer and chipmunks like a little Pocahontas. I'm willing to learn anything needed to care for any kind of animal and won't back down from a challenge! I am available morning, lunch, and evening as well as most weekends. I'm easy to work with and flexible as long as my own animals and kids are taken care of first! I follow instructions and will always respect your wishes when it comes to care for your animal. Their safety comes first and i'll never jeopardize that! When caring for an animal, I understand they can make a mess and i'm happy to clean up. You wouldn't have to worry about coming home to your pets messes if it happens!

About: I've taken care of many animals in my past. I started around 13. I started with three huskys and one toy poddle so I am good with large and small breeds. I am currently working at a Mother's morning out daycare. I would love to help out with anyone who needs dog,cat, or any animal services!

About: Hi! I’m Megan, a lifelong dog lover with a heart (and home) made for pups of all shapes and sizes. What sets me apart? I treat every dog like family — not just with walks and feedings, but with play, enrichment, and genuine love. Whether your pup is high-energy, shy, or a senior who needs extra TLC, I tailor care to their personality and routine. I’ve got experience with everything from belly rubs to administering meds, and I keep you updated with daily photos and pup-dates so you never miss a tail wag. If you want someone who shows up with treats, toys, and tons of love — I’m your person. 🐕💛 I’ve worked with animals for years from rescuing dogs as a girl to the Birmingham Zoo! I currently work at Wags and Whiskers right here in Dothan! I recently left my 9-to-5 to focus full-time on something I truly love — caring for dogs! That means your pup will get my full attention, flexible scheduling, and lots of love throughout the day. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I offer in-home pet sitting with plenty of snuggles, playtime, and a calm, stress-free environment. Since leaving my 9-to-5, I’m home full-time — meaning your pup gets round-the-clock attention, companionship, and care. My home is safe, clean, and set up for comfort — whether your dog loves lounging on the couch, playing in the yard, or enjoying quiet time. I follow your pup’s routine closely, offer updates with photos and videos, and make sure they feel secure and loved every step of the way. Think of it as a mini-vacation for your pet — with all the comforts of home, and a sitter who truly cares. 🐶💛

“Shelley took great care of Stuart during their walk. She walked him until he was a tired little pup and he was perfectly content when I got home that afternoon!”

About: Im patient, attentive and love your pet as tho they were my own. I’ve had pets most of my life and currently own 4 small dogs which are part of my family. Im a student which allows me to have free time outside of my studies. I have a flexible schedule and I’m available most of the time. I have a fenced yard with four dogs of my own. If your pet was to stay with me they are free to roam most of my home excluding bedroom. I work with whatever schedule the owner may like, or they can just flow into my own pets schedules.

About: Animal advocate since the age of 5. I have had snakes, turtles, birds, cats and dogs my entire life. I have delivered, raised and trained many litters of kittens since I was 10. My family owned Wet Pets where I spent every summer growing up. It was a little girl’s paradise. I have helped many turtles cross the road and our most recent fur baby jumped in my car at the Dollar General and I really think he was trying to rescue me because a wasp flew in the car. The workers in DG said people moved and just left him 😢 wasn’t sure how he and our German would get along but it’s like he has always been here! So we have a 100 pound German Shepherd (Fitz) and a brindle pit mix (Saber) so when my daughter walked in with a 2 pound kitten….sure why not. We absolutely love our fur babies and promise to treat yours no different! I am in education, so I can’t leave during the day but my pups walk me every morning. They are way to rotten to stay outside so they are definitely inside all day in their bedroom which has a full size bed, sectional, and they have their own TV. My son come home at lunch to check on them. I get home around 3 and we go outside. Then when my daughter gets home they get to play again. I really feel like i am describing how I would care for one of my kids because they are treated no differently. I would prefer to care for your babies in your home. My pups are VERY sweet and love to play at the dog park with other dogs but I would rather not chance bringing new friends in. But with that being said once we all get to know each other and maybe a few trips together to the dog park. I would have absolutely no problem bringing them over. If there is ever situation and you need to bring them here like I said mine have the whole end of the house and we have a fenced in backyard so keeping them separate would not be a problem!

“Madison was great w/my dog! She’s patient, attentive & really understands her. Dewey needs patience when she’s new to someone & Madison gave her that space & time that she needed. Madison kept me informed & asked about things if she was unsure about something.”

About: I’m a nurse, mom, and wife, and I love all animals. I changed my availability to reflect my work schedule. I work 3 days a week. I grew up taking care of horses, dogs, and cats. I treat all animals with the kind of care and attention they require to be happy! We have two dogs, Brando and Mila, a large fenced yard for them to run, and a 2 story house with plenty of space. Our dogs are spayed and neutered. My husband and I have three crates, but we never keep our dogs locked in the crates. They stay in the kitchen with food and water when we aren’t home. On my available days, I will be home unless I have to run to the store. Please consider reaching out to me to take care of your pets!

About: I have taken care of all animals since I was young. I have worked at a doggy day care for a year where I provide the animals a stress free and relaxed environment. I have also volunteered at numerous animal shelters over the years. I am currently working a part-time job and am in school, but I am free any day to check up on your fur babies. I have classes Tuesdays and Wednesday, and my work schedule varies weekly. I have a fenced in yard where I keep my two animals during the day and they sleep inside during the night. I work with the clients to understand their pets daily routine including feeding times, exercise routines, medications, and any special requirements there may be.

About: We have had several dogs over the years. We have adopted dogs to help them get healthier and were able to put them back into adoption a healthier dog for others. I am home all the time and my daughter is here a lot also. We both love keeping animals. She is super good with dogs and cats. Ruth is 23. I prefer keeping the dogs and cats in the back yard. They can even come on the back porch for hanging out. I am just not able to keep animals in the house.
