Dog Walkers in Eight Mile, 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 July 28-Aug 3 is: Mon: 5-9:30 pm Tue: 4-9:30 Wed: 5-9:30 Thurs: Free Fri: Free Sat: 1-9:30 pm Sun: 10 am-7 pm 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!

“Dalton was absolutely amazing! We need a sitter for several weeks in a few months and I was very anxious about leaving my furbabies to be taken care of by someone else. I scheduled two dog walking sessions so the boys could get familiar with Dalton and it could not have gone better! They were beyond excited to see Dalton when he arrived for their second walk. I am so happy to have found Dalton and feel completely at ease with him watching my pups while we’re out of town.”

“This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. Charsy is such a nice and sweet person. Our dog looked so happy after the walks. She always kept me updated and made the experience to be a 10/10. She treated our dog so good and with a lot of kindness.”

“I gave Deanna a key to my place to walk my dog. She walked her for an hour, dropped her off and left the key. My dog seems like really life her. She was on time and everything was so smooth.”

“We love Crystal! She is very consistent and reliable which is huge to us. We work in healthcare so we need someone we can trust to let our dog at since we can’t come home. We will definitely continue to use her in the future!”

About: Pets have always been apart of my life! I grew up with a variety of breeds of dogs. I have even had a few pet birds! As a teenager & young adult, pet sitting has been a frequent side gig of mine that has brought me joy and a way to help support my growing family.

I would love to make your needs work around my schedule! I have a large backyard that is fully fenced. For your pets safety, they will always be supervised and not left alone outside or be exposed to extreme heat or cold. I take daily walks with my children and your pet, always leashed for safety.  I keep a large crate with comfortable bedding for sleeping. I do have 2 toddlers who adore animals & the entertainment that often comes along with them. Because of this, I can only accept pets that are known to be good with children.

The dogs are allowed to freely intermingle with each other and us as part of the family. Because this is our style we REQUIRE to meet your dog and evaluate their social skills to see if their a good fit for our style. Care and safety are our top priorities. If we discover your pet is not a fit for our style of boarding we reserve the right to seperate them from our other guest dogs, which may result in short periods of crating. We honor the Crate and Rotate System. This gives them an opportunity to have equal amounts of time interacting with the family as the others while the others guest dogs are given another area (dog room) to hang out in. Therefore ALL dogs must be crate trained for their own safety and well-being. . DAYCARE We offer monthly packages for those who are seeking to give socialization skills to their dogs. Most dogs should start at 4 months old for the best results. It is recommended that dogs only attend daycare up to three times a week for a well-balanced experience. We have found that dogs can become over stimulated, or grow agitated when allowed to interact with a pack more than that. Ideally 2x a week is best for a well socialized dog. However, we understand there may be a need to come everyday, for say a week while your getting your kitchen redone, or your in laws are in town and your showing them the sites. We can handle that too. You don’t have to have a package for daycare or for your dog to come and play for the day. PET SITTING We will come to your home up to three times a day for 30 minutes to care for your your pets. This is perfect for weekend warriors or short get-aways. What We Do •Give potty breaks/walks/playtime/TLC •Clean litter box •Clean domains (if necessary and within reason) •Feed & freshen water •Bring mail & pkgs in .Rotate lights, blinds. Tv/Radio • Send updates & pics of each visit If your going to be absent more then 4 days please consider using our house sitting service for a more rewarding experience for your pets and household for only the cost of a 4th visit. HOUSE SITTING When three visits a day aren’t enough we will stay overnight to give your pets a minimum of 10 hours of human companionship per every 24 hours. For dog households we include a mid day visit each day we’re in service. This service entails all the same benefits as our pet sitting service does, but with the added benefit of having us overnight. WE DO OFFER 24/7 Care $300 per night. With being allowed to leave up to three hours a day to care for our own households and errands. DOG WALKING We offer three monthly packages for those who are seeking ongoing service. You’re not obligated to purchase the monthly packages. However, they do offer discounts to those who make use of them. You can purchase up to 90 visits a month. The Rover app allows you to see our arrival & departure times and the routes we walk. We also send pics and updates of how the walk went. We only walk up to two dogs at a time. If you have more than two dogs either consider allowing for a longer visit or consider a backyard let out that includes exercise if requested. Thank you!

About: I’ve taken care of my family’s, neighbor’s, and friend’s pets since high school. I have experience with small and large dogs, puppies, and elderly dogs. I love animals so much, and have so much love to give as we don’t have a dog of our own right now. I am an active, stay at home mom to two young kids. They are both in school at the same time for two days a week, so I have that time completely free. I am also available some weekends. I am happy to travel to your home to take care of your animals, take them on walks, and give them plenty of love and attention and play time.
