Dog Walking Ellerbe Woods

About: I used to work in the pet grooming industry from 2013-2021 bathing dogs and making sure the dogs in the daycare were being watched, taken care of, and having all the enrichment they need. I am willing to bathe and blow out dogs depending on size and fur type for a fair cost if you ask! I do have all equipment including a forced air dryer and I always have fabric on hand for bandanas 🥰 I dont have the service listed as I simply dont feel it fair for smaller dogs or dogs with short hair to overpay with the only option being 1 price. I have a dog and cat of my own and understand body language and behavior in both dogs and cats. I rescue my pets and typically grab the ones that may be overlooked and passed up. All my pets, including my late dog, the lab in photos, all have medical needs and requirements ranging from gastrointestinal issues to neurological. I am familiar and comfortable with giving medication. Its very important for me that my pets are in excellent health so I completely get it when an owner is not wanting extra snacks or a walk to be skipped! As someone who recently experienced a senior dog in my home, i am very understanding and patient with elderly pets. I am also in the hobby of fish keeping and have some exotic critters like hermit crabs 💞 I have been a stay at home wife and mother since 2021. My day starts with letting my dog out to potty after the long night then straight to feeding my dog and indoor cat. I then go and check on all my tanks, counting critters, making sure everyone in tanks is good and turning lights on. My dog goes out several times a day and outside of errands and the occasional day out with friends, I am always home to make sure there are plenty of potty breaks. In the evenings I feed all the tank critters, and double check to make sure everyone is well before I shut tank lights off and feed my dog and cat. Finally, my dog goes potty 1 last time before bed! I do hace a fully fenced in backyard but anytime we leave the property, we ensure all pets are leashed. I do not let my dog outside unsupervised and no dog in my care will ever be outside unsupervised for any amount of time regardless of the fence. I have 3 cameras for my backyard that i minitor constantly as well. I belive in always leashing a pet in public and never approaching other pets whether it be with or without a leashed pet of your own. If a dog is a known puller on walks, i do prefer to walk with a slip lead. I do have crates in the home along with built in gates. During boarding, my dog stays in the bedroom and office areas, and our guest dogs stay in the living areas. Any dogs in my care must be up to date on all vaccinations and flea medication, must not jump gates or fences, and must be crate trained and potty trained. These are all for safety reasons and to make sure things go as smoothly as possible for everyone involved.

“I can't say enough great things about Stephanie.I'm recovering from a total hip replacement I would leave the door unlocked and she would get the girls walk them and even get them their treats when they got back. My girls are very Leary about going off with someone else without me in their sight. They warmed up to her in no time to where they were waiting and watching for her.”

Sharon D.

“Very communicative, showed up early to walk the dogs”

David M.

“Brianna has been great! She’s very responsive and communicates with us well. And she’s very good with our 9 month old German Shepherd, and quite forgiving since her puppy energy can make her a lot to handle. We’ve had an issue with her jumping, and Brianna reached out to us to help solve the issue. Highly recommend, and we will continue to use her as a dog walker while we’re here!”

Victoria U.

“Jaden came over to walk our dog Ally with very short notice and was a pleasure to coordinate with. Ally was tired out from a great walk. Highly recommend Jaden! Thank you!”

About: I work with Chimpanzees at Chimp Haven! I also have two amazing cats named Bellion and Kid! In addition I also have a bearded dragon named Thor. I have had animals since I was 3 and I have been caring for animals since then. I have experience walk training dogs and I have plenty of regular training experience as well. I use to volunteer with multiple dog and cat no kill shelters where I would walk, play, and groom with both dogs and cats. I would also go to events and communicate with potential adopters for these dogs, as I did these events I would be walk training the dogs so that when they get adopted they would know! I do work a full time job from 7am-4pm every day. My evenings are completely free and I currently have Saturdays and Sundays off from work so I am free all day on those days to help train or walk pets! Since my evenings are free I can check up or even stay the night to take care of your babies! My cats and lizard are very spoiled in our home. They get fed twice a day and plenty of love and play time. I absolutely adore animals and I want to make sure your pets are taken care of while you're at work or vacation!

About: I can train puppies tricks like sitting, laying down, standing up and rolling. I don't have problems giving medicine. I cut nails and give baths along with brushing if wanted. Right now I'm waiting for the start date of my new job. I've available everyday no matter the time. Once I do start work I'll be available in the mornings and evenings. I've very attentive, I'm always making sure my animals are healthy and at least appear happy. Making sure my animals have enough exercise and stimulating toys. I hope to care for your animals the best I can and to the standards you provide.

About: I love working and meeting new dogs. Being able to provide one-on-one time with your fur baby is important to me and I look forward to forming new bonds. I have time throughout the day and evening for drop ins and walks. Ensuring your pet has attention and is loved is the number one priority for all visits. When caring for a pet in a client’s home I like to ensure the pet has an enjoyable time. I am flexible to do walks and rubs to keep your pooch smiling.

“I was very nervous for my first dog walking experience but she made me feel much more comfortable by sending me photos of the trip and being very professional about it.”

About: Thanks so much for giving my family the opportunity to be the “home away from home” for your precious pets! I am married with a 19 year old animal loving son (who pops in occasionally from college) and a husband that is in the medical field which is an added measure for health safety when dogs are staying at our home. We share our home with our two female Dachshunds that live for car rides. I am an active volunteer with the National Great Pyrenees Rescue and foster Great Pyrenees rescues so I am used to all types of behaviors/personalities with different dogs and helping them to all get along together under one roof, even if just temporarily. I have plenty of experience as well as good instincts and judgement where dogs are concerned; thanks to so many years of rescue work and a lifetime of having dogs in my home. I live in south Bossier in a small and quiet gated subdivision. I have 6 foot vinyl fencing around my backyard which provides a safe area for visiting dogs to be able to run around and play. We also have a small doggie door. My family does everything possible to make sure that every dog that comes to our home is comfortable and as happy as can be. They will get the run of the house and can lay/sleep anywhere that they want... just like our own dogs. We have plenty of toys, chews, and treats for our visiting dogs. At my house, we work together as a family to take the best care of your dogs because we know how much they mean to you- just like our dogs mean to us: they are our world! My husband is in the medical field so he is able to assist with any special needs that a visiting dog may have. I am a stay-at-home mom to a teenage son which means I have a very flexible schedule and I am home with dogs most of the day. Safety is always my main priority when I am with your dogs. Whether your dog is staying at my house or I am doing drop-in visits at your house, I am focused on their safety.

About: I have 4 dogs of my own and one cat. I have cared for pets as long as I can remember. My dogs are all house trained and crate trained they also are well mannered and like other pets. I can house train and also train dogs to do certain tricks. I'm 27 years old and own my own home with a large fenced in back yard. My house has no carpet so accidental pet messes can be cleaned easily. I have my own transportation to house sit or dog walk any time I am needed. Thank you for considering me for taking care of your pets I currently work full time split shifts so I can take care of animals between shifts before shifts and after shifts. I have reliable transportation to and from also I have a large fenced in back yard and I currently work in the animal field so I am trained on medication management and also have vet tech experience.

About: I’ve loved animals since I was young. I grew up with goats, cats, dogs, bunnies, and many more fun critters. I find a lot of joy being around animals. When I was 9 I helped my family’s pet goat give birth and helped raise them until they were rehomed to different farms. That is just one of the many fun stories I have from growing up surrounded by a variety of animals. I’m pretty comfortable with all personalities of pets and am very accommodating to specific routines and lifestyles. I used to work at a pet hospital so, that educated me on how to care for injured or sick pets. As well as, how to handle different behaviors of pets to benefit their safety and day to day life. I believe that all pets deserve kind and loving care no matter the age. I’m currently a stay at home wife with plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available Monday-Saturday all day and Sundays after 12 PM, unless we make special accommodations for overnights or other accommodations. I live in a quiet neighborhood and have a large fenced in yard with plenty of room for playing and exercise. I also have two dogs that love making new friends. For boarding at my house I like to let the dogs have plenty of outside time. Whether it’s in the backyard playing, going on a walk, or a trip to the dog park. I’m also up for quiet days with snuggles on the couch. I am happy to crate your dog if requested- one of my dogs are crated when they are home alone due to anxiety so I understand the necessity if needed. I also have indoor cameras to monitor my pets while I’m not home, so your pets will always have an eye on them even if I’m not physically there to ensure their safety. For overnight stays in your home, it is completely up to your discretion how you’d like me to care for your pets. If you have special instructions for your pet care I am open to almost anything, I don’t think any ask is too big or too small.

“Alyssa is the absolute best! My Bernedoodle loved her immediately. She walks her and does daycare at her house and it has been a life saver! My pup always has so much fun! Her kids are so sweet with her too. Would definitely recommend !!”
