About: I’ve taken care of dogs while babysitting, I’ve taken care of some dogs from this app, I provided exercise and entertainment for them. I recently cared for a senior dog who needed pain medicine every day. People have relied on me to walk, feed, and stay with their dogs for days at a time. I feed and change my own cat’s litters frequently, love them to death. I can mostly work weekends because of school. Would love to look after any dogs or cats. I can feed pets, go on frequent walks, get them to play with toys if they have any, change litter boxes, stay overnight to ensure the safety of the home and pets.

About: With 26 years of experience and a background in animal psychology, I specialize in training all breeds, including pit bulls, staffies, and bully breeds. I excel in both obedience and behavioral training, effectively addressing food aggression and other behavioral challenges. My experience includes working with animal control and breeders, and I’m dedicated to positive reinforcement methods. I’m a full-time Uber and Lyft driver looking to start a business in behavioral and obedience dog training. If successful, expect all my time to be dedicated to animals. I prioritize your dog’s safety and comfort at all times. I make sure their feeding and potty needs are taken care of, provide playtime in a calm and controlled manner to prevent overstimulation, and include brief, positive training sessions to reinforce skills they’ve already learned.
About: I have always loved animals. I started walking my neighbors dog when I was 15. I have dog sat for many ranging from family, friends, neighbors, and mutuals.

I am always available unless otherwise noted on my calendar. I do not have a dog in Auburn, only when I travel to Foley to stay with family is there a dog in the house. I will abide by the owners preferences but I don’t promise I won’t fall in love with your dog. I love all shapes and sizes of dogs and will take care of them as they are my own. I will give your dog as much attention as he or she wants.
