Dog Walkers in Franklin Springs, GA

About: We don't have children of our own so our dogs are our family and we'll treat your dogs like family. My husband and I have taken care of dogs since we were little. We love going for walks and just spending time with them. Your dogs will receive lots of love and attention while your gone. I'm currently working from home full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups. When my husband gets home from working the day shift, we're always in the back yard doing activities with the dogs. We have a huge fenced in back yard and three wonderful fur babies to keep your dog company. We don't let the dogs outside in the yard unsupervised. We can also crate your dog if it's needed.

About: I grew up in agriculture caring for all sorts of animals. From raising my own show hogs to rasing 20+ rabbits, to my own dogs, and working in Veterinary hospitals, commercial swine and poultry industries, I have seen it all! I have a two German Shorthaired Pointers, one that is 3 years old and another that is 2 years old. My husband and I upland hunt with them all over the state of Georgia and beyond. I also have a 16 year old Beagle/Min Pin mix who is my heart and soul and is a couch potato. We recently had our other dog who was a Red Heeler/Australian Shepherd who sadly passed away from cancer. I am capable of caring for pets of all ages and energy levels!! I do have a full time job in the Poultry Industry in Gainesville so I will be gone during 6am-2:30pm. Most families I pet sit for have no issues with that, but others require someone to be there all day. If you have any scheduling questions, please feel free to reach out to me. From my experience from working at a local animal hospital in Gainesville, GA along with working in the Poultry and Swine industries, I have ample amounts of training in animal welfare. Whether you have a household pet or farm animals, I am confident that I am capable for caring for any kind of pet! With my 3 dogs that very from young to old, lazy to high drive and energetic, I create a safe environment in my home so my dogs are safe and free of unnecessary harm. With our hunting dogs, my husband and I train them year round and exercise them at our family farm to give them the mental stimulation they need so they don't ruin our house! During bad weather, I usually prepare lick mats, raw-hide free bones, or some kind of enrichment treat.

About: I know how stressful it can be for owners to leave their pets. I want to give people peace of mind, knowing their dogs are safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m a stay at home/ work from home mom with a 7yr old son and a one yr old friendly Frenchie. I have plenty of time to love your baby just like mine. I have a lot of property and most of it is fenced. I go outside with them every 2-4 hrs. More if needed. If you feel more comfortable with your baby on a leash we can do that too. We can play fetch and have lots of treats! (If allowed of course!) A lot of love and belly rubs.

“Michaela took wonderful care of our pups while we were on our vacation. She even sent pictures and updates while we were away. I will definitely be using her services again soon and highly recommend her to anyone. This is my first time using Rover and I was extremely nervous about a “stranger”. I’m so blessed to have found Michaela!”

About: I’m a fun loving dog sitter. I love playing with dogs, walking with them, and giving them tummy rubs. Being lazy is another quality I’m good at when me and the dog(s) don’t have anything better to do. I really do love animals. Their like fluffy teddy bears. Dogs deserve all the love and attention in the world. Weather they act crazy or not If the dog misbehaved then I would lightly pop it on the nose and say no but if the dog was nice then I’d give it tummy rubs

About: I am a pet lover at heart! I have owned/fostered 13 dogs and 4 cats in my lifetime so far. I currently own 1 dog named Diesel who regularly attends doggy daycare in Athens. I work hands on with dogs and cats every day and have 3 years of experience in feeding, medicating, and hands on dog-to-dog socializing. I have a huge heart to foster pets and have done so with ages from Puppies to 10 years of age. I have fostered non-hearing and non-seeing pets as well as plenty of experience administering medication to dogs who are diabetic and require insulin. I work a full time job, but when planned in advance I can request off or specific hours if needed. Would need a notice of 2 weeks or more. I am more than happy to host in your home and can either bring Diesel my 70lb dog, or can arrange him to be at my home with my boyfriend as well. Either is completely fine for me! If you are seeking for me to host in my home: I reside in a 24 foot camper as my current tiny home, so most cases I cannot hold other pets with me unless special cases occur where size, needs, temperament, and such are approved to successfully accommodate them. I would prefer to meet them prior and have a relationship with your pups to be sure it would be a good fit for both parties.

About: I focus on personalized care for every pet, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. I have experience in training puppies and providing amazing care for senior pets, I can assist to their unique needs. My goal is to make sure your pet has the best and most comfortable time while you’re away! I work a part time job so I’m able to cater to your pets needs! I am available Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday after 2:30 for day sitting and pet walking. And Wednesday and Sundays I’m available all day. I am also available for pet sitting over night. I take a personalized approach to pet care in your home. I stick to your pet's routine, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime, to keep them comfortable. I also make sure to provide plenty of love and attention, ensuring they feel secure. I maintain a clean environment and follow any instructions you have to make sure your pets are happy and healthy while you're away!

About: I'm a living cliche' : Reclusive award-winning best-selling novelist on the lake (I work outside--lakeside--when weather permits). I don't see many humans...I prefer dogs; they're my muse. And the more, the merrier. My life revolves around my own 2 dogs, and they love company and play-dates! I work mostly outside, if weather permits, under my huge covered patio overlooking the lake. With plenty of supervised playtime, your dog will have endless opportunities to engage in fun activities and exercise with George & Steve, while enjoying a huge view of the lake and the forrest. My yard is fenced in with plenty of room for the dogs to play. My home is is designed with my pets' comfort in mind. Cozy beds, tons of toys, and soft blankets... and social-sleeping (sleeps in Pack Mama's room with the pack on the bed--or on a dogbed on the floor) for companionship and comfort. Crates available upon request.

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 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.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 5 years now, from dogs to frogs! Some of my own and some from others I give each animal the love and care that they deserve. I love being outdoors in any climate whether that be hiking, jogging, or simply sitting in a field. I’d be more than happy to burn some energy with your fur baby! I work part time during the night which leaves lots of free time during the mornings to walk, feed, and check in on your pets. I occasionally have classes during the week, so I’ll already be up bright and early! I will provide your pets with loving attention, frequent walks and bathroom breaks, even playtime. I am sure to create a safe environment for your fur babies, if that means a mini play date or introduction session before sitting I am down for it all. I will stay loyal to the given instructions with proper feeding times and administer medication if/when needed.

“Perfect communication, reliable, and my dog loved Alexis. Thanks!”
