Dog Walkers in Killen, AL

“So thoughtful!”

About: I began caring for pets in my town through Facebook when I was 13, and I have been responsible for numerous types of dogs and cats. Animals have a soft-spot in my heart, and getting to meet new pets has always brought me joy, so I figured I’d give this a shot! I have experience with all requirements of pet care (feeding, walking, some training, bathing, etc.) and would love to meet your pet!! I am completely available for most days. I am involved with theatre, so some nights I have rehearsals, but they don’t last long and can be missed if absolutely necessary. I have plenty of references for households that I’ve cared for in the past, and I have experience with both house and dog sitting. I’ve taken good care of homes (including household chores) and fur babies for as long as I’ve been doing this and don’t plan to stop any time soon!

About: I've had my own dogs since I was 6 when I first moved to Florida from Tennessee. We had 2 basset hounds that taught me responsibility starting from a young age. The responsibilities included, bathing, feeding, grooming, walking and playing with the dogs (with some help for the first couple of years since i was so young). Then when I was in high school I started watching my teachers pets which included a cat named Daisy who I would feed, clean the litter box and cuddle with. Then a dog named Hollywood who was on the older side and need to be watched for seizures, given medicine, feed, and walked. I also house sat during the duration of watching the dogs throughout the day and sometimes over night. Then I watched a dog named Dallas who would come to my house for weeks at a time and I would feed, bathe, groom, play, walk and sometimes go to the dog park during the week I would watch him. I used to have a holland lop eared bunny who i took care of 24/7 and did everything thing for including the vet and nail clippings. I have a pretty flexible schedule and could do ongoing long term pet sitting and arrange my hours as needed. My main job is to you and your pet. I am currently not working and stay at home with my children. I am good with either long term durations or just a quick trip to watch your fur baby. I am super flexible since i don't have another job. I live in a 3 bedroom house with my boyfriend his dog Simba who is outside, my toddler son Landon, my 1 year old jamie and my dogs Brandi and Simba. We have all dog things so if you forget something im bound to have it. The front yard is super big and i have a long leash pole to just sit outside and play a while without being on a walk leash. We prefer crate trained incase dogs need to be put up at night for no accidents or unwanted destruction and my dog is also crate trained to for night time. I do go on 4 main walks throughout the day and occasionally to play on the long leash out front or just a out back in the fenced back yard. I have tons of toys and treats also. We have a gate to separate areas incase your pet hasnt been around children so they have their own areas in the house.

About: I have 3 beautiful children of ages 17, 4, & 3. I managed a local credit union before coming home to manage our household! I have had an animal in the house for over 20 years until recently, everything from a new born puppy to 13 year+ elderly dogs. Reach out to me for more info I am a homemaker, so my schedule is fairly open at all times. I am free from 8AM-1PM, then 4PM-8PM Monday-Friday. Weekends are open at all times. I have stayed overnight for multiple nights for some families that I have house/dog-watched for. I have let animals out for just a 30 minute outside/bathroom break. I always have my phone with me, and provide outstanding communication to the home/pet owners at all times.

“Haley was wonderful when I needed someone to watch my dog for a few days. My dog is typically very nervous in new places, but she was always excited to go to Haley’s house! Haley’s little boy was always so sweet with her and I knew she was well cared for. Haley and her family are wonderful people and I know my dog always has someone I can trust to watch her!”

“I have know Teri for almost 20 years. I trust her with my children as well as my pets! The animals love her and she’ she provides a safe space and room to run. Not to mention the numerous outings they tag along for! Her rates are reasonable and availability has never been a problem! 10/10 will always be using her in the future for all my pet spring needs!”

About: What sets me apart is my comprehensive pet care experience, spanning from training puppies to providing specialized senior care. Additionally, I have a keen eye for photography and love capturing the unique personalities of fuzzy friends through stunning images. Trust me to not only care for your pets' physical needs but also to create lasting memories through beautiful photographs that you can cherish forever. Currently I am a student at Howard University. My schedule is solely based off my classes and the extracurricular activities I am doing at the time. I will only be walking dogs at the moment since I am in school but I will always have water and treats on hand when I am caring for the pups!

About: I have grown up with all kinds of pets of all sizes. I raised and crate trained 2 puppies and have always had cats around! I am free any day! I have time to take care of my animals and can make time to take care of yours when needed! I will take the best care of your animal and your home when I am house sitting. I will make sure your pet has enough play time outside and gets lots of love and attention inside.

About: I have been a dog owner for over 10 years. I grew up with a large dog and have a huge desire to train and give love and attention to all dogs. I have a flexible schedule so I can drop in on your dog 2-3x a day and work with them on training, and take them on walks to wear them out mentally and physically. No care provided in my home at this time. I can come to your house and provide walking, attention, and training there during times that are best.

“I would highly recommend Presleigh to anyone and everyone. She's got a great personality, is dependable, arrives on time, and best of all. . .my two labs adore her. When she comes, they're thrilled to see her. One of them, Johnny Cash, gets so excited that he starts running like a wild, crazy dog all around my apartment.”

About: I grew up caring for animals on our farm and have always had a deep love for them. My own fur baby Moge passed away last year. He was such a sweet nugget who gave me plenty of experience. I understand how to read animal’s behavior and listen for cues of distress/anxiety. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and breeds. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own and will respect boundaries and rules that you have in place for their training and schedule. I was always a frequent visitor at our local dog park, we might have even met! I currently have a flexible schedule and I am able to accommodate many different requests including weekday and weekend house sitting or over night stays. Safety first, during walks I prefer dogs to be on harnesses so as to limit the potential for injuries due to sudden jerks. I know first hand how some pups can get scared of oncoming traffic or excited by other wildlife, your pet’s health is my top concern. Walking should help their health not hurt it. I always allow pets to warm up to me when doing drop in visits and do my best to minimize stress during the visit. An owner’s absence can be confusing and stressful for the pet, it’s important they feel loved and safe. I will do everything I can to adhere to the boundaries you have in place with your pet such as jumping, treats, boundary areas in the home, ect. We can discuss these in detail prior to booking.

“Abeni is the kind of person you want taking care of your animals! Seeing her as both a pet owner and a caretaker, I can advocate that she has such a heart for taking quality and intentional care of animals- even those that aren’t her own. She is gentle spirited and I think pups really sense that. Something that makes her a great caregiver is her ability to not only shower your animals with love, but to provide honest services to the family.”

“Outstanding! Punctual, dependable, and good to my pup.”

About: I have 7+ years of experience with boarding, training, and loving dogs of all breeds. I completed both my Psychology Degree and Behavior Modification Certification at the University of North Alabama, which led me to pursue basic, intermediate, and advanced dog training. I love cats and dogs so much that I make myself available to board and/or train 7 days a week. I am available Sunday-Saturday even holidays!! I have a fenced in back yard that your fur baby can use for morning and afternoon playtime with my other dogs. If your dog enjoys their alone time, no worries! We can leash up and play in the front yard or go on a morning/afternoon walk.

“Nicole is incredible with dogs! She deeply loves and cares for any dog she meets and is able to find a connection with each and every one of them. Not to mention the dogs love her too! Both of my dogs are very protective and tend to bark at strangers, but soon after meeting her they were able to calm down and enjoy her company. She also is extremely responsible in her care for the animals. She diligently remembers to feed and take them out when specified/necessary and provides an abundance of attention and love to them. I highly recommend Nicole as a loving dog caregiver!”

“Cameron has such a calm and relaxed demeanor that I believe is really appealing to animals. They love him. He is reliable, attentive, and perceptive.”

“Lafonda is an absolute angel! We travel quite often and I never have to worry about my yorkie being taken care of. She loves him like he is her own and it shows! Not to mention, he adores her!! She is always quick to answer my text messages and always does what she says she will do. There’s no one I trust more with him than Lafonda. She even took him to the vet once when he had an eye issue arise while we were out of town and she kept me updated the entire time! She’s stayed with him so much that she feels like family at this point. If you are in need of a sitter, she is amazing and I would 100 percent recommend her to everyone!”
