Dog Walkers in Maxeys, GA

About: Experienced pet care professional with countless years of experience caring for pets of all types, ages, and temperaments. Particularly experienced with nervous/anxious pets and their special needs. I currently have completely open availability for all day and overnight care of your pets and your home. I am willing to stay in your home for your pets’ comfort or to visit late at night and early in the morning. I am unable to care for pets in my home because of my own dog’s anxiety. Because of my experience with him, I am well prepared to care for pets that have anxiety, aggression, and nervousness. I am prepared to provide all of the attention or distant care that they require.

About: I have grown up with pets all my life, starting at the age of 7. My family currently has three dogs (one small and two medium) that I care for regularly. I am able to walk the three on a lease comfortably and have played a large role in training them. Although I prefer dogs, I grew up with a cat that I loved and cared for. I am able to provide compassion and care to a variety of pet personalities. With years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I understand how important it is to find a sitter/ walker you can trust. Whether your pet needs playtime, a dependable routine or just company, I’m here to provide loving and reliable care. I just received my Doctorate of Physical Therapy in May and am currently studying for the licensure exam that will be at the end of July. My availability is open as I have the freedom to adjust my study schedule as needed. I care for pets in their home by meeting them where they are at; literally and personality wise. With three dogs of my own at home, I am unable to watch your pet outside of their home. In caring for your pet in their environment it helps reduce stress and attempt to maintain any form of routine they have. I am considerate of multiple personalities and consciously make an effort to accommodate the pets needs. With dogs I have watched in the past, I attempt to give them familiarity with their routine, within mine and their comfort. I walk familiar roads/paths, feed them on their schedule (if possible) and attain to any of their needs. I will use any devices/ equipment you typically use and will prioritize safety outside the home (using leases, collars, etc.).

“Wow, just Amazing! Olivia was attentive and followed directions to a T. She was extremely diligent and gave my sweet boy extra lovings. He really enjoyed her company and we are so happy to know that we will MOST DEFINITELY be using Olivia again very soon! If your hesitant about a dog sitter, OLIVIA IS YOUR GIRL!!!”

About: With five years of experience, I specialize in personalized care for a wide range of animals, including reptiles and livestock. I am skilled in working with animals of all ages, administering medications, and providing extra care for those with special needs. I am currently a part-time college student with a flexible schedule. Because of this, I am free throughout the week, only needing to leave your pet to attend classes. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize making them feel safe and comfortable in my presence. I maintain their routines, provide attentive care, and create a calm environment to ensure they feel secure while their owner is away.

“Annaliese is great! She is punctual and able to take our 2 dogs on long walks in a short amount of time.”

About: I grew up with dogs and have loved having them in my life ever since. When my senior dog, that I raised from a pup, passed a a few years ago, I wanted more dogs in my life again! I know exactly what it's like having to leave a beloved friend in someone else's care. I have a safe, comfortable home with a fenced yard for your dog to feel at home in while you're away. I now have a dog of my own, she is a submissive, dog-friendly 3 year old who loves other dogs! If you have a friendly, non-aggressive dog I’d love for them to meet! I feel like I have an intuitive sense about dogs and know what they're trying to communicate when they show me what they need. I have experience with playful puppies and seniors with special needs and all ages in-between. I'm a calm, patient, fun leader. Your dog will be treated as part of the family and can sleep in bed if they so choose (let me know if this is not ok with you). I will stick with their usual routine as much as possible so they are comfortable and happy. I will take up to 2 dogs from the same family. One client at a time. I'm a graphic designer working from home so am available for doggy snuggles all day and for playing in my big yard and walks outside. I have a big yard with about a half acre fully fenced for dogs to run, play and explore. I am with them all the time outside and don’t leave them outside unsupervised.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was ten years old for neighbors and family. I have a bachelors in animal science from UGA and currently work in a local animal clinic for cats and dogs. This clinic offers regular and medical boarding and I am comfortable with animals in all stages of life as well as those that might require a little extra time and attention. I am CPR certified and have training to administer medications and fluids and monitor critically ill patients. I work Mondays-Thursday’s 7:30-6 and can be flexible with a lunch hour to provide for all types of needs. I am open all weekends and holidays. I have one sweet medium sized fur baby who is a shepherd mix, she is friendly with all sizes and breeds. I typically care for pets in a clients home as I find this can minimize stress related clinical signs from manifesting. I love to be active and can incorporate that into your high energy pets needs or can snuggle with your low energy pet and read a book. I monitor my dogs food and water intake closely and actively observe them when outside, I treat all my pet sitting babies the same as I would my own girl.

“Alexia is wonderful! As my dog can be skittish, she met Riley first. She asked lots of questions about taking care of my dog, questions I hadn’t even thought of. Alexia was patient, attentive and loving. I would certainly have Alexia take care of my dog again.”

About: Hi there! We’re Justin and Esther—animal lovers with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Justin is an author who’s had pets his whole life, starting with a sweet cat named China, who had a litter of kittens he raised until their passing. Today, we care for Lunae Lux, our energetic Siberian Husky, and Fayth, Justin’s affectionate cat. For Esther, being surrounded by animals was always a dream—and marrying Justin made it a reality. It’s allowed her to bond deeply with both Lunae and Fayth, fulfilling her lifelong wish to share her days with furry companions. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or training, we’re passionate about giving every pet the care and love they deserve. Animals are the first and most important priority of the day, afternoon and night. They are like children in that aspect, or fur children as people say. My cat and dog get along very well. I have trained my Siberian Husky to be more understanding and caring to smaller animals such as cats.

About: I’m currently 21 years old, and I’ve had a shih tzu since I was 10! My dog has some little quirks (like needing some extra help and encouragement to go through doors in the house and only eating her food out of a very specific bowl), so if your dog has any quirks too, I’m happy to accommodate anything they need! I’ve only ever had a small dog myself, but I’ve volunteered at a shelter and walked dogs of all sizes (yorkie to husky). I’m a college student at Purdue, but this summer I’m at home taking some online classes, babysitting, etc., so I have some extra time to help care for your dog anytime! My dog is like a member of my family, so I understand the importance of a safe and caring environment. When someone is taking care of my dog, I appreciate regular updates, so I would be happy to do that for you as well while caring for your dog!

“Awesome girl and Lauren has helped me out with watching my dog several times !”

About: My mom and I started transporting pets about 6 years ago to different states and countries. Due to being in school, I cannot travel a lot and chose to pet sit instead. I have been responsible for walking, feeding, and bathing dogs. I even have experience with cats and other animals like bunnies. Here is my link for $20 off for first time Rover users :) https://www.rover.com/sit/annikl68174 I am currently free for the summer. I will be going back to college in mid August. I hope to also pet sit when I start classes. I am willing to stay overnight at any clients home and accommodate to the animals in your home. I’m more than willing to do drop ins or stays! :)

About: I am an absolute dog lover and Rover lover! After I graduated from UGA in 2018, the first thing I did was purchase my own puppy, and she has been worth every sacrifice. Rover has helped me out so much while I have been moving between houses, and would be honored to give back by being a sitter. I am married and work full time, but am flexible as to whether I am working at home or in the office, and my husband is available to switch off with me as needed. My dog is very gentle, and loves play when with a good buddy. I am also a runner, so if your dog is high-energy, I will gladly take it for a good run (Yes- even if they want to yank my arm off)! I am diligent about taking puppies out to use the restroom. I understand (from experience) what it takes to house-train a puppy, and how important consistency is. I have a very flexible job, and already spend a lot of time with my own dog. Adding another in the mix would just be more fun for Mal Pal and I! Currently, I do three walks: morning, afternoon, and evening. I try not to leave dogs for longer than and hour if I need to leave the home while pet-sitting. When I am gone, pups stay in their crates.

About: I currently have a cat and a dog of my own, but I have always had at least one pet ever since I was a kid. I love working with dogs to train them, as well as spending lots of time cuddling and playing. I am comfortable grooming dogs. I love pets of all ages, but I have a soft spot for senior pets. I currently work as a caregiver all day Mondays and Tuesdays. I also draw and work on art a lot in my free time. I participate in various art markets and exhibitions throughout the year, but have a lot of free time aside from those days. I don't have a fenced in yard and I have a dog and a cat so I typically don't offer to host other pets at my home, but I am happy to spend some time with your pets in their own home where they should feel the most comfortable. I can take dogs on long or short walks, take them to a dog park, or just spend time with them at your house. I can bathe, brush, play, and cuddle your dogs. I am not a certified trainer, but I can work on simple commands and behavior modification. It's up to you how you prefer I help take care of your pet!

About: I have worked with a number of different sizes and ages of dogs. I also love to play with them and take them of walks so they get the exercise they need! I am currently a student that has class a couple days a week and not during the whole day. So I will be available majority of the day to either stop by and let a dog out during the day or evening. Also, I am available to watch overnight and have a lot of experience doing so! I am not offering in home care because I live in an apartment and I don’t think it would be the best fit for most dogs!

About: My experience consists of watching family and friends dogs and occasionally cats. I had a small yorkie with hip dysplasia and cushings that required meds frequently and I had a black lab mix that has also passed away, who was blind in one eye and deaf. I offer companionship and exercise for your pets when you're away. I can help with training, taking them for long walks, going to the restroom, administering medications, or just being an awesome petter for your puppy (because all dogs are puppies, no matter how old). I usually work the weekends from 8-4pm, but am usually up very early and can walk your dog as early as 5am if needed. During the week I can stop by and check or walk your pet in the morning or afternoon. Wed-Sun I can watch/walk them at night as well. When I walk my dogs, I prefer them to be in a harness for their comfort and safety. I make sure to watch the dogs closely, so if I see any signs of stress, I will promptly remove them from the situation. During the summer months especially, I will make sure to walk them early in the morning or in well shaded areas to make sure their paws are well protected from the hot pavement. I carry a dog water bottle with me on my walks, so they always have access to clean water if needed. When dog sitting, I take them out constantly, offer lots of playtime and stimulation while there, and always make sure the area is clean.

About: Hi y’all- I am a second year veterinary student at the University of Georgia next. I have worked as a vet tech for 8 years now and have a lot of experience caring for senior and special needs dogs! So no matter your pups needs, they will be safe with me:) I have a mutt pup, Boomer, who is 6 years old and is the sweetest thing ever and joins me on my bookings. He is great with other animals and enjoys playing with other dogs and cats - never had a problem with either. He is great at reading social situations so if your dog wants to play, he’ll play, if they don’t want to play, he is just as happy to go lay down and chill. I love taking my dog on walks and letting him play in my fence yard and would love do the same with yours. In my home there are 2 other very friendly fixed dogs that get along with all dogs they meet who are owned by my roommates. They typically are kept in their rooms and are not in the others parts of the house except in the fenced yard. I also am happy to take care of farm animal! Chickens, ducks, goats, horses, cows, you name it - I’ll care for it! I also have a green thumb and don’t mind tending to you garden and plants while I’m gone! As a full time student I am in class from 8-3 on weekdays. However, I do have an hour for lunch in which I can let out your pup. I will take care of your pets exactly how you do! My hope is that I can recreate the environment you provide for you pet while you are gone to create as little stress as possible for them! I have great communication skills and answer rather quickly and will be willing to take last minute bookings! Thank you for considering me and cannot wait to sit your dog!

About: Big fenced in yard for the dogs that love to run but I have couch potato's or furfu dogs too. If the dogs want they can be out 6 to 8 times a day and I have a nice area to walk if they need to stay on the leash. We love all the animals! I'm on time and keep a good schedule so you won't have to wait around for drop off and pick up. I'll also send you lots of pictures. I have a German Shorthaired Pointer and she is everybody's best friend. If your dog has any special care needs please share them in your booking. Bring with you: Bed, food, toy and crate ( not required but helps) The Dog House! Thank you, Rover says I need one more word. Keith I'm working PT so lot's of time to play with the dogs. I've had animals all my life and love them. We can watch a horse and your goats. Please bring all your pet's favorite play toys and their bed, food, treats and what ever else they love to make my house feel like their home.

About: I've been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life, and I currently have a wonderful dog of my own who is almost a year old! My experience extends beyond personal care to professional settings, where I've provided attentive pet sitting and grooming services. I'm highly flexible and happy to accommodate your pet's unique needs, ensuring they feel loved and cared for. Animals bring me so much joy, and I treat each one as if they were my own! I am currently a student at ABAC, taking classes throughout the week. However, my schedule is still flexible, especially on the weekends. Just let me know what you need ahead of time. When caring for pets, my top priority is their comfort, safety, and happiness.I maintain a routine tailored to each pet’s needs, including feeding schedules, playtime, walks, and any special care requirements like medication or grooming. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow the pet's established routine to minimize stress. I ensure their home stays tidy and that their pet feels secure while receiving plenty of love and attention. Whether it’s cuddles, play sessions, or sticking to training guidelines, I treat each pet as if they were my own.
