Shoals Sits & Strolls

Pet care experience

Allow me to introduce myself! Welcome to Shoals Sits & Strolls— I’m so glad to have you here! 🦴🐕‍🦺🐾 My name is Taylor and I specialize at intentionally caring for fur babies and households while owners are away. I am also taking bookings for daily dog walking! *** I have a personal business page on Facebook; find me @ Strolls Sits & Strolls & let’s connect on there!! Almost 40 five star reviews : ) I take pride in the care I give each animal and treat them as if I’m the person who gave them their ’furever’ home. 🐾 If they sleep in the bed with you while you’re home, they’re sleeping in the bed with me too! 💖 I send photo updates daily while owners are away, play + interact with them, and provide all the ear scratches necessary until their people arrive back home. I’m very well versed in and understand the importance of administering any meds your pet may need to have as I have cared for many sweet fluffies who rely on daily meds to function at their best. 💊 I also make sure trash cans are at the road for trash day, pickup mail deliveries and bring them inside, and can even give your babe a bath for an additional up-charge if you want to come home to them squeaky clean! 🧼🫧 I’ve been doing this for several years now and I’m so excited to connect with more amazing families and furry friends! 🐕🐈‍⬛🐩🦮 Don’t hesitate to reach out and chat so we can get you on my books! I love what I do because I know the security and comfort of having someone love on your baby makes being away much less stressful on a pet owner. 🖤 “While you’re far away, let your fur baby staycation with Tay!” 🧡🌅🏝

I highly recommend Taylor to everyone who is looking for someone to care, and I mean really care for their pets. We have a pack 3 larger breed dogs who have a variety of special care needs, from diet, medications, behavior and exercise. Our 2 males do not get along with each other,so special care has to be taken keeping them separated. Taylor excels in making sure everything goes smoothly while we are away. We get daily progress reports and pics of our pups getting love and attention from her. She keeps written logs on what she does for which dog and when. I know our dogs and chickens are safe and loved in Taylor's care.

Taylor is a caring person. She is great with animals of all kind. She always cares for my pup when I need her to, even on short notices. I’ve spent money all over on pet care, and I’ve found that I get the most for my money when I used Taylor. If you’re going to the beach or have a get away planned, call Taylor to care for your pet. She is even available to housesit with the dog which is almost unheard of. That allows the dog to be comfortable in a familiar environment.

For any and all pet sitting needs, Taylor is your girl! She has house/pet sat for us for several long trips over the last few years and I’ve come home to happy pets each time. She takes the time to give them the attention and walks they need. She also keeps my house as clean as I left it each time. Don’t hesitate if you need someone, give her a call! -Sonya Vaden

I highly recommend Taylor to take care of anyone’s fur/pet babies. She has always been amazing with my two golden retrievers. They get so excited when she’s over to watch them. Our older golden has seizures and requires medication and very certain times of the day, she made sure that was completed on time. I love that she leaves a recap of the boys time with her while we are away. If you are in need of someone to hang with your pets, I again highly recommend Taylor.

Safety, trust & environment

I primarily provide my pet care services within the homes of the pet so they can remain as calm, and anxiety free as possible, within their own environments! I am not opposed to watching pets within the walls of my own home, however, most pet owners would rather I come to their place so I have actually just never had the opportunity to watch pets at my place. No one has ever asked!!! I do live near downtown though and find that many of my neighbors fur babes love to stroll with me around the historic district. Overall though, it seems most pets enjoy staying in their own routine rather than being taken to a house they are unfamiliar with, as all of my clientele hire me for in-home pet care. I am sure to provide a watchful eye over your pet to insure its safety and well-being, and always report to owners immediately if I notice their fur babe is not acting like themselves. I require all clients leave me with emergency contact numbers as well as veterinarian contacts too in the case there is a medical emergency.

Information Taylor C. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if your dog has any past or current injuries that I should be aware of before walks or play time. Are they dog friendly or highly reactive to other animals? Do they get anxious when the owner is away? Do they have certain triggers that may make them act protective / show aggression? What comforts them the most when the owners are away? I like to play music or show nature videos on the TV of ducks/squirrels/birds playing for the pups when they’re alone… will your pup enjoy this or are they more likely to bark at the TV in turn causing more anxiety? Do they have any allergies to certain protein or food ingredients/require special treats?

A typical day

My favorite places to walk if your personal neighborhood isn’t safe is downtown, Deibert Park, and McFarland. I love playing ball in the yard, throwing frisky, play tug of war, and zapping your pup’s energy out.

Availability

Providing pet care services, whether it be in house pet sitting, daily checkins on pets, or dropping by for playtime or a walk while owners have longer work days is my full time job. My schedule is full of fluffy tails, all the time!!! I have dozens and dozens of clients located here in the Shoals area, but I also travel out of town for clients, too, in Russelville, Huntsville, Birmingham, Guntersville, you name it! As long as a client books far enough in advance I will travel outside the area for pet sleepovers.
