Treating fur babies like my own

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Traci and I hope I have the pleasure of working with your fur baby! I have my own 5 year old German Shepherd named Piper who is my absolute pride and joy. I pride myself on learning about dog psychology/behavior and also training techniques for my own little lady. I love working with other dogs and taking care of them, so drop ins and dog walking work great with my schedule as I work from home! My husband and I just moved to the Mobile area from the beautiful Florida Keys due to his career with the military. I’m currently taking classes through The Michael Ellis School for Dog Trainers to become a well rounded dog trainer and eventually be able to do behavior modification and train service dogs. In April 2019 I traveled to Washington state to shadow Amy, the owner of Valor K9 Academy in Spokane to work on my training technique and learn from her personally. I can do drop in visits or walks ranging from 30 minutes to an hour. I can promise you, though, that your fur babies will be treated just like my own while in my care! I’d love to be your regular weekly sitter while you’re at work or even just taking your pup for a few walks while you’re away on a day trip! ** I do not take care of cats due to being extremely allergic. ** ** EMERGENCY/LAST MINUTE bookings for repeat clients ONLY. I require a meet and greet before I will start working with anyone. No exceptions. ** ** Due to a high volume of people contacting me about boarding and pet sitting out of my home, I unfortunately do not offer this service. Dog walking and drop in visits only. I apologzie for any inconvenience. **

Traci is wonderful! Prompt and friendly, she and our pug got along right away. We were able to meet beforehand so I could share our routine with Traci, and her notes and check ins brought my husband and I joy and an ease of mind. Traci is amazing!

Traci was wonderful to deal with. She came right away to meet the boys, and we were impressed. We are looking forward to using her services again.

Traci has been amazing! My 2 boys love her! It has made our work days so much easier knowing that when we walk out of the door the boys will be in good hands. Traci is great about communicating and sending pics of the boys! Our boys say 4 paws up, or I guess 8 paws up for Traci?

Traci, words can not express my gratitude for watching my two babies so my family could have a chance to experience John Pennekamp reef snorkeling. With out you one of would have been left behind. The compassionate care, experience you brought and the much need extra assurance.. (along with the beautiful pictures you took of of our babies) was WELL beyond what we would have imagined. You offered your services to us when we made the last minute arrangements and continued to give us your availability options without hesitation that were convenient to us. You gave us the priceless sense of peace. I'll never forget you and hope we have the good fortune to meet again. For all to know. She is a gem! Pick Traci you will be more than blessed

Information Traci S. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences. I like to know of any allergies (if known) to avoid. I also like to know if your fur baby is sensitive to other dogs or people.

A typical day

I love to bring treats and the dogs favorite toy along while on walks! I also like to try and incorporate easy tasks to get your pup thinking and using that brain, whether we are on a walk or I am doing a drop in.
