Dog Walking Opelika

About: I’ve had animals around the house my entire life, and I’ve been trusted to petsit and housesit for friends and neighbors since I was a teenager. I have two cats of my own, but I regularly care for others’ pets as well. This summer I have most of the week free, and evenings T/W/Th by request! I love all animals, no matter the energy level! Whether they need to play ‘til they drop, or just want to curl up and sit beside you, I’m happy to accommodate.

“Linda was so great and easy to work with! You can tell she really loves animals immediately upon meeting her! She is very sweet and my animals liked her immediately, too (obviously a huge plus!!)! I will definitely be using her again to take care of my fur babies!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 8 years old. Specifically, cats and dogs. I have lots of experience with larger dogs like German Shepards and pit bulls as well as smaller dogs like Boston terriers. I am a graduate student at Auburn and I work from home a few days a week. I live near the university which is convenient. I love playing with dogs and cats and giving them the playtime and attention that they need. I grew up with very hyperactive animals so I would love to pet sit or walk your dog!

About: Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital, I developed a strong passion for animal care from an early age and gained hands-on experience working with a wide variety of species. I have personally cared for four dogs and a rabbit, giving me a deep understanding of daily pet care, responsibility, and animal behavior. In addition to personal experience, I worked as a Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital and shelter throughout my senior year of high school and during my freshman and sophomore years of college. In this role, I assisted with patient care, monitored animals, maintained clean and safe environments, and supported veterinarians and staff with daily operations. I also volunteer at a horse ranch during my free time, where I assist with animal care and ranch responsibilities. My background has allowed me to become comfortable working with animals of all sizes and temperaments while developing strong compassion, communication, and caregiving skills. currently work from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and dedicate plenty of time to animal care and attention throughout the day. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine, and I enjoy maintaining a structured schedule to ensure animals receive consistent care, exercise, and companionship. I have four personal dogs and regularly spend time finding new walking trails, parks, and outdoor areas to take my pack on adventures and exercise outings. Staying active with my dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for pets, whether in my own home or in a client’s home. Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital and working as a Veterinary Assistant taught me how to properly handle animals, recognize behavioral changes, and maintain clean, safe, and stress-free environments for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I am very organized and dependable, so I like to keep pets on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, playtime, and rest. I also make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and am able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. I have four dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, safety, and treating every animal like family. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and exploring new trails and outdoor spaces to keep them active and engaged. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, carefully follow all instructions, and prioritize communication by providing updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and informed while they are away.

About: I’ve had experience with dogs since I was 8 starting with my first ever dog Cupcake. Since then I have taken care of dogs of all sizes for neighbors and friends. I am very good with senior dogs, and energetic puppies alike! I love to learn how each dog’s personality shines. I am currently taking online college courses for the summer. My classes being online gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule, so I am willing to work out times with people on an individual basis! I take a lot of care to be respectful of people’s homes when caring for their animals. I fulfill each task the pet needs with care and give each pet the time and attention they need.

About: I’ve grown up with two dogs and have lived with both a small and a big dog. I’ve dog sat for my neighbors growing up. I’ve watch all kinds of dogs and have no problems with watching more than one dog in a household. I also have experience with both young and old dogs, so I know the different attentions each type needs. I am currently taking a summer class at Auburn University and I would love to spend my time watching a dog when not in my class. Over the summer I will be in Auburn taking one class at 8am on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Outside of that I will be free to watch dogs. I’ve had two dogs growing up, one was always super active and loved walks the other loved belly rubs and staying in doors. I’m good with either type of dog. I’ve also dog sat for many different breeds of dogs so I’m good with all types.

“Ryan is wonderful and patient with my young and energetic dog Finn! Finn gets so excited when Ryan arrives for their early evening 30 minute walk adventure. Ryan is very dependable and communicates, if needed, in a timely manner. After 3 weeks of walks, I fully trust Ryan with my dog. Finn comes home very happy with his walk!”

About: We recently had to say goodbye to our elderly dog and while we aren't ready to find a new four-legged friend we want to take care of yours! We have had multiple dogs throughout our lives and have taken care of lots of dogs of all kinds for our friends. My wife and I own Heritage House, a boutique bed & breakfast and event venue in Opelika. We live on site in a separate, private residence. This is our full time job so at least one of us would pretty much always be around while hosting your dog. Our living space is on a second floor so your dog must be able to navigate stairs OR be a small enough dog that we can easily carry them up and down safely. We have a small fenced section of the property for letting your dog out on short breaks and would also be taking lots of walks, as needed, around our very safe neighborhood. We are flexible based on your dog's needs and could do crating if necessary, but we prefer to let well behaved, house trained pups run free in the house.

About: Over the past 15 years, I have cared for both small and large dogs (baby, young, adult and elderly) and have been with Rover since 2018. I have done overnight stays with 1-2 dogs at a time, as well as housing a golden retriever in my home and caring for him for two weeks while his owners were on vacation. I am very active and would enjoy walking or running with your dog, tossing a ball or playing fetch. I am also outgoing and love animals (especially dogs!!!) and want your dog to enjoy his/her time with me as much as I enjoy my time with them! I am also happy to do drop in visits, and can document the process on video so you know your dog and home are safe! I’m currently working full time during the week, but come home for an hour at lunch. Weekends are free and I spend lots of time playing with my (and your) pup! There is a fenced in dog park at my apartment complex and also a great walking trail. My dog loves all other pups and they will be sure to have the best time together!

“Thank you, Laura for taking such great care of Coco our 13 year old Shi Tzu and for keeping us in touch by sending pictures of her during your stay. Knowing she was well cared for, made our Anniversary trip all that more special. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!”

I will accommodate your pet into my schedule to make them as comfortable as possible. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs that are lovely with other animals. I also have cats in my home as well. Your pet will be treated as if they were my own with the utmost care and comfort.

About: I've loved dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having company throughout the day, I'm committed to making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions and provide the care that works best for them. I'll treat your dog with the same attention, patience, and kindness that I would give my own pet, and I'll keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while they're in my care! I am currently in grad school at Auburn University, working towards my CPA. I am available on weekdays from 10 am-12:30 pm and again after 3 pm. My weekends are very flexible and I am free at any time!
