Dog Walking in Prichard

About: My household has always had a furry friend in it since the day I was born from small ankle biters like Chihuahuas to hefty cuties like my current Bully Pit that I can safely wrestle in some horseplay. Puppies, seniors, we don't discriminate 'round here! I don't mind getting my hands dirty and have small experience in clicker training younger pups along with an energy to match whichever personality I'm given. A boundless Collie? We can play all day! A sleepy old Bassett? We can chill with some TV. I'm not above being put to work either. Give me a litter box to clean. Give me medicine and I'll make sure it's getting swallowed. Toss a cat my way as well why doncha? I worked as a cat caretaker during my fall and spring semesters in Auburn University, as well as own a lovely kitten named Autumn, so having a feline to shake things up would be a nice treat! Trust me, my hands have a good pain tolerance. Beyond that, I know it costs major bucks to look after your pets. Or pay someone ELSE too. Sometimes a week stay for a pet can run up to $500! That's why you come to me. I offer affordable rates because I'm more concerned with the passion than the money. I have multiple pets of my own and I know the chip they can put in my wallet just from vet visits! So I won't let it get in your way! 🤠 I've graduated happily from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Sciences and am settling into a new job. This means that while I'm happy to take on new clients, my schedule is sporadic as it's determined on a weekly basis. It also means I will be gone for many hours at a time. My current work schedule and thus how long I'd be busy for Aug 11-17 is: Mon: Free Tue: 4-9:30 pm Wed: 5-9:30 pm Thurs: 5-9:30 pm Fri: 3-9:30 pm Sat: 4-9:30 pm Sun: Free Safety is a non-negotiable when it comes to our furry friends. Just like I do with my own pals, I stay by them at all times when outside and encourage their attention with toys or loving scritches when they're not doing their business. If push comes to shove, I am capable of safely wrestling an overzealous dog into calming down or tightening the 'ol leash if need be. With cats, responsibly scruffing rarely fails. Inside, unless stated otherwise where they're allowed to park themselves, I stay with my little friends on the floor and can crate them if specified to do so when it's bedtime. If they're free roamers, I let them tag along where I go! Except the kitchen. I also welcome animals who require daily or periodic medication. Bear in mind I charge $10 per day of administering medication, and it would cover all required meds for that day. Rest assured your friend will be taken care of!

“Dalton was extremely patient with Levi, who is a bit anxious with new people. He spent time with him and made sure he was comfortable. He is amazing”

“I gave Deanna a key to my place to walk my dog. She walked her for an hour, dropped her off and left the key. My dog seems like really life her. She was on time and everything was so smooth.”

About: I have been taking care of animals for more than 20 years! From 150 racing pidgeons to racetrack horses, special needs dogs and even monkeys I have experienced just about everything! I am very flexible and can do mornings, lunch and night. I am self employed as a groomer so can work around pretty much any schedule. I am insured and take caring for pets in peoples home very seriously, I will have you fill out and sign a pet sitting contract that covers us both and always keep keys in a hidden purse using a color code with no addresses attached.

About: I have taken care of pets my entire life and just love them, doggies especially! I have been trusted with keeping many of my friends pets over the years and taking care of homes. I am in and out of the house during the day working a couple of different jobs all of which allow me to swing by during the day or keep me here during the day. I am always home at night. I have a fully fenced unescapable yard. I have a doggy door so the pets can go in and out as they please. I have a small shitzu who is old and nearly blind and deaf. She loves other animals and keeps to herself mostly.

“Regan has been FANTASTIC! I was nervous about having a dog walker come to our home and Regan has been fabulous with Cody! She has gone above and beyond to clean up some nervous messes he made and she communicates often which works great for me. She asked my communication preferences up front and has followed through, making me feel settled and comfortable knowing Cody is being well cared for.”

“Ann keeps being wonderful to use! 2 weeks in a row that I have needed her daily and she always shows up and even an extra visit at the last minute.”

About: I have worked in the pet industry for almost 8 years and have enjoyed every single minute of it! At my current position, I have been working directly with dogs for 5+ years and plan to work with dogs for years to come! I am currently working part time(mon-fri after 4pm), so that leaves plenty of time during your work day for me to visit with your pet! For morning/afternoon visits, I can drop in any time before 4pm(latest drop in 3:15p), so I would be perfect for those lunch time pick-me-ups that pets love! If you work night shift and need a late night drop in, I'm your choice! I am available all week after 8pm(earliest pm drop in would be 8:15pm) for walks, potty breaks, or late night snacks! I am confident in my leash walking skills and care abilities. I am also well versed in containment and different types of behavior styles in dogs. Whether they are grumpy or happy-go-lucky, I am confident in my ability to provide excellent care.

About: Throughout my whole life, I have been surrounded by dogs and cats in the household. I’ve also had reptiles, so I have a well-rounded experience with taking care of many animals. I’ve taken many babysitting jobs from people I know, and am very good at following the specific instructions given. I have also assisted my dog while she had given birth. I’m a full time student, my average day schedule start around 9 and ends around 1. In the afternoons, nights, and weekends i am free. I live in a gated community, and have a house with 4 other animal loving roommates. My floors are wood, so any possible messes are easy to clean. They are free to roam around the house and in my room, but if given specific instructions I can also keep them in my room while taking care of them. I have room for a crate as well.

About: Pets have always been apart of my life! I grew up with a variety of breeds of dogs. I have even had a few pet birds! As a teenager & young adult, pet sitting has been a frequent side gig of mine that has brought me joy and a way to help support my growing family. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule can be very flexible. I am home the majority of the time and able to give your pet lots of attention and love. I would love to make your needs work around my schedule! I have a large backyard that is fully fenced. For your pets safety, they will always be supervised and not left alone outside or be exposed to extreme heat or cold. I take daily walks with my children and your pet, always leashed for safety.  I keep a large crate with comfortable bedding for sleeping. I do have 2 toddlers who adore animals & the entertainment that often comes along with them. Because of this, I can only accept pets that are known to be good with children.

“Jordan was a pleasure to work with! She sent us updates on the walks and when i get back home my fur baby was his same happy self. Thank you for caring for him! Will definitely use again in the future!”

About: Thanks for checking out my profile! I've had a variety animals all my life, and my parents instilled in me that animals deserve the best care possible. Animals are too good for us, and I always want to make them feel loved and well taken care of whenever I can- gimme all the cuddles! I have almost 9 years of paid experience as a puppy-sitter, and I absolutely LOVE it! It's a big thing to let a stranger into you home to watch your family members, so I am more than happy to do a FaceTime/Zoom call or we can meet up at a coffee shop to get to know each other! When I watch your babies, I request a written list of all items/food times needed for each animal so that I can make sure everything is taken care of and all babies are happy and healthy while you're away! I'm working part-time right now, so I have lots of time to be with your babies and to make sure they have all the love they need. The longest I ever plan to be gone from your babies is 6 hours. As per my request, I will follow the written list to a T. I want to make sure your babies are taken care of while you're away, and realize that that can be a scary thing for animals. I always strive to make sure that your animals are comfortable and that they feel loved!

About: Have always loved and taken care of animals since I was young. Good experience with medium to small dogs and all cats. Just reach out. Currently in school and working part time. I am available. Monday-Wednesday from 1:00PM-6:00PM. Saturday from 5:00PM-7:00PM. I am not available Thursday, Friday, or Saturday unless I know in advance.

About: I have been a pet lover since birth. Very comfortable with almost all animals and treat them like a family member always. I have had a total of 5 dogs my entire life and have never been without one. I’ve had birds, fish, bunnies and cats as well. Love pets from tiny to giant. No breed frightens me. I like to rub, pet, brush, tug and throw toys. Slobber does not bother me and love dog kisses. I am very aware of the responsibility involved with care giving. It is like taking care of a baby. They need your undivided attention and time. I am organized. I pay attention to detail. However always flexible as well. This is something that brings me great joy in life I am semi retired and have an open schedule. My days and nights are pretty flexible. I have help with my own pet, so it allows me to be able to do overnight visits as well. My pets have always been my family members. They sleep in the bed with me, sit on the couch with me and watch TV. I like to take them for a long walks and also fun car rides.

“Brenna was so amazing with Kenney and Sean, they had such a great experience with her and I’m so happy we were able to find her with such short notice! Thank you so much Brenna we are so grateful!!”

About: Looking for someone who treats your pup like family? I’m a dependable, experienced dog sitter who offers more than just the basics. With a genuine love for animals and a calm, patient approach, I ensure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles on the couch, I tailor care to meet your dog’s unique personality and needs. I'm attentive to routines, experienced with all sizes and temperaments, and comfortable giving medication if needed. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority—and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're gone. I am free at all times! I take college classes online and dont have a set schedule that I need to keep in mind, the only activity I do daily is exercising and caring for my own pup! Whenever I take dogs on walks I always bring a portable water bowl and treats, sometimes I'll teach them tricks for fun! For dog sitting I love taking them on walks, throwing them the ball and caring for them by grooming them! It seems to help the owners when their dogs already have a bath and are clean so they dont have to worry about it!

About: Hi, my name is Claudia and I am a stay at home mom. I have had doggy fever for a while now lol so by letting me walk and look after your lovely beauties you will be aiding me in many things :D first, ridding me of my doggy fever. Second, helping me exercise walking dogs would be a great motivation. Last, helping me earn a little income while doing something I love and spending time outside the house with my kids. I don't have any professional experience but I often look after my friend's pets while they are out of town. That includes of course all the normal things walking, playing, feeding, loving on them, and sometimes over night stays. My ideal avalibilty would be more like a 8:30am-2pm Monday thru Friday if needed. However If you need me and I am available outside of those times I would not mind. Hopefully this was enough info on me for you to consider me to help you look after your fur babies :D. I would like to become your trusted go to person to care for your fur babies while you are away from them. They will be loved and loved on as much as they need it. We would play, take walks, feed them, take more walks. I know all pets are not the same and need their own kind of special attention so I would hope to be able to attend to whatever they may need while in my care.
