Dog Walking Shelbyville

About: Hi, I’m Danielle. I provide dog walking and drop-in visits throughout Bedford County for families who need reliable, consistent care while they’re at work or away from home. Visit times may occasionally need a little flexibility—especially on busier days or when travel between appointments takes longer than expected. I always make sure every pet receives the full care and attention they deserve. Over the past several years, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand that every pet is different, and I do my best to follow your routines closely so your pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a structured walk, playtime in the yard, feeding, or just some extra attention during the day, I’m happy to help. I also provide drop-in visits for cats, making sure litter boxes are clean, meals are given on schedule, and they get interaction at their comfort level. I focus on creating a calm, dependable experience for both pets and their owners. You can expect clear communication, thoughtful care, and updates during each visit so you always know how things are going. I’m grateful to have built long-term relationships with many local pet families over the years, and I look forward to continuing to care for wonderful pets throughout Bedford County. If you’re looking for steady, trustworthy dog walking or drop-in care, I’d love to connect. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to make sure your pets are cared for, whether they need a midday walk, a potty break, playtime, or a meal while you're away. I am available 7 days a week for drop-in visits and dog walking and would love to continue helping pet owners in any way I can! I love spending time with dogs and making sure they get the mental and physical stimulation they need! Whether it’s a fun game of fetch, a relaxing walk, or a treat puzzle to challenge their minds, I always aim to keep pets happy and engaged. I now focus on dog walking and drop-in visits at my clients’ homes. I enjoy taking dogs on walks around their neighborhoods, helping them get exercise, explore new scents, and feel comfortable in their surroundings. If the weather is nice, I’m happy to take them on a stroll through a local park for a little extra adventure!

About: I’m excited to help look after your pets. I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and have fostered tiny kittens. I hate leaving my pets at a kennel or with strangers when I travel. I hope to help your pets feel safe and loved while you’re gone. Also, I want you to feel assured your pet is receiving the best care. I’m comfortable around all dogs and cats. I can help with puppies to seniors. I have adopted and trained many puppies and loved my 2 hairless cats! I’m very trustworthy and dependable. You can relax knowing that I always put your wishes and the pets well-being first. I am currently available most days for drop-ins. Also, if you live in my area I’m also available for last minute emergencies. I can’t do over night stays I will follow your instructions and wishes in a timely matter. I am patient and experienced with anxious pets. I’ll do my best to make you and your pet comfortable with my visits

“I am so thankful for Shannon! She gives my pup the quick exercise that she needs while I'm at work. She's very easy to communicate with and sends me great updates! My furbaby loves her walks with Shannon.”

About: I have five cats and a dog currently and am always looking to play or help take care of a furry friend. I have previously worked in a daycare as well which helped me get a lot of experience in caretaking. I am not a permanent employee anywhere and have a flexible schedule so i’m able to work my plans around the needs of any pet. All work is either online or gig based so I am always available! I have the energy to keep up with hyper dogs but i also love the lazy dogs/ cats who just want me to pet them and hang out around them. whether your pet needs a workout or a nap session, i can keep up with it!

“Cassy is fantastic. She provides great feedback and pictures. My fur baby was very happy to have Cassy walk her. I highly recommend Cassy and look forward to her watching my fur baby again. Thank you Cassy.”

“Jill was great with Oakley! We met for a meet and greet a few days prior and she was very flexible and responsive with setting that up. She took great care of Oakley while we were on a day trip and we will definitely remember her next time we stay with relatives in the area as we are based out of town. Our dog quickly warmed up to her and they had a great day of walks together! Thank you Jill!”

“Diana had been awesome to my new puppy! She has been working with him and taking him out for me since he was about 9 weeks old. She has awesome communication and always available and willing to help no matter if it’s early mornings or later nights. I’m so appreciative to have her around!”

“I can’t recommend Gabby enough as a dog walker! She’s absolutely fantastic with my pitbull, Mabel. From day one, it was clear that Gabby truly cares about dogs. Mabel is energetic and sometimes a little stubborn, but Gabby always knows how to keep her engaged and well-exercised. I love how attentive she is to Mabel’s needs—whether it’s adjusting to her mood or making sure she gets the perfect amount of playtime. Gabby is punctual, reliable, and incredibly professional. It’s so reassuring knowing that Mabel is in such great hands every time Gabby takes her for a walk. I truly appreciate how Gabby goes the extra mile, even providing little updates and photos of their adventures. If you’re looking for someone who’s kind, trustworthy, and great with dogs of all kinds, Gabby is the one!”

About: My name is Hannah, but I go by Mikki. I have had pets since I was 15 years old and they have ranged from cats, dogs, and the exotic! I have a serious love for all the different types of fur-babies and am a proud pet parent myself! I’m the purrfect fit if you love someone enthusiastic about animals and their care, someone who is strict with rules and restrictions, and someone who is flexible! I have worked in a pet boarding type facility in the past and carry much experience wrangling dogs of all sizes and in all group sizes, with all different types of personalities. I also have a dog and cat myself. My daily schedule involves me waking up and letting my dog out while preparing their breakfast. After they eat, we get some snuggles in until it’s time to go potty. Later on, it time for dinner and then a nightly walk 30 minutes to an hour after dinner has been served. That ends our adventure for the day! For Drop-Ins: I stop by for feedings and enrichment for between 30 minutes to an hour. I make sure they care squared away and everything is locked up before I leave. For Walks: It’s simple … we just go for walks. 30 minutes to an hour or whatever set path and time per appointment. For House-Sitting: I set a time for me to come over. I stay for the duration of the appointment set and bring my own necessities so that I don’t have to leave the premises. I stay within your home, where your babies are most comfortable, and provide them with company and a set schedule. Before I confirm a booking, I will ALWAYS set up a meet-and-greet. I need to be able to sit down with the fur-babies and parents so we can get a good view of the vibes and to see if I would be a good fit. These meet-and-greets are NOT OPTIONAL and refusal will result in a CANCELED BOOKING! Sitting should be a comfortable experience for pet, pet parent, and sitter. Checking the vibes and getting details is critical for success.

About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.
