Dog Walkers in Southside, AL

“I have never met anyone quite like Kelly. She is not your usual pet lover/activist. She is soft spoken, kind, gentle, compassionate, and truly caring. She has been taking care of my boys for many years now. We don't schedule vacations unless we know she is going to be available to look after them. When my Bernese Mtn Dog became very sick a few years ago, she came and sat with me while I sat with him. When they determined there was nothing more that could be done for him, she went to the vets office with me. I was so emotional that I had to leave and she stayed with my Samson to the very end. Those are times she was "working" and was not paid but they speak so clearly of her character and her loving heart. I whole heartedly recommend Kelly ! She is the absolute best!”

“Shelby was a life saver and the best dog walker ever. I had to bring my dog to my parents house for an out of state trip for two weeks. My parents are +70 years old and can’t walk my husky dog. I met Shelby and she was the only person I needed to see. Prince loved her immediately so I knew he was in good hands. Shelby gave Prince daily walks for one hour. Took him on trips to dog parks and even gave him a bath on his last day since it was a rainy week. I highly recommend her for any service and if I’m ever back in town with Prince I’ll definitely see if she’s available.”

“Brooke is awesome! My dogs loved her immediately. She is very punctual and so good with Buddy. I would highly recommend her. We were so lucky to find Brooke.”

“I first solicited “Fluffy” for pet sitting our fur babies for a last minute trip we wanted to take. I was freaking out because I missed the cutoff time to take them to the kennel. “Fluffy” did not disappoint. My schnoodle, who doesn’t like anyone, took to Fluffy right away. Our fur children (1 cat and two dogs) were well taken care of and loved during our weekend away. She truly loves animals and is highly recommended.”

“Sara is great with animals! She often cares for our 3 cats by herself for weeks at a time, no complaints from me! She’s the kind of person to always care for animals when others may not. Constantly donating items/ money to shelters and care facilities. You know the person who always ends up finding the stray kittens or pregnant mother dog while out on a walk? That’s Sara and she always brings them home and makes sure they end up with loving homes. Idk how she does it! Hopefully she’ll be the one caring for my cats the rest of their lives while I’m away!”

“Lana was great! she house sit for us 2 times this year- the furry kids love her and she kept the house in order. No complaints from us. ! will have her again when we plan our next vacation”

About: Hi! My name is Haley. I love animals. I have lifelong experience with pets. I grew up always having a dog. I love taking dogs on walks and giving them the attention they need. I'm willing to give your pets as little or as much attention as they prefer. I have house sat with the inclusion of dog sitting multiple times.

About: 5+ years experience operating my own pet care service with over 25 regular weekly/monthly clients. I provide dog walking and drop in visits for both dogs and cats. While my pet care service started as supplemental side income, it has now grown into my primary source of income. As such, my time and availability is now prioritized for taking care of your pets. For drop in visits I will provide whatever routine your pet is most familiar with. I never force or rush the interaction beyond what your pet is comfortable with. I let them set the pace and allow my patience to incrementally navigate our progress.

“I've witnessed Aubrey care for our four dogs on a regular basis. She knew exactly what to do when our black lab got sprayed by a skunk and when our yellow lab had stomach issues. She's patient and firm in her training and takes the responsibility of providing for them seriously. She is trustworthy, responsible and intelligent. She is respectful and honest. I highly recommend inviting her into your home to care for your pets.”

“Kayla has watched my golden doodle for me MANY of times. He is an easy dog but Kayla went above and beyond each time. She did things such as using his enrichment toys, sending TONS of pictures, and cleaning his dog bowls because they got a bit too dirty. All things I did not ask her to do but were nice to have done! I recommend Kayla as a dog sitter to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.”

“I know Johnnie has been a dog owner for all of her life. She loves her dogs and treats them very well, seeing that they are properly fed, housed, exercised and otherwise cared for. She will do an excellent job caring for the pets of others because she genuinely cares.”

“Lilly is super responsible and so good with our little Mia. She gets excited when Lilly walks in! She keeps us posted on her behavior throughout our time away. Mia is always fed, happy, and well-loved while we are out. We love Lilly!”

“Asia worked with both my dogs for over 2 years. She was always on time, respectful, thorough, and sweet. She's also clearly in control on the walk, keeping the dog right at her side. A natural with them, my pups adored her too. She's also stayed in my home and I trust her implicitly. She's a great choice and won't disappoint!! We miss her already!!”
