Dog Walkers in Sylvan Springs, AL

About: As a child, growing up I was always bringing home stray animals to care for. I've been rescuing & caring for animals for over 20 years now. I have rescued & cared for a variety of different animals. I have expertise in caring for senior animals, those with illnesses, have imapirments,are handicapped, have disabilities or those that may have special needs. I'm everyone's go to for pet questions/concerns, pet sitting & pet rescue. I am an animal advocate & longtime member of PETA, ASPCA, Alley Cats Allies, National Wildlife Federation & Humane Society of the United States. I support local recues such as Forgotten Tails Rescue, Kitty Kat Haven & Two by Two Animal Rescue. I am currently & have been a stay at home mother to two special needs children (boys-ages 8 & 10) for the past 10 years. My availability it pretty well open during the weekdays to be able to assist for you & your pet's needs. I have an open back yard (1 acre) for your doggo to run & play. Indoors we have a large sectional that everyone likes to pile up on & snuggle. I also have puppy pads to use indoor & can also crate your pupper if you prefer, but I usually prefer not to confine the fur babies.

About: I've taken care of animals my entire life growing up on a farm twice now, I worked at a vet as well and was personal all day/over night pet sitter for over a year, I've rescued several animals recently and taken them to get life saving medical care and gotten them properly adopted, I come from a very animal loving family and hope to open my own boarding/ rescue and adoption clinic one day along with a pet cafe I'm usually always available, if I'm not available it's once in a very rare occasion, I have a very flexible schedule accommodating for any customer scheduling needs or last minute bookings Im recently moved to a medium house with a fenced good size backyard, with a kitty pool if needed perfect for outside play time grooming or just chilling out, there are no animals inside my home right now besides 2 ducks and chickens that will be kept completely separate from other animals, but i will be moving my cat in with me soon, she works amazing with smaller dogs and did with my german shepherd but im unsure about larger dogs other then that so if your uncomfortable with them around cats the inside of the yard outside is very sizeable and can be shaded i also have dedicated the master bedroom to pet boarding so its empty and great for indoor playtime. As for going to the clients house I'm very good with timed medicated or specifically dieted animals, and animals of all kinds, just make me little list of things there allowed to do and not allowed to do I don't accidentally reward bad behavior or tell them no to going on the furniture or something that there usually allowed to do, I don't mind staying in a clients house over night but I will get my husband or my sister to stay with me for my own safety and depending on the booking there can be extra fees for it, I don't mind cameras being all over just none in the bathroom ofc and none where I'll be sleeping over night ofc, I'm good at taking animals out on walks to and pet grooming

About: I have worked with various breeds from a Newfoundland to a Pomeranian. My family owns two dogs that have had two litters of puppies so I have experience with dogs from new born to seniors. I also have a two furbabies of my own. I’m highly motivated and energetic, I don’t mind taking high energy dogs for long walks/ runs or just snuggling up and comforting dogs with separation anxiety. I don’t mind taking your dog on field trips, weather it’s to the lake or the dog park or just playing inside on rainy days! I love all breeds of dogs even ones considered “bully breeds” those are the sweetest in my opinion. For dog boarding if you have your dogs trained a certain way (staying off furniture) I can certainly enforce that while they are at my house. I can also work with any other needs like that if it is needed. Such as if your dogs do not get along with other dogs I can always put mine up in their room. The dogs will always meet in a neutral area before brought in the house to make sure they get along! I am currently attending school online so my schedule is open and very flexible! Whether your dog just needs a walk midday, someone to feed them while you’re at work, or someone to come stay with them/ to come stay with me and my pup because they aren’t good alone at home! I am currently in an house it does not have a fenced in backyard but i do have a big backyard and tie outs. I also have 2 furbabies to keep your pup comapany! If your dog is reactive i will make sure to keep a close eye on our surroundings while on walks!

“Meredith helped me have peace of mind today by agreeing to stay with my sick pup while I had to go to work. She kept me up to date with how she was and even went out of her way to pick up medication from the vet, administer meds, and feed my pup. She also took care of my other two dogs' potty and loving needs while there. I'm so thankful!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for years and have always had them in my home growing up. Unfortunately, in a small apartment, I can’t have my own right now but would love to walk and care for all the pups! I am a full time student with a relatively flexible schedule for walking/ check ins with pups during the week and weekends! I am generally more free in the afternoons, but can do some mornings! I promise to take care of the pets just like they are my own! I know how important and a part of the family our pets are and will care for them as such.

About: I’ve had dogs throughout my life and currently have three of my own! I often watch my family and friends’ pets when they go on vacation or out of town! I don’t mind walking, playing, bathing, or giving your fur babies all the attention they need/want! I work full time M-F 8-4:30. On days I work, I can guarantee that your dog(s) go out right before I leave for work and right when I get home and right before bed. On days I don’t work I will make sure your dog goes out every atleast 3 hours with plenty of play time. At my home, I currently have 6 dogs of my own that are crate trained so if your dog(s) aren’t too fond of other dogs I can keep them separated. I prefer pets to be crate trained so if I have to leave the house they can be put up to ensure they don’t get into anything but it’s not a deal breaker if they aren’t. I can feed, water, and give medicine if need be based on your pets needs.

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. Caring for animals has been my life long ambition. I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your fur babies. My fiancé And I love training and exercising with them every day and they push us to be the best we can be. They bring so much joy and happiness to our life. I have 5 years experience pet sitting for friends and family as well. They are the support system that told me about this app. Work from home but it’s not very demanding. Extremely flexible schedule. Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. To continue to keep your (our) fur baby safe I will keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Move all chemicals to high shelves or behind secure doors. Keep cords, chargers, and other potentially harmful items out of reach.

About: I provide calm, reliable, and attentive pet care with a strong focus on safety, routine, and emotional well-being. I’m patient with puppies, gentle with seniors, and attentive to pets who need extra reassurance. I treat every pet like family and follow owner instructions closely. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and companionship so pets are never rushed or neglected. I’m dependable, punctual, and flexible when needed. I maintain a clean, pet-safe environment and prioritize supervision, secure doors/gates, and consistent routines. In clients’ homes, I respect their space while keeping pets comfortable, exercised, and stress-free. I watch closely for behavioral or health changes and communicate promptly.

About: Not only have I been dog sitting for the last 15 years, but I also have a lot of other experience with pet care! I have worked in a pet store as well as in veterinary offices when I used to live back in Indiana so I have learned a lot about caring for animals. I attended veterinary nursing school too before I moved, but I didn’t get to finish before moving down here and am currently looking to re start schooling here in Alabama. While I there I gained even more knowledge on animal health and care. I was the kennel manager for the shelter pets that we had at the school, where I was in charge of administering oral and IV/IM pet medication. I have experience working with elderly pets with medical issues as my own fur baby who passed in 2025 suffered from CHF and she required a lot of extra care towards the end. I love all types of animals and have experience caring for not only just dogs and cats. Over the years I have owned reptiles, turtles, and currently own 2 rabbits as well as 2 cats and 1 dog! If you book with me I will treat your pet as though they were my own so you can rest easy knowing they are loved and taken care of! I only work part time, so I have a very flexible schedule. I will have plenty of time to spend time with your pet! I am not typically away from home for very long, so I will be able to regularly come to check on your pet. I have a large fenced in yard and a dog door that my two dogs go in and out of freely. I will walk or run with your dog daily. There is usually always someone in my house at home at all times, who all love to interact with dogs. I have one other dogs. She is typically nice with other dogs but can be very skittish, so they would need to be introduced prior to being watched. The safety and comfort of all of the dogs including my own are my priority, so it needs to be a good fit. My dog does love to play a lot so they usually enjoy having another furry friend to play with. My 2 cats and 2 rabbits also live in the home, but the layout of the house allows them to stay in the upstairs portion of the house and it is blocked off to allow them to be separated. They all get along, but I feel more comfortable to allow them to have their own spaces.

About: I am very passionate about keeping your pet safe and active. I have a very flexible schedule and can even take your animal to parks, appointments, or just for car rides. I have a very flexible schedule and can help be apart of walking your pet. I am very active myself so I can also help burn some of your pets energy! I provide attentive, reliable care in my home or in my client’s home, following each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy.

“Frankie goes above and beyond when carrying for my fur babies. I was out of town when Frankie came to care for my dogs and not only were my dogs completely taken care of, but Frankie also made sure my house was secured after each visit. I was always well informed of my dogs care and needs after each house visit / dog walk. Frankie followed all of my directions completely and even applied hotshot spray to my dogs backs because of their seasonal allergies. While I was away on travel, I had absolutely no worries about my fur babies! Frankie will always be my number 1 choice for dog walking and house visits!”
