Dog Walking Wine Ridge

“Kristine checks in on my dog weekly. She is so kind and patient with him, especially when he was nervous at first. I know my dog is in good hands with Kristine and I don’t have to worry about my dog on my long work days.”

About: I have had experience with dogs of every kind since I was born. I have cared for dogs of all ages between eight weeks and eighteen years old. My family had no less than four dogs and two cats when I was growing up. I got to care for large golden labs and for elderly yorkies and I love them all! I have extensive experience with all kinds of dogs, and I would love the opportunity to love on your pet. I am a college student here in Birmingham and my schedule is flexible! I can easily customize my availability and accommodate my clients as needed. Due to dorm living I am unable to have pets in my home. Due to dorm living I am unable to have pets in my home.

About: I had 3 cocker spaniels as a kid, separately, loved them, they loved me. Did everything together. Would love more time with dogs. Cats, too I work 5 evenings a week from 5pm-10, (shorter that overnight sleep), off Monday and Thursday. It has worked out great for both sides. Just a mile from home. There’s community property where pets do their business, we’re required to pick up poop. All dogs are leashed to avoid issues. Leashing required in Hoover.

“Jessica was amazing with our blind dog. She took great care of her on walks and potty breaks. I highly recommend her for any type of dog.”

About: What sets me apart is my extensive hands-on experience caring for animals in both veterinary and everyday settings. I graduated from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Science Pre-Vet and have worked as a veterinary assistant and kennel technician, caring for up to 40 dogs and cats at a time. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and personalities and have experience administering medications, monitoring health and behavior, and recognizing when something may not be quite right. My love for animals goes far beyond work. I’ve volunteered walking and fostering dogs through the humane society and have run my own pet-care business caring for dogs, cats, and horses. I also have extensive veterinary experience with horses, including working at Hagyard Equine Medical Institute and Alabama Performance Horse Services. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ll treat your pets with the same attention, patience, and care I would want for my own. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to make time for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also happy to work with each pet’s normal routine and schedule so they feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets because I feel the same way about my own! I have a cat, Edo, and a dog, Henderson, who are both very loved and have taught me that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I always want pets in my care to feel as safe and comfortable as I would want Edo and Henderson to feel with someone else. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of both their space and their normal routine. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely and make sure pets receive plenty of attention while also respecting their boundaries. With my veterinary and animal-care experience, safety is always a priority, and I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, or overall well-being.

“Kate did a great job walking our very energetic black lab, Bubba.”

About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and have experience caring for dogs and cats with different personalities and needs.

I’m retired, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting during the week and on weekends. I’m happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s needs. I always put your pet’s safety and comfort first.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a kiddo! Dogs and cats. I had my maltipoo, Georgie, for 18 years. I had my cowboy corgi, Squeaks, for 4 years and just recently lost him due to cancer. He is missed very much. My work schedule is very flexible. I work from home and usually within an hour of Birmingham. Rarely travel out of town. I make my own schedule. My latest pup, Squeaks, had cancer. He was on a holistic journey from July to Thanksgiving. He was on all natural supplements and I also cooked his food fresh every week. Ground turkey, sweet potatoes and veggies. Unfortunately, his Tumor had progressed and I had to make the best decision for him a few weeks ago.

About: I have always been around dogs since I was a kid. Between my own, family members and neighbors, I have cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for many years and been able to adjust to each dog’s needs with no problem at all. I am great at tiring pups out with play or long walks or hanging with them if they are on the lazier side! I work part time in Pelham so I’m looking to take care of dogs for fun and some extra cash! I am available differing days of the week depending on my schedule, but when I am free I will be able to tire out the pups with long walks or extended play sessions if they so desire! I will easily be able to navigate client homes and learn a dogs likes and dislikes quickly to make for a smooth and comfortable experience for the pups.

“I appreciate it. Thank you!”

About: Animals love me. They always come up and sniff or lick me. I have had pets since I was little and multiple at a time during college. I will keep your pet safe! I work as an MLO so I am at home when I need to be and have time. You do not have to worry about your pet being alone for hours at a time. I also have a porch with a door, so if they like to be outside sometimes, they don’t have to be cooped up or in a cage all day.

About: I’ve always had cats, and usually they were strays that we took in. As a teenager, I would pet sit for my neighbors frequently when they were out of town- cats and dogs! I had two dogs growing up. Now as an adult, I have 2 cats of my own, Sinclair (5yo male) and Petal (1yo female)! For most of June and July I will be free week days and weekends! Starting in August, I will be available in afternoons and on weekends. I am willing to spend time with your cats and dogs, play with them however needed, and I can take your dogs on long walks!

About: I’ve been around and loved dogs quite literally all 27 years of my life. From a teacup Chihuahua to a Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix, I have owned and loved dogs of all shapes and sizes. I truly believe they are man’s best friend and should be treated as such! My living situation does not allow for pets at this time, so I am happy to interact with pets as much as I can. I’m currently working full time in church ministry, which allows much flexibility during the week days. I am fairly open on all days of the week except for Tuesdays. I also am happy to dog sit in the client’s home on weekends and during the week as needed. For all services, whether walks or overnight stays, I would be happy to provide the client with as many updates as they would like throughout the service, as well as send picture updates! I am happy to do whatever makes the client feel most at ease and comfortable.

About: Trusting your dog with anyone is a big deal, and I want you to feel at ease the entirety of the stay. Just know that you can count on me. I will not only make sure they are safe but also give them lots of love. Experience: I’ve always been a big animal lover! When I was around 13, I began pet sitting for friends and people around the neighborhood. Now, I have about 6 years experience pet sitting different clients. Taking care of and just being around dogs gives me so much joy, and I think this is the greatest job in the world!😊🐾 The sitting process: If wanted, I am available for meet and greets to make sure I am the perfect fit for you and your family! During the pet sitting process, I will give you updates on how your dog is doing, and send you pictures of your baby while you are away. I can take them on walks, play, feed, give them medication, and more. Just ask if there’s anything special you need done. I will request a lot of information about what your needs and wants before hand just to make sure we are on the same page. If I am staying at your home, one of my goals is to make your lives easier! So if there are little things that need to be done I can do it if asked. I am very responsible. I am an accounting major, so I am very detail oriented, precise, and responsible in anything that I do 😉 About me: I am 21 years old and currently enrolled at the University of Utah. But, I live in California now with my parents finishing my last year of school online! I am going to be a lease accountant when I graduate. Because I can do everything from my computer, I have a ton of time for your pet. I also, have 3 pets (2 dogs 1 cat) but they are technically my parents, so I can make your pets my priority! I am currently finishing up my senior year of college doing online classes, and when I graduate I already have a work from home job lined up. So, I have a lot of spare time to care for your pet! I am available even on short notice a lot of the time. I do all my school on my computer so I can keep your dog company without leaving them alone. Trust is the most important thing for me when dog sitting. I want you and your dog to both be able to trust and rely on me. It is so important to find someone trustworthy when it comes to our pets because they are the most important things in the world for us. Feel free to call or FaceTime me anytime to see how your baby is doing. I will always answer. I will send updates and photos. I will also let you know whenever I go somewhere. And like I said, I am available to do a meet and greet before hand.

About: I have animal experience in a shelter setting and in a medical setting. I’m currently working at a veterinary office as a kennel attendant. I’m also able to administer medications orally or via injections. I work from 8-6, but I get a two hour lunch. I’m able to drop in and check on animals in the mornings, on my lunch break and after work. I’m always mindful of an animals mood and try to adjust accordingly. If there’s treats, toys or routine that make an animal comfortable the that’s what I try to follow.

“Took great care of of Pres while we were gone, loved seeing her happy face in the pics from her report card, gave us such peace of mind! Thank you!!”
