Why Families Trust Us

Most of our clients come to us because someone they trust recommended us. A neighbor. A veterinarian. A family member who's been bringing their dog here for years. In twenty years, we've cared for thousands of dogs—and many of their puppies, and even their puppies' puppies. That legacy of trust isn't built overnight. It's earned through consistency, integrity, and genuine care for every single dog who walks through our doors. When Mobile's most discerning dog parents choose us, we don't take that trust lightly.

Whether you’re looking for long term dog daycare, dog training boarding, or a quick trip in the pet taxi, you can count on us to treat your dog like family.

Walks and Wags is the ultimate genius, above-and-beyond dog enrichment / playcare program. They aren’t playing around when it comes to knowing what is best for your fur baby and more. Their playful professionalism isn’t matched by any doggie daycare or boarding facility we have encountered elsewhere. Cindie Carter and her team are true canine communicators. We were hopeful regarding a reputable, closer alternative when we moved across the bay, but the other turned out to be a failure compared to Walks and Wags. We will happily drive an hour each way for the quality and service at Walks and Wags that cannot be matched elsewhere. Training, report cards, storytime, mantra readings, pool time, massage, bath and nail trim… best part is the happily tired pup who can’t wait to go back to see his new girlfriend. Thank you Walks and Wags for enriching our lives!

I absolutely love Walks & Wags! My almost 10-year-old corgi named Glory is a client. My husband and I adopted Glory in February 2020. She has anxiety issues, and I was concerned she would not do well at a kennel. She loves her visits to Walks & Wags! The staff is attentive and we receive a daily report card of how she's behaved. During one visit while we were out of town, Glory exhibited signs of a urinary tract infection. The staff took her to our veterinarian, where medication was prescribed, and they picked her up after her visit. It is nearly impossible to find that kind of attention to detail the staff gives its clients, and piece of mind that provides my husband and me. I understand Walks & Wags is building a therapy pool for canines at its facility here in Mobile. Glory will be using that pool as I know I can trust the staff to be well-trained and competent in monitoring her during her water workouts. I can't say enough good things about Walks & Wags. If you are looking for a kennel or a doggy daycare, please don't look any further. Walks & Wags is where you and your doggo should be.

Walks and wags is the best thing about mobile! Our dog LOVES everyone there and gets so excited every time Larry comes to pick her up for daycare in their pet taxi service. They’ve helped us train our dog since she was a puppy and have been SO much help. Every day at daycare we get a report card detailing what activities the dogs did that day including what tricks they worked on and what kind of fun equipment they used. They work on leash manners They also give her baths and cute bows. Cindie and all staff are really responsive and always replied really quickly to any questions I’ve had. Highly recommend for anyone looking for puppy daycare or boarding. Absolute angels at Walks & Wags.

We absolutely love Walks & Wags! Everyone is committed to providing the very best care for our dog and she loves going there. ❤️❤️❤️ They provide more than just a safe place, they work with them through the day with fun and challenging games, social skills, obedience training, and then send a daily report card. We highly recommend them for day care and also overnight boarding.

Walks & Wags was highly recommended to me by 2 different people. W & W is Fabulous, caring, loving, clean, organized & safe! Staff is excellent, professional & knowledgeable! W & W & the staff truly have your fur baby’s best interest, both holistically & wholisticly. Very welcoming! My fur baby, is an almost 13 yo Cairn. She is spoiled, shy but out going, active, & enjoys socializing, like her pawrent. Amazing how fur babies can take on their pawrents personalities,lol. She’s smart & even though she is not in the ‘Puppy Academy,’ I continue to notice little things she is learning-Good Things, e.g. taking turns, sharing w/her dog cousins & nephew-just like a child. She knows the days she goes, & is excited. I can’t put into words how comforting it is to me, knowing she’s safe, well cared for & is clean & happy when I pick her up. Even though they send updates, pics & report cards, I miss her so much! It would be nice for them to consider having cameras for us pawrents who miss their fur baby can get a peek. Other than that W & W and their Staff get 👍🏼👍🏼 🐾🐾🐾🐾🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇

I recently boarded and groomed our two dogs at Walks and wags for a week, during my spinal surgery. Having boarded and utilized doggy day care in the past here; I knew I could undergo surgery and complete the early post op period without worrying about my canine kids 😉.

Walks and Wags provides consistently excellent, professional, and caring services. You don’t have to worry about your pets under Cyndi’s care. You may find similar services cheaper but not better. Peace of mind for the care of my dogs; is not something I want to bargain with….
