Our Story
Wiggles and Wags Dog Walking Corp is a proud woman-owned and operated small business founded in 2020.
We excel in working with dogs that are challenging to walk because we firmly believe that every dog has the right to enjoy their environment and express themselves freely—specializing in structured dog walking and creating customizable packages suited for your household needs.
We uphold an obedience training base behind all of our services.
Our mission is to advocate for animals and their space, and we stand by it with unwavering commitment.
We prioritize honesty and clear communication, knowing these are crucial when caring for live animals. By focusing solely on the animal's needs and only booking services that meet those requirements, we ensure complete transparency about what is needed for their success.
We are a no-BS business that speaks the truth. Compassion and understanding are integral to our approach, and we are dedicated to ensuring our clients feel fully supported.
Our goal is always to work toward the best interests of the animals in our care, and we are confident in our ability to deliver results that make a difference.
Owner and founder
My name is Alexa Young
Hey, I'm Alexis, the owner and founder of Wiggles and Wags Dog Walking. With nine years of pet experience, starting my journey at 14, I embrace the belief that education and growth are essential in an ever-evolving industry. By holding ourselves to high standards, we continuously learn and improve while working with live animals.
I created Wiggles and Wags to offer a trusted and reliable service for those away at work or on vacation, ensuring consistent, easy booking and honest communication. My passion for pet care began with my own dogs, as I sought someone dependable to care for my beloved companions.
Having lived in Fort McMurray for nearly 18 years, I share my life with two dogs, Cujo and Zoey. My dream is to one day own an acreage that features a daycare and training facility, where I can also help rescue animals.
As for my favorite snacks and sweet treats, I enjoy Lays salt and vinegar chips, cranberry juice (as I like to joke, I’m 90 years old, lol), and dark chocolate!
