Dog Walking in Athens

About: I have watched a variety of dogs, including large, small, and puppies. I have two dogs at home, one is 10 and the other is 2. I care for both of them all the time and I am experienced walking and house sitting. I also have experience with cat sitting. I am working part time, so I will be watching dogs in my free time! I currently have a very flexible schedule, but please message me to determine my exact availability. I will take great care of your dogs in your home, while being respectful of your space and pets. I have LOTS of cleaning experience in case of an accident :)

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I have experience volunteering at my local animal shelter, as well as years of providing care through Rover, so I am confident in my ability to care for your pet. I love all animals of all shapes and sizes. I would be happy to walk, feed, pet, play with, and take care of whatever else your cute little friend needs while you’re away. I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog-walking services at a reasonable price. I am flexible and willing to work with you to find the best arrangement for everyone! I’m great at following instructions, so you don’t have to worry about your pet not being properly cared for. Please contact me with any questions or additional services you may be interested in.

I have plenty of patience to figure out the best way to interact with your pet while they are in my care. I have many years of experience caring for and training animals with various personalities and needs.

“Thanks for the walkies and sniffs!!”

About: For awhile I have had dogs and cats all over me. Growing up I have been in charge of family pets occasionally just making sure they are loved and fed. I also have dog/cat sit a few times for my friends/neighbors while they are on vacation. I have also done a good job on following directions and taking care of issues. Right now I am in college at Ohio University, I definitely have time to watch any animals you have anytime before or after my classes and during the weekends! I have two black labs and two cats that I love endlessly, I play with them all the time making sure they are played with and fed well, as well as my family does too. One of my dogs has been through surgery for back legs after both tore ACL which causes to limp and with that, I know ways to help care for in a situation for any dogs.

“Nicole was great! She handled my two big dogs like a pro and was great communicating with this anxious dog mom.”

“Emma is great! Our pup brisket is pretty reactive, and Emma got to know her and they were able to become friends. She is very responsive and always lets you know if anything comes up. Thanks for taking good care of our pup!”

I have also two years of experience caring for dogs at the shelter and currently two cats of my own! I’m currently working part time and in college so plenty of time in between classes to pop in or take your pup for a walk! I plan on doing my best to keep your pet safe. Like always accompanying your pet when playing out side and making sure toys, treats and food are approved by the owner!

About: For as long as I’ve been alive, I’ve had dogs and cats of all kinds around me. As I’ve grown up, I’ve been put in charge of my family’s pets on multiple occasions, even loving and caring for my own cat for the last seven years since she was two months old! Lately I’ve made quite a name for myself in pet care around the Cincinnati area, doing multiple petsitting/walking jobs during my 2023 summer break. I’m loved by all pets I take care of, and I love them! I take plenty of photos (see my photo gallery for some of the greats!) and send plenty of updates so fur-parents can have peace of mind while they’re away. Plus, I make sure your home is nice and tidy when you return! I would love to meet your babies and give them as much love as I’ve given my own pups and kitties. Please don’t hesitate to send a request! This semester, I’ll be working in a research lab that requires me to be gone for 3-4 hour intervals in a day. Other than that, I’m free to care for your pets every day! My family rescues dogs of all kinds, so I have experience caring for elderly dogs and dogs with special needs (medicines, special food, etc). I can assure you that I will handle any special instructions/needs that are necessary! I have less experience caring for cats that have special needs, but I am always willing to learn and grow my experience with all kinds of pets.

About: Hello! I'm a longtime cat and dog owner who loves having animals around. I understand that all animals have distinct personalities and therefore can have unique needs. I have experience with giving cats and dogs medicine and am happy to go for lots of walks and provide some play time! I work full-time during the day, but I’m close enough to home to swing by for lunchtime check-ins or potty breaks. I’m fully available on evenings and weekends for walks, playtime, and overnight stays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, I have a backyard that's great for supervised outdoor time, and I live close to a bike path that’s perfect for long walks. I’m attentive to any special instructions and happy to send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since before I was in elementary school. I have had a dog of my own for 10 years and I have been relied on by friends and family members to watch their animals when they are away. I’m currently a full-time college student at Ohio University, so taking care of pets is more of a weekend or holiday gig for me! I could fit a daily walk in to my schedule too! However you need me to care for your pets, I can do it! I am incredibly patient when it comes to animals and am willing to do just about anything to make them happy, comfortable, and well taken care of.

About: I live with two cats when I’m home from college, as well as used it having my beloved 130lb French mastiff. I’ve been caring for animals that range from reptiles, horses, chickens, fish, cats, and dogs for over ten years. I’ve also administered medication to dogs. As well as helped train animals. I’m currently an unemployed college student that’s working on two degrees and a certificate. I’ll be busy Monday and Wednesday from 2-6pm due to classes. Unfortunately I will be unable to care for your pet at my home because of my landlords rules, but at your home I will follow all the rules set for me as well as any schedule your animal may follow. Whether that may be feeding, walking, or medicine.

About: I bring personal experience, genuine care, and versatility to every pet I look after. I currently care for my senior dog at home, so I understand the extra love, patience, and attention older pets need, whether it's administering medication, assisting with mobility, or just offering a calm presence. I also have experience with both big and small dogs, and I’m comfortable handling different energy levels, temperaments, and routines. Whether your pet loves long walks, snuggles on the couch, or anything in between, I adapt to their needs. In addition to dogs, I’m also comfortable caring for small animals like guinea pigs and understand their unique care routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. I’m a college student with a light class schedule, so I have plenty of time during the day to give your pet lots of attention and care. My schedule is pretty flexible throughout the week, and I’m happy to work with you to find the best times for walks, play, or sitting! In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, medication, playtime, or just company, I make sure your pet feels cared for and not alone while you're away. I’m also respectful of your space, keeping things tidy and secure. For pets with special needs, like senior dogs or small animals/fish, I take extra time to make sure they’re safe and happy. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands.
