Dog Walkers in Braceville, OH

About: Hello!! I have been caring for all kinds of animals since growing up on a small farm as a child. We always had many different farm animals and lots of cats and dogs. As an adult I have always had at least a cat, and currently have 3 dogs and 4 cats...basically a small zoo hahaha. I am used to dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Currently, I have a 9 year old German Shepherd that weighs 120 pounds...he's a very gentle giant that we have had since he was a pup. He has bad knees(has had multiple surgeries) so I'm used to caring for his special needs and giving daily meds. (Pupdate on my 120 lb bff - I lost my baby boy pretty unexpectedly March 31, 2025- he had just turned 10. My heart was torn to shreds from his loss😭) We also have a 7.5 year old German Shepherd. She weighs 85 pounds and is a rescue with extreme anxiety. We call her our backyard/house dog only. It is where she is most comfortable so that's where she stays to fit her needs!! And last but not least, we rescued our baby girl almost a year ago. She is likely a lab mix and around 50 pounds/ 1.5 years old. She needs lots and lots of exercise and attention!! I am very familiar with puppies and the extra needs they require. I've also cared for really senior dogs as we lost our Lab boy of 14 years to cancer not long ago. I decided to look into doing this as we are always looking for someone reliable to help us out when we need to leave our animals. I realize they are not just part of your family...they are family and it's hard to leave them and be comfortable with it. I would love to meet you and your pets before we set up to determine that everyone is comfortable and compatible and to make your leaving them with me stress-free! I look forward to hearing from you! I am self employed and work mostly from home. My schedule is flexible and mine to make. I can make most anytime work! Look forward to hearing from you! I am currently unable to care for your pets in my home but I will take care of your pets In your home just as you wish me too! Detailed notes on the pets schedule, feedings, meds, etc work great!! House sitting rates may vary depending on your needs and wants for the care of your pet and your home. This will be discussed at the meet and greet!

“Allison was wonderful. She was so sweet and Lucy just loved her! She’s prompt, friendly, respectful and I’ll definitely have her help again in the future!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Steffi! I’m a reliable, calm, and attentive pet caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and helping them feel safe and cared for while their humans are away. I have experience with dog walking and drop-in visits, and I’m especially mindful of following routines, instructions, and each pet’s individual needs. I’m patient, observant, and respectful of both pets and homes, and I prioritize clear communication and consistency. Whether your pet needs a walk, a check-in, feeding, or some extra company, I aim to provide care that feels steady, thoughtful, and stress-free. A pup that loves hikes or extensive plays will have a great time with me. Pups that enjoy lounging in the house are also no problem :) I have a bachelor's degree in business, I have been a flight attendant, a sales specialist, and a customer service rep. I prefer to spend my time outdoors as much as possible :) I am currently self-employed and am able to have a flexible schedule. I enjoy getting outside, whether that's with a pup or on my own! I do not accept dogs in my own home, but I am available and happy to care for your pet inside of your own home.

About: We know that all animals feel safer in their own space. We understand all animals have needs and we have experience e from the smallest to the XL. We will be happy to care for your new borns to geriatrics. While we both work full time we know animals rely on us and they are a priority we will be happy to put yours a priority as well We currently use an invisible fence but have no problem walking dogs and cleaning up after them. We always ensure that your babies have what they need…some extra time…some extra loves..we got you covered!!

“Brandy clearly loves dogs and mine took to her right away. I love getting the updates and photos from their walks. You do want a reliable and flexible person taking care of your dog and she is that. Highly recommend Brandy!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life and I am the designated sitter among my friends and family. I have experience caring for all kinds of different dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! Taking care of your pets while you are away is my top priority and I will adjust my schedule as needed! I am happy to care for your fur babies in my home or yours! I have a beagle who absolutely adores other animals so your pet will have a playmate if you decide to have them stay with me at my home!

About: Hello! My name is Angela :) I love animals and taking care of them. I can be shy with people but with your fur babies i’m an open book:) I’ve had dogs most of my life and just pets in general. I have taken care of sick and senior animals as well. Currently no dogs or cats live in my home besides my lovely guinea pig max. I’m available any day with times in the early mornings and late nights and on the weekends I am very flexible! I’d love to take care of your dog(s) and/or kitties and be a part of their daily routine. Hopefully I can make their day and mine! If you have any questions or concerns you can contact me on my number or on the app. I hope you have a nice day/evening! (Background check is passed) I can visit your pet before and after my work schedule. I am also very flexible on the weekends or if you have any last minute changes. I have a guinea pig named max that I take care of every day! I make sure to greet animals with a smile on my face and a very calm manner. It can be scary for some pets to see a new face in the house when the owners are gone but I treat them just as well and make sure they are taken good care of before you come back :) I take safety processions and make sure they are always let outside if there is a fence or leash at the house and they are fed according to directions if needed.

About: I treat every animal as if it were my own pet- with lots of love, care, and compassion. I’ve watched many many animals over the past couple years and have loved every second of it. I know how to give many types of medication to different animals as well. I am able to help out with any animal needs outside of my normal job. I always make sure they have what they need, get love, and get some energy out! I treat every animal as if it were my own. Lots of love and care go into every animal I watch/take care of. I try to make it so the animals aren’t focused on missing the owner as much. For house sitting, if possible, I always ask if my fiancé can come stay as well as I have trouble at new houses alone. I always will try to make it work if not though! He will also come with me to meet you and your fur babies for a more peace of mind if needed!

About: I absolutely love animals and caring for them! I grew up with 2 dogs and now have 2 cats a dog and an African Grey bird. I’ve been dog sitting for years. I take pride in giving pups the best vacation of their little lives🥰 During the summer I have a very open schedule which makes it easy for me to dog sit or dog walk anytime of the day. I do go on vacation a couple times but usually not for very long, I also have a part-time job at the moment which helps for a flexible schedule to help people and their pets! I am very attentive and loving towards my pets and others I have had in my care. I love being outside and playing with dogs, as well as being responsible for their needs and what the pet owner expects of me.

About: I have 5 years of veterinary medicine experience and have fallen in love with taking care of pets! This side of animal caretaking removes the medical aspect and allows the animal industry to be a little more fun. I have wide open availability! I am currently self employed and make my own schedule so I can fit almost anything into my week ahead. The knowledge for safety is extremely important when taking care of someone else’s pet. I am able to read situations and be able to tell what and when a pet needs something. Reading a pet’s body language is super important and goes along with everyone’s safety.

About: I have volunteered at rescue shelters multiple times and have dealt with many different-aged dogs, old, young etc. There were over 50+ dogs so I would say I very much handle multiple pets well. I am in college right now at Hiram college, I am a junior and have classes Monday thru Friday. Monday,Wednesday and Friday I have class from 11:40-2 and Tuesday and Thursday I have class from 9:40-12 I have had multiple dogs that needed crate training so you will have no problem with that, I will also keep your fur baby very good company.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was little. We’ve always had up to 5 dogs at a time. I know the temperaments on dogs can change and it takes time for them to warm up to new people and surroundings. I’ve had experience with small, big, young and senior dogs! I have a car, I work 5 days a week, but I’m free before and after work, I love walking and getting out of the house! I take care of my dogs on a daily basis, all the essentials cares such as feeding, watering, bathing, taking them outside and sometimes walks.

About: I’ve been around all sorts of animals for my whole life and have a passion for caring for them. My family used to have horses, goats, birds, turtles, hamsters, squirrels, dogs, and cats growing up. My mom has been breeding German Shepards consistently for about 5 years now. I’ve helped her raise numerous litters and have spent countless hours playing with puppies. We also have 9 dogs total, 8 being German Shepards and one little dog, so I am more than comfortable taking care of dogs and happy to do so. If I were to stay over to watch your animals I could provide care for them up until 9 in the morning and when I return home from work at around 3:30. That would be Monday through Friday and then I have complete availability on the weekends. A few of our dogs stay inside during the day and night. Then our other dogs each have their own kennels that are big enough to run around in. We crate them separately at night. We also have a big backyard that is fenced in, where they can roam around and play.

About: Each and every animal that I come in contact with I am respectful and calm! I love every pet like it’s my own. Each dog requires different needs and I am completely understanding and will do what it takes for the animal to be the most comfortable and relaxed it can be. I am grateful for the love animals give me and I hope that I can give them that love back. Animals are part of families and I want to provide that comfort when their families are not around! I have expierence with being around all different animals since I was very young. I have been dog sitting since I was 13 years old. I have the experience you want for your loved family member. I work at a veterinary clinic so I have experience with working with all types of breeds. Being a vet assistant I am able to provide for your pet with the knowledge and confidence it takes to take care of any pet!! I work full time at a vet clinic and love to surround myself with all types of different animals! I find comfortable and peace giving people the option to have someone love their pets as my own when they are away! Any needs that your pet may need I am more than comfortable to provide. I deal with many different species and behaviors daily at my job and would love to do whatever your pets need to be comfortable.

“This was my first time using Rover (and the first time having anyone outside of family care for my puppy), and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I have a young Doberman with a lot of energy, and Arya was patient, calm, and firm in just the right way—which is exactly what she needs. He took her on a nice long walk, and I really appreciated the videos he sent along the way. They gave me peace of mind and made the whole process so much less stressful. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and confident with energetic dogs!”

About: Been taking care of dogs all my life..I also have a furry friend of my own I enjoy spending time with them and walking them I am available in the morning and mid afternoon time I am available everyday of the week I can do drop in visits or just taking your pet for a walk I always spend time with my dog. I enjoy playing with him. I give him monthly flea treatments and also take him to the vet for his care.

About: All pets have my heart. I’ve cared for cats and dogs ever since I was five years old, from feeding and bathing them to simply keeping them company. I have an anxious little dog of my own, so I understand how important patience, routine, and gentle care can be—especially when administering medication or offering comfort. Every animal I meet is treated like family. Thank you for considering me to be a part of your pet sitting needs. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine because I have pets of my own. I make sure they’re walked, fed, and cared for. From early morning potty breaks to evening cuddle time, I’m used to sticking to a consistent routine. I also handle grooming, playtime, and administering medication when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their routine as closely as possible. Walks, , feedings, bathroom breaks, playtime, and rest are all done on schedule. I always pay attention to their behavior and body language so I can meet their needs, especially if they’re feeling anxious or shy. I clean up after them, keep their space tidy, and give lots of affection and attention. Every pet gets treated like family, no matter where they are.
