Dog Walking in Columbus

About: What sets me apart is my lifetime of personal experience. I’ve cared for my own dog through every stage of her life, from her energetic puppy days to her quiet senior years. This has taught me how to handle everything from puppy training and basic commands to giving extra patience and gentle care to an older dog. I understand the unique needs of a dog's entire life and can provide a calm, loving environment for all ages. I’m currently not working, but I’m hoping to make this a full-time gig! That being said, you tell me a date and time, I’ll be there! I do not have a yard due to living in an apartment. However, the complex has accessibility to walking trails and a park! I’m also willing to drive your pet to a dog park or wherever! The apartment is on the first floor, so there’s no trouble if your dog has sore joints! In your own home, I’ll follow your schedule for consistency! I can stay for how long and how often you need!

“Beyond what we could wish for when looking for a caretaker for our sweet hound boy. Lisa is fantastic, flexible, worked with our funky schedule, not flustered by anything that could come up, and Harvey loved his walks. We will absolutely be using her again!!!”

About: I have had many animals my whole life ranging from dogs to even an iguana. I grew up with 3 German Shepards and now have a good boy of my own. I also adopted my one eye'd kitty as the perfect companion to my dog and they are two peas in a pod. Spending the majority of my free time with my pets has made me want to help out to those who want to give their pets the all day care they need. Pets are like children to me and I would provide the same care for your furry baby the same as I would a real one. :) I work part time in the mornings, and by the afternoon I am home all day with the animals or playing with them at a park somewhere. I also have plenty of time during the weekends as well. I live in an upstairs apartment with a fenced balcony that my animals love to go and lay out on. When we're inside they are entertained by the large amounts of toys they have to choose from (and room to run around when the zoomies take over.) I also take my dog out on long walks to all the nearby parks and out to play at the dog park included with my apartment complex. I am a clean freak and always have the house spotless for the next day of play.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and that lifelong experience has shaped me into a patient, attentive, and genuinely passionate caregiver. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m someone who truly understands different personalities, needs, and stages of life. I have hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies who need consistent training and structure to senior pets who require gentle care, medication routines, and extra comfort. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and understood, while giving you complete peace of mind when you’re away. I work a part time job with a pretty consistent schedule while also going to school online. I plan my days to make sure I can give each pet the attention, exercise, and companionship they need—whether that’s early-morning potty breaks, midday check-ins, or consistent evening routines. On a weekly basis, I dedicate time for longer walks, and special care for senior pets. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I create a calm, safe, and structured environment where they can relax and settle in comfortably. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and make sure they always have access to fresh water and cozy resting spots. I pay close attention to their routine, preferences, and any special needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks for puppies or a quiet space for senior pets.

About: I've grown with cats & dogs my entire life, which has steered me into becoming a dog groomer over 5 yrs ago now (Find me at unleashed in seymour). I have some dog training knowledge, thanks to my line of work. So, if your struggling to leash train, I may be able to help. Since, I do have a full-time job, I don't have a lot of availability (but i have a wedding to pay for so, I need the extra money & flexibility). However, I can brush while your gone, bathe if they get dirty on the walk or while playing during my visits. During the week (except for some fridays), drop-in visits would be 5:30 am & between 4- Potentially 7pm. Being a dog groomer you never know how the day is going to go. On days I'm off, just let me know what time(s) you want me there. Some people that know me have a actually called me a dog whisperer, because of how quickly I can get most dogs to love me. Even the ones that don't like grooming!

About: I work from home full time and I’m looking to care for some local dogs! I’ve had 2 dogs over the past 16 years and they’ve been the best part of life. I understand how difficult it is to find a safe space for your dog when you’re trying to enjoy some time away from home so I’m looking forward to helping out any way possible! I am fluent in Spanish as well. :) Working full time but I work from home so can step away if needed. I usually have open availability during weekends and holidays as well. I’m able to easily adapt to any routines you already have for your dogs so you don’t have to worry while you’re away! For walks, I know it’s usually their favorite part of their day so I can also adapt to their speed/cadence.
