Dog Walkers in Creston, OH

About: I've had two large-breed dogs for about 7 years. I'm experienced with their training, but also how dogs interact with other dogs and people. I'm familiar with walking large dogs and keeping them safe when exercising. I'm detail oriented, responsible and thorough. I am flexible with scheduling and have reliable transportation. I understand feeding schedules and can accommodate a schedule that fits your pet. I have availability during the week and weekend. Within my home, I have a fenced in yard, doggy gates and am always sure to keep their information up to date. I'm careful with closing doors and keeping pets leashed to make sure they are safe on walks. I'm aware to keep a safe environment and put food and other things they could get into away.

About: My wife and I love dogs and are active with local rescues. We have five dogs of our own at home, a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities! We have Lacy - a black lab, Goldie - a cocker spaniel, Cinder - a pit-bull mix, Timmy - a teacup yorkie, and our newest addition, Noelle - a golden doodle puppy. I have a flexible schedule and can usually fit in three or four drop-in visits a day. My wife and I are both in education, so we work hours that are conducive to a second job in pet care. My full time job is a middle school social studies teacher, so I have active background checks and certifications. In addition, we have three dogs at home that are certified therapy dogs and have their Canine Good Citizen certification. We make regular visits to local nursing homes with our pets.

“I recently hired Kerry as a dog walker for my Evan, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Kerry is incredibly reliable and professional. She also provides regular updates and is very communicative, which gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”

About: Hi! I’ve been checking on dogs and cats for 6 years. I have free time during the day and I’d love to stop in and see your furry friends! I love animals and being able to care for them makes my day. My toddler will be coming with me so your dog/s will need to be good with kids. I’m a Stay at home mom so I’m very flexible! Anytime after 9am and before 530pm is best for me during the week and weekends. When I check on your pet, I can give them love and attention, feed, play time etc whatever you need me to do I’ll be as helpful as I can.

About: I am a mom to 5 kids, a dog and a cat. I have been a pet owner since I was a kid, I can't remember the last time I didn't have a pet. I am the primary caretaker of a border collie lab mix and mixed breed cat. I am preschool administrator in the area, so I can be flexible throughout the week and have lots of love to share with your furry family members. I am also active and will run, walk or play to help release your pets energy and love your pets while you are unable to. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member. If you have any questions feel free to get in contact with me.

About: Life long animal lover, I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, fresh water aquariums and hamsters. It delights me to give other pet owners peace of mind while they are away from their furry, feathery or even scaley family members by providing care, companionship and security. Pet care is my main schedule priority, I also work as a wellness counselor part time but generally have a lot flexibility in my schedule as I mainly operate remotely for that and I am happy to work with you and your furbabies schedule needs. I do not currently offer care within my own home due to limited space but I am very happy to care for your pets within your own home or by taking them to a trail or park where they can be their happiest and most comfortable. It's important to me to ensure animals stick to their routines to ensure the least amount of stress while owners are away so the more detailed care instructions provided the better, I'm not afraid to adust my personal schedule to best fit the needs of any pet!

“Very friendly, excellent communication, and flexible/accommodating with scheduling. Has experience with many types of dogs, and is in tune with dog needs and safety. Reliable person that I trust to take care of my puppy!”

About: I grew up around pets since before I can remember and I love hanging out with any animals! I love playing and cuddling with them! I am currently a third year at OSU home for the summer. I also work at 17 Public Square. I am open almost everyday all day besides when those shifts are scheduled. I have two medium size dogs that I play with often and are crate trained as well. Therefore I can play with them, give them breaks in their crates or anything else!

“We had to go out of town for two weeks and leave our 13 year old lab at home with a relative. Sylvia came to the house to feed, give meds, take walks with her and give her the attention, that she craved. Sylvia sent us pictures and videos of their time together. She adjusted her schedule to give additional help when needed. We were at ease knowing our dog was in such capable hands. We highly recommend Sylvia.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up in a home with 3 dogs at all times. We have had a range of small pups, and also big/high energy ones like golden retrievers and huskies! I did obedience classes and shows with my Yorkee Poo for 4 years. I have provided dog sitting for close family friends for many years now, including walks, feeding, bathing, transporting (for a dog breeder), and boarding. I also raised five husky puppies, so I have a lot of experience with young pups, too. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine because I work from home while starting my own business, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins and walks any day of the week. I grew up with pets as a daily part of life, so caring for them feels familiar, natural, and genuinely fulfilling. Whenever I am caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow any specific direction given by the pet owners. Whether that is s feeding schedule, regular walks, cuddles, or crating, I always make sure to understand a client's expectations and take care of their animals with the same love and care that they would.

About: I have had pets all my life, dogs, cats, and cared for family's pets often, I would adopt every stray if I could. My first love is the caring and well being of all animals. I am young at heart, and retired. I could be Available most times as needed, to care for your pets in your home with visits for stays. I am trustworthy to visit or stay in your home and give your pet the love they need, in your home with visits or overnight stays. I have two dogs myself at home that i love and care for.

About: Although it was many years ago, I was a pre-veterinary student, so I worked for a few different veterinarians for 6 years. During that time i also house sat and walked dogs for many of our clients. I have continued to keep up with my knowledge and can give you a recommendation from my current/personal vet. In recent years I have house sat for and walked dogs for friends and family, Unfortunately, I can't have dogs to my home due to my rescue kitty, but i love taking care of all animals. I would also love to house sit and take care of kitties. I have also volunteered for a therapy program working with horses and dogs for kids with disabilities for the past 5 years, so I'm extremely comfortable with large animals too! I don't have another job, so my schedule is very open. I do like to go home for at least 4 hrs when possible, but that is negotiable. My goal is to keep your pet on their normal schedule and I'm really good at that! I follow all instructions to the letter! I love giving snuggles and walks. I will take care of your home as if it's my own! I will bring in mail, water plants, take care of bird feeders etc... just ask!

About: I've been around a variety of different animals my entire life including being an owner of dogs from the time they are puppies to being seniors. I've personally trained all of my animals. We love to go on walks and I love meeting new pets! Im mainly a mom and currently working part time hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays. If we can work together with a schedule, I would be more than happy to meet your pets! As friendly as my Luna is, I would not be bringing her to your home for drop-ins or walks since it would be overwhelming with my 3 year old. I am more than happy to take care of multiple pets for one home.

“Lexi is super sweet and prompt! She is very communicative about everything going on with my baby and Storm is very grateful to have her for walks/playtime when mom is busy 🐾❤️”
