Dog Walking Darbydale

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and understand that pets are family. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and skilled at recognizing behavioral changes and individual needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their dogs by feeding them, taking them on walks, providing companionship, administering basic medications when instructed, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I have experience providing both in-home pet sitting and boarding dogs in my own home. Before transitioning into the corporate world, I partnered with a friend who owned a successful dog-sitting business, where I cared for pets for approximately six years. During that time, I gained experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and care needs. I’m now excited to return to pet care because it’s something I truly enjoy. I enjoy spending quality time with pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, cuddles, or simply someone reliable to keep them company, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own animals. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member is in caring and trustworthy hands. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication routines, and plenty of affection. I’ll communicate with you throughout each visit by sending updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them for a walk, I’ll provide patient, loving, and attentive care while respecting your home and your pet’s boundaries. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure your furry family member feels comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way.

“Lacey was great with Varney, taking him out as far as he needed to go to do his business. She also let him sniff and chew sticks which is part of his routine.”

About: I have been around and had cats and dogs all my life. In the past 5 years I’ve learned even more since having a German Shepherd in my life 😂😍. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats and 7 ferrets. I spoil them and love on all of them. I have trained my dogs to not jump on people, sit and stay. A few of my ferrets let me potty train them lol. I just left my career in corrections to be a part time nanny and pet sitter. I have commitments at various times on different days but have breaks in between and no on-going commitments in the evenings or weekends. My pet first aid/cpr certification is through the Red Cross. N/A. My services will be drop in and walks. If it was ever necessary for a dog to come to my home I have a fenced in back yard. 6 foot privacy fence.

“Taylor has been very helpful. She has come and walked our very energetic dog on a weekly basis and I have had 0 difficulties getting ahold of her or getting feedback about how everything went. She is very sweet and a great choice for your pet!”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up caring for pets of my own as well as family members’ dogs. Over the years, I’ve gained plenty of hands on experience with feeding, walks, playtime, keeping them company, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I especially enjoy spending time with small dogs and love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’ll treat your dog with the same patience, attention, and affection I would give my own. Pet care will be my full-time focus, so I’ll have plenty of time and flexibility to give each dog the attention and care they deserve. I’ll be available throughout the day for walks, feedings, potty breaks, bathing/cleaning, playtime, and companionship. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll follow their normal routines while giving them plenty of attention and affection throughout the day. I’ll take the time to learn each dogs personality, preferences, and routines and I’ll always approach them with patience and kindness so they feel comfortable and loved while in my care. I want every pet to feel happy, relaxed and well cared for while their owners are away. 🫶🏼

I can also help with any plant care, fish feeding/cleaning or other household management tasks as needed.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since high school. I hesitantly used this app when I moved to Columbus, and have become a huge fan. I know how scary it can be to trust a stranger with your pet. I’d love to be your trusted partner for when you’re away! I own my own business, which I work remotely, so I am extremely flexible on timing and am available most days to care for your pets! I am adaptable to your pets care needs. I prefer to step into whatever routine you currently have, as to not disrupt your pets normal!

“After 2 walks with Mallory, I'm pleased. Jimmy knew what she was here for the second walk. He's tired after, which is what I wanted. I added a pic of him sleeping tonight (1 1/2hrs) after his walk. His eyes are rolled back in his head, and snoring. Mallory is very kind and obviously loves animals. I'm so grateful to have found a great match. Excited to see Jimmy be more active.”

About: I love dogs! I’ve always loved them. When i got my first dog at 8 I was terrified. I would scream and jump on the toilet. She wasn’t even the size of my backpack lol. As the years went on I grew not only a pet but a sister! She was there for me even when i didn’t think i needed her. I want to give your pet the same love I gave to her! Right now i have a mini golden doodle. She is a very special dog lol. She gets on my nerves but i wouldn’t trade her for anything. She’s always doing different things to keep me on my toes. I would make sure that your dog is properly cared for. Whether that is playing fetch with them or taking them for a walk. I live in an apartment that has a huge field. They will get the proper exercise for sure. I love to run with them.

About: I’ve always loved being around animals and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats for family and friends. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and following each pet’s individual routine. I know every pet has their own personality, so I take the time to learn what makes them comfortable — whether that means lots of play and attention or giving a shy pet time to warm up to me. I’m very attentive to instructions and will treat your pet and home with the same care and respect I would want someone to give my own. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates during visits so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing! I have a flexible weekly schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet care! I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including evenings and weekends.

I’ll follow their normal routine and your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any household rules. I’m careful about keeping doors, gates, and leashes secure, and I’ll always supervise your pet appropriately. I also understand how important it is to trust someone in your home. I’ll treat your space with respect, clean up after your pet, and make sure everything is left the way I found it. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention while you’re away.

About: Available M,T,Th,F for evenings. W,Sa,Su available all day!! Hi there, I’m Kaisee and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies. I’ve worked closely with dogs (and cats) for many years now. From dog sitting and grooming to working at an emergency vet clinic, dogs have always had a special place with me. I understand that personal lives outside of the house can be hectic and that unfortunately dogs aren’t allowed everywhere we can go, I’m here to make sure your best friend/fur child will get the attention they need when you aren’t around and I promise not to spoil them too much. I can give grooming tips if needed and know how to train for basic commands, if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your four legged best friend. :) I work early hours M,T,Th,F so I am off work every Wednesday and home by 4pm other days. I also know that work isn’t the only thing that keeps us out of the house. Can always check in before bed time so clients can enjoy a late night out. When entering a new clients residence I am sure to keep everything neat and tidy and make sure your pet is safe and healthy. Talking in a soft voice as to not scare any pets and make sure all things are secure before leaving.

About: I’ve been walking with another app, and I absolutely love it! I have a few regular clients I see, but I would love to add a few more fur babies to my daily agenda :) I’m currently saving for my wedding, and I’m a stay at home mom, so every dollar is greatly appreciated! :) I promise your babies are in great hands. I’m currently a stay at home, with more than enough time on my hands! Honestly taking care of the fur babies brings me so much joy, while I can still enjoy the freedoms of not having a “9-5” job. I’m very thankful for each and every opportunity’ The most safe!!! I’m a mom and I have eyes like a hawk! They are in great hands. I truly take a lot of pride in the work that I do, and I know each and every fur baby is irreplaceable and I treat them as such :)

About: I've been a dog owner and animal lover my entire life, giving me firsthand experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a current pug and cat parent, I understand the importance of providing pets with a safe, loving, and reliable environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own and am committed to ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits well into my current schedule. I work a fulltime professional position during the weekdays, which allows me to provide pet care services during evenings, weekends, and select weekdays depending on the pet's needs. I'm organized, reliable, and committed to ensuring pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. We live in a community with walking paths and a couple of ponds that we enjoy walking to with our pups. I will be happy to walk yours through the neighborhood as well.

About: Hello, I grew up with a houseful of pets and now I am an owner to 3 small dogs and 3 kitties. As a mom to four daughters and six pets, I understand the stress of trying to plan a vacation away from home. I have dealt with my share of good and bad Pet Sitters over the last few years. I am 41 years old and have strong moral values and am very compassionate/ empathetic to all people and I feel that it is important to say about my character in these wild, uncertain modern times. I do have a full-time job that is 100% remote and very flexible in my daily schedule. I would like to meet new local families and help provide reliable, trustworthy care for your beloved pets! I have a fully remote, flexible schedule. My kids do not play any sports so I don’t have extra curricular activities to attend regularly. I’m hoping to find people in my area or surrounding neighborhoods. I am not ready to board in my home since it is a full house here with four kids, three dogs and 3 cats but I have the freedom and ability to come to your home, let your pets outside, feed them, give medicine, take a walk and give lots of pets and belly rubs.

I’m currently transitioning jobs in life right now, so very free flexible and can stay home with them all day every day!! and give them the priority and care and attention. They deserve. Boarding in your home or my home is the same promise and that is of safety, love and positivity trove energy! their needs being taken care of and playing with them and until their heart’s content.
