“Madde was fantastic! I could not imagine a better experience. She took great care of our older dog and younger pup both equally. She is kind, thorough, and extremely knowledgeable with helpful tips for our new puppy. If you are on the fence, choose Madde.”

About: I took care of my neighbors four cats when I was a teenager, and I have owned several dogs and one cat over the course of my life. One of my dogs had canine cognitive decline (dementia), so I am familiar with that and all of the attached issues. I currently work two days a week in downtown Columbus, but that means that I am available some Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. Otherwise, my schedule is flexible since my other work is self-guided. I like to make sure that pets are comfortable and that my presence is not an imposition on them. This means that I am on the lookout for signs that they need to go outside or that it is meal time. I give them as much attention as they want and then let them do their thing.
“Amazing couple! They are great with my big dog and she absolutely love them! I feel relieved whenever they come to visit her and take her for a walk. They provide a wonderful service! Very well recommended.”

“Brittany is the best!! My dog Bowie absolutely loves his walks with her. She is timely, reliable, and knows what she's doing! Not only that, but you can tell she really loves dogs. She gives great updates and pictures too!”

“Faith has been such a wonderful, reliable walker for our dog Baz. She was kind enough to be able to come three times a week and walk/give love to our poor little separation-anxiety-riddled dog, which I just know made his entire day. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”

“Jackie has been great! We’ve only used her for walks so far but she has always showed up on time and used at least the full half hour. Leo always seems well exercised when I get home! She feeds him his lunch as well. :)”

About: I’ve always had dogs my whole life and am able to build a special connection with them! I can’t wait to build connections with more dogs, cats, and other pets! I am currently a college student home for the summer with lots of free time to care for pets!! I am only working a remote internship so my schedule is very flexible! Pets are just as important as people and are family! I make sure to treat my pets and others with care and respect, while also making sure they’re having fun and behaving well! Being the owner of a high energy dog myself, I am well aware of safety considerations as well!
About: My whole life there was an animal in my household. So ever since I was 5 years old I would help out. It started off as just feeding the dogs but as I got older I gained more and more experience. Taking the dogs on a walk, letting them outside, simple grooming, administering medicine, etc. Dogs and animals alike have a special place in my heart. They truly are man’s best friend. Even if it isn’t my personal animal it is my goal to give your furry friend the same care and affection that they deserve. I’m currently a college student in my sophomore year. I miss my dogs now that I’m not home, so I truly do give other people dogs as if they are my own. My schedule is mostly open in the evenings and I’m more than willing to work things out, even outside of hours that are listed in my profile. I would want to get to know you and your dog before I come into both of your guys domain. I would follow directions however you desire and most importantly treat them as my own fur baby.
About: I am a freelance graphic designer with plenty of flexibility in my schedule. Throughout high school I took care of large and small dogs, cats, and birds. Though it has been a few years since I was last a pet sitter, caring for and connecting with pets is not a skill that goes away:) As I work from can be around all day while I work and take the dog out when needed, or depending on what the owner is comfortable with I can stop over in shorter intervals throughout the day. Definitely want to spend enough time with pets and give them lots of attention so they don’t miss their owners too much or feel lonely!
About: Hi! I’m Jason. I had a several pets (cats, dogs, even chickens!) growing up and have been both dog and cat sitting since I was young. Currently have two kittens. I can cater to most pets’ needs. I’m a teacher on summer break, and completing grad school virtually, so I am available at a moment’s notice to care for your pup or cat. I am attentive and alert and very communicative. I can sense differences in pets and make quick decisions when necessary while communicating effectively with owners.
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and reliable companion while you're away, I strive to provide attentive, loving care tailored to their individual needs. I work from home so I can prioritize your pets needs around the clock. My schedule can work seamlessly with puppies or small dogs that need frequent bathroom breaks. At home, I care for my own dog like family. I have a Frenchie who I absolutely adore, and her daily routine includes regular walks, playtime, and visits to the park so she can stay active and social. She’s very friendly, gentle, and loves being around other dogs, so she’s a great example of the calm, positive environment I aim to provide for any pets in my care
About: I have a beautiful dog of my own at home, his name is Merlin, he is an Australian Shepherd Border Collie mix, and a huge bundle of energy! I am not unfamiliar with puppies, elders, big dogs, little dogs, and the like! I am comfortable interacting with dogs ranging from Great Danes, Golden Retreivers, and even Dachshunds! I am able to stay overnight, head over during early morning hours, and spend the night overnight! I work in Powell OH about 40 hours a week, 8 hour shifts on average. I get my schedule 3 weeks out, and I am happy to share it with any pet parents looking to book! I've just recently bought my car, so transportation is reliable! I love to take dogs on walks, play with cats and dogs alike, and cuddle with both of them, should they permit me to! I am fully willing to do whatever needed to keep you and your furbaby happy given I am able to do so!
“Chloe was so patient with our Redford. She took great care of him on walks, punctual, and is super attentive to directions. Highly recommend if you’re in need of a dog walker! Thank you, Chloe!”

About: I grew up within a household with a variety of animals. At one point we had five dogs, a cat, a bunny, a guinea pig, three hamsters, 5 birds, a bearded dragon, and a gecko. I learned at a very early age how to tend to animals (clean, feed, play, walk, potty breaks, etc) I enjoy helping others and especially caring for animals. They simply bring me joy. I have open availability (other than dates marked off calendar) and am flexible to try and accommodate your schedule as best as possible in order to make things easy for you and your pet. My male husband and I own a house with a fenced in backward and a neighborhood to walk in. Since I have open availability, I have time to tend to the animals without any distractions from other tasks.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 14 years old and have always had a genuine love for pets. Over the years, I’ve helped care for a variety of animals, including cats, ferrets, and dogs through pet sitting and house sitting for neighbors and family friends. I also have a 9 year old Border Collie/Lab mix of my own, who I’ve cared for and grown up with. Pet care is something I do on the side because I truly enjoy being around animals and building bonds with them. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet sitting and walks. Since this is something I do because I genuinely love animals, I’m open and adaptable to different pet care needs and always happy to help however I can! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for by being patient and understanding with their individual personalities and needs. With my own dog and other pets I’ve cared for, I’ve learned that building trust takes time, so I never force interaction. I let pets come to me at their own pace so they can feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Creating a calm, loving, and stress free atmosphere is always my priority.

Anna is always super helpful! I occasionally book with her to check in on my cat, Minnie, when I’m out of town. I also book with her to walk my dog Luka on days I’m gone at the office or plan to be gone for more than a few hours. She is great with both of them!!!
