Dog Walking Dodds

About: My husband Jeff and I have 2 dogs and no kids. Our dogs are our kids! Our dogs are about 2 years old and get along well with other dogs. Both of us grew up with dogs and have had dogs that are both young and senior. We give our dogs lots of time and attention. We are responsible pet owners and believe in keeping them healthy, loved, safe, and part of our pack! I am retired and my husband works part-time so one of us is almost always home to care for your pet(s). If we are gone for a few hours, our dogs are caged in the house. Usually, it is if we go out for dinner or the store, so it's for short periods. If your dog does not do caging, that's ok as long as they are good! We have a large fenced yard. Our 6 foot privacy fence also has wire mesh at the bottom of the fence to make sure dogs are safe and can't get out (or other animals get in). Our dogs are about 3 years old and get along well with other dogs. They love to play and are free to move in the house and the yard, and they get regular walks. Dogs are allowed on furniture. We would love to be your pet sitter while you are away, and you can be confident your doggie will be happy, safe and loved!

About: I've had & taken care of cats & dogs since I was 7 years old! Over the past 5 years I've moved into caring for the pets of other's just as a favor to friends & family. Now I want to leave corporate America & care for furry family members professionally. I'm currently working on making pet sitting my full time job so my availability is completely open for around the clock care whether your pet is an early riser or a night owl! I prefer to care for pets in their own space as I have roommates at this time & our landlord doesn't allow pets on property.

“Jennifer is the absolute best!!! I can't not recommend her enough!! My pup was happy and well exercised when I got home. I appreciate her updates and photos. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pet like her own then Jennifer is the one to call.”

About: Hi, I’m Frankie! I’ve had animals my entire life and have been caring for them professionally and personally for over 20 years. I have a little zoo of my own, so I’m comfortable with just about anything—dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, horses, and even some creepy crawlies! I also have lots of dog training experience(although not certified) and don’t shy away from energetic, stubborn, or more challenging pets. I genuinely love getting to know each animal’s personality and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐾 My schedule is currently very flexible, so I’m available for drop-ins and walks throughout the week and on weekends. I can accommodate a variety of times during the day, but I do not schedule visits after 9 PM. I follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions closely. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes and feeding, and I always make sure pets are safe and comfortable before I leave. I’m also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates!

About: I have 10 years of experience. I can help with Boarding, Daycare and of course lots of playing! I love cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes. I'm a mom of 2 (I have a 15 year-old son and a 3 year old girl) I'm an active foster/member with a dog rescue that's mission is “helping the unwanted." We do not discriminate against breed, medical conditions, size etc. I've been involved with Furgotten Dog Rescue since it started in 2018. I've had fur babies my whole life and currently have 2. 1 lab mix (Rue and is 8) and 1 mini walrus (Lola she is 9) and 1 foster Stevie(3) who was beaten blind from his previous owners 😞 I've recently been able to care for animals full time and fulfill my passion as well as being able to spend time with my kids and husband. I have been doing this completely full time since Jan 2022 and I absolutely love it! ⭐️ Private Room ⭐️ 12x20 (240 square foot) 🤩 ⭐️ No kennel or crate (unless requested) ⭐️ Unlimited play time! ⭐️ Comfy beds and lots of toys to choose from ⭐️ Clean and sanitized after every stay ⭐️ 24/7 surveillance in the room 🐶 Schedule a meet and greet with your pup or come check it out for yourself 😊 Pets are just like our children. When I go out of town I hate worrying if my babies are taken care of, I know how important our pets are and I promise to keep them safe, well fed and happy while you’re away. My home is your pets home! I also have a 4ft fenced in yard. I never leave your dog unattended outside and if your pet may jump the fence I have a tie-out option Your fur babies will feel right at home that’s my mission.

About: Ive taken care of dogs my entire life but in the past few years Ive been caring for other people’s fur babies too! Some were senior or had health issues and needed medication and special care. I work part time with no set schedule and my shifts are usually 5 hours long. I have a lot of free time for long check ins or stays as long as a 5 hour gap while i’m working occasionally is okay with your pet. I will always treat and love your pet exactly as my own. Im adaptable to any kind of care your pet needs so you can be worry free

“Raven and her partner have been amazing support to us for our two dogs. They have been responsible, attentive and caring in every way we could wish for. They embraced each of our dogs for the characters they are, taking extra steps with our anxious baby and making sure both get their needs met. They communicated clearly and transparently. We couldn’t have asked for more. Definitely recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m Savannah! I was born and raised in Ohio! I used to do FFA and 4h I’ve worked with dogs, cats, fish, lizards and much more! I grew up with just about anything! I’d love to hang around all your animals to! Pet care fits into my routine by my flexible schedule I work with merchandising which allows me multiple hours in between shifts to do on walks, or just hang out with animals for a bit! In my clients homes we will go on walks with leashes, I will follow the directions that are also given to me by the owners of the animals to insure they stay safe!

“She was very sweet and had great communication. So good with our sweet doggie, and she was flexible and worked well with figuring out what she needed in the moment. Would book again!”

About: I have had my own pets since I was a kid! My family has two wonderful dogs who we got as puppies. I spent a lot of time learning how to care for and train puppies and now even in college I consistently drive home to dog sit for my parents while they are out of town. I also have experience watching a large number of dogs, caring for deaf dogs, feeding, administering medications, walking, and more. I understand the need for someone with attention to detail and a big heart as leaving your fur babies in the hands of someone else is never easy. I am always more than willing to help out and learn how to best care of your animals! I currently have a part time job at a coffee shop which leaves me plenty of time for pet care! I should have a consistent schedule which will make it easy to schedule in times/longer stays. I take great care to make sure your pets remain safe and happy when I am sitting for any family. I make sure I know what the pets can do while I am around and also what their limitations are. I have a great eye for detail and will make sure your pets are fed/given medicine on time, let out/walked when needed, and make sure they receive the love and attention they need. I tend to keep notes on me just to make sure I am not missing any little notes about what your pets prefer.

“Morgan is awesome!”

About: "I've taken care of pets of all ages and sizes since I was 15 yrs old. My own, and family member's pets have relied on me to walk, feed, play with, bathe, and love them." I currently am a work from home mother, with a flexible schedule. I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies as if they were my own. I am normally always outside with both my cat and dog in my free time. I have a 50ft lead if they want to sun bathe for a limited amount of time. I never have them out longer than 15-20 minutes at a time on hot days. They aren't unattended at anytime due to me not having a fenced-in yard. I have a screened in patio for relaxing and getting fresh air on the rainy days. I have a 2 acre yard, so plenty of room for playtime. I have the ability to crate if needed. My house has hardwood and tile floors, so puppies are welcome with puppy pads of course.

About: I have been helping to care for dogs since I was 10. I grew up with golden retrievers in the home and have been around dogs my entire life. Our Rottweiler recently passed away and my daughter and her were best friends! I am not ready to have a dog back in the house full time but have realized, after dog sitting for a friends puppy, this would be a great way to help care for others pets. I work from home so I am able to take frequent breaks for walks and potty breaks. I would not make myself available to care for anyone’s pets if I knew I was going to be out of the house for long periods of time. I also have a dog park in my neighborhood. I do not have a large yard, however; I do have a dog park in my neighborhood that is large and fenced in for great exercise. We would take frequent walks with my daughter around the neighborhood as well.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every animal. With 6 years of pet-sitting experience, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m very attentive to the little things and want every pet to feel just as safe, comfortable, and loved with me as they do at home. I love all animals although dogs are my favorite and I have a very cute Bernese named Bear at home! I work part-time and take online classes, which gives me flexibility in my daily schedule. I’m able to plan my day around pet care and provide consistency and companionship. I’m happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that best fits their pets’ needs! I make sure to follow their usual routines and keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible. I respect your home, keep everything clean and tidy, and make sure your pets are well cared for. I also provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I have been helping care for dogs since I was 10. I grew up with Dalmatians, dachshunds, black labs and Dobermans. To say I love dogs is an understatement. Our dachshund (16) recently passed away and my daughters and him were best friends! I am not ready to have a dog back in the house full time but have realized, after dog sitting for a friends and family’s dogs, this would be a great way to help care for others pets. My husband and I work from home so letting the dog out is no problem for us. While we do not have a fenced in yard, we do have a lead to let them out on and take frequent walks. We love to take dogs on hikes in the bike trails behind our house. Working from home enables us to make sure your doggy is well taken care of and loved on. We love walking dogs and playing fetch.

About: Hi! My name is Andrea and I’d love to hang with your pup! My preference is to house sit for you as I’m currently in a condo that might limit my availability to watch your fur baby in my home, but I’m open to discussing! I work remote, so my job allows me to work anywhere. It’s a win/win for you and me. If I go anywhere, I won’t be gone long or I’ll take them with me. I’ve had dogs in my family for all of my life. I had my own baby for almost 15 years and had to say goodbye a couple years ago (he’s pictured in the red wagon on my profile). I’d love to have another dog, but I haven’t found the right one yet. So in the meantime, I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family and found that I love it! I love all dogs and will love your furbaby as my own! I’m flixible and available last minute most of the time! My schedule is flexible. Because I work remote/from home, we’ll have plenty of play time. It also means less alone time and/or kennel time for your pup. I don’t have an enclosed yard, but I enjoy taking breaks from work to go for walks. And I promise your pup won’t be ignored. I can crate if needed, but I’d much rather take them for a ride in my car if I have to go anywhere.
