Dog Walking Downtown

“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 grew up in a small, rural, community in Vermont. The common practice was to just have the neighborhood kids do everything: alter serving at the local church, babysitting the kids, and petsitting when people went out of town. In my neighborhood, spread out over fields and forests, I became the default petsitter. I've been watching dogs and cats since middle-school and have enjoyed spending time with pets because my parents wouldn't let us adopt a cat until I was in high school. Now, as an adult I'm always the go-to friend for petsitting when people go out of town. I'm looking forward to meeting your pet!! I'm a graduate student writing her dissertation. My time is super flexible (available every day of the week, early morning until early evening) and I'm looking to visit pets to lower my blood pressure, provide structure to my life, and make your life easier in the process. I'm also a runner, so I see it as a fun challenge to make pet stops part of my daily exercise routine. As a graduate student I am really detail oriented and am good at following directions, including those you leave about proper care for your pet and your home.

“Molly was AMAZING! She stepped right in when I contacted her last minute with short notice for help to have someone walk my pup. Biscuit immediately connected with her because of her gentle and kind spirit. I definitely recommend booking Molly!!”

About: Animals are my entire life, and also my eventual career! Over 10 years ago I started walking my neighbors dogs and fell in love with animal care. Since then, I have gained a ton of experience by working with all sorts of animals in my high school animal labs and farms, working in a small animal vet clinic, volunteering at shelters and ICUs, pet sitting for family friends, knowledge through my animal science courses, and much more. I love all types of animals, and I truly hope to provide the best of service to your family pets! I am currently a college student, but I have a lot of free time throughout the week and the weekends to provide my services. My best availability is from Fri-Sun, however I can still fit quality care throughout most of the week Every time I let your pet go outside, I always make sure to have them on a leash to keep control of them for everyone’s safety. In fenced in areas, I am always outside with them to supervise so they have someone to play with and make sure they are keeping out of trouble. I am very flexible in pet care and will do whatever it takes to cater to their needs

About: Hi! I’m an OSU nursing student who loves animals. I have my own cat but i’ve grown up around dogs my whole life. I can handle any size of dog — including great danes! I would love to meet your pet 😊 I am new to the app — I would love to meet up and earn your trust before taking care of your fur baby! I only have classes 3 days a week, so I am available thursday-sunday all day! I have some availability early mornings and nights on monday-wednesday. I always make sure pets are in a safe and comfortable environment and follow any instructions provided by their owner. I’m happy to stick to their normal feeding, walking, and bathroom routines and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I’ll also keep owners updated while their pet is in my care.

About: Hi! My name is Sabrina and I’m a second year optometry student at The Ohio State University! My first job at 13 was taking care of my next door neighbor’s dog. She loved me so much that she referred me to a few other people within the neighborhood. They relied on me to walk, feed, give medications, among other responsibilities. I never had the opportunity to have my own furry friend, so I loved dedicating my time to helping others with theirs :) I’m a second year optometry student looking for an easy and fun way to make some extra money! My schedule for school keeps me pretty busy, but I do have time to fit in some pet sitting jobs! I love pets and love being active, so walking dogs definitely is within my ballpark (no pun intended). If your pet loves to have someone keeping them company I’m the same way!

“JoVonna has been caring for my pup for several months now and she ALWAYS exceeds expectations. She is so loved by my dog, and by me! For her caring nature, attentiveness, professionalism, etc. JoVonna is just amazing.”

About: Growing up surrounded by canine companions has been a cornerstone of my life. My experiences span across a diverse array of breeds, ranging from the majestic Huskies and German Shepherds to the adorable Chihuahuas, Pitbulls, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Danes, Yorkies, and more. My expertise extends beyond just appreciation; I've actively participated in the training of dogs, helping them master basic commands with patience and care. In addition to my broad background, I bring a compassionate touch to every furry friend I encounter, treating each dog as if they were my own. My commitment to their well-being goes beyond the ordinary – having personally cared for a dog coping with epilepsy, I am well-versed in administering medications and providing specialized attention. Whether it's overnight care, invigorating walks, or engaging playtime, I'm here to cater to your pet's every need. I'm even open to taking your beloved fur baby to the dog park for some extra excitement. Thank you for considering me as the potential new best friend for your cherished canine companion! I currently don't have any pets but I am the go-to petsitter for all my friends and neighbors. From cats with dog personalities to dogs with cat personalities I care for them all. I live in an apartment downtown but I love having dogs here, I love to take them on walks along the river nearby and have my own bowls and blankets that get cleaned every time a new dog comes over. When in your home I like to learn their routine and try to keep them on their normal schedule.

“Emma did a wonderful job with my older but very strong pittie Bella. She paid great attention to detail and Bella was very happy and well cared for when i got home. I will absolutely use her again”

“Autumn was great with my elderly and shy doggy! She made her so comfortable to the point that’s her new friend only after a couple visits (Lucy is super shy). Autumn was great with communication and just all around a nice and helpful person. Thank you so much!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family fostered and cared for cats, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care and behavior. Professionally, I’ve worked in a dog daycare, pet store, and boarding environment, and have spent the past two years working at an animal shelter. Through these roles, I’ve gained hands on experience caring for cats, dogs, reptiles, and small mammals. I am comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and have experience working with canines who have behavioral challenges such as stranger danger, reactivity, and resource guarding. I am trained in reading canine body language and adjusting my approach to help pets feel safe and comfortable. Cats are also a particular passion of mine. In addition to caring for social cats, I have experience socializing feral and semi-feral cats and working with shy or nervous kitties who need extra patience and understanding. I am also comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and caring for multi-pet households. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work at an animal shelter Wednesday through Saturday. Because of this, I am primarily available Sundays through Tuesdays for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting services. I may have drop in availability the other days after 7 pm. I do my best to keep my availability up to date and will always communicate clearly about scheduling so you know exactly what to expect. My goal is to keep your pets as comfortable as possible by maintaining their normal routine while you’re away. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, so I tailor my care to each individual animal. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, enrichment activities, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and respectful presence nearby, I am happy to meet them where they are. I prioritize safety, patience, and positive interactions, especially with nervous or shy pets. Communication is extremely important to me. During visits, I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give to every pet. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I make it a priority to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I’m dependable and organized, and I take commitments seriously. I’ll make sure your pet’s care is a priority and that they receive the time and attention they deserve. I know pets are most comfortable when their routine stays consistent, so I’ll take the time to learn their preferences, habits, and any special instructions before you leave. I’m also happy to send regular photo and text updates so you know how your pet is doing

“Awesome!!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life. Dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, turtles, fish, etc! I currently have two cats — Bodhi and Mani — who I love more than words. (Don’t worry, they have an automatic pet feeder, water fountain, and interactive camera that I can talk to them through when I’m on house sitting stays!) I have experience with senior cats and how to administer medication to them to balance thyroid levels, manage diabetes, chemo, etc. I had a 16-year-old cat recently pass from Stage 4 Chronic Kidney Disorder, so I know how important hydration is for our feline friends. Especially of the male variety. **I respectfully ask that you do not ask me to accept payment off the app during our first Meet & Greet. I provide M&Gs free-of-cost to new clients. It sucks (and is a waste of time/money) when a potential client decides not go with me because I won’t “just take Venmo”. It’s important for me to establish a relationship with a family first through the app, for my own safety and guarantee of payment. Plus, Rover provides insurance for both parties using the fees they incur. Please keep this in mind if insurance is an issue for you. Thanks!! :)** I recently quit my 9-5 job to focus on pet sitting full time. I have no human children, so my time is very flexible! I currently don’t accept boarding requests. But when I’m in a clients home.. I am respectful of their belongings, which rooms are needed for access during each stay, security cameras/systems, bathrooms/showers, food (I bring my own unless you tell me to help myself, then I might eat your kids’ mac n cheese 😃), pet gates, incoming mail, outgoing trash, door and garage codes, etc.

“Timely and professional. Thank you.”

“In addition to being a reliable and communicative walker, Jessica even stayed with Myles today while he was sick. Made me feel so much better to know he was well taken care of and closely monitored!”

About: I have taken care of a Chihuahua and a golden retriever for years. the Chihuahua for 4 years and the golden retriever for 3 years. I am available for pet services in mix with my school schedule since I am a full time college student. I have free time usually in the evenings and would love to spend it with lovely fur babies. I prefer taking care of pets In the owners home, I live on campus housing so while there is quite a lot of opportunity for outside space and time I do not have a fenced off area. in the owners home I stick to their schedule if provided for feedings, bathroom breaks, etc. My space is smoke-free.

About: I have two dogs of my own, have fostered several dogs before, and love interacting with dogs and cats! Friends are able to rely on me to check in on their pets, walk them, feed them, and I keep the pet parents updated on their pets. I work 3 days a week and my off days change each week. My off days are pretty open and I can be flexible with them! I do live in an apartment with my two dogs, so I cannot offer in home pet care. However I can check in on your pets, spend time with them, feed them etc
