“Abby took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were out of town, she came over for hour long walks each day and sent us lots of fun updates and photos! Thanks Abby :)”

About: Dogs make EVERY day better! Recently I was running a boutique dog daycare, boarding, and training facility in California before moving home to Ohio. Because of my 5 years there, I have immense knowledge and experience surrounding dog behavior, training, and caring for pups of all ages, breeds, sizes, and needs. I am also CPDT certified as a Positive Reinforcement trainer. I truly understand the importance of getting to know each pup individually and how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your dogs in and out of your home. I am working remote part time so I have tons of flexibility! I love being around dogs and am excited to be hands on with pups in my own town! I have a very large yard and patio for pups that visit my home! I also understand that many pups prefer the comfort of their own home and am comfortable and happy to pop in as needed when the pups need care or walks! I am extremely respectful of someone else's space and requirements when it comes to in home care.
“Destany took great care of my fur baby!! I love that she messaged me the night before to confirm and when she was on her way. It was reassuring to know that she hadn’t forgot and my baby would be in good hands! Thank you so much, Destany!!”

“Abby is fabulous! She always greeted/greets Toula, our one year of Golden Retriever, with love. Abby goes beyond her required job. Abby noticed dirt/mud on Toula upon the return of a walk and went to her own car to get towels to wash and dry her. She is engaged in the job at hand and does beyond what is expected. Will use her again and again!!!”
“Hunter was exceptional with our pets! We originally hired him to walk our pup but had also gotten a kitten at the time and he spent extra time with our kitten as well making sure she got some love! I would highly recommend! Was professional, well mannered and incredibly kind to our fur babies ❤️”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs, cats, and both small and large farm animals my entire life, and I’ve been fortunate to work in the veterinary field as a veterinary technician/assistant for over 20 years.

Some of the conditions include caring for diabetics, seizures, kidney disease, liver disease, URis, UTis, hyperthyroidism, ocular issues, skin issues/allergies, foreign body surgeries, fractures, ACL surgeries, obstructions, and poisonings. I love walking and caring for animals weather that mean playing with them or spoon feeding them back to health. Additionally I have also had the privilege of caring for a wide range of animals, from large and small farm animals to dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes—from energetic puppies to loving senior dogs.

“Jenna walked my dog for us after I gave birth to my son. She was conscientious about showing up on time, wearing a mask when she picked up the dog from our door, and quickly confirming her schedule. Most importantly my Australian shepherd was excited to see her, and I was relieved to have good care for him when I needed to focus elsewhere.”

About: I grew up raising several dogs and puppies, I have a little bit of experience training also. I have senior dog experience and also small puppy experience.

“Lauren was awesome. Cooper is a big doggie and just loves everyone. He was super excited but calms down a few minutes after walking. I even got pictures of cooper in the bark park 😁. Her son came with Lauren. Cooper loves kids . He was a little afraid of cooper at first. By the time they left Aaron wasn’t afraid of cooper and cooper treated them like his family. I will use Lauren again.”
