Dog Walkers in Garden, OH

About: Hi! Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From high-energy puppies to slow-paced seniors, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities — each one with their own quirks and needs. Whether your pup needs daily walks, playtime in the yard, belly rubs, medication, or a consistent routine while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I’m confident, calm, and attentive — and I always treat pets like they’re my own. I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog behind, so I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, an overnight stay, or a week of care, I’m here to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. Let’s make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and at home — even when you’re not. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets — whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Because I’m not tied to a full-time job, I’m able to adjust my availability based on each pet’s needs. I make sure to build my day around their routines, so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for — just like they would with you. Whether it’s one-on-one playtime, regular feeding schedules, or keeping up with medications, I take the time to make sure everything runs smoothly. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment that feels familiar and comforting. In your home: I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding and walk times to their favorite spots to nap. I keep everything clean, secure, and consistent, so your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. I’m happy to water plants, bring in mail, and keep you updated with regular photos and messages. In my home: I offer a pet-safe, cozy space where your dog (or cat, depending on needs) will get one-on-one attention and feel like part of the family. I maintain a clean environment with plenty of play, rest, and cuddle time. If your pet has special needs or routines, I’m happy to accommodate them — from crate training to medication schedules. No matter where the care happens, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, affection, and full attention to their emotional and physical well-being.

About: I’ve had all kinds of animals in my house since I was a child and love to take care of my favorite, dogs of course!

About: I grew up with pets and have never lived without them. I pet sat when I was younger and have since done it occasionally for friends and family. I just moved to the Athens area and am looking for some supplemental work. I am available for house sitting as well. I take work seriously and am very hard working and detailed oriented. I live in Athens from the end of October through the start of May. I am available throughout the week and weekends. I am not a student here anymore so classes and partying do not take up any of my time. I have 2 indoor cats and a bearded dragon. One of our cats requires some special attention with medicine and over grooming monitoring. Whatever needs your pets have I will work hard to meet them! As far as house sitting goes I am also readily available. If your house needs anything fixed or done I have a number of skills to help you out! I do renovations and all kinds of work on the house I am living in so as part of the house sitting deal I can make something like that work.
