Dog Walkers in Madeira, OH

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover—and I have to admit, the feeling is usually mutual. Animals seem to feel comfortable around me, and I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by them. I’ve cared for just about every pet you can imagine—dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, hamsters, fish, and yes… even rats (they’re way more lovable than most people think!). With years of hands-on experience, I know how to read animals’ needs, keep them comfortable, and of course, give them plenty of love and attention. Whether it’s a playful pup who needs exercise or a shy cat who just wants a calm, patient presence, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and a little spoiled while you’re away. I treat every animal like they’re my own—because that’s how it should be. I typically work afternoons and evenings (3 PM – 10 PM), which means I have availability most mornings and late evenings. I’m happy to help with walks, check-ins, or overnight care outside of those hours. I’m flexible on my days off and will always prioritize your pet’s care and routine. I create a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and attention, along with a cozy space to rest. In a client’s home, I’m always respectful of their routines and preferences—keeping their pet’s schedule consistent to help reduce stress. Whether it’s walks, feeding, play, or quiet companionship, I care for every pet like they’re my own.

“I can’t say enough good things about Natalia! She’s been walking my puppy Sasha each week for over a month now. She’s always on time, super flexible, available last minute, and sends the best updates with pictures and a detailed description of how the the walks went. I completely trust her with my puppy’s care and being a new dog mom it is somewhat scary to leave your pup with anyone. She even goes the extra mile and has done things past the 30 minute time frame like make sure to fill her Kong treat before putting her back in the crate or even taken her for a longer walk than required if she feels necessary. Natalia makes my life so much easier and Sasha loves her too!”

“Very accommodating when I needed to cancel day of because one of my dogs started to get sick the night before. Also went above and beyond to come over early before I needed to get to work to show me how a gentle-lead works and see how my dog would react to having it on.”

“Susan is an excellent walker! She clearly loves dogs and takes the time to build a relationship with them. She is thorough - sends updates and pictures. I highly recommend her services!”

About: Hi! I’m Liz, a lifelong animal lover with over 30 years of pet-sitting experience. Caring for pets is more than just a job for me—it’s a passion. While I don’t have my own furry companions at the moment, that allows me to give my full love and attention to the wonderful pets I look after. As a longtime dog and cat owner, I understand the unique personalities and needs of all kinds of pets—including those that require a little extra patience and care. I take pride in creating a comfortable, loving environment for every animal in my care. Don’t be surprised if you catch me on the street asking to say hello to your pup—I adore them all! In my free time, I love immersing myself in nature through hiking, unwinding with a great show, and experiencing the energy of live concerts. I also enjoy the challenge of a good game of Scrabble and continuously expanding my knowledge of animal behavior. Puppies: Potty/house training, crate training, leash training, separation anxiety. Seniors: Medication administration, separation anxiety. I am currently not working and able to devote all my time to your fur baby. I recently lost my dog, a Shiba Inu named Stevie Nicks, after nine years and I am missing my dog terribly but, have found joy in caring for other people’s pets. -No fenced yard. Dog must be able to potty on a leash -No crate. If your dog requires a crate for overnight stays, one will need to be provided by the pet owners. -No children in my home -No other pets are in my home. Your fur baby will be spoiled rotten.

“Bill was punctual, efficient and a natural with our pups! He followed directions well although he was quite intuitive and didn't seem to need much to begin with. We'll definitely hire him again!”

“Parker was so good with Zeus! She is a great communicator and very thorough. I wasn’t left wondering how he was doing. I would 100% recommend Parker to my friends!”

“Anna is a true pet lover and will treat your pet as her own. She watched my dog Xavier and they become instant friends. She is very responsible and dedicates time and attention to giving your pet the care he or she needs. I would highly recommend her!”

“Daniel was amazing! We needed someone who has a lot of experience and could confidently care for multiple 40-50 lb dogs with various medical and anxiety/behavioral needs. Daniel was impressive! He took a good amount of time to meet with us and learn our dogs habits, personalities and quirks, and the commands we use with them. He had no issues walking our 3 dogs together, acknowledging them and giving them treats along the way. The dogs were very comfortable with Daniel, happy with thier walk, and responded well to his commands. My rescue dog who is wary of strangers even gave him kisses after their walk. On the 2nd walk, the dogs got very barky and excited when Daniel arrived and he was calm and confident and got them settled down and leashed with ease. We've had many pet sitters over the years and Daniel shines above all of them. His communication skills are excellent, he actively listens, very observant, understands the dogs, and overall seems like a natural who "knows what to do" to provide excellent care of our pets.”

“Lindsay is the definition of a professional. Attentive, communicative, treats our pup as her own. She’s the best and quite frankly, we won’t use anyone else. She’s the best!”

“I cannot recommend Sydney highly enough as a pet sitter. She has a natural gift with animals and a deep understanding of their unique needs. Sydney is the proud owner of two dogs—one with anxiety and the other a fearful rescue—and she handles both with incredible patience, compassion, and skill. Her ability to create a calm, safe environment for them speaks volumes about her dedication and empathy. Beyond caring for her own pets, Sydney has frequently helped friends with their dogs, always going above and beyond to ensure they feel loved and secure. She has also fostered a dog, providing a nurturing temporary home, has volunteered with local rescues, taking dogs out for the day to give them a break from the shelter environment. Sydney’s experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals make her an outstanding choice for anyone looking for a trustworthy and capable pet sitter. Your pets will be in the best hands with her!”

“Anna is mature beyond her age and has grown up around high maintenance dogs. She understands behavioral issues with dogs and knows how to read their body language. She is responsible and thinks ahead. She is always well prepared.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I always had a dog or two growing up! I love taking care of pets and I always treat them like family. I understand it’s a big responsibility having your pets stay with a sitter and I do my best to treat them as my own. I will be your pets bestie while you’re away :). My schedule is flexible. So the times can vary based on my work schedule. I have plenty of room for dogs in my home to roam free and stay safe. I also have an area for crates. I have a large house so it’s easy to accommodate small and large pets. I don’t have a fenced in yard. But my private yard has plenty of space for any dog to use. I also have sidewalks throughout my neighborhood to walk the pets.

About: I’ve had animals my whole lives and have taken care of two animals independently for 3 years. I live taking care of all animals and is willing to work around any problems. I’m working part time so I’m always available and can do any time. I’m able to commute to wherever is needed and can stay with your animals for however long you want! I’ve taken care of many different animals at different stages in life so nothing scares me and I can work with anything that is needed.

“Jessica has watched, cared for and loved my dog Sirius Black for over 2 years. She loves and cuddles him, treats him like her own pet. Sirius can go a a or without wanting to eat, but I’ve seen Jessica sit on the floor and hand feed him. Jessica doesn’t just walk him she takes him to the park so he can run feel and play ball with him. Jessica loves my dog as much as I do. She would be great for Rover! Jessica has always had pets. Sharon”

About: I was raised with bunnies, fish, hamsters, dogs, cats and a turtle, along with anything I found outside that looked like it needed a home.

“I highly recommend Jenna as a dog walker. She has been walking and taking care of my dog for a year and I couldn’t be happier. Jenna is reliable, friendly, and clearly loves dogs. My dog always comes back happy and well-exercised. I completely trust her and appreciate the peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands.”
