Dog Walking in Massillon

“Alicia did an amazing job walking our dogs almost daily. She gave them lots of attention and made sure they were tired out. She went out of her way to accommodate any special times or needs. I would highly recommend Alicia to anyone needing a dog walker. She’s great! Michele”

“First time using Rover and couldn’t be more pleased. Sidnee was prompt with responses and I will be using again. Provided pictures of walk and activity. Would recommend!!!”

About: With a lifetime of caring for dogs, from tiny to extra large, I treat every pup like my own baby. My I have lots of experience with administering medications, gentle senior care, understanding the attention a blind pup needs, and managing other extra needs. Your furry family will receive devoted, personalized attention. My flexible, work-from-home schedule allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. This means consistent presence, frequent potty breaks, and ample playtime, ensuring your furry family receives devoted attention throughout the day. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is ensuring their comfort and well-being within their familiar surroundings. I adhere strictly to established routines, including crating as instructed and maintaining regular walking schedules. I am skilled in administering medications precisely as prescribed. Beyond routine, I engage actively with your pets through play and enrichment, ensuring they feel comfortable and happy. My goal is to minimize stress and maintain their well-being while you're away.

“Darla did a great job with my young dog. He had never been cared for by anyone but me, so I was anxious. Darla did a great job with him. When I returned home at the end of the day, he was calm and you could tell he had a good day. I was thankful Darla was able to care for him and he seemed to have had a good experience.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. Clients, friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their animals for over 10 years. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages and a background in pet supplies, nutrition, and food. I can administer medication, go on walks, stay in your home, pop in for a visit while you’re away, and give your pet the best care possible. Watching animals is my full time job so you can rest easy knowing that I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. I have open availability Monday-Sunday and I’m very flexible. I can stay at your home and keep your pet safe by insuring no foreign objects are eaten, medication and food is given in a timely manner, potty breaks are frequent, and walks are on a leash. If your pet is between 1-15 pounds and needs to take a car ride I can provide a car seat to ensure safety.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was old enough to drive. I grew up with a house full of animals and have rescued several animals. I work evenings (two days from home, two days on-site in Akron) and have flexible days to allow for daytime walks or drop-ins and overnight stays. I do my best to communicate with the client to form a plan to best suit every pet and ensure the situation is as low-stress and high-fun for all involved!

About: Hello! My name is Macey. I am very excited to meet & care for your animals! I have been an animal lover ever since I was little. I volunteer at animal shelters in my free time and I have fostered multiple puppies before. I am very well trained with dogs and cats of all sizes. I do have a 3-year old yellow lab and 1 year old silver lab. They are both very friendly and socialized with other dogs. I have a nice fenced in yard for your dog to run and play in! I'm used to walking dogs that are strong and pull a lot so that would not be a problem at all. I'm very to excited to meet & care for your pets!

About: I have had a special companion by my side since I was 5 years old. I cannot imagine living life without a dog by my side. I just left my job of 23 years at Aultman Hospital to pursue what makes me happy inside, and that is working with animals. I am currently enrolled in a holistic canine massage therapy course and am learning techniques to help dogs with injuries, arthritis and joint pain. I will treat your pets like I would treat my own and respect your privacy and property while caring for your fur babies. Please email me with any questions you may have. Thanks so much for visiting my profile. I am currently available to watch your pups full time in my Perry Township home. Please message me with any questions you may have. Thank you! I have a boxer named Buefferd, I adopted him from the dog pound in 2015. We jokingly call him King Tut in our house because he rules the roost in our home. Buefferd is super spoiled and enjoys his day's leisure. :) ***UPDATE*** Buefferd recently passed away at the end of August 2024. We are dearly missing his presence. I can now watch your pets for overnight stays at my home in Perry township. We have a doggie door with a small fenced-in area if your pet is used to this accomodation. If not, I will gladly chaperone your pet on a leash in our large back yard.

About: I love dogs and cats and have cared for them in my house my whole life. Hopefully I can help care for your furry family:) I had to take a break from Rover due to being in school but I am back and ready to take new friends. I am taking drop in visits that will include walks, if desired, and just walk visits at this time! I love taking care of Rover pups and am so excited to be able to help out again!

I can crate if needed and desired keep a close eye on your fur baby. I love to take dogs on walks and runs if desired! ! I love accommodating to every pets individual needs in order to take best care of them.

About: As a dog and cat owner, I understand the time, attention, and care that pets deserve as members of the family. I’ve completed a puppy training course with my own dog and have gained valuable experience caring for him as he’s grown older, including administering medications and managing his evolving needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve also looked after other people’s pets, providing everything from daily check-ins to overnight stays. My experience ensures dependable, compassionate care for every pet I meet. As a recent college graduate, I have plenty of time to work around your schedule as I take some time off and continue my job search! I am a very responsible and thorough person that can be trusted to keep both your pets and home safe. I can provide frequent updates to ensure peace of mind!

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of breed since I was 15. I have experience with all sizes and ages and have no issues with large breeds, senior, or medically special pets. Family and friends have relied on me to watch and groom their pets. I believe every pet should have a voice, no matter what. If your dog has anxiety or trouble with trust, I will patiently work with them to ease any tensions. I am CPR and first aid certified for pets. I am also trained in giving intramuscular medical administrations. I make it my top priority to insure that your pets needs are met. You can rest assured that your furry loved ones are in good hands. Pet care is currently my full time job, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets whether that’s cuddling, playing, or going on walks! Your pet will enjoy all of the enrichment that I am able to provide, whether it’s playing with toys at home or driving them to the nearest trail/dog park to walk and play. I provide love, patience and quality care! I offer daily updates per your requests!

“Very pleasant and reliable!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, so I’m no stranger to the amazing world of owning pets. I have experienced everything from training pups to senior care & all the good times in between! Additionally, I have been pet sitting all kinds of animals since I was 13 years old (roughly 9 years of experience)! Additionally, I do a series called “tails on trails” when I hike & take pictures of dogs I see on the trail :) I just graduated from KSU with my degree in environmental studies, looking to spend some time with pups while making some extra cash! I just graduated from KSU and I am in between jobs, finding any chance to make money I can. This gives me more than enough time to play, walk, and care for your furry friend! Currently, I am available to work all day! When pet-sitting I follow what the owner wants for their pet, I always keep the animal close & in sight. I try to get the animal involved in some type of enrichment activity (i.e. walks, brushing, teaching tricks, leash training, or playing with toys) to get their brain & body moving for the day!

About: I'm a very reliable, caring, and responsible dog lover! I have been pet sitting for friends and family for around 12 years (big and little dogs, high anxiety, nervous dogs, dogs with medical needs, dietary needs). I don’t own any animals currently and would take care of your pet like my own. I enjoy going on walks, going to dog parks, playing fetch, tug, playing with mind/strategy toys, and giving healthy treats to help train a certain trick or correct a behavior. I enjoy playing one on one with dogs, or several dogs at once. I look forward to working with you to accommodate any requests to make you and your pet/s comfortable. Dogs are part of a family and I hope you chose me to be part of their lives! I currently set my own work schedule, so I'm very flexible with what you and your pets needs are! I will follow your instructions so your pet is comfortable with their regular process of how they do things. I'm looking forward to working with you and hanging out with your lovely pets!! I am able to follow any instructions needed for your pets. I want them to be comfortable in their regular routine, especially with a new person taking care of them! Their comfort and the owners comfort are very important to me.

About: I am a very big animal lover, I have taken care of pets almost my entire life. I will always love and treat them as they are my own! I have worked in a Veterinary Clinic as a Kennel Attendant with all animals, of all ages. Also administered medication! I have tons of free time - open to same day scheduling. I could provide excellent care, whether it’s a simple walk or check in - to house sitting while you’re on vacation! Currently offering services that are in the clients or my home home, I would stick to the schedule they keep their furbabies on and treat them like my own! Making sure they are safe!

About: Hi there! We’re Nicole and Chandler — a dog-loving couple based right here in town, and we’d be honored to spend some time with your pup. We’re getting married this May (yay!) and as we plan our big day, we’ve found ourselves with some extra time and flexibility in our schedules. We both work remotely, so whether it’s a midday walk, an evening check-in, or just some playtime in the yard, we’re happy to make it work. We’ve both grown up around dogs our whole lives — everything from goofy Golden Retrievers to high-energy Border Collies and gentle seniors who just wanted a snuggle buddy. Currently, we’re proud parents to Apollo, our sweet and soulful Rottweiler, who thinks he’s a 100-lb lapdog. He’s incredibly social and LOVES making new four-legged friends (seriously, his tail starts wagging the second he sees another dog). We know how important it is to trust the people taking care of your pet — they’re family, after all. So we make sure to treat every dog like they’re our own. We love learning each pup’s unique quirks, whether that’s a special walking route, a favorite treat, or that one toy they can’t sleep without. We’re the kind of people who keep dog treats in every jacket pocket, just in case. Whether you need someone to stop by and let your pup out for a quick potty break or take them on a longer walk to burn off some energy, we’re here for you. We’re reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to get to know your dog’s personality. Feel free to reach out — we’d love to meet you (and your furry friend)! We both work remotely so we are very flexible! We also love to get our steps in. We’re early birds too and love getting up early to get our day started. I always try to care for pets however they are cared for at home! I love to go on walks and cuddle up with them at night.

About: I grew up taking care of all types of animals! I’m knowledgeable in animal behavior and I am constantly learning more. I have basic animal training skills and I'm very comfortable around animals of all sizes and ages. I am also comfortable preforming basic grooming tasks such as brushing, clipping nails, baths and administering medicine. Doggy playtime is one of my favorite things to do and I will make sure they will get the exercise they need. I have an 2 dogs and cat of my own and I'll treat your animals just like mine! I currently work full-time from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am very active and I am happy to keep your pets active, too! I have a fenced in yard and two very friendly dogs who love extra company. We go for at least one walk a day. I am able to crate them if needed.

About: I have takin care of dogs since I was 11 have watched neighbors and friends dogs when they have need me for check ins and trips I am currently working part time looking for some extra things to do to stay busy while my kiddos are in school I enjoys animals I can easily crate your dog if needed and have a fenced in back yard as well I don’t have any dogs at this time

About: Being a pet owner and pup-sitter has been such a special part of my life for as long as I can remember. Providing safe and attentive care to the individual needs of an animal is such an important part in building trust and a good relationship. I have many years of experience caring for different breeds from everyday necessities like walking, feeding, and bathing/basic grooming. I have even cared for ducks, rabbits, birds, and am well versed on turtle/tortoise care as we have some of our own at home! Patience, energy, and an enthusiastic attitude are all things you can count on me bringing to your furry loved one! I am currently a stay-at-home mother to 4 wonderful littles, so my availability is pretty easy to work with. During the late mornings/afternoons are best but evenings can also be doable! However you prefer your furry friends time spent with me is how we do it! I've always enjoyed walking and playing to help release energy and provide company, but if your pet's preference is more on the chill side I'm always down to just hang out too! I can provide bathing and basic grooming needs as well so you can come home to a fresh and clean buddy to snuggle with!
