Dog Walking McKinley Avenue Corridor

“First time using a dog walker, and I’m so glad I did. Sam was great and responsive to a last minute request. My dog came back worn out and will likely nap for awhile. Thanks Sam!!!”

“Anna is prompt and reliable! I have an energetic puppy who needs exercise and I feel so relieved knowing she had a fun walk and a chance to go potty while I’m at work. Anna always keeps me updated with pictures and notes from the walk, rain or shine. I know she’s in safe hands!”

About: Hey there! I’m a 22 year-old, incoming medical student at OSU who has absolutely loved dogs my entire life. I have the cutest mini goldendoodle at home (shoutout Cooper) and have taken care of him for five and a half awesome years! I also used to live with a golden retriever puppy for two years during college and adored taking her on walks/looking after her when my roommate was out of town:) I’m currently taking a break before school starts up in August so I will have plenty of time to keep your pets company! I will also continue my services during the school year primarily on weekends and a couple weekdays, depending on my exam schedule. My dog (Cooper) likes the indoors, so I mostly keep him inside. However, I am extremely comfortable with keeping pets company outside if they are fenced in! I also take Cooper on long walks in the mornings and evenings plus a shorter walk in the middle of the day! I would be happy to do the same with your pups or walk your pets according to the schedule you already have in place for them.

About: I've taken care of many kinds of dogs and have always had one in my family home. I've taken care of big and small, old gentle dogs and crazy little puppies. I've had a lab and currently have a pitbull. They've all been very playful so I'm used to and don't minding jumping, barking and licking. I'm working part-time, so I have plenty time to visit, walk or stay with your pets. I'm not picky about the time of dag and can work over the weekends. Since I've had many pets I realise it takes time for some animals to adjust to a new person while others are very loving right away. I'd make sure to take into account your own dogs personality when interacting with them and the rules you keep for them.

“She was so sweet with Kali & took her on such a good walk!! Highly recommend her!!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all of my life anywhere from a German Shepard to a Dachshund. I understand the importance of trusting and depending on those who care for your loved ones (because dogs are a part of the family too). I love long walks around the neighborhood and ensuring each dog is cared for specifically tailored to their needs and owners preference. Would love a dog of my own however living vicariously through my clients and supporting them in their care of their animals is the next best thing! Flexible on the weekends and mornings/evenings during the week. Caring for animals is just as much a stress reliever for me as it is for them and their owners. Can’t wait to help! I am flexible in availability and capacity for the client needs. I can be adaptive contingent on environment, medical and ability considerations of the animal(s).

About: (I go by my nickname Rew) I currently have no pets of my own! Very flexible schedule. I am a detail-oriented carer and have a lot of energy for your special ones. Available for services morning, afternoon, evening, overnight. Open for holiday bookings. I will keep this section updated as things go on (will do my very best!) I care for pets in your home and offer dog walks. I do not board at my own residence. Let me know your particular instructions and I will keep good notes!

About: Hi! My name is Lauren; I am responsible and friendly and can be relied on to walk and take care of pets. I grew up with dogs and cats and have always loved animals. I have over 5 years of experience pet sitting and house sitting. I love to walk and play with pets. I do my best to keep the space clean and keep the pets safe and happy. I do not have pets of my own right now. I look forward to watching your pets! I work full time as a Physical Therapist, so my availability is mornings before work, evenings after work, and weekends. I may be able to stop by during my lunch break depending on where you’re located! I will follow any instructions you give me in order to keep your pet(s) safe while I am watching them! I value building trust with the owner and the pets.

“Jennifer was really assuring through the process of using rover for the first time! She provided a lot of pictures and details and did things I forgot to ask for, like refilling my dog’s water bowl. I felt really comfortable with her walking my dog and am happy knowing he got some extra care and attention!”

McKenzie A.

“Camryn has been amazing for this first 3 weeks. She scheduled a consultation on short notice, and has been great with timing, communication, and most importantly, care of our dog. We’ll be hiring her for a long time!”

About: I have a sweet dog who’s been part of my life for the past 7 years, so I understand how much love, attention, and care our furry companions need. Having my own pet has taught me a lot about responsibility and reading animal behavior, which helps me provide the best care for others too Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I take care of my own dog every day—feeding, walking, playing, and giving lots of love—so I’m already used to planning my time around a pet’s needs. I enjoy spending time with animals, and caring for them fits perfectly into my week. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening check-ins, I’m happy to make pets a priority in my schedule. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or at a client’s, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep their environment clean, give them plenty of attention, and respect their unique personality and needs. In a client’s home, I’m careful to maintain their space just as they left it, keeping everything tidy and treating their home with respect. My goal is to make every pet feel happy and stress-free while their family is away.

“Payton is awesome and my two little pups loved her. She did exactly what they needed (their small and sometimes need a shorter walk and just a little playtime instead). Can’t wait to have her walk them again!”

About: 👋Hi I’m Annie! I have grown up with dogs and currently have a 3.5 year old black lab named Tank. 🐕‍🦺 Tank is a good boy and plays extremely well with other dogs but also is happy sleeping or chewing a bone on his own. This comes as no surprise as he is actually a failed guide dog - failed after getting startled by loud noises! In my wider family, we have a range of dog sizes, personalities, rescues, and breeder dogs…meaning I have a lot of experience with lots of different doggie backgrounds. I am confident in my ability to quickly learn how your dog(s) interact with other dogs, animals, and humans. All dogs have different needs. I will accommodate your personal and pup’s lifestyle preferences, whether that is more active or a more relaxed day. I also strive to keep up with any ongoing training so your pup doesn’t fall behind while you are away 🏠 I work from home full time, so this allows me the flexibility to build my schedule around the attention and enrichment your dog may need. What a typical daycare looks like: - Sniff and playtime with Tank 🤝🐽 - Weather dependent - at least 1 walk, which your dog is welcome to join or not 🐾☀️🚶🏻‍♀️ - A choice of ropes, kongs, squeaky, plush, and ball toys to play with 🎾🪢🧸 - A variety of treats (as allowed) including probiotics, dental chews, nubz, milk bone, and frozen peanut butter treats / kongs 🦴🥜 - For relaxed pups, they are welcome to chill out on the furniture or dog beds around the house or next to me while I work 💤🛋️ - Weekend daycare will include a trip to the dog park weather & owner permitting Please read further below about schedule and other info! I am in a permanent work from home role with flexible hours. I will do my best to fit around you / your pet’s schedule but of course if something clashes, this will be outlined prior to booking :) Currently, I typically cafe for your pets in my own home. I strive to make your pets feel most normal while you are away and follow any rules you have set. If your dog is allowed on the couch, fine by me. If not, that is great as well. I will work closely with you to ensure I understand what is best for the dog and how to provide care that is as seamless as possible. I will provide detailed notes (or texts if preferred) of my time spent with your furry loved one and of course pictures galore (if requested).
