Dog Walking Mulberry

About: Aloha! I want to help you and your family member (dog/pets) feel less stressed about being away from each other! I noticed that every time I used a kennel service for our fur baby, our dog would get so scared, sick, stress shed, nervous/anxiety, she would not eat, different times she caught kennel cough (which meant more vet bills), and our dog was definitely unhappy with the small kennel space surrounded by other upset loud barking pups/dogs/animals! I believe I can help your dog/pet feel loved, safe, comfortable, fed, clean, exercised, washed (optional), fun/waggy tails, like our family when you are away. My name is Michelle. I love animals! We have a small dog, bunny and fish! I used to volunteer at SPCA and Paw-sitive (Non profit, walk, groom, and feed stray dogs until they got adopted). I have housesit/housesat and dogsit/catsit/ bird and turtles-sat for friends and was suggested to extend my love on ROVER! (Side note: My husband goes to work during the day.I recently changed our schedule to homeschooling my 3 yr old. My 2 kids are used to me caring, playing, and walking other dogs. They loves animals as well. We all have experience caring for animals, see pictures). I have went out of the way to teach , show and guide my children to be gentle, slow approaching/no sudden movements, no chasing, be responsible, ask before petting, and to be aware around animals. I want to help other families feel comfortable and confident to leave their pet with me. We have our Covid shots and boosters. I am home everyday (except 3-4hours out of the house now and then for groceries , gym, or friends farm, or kids play dates). I keep my distance from crowds, we sanitize, and wash our hands frequently. I clean the house and wipe everything all the time. We got a new Hoover carpet wash, and our dog is up to date with shots! Your pet is safe and will be treated like royalty, pampered, loved like our pup/family! I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too, if you like. Your dog/cat/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I have owned dogs most my life (had my first pup with the responsibilities at 6 years old, and owned/fostered animals on and off for about 34 years) …cared for puppies, adults and senior dogs such as pit bulls, Pekingese, Shih Tzu , mini pincher Dobermans ,then fostered a German Shepard, a black pup Labradors, also taken cared of a Golden Retrievers, a Pitbull, poodles, bulldogs, Soft- wheat Terriers, birds, hamsters, turtles, a class pet guinea pig, and cared for friends cats too (see photos). (Yes, I have a small dog but our house is big enough to have another dog/cat/pet around . I can gate, and keep my dog separate if need) Your pet will be taken out for a run or walk at least 4x a day (usually 4-9 times with pictures)! Schedule: I take your/our dog out first thing in the morning, break, lunch, then around 3-4pm, around/after dinner time, and right before bedtime too ( update you with photos)! I will spend time with your dog/cat/pet. I will sit with, read to, massage, clean, comb, feed and pet (constantly check on, if they don’t want to be disturbed)! Even while I read to my kids, homeschool or while we watch tv at night. And my dog will be gated, separated, away from your dog/pet when we are out and when requested. I left my 911 emergency call taking position to be a stay at home mother. I would love to care for, walk, play, cuddle with your dog and take your dog to the park with us too ! *** ONLY DOGS UNDER 35lbs at this time. Thank you*** I have a lot of room, space, toys, pillows, blankets for your pup/dog/cat/pet (separated away from our dog), open concept spacious house, and animal-friendly neighborhood. I live in a cul-de-sac with extremely caring sweet neighbors that know me/us. Several families around us have animals of their own and I know most dogs have been trained or gone thru training as well as ours. I will text or email you pictures and FaceTime your dog/pet too if you like. Your dog/pet is unique and special to you so I will do my best to help. I will keep your dog/pet on a leash every time we go outside, so they don't go missing or let other dogs bother them ***Off leash free to run roam inside the house ***! Our dog is up to date with all shots, vet visits, and takes medication for tick/flee, heart worms. We give our dog a shower once every other week and when she gets muddy. I can help clean your dog/pet too, let us know!

About: I am a full time pharmacist with a unique overnight schedule. I love all animals so I am looking for some jobs on the side caring for animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, hamsters, chinchillas and parakeets. I work third shift 7 days on and 7 days off so I have a very flexible schedule to care for your pets. I can make any schedule work. I have a non social bulldog so I am able to care for a cat or dog in your own home and could care for a smaller caged animal in my own.

I provide patient, dedicated, and specialized pet care tailored to your animal's unique personality and needs.

My home features a fully fenced-in yard situated on a beautiful two-acre property, providing the perfect secure setup for play, exploration, and extra-long, peaceful walks on a leash.

About: I have experience with a variety of animals from dogs and cats to horses, birds, and reptiles. These have been my own pets or others' pets. I've helped with puppy care and senior dog care.

“Melanie was so friendly and really went above and beyond. Even in this brutally cold weather! I would call on her again when the opportunity arises. Thanks, Melanie!”

About: I grew up with pets and have had at least 1 dog of my own since I moved out of my parents. Our 3 dogs are our family, they sleep in bed with us and go everywhere they can. In high school I used to house sit for my aunt taking care of her 2 dogs and 2 cats. We also now foster through Louie’s Legacy to help dogs find their furever homes. With a lot of free time at the moment I have been fully committed to our dogs and our dogs in our foster care. Fostering through Louie’s legacy to give dogs the temporary safe place till they find their furever home. With 2 current fosters at home I am only looking for dog walking, drop ins and overnights at your house. Having a fully fenced in backyard as well as walking trails throughout our neighborhood to allow dogs to get all their energy out. Usually there are crates available so all dogs have a special spot they can go to decompress.

About: Ive been pet sitting since I was 12 years old and have only gained experience and skills since then. Ive been boarding, training, walking, and feeding animals of all sorts for years. I’m a very flexible person. If your baby needs multiple walks, a strict schedule, or just a lot of affection I’m enthusiastic to fill their needs. I have experience with all ages, blind, deaf, and other needs, various breeds, and sizes. I also have experience with emergency medical care and administering medications. My work history also includes handling and caring for multiple dogs at once. In addition to that, I also have experience working with animals that cannot be around other dogs or animals and know how safely care for them. Safety, health, and happiness of the animals is my priority in that order. I can make my own schedule so I have open availability. Evenings, weekends, or holidays. None are a conflict. I keep my calendar up to date. I have two fenced in dog parks on my property. I'm minutes away from multiple parks with trails. I make sure I follow the given schedule but at the same time offer new and stimulating experiences

I also have fostered dogs and help them get adopted. I am currently between jobs right now, so my schedule is open and flexible right now. I can provide overnight care in your home or drop-ins through out the week. Building trust with the animals in my care is super important. I care for each animal like they were my own. I have a calm demeanor, which I think animals pick up on.

About: I am a huge animal lover! I have 10+ years of paid experience pet-sitting, house-sitting, and babysitting! I have been a regular sitter for all types of breeds, ages, and behaviors. I have regular experience with pit bulls, chihuahuas, Great Pyrenees, Great Danes, puppies & seniors! I have recently moved to Cincinnati and looking to build a new client base!

About: I grew up with dogs and cats, and have been a longtime animal sitter for friends and family ❤️ I LOVE walking and couch cuddles equally 🐶🐈 I also have experience as a long-term sitter (6 months). I am self-employed, working as a part-time consultant and content creator, so my schedule is flexible and I can usually be available any time between 6:30AM-9:30PM for walks/check-ins/feeding/potty breaks. I am extremely conscientious, and I care deeply about honoring the trust people give me when they ask me to take care of their pet and/or home. I have been trusted to stay in and take care of others’ homes multiple times—I treat others’ homes and pets with the same love and care that I would my own.

About: I worked as a Veterinary Assistant for over 20 years and just recently decided to stay home with my kids full time. Pet sitting has always been something I’ve done on the side for family and friends, but now that I have more time available, I’m very excited to be able to love and care for your fur babies just like they were my own! I am currently available for daily walks and 2 potty breaks per day, and of course PLAY TIME! I also offer drop in services if you do not feel your pet needs a walk or additional exercise. I am available for any and all of your pet care needs, and with 20 yrs of previous veterinary experience, I am also comfortable giving both oral medications and injectables for diabetic patients. I love being around all animals because they provide a great sense of calm and familiarity for me. I always treat a client’s pet just as I would my own and they will receive endless love & attention while in my care. I do work part time during the week and have two young boys at home- while we are a very active family, I can usually carve out time even on work days for drop in visits or walks.

About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals! I’ve handled about every type of dog and cat. I can handle any personality of animal, from a lazy homebody that just wants to sleep all day, or ones that tend to be more on the edge and aggressive, or even the silly/energetic ones that just need your attention at all times! I'm currently working part time mainly on weekends (Friday-Sunday) and sometimes early mornings on Mondays and Wednesdays. My shifts are usually only 3 hours long. In your home I'll make sure your pet is properly crated (or not). I will make sure they go to the restroom when they need to or just take them outside for periods of time to hangout and have some fun. I'll feed them the time as told.

About: I have worked at a doggy daycare as well as fostered and volunteered at the shelter. I also have raised dogs my whole life and have three of my own. I have dealt with administering medicine at the doggy daycare and taking care of dogs with needed special care.I also have one cat who I adore!! Fostering is one of my passions in cincinnati when there are animals in need! I work one job only two days a week as well as I am a senior in highschool looking to make money for college as I am about to graduate. I provide a safe care person for dogs in their home as well as when going on a walk I am there for whatever they need.

About: I am a very passionate, attentive, and empathetic person when it comes to any and all animals! For many years I have taken sole care of both dogs and cats of all different breeds, and am well experienced in all general pet care to include special needs pets. All of the dogs I ever had as a kid were trained as puppies almost solely by myself and my brothers. My mom used to make me read books and do online research about the breed of dog we had, different training techniques, K9 first-aid, and so much more. Being as passionate as I am about animals, those studies were well retained, and while I don't have professional experience, the knowledge gained from doing it on my own with 9 different dogs over my lifetime have graced me with at the very least, an in depth knowledge of all different stages of dog ownership. This knowledge was also accentuated professionally as I worked alongside military police K9 handlers during my time in the Air Force. Not to worry though, I mix structure, routine, and discipline with plenty of tender loving care, and know how to tune my approach to dogs of all temperaments. In regards to puppies: I have experience potty training, leash training, crate training, and what I would call experienced but moderate obedience training skills. I know how to deal with things like food aggression, how to properly establish the "hierarchy" or "pack mentality" and other conditioning behaviors. As well as handling young puppies, I've even assisted a momma in giving birth to a new litter, and taking special care of a brand new litter of 7 pups! So my experience with all dogs truly does begin at birth and goes all the way to end of life care. For the old timers: The couch potatoes in our lives need just as much, and sometimes even more care than their energetic and young counterparts. I have experience with things like giving medication and shots, managing specialty diets, and a number of other age specific needs. I'm very patient and am willing to take the time to get to know your pet and what they need. Every animal has a different personality and needs attention in different ways, and I'm very attentive to that! I will always treat your pet as if they were my own, and will to the best of my ability make sure that your pet is well taken care of at all times. I'm a full-time nomad and side gigs are my primary source of income. Pet care IS my weekly routine. I'm available and more than happy to abide by the normal 9-5 schedule for daytime pet care, but I can also easily adjust to fit any alternate schedule; whether you need overnight pet care, or any other odd schedule constraints met, I am available. I have lived with my own dog in a variety of different conditions. From being on our own in both houses and apartments, to having a full house of dogs and cats. I am well versed in any additional responsibilities and special care based on living situations, and have no trouble go up and down a few flights of stairs for potty breaks/walks, etc.

“Callie was the absolute best with Cinco given her first time meeting him. I love her attention to details, how attentive she was as well as her communication with me. She will definitely be my “go to” in the future. Thank you, Callie!”
