Dog Walking Newtown

“Jessica was amazing. Our older dog Wallace occasionally has mild seizures. Unfortunately he had an episode during Jessica's visit. She picked him up and held him until the seizure subsided.”

About: I’m currently studying to be a vet assistant. Since I was a kid I’ve loved animals and have accumulated lots of knowledge over the years. I’ve been trusted to care for many family pets. I’m very calm and patient, and I’m excited to have the opportunity to care for your pets as well! I’m currently working part-time, early mornings. Mid-week, afternoons and weekends are the best times for me to care for and play with your babies! I live in a very quiet home and a very quiet neighborhood. We can sit and relax while I knit or easily walk down to the nearby observatory, park, or town square.

About: Hi, I’m Elaine! I recently moved to Cincinnati after graduating from Hanover College this May and am really excited to get into animal-care here! I love dogs and am passionate about animal welfare. I have years of experience between my family’s two dogs, my five foster dogs, and from being an active volunteer at my local humane society. Through my time as a humane society volunteer and staff member I have become comfortable with dogs of all energy levels, breeds, and sizes. I am committed to using my experience to ensure the best care possible for your pets! I’d love connect and talk more! I currently work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pets throughout the day! I’m also available on weekends and during evenings Tuesday through Thursday. I love spending my free time with animals and am happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I have experience fostering dogs through animal shelters, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I always make sure pets feel safe and loved while sticking to their normal routines. Whether that means going on walks, playing with toys, or just relaxing together, I tailor my care to each pet. I also love sending pictures and updates so you can feel confident your furry friend is in good hands!

“Thank you for taking such good care of my girls!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds - I have experience in dog-walking, dog and cat sitting and basic care. I treat them as if they’re my own by giving them all the attention they need. They are my top priority when they’re in my care! I am available for dog-walking most late afternoons. I can do 30 or 60 minutes depending on your needs! I have experience with all kinds of leashes. I will create an environment for your pet that will make them feel safe! Whether it’s for a walk or for a visit, they will feel comfortable and at ease.

About: I have always been an animal lover. I began dog sitting and walking about 15 years ago. I enjoy every type of dog (big, small, young, old, etc.) and love spending time with them. I am a runner so if your dog needs some really great exercise, I am happy to run with them or take them for a long walk. I also have plenty of experience with older dogs (including my current dog, Franklin) who might require a slower, more patient walk and care. I am also available to take care of cats, whether outgoing or shy, or in addition to a dog or just a cat/cats by themselves. I have plenty of experience with cats also as I currently own two who I have raised since they were born and are now both 10 years old. I am open to any specific requests/questions you may have pertaining to your dogs and/or cats, and I look forward to taking care of them!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. Grew up walking stuffed animals around on a leash just to prove to my parents that I was responsible enough to own one myself. I had two dogs that both lived to 16 so my track record is good I am currently working from home three to four days a week and that allows for me to be flexible with my timing. I can leave the house, let a dog out or just give him/her some extra belly rubs I have a fenced in yard that allows your fur baby to run around freely, but within the home I love to snuggle. Your pets are allowed on furniture and in beds at this household, as long as it’s okay with you.

About: Hello! My name is Melissa, and I have spent my entire life surrounded by cats and dogs. I provide patient, dedicated, and specialized pet care tailored to your animal's unique personality and needs. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of dogs, including: • High-energy breeds that need structured exercise and mental stimulation. • Bully breeds and small dogs of all temperaments. • Reactive pups who require extra patience, careful handling, and a calm environment. I understand that every pet has a different comfort level, and I prioritize a gentle, positive approach to make them feel safe and happy. If you are looking for a highly capable, reliable, and patient caregiver who truly understands dog behavior, look no further! I can't wait to meet your furry family members. I work full time Monday through Friday. I am off all major holidays to help with pet needs. I live on the East side of Cincinnati near bike paths and trails. I look forward to providing for your pets needs. Safety is my absolute top priority, and I am proud to offer a secure, low-stress environment where your pet can truly thrive. 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. Because I understand that every pet moves at their own pace—especially high-energy or reactive animals—I practice complete patience and exclusively use positive reinforcement methods to build a solid foundation of genuine trust. You can look forward to seamless, proactive communication throughout your pet's stay, including regular updates and plenty of photos, ensuring you have total peace of mind knowing they are safe, respected, and loved like family.

About: I have handled dogs for the entirety of my life, all sizes from small to large, and with a fenced yard, they will have space!! I will be at home all the time, and will be able to give 100% attention to your animal while they are in my care. I have a fenced yard and two fur babies to keep your dog company. I can crate your animal if needed, but have space for your animal to explore

“Charlotte was on time and reliable. I knew my dog was in good hands. She gives her long walks and always sends a picture, which we appreciate!”

About: I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, and that hands-on experience is what I bring to every walk. I understand dog body language, pacing, leash manners, and how to read when a dog needs a break or a bit more activity — not from a course, but from years of actually living with dogs day to day. I treat every walk the same way I would for my own dog: attentive, on time, and focused entirely on their safety and comfort for the full duration. Whether your dog is high-energy, a little nervous around new people, or just needs a steady routine, I adjust to what they need rather than running a one-size-fits-all walk. You can expect clear communication before and after every visit, so you always know exactly how things went. My schedule is flexible throughout the day, so dog walking isn't squeezed into a narrow window — it's a real part of my daily routine. That means I can offer consistent mid-morning, afternoon, or early evening walks, and I'm also able to accommodate last-minute requests or changes in timing without it being a scramble. If your schedule shifts week to week, I can usually adjust to match it. Safety is the first thing I think about with every walk. When I arrive, I double-check that all doors and gates are secure before I bring your dog out, and I make sure the leash and collar or harness are properly fitted before we leave — no slipping out mid-walk. I stick to routes I know well, avoid off-leash areas unless specifically asked, and keep a close eye on other dogs, traffic, and anything that could startle or spook your dog. I always carry water on hot days and adjust the pace or length of the walk based on weather and how your dog is doing that day. Before I leave, I make sure your home is exactly as I found it — doors locked, lights as they were, nothing out of place. If anything ever comes up during a walk, you'll hear from me right away, not after the fact.

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.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. With more than 30 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I've been surrounded by pets since I was a child. In fact, my very first job was walking neighborhood dogs when I was in middle school—and my love for caring for animals has only grown since then. I've raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood, giving me firsthand experience with house training, socialization, leash training, and the patience and consistency puppies need to thrive. My dogs are truly part of our family, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also have experience caring for senior pets who require daily medications, as well as rescue dogs who may need extra patience, understanding, and a calm approach due to anxiety or special feeding routines. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Beyond dogs and cats, I've cared for many other animals over the years, including birds, fish, hamsters, turtles, frogs, lizards, and hermit crabs. I'm comfortable caring for a wide variety of pets and am always happy to learn about their individual needs. In my full-time career, I work in an elementary school, so I have summers off and additional some flexibility throughout the year (outside of carpooling to my kid’s sports 😉). That allows me to provide dependable, attentive care and plenty of time, love, and companionship for your furry (or feathered or scaly!) family members. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets are safe, happy, and treated like family while you're away. My schedule is very flexible this summer! Since I work at an elementary school during the school year, I have the summer months off and am available throughout the day to care for your pets. Aside from occasionally carpooling my son to camp/sports, my schedule is wide open, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, companionship, or a consistent routine while you're away, I'm happy to work with your schedule to provide dependable, attentive care. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I prefer caring for dogs in their own home whenever possible, where they can remain in a familiar, comfortable environment and maintain their normal routine. I understand that changes can be stressful for some pets, and I strive to make your time away as calm and worry-free as possible. My schedule is flexible, and I'm happy to work around your dog's individual needs, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and favorite activities. I also welcome the opportunity to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet can get to know me and you can feel completely confident that they'll be in caring, capable hands.

About: I’ve always enjoyed helping others care for their pets. Having two cats of my own so I know the stress of finding reliable care that will take all of the quirks and specifics our pets have seriously! I’ve been walking dogs since elementary school and have sat for family and friends, always happy to help feed, walk, and play with your pet to keep their schedule as if you never left! I hope I can get to know your pet and their needs! Weekends are the perfect time for me to spend a few days taking care of your pets! Wednesdays being a better day for short term like walks and playtime. I’m unfortunately unable to board at this time. I’m willing to stay in the house to provide overnight care, however I can accommodate you and your pet!

About: Hi there! Thanks so much you for checking out my profile ☺️ A bit about me: I recently moved to Cincy with my kitty Dany (full name: Daenerys Stormborn Targaryen). She’s a sociable and classically talkative Tortoiseshell (pictured above) and I love her to pieces! I’m a dietitian and health-tech professional by trade looking for some supplemental work while I hunt for full time position. I've grown up with dogs, cats, fish, and hamsters in my home and have had many sitting jobs for family and friends throughout the years. I promise to be the loving and reliable caretaker you're searching for to provide the best care for your pet. Past sitter-seekers have described me as dependable, attentive, and great with communication. If this sounds like what you're looking for, please don’t hesitate to message me or send a request my way! I do not currently have a full time job, so my schedule is wide open! Give me a reason to stay busy please and thanks 🙏🏻 My apartment complex is gated and I’m right next to the Wasson Trail, so your boarded pup will be going on my daily walks (as able, of course!). My home is a quiet and calm ground floor unit perfect for easy potty breaks with great windows for people watching (just ask my cat). I am tidy, especially at other folks’ homes, so you can expect a mess-free drop-in visit and/or sitting experience.

“Jenna is great! She was able to help me out last minute and is very responsive. I love getting cute pictures of my pup when she walks her. She tunes into my girl to see what she needs and sends wonderful details of her walk. I know my girl is in good hands with Jenna!”

About: I’ve cared for various dog and cat breeds/personalities throughout my life, I love them all! I have some experience administering medications to dogs and cats. I am patient and consistent when it comes to following rules or a routine. I will treat your babies like they’re my own! My daily routine includes caring for my 3 kitties by playing with, cleaning up after, and feeding/watering them; I’d love to do the same for your pets! I’m familiar with special diets and administering various forms of medication, as my cats and other pets I sit, are on medicated diets and take additional medications. I currently have open availability, save a few social obligations over then next two months, but I’m flexible and communicative so we can always discuss timelines! I treat other’s spaces with care and consideration, I like to be respectful above anything else. I love all animals and treat the pets I sit with the same care I do my own.
