Dog Walking Pataskala

About: I love my dog and 3 cats, but have room in my heart to love many more! Your pets will be healthy and safe in my care. Whether throwing a ball, playing with toys or just snuggling together, your pet will be loved! I work from home with a flexible schedule that can fit most needs. I live on the east side of Columbus and I can easily travel locally. I have a proven track record of being reliable and conscientious. I realize I am a guest in your home and respect your home and property. I will always lock up when I leave and ensure pets are safely inside.

About: I had dogs growing up as a child and have taken care of them on and off throughout my whole life, but some specific examples of pet care include: taking care of my Grandparents 2 dogs when they no longer could, taking care of my best friends dogs (and many cats) when she goes on vacation, & of course taking care of my 2 cats that I am currently a mom of (I have had cats throughout my whole adult life). I understand the importance of allowing animals to get comfortable with you and come to you on their own terms and not trying to force them to let you pet them or play with them. I am comfortable taking the time to slowly encourage an animal to be comfortable in my presence. I am currently working part-time while I finish my degree, so I am available fairly often to help take care of your beloved animals. I am extremely reliable and I am often available for last minute situations and happy to help. I have experience and am comfortable with dog walking, picking up waste, and crating dogs when needed. I am willing to assist with cleaning litter boxes as needed and am willing to take time to play with and give your animals attention and love while you are away from the home.

“Jessica is a 5 star. She is great with our dog and super friendly. We will definitely use her again . She is also very responsible and dependable.”

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is the genuine love and lifelong experience I have with animals. I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, and to me, pets are family. My own dogs are truly like my children, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own. Growing up, we always had dogs in our home, and having animals as part of the family was something I always wanted to continue in my own life. Because of that, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, dependable, and caring when leaving your pet with someone else. I strive to create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets feel at home and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home during the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. We have a fenced-in yard and a doggie door, so dogs are able to safely go outside whenever they need to, making it easy for them to stay active and comfortable on their own schedule. Our dogs are truly part of our family, so caring for animals is already built into our everyday life. They have their own routines and habits, especially at bedtime. Every night when we take our son upstairs for bed, our dogs follow right along. One of them is usually waiting by the stairs looking at us like, “Come on, it’s bedtime!” It’s those little moments that show how loved and comfortable they are in our home, and I want every dog staying with us to feel that same sense of comfort and belonging. When pets are in my home, they will be treated like part of the family—just like my own dogs. My priority is always making sure they are safe, comfortable, well cared for, and getting plenty of love and attention while their owners are away. I want pets to feel relaxed and at home in our environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I understand the importance of being respectful of both their home and their pet’s routine. I will follow any instructions carefully to help pets stay comfortable in a familiar environment while also maintaining the same level of care, attention, and safety. No matter where I am caring for a pet, I believe trust is the most important thing. Animals need to feel safe with the person caring for them, and I always strive to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment for every pet I look after.

About: i’ve owned dogs my whole life, i can help with any age of dog along with any breed, i’m not scared of the size or weight of an animal. booking with me is the best way to go ! i do have a job in the mornings but after 1pm i’m available for all animals ! i will be able to give my undivided attention to your pet! i always make sure your animals are safe, if that means putting my own dogs up so your dog can feel comfortable then i’ll do that!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and currently have two dogs of my own experience-wise, including raising one from a puppy. My first dog was a rescue who was a beloved member of my family until she passed away in 2024, which taught me a lot about patience, routine care, and caring for a dog through all stages of life. I also have a senior dog who is 12 years old, so I’m familiar with the extra attention and care older pets sometimes need. While I haven’t owned a cat myself, I’ve spent time around cats while visiting friends and family and am comfortable caring for both dogs and cats. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care is already a consistent part of my daily routine since I have dogs of my own. Each day I’m used to feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on them, so caring for animals fits naturally into my schedule. Because I work part-time as a swim instructor in the mornings and have lighter hours outside of that, I have plenty of flexibility during the day and evening to care for other pets. On a weekly basis, I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and parts of the weekend, and I’m comfortable adjusting my schedule to meet a pet’s needs and routine. Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for pets. In my own home, I care for my dogs by keeping a clean, calm, and safe environment. I make sure they always have fresh water, proper feeding schedules, and regular exercise. I’m attentive to their behavior and needs, and I prioritize keeping them comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home through drop-ins or walks, I respect each pet’s routine and follow all instructions carefully. I always make sure doors are secure, pets are safe before leaving, and I provide updates so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away.

About: I have had a dog ever since I was born, and am now 23 years old! I helped train my newest dog, so I have a lot of experience in puppy training. My last dog unfortunately had to have her leg amputated when she got older, so I also have experience with disabled dogs. I have also volunteered at an animal shelter for years, so I am good with all kinds of dogs- big and small, anxious and energetic, etc. Whenever one of my friends is out of town, I am their go-to pet sitter. I pet sit for a lot of my friend’s cats, so while I’ve never had one, I know how to take care of them. My dog, Rosie, is my entire world, so I know how important your pets are to you! I will treat them as if they are my own :). I do have a full-time job, but it is very flexible. I am able to leave during the day if needed for your pet! My nights are always free too, so I am able to house-sit. Your pet will be my #1 priority in my routine! I will keep your pet safe with my life! I will ensure they are on a leash when outside and make sure they are comfortable and getting their exercise in. Inside, I love to play with them! I will ensure no doors are left open so they can’t slip outside to maintain their safety. But I will make sure they are having fun while inside!

“Darren is absolutely WONDERFUL!! My pitmix Lola adores him. I recently had foot surgery and has helped out immensely and is currently Lola's best friend. I couldn't recommend him enough!!!!!”

“Kyla has been wonderful to work with! Our energetic pup has lots of rules after training and Kyla was very open to learning our expectations for him. She already has been perpetuating his training. She has our dog walking right next to her like he does with us. Highly recommend!”

About: I bring a fun, bubbly personality to every visit—but what truly sets me apart is the way I understand animal behavior. As a psychology major, I’ve trained my own dogs using positive reinforcement and classical conditioning (Pavlov’s principles), focusing on consistency, trust, and communication rather than punishment. Because of this approach, my dogs were well-mannered, confident, and happy: they never chewed household items, had house accidents, or developed anxiety-based behaviors. I believe great pet care is about more than supervision—it’s about guiding behavior with patience, encouragement, and love! I work a couple hours during the day and take care of my two kids (3 and 6) at the house. I often have online classes so there’s always something to do for me at home! My kids miss having our dog, Big Boy, around to pet and snuggle. He was 16 when he passed away.😥 We have a lot of love to give and miss having a dog! I am a non-smoker with a clean house. I have white carpet😂 but have a handy carpet cleaner in case your pet has an accident😜 I also have multiple dog leashes and couplers so can walk three dogs at a time. I have carpeted stairs- which is easier for older pups. I do have large crates if your pup needs to be crated (unless they are potty trained -then that would not be necessary). Dogs are allowed on my couches. I have lots of cozy blankets! It’s a quiet end of street neighborhood. Dogs are all “puppies” to me and I love them!

About: I currently have an 13year old English Bulldog, Roxy! She has always been pretty easy to please, make sure her food and water are full and her bed is available 😃 I have 4grandpups that live in Cincinnati. They know when they get to Grandma's neighborhood, they start getting excited and restless in the car. I also have 2 grand cats. They are two of the most laid back cats I have ever met. I watch them for my daughter when she has to travel.I also have a Bearded Dragon, Jose. He is probably 7years old. I'm looking to blend my free time with my love for dogs and really all animals (I don't do snakes 😬) . I do work during the week so would be able to do more evening and weekend walks, drop-in, etc.. I look forward to meeting you!! I get an hour lunch at my Monday -Thursday job. I have some flexibility to go home and give a potty break. I am pretty flexible with a sleep schedule also. We have a fenced backyard and own our home. I also have a 13 year old English Bulldog, Roxy, that gets along with our 4grandpups.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs for as long as I can remember and have grown up around them my whole life. As a proud pet owner of a Goldendoodle, I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, reliable, and caring looking after your pets. I genuinely enjoy walking dogs, spending time with them, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your pet will be treated like family and cared for with patience, attention, and plenty of affection. I am currently a full-time nursing student, so my schedule can change about every couple of months depending on my classes and clinicals. In my free time, I’m looking to walk dogs and provide pet sitting because I truly enjoy caring for animals. I will always be open and honest about my availability and make sure to communicate clearly so pet owners can feel comfortable and confident leaving their pets in my care. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Whether I’m providing walks, drop-in visits, sitting, or overnight stays, I give pets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also making sure they are fed, hydrated, and comfortable. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs and will always communicate with owners through updates and photos so they can feel at ease while away.

About: There has never been a time in my life that I can’t remember not having a dog, I have owned many breeds, from a 2lb Pomeranian to a Great Pyrenees, from puppies to seniors I enjoy them all. Hi there! I took a short break from Rover for a few months, but I’m excited to be back and accepting bookings again. I’m now home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! I have a fenced backyard and three dogs to help keep your dog company. We have a built in doggie door so your dog will be able to go in and out as they want to, should they choose to use it.

“John met us on his own time to get acquainted to the house and acclimated with the dogs. One of our dogs was very shy but John took the time and care to get her warmed up to him so she could comfortably walk with them. He's been on time every day and willing to work with our schedule even if there are last minute changes. You can tell he is doing this because he really enjoys and cares about the animals. Make sure to book him quick if he's still available!”

About: I treat every dog like family—because that’s how I care for my own! I’ve spent years caring for my dogs and those of friends and family, especially while they were out of town. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including playful puppies and slower-moving seniors who need extra patience and love. Whether it’s belly rubs, slow strolls, or high-energy playtime, I adjust to meet each dog’s unique needs. Your pup will be pampered, safe, and loved—just like they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. I work part-time as a home health caregiver three days a week. On those days, I have a split schedule—just 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, with a break in between. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. Outside of those hours, my schedule is very open, allowing me to give your pet the love, attention, and care they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog like my own—loved, pampered, and well cared for. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and secure environment, free of hazards and full of attention. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, from meal times and medication to play and potty breaks. I also send regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. With my background as a home health caregiver, being attentive, responsible, and trustworthy is second nature to me—qualities I bring to every pet I care for.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for the most of my life and genuinely love spending time with animals.

I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and focused on making pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I’ll treat them like family and provide the love and attention they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks on most weekends and weekdays, and I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and two friendly dogs that enjoy companionship and play. I can also crate your dog if preferred or needed for their routine. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and individual needs to help pets feel relaxed and at home. I’ll care for your pet with patience, love, and the same attention I would give my own animals.

About: I am very good with reactive dogs, having had one myself. I have tried to become as knowledgeable as I can in all things dog, but am always willing to learn new things to better suit yours pups needs! I am working towards becoming an Animal Behaviorist!
