Dog Walking Patterson Park

“Brad has been a fantastic help for our dog walking needs for our golden retriever. He’s always quick to respond, easy to work with, and dependable. Each walk report card comes with multiple photos. I’d recommend him to anyone in the Dayton area looking for a dog walker.”

About: I've had dogs ever since I was 10, but my experience with them goes far beyond that. When I was a little kid, before I ever had a dog, I would go to this read with a dog program called "Paws to Read." I would spend countless hours reading to the dogs and befriending them, along with a cat or two here and there. When I was 10, I got my first dog, a husky, and gave him a wonderful life. He had quite a few medical issues and behaved older for his age because of it, so I know how to provide senior pet care. He has since passed, but my two current dogs, one pitbull and one pitsky, remind me every day how important pets are to me. I've had them both for eight years now, during which we've taken numerous car rides, walks, enjoyed outside and inside playtime, movie nights, and anything a dog could dream of. Now, while I've never had a cat because of the majority of my family being allergic, I never turn away from a cat. I'm a regular at the Gem City Catfe, where I play with the cats often and have gone so often that they are comfortable with me. I keep cat and dog treats on me in case I come across a stray, because all cats and dogs deserve to feel some love. I've also dog-sat and house-sat for a few friends before, so I know how to handle situations like pets not getting along, bathroom accidents, and being a bit of a picky eater. Currently, I am a full time student and work full time at UDRI (UD's Research Institute) from 8:30am - 3:30am. During the summer I won't be taking any in person classes, just two online. But when I return to UD for my final year, I will be taking classes again and may be slightly more limited. When it comes to my pets and caring for clients pets, the comfort of the pet is most important to me. Personally, my two dogs don't get along with each other very well, so they typically have to be separated. Even so, I always make sure to treat them both equally and give them lots of love! If I take one for a car ride and ice cream, I bring ice cream back for the other and take the other for a car ride later that week. If my client has dogs similar to mine, who need to be separated, I would be sure to treat them equally and split my time with them according to my client's requests. Given single-pet households, I'd spend a lot of my time with them! In my downtime, I'd make sure to sit with them while I work on coursework. I'd be sure to take them on walks and go for potty breaks. And of course I'd make sure we get a lot of play time in and lots of love!

“Morgan is awesome!”

“Dorothy was great! Very friendly and good with Luna. She sent pictures during each walk so I could see my pup was getting attention! I would definitely book her again!”

David S.

“Amanda was so responsive, helpful, despite me not leaving the harness out for her to find. She fed our pup and went above and beyond. Highly recommended!”

Serena A.

“I am so thankful for Lori's patience with my senior dog who needs a bit more care! She spent time with both my dog and cat and I could tell from the pictures that they enjoy her presence :)”

Lorena R.

“I needed someone to take my Sam for a walk because I was unable to walk him due to an injury. It was a few days since I have walked him and he was very sad.. I looked at many profiles and I chose Katie! She made room in her schedule to come by same day with not much notice. Katie arrived a few minutes early and she met Sam and he loved her instantly so did I! I will definitely be using Katie on a regular basis.”

About: I have been taking care of animals my entire life, I have experience with cats, bunnies, dogs, ducks, chickens, and snakes! I will give your fur (or feather) baby so much love, they'll hardly notice you're gone! I am currently a freelancer, who is underemployed so I can fit pet care into my day in whatever capacity is needed. I am happy to stay overnight as well. I have pet sat for many notable Dayton figureheads including Mrs. Ohio! My home is not equipped to host dogs, but I will happily come to yours. I am a cardio instructor who loves to be outside, so going on walks will be my favorite part of the day. I will happily play with your pets, and snuggle them on the couch while I read or work on my latest craft project. I am very tidy and will leave your home exactly as I found it.

“Autumn was such a huge help while I was working. She made sure Koda went on good walks and spent the time to come meet us before we started walking! She is on time and great with animals”

Emmy L.

“Kaitlyn was very nice and very responsive! She met us last minute to walk our pup.”

Ashlee S.

“Beth was terrific! We needed someone to walk our 2 dogs for an hour each day for over a week. She was there every day, on time and with a cheery, friendly attitude. We appreciate her and will definitely hire her again - THANKS BETH!”

About: I have a lifelong history of caring for aninals, wether it be on the farm as a kid or the five years of experience in veterinary medicine. I love playing, snuggling and learning the personality of all animals. With this combination of experinece and love I am the perfect fit for any family needing a sitter. I curently have a sweet dog, and a cat. Adding another animal into my daily routine would be an easy fit and transition for me. My pets are like family to me. I prioritize their well being above all else. I extend the same care and dedication to other's pets, striving to ensure their happiness and health at all times.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was born. My dogs vary in age and right now are 12, 10, and 3 years old. I am currently a freshman at Thomas More playing soccer, I have 3 dogs back home in Ohio, Being able to pet sit fits in perfectly. I will walk the dogs or drive them depending on what the owner likes, I will play with them and take them around the city

“I’m a breeder for over 20 yrs, I don’t let just anyone watch my dogs. I am in California and one of my dogs was in Ohio with my son. I reached out to Liesa and she was amazing. I felt so comfortable, from a distance. Pictures , photos , truly amazing. My girl is not just my pet but next generation of service dogs. My dog is my family and I would recommend her any time!”

About: **My day job as a nanny is ending, as the family I work for is moving away at the end of March, so as of April I will have way more availability for pet sitting! I'm looking to fill up my schedule with as many pet sitting gigs as possible including overnight stays and drop-ins at any hour, so don't hesitate to reach out! :) ** Hi! I'm Susie. I've been pet sitting for six years, including overnights and drop-ins. I am a nanny with many years of childcare experience. I also have always loved both dogs and cats, and not owning any of my own gives me the freedom to spend time with different animals as much as I want. :) I have a fun and engaging personality and a background in theatre and acting which I think works great for both kids and fur babies! I will always make sure your fur child is well-cared for, and I can provide references that can attest to this! :) **My day job as a nanny is ending, as the family I work for is moving away at the end of March, so as of April I will have way more availability for pet sitting!
