About: My wife and I love dogs and are active with local rescues. We have five dogs of our own at home, a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities! We have Lacy - a black lab, Goldie - a cocker spaniel, Cinder - a pit-bull mix, Timmy - a teacup yorkie, and our newest addition, Noelle - a golden doodle puppy. I have a flexible schedule and can usually fit in three or four drop-in visits a day. My wife and I are both in education, so we work hours that are conducive to a second job in pet care. My full time job is a middle school social studies teacher, so I have active background checks and certifications. In addition, we have three dogs at home that are certified therapy dogs and have their Canine Good Citizen certification. We make regular visits to local nursing homes with our pets.

“Katlyn has been excellent walking Waffles. She has been punctual and provided timely updates. Have already rebooked her.”

About: I grew up around pets since before I can remember and I love hanging out with any animals! I love playing and cuddling with them! I am currently a third year at OSU home for the summer. I also work at 17 Public Square. I am open almost everyday all day besides when those shifts are scheduled. I have two medium size dogs that I play with often and are crate trained as well. Therefore I can play with them, give them breaks in their crates or anything else!

“Missy is wonderful! She loves my dogs like her own. She is very dependable. I highly recommend Missy to anyone looking for a dependable walker.”

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover, growing up with both dogs and cats and learning to care for them from a young age. As an adult, I’ve had two cats, including one who lived to the incredible age of 21, which gave me extensive experience with long-term and senior pet care. I currently share my home with our 6-year-old Papillon, who is a cherished member of our family. As a mom of two, I understand how important it is to trust that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for when you’re away. I would love the opportunity to provide that same peace of mind to other pet parents. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a pet owner myself, I’m already used to feeding, cleaning, and spending quality time with animals each day. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to plan my day around visits, whether that means morning, midday. I’m consistent and dependable, and I make it a priority to give each pet the attention, care, and companionship they need while their owner is away. When caring for pets in your home, I aim to keep them comfortable by sticking closely to their usual routine. I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning or potty breaks, and plenty of attention and playtime based on what your pet enjoys. For dogs, I offer safe, engaging walks suited to their pace and personality. I treat every home with respect and always follow your instructions carefully, and I’m happy to send updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands.

About: From making sure to engage in adequate playtime and socialization as a puppy to assistance with grooming to the occasional diaper change and medications for senior care, I've loved and adored taking care of our family Bichon Frisé Angel Baby! Every pet brings a different personality and unconditional love to our lives, because they're not just friends ~ they're family! So why not give back just as much love as they give us? You are your fur babies' whole world, so give them the gift of a little company, a fun walk, playtime, and extra treats and cuddles! I'm currently unemployed, but still live with my parents, so I'll have plenty of time to look after your pets! If this changes at any time, I will let you know immediately, so I can assist you in finding other arrangements or finding a compromise to ensure your pet still receives the care they deserve! Because Angel Baby can get a little jealous since she's an old lady, we don't have other dogs at our house, but she still gets all my love! This means cleaning up the occasional potty accident, routinely checking that her toys are functional and free of any potential hazards, keeping up with her medication schedule, and making sure to stay attentive of vehicles and plants she may try to ingest during walks. For my new furry friends, this also means ensuring that all laundry detergent and other dangerous substances are properly secured/stored and making sure the yard is free of any hazards or any broken/insecure fencing. You will be notified as soon as possible of any unsafe conditions, because your fur baby is family and we protect our family!

About: I have several years of pet care experience. I have a large horse farm that is perfect for long walks and exercise. I also have a fenced in area when your pet needs to be more confined for a short period of time. I am retired and only have a few hours a week where I have to maintain the farm. I am currently retired and this would be great for your pet and for me. I have one border collie who is one year old and a big goofball. He loves to play with everyone. I am available for most hours during the week. I can crate your dog while I am gone if you would feel more comfortable with that. I usually am only gone long enough to go to the grocery store.

About: With more than 24 years of hands-on experience, I provide dependable, compassionate care for pets of all ages and kinds—dogs, cats, birds, and ferrets. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and set of needs, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I offer a full range of flexible services, including overnight boarding, in-home pet and house sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, and feeding services. Whether your pet thrives in their own home or enjoys a cozy stay elsewhere, you can trust that they’ll receive attentive, reliable care and plenty of affection. My approach is calm, patient, and detail-oriented, with a strong focus on maintaining routines and minimizing stress. From energetic dogs to independent cats and more specialized pets like birds and ferrets, I’m committed to providing care you can feel confident about—and your pets will feel comfortable with. I am available daily, as well as for overnight stays to make sure your pet is comfortable and happy. I also offer medication administration, as needed. I do offer boarding services in my home. I have 3 fur babies that will gladly entertain and keep your pet(s) happy and active while you are away. We have a great neighborhood, with sidewalks for easy strolls during the day.

About: I've had two large-breed dogs for about 7 years. I'm experienced with their training, but also how dogs interact with other dogs and people. I'm familiar with walking large dogs and keeping them safe when exercising. I'm detail oriented, responsible and thorough. I am flexible with scheduling and have reliable transportation. I understand feeding schedules and can accommodate a schedule that fits your pet. I have availability during the week and weekend. Within my home, I have a fenced in yard, doggy gates and am always sure to keep their information up to date. I'm careful with closing doors and keeping pets leashed to make sure they are safe on walks. I'm aware to keep a safe environment and put food and other things they could get into away.

About: I am a mom to 5 kids, a dog and a cat. I have been a pet owner since I was a kid, I can't remember the last time I didn't have a pet. I am the primary caretaker of a border collie lab mix and mixed breed cat. I am preschool administrator in the area, so I can be flexible throughout the week and have lots of love to share with your furry family members. I am also active and will run, walk or play to help release your pets energy and love your pets while you are unable to. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member. If you have any questions feel free to get in contact with me.

“We had a great experience with Makenzie! She is the sweetest and took such good care of our pups! She always arrived on time and provided updates with photos after each walk! It gave us great peace of mind while we were out of town. We will definitely use her again!”
