About: Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve worked with playful puppies, shy rescues, and older dogs who need a slower, more gentle approach. I’m especially patient and attentive, whether that means reinforcing basic training, sticking to a detailed routine, or just giving extra cuddles and reassurance. What makes me different is how much I truly treat every pet like family. I don’t just “watch” pet, I bond with them. I pay close attention to their behavior, energy, and comfort so they feel secure and loved while you’re away. I am currently a graduate student doing all online classes, so my schedule can quite be flexible! I have reliable transportation as well. I only have hour long workouts that can be moved to whatever time preferred. I provide care exclusively in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all care instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or specific preferences, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. Safety is always a top priority. I’m careful to secure doors and entry points to prevent escapes, keep the environment clean and hazard-free, and respect any household rules you have in place. I also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and well-being so I can quickly notice if anything seems off.

“Five stars to Devon!!! She’s the best dog walker ever. She cares so much for our fur balls and I know they are in good hands with her. Very trustworthy. We’re moving out of town and so sad we won’t have Devon to walk our dog after this month. She even got our pets a going away present. Unexpected and so sweet!!!”

“I just got Chapman and was nervous how he would do with new people; however, Haleigh did such a good job with him. Her feedback is great and really cares! Thank you!”

About: Not accepting new clients until January 2027. Current clients, my calendar is blocked but send through your dates as a request, and I’ll confirm our availability. We do not offer cat care in our home. We accept up to (2) dogs at a time. If you prefer your dog to board alone, a $35 fee can be added to block our calendar to other clients during your dates. I’ve always owned dogs, cats and horses! I’m now pet-less and looking to love yours occasionally! I’m use to large and small pets. We love going for walks! I work from home and own my own business so my schedule is pretty flexible to be available to care for and play with your pet! I have a large fenced in back yard. I do have a 9 year old daughter, so pet must be good with kids! I prefer pets who do not get on furniture but it’s not a deal breaker.

“Very reliable and flexible, my dog loves her”

“Holly helped us out two days this week taking Cooper (4 months old) for a walk during lunch. She kept us informed on how he did and we will definitely request her services again!”

About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life, until the recent passing of my family dog. I am a graduate of The Ohio State University with a BS in Animal Sciences. I have worked at the Columbus Zoo, dog boarding facilities, and vet hospitals so I have a pretty good understanding of dog health and behavior. I am pretty low-key, so I try to be as calm and accommodating to all dog personality types. Whether you have a quiet senior or an excitable puppy, I can bend and mold to your doggo's needs! My services does not stop with just dogs, please ask me about your other lovable critters! I do work full time, so my services will primarily be available after 3:30 and on weekends. If my services are needed before 3:30pm, Please arrange them with me well ahead of time so that I can make the necessary changes in my FT work schedule to fulfill your needs! I am currently working full time Monday-Thursday, so I am available Fridays-Sundays. Depending on your location, I may be available for evening drop ins during the week after 530pm. If you are looking for Housesitting during the weekdays, I am able to take requests on a case-by-case basis. I have a cat of my own at home. Out of respect for both your pet and my own, I typically prefer coming to you and providing care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. Pets stress less when they are able to remain at home in a familiar space. I will treat your home respectfully and

“The best!”

About: As a German Shepherd Husky owner, I’m fully equipped to handle dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Raising a high-drive breed has given me hands-on experience with confident leash handling, safe play, and providing the physical exercise and mental engagement active dogs need. Safety, reliability, and patience are my top priorities. Whether following strict feeding routines, managing high energy, or ensuring a calm de-stressing environment, I care for every pet with the same vigilance I give my own. You’ll always get prompt communication and daily photo updates for total peace of mind. I’m currently looking for work so my schedule is open! Let me know what you typically prefer when it comes to your pet care and I should be able to accommodate. As a German Shepherd/Husky owner, safe handling and environment control are second nature to me. My home is set up to keep pets comfortable, secure, and stress-free: Double-Door & Leash Protocol: I maintain strict door awareness to prevent door-darting or escape attempts. Leashes are always secured before doors open. Hazards Picked Up: All electrical cords, small household items, human food, and toxic plants are kept out of reach at all times. Controlled Introductions: I never force interactions between animals. All pets are introduced slowly and on-leash in neutral areas to ensure everyone feels safe. Routine & Medical Adherence: I strictly follow your feeding schedules, crate routines, and medication protocols. Emergency Preparedness: I keep contact info for your preferred vet and the nearest local 24/7 emergency clinic on hand at all times.

About: I have a German Shepherd that is five years old and she is extremely friendly and good with other dogs and people. She loves having other dogs around. I've watched many of family members and friends pets. My schedule is very flexible. Every other weekend I'm free and I'm always free every-other Tuesday, Wednesday's Thursdays. Pet care routine is very important to me. I live right by a park and I have a fur baby that will keep them company. All the walks and cuddles! I have plenty of dog toys!

“Magdalena was outstanding! She was very attentive and caring with our dog, and she engaged with him in different ways, including walks in the neighborhood and the nearby park and playing with him in the back yard and inside. Our dog gets anxious when we have to leave him at home, but she really helped mitigate his anxiety. We will gladly use her services again!”

“I highly recommend Isabell. She was the most trustworthy walker I have had and only had good things to say. She goes above and beyond and I will definitely be going to her first the next time I need my dog walked at home!”

About: Hi! My name is Sabrina and I’m a second year optometry student at The Ohio State University! My first job at 13 was taking care of my next door neighbor’s dog. She loved me so much that she referred me to a few other people within the neighborhood. They relied on me to walk, feed, give medications, among other responsibilities. I never had the opportunity to have my own furry friend, so I loved dedicating my time to helping others with theirs :) I’m a second year optometry student looking for an easy and fun way to make some extra money! My schedule for school keeps me pretty busy, but I do have time to fit in some pet sitting jobs! I love pets and love being active, so walking dogs definitely is within my ballpark (no pun intended). If your pet loves to have someone keeping them company I’m the same way!

About: I’ve been dog walking for almost 9 years. I love what I do. Working with dogs brightens my day. I walk a dog for 40 minutes and then play with them inside for 20. I look forward to meeting your pet and your family. I have been dog walking from 11:00AM-3:00PM Monday through Friday for years. I am really looking forward to adding a new family to my 2:00PM-3:00PM shift and a 9:30AM-10:30AM shift to my morning. When I am caring for a dog I always make sure they are on the leash while outside or in the house with the doors shut.

About: I’m an Ohio State sophomore studying animal sciences on track to be a veterinarian and I have worked at a vet clinic for 3 years! I have extended experience in administering medications, both oral and injectable, including diabetic care. I also have 2 golden retrievers at home and 4 cats. I’m currently a student at Ohio State and have my car on campus if needed! I have lots of breaks during my day that I would be able to get out and help! I will always make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m comfortable following your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide.
