Dog Walkers in Sterling, OH

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.

About: I started taking care of others dogs as an early teen including walking, giving medicine, feeding them, staying with them, ect I grew up with them and will now be fostering dogs in need of a loving home.

“We had to go out of town for two weeks and leave our 13 year old lab at home with a relative. Sylvia came to the house to feed, give meds, take walks with her and give her the attention, that she craved. Sylvia sent us pictures and videos of their time together. She adjusted her schedule to give additional help when needed. We were at ease knowing our dog was in such capable hands. We highly recommend Sylvia.”

About: Hi! I’ve been checking on dogs and cats for 6 years. I have free time during the day and I’d love to stop in and see your furry friends! I love animals and being able to care for them makes my day. My toddler will be coming with me so your dog/s will need to be good with kids. I’m a Stay at home mom so I’m very flexible! Anytime after 9am and before 530pm is best for me during the week and weekends.

About: I've been around a variety of different animals my entire life including being an owner of dogs from the time they are puppies to being seniors. I've personally trained all of my animals. We love to go on walks and I love meeting new pets! Im mainly a mom and currently working part time hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays. If we can work together with a schedule, I would be more than happy to meet your pets! As friendly as my Luna is, I would not be bringing her to your home for drop-ins or walks since it would be overwhelming with my 3 year old. I am more than happy to take care of multiple pets for one home.

“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!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up in a home with 3 dogs at all times. We have had a range of small pups, and also big/high energy ones like golden retrievers and huskies! I did obedience classes and shows with my Yorkee Poo for 4 years. I have provided dog sitting for close family friends for many years now, including walks, feeding, bathing, transporting (for a dog breeder), and boarding. I also raised five husky puppies, so I have a lot of experience with young pups, too. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine because I work from home while starting my own business, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins and walks any day of the week. I grew up with pets as a daily part of life, so caring for them feels familiar, natural, and genuinely fulfilling. Whenever I am caring for pets in a client's home, I make sure to follow any specific direction given by the pet owners. Whether that is s feeding schedule, regular walks, cuddles, or crating, I always make sure to understand a client's expectations and take care of their animals with the same love and care that they would.
