Dog Walking West Columbus Interim

About: Owned dogs for majority of my life, a couple rescues and one that the owner could no longer care for. Get along with every dog I have met. Willing to drive them to different locations for walks and to get them out of the house. Very trustworthy with people, animals, and homes. Have experience walking animals and house-sitting. Want to help people with their pets to ensure everyone is happy and healthy. I feel dogs deserve so much in life and my hope is that I can repay them for what they have given me by making sure they are happy. Also want to help their owners because I remember how stressful it was when I would go on vacations or even short trips and worrying about our dogs and if they would be cared for.

About: I love pets!! My kids make fun of me because I would likely have a zoo if I had enough time and resources. So, since I can’t love on all them as my own, let me temporarily love on yours while you are away. I currently own 2 Shiba Inus named Murray and Mira, who are extremely friendly with other dogs, and 2 cats who think they are dogs. I am constantly pet sitting for my friends and neighbors. From my girlfriend and her diabetic cat to my buddy with a rambunctious Aussie to the rescue foster who is scared of her own shadow. These are just some examples of my experiences caring for pets. I have a nice, fenced yard in a safe neighborhood and a welcoming home to accommodate pet sitting as needed. Help me fund my own time away and/or building a fund for my next furry family member. ;) I currently work from home and have flexible schedule. I prefer in home boarding during weekdays, but could do in home care if within 10 minutes driving or on weekends. I am open minded to your care needs. I typically walk 3 miles a day, so I’m happy to go on a nice walk with your best friend.

“Hannah was so sweet and kind to our dog Hurley. She came over before we left town to meet her. She took her on walks daily and kept us up to date with photos!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for over 10 years and have experienced in long and short term pet sitting. I’m flexible and adaptable for each pet personality! I have a part time job, currently working about 20 hours a week. I only work about three days a week, so I’m flexible and often available for your pet’s needs. I can respond to any of your pets needs. I love going outside to play, go for walks, or have a relaxing day with your pet!

About: I work at The Wag Dog Bar in Grandview! If your pups like other ones, let’s talk about the possibility of me bringing them for a few hours! If that makes you uncomfortable, no worries! I will still enjoy doing all other services to provide for your pup :) This position put me through a lot of training about dog behavior! I recently rescued my very own bully mix from the shelter. I am very comfortable with any and all pups! I am currently working two part time jobs so my schedules often changes! If you want to ask, please reach out and I will provide you my schedule for the whole week! My pup is like my child. I treat her with gentleness, just like I would your pup. I always have treats on hand (please let me know if your pup has any allergies!) I always go by the policy that the pup’s comfort and experience comes first!!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was very young. I currently have a 14 year old beagle/cattle dog and 12 year old Pomeranian. My Pomeranian had three litters of puppies, so I also have experience with that as well. Additionally, one of my dogs previously was special needs, so I do have experience there and giving medications I’m currently working part time, so I will be available to assist during the week and some weekends/holidays. The best hours for me are between 9am and 3pm weekly, but just ask and I can try to accommodate your schedule I initially had an apartment with my first dog and understand the importance of keeping your pet on a leash, as well as picking up after them. As a home owner, I see the importance of allowing your pet to wander in a safe environment, while maintaining a watchful eye

About: I have years of experience caring for my own dogs, as well as the pets of friends and family. I fostered for a local rescue group for 5 years and also worked for 2 years as a veterinary assistant, where I gained experience caring for dogs with all sorts of medical and behavioral needs. I have fostered many different types of dogs of different energy levels and sizes. My personal dog is a Jack Russell mix whom I adopted through Franklin County. I am also experienced in giving various types of medications and am willing to work with special needs dogs. I have a fully remote job that has flexible hours. I work a typical Monday-Friday 8-4 schedule, however I am able to work from your home if needed as long as there is wifi and a place for me to set down my laptop. On weekends, I am happy to take your pets around to a local park, a pet store, or anything else that may help them feel pampered and happy. I have my own car so can arrive and leave at my leisure. I am happy to bring a book or a crochet project to your house and hanging out with your pet if the would prefer just knowing someone is around, and I can also take them on walks and help wear them out so they are ready to relax when you are after the work day is done.

About: I love dogs! I’ve always loved them. When i got my first dog at 8 I was terrified. I would scream and jump on the toilet. She wasn’t even the size of my backpack lol. As the years went on I grew not only a pet but a sister! She was there for me even when i didn’t think i needed her. I want to give your pet the same love I gave to her! Right now i have a mini golden doodle. She is a very special dog lol. She gets on my nerves but i wouldn’t trade her for anything. She’s always doing different things to keep me on my toes. I would make sure that your dog is properly cared for. Whether that is playing fetch with them or taking them for a walk. I live in an apartment that has a huge field. They will get the proper exercise for sure. I love to run with them.

“Samantha did amazing with my (very energetic and easily distracted) boy. I knew from her meet and greet that she was very understanding and kind. My dog loved her immediately and I’ll definitely book with her again.”

About: I have been watching since I was 20 years old. I watched friends dogs, siblings dogs and I used to have a Jack Russell beagle mix. His name was Milo. I work Monday through Friday, but I drove a truck. I’m on the road all day so I have the ability to come home. Check on the animals play with them. Feed them walk them throughout the day. I usually get off at 4 PM. No matter if I’m in some ways home or the animals are at my house I love to go out for walks with dogs and play with pets in general pet them. Let them sit on my life and just spend time with them so they never feel lonely.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for a long time. While babysitting when I was 10 I also dog sat for the summer. I also let out my neighbors dog on holidays when they are out of town with family as well as feed on a schedule. I am a current college student who attends the University of Cincinnati and home for the summer and I work part time as a Home Health Aide. Outside of being the Home Health Aide I have plenty of time to assist families who may be unable to provide care amongst vacations and work schedule. I am also eager to walk dogs for a long period of time and take part in some enrichment activities. I can easily crate your dog if needed and am willing to play with any dogs for a long period of time. Providing enrichment filled activities to keep animals entertained. As well as long walks around the neighborhood if comfortable to do so.

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I’ve had Oliver (frenchie) since he was a puppy, so I’m used to everything from training to daily routines. He requires allergy medication, which means I’m comfortable giving meds and paying close attention to a dog’s needs. I also frequently care for my family’s three dogs (two Frenchies and an English bulldog), so I’m great at handling multiple pups and making sure each one gets the attention they deserve. I’m currently working 3rd shift, so if you’re needing someone in the morning to let out your furry pet I can! Or if you want someone home all day with your pet, that works perfect for me as well! I can do walks during the days (after a little nap). I would say I’m pretty flexible if told ahead of time! I live in an apartment and do have a dog named Oliver. Oliver pretty much gets along with other dogs! If you’d rather your dog not be around another, I’d be more than willing to stay with your pets! My cousin would love watching my dog. I love meeting new fur babies and would love to help whenever I can with whatever you need!

About: I have had a dog for majority of my life and grew up around dogs. I have dog and house sat many different times. Looking for a new way to bring in some money while doing something I enjoy. I work outside of Columbus, I don’t usually get home until around 5 but I am free the rest of the evening once I do get home. I cannot do visits early in the morning on weekdays and I cannot do drop in visits during the work day. I live in an apartment at the moment and do not want to be boarding animals in my space. My apartment is not very big, does have a dog park but very small.

“If Tonee is available, just go ahead and book her already! She did the best job walking my super energetic dog! I don’t think it could have gone better. She is super responsive, very personable, and is very detail-oriented and remembers everything discussed during the meet and greet on how to take care of your pup. She will also leave amazing rover cards with how the visit went with lots of pictures which is so appreciated. Tonee is fantastic and honestly deserves more than 5 stars!”
