“Jared was absolutely wonderful with Josie. He is far more than a dog walker. He is gets to know your dog and provide such affection! I highly recommend Jared and intend on asking him for help again.”
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs since birth, and love both immensely! I am a dog mom to two rescues, Pretzel and Ducky, who I adopted in 2017 and 2019. My clothes may always be hairy, and my face never dry, but my heart melts every time a pup lays their head in my lap. I have dog and cat sat for friends, neighbors, and relatives as an excuse to enjoy “bonus pets” for a few days. Plus, I’m well trained in the arts of tug of war, play fighting, squeaky toy retrieval, and “da bird” for the kitties. Pets are a beloved and irreplaceable part of a family. I will treat all animals like the fuzzy little treasures they are. I recently left my office job, and your pets will have my full attention. My only fixed commitments are less than two hours in duration, so I can work with your schedule. As a lifelong pet owner, I ensure all doors and windows are shut at all times, and have mastered the art of squeezing through narrow openings without letting out curious creatures. I am happy to comply with any instructions for your pet’s care to keep them safe- be it food restrictions, closing toilet seats or bathroom doors, toy access, harnesses, etc. I live on a quiet col de sac. There is a large yard with a four foot aluminum fence (affectionately referred to as “the gilded cage”) which has successfully contained my own resident escape artist, Pretzel.
“Saul takes great care of Mango! He is very patient with her, and even put on her coat without me asking when he came to walk her in the freezing temperatures. I will always trust Saul to walk and take care of Mango.”
“Cathy is a wonderful dogwalker! She was conscientious and caring regarding my older dog's needs. She communicates well and provided photos daily. Cathy made me feel at ease in trusting her with my dog and in my home.”
About: I’ve had dog, cats and even farm animals my entire life, loving and caring for them properly was engrained into me from a young age. As a pet mom of a dog and 4 cats I understand how truly important these small creatures can become in your life and I will be sure to listen to them and care for them like my own. Please keep in mind I do work a full time job but I work to fit pet care and activities in between that, even coming home on lunches or 15s to ensure pets are well taken care of. I will care for your pets in your home, doing things such as walkings, feeding and watering, ensuring they follow all of the rules and routines as if you were there. My goal is to make sure they are safe and as comfortable as possible with a new person.
“Nina has done a great job walking my dogs! She leaves very detailed notes with pictures & is very kind and timely. She always quickly responds to messages and lets me know in advance when she will be out of town. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker!”
“Kathleen was awesome! I had a last minute dog walking need and she was so great to work with. Very responsive to messages and sent lots of pictures from her walks with Aspen. I will definitely keep her in mind for future needs!”
About: I am a lifelong pet lover. Would love to care for yours. Love the seniors and can give meds. Walks and playtime are the best! I am retired. Monday morning I volunteer at Ohio Cat Resource (OAR) and Wednesday is taking care of human nephew during business hours. Mostly flexible rest of the time I am happy to care for your pet at your home. I am retired and flexible. I would treat your pet and home with TLC
About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—which gave me a lifelong comfort and confidence working with animals. From energetic puppies to senior dogs, I’m experienced and patient with every stage of life. I have hands-on experience with basic obedience training and I’m currently working toward my dog training certification. I currently work at FedEx ground. I'm about to switch to weekends only so I can be available mon-friday anytime. Weekend nights could work if planned ahead. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly condo where dogs have plenty of room to play and relax. My own dog, Foster, is friendly and well-socialized—he loves making new friends and is great with other dogs. We also share a backyard with respectful neighbors and their dogs, creating a safe and social environment. I'm always happy to answer any questions or provide updates,just reach out anytime!
About: I love animals and I've had pets off and on since I was 8 years old (mostly cats and dogs). My apartment building doesn't allow dogs, so I can't wait to help take care of yours! I currently have a very playful & rambunctious 7-year old cat named Milo. His favorite activities include cuddling, morning snack time, watching birds and squirrels, evening snack time, and sitting on the computer while his human is trying to do work. I've had to administer the occasional medication as well (mostly pills or liquid mixed in with wet food). I also have experience administering eye drops. I have checked in on pets (dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, birds, hermit crabs, etc.) often for friends and family over the years. Recently, I've enjoyed the occasional walk, drop-in, or daycare pick-up with my brother's dog. I'm working on cultivating some freelance remote marketing opportunities and currently have more openings in my schedule. I am completely flexible to check in on your beloved furry family members. I have daytime and limited evening availability for walks and drop-ins. Note: For your dog's safety, I will not walk dogs in frigid, excessively hot, or inclement weather. (This will depend on the dog's age, size, breed, and overall health). Ongoing need? If you'd like to set a schedule, that would be great! I live in Covington, so I have easy access to the river cities (Covington, Newport, and Bellevue), downtown Cincinnati (including Smale park), as well as Over-The-Rhine. There are several dog-friendly establishments in Covington and I live right next door to Randolph Park. The baseball diamond outfield is used as an unofficial dog park by many Covington residents. There is also a fence around the field, so dogs have ample space to run around without worrying about a bunch of other dogs. A real hidden gem! Currently, my apartment building does not allow dogs. Also, my cat Milo might not approve.
About: I regularly pet sit for friends and family. 1-3 weeks mostly; but can do just a few days as well. Private home with a fenced yard. Dog lead in yard is available. I love to walk! Short or long walks are all fine with me. I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I’ve owned 3 in my adult life. I even fostered a dog for 9 months! It was hard to give her up; but she went to a loving home. I’m honest and trustworthy and dogs just make every day better! I work a pretty flexible schedule. I’m retired so I have lots of time. If your dog likes car rides and public parks…awesome! There’s also 2-3 dog parks not far from my house I have a fenced in yard that's about 70 yards deep. I also have a 30 yard lead that is concreted in (no fear of them breaking lose. There are sidewalks all around my neighborhood for safe walks on a leash. The closest dog park is about 2 miles from my house. I live alone.

Corey C.
“I cannot recommend Corey enough! It is clear that he truly loves dogs and treats them like family. He’s watched my dog Laika multiple times now, and every time I come back, my dog is happy, calm, and clearly well-cared for. Corey goes above and beyond—daily updates, adorable photos, long walks, and lots of playtime. I honestly think she gets more excited to see Corey than she does me and jumps out of my car to sprint to his door. It’s such a relief to know my dog is in good hands when I’m away. If you're looking for someone reliable, kind, and genuinely passionate about animals, Corey is your guy. 10/10, would trust him with my dog any day.”
