Dog Walkers in Yankee Lake, OH

“Without hesitation, without any doubt I would have Kelly watch our fur babies again! We have two terrier/yorkie mixes. Our girl is very anxious and timid, especially around strangers. However, at our very first meet BOTH our dogs allowed Kelly to pet them and walk them. There are just certain people that animals gravitate to and just know that they have that kindness about them-Kelly is one of those people!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, but finally in first grade I got one of my own. He was around 3 when we got him and now is an old man who needs help sometimes even if he doesn’t want it. I also have another pup who is now 3. I house broke him and taught him a few tricks. I have had to give medicine from time to time. I watch my neighbors dog who needs medicine. I’m currently in high school. However on Tuesday/Thursday I don’t go to school til 10:20 so I would be back with your animals after 2:44. The other days I’m gone from 8-2:44. I am involved in after school activities but I would be able to let them out before going to those. I will follow what you tell me. I mostly like staying with the animals so they aren’t alone most of the time. I might spoil them a little too much while you are away though!

About: I've been around animals my whole life and I am the designated sitter among my friends and family. I have experience caring for all kinds of different dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! Taking care of your pets while you are away is my top priority and I will adjust my schedule as needed! I am happy to care for your fur babies in my home or yours! I have a beagle who absolutely adores other animals so your pet will have a playmate if you decide to have them stay with me at my home!

About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals Family and friends have relied on me to help feed, bath, and walk their beloved pets I have a very open schedule I can stop by and check up on animals multiple times a day we can always work it out to make the times work for the both of us My home we do have animals so dogs can play with our dogs here and at the pet parents home it really depends on how their dogs daily schedule is

About: I've taken care of different animals my whole life. I have personal experience taking care of my senior dog that was blind. During that time,I learned how to give oral medications and instill eye drops. Safety was a main priority. My house looked like an obstacle course, with cushions and pillows around anything he could run into, baby gates at the stairs, etc,but it was all for the love of my dear Comet. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats as well. Whether it was a drop in visit, a walk, a bath or an over night stay, etc; I enjoyed every bit of it. Animals have my heart, even if they are not my own. They are my escape and bring me so much joy and happiness. With todays society and how some people treat animals, I believe us animal lovers need to come together and give every animal that we can the love and treatment they deserve. That is why I would be a good choice to care for your family member, I would treat them as if they were my own. I currently work a full time job from home. I work 7am to 3:30 pm. I have every weekend off. I could easily have your dog at my home for the day or do drop in visits and walks after 3:30. If I do services at my home, I have a big back yard,where I will have a fenced in play area so your dog can play freely. I also have a large back deck that can be enclosed with baby gates. I have a 4 year old male Maltese Yorkie, I love spending time outside with him, especially in the summer months, so that is most likely where we would be. There is an umbrella on the deck and a large tree that provides plenty of shade. I also have a baby pool that is always filled with fresh water,so they will be able to take a dip to cool off or play ,along with a sprinkler that my dog loves to play in. There is also a long gravel driveway next door to me that leads to a farm that I can take your dogs for walks on. My home is clutter free and smoke free. Nothing is out that my dog could get into and potentially cause harm. For dog walking, I ask that your dog has a harness and a reliable leash. There are a few places that I take my dog for walks. Those include, Mosquito Lake, Buhl Park , a development that my parents live in and a development my boyfriends mother lives in. I am very familiar with all of these locations. Mosquito Lake also has a dog park that I could take your dog to ,if you would like. If there is an area your dog is familiar with and has been to or if you live in a development , I would be more than happy to walk them there. I stay alert and always stay aware of my surroundings. During transportation to and from anywhere, I have a backseat barrier in my car. I am all about keeping my dog and others pets safe, so whatever I can do to achieve that is what I will do. For drop in visits, I ask for details about your pets needs and what needs to be done. During my visits I will treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I will spend time with them and give them the attention they need before I leave.

About: I’ve loved animals(and caring for them) since i was a child. And now, as a veterinary student, animals are an even bigger part of my life! As a veterinary student on summer break, i have some flexibility. I can care for your furry friends at whatever time is needed for you! I will care for your pet in any way that you’d like, ensuring a stress-free and comfortable environment for them. They will also receive lots of love and affection from me!

About: I’ve been dog/pet sitting for nearly 20 years. I’ve handled dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds and have cared for a number of other animals including cats, ferrets, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even goats! While they are God’s creation, I am not a fan of snakes… I have a flexible, work-from-my-phone career so I can manage my schedule accordingly. I do quite a bit of travel and can be available in different cities when I’m traveling! I do not care for pets in my home at this time. In my clients’ homes, I follow their protocol to ensure the animal is comfortable while their person is not home.

“They are amazing! If I could give them 10 Stars I would! Great with my two babies.... A 45 lb Great Dane/boxer mix and an 85 lb American bully. Punctual, reliable, would highly recommend them to anyone!!!! ❤️”

About: I grew up on a farm with a lot of animals, so I have been able to tend to animals both old and young, large and small my whole life. When I was 15, I started my own business back home dog watching nearly every weekend through highschool. I am currently taking classes during the week, which will take up no more than 3 hours of my time during the day. Whatever instruction you give me, I will make it work. I love cuddles from pets and will always stick to their schedule. I love going for walks, taking them for car rides and making sure they don’t just lay around all day. I am a full time student, and currently am not working aside from pet sitting when I can. My schedule is very flexible, so I am willing to work with the needs of any pet. I will follow any instruction left by my clients. If allowed, I like to take dogs for car rides and to go for walks in various places (I.e. the beach, parks, etc.) For higher energy pets, I make sure to take them on longer walks, have more play time, and ensure to get some energy out if I have to leave for a small amount of time.

“Stephanie went above and beyond to take care of our Senior Pomeranian. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. Thank you for all that you've done!”

About: Pets are family, and they deserve to be treated like family. I have doggy sat for a family friend for 3yrs, Zoe, and Zarley. They go out 4 to 5 times a day, they get treats for going boo boo outside. We run around the apartment and play as much as my bones will let me. I am able to brush the furbabies every day, and multiple times a day if needed. I do talk to them like they can answer me…..😂😂. Animals understand more than we think they do. I love animals so much. I wish I could get one for me. But at this time, I am unable to afford one. I will not get any animal that I know I can’t pay for what they need. I was working up until 09/2025. I got hurt at work, and I’m unable to return. I am available 24/7 now. I have plenty of time to give ALL of my time to furbabies now. I have a full time job working midnights. I get off at 7am, but don’t usually go to sleep till around 10am. I do not work Friday nights. My part time job is just Mon., we’d., and Fri, from 9am to 1pm. I have every other weekend off. I always put fur babies first in my home. I play with them as often as I can. They are allowed on the furniture and bed. No matter what I am doing, I will stop to take them out, or play with them. I DO NOT give for babies ppl food, their little digestive system mite not be able to handle it. If there is something extra that you say they need, and you don’t have, I will buy it for them. I remove any and everything off the floors, so they cannot get in it. If there is a special diet that they have, I will just need written instructions on how to prepare it.

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since before I was in elementary school. I have had a dog of my own for 10 years and I have been relied on by friends and family members to watch their animals when they are away. I’m currently a full-time college student at Ohio University, so taking care of pets is more of a weekend or holiday gig for me! I could fit a daily walk in to my schedule too! However you need me to care for your pets, I can do it! I am incredibly patient when it comes to animals and am willing to do just about anything to make them happy, comfortable, and well taken care of.

About: I have taken five different dog classes and have volunteered in the past to assist at local animal shelters. I would bathe, brush, walk, and play with a variety of dogs. Patient and flexible and always do what is best for the animal. My oldest dog is a certified Therapy dog and we visit mostly nursing homes to help brighten someone’s day. I have had a dog most of my life which I was responsible for walking, feeding, and caring for. I love animals and I will follow any rules provided from the owner. I am a school teacher and very trustworthy. I treat my dog like children and may overact sometimes and rush to the vet when it’s not necessary, but just want to keep my baby girls healthy and safe.

I have even fostered a service puppy in training for a service dog organization. I love all fur babies like they are my own. Currently, I am a college student who lives at home so I have a flexible schedule during the week and weekends. I can take care of your pet anytime from 11am-10pm. I’ll do anything from letting your pet out, going on a walk with them, socializing them with other pets or simply giving them some extra love. I am also able to transport them wherever they need to go, whether that is to the groomer, vet, or even a trail to go for a walk outside of their home.
