Dog Walking in Ysu, Youngstown, OH

“She does an amazing job with my pup and is awesome at communicating with me when there are any changes in his behavior or activity level. I appreciate having someone who is thorough and pays attention and that my dog is excited to see when I’m not around!”

About: Hi! My name is Ali. I have been a dog parent/lover my whole life! And through that love of dogs I saw a passion! I love caring for others animals- I work part time at a dog boarding facility and day care! So I’ve learned many things about enrichment, how to give medicines including insulin! I have 2 dogs myself that are senior boys so I have experience with the older pups as well as puppies. I’m currently part time at the bed and biscuit inn as I mentioned. So I will have plenty of time to drop in on your fur kids and give them the attention and love they may need! I am very much into giving my dogs the choice to cuddle or give love -I don’t force them. I like to give the dogs the attention they deserve while respecting their boundaries (we all have boundaries and things we like and don’t like) I have learned how to read body language of a dog as well as signs of dehydration etc. As you can see from my services I also offer in-home boarding. So, I will have a dog (or a couple) in my secure apartment. It’s quite roomy- and you’ll receive SO many photos and a personalized text from your pet detailing how their stay is going!

“Laura has watched my dog many times while I am away traveling. She is reliable, responsible & genuinely kind to my fur baby! Laura lives next to a big park so she is able to walk my dog morning & evening with her very well trained dog Nikko. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a sitter!”

About: Growing up I had an English mastiff, a corgi mix and an English bulldog. I currently have a 4 year old sharpei mix that I absolutely adore. I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends since I was 14 and can’t get enough. Some responsibilities included feeding, watering, bathing, walking and playing with their favorite toys. I currently work part time and would love to get to help other people out because I know how big of a hassle it can be to try to work around a work or vacation schedule to make sure your dog is taken care of. My dog has a tie out that he gets connected to when he needs to go potty, we do not have a fence due to living on a large piece of land. When he’s off leash he has an e-collar that allows me to keep track of his location. As far as taking care of other peoples dogs goes I just do as I’m told or whatever is requested. If you’d like your dog to be leashed, great! If you’d like them not to be leash, also great! Put them in a crate while no one is home, can do! Whatever they’re used to is what I will do, keeping them in a routine is so important.

“Kaitlyn did an awesome job with my 2 dogs, who are considerably different in age, size, and temperament. This was my first experience using Rover, and I could not be more pleased.”

“Took great care of my girls. Very kind and trustworthy person.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have always adopted my pets and think it's very important for them to have forever homes. I help with a non-profit group called No Fear Rescue which helps dogs go from foster homes to permanent houses! I am going back to school in the Fall, and I think this would be an excellent way to do something I love and earn money for school. I have flexible hours to help out. I understand people have busy lives and dogs need exercise or sometimes just a bathroom break. I haven't met a dog that I don't like. They are such loving animals that are also part of families. I love outdoors and exploring parks with my furry friends. I'm currently in my final year of college and this part time job fits perfectly. Gives me the best break from the books and flexible hours. I am very hands on with pet sitting and your pets care is my number one priority. I always learn the routine that is already set with the pets to make sure every visit is fun and safe!

“Kelley has been a close friend for a few years, but prior to that upon meeting her could see her love and dedication to all the dogs she has ever interacted with, trained and cared for. Her training and experience is very evident in every interaction that she has with both dogs and their humans. Prior to Kelley, I never had anyone outside a select few family members that I trusted with my pups. From the moment she met them my dogs absolutely adored her. And I feel comfortable leaving them in her hands knowing that their safety and happiness is her number one priority! Kelley is a trustworthy, kind and genuine person. Her love for dogs is incredible. You will not be disappointed in trusting Kelley to care for your pups!”

“Daijanique is definitely the person you want watching your dog! It’s been going on a year and a some change now and she still watches my dog for me when I’m out of town or super busy. It’s a big help and relief because I can trust her in my house without me being there! She’s the one for the job!”

“I completely trust Aylia with my two dogs. She is patient and kind, but firm when she has to be. My dogs love being around her.”

“Ashlee is so trustworthy and respectful! She is very professional and I would definitely hire her to care for my pets and children. She is enthusiastic and reliable!”

“Christine is such a compassionate person and has a beautiful way of caring for animals and humans! Seeing her in action with my puppy and all that she teaches me reminds me of a true animal whisperer. She has extensive knowledge of animals, their needs and takes the time to get to know other pets and share insight with their owners. She has multiple years of experience caring for her own pets, including, dogs, cats and even pigs over the years. She is reliable, respectful, communicative and trustworthy. Anyone would be lucky to have her taking care of their precious fur babies!”

About: I have been dealing with dogs since I was young. I currently have one dog. I have trained him to be well mannered and behaved since they were puppies. I also have dealt with giving medication and other medical issues with multiple dogs. I have cared for many of my family and friends animals to allow them to travel and enjoy what they want to enjoy without being stressed about the animals at home. I am currently working as a server at a local family owned restaurant. I can always work my schedule around giving your animals time to go out and have company. I have my own car so I will be able to go wherever need be. I also always make sure my dogs are taken care of before I do anything extra. My mother and sister will also be available in case of any emergencies.

“One will never find a more caring and loving person than Shelly. She is my niece and I've known her since birth. She has always had pets and took excellent care of them as a child, never lost interest in their care and well-being. She is very well versed in dog/cat behaviors and medical needs. Shelly is the only person I trust to care for my dog, 3 cats and bunny. You will feel very comfortable and at ease when you meet her and your pet will fall in love with her. Her commitment and responsibility to your pet is her greatest asset.”

“Heather dog sat for our family this summer. We have a 110 LB pit bull who is very loving with all the energy of a 2-year-old pitty. Heather was great with her, reliable and thanks to her we could enjoy our time away from home (5 days). Heather came to our home several times during the day to feed and let our dog out. We have a fenced in yard, where she hung out with our pup and played fetch and tug of war with her. she was wonderful and we definitely plan on having her back for our next long weekend away. I would recommend Heather to anyone looking for help with their furry family. she is prompt, trustworthy and most of all very caring with animals (and even enjoyed the jump-up full face kisses our pup gives).”

“I have known Melissa for 10+ years and she has always been a helpful caring person! As long as I can remember she’s always been a nurturing hand in either her own pet’s lives or as a friend/family member, being there wholeheartedly.”

“She was awesome with my little guy. At first he was being a stinker and hid under the bed and barked, I told her she could go and not worry about it. Then I get a picture message of him walking outside fine. Definitely took the time and had the patience to work with Orion to build that trust. Definitely, definitely highly recommend. She is amazing!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all different breeds and I give them all the love they deserve! I enjoy bringing fur babies on walks, giving baths, etc. Your pets deserve the best care and I can promise they’ll think of me as a new best friend :) Currently I am in school and work part time. I’m available after 5:30 Tuesdays-Fridays, after 3:30 on Saturdays, and all day Sunday and Monday depending on my work schedule😊 I can easily put a leash/harness on any dog and can crate them if needed! I will clean up after them with any mess made and I will make sure they’re completely happy and safe at all times.

“Sarah has been taking care of my dog Sable for 3 years. She is great with Sable and Sable loves her days with Sarah. I never have to worry about Sable being alone while I'm at work for 12 hours. Thank you Sarah!!”

“Mia is a loving, compassionate pet owner, herself. She has also worked for a doggie daycare center and was praised often for her love and attention she gave the animals. She seems to have a way with all animals; they love her and she loves them. She is also a very reliable, responsible, and honest person. She is one of the few people I would trust to care for my dog.”
