“Dog Time is Happy Time”
Hello! I'm Angie and I‘m the ultimate dog lover. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and spent many hours dog-sitting for others. I currently have three dogs - 100 pound pit mix, 40 pound springer spaniel/lab mix and an 11 pound chihuahua/papillon mix - so I have experience with all different sizes and personalities. I’ve raised them all from puppy stage, so I also have a lot of experience with each doggy stage.

“Pup need a potty break? I got this! ❤🐕🐶”
Hi, it's Tracy, your friendly WAG walker here. I’ve been walking with WAG for almost 4 years now. It’s definitely the most fun/rewarding job ever. I love meeting all the new dogs and taking them on an adventure (that’s dog speak for walk...lol). I also volunteer walking dogs at Columbus Humane (over 14 years) and that's where I adopted my two Chihuahuas. I know you cherish your fur babies and I will take care of them as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet and get to know them!

“Your pets are part of my family!!”
I have completed my pet first aid/ CPR certificate and I am working on my certificate towards a canine specialist. I am a dog lover by nature and have had many years of experience with them as well. I have had many dogs of my own and I have worked in a pet store that worked with local vets and groups that offered puppy classes. I love spending time with many animals and giving them love. I look forward to spending time with your pet and treating them as one of my family while you are away.

“Dedicated dog lover!”
I'm a life-long dog lover, and I spent last summer caring for them at a doggie day care. I often spent 14 hours a day there, making sure dogs were fed, walked and happy! Big, small, they're all just puppies to me!

Hi, I'm Jay, a social worker from Columbus OH. In addition to my MSW, I'm currently working on a certification for "veterinary social work" (i.e., connecting clients with service animals, helping pet owners and veterinary workers deal with pet loss, etc.). In addition to my cat Rey (a.k.a "Squeakers") I enjoy being the go-to guy to sit for the pets of my friends and family. I'm excited to be a WAG walker in my spare time and I look forward to meeting you and looking after your furry friend!

If I were asked what makes me the most happy in this world, I would answer with "dogs," without hesitation. There's just something about the smile on a dog's face that brings me utter joy. I have been working with dogs professionally since I was 16, and wish I had started sooner. I have dealt with animals under stressful situations: from hyperactivity, to refusal of cooperation/stubbornness, to literal life or death occurrences, so I know that I can handle any personality that gets thrown at me!

“Let’s go for a walk!”
Hey! I’m Stephanie and I can’t wait to meet your dog! I’m a full time wedding photographer with my boyfriend, but that leaves me with tons of time during the week to have fun with your nuggets! I volunteered at a shelter as a kid and have loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I have one rescue nugget of my own, but he’s very understanding with my love for all dogs and doesn’t get too jealous. I have experience watching and walking dogs of all shapes and sizes - including a pack of 5 Danes!
