“The road to my heart is filled with paw prints”

I’m a proud mom of 3 teenagers, and 3 dogs. My family and I recently moved to Cincinnati from Indianapolis, where I began working for Wag. Wag has been such a fun experience for me. I have loved and bonded with every dog that I have walked. Before working for Wag, I worked as a kennel attendant and front desk receptionist at an animal hospital, where I walked, fed and distributed medications to all the boarding animals. My heart is with all dogs.

“I'll treat your pet as if it were my own!”

Hello, I'm Chad...an avid animal lover! Especially dogs because they are incredible creatures. I've recently started to train to be a certified dog trainer and I believe working with wag will accelerate my training. I walk my dog and my friend's dog 2 to 4 miles per day and have noticed how much better they are throughout the rest of the day with proper exercise. I'm very excited for the opportunity to do this for as many dogs as possible.

Dog Walking in Burlington

Burlington is a special place for dog-lovers and their canine companions, offering many options for activities that doggos love. It is located only 16 miles from Cincinnati and its dog-friendly resources, but it is locally that Fido-focused humans will find pristine parks and walking trails. This is a suburban-to-rural city, and the open spaces have been dotted with opportunities for fresh air and exercise. And with one animal hospital and several more within a 10-mile drive from downtown Burlington, you can be sure Fido will stay healthy, happy and ready to go.

Take your pup to the Gunpowder Creek Nature Park, which features 223 wooded acres full of wildlife and forest. An unpaved 1.25 miles of hiking trails have been reclaimed out of an 1800s logging road, which end near Gunpowder Creek at a stone seating area. The trails have been described as difficult, so be sure to take water and other wilderness hiking gear along. With your canine companion on leash, exploring this park will be a real adventure! When you’re ready to rest, check out the shelter, complete with electricity and water.

Another popular walking park is the England/Idlewild Park that features 2 paved trails measuring a total of almost 2 miles of easy to moderate hiking. Fishing enthusiasts flock to Idlewild because of the park’s large lake and 2 small ponds that are stocked annually with fish. This 190-acre park offers wooded and open areas, along with wetlands. The icing on the cake for dog lovers and their canine pals is the adjacent Boone County Dog Park, where a pent-up, bored dog can become a tired, happy dog. The park has 2 separate fenced areas for large and small dogs, each featuring a double-gated system, benches and a shelter for the humans. People and doggos have their own dedicated water fountains, and shade trees are in abundance. Woof-derful!
