Woof! Downtown Pet Care

09/25/2026

It is hard to believe but this month marks my 10 year anniversary at Woof! Since I started in 2016 I have been all over Columbus, seen so many streets and side streets, nooks and crannies, parks houses and apartments, and met so many amazing dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and people!! We typically only get to really know a handful of dogs or cats in our lives, our own pets. I feel fortunate to have built up bonds with dozens of amazing animals after seeing them daily or weekly for years, I truly got to know and love all of them. They are always happy to see me, it is the best part of this job!

10 years later and I still love it. Can't think of many things I could enjoy doing almost every day for 10 years, but hanging out with happy dogs is certainly one of them. Making a living doing something I enjoy this much is a blessing.

I am so grateful for everyone who has trusted me with the care of their beloved pets, and welcomed me into their homes and lives.

I cannot thank enough my friends who have worked with me over the years, Seth, Belinda, Hana, Joon, Jae won, and Nate! Would not have been able to do it without you guys!

Huge thank you to Matt Goldstein and Ian Estep for starting and developing Woof! In 2010 and letting me take over back in 2016! And thanks to Carol Young for introducing us!

Columbus has an awesome community of dog and cat people and pet care businesses, I am lucky to be a part of it. Thank you all for supporting Woof!

Last week I said goodbye to Piper. She was 10, and we spent 9 amazing years together. She fought like hell against cancer, we tried everything we could, got some extra months and filled them with as much love and fun as possible. As awful as it has been to lose her, I'm consoled by remembering that she lived a life full of happiness, excitement and good times with me, her little brother monkey all of her friends. She was always so happy and excited about a walk, car ride, trip to the park or especially running around the woods at a metropark. I was able to bring her to work with me almost every day, and she made so many great buddies, having fun on walks and running around playing together at schiller and goodale park. I will always be grateful to my clients and their dogs who filled her days with joy and excitement, there are many of you but you know you who are. I have too many amazing pictures of her with all her friends, will be posting more. Thank you to all my friends and family who knew her and loved her, and let her lovingly rub her face on yours after she was done barking at you. Thanks as well to dr. Sears and all the staff at great southern animal hospital.

Piper was one of a kind, a forceful and bossy alpha dog yet also the sweetest and most affectionate companion. She was extremely intelligent and always so well behaved, loved to play and bark but was friendly and gentle to other dogs and cats as well. We were together every single day, in lock step with each other. We could comminicate so clearly and always knew what the other wanted. Those 9 years were well spent with my best friend. The fun we had and love we shared is frozen in time, and we will always be there together, healthy and happy and ready for another trip to the park.

My girl Piper has been having a rough time lately, she was recently diagnosed with cancer in her omentum. She had surgery to remove a mass last week and fortunately it went well! We are not out of the woods yet, but Piper is tough. Wanted to let you all know, because many of you have gotten to know her over the years. To know her is to love her! The whole thing is hard for me to talk about or even think about but I will do my best to keep you all posted, and hopefully share good news soon.
