About Us
Julie Triplett
I am the founder and owner of Playful Paws Columbus Dog Walker. I graduated with a degree in Marketing and have previous experience within the marketing field, but I always knew that my passion was working with animals. So I started volunteering with A.D.O.P.T. Pet Rescue and helping at events, raising money for homeless animals, and fostering dogs until they found the perfect home. Being a dog and animal owner my whole life, I know how hard it is to schedule your day around your pet; this is why in 2005, I started Playful Paws-Columbus Dog Walker. I wanted to offer affordable, reliable services to you.

As an animal lover my whole life joining the Playful Paws team was an easy decision to make. I have a background in customer service and spent many years in the restaurant industry, but I always knew to help, and working with animals was my dream. I am a very patient person and prefer working with puppies, seniors, and special needs animals. Although I am the newest member of the Playful Paws team, I am excited to fulfill my passion for working with animals daily.
I am looking forward to building a relationship with you and your animals!
Billy Besaw
From an early age, I have had an affinity for the living world. Being raised on a farm, I was surrounded by animals, and the fact amplified my love for dogs; my grandmother raised many different breeds. As a result, I have a strong ability to work and connect with them. "You'll never find another living creature more interested in you"! I joined the Playful Paws team in 2012 and continue to expand my knowledge and love for animals.

GUNNER
Playful Paws has been walking my dog 3 days a week for the last 2 years and I have been extremely pleased with the service. They are extremely reliable and have always been very flexible when I needed to make changes or have emergency needs. My dog, Buck-I, loves Julie and is excited to see her when she comes to walk him. I can trust them completely.

Julie from Playful Paws was a life saver to us as we travel to Columbus on weekends during OSU Football season. Julie comes to our hotel and takes Gunner on walks & spends quality time with him. She came highly recommended from the General Manager at the Hilton Downtown Columbus and we as well, recommend her services and are truly grateful to her.

PRESLEY
Playful Paws came into our lives just when we needed them the most - our one-year-old dog (Presley) was bad (if not horrible) on a leash, with potty training, and both my husband and I were working long hours. When we met I knew that Presley would be in good hands. Now, Presley is enjoyable to walk and even sits and waits for me to put her harness on before we head out.

Playful Paws has walked and looked after Cezar over 4 years, Julie walked him daily during midday hours. We've also left Cezar in her care when we've travelled and have been unable to take him. I trust Julie implicitly - she's had keys to our home all these years - and she's been one of the best things to happen for us and Cezar. I highly recommend her!
