Dog Walking Abbottstown

“Lynn was very professional. She scheduled a meet and greet and came over and met honey before her first walk and she was on time and perfect.”

“We were super impressed with Leilani and the way she cared for our dog, Doc. She took him out on a sweltering hot day but gave him plenty of time to do his business and then showered him with attention inside where it was cool. All the while she kept us updated and sent pics and a note when she was finished. Definitely recommend!”

About: I love people and their pets! Most of my professional life has been spent in the people-helping field, and I enjoy sharing my love of animals with those I help. I am very proud to have introduced therapy dogs and equine-facilitated therapy to crime survivors in Alachua County, FL! In my free time, I've fostered over 50 dogs, puppies, cats, kittens, and even a few rabbits for various local rescues. My specialty has been helping anxious dogs learn to trust people. Positive reinforcement is my go-to method of behavior modification, and I can continue your training regimen with your fur babies while you are out of town. I can provide medications and even farm-sit if you need! I've owned my own horse and have cared for goats, chickens, pot-bellied pigs, and burros. I work full-time in York, PA, so I limit the area where I provide services between York and New Oxford. I stop directly after work (6 pm is quitting time) back at your house, then return to spend the night after feeding my own dog. I provide routine meal times, potty breaks, litter clean-up, medications as needed, treats as positive reinforcement, play time, cuddles, walks and other exercise, and if your pets are used to sleeping in your bed, they are welcome to do the same with me! I do all of this in your home so your best bud doesn't have to stress about too many changes while they are missing you. While Rover's pricing is set up on a per dog fee schedule, I cap charges at $80 per night and $40 per drop in or walk, regardless of the number of pets in your household. In the Rover app, I must modify your booking to be able to do that. I work full-time 9:30am -6pm, Monday -Friday in York, Pa, so I limit my service area during the week to areas between York and New Oxford. I can serve a larger area such as Gettysburg and Dillsburg on weekends. I adhere carefully to client directions about medication, supervision, feeding, and exercise. I want dogs to keep their usual routine as much as possible, and owners to rest assured their treasured pets are cared for as they would. I am a background -checked government employee that prides myself on being dependable and trustworthy. I discuss my scheduling limitations with owners to ensure they are getting a sitter who is the best fit for their pets.

About: Hello! I’m Mags (Rover requires me to use my legal name) and I love all animals I have been passionate about dogs ever since I was a child but because experienced working with dogs and cats (and some bunnies) while working for the Humane Society of Memphis and Shelby County. I was a veterinarian assistant for one year and then became an adoptions Manager for three years. This was the most fulfilling experience of my adult life, being able to help animals and the community daily. I recently lost my closest companion, Xander, about a month ago. He was 13 years old and I had him since he walked into the humane society at two months old. Through him I gained even more experience with aging dogs, medical care and many behavioral changes as he aged. While using positive reinforcement training we navigated 6 military moves, life adaptions to aging and the introduction of two kittens. I will take all this experience and use it to provide the same amount of love an attention for you furry family members as I did for Xander. I am currently employed part time and have many days free as well as can stay over night or board animals in my home. I have a very flexible schedule and am happy to work with any client’s schedule as needed. I currently only have two cats in my home, so I’m able to provide boarding for cat friendly animals. I have a fenced in back yard and am usually not gone from the house for more than four hours. I also am available for staying over nights at clients houses for a more comfortable experience for everyone in the family.

About: I’ve loved animals for years and have plenty of hands-on pet care experience. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, as well as bathing and grooming. I’m comfortable with energetic, nervous, and senior pets and always take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs. I’m patient, responsible, and caring, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own! 🐶🐾❤️ I work full-time during the week, but I have several days and evenings available for pet care. I’m especially flexible on Tuesdays and Saturdays, with additional evening availability throughout the week. I’ll keep my Rover calendar updated so my availability is always accurate! 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m attentive, respectful of your home, and will make sure your pet receives plenty of care, attention, and love while you’re away. 🐶🐱❤️

“First time I've used this service. John was excellent! I was home when John got back from walking my Boxer Harvey and I could tell they had bonded! I will definitely be using John again!”

If you don't see the dates or times you need, I encourage you to reach out anyway—I’ll always do my best to accommodate your schedule and provide exceptional care for your furry family member! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.

I have a very flexible work schedule that allows me to take time out and care for animals. I do not intertwine my work schedule with my pet care schedule. I love giving my undivided attention to any animal that is in or out of my home that is under my care. Taking care of any animal has always brought much joy to my heart.

About: Dogs are my passion. I've always had dogs in my house growing up. From taking care of neighbors, to past teachers, friends and widespread family, people know they can trust me with their furry friends. In 2019 I started professionally walking dogs, and explored pet sitting. I worked with a variety of different animals, from day to day, and over night! I have experience feeding (Free and timed), giving oral/topical medication, bathing/brushing, walking, and lastly giving LOTS of love and affection to your perfect pup! Dogs always come first in my line of work! Pet care is something I truly enjoy and make time for outside of my full-time work schedule. I work during the weekdays, but I have open availability all day Saturday and Sunday for walks, drop-ins, and boarding needs. My weekends allow me to dedicate my full attention to the pets in my care, providing plenty of playtime, companionship, exercise, and personalized care. I have over 5 years of experience in pet sitting and boarding, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I strive to make their routine as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe pets do best when they can stay in a familiar environment with the routines, care, and attention they are used to. I provide detailed updates after every visit or walk, including information about their behavior, activities, meals, bathroom breaks, and anything important I notice. I take pride in caring for each pet down to the smallest detail, whether that means following specific instructions, maintaining their schedule, administering medications when needed, or simply giving them the extra love and attention they deserve. My goal is always for both pets and owners to feel safe, comfortable, and confident while they are apart.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs for most of my life, and have done some dogsitting and dog walking before. I’ll admit it’s been a bit since I had to focus on school work for my psych degree, but now that I have to wait till fall for grad school, I figured now is the time to help out some furry friends! I’m an animal lover at heart and am not only interested in, but willing to help with any accommodations! Our pets deserve the best after all! :) I only have class on Monday afternoons, but sadly the rest of my schedule is pretty up in the air right now. I tend to be more of a night owl so I can help cats when they’re more active at night. I tend to work best with detailed instructions. I don’t want to disturb any routine and want the animal to feel as comfortable as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I will have plenty of time to care for your pup. I am available for boarding, pet sitting, walks, daily check-ins, and lots of cuddles and playtime. I have a fenced yard and two very friendly pups your furbaby will be more than happy to play with for hours at a time.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 5. My brother was very active in the dog community and often took me with him. I took care of his Rotwilliers whenever he vacationed and had several dogs of my own. I have been a dog sitter for friends and family my whole life and have taken care of dogs for my nanny families in the past! I am currently a part-time nanny, but fit in dog care in my off time! I only work two full days a week, Monday and Thursday, so I have plenty of time for my puppy friends! I love to help out other dog parents and want to make dog care my full-time job. When caring for a dog in another home, I can easily follow instructions you leave for me. I can walk the dogs on a leash, take them to dog parks, or play with them in my own yard. If a dog has to come home with me, I have a large home with plenty of yard for them to run and play in. I have small crates at my own home if needed. I have experience with giving dogs medication due to my own senior dogs and my French bulldog who has had allergy issues.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. My childhood cat lived to 22, and I grew up with Golden Retrievers, including helping care for a litter of puppies. I also worked as an assistant manager at a large pet daycare facility and now have two rescue dogs of my own. I’m very active and love walking, so I’m happy to give dogs plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention based on their needs. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work part-time in a flexible office role and can also work remotely, while I am building my real-estate career. That gives me the ability to plan my schedule around walks, drop-ins, feedings, playtime, and staying consistent with each pet’s routine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a fenced yard, a large back porch, a walkable neighborhood, and a park nearby for walks and playtime. My two rescue dogs are used to sharing the furniture, so visiting pets will have plenty of comfortable places to relax and feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medication instructions, and any house rules—while keeping you updated with photos and messages. As a former college coach and admissions counselor, I have spent most of my career in trusted, responsibility-heavy roles, and I bring that same attentiveness and care to every pet.
