Dog Walkers in Almond Valley, MD

“Jason was great, in spite of Raven's stubbornness. I appreciated him coming by for a meet/greet prior to the scheduled day. Photos & updates were great”

“My dog LOVES Elan. He was immediately excited upon meeting her for a get-to-know-you walk. Elan is great with communicating via the Rover app/number. I chose Elan due to her experience with big dogs. My dog is leash reactive and she does a great job of finding routes for him to go on. Plus she could be a famous dog photographer!”

They will stay on leash and all waste will get taken care of as my job as a responsible caregiver.

“Robyn has been a wonderful fit for my 6 year old chessie after drama with local daycares. She gives individualized attention to my pup and takes genuine care to spend time with him. She is great!”

“Elena was great with Jett and was very responsive on the chat. She also took great pictures and kept us up to date on everything that was going on or happened during the walk. We will definitely use her again”

About: I love the babies and the old folks yelling, "Get offa my lawn!" I care for puppies who are at least partially housebroken (tell me your style, and I can adapt to it). I care for seniors who need medicine and/or mobility equipment. I care for all the dogs in-between. I have cared for dogs with skin allergies and skittish dogs who are terrified of storms. I will help your dog feel right at home everywhere we go. I go to college online, part-time, so your schedule is my schedule. I am free whenever you need me, generally within one day's notice. If you need me to housesit, as long you have wi-fi, I am good to go. I live in a townhouse, and I have a cat, so I can only doggy daycare small-to-medium dogs, but we can take walks all day long, if your pup wants! At your home, your rules are my rules. I will follow whatever reasonable instructions you have for your pets. (I can also water your plants and feed your fish/birds/small mammals/reptiles.)

About: Hello! I am Camryn F., I am currently a veterinary assistant at Old Farm Veterinary Hospital in Frederick and am in veterinary technician school. I have always loved being around any animal/caring for them! I can commute and I am easy to get ahold of! I am so excited to be helping those in need of a responsible and reliable caretaker. I do have pets in my home, but they are loving and open to meeting new animals as long as the feeling is mutual between the animals as far as drop offs. Although I may only have 4 years of professional experience I have years of personal experience as I have owned various animals throughout my life time! I look forward to getting to know you and your animal and helping you in any way possible! Thank you I do work full time, and a couple days a week I do have long hours. I have every other weekend off as well as Thursdays. Saturday I have a half day and every Sunday is guaranteed off. I also have major Holidays off. I have many pets of my own at home and often find myself feeding them and caring for them before myself most days! Some may call that crazy, but it’s just the way I roll! I love all animals big and small :)

“I am so glad to have found Ryan. Snoopy , aside from looking back at me, went willingly on his walk. If I can’t take my Snoopy for a walk now I know”

“Heather is a pleasure to work with. My dog loves her and she really bonds with her. I trust her completely with my house. I can hardly wait to have her here again.”

About: We are dog lovers who have loved providing a safe home away from home for our clients since May 2019. Lindsay grew up with a dog from the age of 10 until she moved out of her parents' home and is accustomed to the care, love, and energy needed to make a dog feel at home. For the last decade, she's often been entrusted with the care of family members' and friends' dogs when they've been on vacation. Our home is large, with plenty of room for a larger dog to feel comfortable, 3.5 acres of wooded land for us to go on trail walks, and a safe, friendly neighborhood for street walks. We also have a fenced-in yard, so dogs who don’t do well or enjoy walking on a leash now have a safe, secure option for exercise and play time in our yard! We have a 4-year-old pup of our own who loves playmates, and she looks forward to meeting your fur babies! We are currently home full-time Monday-Friday to be able to give your dogs the full attention they need, whether for drop-ins, walks, boarding while you’re away, or doggy day care while you work or have appointments to tend to. We have a fenced-in yard with room for your dog to run. We have a crate available if needed, as well as a separate in-law suite if your dog needs some separation or quiet time from our energetic pup.

“Kristen is great!! Cammie loves her walk time with her; she comes back well exercised and ready for a snooze.”

About: Hey! I’m a 20-year-old college student who’s been caring for dogs for the past 5 years. I’ve looked after all kinds of dogs — from energetic dogs to senior dogs—and I always try to make sure they have fun. I’m also a lifeguard, but I have a flexible schedule. If you’re looking for someone reliable who likes being around animals, I’d love to help take care of your dog! I am available every day of the week to take care of your pets but am also working as a lifeguard so will need to work around that at times (I mostly only work as a lifeguard 2 or 3 days of the week for 4 hour shifts) When I’m staying at your home to care for your dog, I follow their usual routine—whether that’s meal times, walks, or just hanging out. I also make sure to treat your home with the same care I’d want for my own.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life! And I have been caring for animals professionally for 6 years going on. I have 3 dogs that I’ve raised since they were puppies.I currently have a Pitt mix 6 year old dog named Kokoa, a 8 year old boxer/hound mix named Shiloh and a 11 year old chihuahua. So believe me, multiple dogs at one time is no problem. And I’ve learned some cool tricks over the years on how to deal with difficult dogs. I love running and weightlifting, so I can match your pup's energy. I consider myself an active person so I have no doubt I can keep up with your high energy pups. But I won't say no to just sitting on the couch with your pup by my side and having a movie night. I’m currently back home from college, I go to UMD. (GO TERPS!), and so my availability is wide open, and available for overnight care, dog walks, and drop in visits. I'm currently have an internship on Mondays and Tuesday’s all day but those are the only times I’m unavailable. I am free wed-Sunday at any times. I am fully vaccinated, and am available to dog sit at your home, depending on your comfortability of course. A few years ago , Kokoa had to have TPLO surgery, and I cared for her throughout her recovery and medication administration, so if you have a pup with special needs, I have experience and can deliver! i do have experience caring for smaller animals like rabbits too. I provide scheduled feedings, walks, playtime, affection and any other additional needs.

About: I’ve been sitting for cats for family members for over 5 years whenever there’s been a vacation, and I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs for the same time. I also volunteer for BARCS and take care of animals there. I’m a substitute teacher so I only work during the school day and and therefore always up early in the morning and done working before the traditional business day. I cannot pet sit at my own home, but I’ve walked dogs and cared for cats in their homes. I’m very relaxed and care for the pets carefully by the instructions of the owners and report what went on with the pets and if there were any unusual incidents. I also have experience with pets who have are recovering from injuries so it’s important to me to be communicative with the owners.

“Summer does a great job walking my baby, even in the rain.”

“Liz was attentive, caring and punctual. She has a love of dogs and it shows in her interactions. She took the time to walk my dog as well as make sure he was settled in before she left. We would definitely use her again!”

About: My name is Lora, I have over 22 years in pet sitting/pet care business. I treat each pet with tender loving care, as if they were part of my own family. I grew up with pets and have experience with all ages. I started pet sitting after our pets passed away. Caring for other people’s pets fills my love tank. There is nothing like the feeling of forming a bond with a pet. We have a huge fenced in yard where your pets can run, play, or just take in the scenery. If your pet prefers walks, we also have a super long driveway where they can get in some exercise. Your pet will never be left alone. I are home full time, so frequent play time, potty breaks, and belly rubs are always on our schedule. I provide all my clients with pictures and messages letting them know that their pets are in wonderful hands. One thing we can guarantee is that your pet will be taken care of extremely well so you can have a worry free time away. Since I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule and can pretty much make anything work for a client. My house is clean, pet friendly, and has plenty of room run inside and out. I care for your pet as if it was my own. After being around your pet and speaking with the owners you learn what the pet loves. So I try to include those special items in the pets day along with sticking to their regular feed and potty breaks.

About: I've been caring for cats and dogs my entire life, and my love for animals knows no bounds. My Pomeranian, Dachshund, and Pitbull all lived to the ripe old ages of 16 and 17, thanks to the simple secret of love. Currently, I have a stunning 90-pound Pitbull/Cane Corso mix who is 7 years old. Although I only have my one girl now, I grew up surrounded by a variety of cats and mixed dog breeds. I can't wait to take exceptional care of your beloved pet. I reside in the Eldersburg area and have a flexible schedule throughout the week and weekends. I can adapt to almost any schedule you need. I prioritize the safety and well-being of your furry friend. I ensure that all walks are conducted in safe, dog-friendly environments, avoiding areas with heavy traffic or potential hazards. I follow strict leash etiquette and am vigilant about weather conditions to keep your pet comfortable and secure. Additionally, I am attentive to your dog's behavior and health, making sure they interact amicably with other dogs and minimizing the risk of infections or diseases. Your dog's safety is my top priority, and I strive to provide a fun, enriching, and secure walking experience.

About: I've volunteered at my local animal shelter since I was 11 years old! When I turned 16, I was able to socialize with cats at the shelter, and when I turned 18, I started walking dogs at the shelter. Now I am certified to walk dogs of any difficulty level! These dogs range from puppies to seniors and some have had various behavioral challenges that I navigated safely and respectfully. I pride myself on my developed knowledge of animal behavior to continue to be a pet concierge for clients. I'm currently working part-time as a bartender, so I am very flexible to fit pet care into my schedule. If a client is more than 20 minutes from my residence, I prefer to do overnight care with the pet(s) to ensure they're getting the socialization and adequate care they deserve. I always ask the clients what their pet needs in all aspects of pet care, including medications, enrichment methods (treats, toys, Kongs), walk frequency and duration, feed time, and amount of food. The client always knows their pet best, so I base my care on their recommendations. I also always take pictures of the pet(s) and send them to the client to keep them posted on how the pet(s) are doing!

About: I currently have 3 dogs at my home and often pet sit for friends and family. I have been helping take care of my dogs for at least 7 years. I currently do not work so I have plenty of time to help take care of your pups, whether it’s walking, potty breaks, or staying in your home! While in clients homes, I maintain the pet’s regular routine such as feedings, walks, playtime, and any medication. I also make sure the home remains clean and taken care of, bringing in mail and watering plants if requested.
