Dog Walking Arlington

About: I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 6 years and truly love providing pets with a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and personality. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing, I adapt my care to match their routine. I currently work part-time, which allows me to provide attentive and flexible pet care. While I’m unavailable on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have open availability most other days and can accommodate a variety of schedules. I always make sure pets receive plenty of time, attention, exercise, and care. I live in a pet-friendly apartment and maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment. I’m experienced sharing space with pets and always prioritize supervision, comfort, and safety. I carefully follow each owner’s preferences and can separate pets if needed to ensure a stress-free experience.

About: I’ve had a pet for 9 years. My dog’s name was Nayla and she currently lives with my family. I always walked Nayla because she was part blue heeler/ part husky which means she had a lot of energy. I work a 9-5 job and I live with roommates. I can care for your best friend on Saturday & Sunday. I won’t be able to board dogs since I live with roommates. However I can house sit, drop in visits and walk your dog. I work a 9-5 job and I live with roommates. I can care for your best friend on Saturday & Sunday. I can housesit as well! I won’t be able to board dogs since I live with roommates.

About: I’ve been around pets all my life! I’ve never lived in a house that did not have a dog or cat present, and it just doesn’t feel like home without one! I’m currently an owner of a 7 year old cat myself, but I’ve always been around dogs of all ages and sizes! I frequently pet sit and stay overnight for family members, as well. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 am-4:30 pm, but I do have an hour lunch break from 11:30 am-12:30 pm, which I can use to check on your pet, take them on a short walk, play, or feed them (if needed!) I do not work on the weekends, so I am 100% available to stay overnight Friday-Saturday and make sure everything is good to go before I leave on Sunday! Before I leave and while I’m there, I always make sure there is nothing left out that an animal can get into, and I always ensure there is water and food that is easily accessible to them. A good play session is something I like to do to make sure they were given enough attention before I leave, or, for dogs, I take them on a short walk to get some of that energy out!

“Kelsey has been walking my dog for the past few months and we absolutely love her! She takes great care of my boy and even goes out of her way to get him some treats! I highly recommend her :)”

“Amber is the best!”

“Ozzy absolutely loves Sara—and so do we! She connected with him right away, even practicing some of his tricks during their walk. We especially appreciated the adorable photos she shared of our sweet pup. Thank you so much, Sara!”

About: Growing up in a house full of animals gave me hands on experience with all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I’ve personally owned and cared for everything from a giant Great Dane to a high-energy Border Collie, so I know exactly how to manage different strength and exercise levels. I currently work part time, which gives me incredible flexibility throughout the week! Because my schedule is open most days, I can easily accommodate mid day walks, or specific feeding routines. Your pet will be my top priority, and I have plenty of time to give them the focused attention, exercise, and love they deserve while you are away. Safety is my absolute top priority when caring for your pets. Whether I am visiting your home or taking your dog out for a walk, I maintain strict supervision, keep them securely on leash.

About: I have cared for several different dogs over the years, big and small. I am good at keeping animals company and taking care of their needs. I am willing to bring my own supplies i.e dog poop bags, if needed. I am currently unemployed and would be willing to care for your animals for as long as you need me to. Whether that's overnight, or just while you're at work. My schedule is completely open. My house is too chaotic for you animals to go there. It would be better if i went to yours to care for them. Too many animals and loud people at my place.

About: What sets me apart is my combination of hands-on animal care experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for a variety of farm animals, which taught me responsibility, patience, and the importance of paying attention to an animal’s individual needs. Pet care is a part of my everyday life because I’m a pet owner myself. I currently have a French Bulldog, so I’m very familiar with the unique needs of brachycephalic breeds and understand the importance of monitoring their activity, breathing, and comfort. I’m currently enrolled in a Master’s program in Biomedical and Translational Sciences, and my summer schedule is relatively light, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and drop-in visits. I have always loved animals and volunteered at my local animal shelter throughout my undergraduate studies, where I gained experience caring for dogs with a variety of personalities and needs. Providing pets compassionate care is something I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets during drop-in visits and walks, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and following their normal routine as closely as possible. During drop-ins, I can provide food and water, potty breaks, playtime, administer basic medications if needed, and give plenty of attention and companionship. For walks, I prioritize making sure they stay hydrated and comfortable, especially during the summer heat. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: My phone screen says it all...it's a photo of my dog, the first thing I see every morning and the face I look forward to coming home to. That love is exactly what I bring to every pet I care for. For 15 years, friends and family have trusted me with their pets during vacations, emergencies, and everything in between. I know that when an owner steps away, their pet feels it. I'm patient enough to sit with that, calm enough to reassure them, and attentive enough to know what they need in the moment. Whether that's extra cuddles, a familiar routine, or just a steady, loving presence. What sets me apart isn't just experience. It's that I genuinely care. Your pet won't just be looked after, they will feel it. One of the best things about my schedule right now is the flexibility. Working part time means I can shape my days around the pets in my care, whether that's an early morning walk, staying close during those first anxious hours after an owner leaves, or simply being home and present. Your pet won't spend the day waiting. They'll spend it with someone who's actually there. From the moment a pet enters my care, their comfort and safety come first. I live alone which means no unexpected chaos, just a calm space where pets can relax and settle in. My big backyard gives dogs plenty of room to run and explore safely, and my flexible schedule means I'm never rushing out the door. Your pet has my time and full attention. Trust is everything. Fifteen years of caring for friends' and family's pets has taught me how to earn it quickly, from the animals and their owners. I keep communication open with regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is happy and loved. Whether I'm in my home or yours, my approach never changes: treat every animal exactly the way I'd want my own dog treated.

“Linda was polite and receptive to all information/requests I shared regarding my pup. Aside from the excellent care provided, she was courteous enough to go the extra mile by cleaning up any messes my dog (Or I) left laying around in the common area! I highly recommend her services!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a few years now, but before then I was a part time dog groomer at a few different local boutiques before I started doing in home bathing and nail trim visits! I’ll also offer this to those who have the space available. I can also use a facility with a dryer for heavier coats but would be a 25$ up charge due to that being the cost to use the bathing area. I love all kinds of animals even beyond cats and dogs. I personally have two cats, and many lizards (two dragons and spiney lizards) and fish! I’ll happily work with exotics as much as cats and dogs. I am currently finishing my BA in psychology and biomedical ethics and will be pursing my PHD following that completion! I specialize in grooming and taking care of older dogs and cats but I am open to any! Please feel free to reach out so we can schedule. :) I’m a full time student however my class schedule's set for the fall semester so I’ll know when my time is available. I’d be great for potty drop ins and feeding times. I’m also willing to hangout for a while at your house to entertain your animals for however long you request! I absolutely love all kinds of animals, even the shy or mean ones. Any kind of correction I will do will NOT include anything physical or violent. Most commands and demonstrations to the animal will be verbal, and if I need something better I use a dog correction light (it flashes a two small bulbs fast at once when I press a button. Most dogs will react and calm down and realize their behavior needs correction). All animals will get my full respect on boundaries if their forte isn’t necessarily socializing. Simply sitting in the same room providing them company can be enough for some babies.

About: Hi! I’m Erika! I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with my childhood Maltipoo, so I’ve been around dogs since I was little. I also dog sit for a family friend whose Poodle mix I’ve looked after for since she was about four months old. Now I have my own Pit Bull puppy (Mocha Bear!) who I’ve been raising since she was just 10 days old! Taking care of her has taught me so much about puppies, routines, patience, and making sure they’re getting the love and attention they need every day without fail. I know every dog is different and I genuinely love getting to know their personalities. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing until they’re tired, or just wants someone to cuddle with while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your dog with someone else because I’d feel the exact same way with Mocha. That’s why I’ll always care for your dog like they’re my own and send plenty of photo updates so you know they’re happy and having fun. I’m currently a 2nd year college student and work as a server on weekends from about 8 am–3pm. During the week, my work schedule is very flexible and I have lots of free time to dedicate to pet care. Since I already have my own puppy, my days naturally revolve around walks, playtime, potty breaks, and making sure she’s happy and cared for. I’ll make sure your pup gets that same level of attention, whether it’s a walk, a drop in visit, or staying with them while you’re away!💗 I know leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful because I'd want the same peace of mind if I were leaving my own puppy. I'll follow your dog's normal routine as closely as possible whether that's feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, or just making sure they get plenty of attention. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and have experience with puppies, including raising my own puppy, since she was just 10 days old. I also become quite the photographer when I look after any pup so be ready for regular updates and photos😋

About: From puppy training to senior care - let me provide you with peace of mind while you're at work or traveling! I can help train your new puppy or make sure your senior cat is getting their daily meds and all the attention they need. I work from home so sleepovers or day care is super easy, also happy to do drop-in visits or walks in your neighborhood if commute and schedule allow. I have a large, fenced in yard and live in a great neighborhood for walking, squirrel sighting, and generally smelling all the things. I know what it's like to leave your pets with someone you trust - let me earn your trust so that you can vacation/work/etc. peacefully.

“Ozzy fell in love with Kimari instantly. She is kind and loving with him and I fully trust her to take good care of my precious pup. Thank you!”

About: I have a beautiful female Dalmatian that is 5 years old. I have an adorable male Pitbull boxer mix that is 5 years old. I also have a crazy indoor orange cat and a black outdoor cat. Outside of my fur babies, I’ve taken care of my friend’s and teammates dogs and cats. In the process of watching them, I taught their dogs many fun tricks. I did train my dogs myself on how to walk off leash and multiple cool tricks as well. I can teach your dogs some fun tricks in the process of watching them! I’ve watched all ages of dogs and cats for my friends. From puppies and kittens to senior pets. I am pretty free most days. I have a stay at home job as a manager for my dad’s company. Therefore, I have plenty of free time to check on the fur babies because I can plan my workday to accommodate what needs to be done. I do coach kids in AAU basketball. So sometimes on the weekends I may be gone for several hours coaching, but I will still be able to go check on them in between games. My two dogs are very friendly and loves to go on walks. If you want your dog to have company on a walk or play dates. I can bring my dogs as well.

I enjoy having your pet feel happy in an environment that has clarity and good energy.

About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes. Currently I have 3 dogs of my own who don’t live with me. I have taken care of newborn puppies up until 8 weeks.
