Dog Walking Avila

About: I have been pet sitting since I was in elementary school. Cats, dogs, spiders, lizards, birds, the works. I love interacting with animals and learning about them. I have experience with both young and older pets. I take pride in the scheduling skills for walks, feeding, and any other tasked for you lovely critters. I am able to be there for morning, afternoons, and evenings. If it is a pet that needs house sitting I am able to do that as well. I am a college student and have classes in the midday and afternoon on Monday and Wednesdays. I have church Sundays morning as well, but otherwise almost always available. I have a lot of pets in my home. I have a large Dalmatian, both an old and a young cat, rabbits, and turtles. I can am able to crate animals as needed as well clean up after them with practice from my own home. I am able to clip cat's nails and any grooming needs. I know some pets need more exercise so I can go on long walks as needed.

“Alexa was fantastic with our fur babies as she was punctual and sent us pictures to ease our mind while away! She provided the best care and was so responsive, would highly recommend!”

“Brianna is a great dog walker!! She is very quick to respond to messages and took the lead organizating the meet and greet. She was available on pretty short notice, which was such a relief. Brianna was immediately comfortable with my 150lb dog, which means she is comfortable with any dog! She is a great dog walker and I will be using her regularly!”

“Appreciate Nicole's care and attention for my pup Cassie on their walk. Cassie likes to take her time, stopping to sniff spots or lay down, so I booked an hour walk. Nicole made sure she got the full walk in so Cassie could enjoy her usual exercise and mental stimulation.”

“Jai was amazing. Very professional. I appreciated her communication and timely arrivals. She was great with my dog and I know I will request her for future service.”

About: I have been walking and sitting dogs for over 20 years, starting at age 11 when I realized dogs just made sense to me. I have owned hounds my whole life and currently share my home with a spirited beagle/jack russell mix named Tate who keeps me well-practiced with high-energy breeds. I recently lost our beloved 11-year-old foxhound mix Juniper, a gentle 70-pound soul who reminded me daily why this work matters. I am a firm believer in Cesar Millan's calm, assertive approach to dog handling. Dogs respond to confident, consistent leadership, and I bring that to every walk and every stay. I am comfortable with all breeds, large and small, and experienced administering medications and hands-on therapy when needed. I work from home in central Annapolis, which means flexible scheduling and plenty of attention for your dog during the day. Your pup is a member of your family and I always treat them like a member of my own. I own a design firm that I run out of my home. My work varies as a creative from video work to graphic design and more but it all comes from my home office located right next to my dog's food and water bowls (my hound dog Tate is currently asleep at my feet- exactly where he loves to be, and right where I love to have him). My workdays typically start around 7am and I work through the early afternoon, occasionally in the evenings. Though I have a full office setup, I also have a laptop that travels with me during house/dog sitting sessions if I need to be away for an extended period of time. As my work is on the creative spectrum, I can always adapt my schedule to fit around yours (and your pup's). Whether it's daily walks or stays with your dog, you can rest assured that they will be looked after with love, care, and the attention they deserve. I live in an apartment in Annapolis so we don't have a fenced in yard. Instead, I take my boy out in the neighborhood on short and extended walks and in the community dog park. Sniff spots and local trails are always on our schedule as our dog is high-energy so he thrives on long walks with lots of smells. Depending on your dog's needs and routine, I'm happy to take them on long walks in and around your neighborhood and parks they're comfortable with, or just playing with them in your own backyard. I'm also open to taking them further out to nature hikes and trails as long as you're comfortable with that. I tend to have Blue Buffalo, Newman's Own, and Charlee Bear treats at the ready (but of course that's up to your discretion) for good dogs and I always adhere to any diet or medication requirements to ensure a happy and healthy experience. I treat your dog like I treat my own and I've always had a great experience with every breed and personality.

About: Hi, I'm Hela. I have 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I work from home, meaning your dog will never be left alone and will get full attention. I live near local walking trails in Bowie, have an unfenced yard, and send photo updates during every stay. I treat every guest like my own family. Message me to set up a meet-and-greet! I am currently available full time to give every attention and love to your pups. I am available from Monday to friday and sometimes flexible for weekend care. I have a two level house that your pup can move and play in. I also have an unfenced back yard, and the park is within walking distance from my house

“Kaylee was great with Shine! She made sure to spend plenty of time outside with her and give her more water before leaving.”

About: I am 18 and care for my pets (2 dogs and 3 cats) currently with my family. I have house-sat many for my friends and family. My experience includes: - Walking - Check-ins (feeding, playtime) - Caring for client animals in my home - Taking out garbage and bringing in packages/mail I am usually busy during the day with school however, I am free mostly every night check-in with the pets or stay the night if need be! In my home my mom and I work together to feed our dogs twice a day. I also make sure to walk them at least once per day. As for my clients I have pet sat at their house and checked in at least 3 times a day for food and play time. I have also brought pets over to stay at my house. I do this with lots of caution though making sure they feel comfortable and have a safe space to go (usually my room) to get away from others.

“Jessica and Damon were wonderful with our two dogs! They stepped in on short notice, which we truly appreciated, and took great care of them. We’ll definitely be booking with them again!”

About: I have always been a big animal lover. I got my first dog when I turned 2 years old and did everything I could to help take care of her. I got another dog a couple of years later who became my best friend. Before I left for college he would come everywhere with me. I am now the happy and proud owner of a 6 and 12 year old cat and want to continue growing my pet family. In addition to growing up taking care of my own pets I had the responsibility of pet sitting for a lot of different families in my neighborhood. I have worked as a client service representative and now as a veterinary assistant at an animal hospital and have been able to gain knowledge and experience about pet healthcare and wellbeing beyond the general scope. I will always do my absolute best to make sure your animals are happy and healthy. I love pets of every kind and would be happy to help you take care of yours if the need ever arises! I am currently a full time employee at an animal hospital. I would be available to do drop ins before and after work and am happy to do overnight visits as long as the owner is aware I will have to leave for around 8 hours to work. Establishing trust with a pet is the most important thing you can do to ensure they are happy and healthy. I will be sure to provide individualized care for your pet depending on their needs and temperament to ensure they are as mentally and physically comfortable as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of my friends dogs when they go out of town. I’m the first person they call because they trust me and their pets love me! I love dogs and think they are great companions. I have A dog of my own and she works very well with other pets! I generally take 1-2 walk during the day just to remain active. My flexible work from home schedule makes it easier to adjust to your dogs schedule. Please let me know if you have any additional questions for me! I will follow whatever instructions are given to me by the owner in regards to how they will like their dog to be cared for. I am sensitive to dogs maintaining their established schedules. I generally take my dog on a walk around my neighborhood. Will also occasionally take her to the dog park if it is empty

“Adrienne is very reliable and punctual and Cannon enjoys his daily walks with her.”

About: Hi! I'm a college student home for the summer with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for dogs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment where your pet can feel at home while you're away! I have dog sat for family, friends, and even neighbors for a little over 4 years now! I’ve always wanted a pet myself but never had a chance to so I disperse my love and affection for all pets! I understand that every pet has different needs between playtime, walks, needing a specific schedule. I will make sure that whatever the need may be, I will follow it as closely as possible so that they can feel as comfortable as possible. I believe that communication is very important so I will always provide updates, pictures, and etc so that you can have peace of mind at all times! My goal is to make sure both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I currently work with the government on a schedule where I choose the days and times that I work! Shifts are not available everyday so in the free time that I have, I love to pet sit! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm, supervised environment and make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. There are no other pets in my home and no children present! Pets can be crated if needed and they are not often left alone (if cannot be left alone at all then your pet will not be left alone!).
