Dog Walkers in Bel Air, MD

About: I have had a dog in my household since I was in 5th grade. I have always loved animals, and even wanted to be a veterinarian when I was younger. In February 2023, our family golden retriever went to heaven. We welcomed another golden retriever into our hearts and our home in May 2024, so I am well-versed at all stages/ages of caring for a dog. I work from home, so I welcome your dog for daily pet sitting and would have time during the day to walk and care for your dog. I am available for boarding overnight should your pup need a safe and comfortable environment to stay in. If close, I am available to stop by your home to walk and/or let your dog out during the day. I have a fenced in yard and a dog crate available for use, should that be needed. I have a golden retriever that was born February 2024 and she is very good with other dogs. I welcome other dogs in my own that are also good with other animals.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs (German Shepherd, Pug, rescues, Jack Russell’s), a cat, and horses. I currently have a 5 year old Lab and 14 year old horse. I’ve been house and farm sitting since my teens. Ranger enjoys hikes, swimming, lounging around, and visits to the barn. I have experience with the life span, from puppies to seniors, various sizes and breeds. I can take your pup out for a walk and/or enjoy time in my fenced in back yard. I’ll communicate (written and pictures) for check ins. I treat every pet like family. We look forward to meeting you! I work full time and, live close by. I’m able to go home to let pups out for a potty break at lunch and walks around the neighborhood after work, and/or play in the back yard. On weekends, I try to go out for a longer/walk hike. I have a fenced in yard and my 5 year old Lab to keep your pup(s) company. I am open to crate trained dogs, and have various size crates as needed. Two kids (11 and 13) are in my home.

About: I've had dog companions most of my life. I treat them like family as they should be. My neighbors and friends are amazed at how well behaved and happy our dogs are. Looking forward to sharing my past experience with you and your family member. I am recently retired and have a very flexible working schedule. I am a morning person so naturally awake early and eager to get the day started. Our family pet loves getting up early as well and loves the cold weather, which makes me prepared for the day ahead. If I have an early appointment my wife or daughter handle his walks. My dogs have always been well trained, social with humans and other dogs, and responsive to my commands. I developed a trusting relationship with them based on praise and not punishment. My dogs are eager to do tricks for rewards and love playing and going for long walks.

“Sianna has been a great help with buddy! He’s a nervous guy and she was kind enough to work with us before moving forward so he had a smooth transition and he got used to her very quickly! She’s well versed in animal behavior and very professional. I’m so glad we found her.”

About: I have loved helping out my neighbors with pet care since I was ten (over ten years ago!) and my love and responsibility has only grown since then! I volunteer with CFA weekly by cleaning litter, cages, and playing with the kitties while they’re awaiting adoption. I have limited availability to evenings and weekends.I am occasionally available for weekday mornings. Please message me for more info as my schedule changes frequently. I have a fenced yard and no other animals currently. Highly walkable area with close access to dog park if wanted. Am comfortable traveling to clients house or holding here!

About: I’ve always taken care of animals of my own since I was a very young age and for some neighbors of mine as well. I’ve watched dogs, cats and I have also had both in my own household so I know exactly what each pet needs! Since recently graduating, I currently am working around 35-40hrs weekly and my availability is from 6am-7:30pm. My schedule varies so please message me about times if you are interested! 3 weeks in advance is preferable if you need me to take off. Whatever you prefer with your pet I will happily do. I want to make sure your pet is happy as well as the pet’s owner!

About: I’ve worked with all sorts of companion animals for about 3 years at an animal shelter/boarding facility. This includes medicating, feeding, walking, cleaning, bathing, etc! I currently work part time with animals and have the most availability Tuesday, Wednesday, and the weekends! I work some weekends, but am available any time of day when I’m off. I have a car with a dog seatbelt in the backseat in case of emergency along with treats and toys. When in a client’s home, I will provide whatever the parent asks of me.

“She was wonderful, she communicated frequently and took excellent care of our pets!”

“Julia is EXCELLENT—She will ALWAYS be my first choice! My anxious hyper dog can be A LOT and she is SO PATIENT and SO KIND and UNDERSTANDING. I appreciate her help more than she knows. A true blessing.”

“Alexis is the best! My dog Bella gets so excited when her friend stops over to spend time with her and take her for her afternoon walk. One afternoon my girl was getting sick on the floor as she was coming in and Alexis went outside of her walking duties and cleaned it up and promptly let me know what had happened. I HIGHLY recommend Alexis to anyone whose furry companion needs a QUALITY walker and friend!”

About: Hi! I’ve had pets of all kind all my life. As an adult, when I bought my own home it wasn’t long before I started adopted animals of my own. I went to school to be a vet tech but decided not to pursue it as my career. I have worked at doggy daycares, in veterinary offices and one point did pet sitting and walking full time. I have worked with all kinds of animals and loved every minute of it. It makes me so happy and seems to come naturally. My dog Buddy and I have been making friends everywhere we go. I have an Instagram page where I post all the fun I have with animals and updates on your pet! I took a break from pet care for a while but have changed careers and I work part time in outreach now. I am really flexible around it and excited to be able to spend time with all the pets again. I love paying attention to animals psychology and personalities. It’s really so special. So whatever it takes to make your pets feel safe and happy I am willing to go that extra mile. I work part time with only a few times a week that I have to leave home for short periods. So I can do drop ins or walks early in the morning, mid day or in the evenings most days. I love a walk or a play session but I can also administer medication in anyway you need. Im used to having chill pets but have taken care of many high energy dogs as well and know the value of some good play time.
