Dog Walking In Catholic University-Brookland

About: I've had 4 of my own dogs and have experience with new adoptees, terminally ill dogs, seniors, breeds of all energies, and I am attuned to their needs. I've fostered many dogs through various rescues and I'm trusted by friends and neighbors to dog sit and walk. I love dogs and nerd out about all kinds, but happy dogs are my favorite dogs. I'm currently unemployed, so my schedule is very flexible and open. I have one low-medium energy dog of my own who's happy to chill at home or can come along. I'm happy to take cues from you, do you like your dog to sit at every street crossing? Cool, we can do that. Are you working on pulling less? I've helped friends lessen their dogs pulling and I'm happy to work on that or take the walking routes you suggest. I'm happy to give any treats or meds you have prepared and I can adapt to your dog's style and needs.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life and finally adopted my first two years ago! Well before my partner and I adopted our rescue, I was helping out family and friends as a sitter and walker. Whenever I was at a house with a dog, I always wound up being the designated fetch partner. I’m a dedicated caretaker who loves taking my pup around the block, to the park and on adventures. I raised and trained my dog from a puppy and have experience watching dogs ages 1-18! As a dog parent myself, I know how important communication, transparency and, of course, getting pictures of your pup is when you’re away from them. I’m excited to meet, walk and play with more dogs around the district! I work five days a week (M-F) from home, but my schedule is flexible and allows for me to take breaks as needed to tend to my own dog and pop out to care for others whenever necessary. Afternoons are ideal, but I can be available in evenings, mornings and overnight with advanced notice. My dog roams free at home, but she started out crate trained and graduated from there. I’m comfortable caring for a dog/dogs who roam free or are crated and have no issue retrieving them from there and returning them to their space as needed.

“Eric is absolutely amazing. My dog is a rescue, and he’s very strong, but Eric is patient, loving, and understanding with him. We truly could not have asked for a better dog walker, and we’re lucky to have Eric.”

“Nicholas is great !!! My dog is not too comfortable with other people walking him, but Nicholas is so patient with him. Seeing how excited my boy gets when it's time to go with Nicholas is everything a dog mom wants !”

“Thank you for walking K at such short notice!! I just arrived home and was so happy to see that she seemed settled and happy. Many, many thanks!!”

About: I have extensive, hands-on experience in animal care, both from lifelong pet ownership and working in a clinical veterinary hospital environment. I am fully comfortable and experienced in administering oral medications, managing senior pet needs, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or illness. I will provide your pet with a safe and loving environment tailored entirely to their specific routine. My current schedule allows me to offer ample daytime availability for walks, drop-ins, and companion care, so I can ensure your pet never misses a beat while you are away. Safety is always my absolute highest priority. Thanks to my professional training in veterinary settings, I am hyper-vigilant about environment safety, proper leashing, and safe animal socialization.

“Jacquelyn was great! Clear and quick communication throughout, on time, took great care of my sometimes-toddler-like pup, and shared photos along the way. I’ll gladly book again!”

About: At just 23 years old, I already have 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I treat every dog like family, prioritize safety and attention, and make sure owners feel completely comfortable and updated while they’re away. Since I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day instead of only checking in between work hours. This allows me to be fully present for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and making sure every pet feels comfortable, cared for, and never rushed. Whether I’m caring for my two dogs in my own home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship so they feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away.

“Matthew has been walking our dog Chili and sometimes my parent’s dog too. He is very consistent and reliable, and our dog is always excited to see him.”

“Alexandra has been awesome! She’s been great with our two pups and they bonded with her right away. She’s extremely responsive and very detailed with looking after our doodles. We already booked another walk with her, it’s a great piece of mind to have her looking after them!”

Chester K.

“We can't recommend her more! For three weeks we needed help during the day to walk our dog and she went well above and beyond not just walking him but also helping to care for him when he got sick. While in no way did we expect that level of kindness we greatly appreciated it. If you need help look no farther!”

“Great experience with Sasha. My dog is a big fan 😊”

“Lisha has watched Millie in my home multiple times and also came over yesterday to take her for a midday walk while I was at work! She continues to be extremely communicative, reliable, and loves my dog! The feeling is mutual:)”

About: In addition to growing up with dogs and cats, I worked part-time for 4 years at a dog daycare. I'm familiar with caring for dogs with special needs and following specialized care. I also have experience in puppy potty training, dog grooming, and basic training. I love dogs and cats alike :) I work from home full-time and have an adorable 16lb cat named Lily. She is a phenomenal assistant, but could work on her people skills. She much prefers other 4-legged friends to stranger humans in her space. I have lots of flexibility for walks and have a small but mity fenced-in backyard. Lily is the princess of my house, but she is always welcoming to other animals. I often watch my family's dogs and treat everyone as family. I have room to board or adapt to any animal's specific needs.

“What a great experience! My dog was so happy in the pics I just couldn’t believe it! Many thanks to Selam and I look forward to using her services again in the near future.”

“Pauline walked/fed our senior dog during the holidays and was so great! She made our dog feel comfortable, was super communicative and sent lots of pictures, and put our minds at ease while we were on vacation during the colder days of the year. Will definitely book with Pauline again in the future - thank you!”

“Ethan communicated often and well. He showed up when he said he would. He gave Goober a good hour long walk. He followed my instructions and took my water bottle and made sure goober had water to drink. I highly recommend Ethan.”
