Dog Walking Chester

About: I’ve had dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. Over the years I’ve owned and cared for many different breeds and personalities, including Saint Bernards, Great Danes, and Coonhounds, which gave me plenty of experience handling large and giant-breed dogs. I’ve also shared my home with multiple cats over the years—many of them seniors—so I understand the patience, routine, and gentle care older pets often need. I’ve spent years fostering animals as well, frequently working with senior pets and dogs that may be anxious or slow to trust new people. I pride myself on being patient and letting animals warm up to me at their own pace so they can feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. My home currently includes an Alaskan Klee Kai and a Border Collie mix, so daily life already revolves around exercise, enrichment, and making sure dogs stay happy and engaged. When I travel, my trips are often pet-focused—I’ve driven cross-country multiple times with my dogs to explore new trails, parks, and adventures together. For walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I always aim to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel secure in their own home. As a larger and experienced handler, I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs on leash and adapting to different energy levels—whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers relaxed companionship and a calm presence. I’m also experienced in administering most medications and providing attentive care for senior pets who may need a little extra support. I have a very flexible work schedule, and can accommodate most dogs needs! I no longer offer overnight sitting, but can accommodate multiple drop ins and walks while you are gone, start long as early as 7 am and as late as 8-9 ish. Your dog’s comfort and routine are my top priorities. I provide focused attention, interactive play, and companionship tailored to your pup’s personality — from calm evenings at home to energetic walks or adventures at parks and trails. I’m experienced with all sizes and breeds, so whether your dog is a tiny pup or a gentle giant, they’ll receive care that’s attentive and consistent. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, happy, and fully engaged throughout their stay

“Gus, my dog loves you he is alway well taken care. Communication is always great thank you so much for caring for Gus. and I feel comfortable”

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats in a personal and professional capacity for 25 years now. For many years, I turned our home into an orphan kitten and cat rescue and worked with the organization Planned Pethood to care for and adopt out over 50 cats! I've taken care of cats and dogs for friends, family, and clients in all life stages - from bottle babies to elderly and incontinent cancer patients. I have experience administering pills and insulin injections, and welcome working with dogs and cats at all life stages. Tricky diets and particularities don't put me off.. I've seen it all! Long walks and cuddles are my specialty, and I look forward to making new four legged friends! I'm currently completing a graphic design certificate online, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I'm available both weekdays and weekends, as I have no particular set schedule. I make sure to keep dogs on their leash during walks, and to secure all yard gates before letting them outdoors. I keep the home clean and tidy, and make sure there haven't been any accidents or breakages. I tend to stay at the home all day when staying overnight so the animals always have company and any emergencies are handled immediately.

About: I've owned pets my whole life. My gentle composure and empathic nature make them feel loved and safe with me. I fostered a puppy from the Caribbean that nobody else wants to deal with. Within a month, she let me pet her and take her on walks. I train dogs with care and lots of pets! I am a freelancer and work from home. Dogs that stay at my house can go in and out and be protected by a fenced-in yard. I will ask about diet, routines, and special needs for your pets. I will come to your house for free for a meet and greet and see if we connect with your pet.

About: Before joining Rover I mainly provided my services through word of mouth. I have experience with providing basic medical care for dogs and cats, and training experience including potty training and easing separation anxiety. I have vast experience and knowledge on various breeds and their specific needs, and really just love being able to have the time and availability to be able to provide these services. They say a dog is a man’s best friend, but in my case, a dog has always been a woman’s best friend! I offer dog sitting, walking, training and boarding at my home as well. I am brand new to the app but I do have plenty of references and want to make all owners feel just as comfortable as I want to ensure their pets will feel with me! I currently work a part-time job from my home, so I have a flexible schedule and able to meet any needs your pet has. I am available everyday, all hours mainly, and can accommodate you and your pets schedule! In my home all pets are welcome. I have plenty of walking trails and a back yard for pets that stay at my home. I typically will customize the walks, food, bathing etc depending on the needs of the pet and what works best for them and the owner.

About: I have been passionately caring for dogs, cats, and horses since high school, building years of hands-on experience with animals of all kinds. I worked professionally as a dog walker and pet sitter for an Annapolis-based pet care company, providing reliable services to pet owners throughout Annapolis and Arnold. While attending college full time, I also worked as a barn assistant at a large horse boarding facility in Sandy Spring, where I gained extensive experience in daily horse care and stable management. After moving to Stevensville, I continued working as a barn assistant for two horse farms caring for multiple horses. My lifelong love for animals, combined with my professional experience, allows me to provide attentive, compassionate, and dependable care for both household pets and horses. I’m currently working part time locally where I work 8 hour shifts a few days a week. I will work closely with you to ensure your pet’s routine works smoothly with mine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I strive to create a calm, trustworthy, and stress-free environment where pets feel secure, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I am attentive to each pet’s individual needs, carefully follow owner instructions, and maintain a clean, safe environment during every visit, walk, or overnight stay.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. Growing up, my mom had five dogs—some of which had puppies—and I helped raise and care for them. I’ve also cared for cats in multi-pet households, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and creating calm, safe environments for shy or senior cats. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I now have a black Yorkie of my own, and I treat every animal I care for like part of the family—whether they bark or purr! I currently work part time- and have lots of free time! I will send out a daily schedule of what I’ll be doing with the pets! I will take your dog out on walks on our neighborhood trail outside! I also have a few ring cameras, and will send a lot of pictures/videos throughout the day.

“Justine was awesome! We asked her last minute for a walk and she was available and understanding. She took my pup on a great walk and sent lots of pictures! Highly recommend”

About: As a dedicated dog walker and in-home pet sitter with over two years of experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I care for every dog (and cat!) as if they were my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs and routines. What You Can Expect: ✅ Safe, fun, and tailored walks ✅ Home visits that follow your pet’s schedule ✅ Clean water, food, meds (if needed), and lots of affection ✅ Daily photo updates and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going ✅ Respect for your home and your pet’s space I’m trained in basic pet first aid and always check collars, leashes, and gates before heading out. Whether it’s a quiet walk or an energy-burning play session, your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priority. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help make your time away stress-free for both of you. 🐶🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because of how flexible and rewarding it is. Since I set my own schedule, I can book pet care clients around my part-time job shifts and study blocks, which helps me stay balanced and productive. Walking dogs gives me a much-needed mental reset from screen time and studying, and it keeps me active throughout the day. It’s also a great way to supplement my income without taking on another traditional job. Most of all, spending time with animals brings me a lot of joy and motivation — it breaks up long study days and reminds me why I love what I do Whether you’re at work or away for a few days, I provide reliable, in-home care that keeps your pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment. From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and medication routines, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. 🔐 Safety & Professionalism Equipped for pet first aid always carrying a kit Detailed home-entry and security protocols Leash and harness checks before every walk Weather-conscious and always alert to potential hazards Respectful of your home, your pets, and your time 📸 Peace of Mind After each visit, you’ll receive a photo and short update so you know how your furry friend is doing — because trust is built on communication

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is trustworthiness, reliability, punctuality, and care. I care for others' animals just as I would my own! With love, attention, and energy. I’m typically available from Thursdays - Sundays. Please reach out to confirm 24 hours in advance so I can make sure my schedule aligns with yours. I can adhere to any guidelines you set for me while in your home. I am a trustworthy and respectful sitter who will take loving care of your furry family members like they're my own!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young. I grew up with dogs in my home and currently have two dogs of my own, so I know how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to find someone you can trust with them. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly love all fur babies and would be so excited to care for yours! 🐾❤️ I am currently a part time student at Anne Arundel community college. I also have a part time job. My weekends are available. Weekdays I have a lot of free time during the day between classes before I head to work at 2:30-5:30 (usual hours). Safety is my top priority when caring for your pets. I will always make sure they are supervised, secure, and comfortable, whether we are out on a walk, during a drop-in visit, or staying overnight. I follow each pet’s routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and anything else that helps them feel at home.

“Great communication before and during booking”

I’m good with animals and as an eldest sister I have a natural caretaking instinct (as well as being responsible and hard working ) :) I currently am a Ballet Dancer with the St Louis Ballet and have a part time job. That being said most of my morning and nights are available for all your pups / kitties needs :) I am an avid walk talking and will indulge in a run if your pet is up to it! I make sure to follow the owners instructions and treat the pet as it was my own, as well as the owners property and belongings

About: Hi everyone! I’m a vet tech by day and have been in for about 7 years. I love all fur babies and would love to meet your babies. I’m currently working at a veterinary radiation clinic in Annapolis. I have worked at an Emergency Room for animals in Columbia. I do work from 8am to 1pm but am sometime off early. I will take care of your babies as if they were my own. I understand that our fur babies mean a lot to us and that they are family.

About: Dogs have always been part of our family, and I have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a family with three friendly dogs, we understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. We provide a clean, structured, and supervised home where dogs receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, potty breaks, and affection throughout the day. We are experienced with puppies, senior dogs, administering oral medications, maintaining feeding schedules, crate-trained dogs, and multi-dog households. Every dog is treated like one of our own. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Our goal is to create an stress-free, loving environment where every dog feels at home. My family and I have a flexible schedule that allows us to provide consistent care and supervision throughout the day. Because we work from home part of the week, there is almost always someone available to monitor, play with, and care for your dog. We maintain regular feeding schedules, frequent potty breaks, daily exercise, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. We offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times whenever possible and work hard to accommodate each family's needs. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are our top priorities. We have a clean, smoke-free home with a dedicated space designed specifically for boarding dogs, giving them plenty of room to relax, play, and feel comfortable. We have three friendly, well-socialized dogs and always introduce pets carefully to ensure everyone gets along. We closely supervise all interactions and can separate dogs whenever needed for meals, rest, or individual care. We follow each owner's feeding schedule, medication instructions, exercise routine, and any special requests. We welcome crate-trained dogs and can accommodate dogs who need extra attention, senior care, or a quieter environment. You'll also receive daily photo and video updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away.

“Heather was Great!!! She was always on schedule and communicated well. She was very attentive and understanding when my pup had a stomach bug while we were on vacation. I would 100% recommend Heather to anyone looking for a caring dog sitter.”
