Dog Walkers in Curtis Bay, MD

“Hilary's gentle touch with animals can't be beat - she is compassionate, kind, loving, and patient, and cares about the animals needs first and foremost. There aren't many people that make me feel totally at ease leaving my pets - Hilary is at the top of that short list.”

About: I have completed courses for dog care and management from Pack Pro Training and Fear Free Pets. I am currently reviewing them. I have also received a first aid certification for cats and dogs by the American Red Cross online course. I have a dog at home but we have family that stays in the home 24/7 to care for him. He prefers to keep to himself. I do reserve mornings for him unless I am sitting. If you are boarding you can request for anytime I have available! dogs must be flea free. We have a huge fenced in backyard. I work from home and will be home 24/7. I enjoy going for walks every morning. I can provide bowls beds and toys if boarding. I always introduce myself politely, calmly, and slowly to new dog friends. I’ve learned some information on dog behavior so I use what’s worked with my dog. The safety and comfort of your dog is my priority. I am very patient and I am neutral when instructing/directing dogs. I am well aware of dog’s need for enrichment and daily exercise. That is what I am here for!

“Nia was so great with our large King Shepherd. She was very understanding and patient with her as our shepherd can be reactive to other dogs sometimes. Our Shepherd seemed happy during her time with Nia and seemed well taken care of when we returned. Nia also communicated very well and sent great updates. Overall we are pleased and would highly recommend.”

“David did such an amazing job!!!! Highly recommend him for your pets. He was able to walk two large excitable dogs with no problem and they had a blast. Thank you David I appreciated you going above and beyond by helping me with the collars!!!!!!! Melissa Stephen’s”

“Coral has been great. We did a meet and greet prior to her first solo dog walk of Pablo. She handled him with care. On her first solo walk with Pablo, Pablo was a bit shy and didn’t want to walk. But she played with him a little and he warmed up quickly. I returned home to a happy dog.”

About: Hi Hi 👋 My name is Kaylie ! I’m super excited to meet your beloved pet! I’ve been rescuing and care-taking animals for 6 years now. I am a veterinary assistant and in school to be a vet tech. Looking forward to making you and your pet feel safe, heard and respected ! 🐈🐕 I’m currently enrolled in a self-paced school and part time vet assistant, my schedule is very flexible and open to different factors during the day. I have a walking trail in my neighborhood which would be perfect for nice daily walks ! I also live close to many wonderful dog parks.

“Emily has owned cats for over a decade and is a very attentive and knowledgeable pet owner. She is very skilled at dealing with a wide range of cat behaviors. She has watched our cat on several occasions and he warmed up to her immediately.”

“Terry was so patient with my scaredy-cat pup, let her come to him and she was even taking treats from him after their walk. I can already tell she’ll be in good hands.”

“Christina is such a great rover and was able to take great care of our dog on such short notice”

“Jacob is our go-to dog sitter! Jacob is a positive and incredibly kind person. He is attentive to our dogs, patient and dependable. Highly recommended!”

“Maggie is the perfect person for our pup! We feel so lucky to have found Maggie. She is professional, responsible, and easy to work with! Not only do we feel that Maggie truly cares about our girl, but she also reinforces all of the training techniques we utilize on a daily basis. Maggie sends detailed updates after each walk, which helps our family to feel at ease. When there was a little pupmergency with our girl, Maggie acted fast and appropriately. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur baby, Maggie is your person!”

“Erica is always friendly, punctual and gets on well with our pup. We never had reason to worry about the quality of care she would give our furry family member. Unfortunately we had to move so it is going to be hard to find someone we trust as much as we have when Erica was sitting for us.”

“Jessica was extremely responsive thought out the booking. She took pictures on each walk and sent detailed updates in the walk report card. Would highly recommend and will be rebooking in the future!”

About: Do you find trusting someone with your pet a scary experience? I understand this and do my best to make people and their pets feel comfortable by being thorough, communicating clearly with owners, and taking my time to get to know their animals, what their favorite toys are, any quirky behaviors, etc. I've cared for dogs, cats, fish, and even birds. There was Ralph, a "tabby" American shorthair cat, Kramer, the shaggy Rottweiler, Norton, the Black lab, and Akita Mix. My house growing up was a regular animal shelter as my mom was an advocate for caring for animals. I've also done house-sitting for a couple of friends where I was responsible for feeding and walking two dogs while keeping contact with them by phone on any updates or changes. I know just how precious a pet can be and how much care they deserve. I have a flexible schedule during the day, allowing me time for dog walking in the afternoon and early evening, usually by 6 or 7 pm unless otherwise noted. I ask for at least three-day notice ahead of time on house sitting. When I'm at a client's home I respect their property and make sure that I'm clear on the rules. I also make sure I give the pets(s) space and time to adjust to me.

“Hali did a great job with my pup Kingsley! Very attentive and kept me up to date on what was going on with him. Will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for since I was 12. I’ve also walked two dogs with special needs in Kent, OH for approximately 9 years. I’m familiar with dog anxiety training. I currently work part time, so I have time four days a week to walk dogs. I have time on these days during the morning, afternoon, and evening. I follow the rules of the home and follow the pets dietary needs. I am familiar with security systems being set before I leave the home.

“Jessa did a great job walking our puppy! She was very responsive, flexible and very trustworthy!”

About: Having pets almost my entire life has given me so much experience in taking care of animals. I have both a cat & dog currently, so within the last 4 years that I’ve gotten both of them, it’s given me even more experience. I know how to administer pills to both cats and dogs, due to both of my animals having to take medications. I know how to groom & walk dogs. Most importantly of all, I know all dogs and cats have different personalities and I’m willing to try my best to accommodate every pet❤️ I can do drop in visits all day on Wednesdays & Saturdays. My hours on those days are completely open, giving me plenty of time to cater to your pet! I am available on Wednesdays, Fridays & Saturdays for dog walking. While doing drop in visits, I vouch to be completely respectful of your home. My focus will be entirely on your cats or dogs. Before any visit or dog walk, I will clarify the pets needs with you.

“Jennifer was great with sailor! I will definitely use her for future walks!”

“Riley has been great! With two pups and a full schedule, we need help with making sure our dogs get the breaks they need. Riley has been over several times, is very reliable, sends us much apprecaited photos and takes great care of our pets. We will continue to use her services and would definitely recommend.”
