Dog Walking Dawsonville

“I had such a great experience with my dog walker today! They did an amazing job walking both of my pups, and I really appreciate the care, patience, and attention they gave them. My pups came back happy, and it’s such a relief knowing they’re in good hands. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker! 🐶❤️”

About: Non-Smoker, car owner, long time dog parent. Available for exotic pets (lizards, snakes, tarantulas) when instructions are provided. House is single story with a fenced yard. My experience comes from the two 2 dogs I raised consecutively (now at peace). First was a small poodle named Zack raised from 5 years to a ripe 15. Then Boo, a terribly spoiled poodle bichon mix I’ve raised since puppyhood (see pictures). This has given me experience in all stages of life, including specialized knowledge in small dogs that require accommodations due to disability or age. Previous work experience at ASPCA for dogs and animals of all sizes. I work from home on my own schedule, so I am available at most times and hours, for both long term and short term. For walking as a solo service, I prefer daylight hours. Message anytime, but please call between 10am-6pm. I'm available for both boarding and house sitting. For house sitting, I would typically water plants as well, take in newspapers and packages, etc. I typically leave things as they are or better than I found them. My own house isn't very busy, so it's easy for me to notice if a pet needs extra attention or playtime, or if they're trying to get into something they shouldn't. Stairs aren't an issue. The glass screen door lets them watch the neighborhood as I sit. Fenced yard, clean house, nearby dog parks, and a safe quiet area. In the fenced yard, we have a stone patio and a garden of roses, hydrangeas, and a butterfly bush. A smaller metal fence guards the more sensitive plants. There's a "rest area" for pets that need frequent breaks. The clovers are growing back at the moment.

“Theresa is simply the best, reliable, dependable, and great with dogs. I never have a worry when leaving my dog in her care. I would recommend her to anyone.”

About: Your pup will be in good hands, I will take my time to take very good care of your dog, to take him/her out on walks and runs, play with them till they are ready to take their doggy nap. I will give them all the love and attention they need while they are here at my home. Your pup will have plenty of time to play with my little Yorkie Minnie, shes very playful but also gentle with puppies and she would love to show them around the house and be their companion on daily walks and runs. You will not have to worry about your pup having a good time and going back home to you safe and sound. Thank You so much for trusting me with your cute little puppy! I’m a stay at home mom, so I can be with your pet all day everyday. Starting from 6am till 8pm, I’m available for your pets needs ! I care for your pup with my full attention and joy. I enjoy getting to know them through play and including them in my day to day life.

About: I've been pet-sitting throughout the DMV since I was 15. I have extensive experience in pet care. From taking care of 6+ dogs for 10 days, to watching a goat for 2 weeks, and caring for a 160lb English Mastiff, I can handle almost everything that comes my way. I am able to cater my skills and care towards all ages of life. I am experienced in administering medication, vet visits, and exercising hyperactive pets. I am open to bookings from 1 night to 4 weeks in the Montgomery County area. I am currently a student studying at Shady Grove, Maryland so I have plenty of time for pet care. I also enjoy being active and taking long walks/hikes and would appreciate a furry companion in my ventures. I have classes Monday-Thursdays and am available all 7 days to pet-sit, walk, and drop-in. In a client’s home, I ensure a pets routine remains unchanged as much as possible. If they regularly get walked and fed at 8 am, I will ensure they get that at 8 am. I enjoy spending time outside with pets by either walking them or doing homework while sitting near them in the backyard. Pets are also always welcome sleep on the bed or couch alongside me. Or if preferred by the owners, strictly the crate at night. While caring for pets, I ensure the home is kept up by vacuuming, wiping kitchen surfaces, picking up poop in the yard, and taking out trash.

“Very graciously available last minute to help us with our puppy! Went above and beyond to make sure she was taken care of. I look forward to booking Shaopeng for more services!”

“Amazing! Carolina was so responsive and sent us a bunch of pictures of our dogs. She was prompt and clearly very responsible. We will definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve owned 3 dogs and have taken care of a total of 5, I’m very comfortable around them and always treat them as they’re family. Right now I take of two dogs, a golden retriever and a German shepherd. I feed, take them out and play with them everyday. Make sure they’re taken for there check ups and wash them weekly. I currently only work at my week job only 2-3 days a week so my availability is very open. I also have reliable transportation when needed. I’ll make sure to take them outside to play when needed to, feed them the dogs the right amount and on time. Last but not least, I will always make sure to leave the house cleaner than when I walked in.

About: I've had a love of dogs (and all animals) for as long as I can remember. Though I haven't been blessed with a dog of my own, I often care for my cousins' dogs and cherish every minute spent with them. One of them is a handsome mixed breed little guy named Juno and the other a Great Pyrenees named Rosco. I take them on walks several times a day, feed them, and play with them to their heart's content. They are my furry nephews and I love them so much! I'm a fast learner and a detail-oriented person. I will adjust to your dog's routine quickly. Their safety and well-being is my priority and I will take care of your fur babies with as much attentiveness as I would my own. We will have so much fun and they will get all the love and cuddles they desire! I currently have open availability so I can care for your pets whenever suits you best! I can take them for walks, do drop-ins, or house sit while you’re away. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and will leave it tidy for your return. I will make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while sharing their home with a stranger (soon to be friend)!

“Barbara took my pup for a walk every day. He really enjoyed her company. Highly recommend for sitting, walking, anything pup (mine is 8) related! She's reliable and caring.”

About: Hello! My name is Sky, I'm 24 years old, and I am currently studying to get my Bachelor's Degree in Biological Science specializing in Zoology. I have a lot of first-hand experience with owning/caring for dogs, cats, and exotic animals. I have no breed preferences, and pets that need specific care/special needs are always welcome. If you have a special needs pet, (or a pet that needs any sort of medication administration or medical care such as ear drops, eye drops, diaper changes, etc.) I do request to be shown specifically how you provide that care in order to ensure that your pet is not overly stressed out with a stranger performing different techniques of administration than the ones consistently used by their owner. I have a license and a car so I can provide reliable transportation to dog parks, socialization outings, grooming appointments, and pup-cup treats! I love animals of all shapes and sizes and I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pet. **FULLY COVID-19 VACCINATED AND BOOSTED During the summer I have a relatively free schedule. During the fall and spring semesters, I attend college full-time, so unfortunately my availability will be cut down but not completely gone. During the school year, I would greatly appreciate it if you could notify me or request me 6 hours to one day in advance so I can make sure I don’t have anything going on with school. Same-day requests during the school year can be tricky and I want you to be able to have your pet taken care of, so if I happen to be busy on the day of request/visit I can let you know so you can request someone else in a timely manner. I would hate to deny your request an hour or so before you need me because of school and cause you to be unable to book a new sitter in time. Thank you for your consideration, I will try my absolute best to accommodate you and your schedule with appropriate notice. I strive to make sure your pets get the best care possible, even if, unfortunately, it cannot be with me. **For house-sitting services, I am available for all-day visits, but unfortunately I am unable to stay the night(s) at your home because of my own pets at home needing care. I strive to provide your pets with the same love, care, and affection that I provide for my own pets. I'd love to cater to any preferences or favorite toys/food/activities your pet may have!

“Rebeca was very caring and communicative when walking my dog tilly. We are new to the area so she gets overwhelmed but Rebeca let her do her thing and sent the best photos”

About: I've had dogs my whole life since I was 12 years old! I have lived with senior dogs and puppies and both together. Dog's truly are man's best friend and can heal the hardest of heartaches. They love hard and unconditionally and I will return that for every dog I care for :) Currently my schedule is wide open! I do play social sports throughout the week on different days but can easily be worked around for whatever needs :) I have two cats. They keep to themselves a the majority of the day. Will go outside with a harness to walk around the property

About: I’ve been pet sitting for many years now. I love animals and I love giving them all the attention they need. I am willing to help with pet care no matter what that means. It could be as simple as feeding and walks. It could also be more complicated and be about making sure an older dog gets their medicine. Secretly for me pet sitting is more about spending time with animals than it is about the money. I am free all day on the weekends. I will base my weekend schedule around the dog’s schedule. On weekdays I am currently working from home 8-4. If I need to stay overnight at your home I treat it with the upmost respect. I am also willing to do other basic tasks at the house. Like watering plants and taking in the mail. I know how helpful it can be for dogs to stay in a familiar environment.

“Michele was great with our pup, he enjoyed the walk with her so much! Would definitely recommend her and book with her again!”

About: I am new to Maryland, I am originally from Greenville SC! I grew up there my whole life. I developed a loyal clientele over the span of 5 years. I started with neighbors, their friends, their friends, and so on. I was very happy with the level of networking I was able to accomplish, I am excited to enter a new state and meet your sweet furbabies. I am a full time nanny, I work 6am-9am then return to work from 3pm-8pm. I would be able to provide overnight care, be with them during the day (walks, affection, and up to 5 hours of attention). I don't work on weekends, so I am fully avaliable. I am not able to provide housing for animals where I live, becuase of my landlord. As for in the clients home, I like to come and meet the animals before accepting the job. I meet the pet with the owner present to show them I am safe and welcome. If a written care packet is not provided, I bring my own notebook to document routine and special care. I strive to keep their routine the exact same, while building a bond with your pet/s. I write and keep track of everything ahead of time so when the client is out of town/ busy they will only recieve photos (upon request) and/or emergency situations.

About: For Cat Sitting - I have two adorable cats of my own, Timon and Pumbaa and grew up with two, as well. I understand their perks and how a cat earns your love! Taking care of them is second nature to me and I know I could be a great help. I have more experience with indoor cats and understand they need playtime when their owners are away! For Dog Walking - I grew up with one of the craziest! Ringo was his name-o and he was part husky, border collie, maybe even part chow? A total mutt. I have recently taken care of neighbors dogs who range from French bulldog to German Shepherd. I love spending time outside with the pups and would love help expend their energy with a good walk! I am in the midst of a major career pivot. I used to work in television production in NYC for 17 years, became a teacher, and currently going back to school. I can absolutely fit daily and/or weekly walks into my routine. Mornings and evenings are not a problem. I have two cats of my own and they are super loved and taken care of! For the dog parents, I love them and I love a good walk!
