Dog Walking Glenelg

About: Cats and dogs have been part of my everyday life since childhood. Today my wife and I share our home with two cats and two dogs — so your pet is joining a household that already speaks their language. I've cared for family members' and friends' animals through house sitting, in-home drop-ins, feeding, walks, and play — at my place and at theirs. Laid-back, attentive, and genuinely passionate about animals. Pet care is my full-time focus right now. While I take cybersecurity courses and work toward a new career in tech, my days are built around home — which means your pet gets consistent, attentive care every single day of the week. I am available for both daycare and boarding seven days a week with no gaps in availability. A typical day looks like this: Meals Three feeding periods — morning, midday, and evening — keep pets on a consistent routine throughout the day. Walks Dogs go out 6 to 7 times a day, roughly every 3 hours, so there are no long stretches of waiting — they stay active and comfortable all day long. Cat play Cats enjoy one to two dedicated play sessions each day to keep them stimulated and engaged. My home is a pet-friendly, well-organized space designed with animal comfort and safety in mind. Here's what you can expect: Resident dogs Two friendly small dogs — a Pomeranian and a Chihuahua — live in the home and are great companions for visiting dogs. They've spent time at doggy daycare themselves and are comfortable and experienced around other dogs, which helps guests settle in faster. Cats in the home There are cats in the household. Baby gates are in place throughout the home to create separated zones as needed, keeping cats and dogs comfortable and giving everyone their own space to decompress. Yard & outdoor time My yard is not fenced, so all outdoor time is leashed. With 6 to 7 walks a day, dogs get more than enough fresh air and exercise — and they're never left unattended outside. Crating A small dog crate is available if a pet is crate-trained or needs a quiet retreat. I'm also happy to use a crate provided by the owner if your dog is more comfortable in their own space.

“This is our first experience using a dog walker with Rover and we are very pleased with Destiny! We needed someone to walk our dog 3 times a day for two days. She arrived on time for all 6 walks and sent pictures of each walk. We will definitely use her again in the future!”

Kathleen R.

“Ryan was wonderful. I can tell she really loves animals and cares about her job. She followed through with everything that I requested her to do. She had no problem at all walking both of my dogs at the same time - which can be challenging! I hope to use her again but from what I understand she goes away to college soon and will return to Maryland for holidays and when her school has breaks.”

Debbie B.

“Sammi was fantastic with my boys! Both boys warmed up quickly and she was great with sending updates and on time. Will use again! Thank you Sammi!”

Christopher S.

“Sophia was fantastic! She has a soothing and calm presence that put both Nuka and I at ease. Care instructions were followed faithfully and I can tell my doggo had a great time. I highly recommend Sophia and hope to book Nuka with her again next time we travel.”

Alyssa C.

“This was the first time we used Sara for a dog walk in our neighborhood. It was a last minute thing and she was extremely kind to accept and even to come for a quick Meet and Greet. She was prompt and followed all of the instructions. I would definitely call on her again!”

Debbie B.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ana was absolutely amazing with our dog while we were away for 10 days. She was scheduled to walk him twice a day and feed him after each 30-minute walk, but she often went above and beyond by stopping by three times a day. She was always punctual, caring, and incredibly attentive. When he had an accident in the house, Ana thoroughly cleaned everything up without us even having to ask. What really gave us peace of mind was her constant communication—she sent regular texts, photos, and videos of their walks, which made being away so much easier. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely book her again. Highly recommend! 🐶💙”

Pw B.

“Molly was professional, reliable, and took excellent care of my dog. I always felt confident my dog was in great hands. I’ll definitely book her again when needed and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker!”

John H.

“Jaeda arrived on time for both the meet and greet and dog walk. She’s personable and took the time to get to know my pup a little better. She asked good questions about her habits and temperament. She was respectful of my home and pup!”

Anae G.

“Elizabeth did a fantastic job with our dog Dipper. She came for a meet and greet and was very thoughtful in asking all the right questions to know how to best care for him. He absolutely adored her. Highly recommend!”

Meagan D.

“Lahari went above and beyond for my dog and I will 100% be having her watch Bonnie again!!!”

About: I love dogs and they seem to love me...cats, too! I am currently looking for pet sitting clients, in my home or the client's home. I live on a peaceful, private and safe property, bordered by the woods and a lake in Brookeville. I have cared for my own pets for most of my life and have also worked as a dog walker and dog hander at a dog daycare center. I have also fostered and rescued dogs and cats. I have an extensive background in unrelated fields, such as music, graphics/video, real estate, property management and working as a home healthcare aide. Please feel free to ask any questions that you may have. Best ~ Mark I can always put my pet clients and visitors first. Outside of working with animals, I work on music, home renovations, read, etc. My home is a large garage that I converted into a guest house with a recording studio. The house where I have pet guests is a private home near the woods. I have over 2 acres where I can walk dogs, plus 80 acres of woods behind the house for hikes. I have security cameras at the property. There is only one neighbor nearby and it is a very quiet and peaceful area. I am completely trustworthy as far as caring for client's pets. I have worked as a guitar teacher and pet handler, various other jobs that required background checks.

About: I’ve had quite a lot of pups in my life! I have rescued 5 dogs from the street and got 4 rehomed! The first who I rescued, Paisley, was thrown out of a truck and I raised her in a dorm room! She needed lots of medicine so I can perform any medical treatment needed! And I also get the ups and downs of raising a puppy! I am a professional athlete and love that Rover lets me fit jobs into my schedule! I have always loved animals so this was something that never felt like work! Because of all my animals here, I tend to go to your place! I can make frequent stops or stay the night! Small animals I do take here!

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have hands-on experience caring for and walking them. I’ve helped care for my family’s dog and regularly walk my neighbor’s dog, a role they’ve trusted me with and continued to hire me for many times. I have open availability throughout the week and can be flexible with scheduling, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Pet care fits very well into my current routine. When caring for a client’s dog, I make sure they get a safe, enjoyable walk while following any instructions provided by the owner. I pay attention to the dog’s energy level, behavior, and comfort throughout the walk.

“Marco has been absolutely wonderful with our dog. He's very kind, and his level of communication is so appreciated. He goes the extra mile every day in his care for our dog on their daily walks. Really really grateful we found him for our pup!”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and understand the love, patience, and responsibility that go into caring for pets. As a pet owner myself, I have a high-energy terrier who keeps me active with daily walks, playtime, and lots of attention, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with a variety of energy levels and personalities. I’m responsible, dependable, have my own reliable transportation, and maintain a flexible schedule to accommodate your pet’s needs. I also enjoy spending time with cats and other pets and believe every animal deserves compassionate, attentive care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I am currently going to school part time, my schedule is very flexible and I can be available anytime on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Weekends. I can follow any instructions you leave regarding pet care, I am more than willing to go on walks, play and feed your pet! I enjoy dogs of all ages and can adjust my care routine to suit your animal.

“Xin is a wonderful dog walker- she's a great communicator, excellent with our dog and timely! She even did some research on harnesses and leashes for us! We will continue to use Xin and highly recommend her to other families.”

Sara K.

“Julia, I want to thank you for stepping up and helping us when another walker had a family emergency starting the first day of the booking. Moxie enjoyed your company and attention and I was able to complete a business transaction without the distraction of worrying about Moxies's welfare. Good Job!”

Douglas E.

“Naedra helped us out last minute. She was super easy to communicate with. She took great care of our puppy, taking him on two walks each day. She sent pictures and filled us in on everything. We really appreciated her helping us and will definitely use her again!”

About: My family and I have always had cats and dogs growing up. Our pets are family! As a mom to 2 young kids, I am unable to put the time and care into a doggie of my own … so I need YOURS to love up on! I am a preschool teacher and off for the summer so I am available and flexible! Other than dropping/picking up my kids from camp, I’m free! I have a fantastic path right behind my house that I always walked / would walk my dogs, if your baby stays with me. I am also happy to visit your pup(s) at their home and have them show me around their neighborhood! Anything to make your doggo happy, is what I want :)
