Dog Walkers in Helen, MD

“Taylor was great working with our dog who get very anxious meeting new people. She did everything possible to make our dog more comfortable and it worked out great. She was able to take a nice walk with our dog and worked with our dog to make her more comfortable. I would recommend Taylor to anyone looking for services on Rover.”

About: I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m extremely attentive to routines, moods, and comfort levels, so your pet feels safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. Most importantly, I'm compassionate and caring. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they need throughout the day. Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening playtime, I’m able to adjust to each pet’s routine. In my home, pets receive a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I follow their usual routines—feeding times, bathroom breaks, and playtime—to help them feel at home. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day while making sure they have a clean space, fresh water, and lots of love.

“Erik was great with my overly energetic lab. Bella was so excited to see him. This was my first time officially using Rover and I would definitely recommend it to friends and family. Thanks Erik for treating Bella like your own!!!”

About: I’m an experienced, reliable, and responsible pet sitter who truly loves animals. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets when you’re away, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am a stay at home mom of 5 two legged children and 2 four legged children with a background in healthcare. I’m here day and night to help with your pet care needs. I have a large fenced in yard for exercise, and a screened in porch. I can set up a crate if needed. We have 2 large friendly dogs to keep your baby company. Fresh water, regular feeding, medication administration if needed and lots of love! I can guarantee your pup will never get lonely!

“Amanda did great with Willy. I had to put off the initial meet and greet a few times and she was very flexible with me. She was great walking with him and taking him out and back in the crate. Answered my questions in detail when I asked how he was during the walk and putting him in his crate. I highly recommend Amanda!”

About: I have always loved dogs and had my own, but I started caring for other people’s dogs at around 13 years old. In early 2022, I started working at the doggy daycare/boarding facility I currently work at, and I am now a manager there. I am responsible for feeding, bathing, administering medication, playing with and cleaning up after dogs of all different breeds, temperaments, ages and sizes, and I couldn’t be more passionate about my job. I currently work full time (at a dog kennel), and my schedule is consistent but switches days every week. I know my schedule very far out in advance so it should be easy to work with! I have 2 dogs at home that are well trained but not very friendly with other dogs, so at home boarding does not work for me. However, at your home, I can work with whatever system you have going for your dogs already, whether that be a crate training system or something different. I have plenty of experience from my current job and can meet all the needs you and your furry friend need to be satisfied:)

About: I am a loving and experienced animal advocate. I graduated in 2016 with a degree in Exercise Science, and in 2021 with a Masters degree in Public Health. Between age 9-18, I was an active member in my local 4-H club, but my pet experience began long before then beginning with my very first pet; a Grey shorthair named Smokey! I have owned 5 dogs, 4 cats, and 3 horses since age 7. Currently, I have a thoroughbred horse named Ray, a husky mix and two cats. I even had a hedgehog at one time! I have extensive experience with many animals of all shapes and sizes. The first thing that attracts me to a person while out and about is their dog! I am flexible and have super reliable transportation (my own vehicle). I love all animals and I treat them as my own. Feel free to ask any questions or inquire about future care of your furry friends! Prior to beginning my current job, I had been exclusively working with animals, management and care, including two farms with horses, goats, cats, chickens, and dogs. I currently work a very flexible schedule, where I work from home 3/5 days a week. My weekends are generally free when I am not traveling for one of my other side hustles! The remainder of my time is open for me to enjoy my own pets and be a resource for other owners who need their furry friends taken care of. I do not offer in home boarding out of enhanced safety precautions with my own dog. I limit how many bookings I have at once so I can dedicate time to getting to know your pets and spending adequate time with them. I will never bring another animal with me for a drop in/walk visit. I am also very experienced in wound/injury care.

About: I’ve had animas my entire life from dogs to chickens, rabbits, a chinchilla, turtles, a bearded dragon, cats, and more! Dogs hold a special place in my heart. I’ve trained with dogs my whole life. I worked at a dog kennel for 7 years, trained dogs professionally for 4, and recently graduated from an accredited dog training school called Starmark! I have also been trusted and recommended by many people who know me well and they have all given nothing but good feedback and compliments, I take pride in my animal care! I am currently between jobs after graduating and so I have a lot of free time to dedicate towards helping people and animals! You may message me with any further inquiries or questions you might have! While I do not have a fenced in yard, I am still very capable of providing lots of enrichment for dogs! My dogs go to parks, they walk on long lines outside to give them a lot of space, we go on sniffy walks, they get lick mats, enrichment toys, mental games, training, and so much more! My yard is also very large featuring a large in ground pool (fenced in) and multiple large areas of grass and lots of woods behind my house! I also have chickens that while kept in a secure, separate area, help keep the tick population minimal!

About: I am naturally a very empathetic person and that helps me care for animals because I tune into their wants and needs easily. I do research into the biology and psychology of different animals to also better understand them. I have raised and potty trained puppies, cats, and even rats. I also love to teach animals new tricks or games to keep their minds sharp and stimulated. I'm a nice blend of layed back and excitable so I value both play and rest with my animals. Fun fact: I raised my own emotional support Fancy Rat who was litter trained and obedient. I have an open schedule. Routine requests are allowed but not required (whether that be weekly furrbaby sitting or daily walks...etc.). I care for all living things in a respectful and loving manner. I firmly believe in positive reinforcement and as-needed discipline. I am fully vaccinated. I have a 4 year old Great Dane named Haven Marie. Haven is very friendly with everyone, she loves dogs, cats, kittens, and more. She's well mannered and the perfect blend of relaxed and energetic as well. She can come with or stay behind on any reservations! I don't have another job or many commitments at this time, so I have fairly open availability and I pride myself on my flexibility with all clients. I'm very easy to work with, especially if you're plans are always changing. I go with the flow. I don't use retractable leases, I walk with a clicker, and I like to harness any medium dogs or larger breeds when taking them on walks, so I can ensure the best quality of service and their safety.

“Caitlyn was wonderful with my dad's dog. She was on time, reliable, stayed in good communication with great pics to show how much the dog enjoyed her walk and play time. It was a huge help, since my dad has had health challenges which interfered with good dog walks. Five stars!”

About: Hello! I have been housesitting for about 5 years now for horses, dogs, cats, and more. I have experience in first aid and medication administering if needed. As well as spending my youth in 4-H and working in animal based settings, I am very knowledgeable of proper care. I strive to bring a positive energy around all animals I’m currently working part time, and I am in college part time as well. I am happy to work around both our schedules as I can be flexible! Any time spent with animals is time well spent for me! I am happy to continue whatever schedule/habits you like to keep your pets on while you’re away. I have learned so much about proper care over the years, and I will ensure your pet is happy and healthy!

About: I treat every animal like my own and have years of experience rescuing, fostering, and placing cats and dogs in loving homes. I’ve worked with ill and high-anxiety pets, providing patient, compassionate care. My passion is helping animals — and their owners — feel safe and supported. I offer flexible pricing to fit your needs and budget, with a military discount available. I am a full time pet sitter. I am available anytime that works with your schedule and the schedule of your pets needs. I do my best to keep your pets on the schedule you have established. I do my best to keep your house as clean as possible so when you arrive home from your vacation or business trip all you have to worry about is relaxing and spending time with your pet

“Leah was a wonderful backup dog walker for me. She and my dog, Yen, got along great. It's so cute to see Yen greet and tell her goodbye. Leah was prompt, friendly and professional. I am happy with my choice.”

About: I have been pet sitting on and off for about 5 years now, mostly for friends and family. I love animals and am comfortable with all care levels that may involved! I am currently taking online college classes and I work during the day most days. But I have plenty of spare time for pet sitting! I absolutely love animals and am very excited to make some new fur friends! Your pets care and happiness is going to be my upmost priority. I will always try to create a fun and safe environment for everyone involved.

“Tia is so thoughtful, responsible, and clearly loves our dogs. She sends the best messages and pics, and goes above and beyond the basics (like scooping poop from our own yard and bagging it). My only complaint is that I wish Rover would allow us to give more than a 30% tip!”

About: I have taken care of puppies from day 1, I have help trained all my parents dogs, they have 3 golden retrievers at the moment. I have always been the person my parents friends want to come watch there animals. I am going to school at Anne Arundel Community College, and have a lot of free time during the day and night. Almost anytime you need me I can be there with your baby. I can take the dog on long walks or through a ball all day if the dog wants too. I am very patient with all dogs and cats.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and am able to care for any type of animal. I am also able to administer medicine and take care of elderly dogs or pets with special needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! I’m a military wife and currently a SAHM so I am available all day between the hours of 830am-3pm and in the evenings as well once my husband is home from work. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly cats who have been around dogs. I am able to crate your pet if needed or am also fine with them roaming free in my home.

About: My family and I have had dogs and cats ever since I was little. My household was always surrounded by loved fur babies. My pets have simply become my best friends and I wouldn’t have it any other way. They hold the most special places in my heart. I love creating new connections with animals. Hi everyone! My schedule is currently very open right now. I am working one Saturday or Sunday a week up in Waldorf, 10 hour shift. Taking off a weekend day is negotiable depending on the circumstances needed. Other than that I am completely available to walk, sit, or drop in on your sweet furry friends throughout the week :) I love to play, cuddle, and just hang out with any pet. Anything to make them feel happy and comfortable around me is the goal.

“Our dog had a great time. Ginny was on time and communicated well.”
