Dog Walkers in Hereford, MD

About: I am a local Hereford Zone mom available to help walk, check-in on, or watch your pet. I will give them the attention, love, and patience. I do not train animals but will be consistent with whatever training you want me to uphold. I am flexible and happy to help in anyway I can. I work from home and my schedule is flexible to pop in and out and check in on your pets whenever you need me to. I am a responsible adult that will respect your space and home when I come to look after your pets. If needed, I have a fenced in yard than you pet is welcome to use if needed.

About: I've been taking care of animals ranging from large dogs, kittens and cats, hamsters, and even goats my entire life, whether its feeding, walking, or even just hanging out with. I'm happy to work with young animals all the way up to seniors and provide any unique care they may need! I am the biggest animal lover and can make sure your pet will feel loved and cared for. I am currently home on summer break and have lots of availability. I occasionally will be away for a long weekend at the beach, but I am available otherwise for quick check ins, overnight stays, or whatever is needed. I have plenty of cat toys, bowls, beds, and space for your pets to make themself comfortable in. I would typically prefer to come to your home for dogs but will be able to accommodate if that is not possible for you!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs for most of my life, and have done some dogsitting and dog walking before. I’ll admit it’s been a bit since I had to focus on school work for my psych degree, but now that I have to wait till fall for grad school, I figured now is the time to help out some furry friends! I’m an animal lover at heart and am not only interested in, but willing to help with any accommodations! Our pets deserve the best after all! :) I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I have plenty of time for any pet care. I tend to be more of a night owl so I can help cats when they’re more active at night. I tend to work best with detailed instructions. I don’t want to disturb any routine and want the animal to feel as comfortable as possible.

“Emily arrived on time and was so friendly and warm greeting Sadie. She definitely provided Sadie a great walk and rewarding experience. I would definitely use Emily again?”

“Brian took great care of my girl, Lemon! He made sure the plan for Lem was super clear beforehand, which I especially appreciated since the schedule I gave him to complement my friend's visit schedule was not perfectly regular, and he didn't miss a visit! He also had to deal with a terrible cold spell, but when he couldn't walk Lemon for more than 5 minutes at a time (about all she can tolerate when it's that cold), he took her for two short walks to make sure she did all her business and then played ball with her in the house. We came home to a dog who, while happy to see us, was clearly doing just fine without us, which is all I can ask for :)”

About: When I am home from school, I live with 2 dogs and 4 cats. My mother frequently fosters dogs from all different walks of life, so I am used to adapting to many unique circumstances! Wether your dog is out going or never leaves their crate, I’m your girl for every kind of care! I am a home body, so with the exception of the classes I have (only Tuesday through Thursday) I am always around! Having animals gives me a sense of motivation, I love knowing I’m starting and ending my day by caring for a pet. I miss my puppies while I’m away at school and can’t wait to give yours all the love I have built up! I love having a buddy to hang out with while I am doing homework, making dinner, or relaxing watching TV. I love a good schedule and will make sure your dog feels as good as possible following the same routine with me!

About: I bring a combination of reliability, experience, and genuine love for animals that sets me apart from other sitters. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets with special needs. I am trained in providing medication administration, gentle handling for anxious pets, and creating structured routines to keep pets happy and healthy. My attention to detail ensures that every pet receives individualized care, and I communicate regularly with owners to give updates and peace of mind. Whether it’s playtime, training support, or senior pet care, I tailor my approach to meet each animal’s unique needs. I work full-time during the weekdays, but I am available evenings and on weekends to provide care for your pets. During these times, I dedicate focused attention to feeding, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I can follow your pet’s specific routines and make sure they receive the care and interaction they need while maintaining a structured schedule that keeps them happy and comfortable. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed and happy. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, engage in playtime and exercise, and offer plenty of affection and attention. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I treat the space and pets with respect, following all owner instructions carefully. I maintain routines as directed, ensure pets have fresh water and food, and provide companionship and exercise. I also keep the owner updated with regular messages or photos, so they feel confident their pets are safe and well-cared for while they’re away.

About: Let us offer you the peace of mind you need if you're out of town on business, on vacation, or just at the office. We comfort your canine & feline friends during the day, so when you arrive home everyone can begin relaxing right away. We are truly "animal people". No kids, married for over 40 years and living on a small farm in White Hall where we care for our menagerie of 4 legged friends. We know first hand how hard it is to find reliable help to look after our animals and the farm when we need to leave for anything more than a long day. Our alpacas are registered breeding stock and the guineas are for general amusement. But, the cats and dogs are all rescues, receive regular vet care and are fed on a routine schedule. We care deeply about their well being, nurse them like children when they are sick and spend a great deal of time and effort keeping them healthy and happy. We are regulars with our local vet and feed mill and know the area well. Hard work and long days are par for the course for us. Our common sense is well polished and we pay great attention to detail and feel quality communication is key to any relationship. We have been renovating a small farm house for many years, a work in progress as they say. We like to do business in the local community and are now in a position to offer our experience to the pet owners in our area. We are professional without being stuffy and want all animals to enjoy a high quality of life. As a full time photographer, I work in my studio most days and sometimes weekends too. Pets are either with me in the studio, or in the house with us at night. Your dogs join me in the studio on days I am working there, and they'll have one feline companion. I enjoy dogs that are laid back and my husband enjoys energetic dogs. Together with all that goes on at the farm, owners always tell us they are very relaxed when they go home.

“Alicia did a phenomenal job! She was very communicative, punctual, professional, and took some great photos of our dog on his walk. We will definitely be requesting her services in the future. We were happy that Jett did all his tricks and commands for her 😀”

About: Hello, I’m Sabrina! I have always been involved in animal care spaces. I volunteered as a behavior volunteer for several years at Friends For Life Animal Shelter, where I learned about canine and feline behavior. I am certified in canine and feline CPR and first aid through PetTech! Your furry friend is always safe with me! Last summer, I worked as a canine care attendant at The Barking Muse where I walked dogs, monitored day care, facilitated activities and basic training, and cared for our boarders! I’d love to continue my pet care journey with you! Currently, I’m a college student home for the summer, so my schedule is wide open! I’d love to fill my time by providing quality pet care! I always meet the pet where they’re are at. I will never force a pet to anything it doesn’t want to and believe in understanding their behavior and boundaries. Through this method I’ve successfully addressed anxiety in both cats and dogs and formed meaningful connections!

“Bryan was great with my dogs during their walks. He was reliable, on time, and easy to communicate with. My dogs came back happy and well exercised, and it was clear they were comfortable with him. This guy doesn’t miss. I’d definitely use Bryan again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”

About: My love for dogs started in my parents home. We had 3 different dogs growing up. I had a pet for 5 years. Be a pack leader and place pet safety 1st with a great dog walking or sitter experience. Don't have a dog now but love watching AKC competition and westminster dog show . Starting to jog now and can orient dog into the jogging routine. I have room in my large condo 1200 square feet. HVe dog bowl for water and food. Have a big green area around building to walk and jog.

About: My family raised litters of puppies growing up. Coming home from school at ages as young as 6 years old, I would walk into a home with as many as a 12 labrador puppies (+ our 2-3 full grown labs) at a time. I helped my mother with cleaning them, cleaning their messes, and watching them carefully when we took them outside to begin potty training. Once I was older, I began professionally dog walking and pet sitting. In high school, I had 3 families whose pets I consistently cared for, sometimes for weeks at a time while they were on vacation, in addition to simultaneously caring for my 3 dogs and 1 cat at home. Caring for pets has been an integral part of my life for (literally) as long as I can remember. I typically work 4-8.5 hour shifts at my job in Timonium, MD. I work only part-time, so I do not work every day, but it is important to note that if your fur babies need potty breaks every 4 hours or less, I might not be the most compatible sitter for you. I usually receive my work schedule two weeks in advance on Fridays or Saturdays. I always want to cater to the pet’s routine and make the transition of care as seamless as possible. I pay great attention to how long their usual walk is, how often they need to spend time outside, how much food they are to be given and at what times of day. The comfort of the pet (and thereby the owner) is my absolute top priority.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple different animals including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and bunnies. I have experience with young kittens, even syringe or bottle feeding. I’m a fast learner and love all animals and I would be happy to take care of your beloved pets! Home from college for the summer with all the time on the world to take care of your animals! Any day or time works for me! I will play, pet, and cuddle your pets all day long! I love going on walks and enjoying the fresh air with your furry friends!

“Fantastic! I highly recommend Jamie!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life — I grew up in a home full of pets and was responsible for their daily care from a young age. As an adult, I’ve always had animals (dogs and cats) of my own and have experience with pets at every life stage. Most recently, I lovingly cared for my senior dog who passed away at 17, so I’m very familiar with the patience and attention that older dogs often need. I’m active and love going for walks, but I’m just as happy to relax and keep a pet company. I’m responsible, punctual, and committed to following your pet’s routine closely. I currently have one dog of my own and am fostering another. I I currently work part-time, Tues-Thursday. I'm available for walks or check-ins Friday-Monday. During my breaks (I work at a school), like holidays and the summer, I am available any day! I can also do evenings Tues-Thursday. I offer care in my clients homes - both check-ins and walks. My own house is a bit chaotic with kids and animals, so I'm not offering care in my own home. I will be diligent in following all instructions when taking care of your pets and will also be respectful of your home!

“This was Connor's first visit with our girls Kiwi and Rio. He was on time, followed protocols and communicated promptly. Very happy about all 3 of those things! We have scheduled another visit soon.”

About: Being a part of the pet community myself, I understand what kind of care you want your fluffy friend to have. I have experience caring for small, medium and large dogs, having an English Shepherd myself, along with being able to care over cats! Family, friends, and neighbors have asked me to care for their furry friends by either staying with them when they went on vacations, or even just stopping by for a quick trip around the block! Whatever your pet needs I am pretty willingly to do. My summers are free which allow me to put all my energy into caring for your animal. Having my own animal at home, I understand the need to frequently check in even when I have errands to run. I would treat your pet like he/she was my own! My dog at home was crate trained, but we now have allowed him to wonder the house a little more. That being said, I can easily get a dog into a crate or whatever suits the animals needs. I also have a friendly indoor/outdoor cat who comes and go as he pleases. Along with him we have a strictly indoor cat, so I am very good at paying attention of the flow of traffic within the house.
