Dog Walkers in Leisure World, MD

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I bring that same love and dedication to every pet I care for. I have two dogs of my own—one senior and one younger—so I understand the different needs pets have at various life stages. Whether it’s providing extra care and comfort for senior pets or keeping energetic pups engaged, I tailor my approach to each pet’s personality and needs. I even got married on a petting farm to incorporate animals into one of the most special days of my life! That love and appreciation for animals extend into my pet-sitting, where I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience with basic training, senior pet care, and understanding animal behavior, ensuring a safe and happy experience for both pets and their owners. With me, your pets will not only be well cared for, but they’ll also receive plenty of love, attention, and enrichment while you’re away! Since animals are such an important part of my life, pet care is naturally woven into my daily routine. As a pet parent myself to two wonderful dogs (one senior and one younger), I understand the importance of structure, love, and attention in their daily lives. Every day, I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection—whether it’s morning walks, playtime, or quiet cuddle sessions. I’m also experienced in managing different feeding schedules, administering medication if needed, and providing specialized care for pets with unique needs. When pet-sitting, I prioritize maintaining each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m caring for my own dogs or looking after someone else’s beloved pet, I treat them like family, making pet care a consistent and fulfilling part of my week. When caring for pets in their own home, I strive to make them feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I follow their usual schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any necessary medication. I also provide companionship to ease any separation anxiety, ensuring they feel loved and secure. While in a client’s home, I respect their space and can also assist with small tasks like bringing in mail or watering plants to help maintain their home while they’re away. Regardless of where I care for pets, my goal is always to provide reliable, loving, and attentive care, treating every pet like they’re my own.

“Jason is beyond wonderful with our new pup, as well as very friendly and kind. He's accommodating to our changes as we settle into a routine. We're looking forward to ongoing walks!”

“Malek is a dog whisperer! He was wonderful with our Australian shepherd puppy - who has a lot of energy and love to give! Malek took her on some great walks, and she was actually tired after! Thank you so much, Malek!”

About: I’m not booking males over 25 pounds ( my dog doesn’t get along with them). I grew up surrounded by dogs. I’ve learned to take care and love them since I was a child. As a teenage and young adult I took care of friends and family pets when they were traveling. I also love taking pictures of pets, since I’m passionate about dogs and also about photography. I’ve just moved to United States because of my husband job, currently working at the Brazilian embassy. My time is divided by taking care of my 2 year old boy , that also loves dogs, and also cleaning and organizing the house. Now that I just got my work permit I would love to start working with something that I love. I’ll take care of your dog respecting all your directions. I’ll take a bunch of pictures of your puppy, take them to a walk, play with them and, of course, spoil them ( If authorized). In my house they are allowed in the bed, at the couch and wherever I go.

“Our pup loved having Anton visit and walk her while we were out of town! We also had a neighbor drop things off which he brought inside for us. We will definitely have him help us again with our pup. Thank you, Anton!”

About: My family has had large and medium size dogs for over 15 years. I have 10 years of experience, pet sitting for neighbors. I enjoy both playful and quiet dogs. I am a retired teacher and I’m available with advanced notice seven days a week. I am available for quick visits as well as overnight stays at your house. I put careful effort into following owners instructions. As an overnight sitter, I don’t mind having dogs sleep with me. I enjoy playing with dogs inside and outside.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life, I’ve raised German Shepherds and currently own one. I also have cats and I am aware of their maintenance schedules and feeding schedules. I have knowledge of medication distribution if they need it. I worked during the week (M-F), in the week I wake up early to walk my dog and after the walk feed both my dog and the cats. Weekends I walk with my dog to interact and introduce him to new and current dogs at the dog park. Once summer starts, I am very flexible in daily walks with my dog and other dogs if they are okay to walk with another dog. I clean and maintain the order of the house. I follow any instructions that the clients will provide to me, when I’m in my own home I play and wear out the dog for better relaxation and better sleep schedule. If a pet needs to be wiped down or cleaned up, I’m willing to do it.

About: I have lived with dogs most of my life and have also volunteered for CCI (Canine Companions for Independence) for a few years and with my expirience with dogs in my life I am well equipped to handel both big and small doggos. I always make sure that the dogs always have acces to water any time and since I'm home all the time I make sure their happy and that their needs are being met. I know that peoples pets are more than just pets, they are family thus for I will treat them with upmost professionalism and love. I make doggy e-journals that will be given to owners through out the day; via text or email. I hope that I can meet your furry family member soon. For safety for both parties involved please be 18+ if your dropping your pup off thank you in advanced

About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was young and currently have my own dog and cat. I crate trained my pup from 6 weeks old, taught her tricks, and introduced her to a cat at 8 months. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, bathing, and providing love to pets of all ages. I'm currently freelancing from home, so I'm home all day and have a flexible schedule. I have plenty of time to play, walk, and teach beginner tricks! I have a fenced yard and a nearby dog park for playtime. My dog is friendly, and I have both small and large crates if needed.

About: I am a nature and animal lover living in northern Maryland. I often spend time in Arlington, VA and I am available for walks in that area, in addition to the services I provide in Maryland. I am trusted, fun, clean and responsible and will give your pet lots of love and affection. I can offer a flexible schedule and will send you daily pictures/videos of your pet(s) so that you know your furrbaby is being taken care of and loved while you are away. If there is anything else you require for your peace of mind, just let me know and we can work it out. • Bilingual: Originally from Puerto Rico, now living in MD, I speak English & Spanish. • Available to take care of 🐶 dogs and 🐱cats. • I come from a family that loves animals and have been rescuing street cats and finding them loving homes for the past 8 years. *Your pets will be in safe hands* I am currently working full-time (M-F), with half of the time working from my home. As such, this allows me some flexibility in my schedule. As I live in an apartment complex, I am only 'boarding' cats and small dogs at the moment. My apartment also has an attached dog park, and there are various parks in my neighborhood. I also have an area for their water/food, toys, and litter box for the cats. While I have a balcony, I make sure it is locked while boarding your loved one. Their safety is my #1 priority! As an option: I also live 5 minutes from a Bark Social, and can take your furrbaby there if they already have a membership with the company. For your piece of mind, I live 7 minutes away from an emergency pet hospital. While I will be sure to keep your loved one safe and happy, emergencies can happen and I want you to know that I am prepared in case they do.

“Christin took my dog on a walk three times this past week due to scheduling conflicts with my usual walker. She responded quickly, was flexible, and was patient and understanding with my sometimes-difficult dog! I’ll definitely book again!”

“Caroline was very good at communicating. She obviously loves animals and worked very hard to gain the trust of my fearful, reactive dog Hazel. She listened to my suggestions on how to handle Hazel’s insecurities. I highly recommend her.”
