Dog Walking in Madison Manor, Arlington, VA

“The highlight of Chloe's day is her morning walk with "Miss Evie."”

“Marina was fantastic with Jasper, and very helpful and willing to walk him at the last minute. We brought Jasper home on a weekend and had not yet set up services with a regular dog, so it was a bit of an emergency and Marina was very understanding and warm with him! From the pictures she sent each day, he looked like he was having a great time with her. Jasper would love to spend time with Marina again, anytime!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for around 7 years as I've walked, played, or house-sat my own dog and my neighbors dogs and had a blast doing it. I am available most late mornings and afternoons, weekends are hard because I have soccer reffing for the whole day each day and it would be hard to squeeze a dog walk in. I can easily settle dogs down, crate dogs, and make them feel relaxed without stress when they sense danger or something is off. I am able to control them no matter the strength they have.

“I was impressed with Daniel right from the start! He is a very humble, respectful, responsible, kind young man who loves animals. My dog Sophie immediately took to him and she would have great walks with him. I asked a lot from Daniel when I went on holiday…and he delivered! He came to my home for 10 days to not only walk my dog but also feed her…give her medicine, and as a bonus, he played with her. Socializing w Sophie went a long way because she was alone most of the time. He would always be on time and, when another dog walker canceled, he quickly covered that shift. No questions or higher charge. He sent a lot of photos too. Since I’ve been back from my holiday, I’ve been in poor health. I texted Daniel and he is now my dog walker on days when I’m unable to take Sophie out myself. Again, punctual & always thinking about what’s best for my dog…. For example, He remembers to dry Sophie’s paws when they arrive from a walk in the snow or rain. I highly recommend Daniel as your dog walker or sitter.”

“Maryam is great! She's clearly an animal lover with a big heart, and our pup, Robin, loves to see her when she shows up to take him for his daily walk.”

“Sammi is very kind and takes great care of our little dog. Her love of animals really shows. She responds quickly to communications and provides helpful feedback after each walk.”

“Isabelle walks my goldendoodle furchild every day and she’s such an important part of Maya’s life. To start, she’s super communicative and reliable, which makes it really easy to plan and coordinate walks and dogcare with her. She was also great about learning what behaviors we try to reinforce, Maya’s habits and routines and what Maya eats, which gives me the warm and fuzzies that as a parent, aunt Isabelle is staying consistent with dad’s rules. Isabelle is so great with dogs and has good judgment generally; seeing how she interacts with Maya and hearing her describe how Maya did on a given walk, I trust her implicitly. Lately she’s been really helpful in figuring out fun new walking routes or destinations that cater to Maya’s interests and mood and energy level. Yep Isabelle is a wonderful dog “auntie” and just a delightful human being. I don’t know what her advertised rates are on here, but you should pay them and then some. Isabelle, get after it girl. Charge people what you’re worth! ?”

“Molly did a great job walking/visiting our goldendoodle this week! She was really responsive, left great messages and photos, and gave our pup the love and attention she needed. We will book her again!”

About: I've taken care of animals of all kinds since I was a kid and moved out of my parents house as an adult just to get a cat. I've worked with difficult dogs in the past and am very patient and thorough. I would love to show your furry family member the attention and care they deserve. I'm currently between jobs, so I can spend as much time as you need with your animals. Long walks or frequent drop-ins—I can be there. I am very thorough and detailed, so you can trust any instructions or directions you leave will be followed. I know how important your animals are to you and I want to make sure the next time you see them, they are as safe and happy and as when you left.

“Michaela has been so great with our dog and very flexible with availability. She communicates how things are going and even works on helping our pup behave a little better on walks. Would highly recommend her to others. Very professional”

Chelsea M.

“Katie has gone above and beyond to help train our puppy on walking and leash skills. She remains incredibly responsive and flexible in our requests. Thankful to have found someone so trustworthy!”

About: I have owned 2 dogs and 5 cats over the past 12 years. I have cared for animals with a range of ages, reactivity levels, and health issues. I have previous experience caring for the pets of friends and family. Additionally, I have volunteered at PetSmart to take care of their onsite cats. I'm a rising sophomore college student with a car and an open summer schedule. I have a lot of flexibility to care for your pet wherever and whenever. I can adjust my care for your pet depending on the individual animal. It is difficult to make a blanket statement on how I will treat all pets as they are all so different! I will always act with the utmost care and caution to ensure your pet has a happy and safe experience while you're away.

About: I have been caring for friends’ pets for the past on and off for the past few years to make some extra income. I’ve worked with bigger, outside dogs several times, sometimes for weeks at a time, and have a little experience with smaller and inside dogs. I love taking dogs for walks and have experience cleaning up surprises and putting bark collars on particularly squirmy dogs. I also have experience with rabbits and chickens, keeping up with their eating schedules and making sure cages are clean. I work part time and remotely, so my schedule is flexible! I have church and family responsibilities that command my attention during the week, but I still have plenty of time, especially on the weekends! Most of my past experience petsitting has been with overnight stays. I’ve always left the environment better than I found it, and because my work is remote, I will be able to give your pet the care and attention they need and deserve.

“Aislyn is lovely, she is always responsive, on time to visits, and super detailed in her updates and care. You can tell she really cares about the pups she looks after which is so important!”

Andrea S.

“Elsheba was amazing! She was very responsive and responsible with our pup. She kept me updated during and after the walk and was up to pick her up while we weren’t home as well. We really appreciated such care for our dog!”

About: I guinely care about your pet. I've had dogs and cats all my life. I have a soft spot for fur babies because I have my own. I've also fostered cats and been the petsitter for friends. I also have a lot of experience giving pets their meds and brushing their teeth. I work 15 mins away from home and I come home for lunch. I’m also a homebody and my hobbies include baking a gardening, so I’m almost always home. I have a spacious front and backyard. I also have a deck with a gate. If your furry friend wants to sunbathe, it’s a great spot. My area is also in a suburban area, so there won’t be any traffic noises keeping your baby awake.

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve had labs in my family since I was a kid, frequently walked neighbor’s dogs in middle and high school, and worked as a walker and sitter numerous times as an adult. My girlfriend is also a dog walker and sitter, and I often help her with various dogs. I also love taking pictures of pets playing and having fun, so I’ll always try to get some good ones to send you whenever I can! I’m self-employed and mostly work from home, so my schedule is typically super flexible, and I can fit dogs in when needed on any day of the week. I will be attentive to your pet’s needs and communications. I will also be sure to closely follow any care instructions provided to ensure a happy pet and a safe environment for them, according to their specific needs and personality.

“She was really great with our energetic dogs!”

About: Coming soon my 3 furry Colombians 🐕‍🦺❤️🐾... Meanwhile, your faithful friend is in my hands! I am a dog lover with a heart divided between two countries: while I hope I can bring my three furry children from Colombia (a Pitbull full of energy and two loving Cockers), I want to take care of yours as if it were mine. - 🐾 **I know what 'misunderstood' races need**: Pitbulls deserve respect and patience, not stereotypes. The Cockers, attention and delicacy. - 🦴 **I adapt the care to his character**: Not all dogs are the same, and I learned that with mine! - ❤️ **I miss my dogs, but that makes me give more love to yours**." * When I take care of your dog, I don't just follow instructions: ✅ **Real experience** with strong and sensitive breeds. ✅ **Safe rides** for Pitbulls (or soft games for elderly Cockers). ✅ **Updated in signs of canine stress** (the Cockers are masters in that!). ✅ **Flexible and communicative**: I will send you photos and updates, because I know what it's like to be away from your pet." * Is your furry shy, hyperactive or a little study? I understand your language perfectly! For now, my three dogs are far away, but that only means that I will have more space in my heart (and in my agenda) to pampers yours I adapt my routine to give your pet the rhythm it needs: intense walks for the strong like my Pitbull, naps and pampering for the delicate like my Cockers, and always with updates that show you their day as if you were here!" ** My day is moulded to your dog: controlled energy for strong, patience for sensitive, and photos that steal a smile from you." * I offer personalised and 100% safe care in MY HOME, where your pet will receive:** 🏡 **An adapted space**: Separate areas for active dogs (like my Pitbull) and quiet areas for the most sensitive (like my Cockers). 🐕 **Experience with 'difficult' breeds**: I know how to manage strong energy and anxiety with patience and proven techniques. - 📲 **Total transparency**: I send photos, videos and daily reports so you can see how happy your furry is. - ❤️ **Seasonal love**: While I wait for my 3 dogs (who are in Colombia), your pet will be my absolute priority." **Why in my house? ** "I prefer to care in a controlled environment, where everything is prepared for safety and comfort, no surprises!" _.
