Dog Walking Mount Pleasant

About: I’ve had dogs of my own for over 15 years, so caring for dogs has been a big part of my life. I currently have a dog of my own and understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities and always take the time to learn their individual routines, needs, and quirks. Whether your pup needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or overnight care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog in my care with the same patience and attention I’d want for my own. I have a flexible schedule and can make pet care a priority throughout the week. I’m generally available for walks, drop-ins, and extended stays depending on my work schedule. I’m especially happy to provide pets with plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship rather than simply stopping by and leaving. I’ll communicate clearly about my availability and work with you to make sure your pet’s routine is maintained. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m attentive to routines, feeding instructions, walks, medications, and any specific needs or preferences your pet may have. I provide a calm, clean, and caring environment and always take time to make sure pets feel comfortable and secure. I’m also happy to follow your instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

“Krystal did a great job keeping us informed and our dog loved her, as usual! We love working with her! We are always so appreciative of her help!”

“Ariana was great! She worked with my very stubborn dog and got him around the block perfectly. I would definitely hire her again. If she can work with my giant stubborn dog, she can take care of any dog!”

Rebecca M.

“Prompt and friendly.Very excited to find another dog walker in the neighborhood. My dog felt right comfortable right away.”

“Katie goes above and beyond and I literally have no critiques. I have 2 big fur babies and she met them before my trip, took pictures while I was away, gave me updates on them, administered one of my dogs medications, and was super accommodating with a last minute request because I had travel delays. One of my babies has an abuse history and I was so worried but Katie asked questions and gave her time to warm up. I will definitely continue to use Katie’s services moving forward and recommend her services as much as I can. She’s my go to sitter for my babies when I’m gone!”

About: I’m reliable, consistent, and very caring—I understand the importance of caring for pets. I’m good at administering medication, taking care of older pets, and making sure your pet is comfortable and safe! I’m able to host short-term and for long periods of time.

About: Hi! I'm a 28 year old professional living in the Adams Morgan/CoHI neighborhood of DC. I have extensive experience caring for my childhood dog, Copper, as well as a number of other friendly canines in my parents Chevy Chase neighborhood. I'm looking for a way to make a few extra bucks in this high class city and would love to earn them taking care of cute pets! I'm tons of fun for dogs as I love to run, throw the ball and walk around DC as much as they do usually. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you'd like to learn any more, or if you'd like a few references before booking. I look forward to hearing from you!

About: While i’m new to the app I am the trusted pet sitter for all my friends! I can match the needs of your pet based on whatever they’re feeling like that day. I have more experience walking small and medium sized dogs and hanging out inside with larger dogs. I know how to give oral medication, and have experienced giving injections to cats so I can learn with dogs too if needed! I also have senior pet care experience as well meaning medication, arthritis massages, and anything your baby needs! I just finished my master’s degree so I have a very open availability. I am available M-F 10am - 9pm. I am open to being flexible with what is needed! When in your home your rules go. If you have a list and specific care that is what I will do. Keeping an eye on pets is important even inside the home so they will have my full attention! When walking the leash stays on and we will be the perfect pedestrians. If I have any questions about your pets rules I will ask before you leave us so we make sure we have a fun and safe time together!

“Caris is wonderful with my girls! She is attentive, on time, and leaves great report cards and photos. My girls love their time with her. :) Can’t wait to have her walk them more!!”

Victoria M.

“Jennifer was a great help and made sure to give Cricket the best experience - she took the pup for an extensive walk and sent photos along the way. She made sure that Cricket was well hydrated after too, given the heat. I’m sure Cricket will want to see Jennifer a lot more!”

“Noura took excellent care of our dog during his daily lunchtime walks. She is kind and very communicative during the process, and our little guy was in a great mood afterward.”

Brooks M.

“Lydia is awesome! Can’t say enough good things about her. She’s timely, communicative, and also I can tell she actually loves dogs and cares for them well. Definitely will be using her again!”

Anna & Jonathan B.

“Super great and attentive. Kashew is a high energy dog and a little reactive on walks but that was never a problem for Shahnaz. Great communication always provided a picture update. Would definitely book again!”

Lauryn B.

“Michael was available on short notice to walk our pip and he was wonderful. He was kind and responsive and took our girl on a nice long stroll. What a great first rover experience for us!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for nearly my entire life. I I grew up with pets, including dogs and cats, and have years of experience watching other people’s dogs I currently work a full-time job, but would have availability on certain days when I work from home or on the weekends. I could also be available some mornings or evenings as well Although I do not have space in my apartment to take care of dogs due to having 2 cats myself, I have a lot of experience of taking care of other people’s pets and their apartments and homes

“George had a great walk and extra time outdoors while I was out for a full day. Thomas responded to George’s needs as an older dog sensitive to hot weather. He loved getting out for fresh air and I got a lot of cute photos!”

“Alex was great! We needed someone last minute and he was responsive and saved our butts! Lots of pictures and the house and dogs were great while we were away.”

About: I help your dog keep their routine so you come home to the same happy dog you left, just a little more tired. I’ve been around animals my whole life. My first pets were two cats, Atlas and Tiger Lily, and now I live with my dog Beba, a fox-colored rescue who is smart, opinionated, and very sure of what she wants. Living with her has taught me a lot about balancing structure, play, and calm so that a high-energy dog can actually relax. I have hands-on experience with senior dogs, allergy and skin issues, anxious dogs, and dogs who are very attached to their people. I’m comfortable sticking to detailed routines, handling meds or special care instructions, and adjusting to whatever your dog’s personality needs. That might be slow, sniffy walks and quiet company, or it might be ten minutes of zoomies followed by couch cuddles. When I take care of someone else’s pets, I treat it like a mix of teacher, host, and bodyguard. Your pets should feel safe, seen, and entertained. You should feel informed and reassured. I send clear updates, photos, and notes so you’re never wondering how things are going. Bottom line: while you are away, my job is simple. Keep your animals happy, keep your home respected, and keep your stress level as close to zero as possible. I’m currently between long-term projects after graduating, and I work remotely on my laptop most days. That means I’m very flexible and can shape my day around your dog’s needs. Whether you need early-morning walks, midday drop-ins, or last-minute help, I’m usually available and happy to make it work. When I’m caring for a dog, whether in your home or on walks my approach is simple: keep your pet safe, comfortable, and relaxed, while respecting your space completely. In your home: • I treat your home the way I’d want someone to treat mine: I don’t touch anything I don’t need to, and I don’t move things around. • I follow all instructions you give me: feeding, walks, routines, boundaries, and quirks. • I stay aware of doors, gates, windows, and anything your dog might get into so they stay safe. • My focus stays on your pet, not your belongings. With your dog: • I match their energy: calm with nervous dogs, playful with high-energy pups, gentle with seniors. • I keep consistent with their routine so nothing feels unfamiliar or stressful. • I make sure they feel seen, safe, and engaged the entire time I’m with them. • Walks are structured but relaxed, always leashed, always paying attention to surroundings. Overall: I aim to be the kind of sitter who blends in seamlessly: not a disruption, not rigid, just someone your dog is comfortable with and you can trust to follow your rules exactly.

“Elizabeth has been amazing with our French Bulldog! He loves spending time with her and is always pooped and ready to take a long nap after she leaves. She gives him long walks, plays with him in the yard, makes sure he has enough water and treats. She takes great photos and I'm always excited to see the Rover report for the day. She has a flexible schedule and I would highly recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and positive sitter!”

Michelle C.

“Avery has been great walking my anxious little buddy. My other walker suddenly moved away and Avery was very responsive and flexible in doing an introduction and then a few test walks before taking on the job without me even around anymore. She walks my guy every week now!”
