“Caleb is personable, friendly, and energetic enough to keep up with our lively puppy. Stella would always return her walks with Caleb happy, joyful, and yet ready for a nice puppy nap. Caleb even took the extra step to come over for an introductory visit to meet Stella, get acquainted, and talk us through any concerns/answer questions. Highly recommend using Caleb & Julianna.”

About: I've been a dedicated dog lover my entire life. Growing up, I had a dog who taught me the importance of companionship and responsibility. Three years ago, I welcomed a new Labrador into my life. I've personally handled her training, which has given me a deep understanding of dog behavior, positive reinforcement, and the importance of a consistent routine. For the past four years, I've been expanding my experience by caring for the dogs of family and friends. This has allowed me to care for a wide range of breeds and personalities, from playful puppies to calm senior dogs. I'm skilled in providing personalized care that meets the unique needs of each dog. You can trust that your furry family member is in experienced and loving hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care for your dog. I work from home three days a week, so I can offer plenty of daytime companionship, potty breaks, and playtime. On the two days I'm in the office, I'll be gone for about eight hours. For your peace of mind, I'm also available for overnight stays at your home. This ensures your dog maintains their routine in a familiar environment, and it provides them with round-the-clock care and comfort. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities, and I treat every client's home with the same respect as my own. My approach to in-home care is built on a foundation of trust, clear communication, and a well-planned routine. Staying in a client's home allows your pet to stick to their normal routine, which helps reduce stress and anxiety. I make sure to create a calm and positive atmosphere by providing plenty of affection, playtime, and enrichment activities. Whether it's a game of fetch in the backyard, a cuddle session on the couch, or just a quiet evening together, I focus on giving your pet a happy and comfortable experience in their own space. I'll also send you regular updates and photos so you can see how well your pet is doing.

“Kate did a great job walking my dog. She had a good rapport with my pup, she communicated very well, and she ensured my dog’s safety and happiness. I would definitely recommend Kate as a dog walker.”

About: My family's love and appreciation for animals has instilled values of pet-care, discipline, and adoration for animals within me. Throughout my life, I've always owned a dog or cat, so I've grown accustomed to animal needs and routines. My experience with fostering has taught me the individuality of a dog's needs and how pets require care that is specific to their conditions and dispositions. One of my fosters was a puppy, so I have experience with a range of dog ages. Another was a border collie, so I am familiar with high energy dogs. My parents possess strict and high standards for the pet sitters that take care of our cat and dog, which has extended to my current standards that I hold for myself. I completely understand the struggle of leaving your pets, and with this in mind I will provide loving, reliable, and trustworthy care. As a student who is on break for the winter, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Having a flexible winter schedule allows me to devote ample time and attention to your pet's needs. My years of experience with animals allow me to affectionately and quickly connect with other pets. I strive to create a calm and loving atmosphere so your pets will feel at home with me. It is my top priority to ensure your pet's happiness and safety. With my accumulated knowledge I will cater to your pets individual needs, whether that be feeding, grooming, playtime, or cuddles.

About: Hi! I can take your dog on a 45 minute or 90 minute trail hike! They can stop and sniff as often as they like and they love running or hiking in nature! have been taking care of dogs for the past 15 years and I love them! have a single family home with 9 acres in Parkton, MD. I have a section of a wooded area fenced in if the large dog(s) cant be off leash. I have dog crates if needed and the dogs have plenty of room to run around. Pet care has been something I just do for many years now. At one point I had 4 dogs, a cat and a ferret living with me and that was constant walks, feeds, treats and coordination. I have a fenced yard if needed, but I also have 9 acres and lots of woods to give the pups plenty to explore and smell.

About: I have cared for and owned animals from dogs to reptiles my whole life! I have had years of experience with both small and large breeds as well as sick and elderly pets. I work in a veterinary emergency hospital and am also in grooming, so I have lots of experience handling dogs of all types!! I am available all the time on Monday through Wednesday. Afternoons on Sundays I am open as well. Feel free to message me anytime about specific availability!! When I go for walks, I have a good-quality leash with traffic handles, as well as an e-collar, which I use for active recall. I have lots of experience with leash training dogs who struggle with pulling :) I am always open to play ball or tug of war too and keep your babies active!

“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?”

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life! I’m a mom of twins, a proud rescue dog owner, and a frequent puppy foster. I know how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like family — and that’s exactly what I do. Your dog will always get plenty of love, care, and attention while in my hands. I have open availability and a very flexible schedule. My availability starts as early as 9am and remains open throughout the day with a short break from 3pm-5pm. I can also be available to early morning walks upon request. When pets stay with me, they’re treated like part of the family! I make sure they have lots of attention, play, and love — plus a cozy place to rest. For visits or walks at a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routines and your space, making sure everything is just the way you like it. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is being well cared for.

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!

About: I have three pets at home, 2 dogs and a cat, and I've also done care for my neighbors. I can deal with high and low energy pets, and while most of my experience is with mid-large sized dogs, I'm cool with anything small or large. Currently a student at Towson University. Semester is ongoing, so I'm only free MonWed from mornings to around 3pm, and TueThu to around 1pm. I'm free all Friday and all weekend. During the semester, I'm only going to be doing Friday and weekend boardings. I can play in any way your dogs want, take care of their needs on schedule (grooming included), or just relax with them if that's what they want. I am prepared to dedicate myself to the happiness and safety of the dogs in my care.

“Great communication!”

About: I have taken care of all different types of dogs for varying amounts of time and looking forward to taking care of many more ! As a college student, I’m hoping to take care of your furry friend over breaks and weekends here and there when I am free ! I love a schedule and organization so if you give me instructions, I am all over that! I will try my hardest to stick to your dog’s routine!

About: As a dog owner and dog lover, I will be sure to treat your family member with care and compassion. I grew up with dogs and have always had them as family members- small and large alike, I will treat your pet as one of my own! As a firefighter/paramedic, my hours can be odd but that gives me the flexibility to love on your pets during any time of the week/day! I’m very careful and diligent in how I present myself and care for pets. I’m great with communication to ensure that you know what’s going on.

“We feel so lucky to have found Addison. He's reliable, super responsive and we know Ruby is getting the walk and attention she needs when we can't be there”

About: I have been around animals my whole life and I have 2 pets of my own. I feed and take them on walks every day I have 2 pets of my own. A dog named Reese and a cat named Sawyer. I am able to come to someone's home also. I also work in the evenings Wednesday through Sunday so I am able to care for animals in the mornings and all day on the days that I am off from my regular job which is Monday and Tuesday. If you need an overnight sitter I can do that as well. My schedule at work is usually 7 hrs and I would be able to come stay a night after I get off work. We can discuss that at a later time upon booking if needed. I take my dog out on the leash because of the place that I live at doesn't have a fenced in yard. Watch them closely when not on leash. I also have kennels that can separate them if needed.

About: As a college student studying Zoology, animals and their care are more than a side hustle or a hobby: they’re my world. Apart from my academic coursework in animal care and welfare, I have more than eight years of personal care and volunteer experience with numerous animals, including but not limited to: cats, dogs, horses, rats and mice, hamsters, snakes, various types of lizards and amphibians, goats, chickens, sheep, cattle, and even invertebrates such as tarantulas and scorpions. Rest assured, I’ll never discriminate against your furry pal! I have experience giving oral medication, both liquid and pill, as well as insulin injections and subcutaneous fluids. I also have experience caring for elderly animals — like my 18 year old cat, Maya! I can provide feeding, brushing, hoof care, walking, exercise, medication, play time, turning out, litterbox cleaning and much more! I have a driver’s license and my own transportation, and my hours and pay are flexible. I am willing to drive 60-90 minutes depending on needs. As mentioned prior, I have extensive prior experience volunteering at various shelters, vets and farms assisting with animal care, as well as my own personal experience caring for a diverse array of pets. I am happy to gather recommendations from organizations I work with. While caring for your pet or pets, I will regularly keep in contact with you and update you with both text and photos (if desired), along with keeping a dedicated spreadsheet of feeding/watering/grooming times and overall health to guarantee your peace of mind. I am capable of providing pet care across a flexible schedule. I can provide early care from 6-9 AM in the morning and any time after 4:20 PM on weekdays, as well as 24 hour care on weekends and overnight stays if needed. I am able to care for pets in a wide variety of ways thanks to expensive experience. Walking, feeding, litter-box cleaning, playtime, as well as insulin/subcutaneous fluid injections are all possible. I can also administer medication orally. Daily checkups as well as overnight stays are both possible.
