Dog Walking Patterson Park East

“Kimberlyn is the best! Our dog latched onto her instantly and looks forward to every walk. We quickly became comfortable with Kimberlyn and how she handles the dog. She is now our go to and we wouldn’t consider anyone else!”

“Highly recommend! I needed a dog walker the same day, and William was very accommodating and easy to work with. He was friendly, communicative, and treated my 125lb German Shepherd with great care. It’s not always easy to find someone reliable on short notice who can handle a big dog. I’ve already booked again!”

About: Hi! I offer dependable dog walks and drop-in visits with a focus on consistency, safety, and genuine care. I love animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I grew up with dogs and have cared for a variety of animals over the years, including cats, birds, and other small pets. Being around animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I’m comfortable adapting to different needs and temperaments. I also have my own dog, which has reinforced how important patience, structure, and understanding behavior can be. I take a calm, thoughtful approach and always aim to make pets feel comfortable and cared for during each visit. With my background in healthcare, I’m very detail-oriented, reliable, and respectful of routines. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific instructions, I make sure everything is followed closely. Pet care fits into my routine in a consistent, structured way. I offer early mornings, limited midday visits (based on proximity), and evenings, and I keep my schedule intentionally manageable so I can be on time and fully present for each pet. This works well for clients who need reliable, ongoing weekday support. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine and following all care instructions carefully. Safety is a priority—I use secure leashing and entry practices, pay attention to each pet’s behavior, and adjust as needed to keep them safe and calm. I’m respectful of your home and provide clear updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Solomiya started walking out dog weekly about a month ago and it's been wonderful! She is consistent, on time, and takes him on nice long walks, including some trips to the dog park, which I know he loves! Highly recommend!”

“We are so fortunate to have found Sarah on Rover! We could not have asked for a more patient and understanding friend to our Tilley, and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter! Great communication and flexibility during her visit, would definitely book her again!”

“Jess has been great with my dog Gigi! She promptly assured my initial anxieties as a new dog owner and Rover user and has been accommodating of Gigi’s needs, including her recovery from spay surgery.”

“Kal was great! She came and got the dogs from our hotel which was a huge help. She did a good job walking them and feeding them for us. She worked with our schedule to meet up prior to her coming to take them out. I highly recommend Kal!”

About: Hi! I’m Molly, a recent college graduate preparing for law school and a lifelong dog lover. I’ve had dogs since I was sixteen and raised and trained my own goldendoodle, who now lives with my parents in Pennsylvania. I’ve also cared for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, including puppies. I love having a dog around my apartment—the companionship and company are honestly one of my favorite parts of pet sitting. I live in my own studio with a private back patio, and dogs are welcome on the furniture and in my bed. I offer boarding, house sitting, daycare, walks, and drop-in visits. I do work part-time during the day, but I have a flexible schedule and make sure every dog in my care gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. Outside of work, I’m flexible with how we spend our time. I live right outside Patterson Park, so I’m happy to take your dog for a long walk or to the dog park, or we can relax at home together while I study. Most importantly, I’ll work around what works best for your dog. Every dog has different needs, routines, and personalities, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely. I’m also very communicative and will send plenty of pictures and updates if you’d like them—or keep things more relaxed if that’s your preference. I’d love to meet you and your dog! I live alone and work a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to care for furry friends! I am an early riser and am happy to start the day with a walk or some play, as well as some quality time to unwind in the evenings. I have my own studio apartment within a townhouse in a great neighborhood, perfect for walks. I also have a fenced in back patio! If caring in your space, your rules and boundaries are my guide!

“Thanks to Imauri’s flexible schedule, she was able to accommodate our beagle who is just shy of four months and needed to be taken out for walks. Very professional, even checked up on my puppy when I was a little late getting back home just to make sure he was OK. She even tidied up after he came in from his walk which was extremely helpful. My baby loves her and is comfortable with her and that speaks volumes for my shy beagle.”

About: New to Rover, but Full of Love & Dedication! Though I'm just starting my journey on Rover, I bring a genuine love for animals and a commitment to their well-being. I may not have years of experience, but I make up for it with enthusiasm, patience, and a strong desire to learn. I'm dedicated to providing your pets with the care and attention they deserve, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Your trust means everything to me, and I'm excited to build lasting relationships with you and your furry (or not, much love for them as well) family members! I currently work full time but only 3 days out of the week so I'll have plenty of time to drop by and shower your babies with all of the love in the world and then some more on top of that! There's always time to get a tail wagging! I would greatly prefer caring for pets in their own home, but if necessary I do have a mid-sized fenced yard, space for roaming inside, I live less than 10-minutes away from a large park/dog park, and can crate if necessary. I live a pretty active lifestyle, I enjoy the sun so if your pet likes to run I'm on its tail, and if not, I'll lounge right beside 'em with snacks in hand!

“We would highly recommend Emily! She was responsive, responsible, reliable, and prompt. She clearly took great care of our sweet boy and showed him lots of love and attention during their walk together. Thank you, Emily!”

About: I’ve been around animals and pet care my entire life. My dad is a veterinarian, so growing up, I had the unique opportunity to learn about animal behavior and care from an early age. Because of that, I’ve developed a strong understanding of both dogs’ and cats’ personalities, body language, and needs. I have 8 years of experience walking dogs and providing drop-in visits, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with a variety of personalities and routines. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including tablets, ear drops, and eye drops, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m a proud dog and cat mom myself, so I know firsthand how much trust goes into leaving your pets in someone else’s care. Outside of pet sitting, I work in the research field at Johns Hopkins. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each pet I care for. My goal is always to make your pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I have a flexible and hybrid work schedule, so I am able to accommodate drop in visits, walks and any other services needed. Happy to help!

About: I've always had a dog growing up and my parents made sure that me and my sisters were a part of training and raising a great dog. I've wanted my own pup forever and in 2019 when I was 100% ready to take on the responsibility, I got my best buddy, Atlas. We began our training at 16 weeks and are still going strong learning new skills and mastering old ones. My fiancé loves to say we "got such a great dog", but I know that Atlas and I worked our butts off to earn those compliments from strangers. In 2022 we adopted Dover into our little family giving Atlas a forever playmate. Dover is surprisingly 100% GSD which provided quite a learning curve as his training needs strongly differed from Atlas'. Working with Dover gave me a deeper understanding of dogs with separation anxiety and fear reactivity (barking) which has made me that much more prepared to work with any pup. I don't believe there are bad dogs, but every dog can have a bad day. As someone with a pup who is more reserved and particular about meeting new people, I understand the fear that comes with leaving your dog with someone new. It is my goal to love and understand your pup the same way you do so that you can feel comfortable being away. I'm embarrassingly obsessed with being the best dog owner, so I am constantly trying to learn how to best interact with dogs (and cats!) or fun new ways to engage my playful boys. I am the person friends call when they need help with their pets in any capacity-training, boarding, dog park visits, etc. My commitment to extraordinary pet care extends well past just my own boys. I can't wait to make your life as a pet parent just a little bit easier! Let's chat. 😊 I currently have a wide open schedule so I am available whenever your pet needs. I'm a morning person, so I don't mind the early morning walks. 🌞 As someone who understands that sometimes the need for short notice pet care is unavoidable, I am here to help step in when you need it most! Ever pet parent knows the best way to care for their pets, so I will always follow your guidance or suggestions. I love playing with pets and burning off that excess energy; I'm not one to just stop in and fill the water bowl-you can rest easy knowing snuggles always come after some exercise. I also love receiving updates or pictures of my boys when under someone else's care and I am happy to provide that to parents who prefer some pooch pics in the middle of the work day.

“Miranda was great with our very energetic pup. He’s really sweet but can be a handful of energy before a walk and she calmed him gently and made sure he got plenty of exercise. We’ll definitely book again!”

About: I grew up next to a family with 5 dogs, 3 cats, and 4 birds which I used to housesit for all the time. I also had a beautiful lab and the sweetest german shephard growing up. Now I work with animals at work (I'm a biologist) so I'm a pro at animal care! I am currently a masters student at Hopkins with remote courses so I have mostly all day and I miss my old afternoon walk buddies from back home! I can provide yummy treats (assuming no allergies!) and am trained in animal handling and care so your furry friend will be safe with me!

“Megan has been so awesome! She is super reliable and even came through to care for my dog when I had a last minute emergency. She is so kind and thoughtful! Highly recommend!”

“Ty was great with my pup Bodhi. He has a really chill vibe and I think the animals really pick up on that and enjoy their time with him. Thank you Ty for taking such great care of my baby!”
