Dog Walkers in Patuxent River, MD

About: I have been a pet sitter for my friends and family for as long as I can remember and I am ready to branch out professionally. I’m a work from home medical engineer and can provide high quality services with a flexible schedule. Since I work from home my schedule is very flexible, especially in the afternoons. I can also do in-home long term pet sitting as I can be anywhere for work. I have a lovely small home in a rural part of town. Perfect for small dogs and cats, with no other pets on the property.

“Kimberly was great with communicating about the walk with my dog. She gave detailed explanations and took a few pictures. She was also able to accommodate a next day walk which is always great! I definitely recommend her!”

Colleen S.

“I booked Jordan for walks with my senior dog! Jordan is highly organized and comes with great experience. She followed all specific requests and care instructions I had communicated. She took many pictures that showed my dog having a lot of fun and gave detailed write-ups after each walk. Side note: my cat was absolutely obsessed with her LOL. I highly recommend booking Jordan to meet your pets' needs!”

I'm great at following schedules and instructions as written. You'll receive quick replies and great communication. I'll even send you pics of your pup! 🐶

“Caitlyn was wonderful with my dad's dog. She was on time, reliable, stayed in good communication with great pics to show how much the dog enjoyed her walk and play time. It was a huge help, since my dad has had health challenges which interfered with good dog walks. Five stars!”

“Good communication. We had coordinated a broader time window instead of the exact appointment time on Rover. She was only going to be a minute or two off the exact time due to circumstances outside her control, but still let me know.”

Mike A.

“Torrie was the best! Reliable, communicative, friendly, and professional. Highly recommend her!”

Hannah B.

“Maggie is very nice, friendly, and accommodating. She came during the requested times and took good care of our challenging dog and easy going cat. She responded to messages quickly and sent us updates throughout her walks.”

Lauren P.

“Brittany is amazing! She is extremely professional and even brought some home made treats for my pup pup. My dog took to her immediately and loved their walkies together.”

Carilyn N.

“Andrea took my dogs for a walk everyday and kept me updated with pictures. It meant the world to us to have someone so dedicated looking after their needs while we were away! Thank you!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds since I was 8 years old—everything from energetic dogs to independent (or extra-needy!) cats. Having grown up with pets my whole life, I truly see them as family. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just a comforting presence while you’re away, I’ll be there with patience, love, and reliability. Their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. While I currently work full time, I’m available most weekends for your quick getaways, as well as weekday evenings to care for your fur babies. Whether it’s a weekend stay or a drop-in visit after work, I’m here to help give you peace of mind while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping your pets comfortable and your home respected. I follow your instructions closely,whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, medication, or playtime—so your pet’s day feels as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure they feel loved, safe, and well cared for in their familiar environment. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I have taken care of and owned domestic and exotic animals most of my life. Friends and family always go to me when it comes to watching their pets. I am making pet care my full time career. I will be available anytime time for feedings, walks, bathroom breaks, or even boarding animals. Anything your pet needs, I can make happen. I have a fenced in yard and doggy doors so pups can go in and out as they please. I have two of my own dogs too. (A golden and a corgi) They are extremely friendly and get along with any animal they have ever met. I have two cats and a ferret as well. They all play together and get along. They are also all fixed. If it is preferred that your pet stays away from certain pets I have, my home is big enough to accommodate any separation needs.

About: With a lifetime of experience caring for cats and dogs, I know that pets are more than just animals—they’re family. I’ve raised three dogs and currently have both a poodle and a cat. My skills include puppy training, crate training, basic command training, and managing pets with medical needs, including medication administration. I’m also experienced with reactive dogs, allergies, and maintaining breed-specific grooming standards. As a passionate pet lover, I volunteer with the Red Cross animal visitation program. You can trust me to treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own! I work part-time and live 10 minutes from my house. I always check in on my pets during lunch. My husband works nights so he is home while I’m at work and we switch. I have a fenced yard, and lots of dog friendly walking areas. I have two friendly pets who do very well with other animals. I crate my dog when I leave home to safety & use cameras to check in on them.

“Jennifer took excellent care of my dad's dog. We will happily use her services in the future!”

About: I have grown up with dogs, cats, and horses my entire life. My family has a small kennel raising French bulldogs and I was trained and employed at a pet resort. Animals are my passion and I love caring for them. I currently work part time in an animal retail store and my favorite part is obviously the animals I get to see. I am often available to keep your furbabies company! I offer both drop in visits and pet/house sitting depending on what the client is more comfortable with. My priority is making sure that they’re babies are happy while they’re family is away.

“Sarah was, once again, AMAZING with my little fur family. Between her sweet, caring messages and the adorable pics she’d take, I knew my babies were in the best hands. She was communicative the whole time and put my mind at ease while I was away. This is my second time with Sarah and she has quickly become an integral part of any travel plans I make 100/10”

About: I am a loving and experienced animal advocate. I graduated from the University of Maryland in 2016 with a degree in Exercise Science, and in 2021 with a Masters degree in Public Health from George Washington University. Between age 9-18, I was an active member in my local 4-H club, but my pet experience began long before then beginning with my very first pet; a Grey shorthair named Smokey! I have owned 4 dogs, 4 cats, and 3 horses since age 7. Right now, I have a Korean jindo named Finn, a thoroughbred horse named Ray, and two cats. I even had a hedgehog at one time! I have extensive experience with many animals of all shapes and sizes. The first thing that attracts me to a person while out and about is their dog! I am flexible and have super reliable transportation (my own vehicle). I love all animals and I treat them as my own. Feel free to ask any questions or inquire about future care of your furry friends! Prior to beginning my current job, I had been exclusively working with animals, management and care, including two farms with horses, goats, cats, chickens, and dogs. I currently work a very flexible schedule, where I work from home 3/5 days a week. My weekends are generally free when I am not traveling for one of my other side hustles! The remainder of my time is open for me to enjoy my own pets and be a resource for other owners who need their furry friends taken care of. I do not offer in home boarding out of enhanced safety precautions with my own dog. I limit how many bookings I have at once so I can dedicate time to getting to know your pets and spending adequate time with them. I will never bring another animal with me for a drop in/walk visit. I am also very experienced in wound/injury care.

About: I have had and taken care of dogs and cats pretty much my whole life. I would love to help take of yours too! I am available for walks, cleaning litter boxes, and just hanging out cuddling. I do work full time but I am available for potty breaks during my lunch break. Must be within the Lusby area or in the surrounding area. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of room to run around if bringing your pet to my house is needed. I do have an 18yr old son that is a huge animal lover. Pet must be good with kids ❤️

About: Taking care of domestic and exotic animals growing up was an enjoyable, it gives this heartwarming feeling. I have over 15 years of experience of taking care different pets. I am willing to go out of my way for my pets, friends, family and new clients. I helped with dogs birth, puppies care, and senior care. I have a set schedule for my dog from the time I wake up to going to bed at night. Feeding, exercise and playtime will be tracked so you know your pet is getting what they need. I will obey all rules and schedule that is given to me for the best care for your pet. Your pet is in great hands, playtime and optional bathe will be included in house sitting so you can come home to a happy and clean pet if they end up having too much fun outside.

“Linda was great with my girls and very understanding with my schedule changes. Will definitely use again.”
