Dog Walking Port Republic

“Lydia walks our one-year Papillon Mix several days per week. She's always timely and provides us updates after each walk. Our dog is always happy when we get home from work. We highly recommend Lydia for walks!”

“What a lovely person. Carrie is a treasure. Not only did she come to meet Archer prior to the booking but she really left such a detailed report. That means a lot that she took the time to let me know how things went. She even performed small gestures for my home that really warmed my heart.. I would happily book again with Carrie. 10/10”

About: I have owned cats since I was two and had a Dog for over 10 years. I worked in a vet and also a kennel so I have lots of medication and care experience. I have been pet sitting since about 8 years old and can't wait to meet your little fur babies!! I have a flexible schedule, reliable transportation. I am also able to do early morning and late night potty breaks as well as feeding times. I am careful to follow the provided instructions. I can do feeding, brushing, administering medication, and litter maintenance. I enjoy lots of play time and will always give cuddles!

About: I have had dogs in my household ever since I was a little girl. I have had a chocolate lab, boxer mix, basset hound, German shepard, pit bull, and now Mr. Oakley who is a lab/pit mix. I love to bond and care for fur babies and I enjoy playing and loving on them any chance I can get. Hi! I’m currently a full-time teacher in Anne Arundel County and an experienced caregiver who loves spending time with animals. My background in education has made me responsible, communicative, and dependable. Starting in June, I’ll have a much more flexible schedule as I transition from teaching, allowing me to offer more availability for walks and drop-ins. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I care for my pets in my home by making sure their food and water bowls are always full and fresh. I make sure that my dog gets some outdoor playtime each day to burn off his energy and to be able to stay healthy and to help us bond together. I love to spoil my dog with homemade popsicles, treats, and yogurt bars are his favorite! My dog loves to have all attention on him and he is a sucker for a belly rub followed by jumping in your bed to snuggle with you.

“Great job!”

About: Giant breed dog owner with 25+ years of hands-on experience, as well as a current toy breed owner, giving me the knowledge and confidence to care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Experienced with daily care, exercise, feeding routines, medications, senior support, and understanding breed-specific needs for both large and small dogs. I’ve also owned and cared for cats for over 25 years through every life stage — from kittens to seniors — and understand the importance of patience, comfort, routine, and individualized attention for each pet. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, large, small, young, or senior, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to their unique needs. As a small business owner, I have the flexibility to schedule my day around your dog or cat’s routine and care needs, allowing for consistent, dependable, and timely visits. This flexibility helps ensure your pets receive attentive care, companionship, exercise, and comfort while you’re away. I focus on keeping your dog or cat’s routine as consistent, comfortable, and stress-free as possible while you’re away. During each visit, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks or playtime, and thorough litter box cleaning when needed, while making sure your pet’s environment stays clean, safe, and comfortable. I take time to observe your pet’s behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, since even small changes can be important. Whether your pet is energetic and social or more reserved and independent, I’m happy to provide enrichment, exercise, affection, or quiet companionship based on their individual personality and comfort level. I always treat your home with respect, keeping things tidy and secure, and I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident knowing your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Kim did a great job taking care of our (giant) dogs. She asked great questions during the meet/greet to make certain she had all the details, and she let us know how things were going during the walk.”

“Emily was a pleasure to work with! Great communication and very punctual. Emily was very accommodating when asked if she could squeeze in another walk and feeding. Will definitely book with her again!”

About: I love animals with all my heart. I’ve never met a pet who hasn’t loved me. I agree with the statement that animals are very energy in tune and I’d like to think so am I! I’ve done lots of dog sitting and cat sitting jobs for people close to me and they’re satisfied with how I did, so you 100% will be too. Your pet is in responsible, attentive hands. I have a free schedule and I’m in desperate need of a side hustle. I have too much free time and I think this would be the perfect thing to book my schedule with, especially because of how much I love being outside and animals. I’m very mindful of the safety even of my own animals so your pet is in the best of hands. Although my yard is not fenced, I take my dog out for walks leashed and for the few times she has escaped, I’m not near any major roads for there to be any accidents or for her to be in harm’s way. I am very vigilant and I would never put your animals or my own at risk because pets are apart of the family and I’d never let anything happen to a family member, even yours.

“Bre has a pleasant personality. My dogs immediately took to her during the meet and greet. She came and communicated as anticipated. We had a positive experience”

About: Since I was born I have been around dogs. I’m very comfortable around dogs and am experienced in loving, caring for. and playing with them. I work part-time right now so my availability is very open. Let me know when you would need me and we can figure it out. I will do my absolute best to take care of your beloved furry companion. Whatever needs your dog needs I will be diligent in providing.

“Haley is great! She’s been walking my old Boxer boy every week for months now. She’s responsive, reliable, flexible. Most importantly, based on the adorable photos she sends, my dog adores her.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, I currently have five cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. I also have an 8 month old husky, so I’m experienced with high energy dogs, routines, and the patience and consistency they need. Friends and family have always trusted me to care for their pets, whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I treat every animal like my own and pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and routine. I’m comfortable with multi-pet households, and keeping things clean and organized. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure, happy, and cared for while giving you peace of mind. My schedule is very flexible right now, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and consistency. I’m available most days for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, including weekends. Because I have pets of my own, I’m already in a daily routine of feeding, cleaning, playtime, and walks, so adding your pet into that routine is something I genuinely enjoy. I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I will follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible to keep things consistent and low-stress. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos. I’m very mindful of things like secure doors, leash safety, and making sure pets don’t have access to anything unsafe. With my own experience caring for multiple cats and a high-energy dog, I’m used to staying organized, clean, and attentive. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or needs a little extra patience, I create a calm, safe environment where they can feel comfortable while you’re away.

About: I have been pet sitting and caring for neighbor's pets since a teenager. They have always trusted me with their pets and know I will be cautious and attentive. I am currently a stay at home mom to a toddler and we are looking for extra income. I have lots of time to entertain your pets and take care of them. I have a nice neighborhood with lots of scenery for walking your pet. You're pets will love hanging around the house with me and playing all day!

About: I provide reliable, attentive care for dogs with a strong focus on safety, structure, and positive experiences. I have professional experience working in a dog kennel and daycare facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. This included supervising playgroups, maintaining safe environments, and closely monitoring behavior and wellbeing. I’m comfortable with dogs who are energetic, shy, or reactive, and I always prioritize reading body language and maintaining a calm, controlled environment. I follow feeding and walking routines closely and make sure each dog receives the attention and care they need based on their personality. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their dog is safe, well cared for, and treated with patience and respect. I keep a structured but flexible schedule that allows me to reliably provide pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on the day, and I plan my commitments in advance to ensure I can be consistent and dependable for each booking. I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm and safe. I follow all instructions closely and make sure feeding, walks, litter/cleanup, and any special care needs are done properly. I also take time to observe each pet’s behavior and comfort level so they feel secure while their owner is away. I treat every home with respect and always aim to leave things as clean and organized as I found them.

“Our dog is so happy to see her.”

About: I am a lover of all animals and always have been. I had a dog growing up and currently have a spoiled dog named Snickers. I used to help a friend groom dogs also. I am currently between jobs so I am available and want to keep myself active during this down time. I have a dog of my own but I figured spending more time outdoors and with animals will be beneficial to my mental health. I walk my dog multiple times a day around our neighborhood. We often go to the beach where he loves to explore. Occasionally, we will go to the dog park. I have house-sat for other dogs in their homes, and when we aren't outside playing, I will cuddle on the couch and watch movies with the animals and give them lots of pets.
