Dog Walkers in Somerset, MD

About: Your dog’s happiness and well-being are my top priority! With a passion for pups and years of experience, I provide loving, reliable care tailored to your dog's unique personality. Whether it’s energetic playtime, peaceful walks, or cozy cuddle sessions, I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and excited while you're away! Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine, as I believe in creating a structured yet flexible schedule that keeps both my pets and me happy. I care for pets with the same attention and love, whether I’m walking them or providing drop-in visits, and I adjust my approach based on your dog's needs. Dog Walking: During walks, I ensure your dog gets plenty of exercise and mental stimulation while following their pace and preferences. I’ll take them on their favorite routes, whether it’s a calm stroll or a more active walk to burn off energy. I keep them safe by using the proper leash and equipment, and I always watch for any signs of fatigue or discomfort. Every walk is an opportunity for fun, exploration, and bonding! Drop-In Visits: For drop-in visits, I focus on keeping your dog happy and comfortable in your absence. I’ll check in at the scheduled times to provide fresh water, offer a quick bathroom break, and spend some quality time playing or cuddling. I also make sure to stick to any feeding schedules or special instructions you’ve provided, keeping your dog's routine as consistent as possible. Whether it's a walk or a drop-in visit, I ensure that your dog feels loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away!

“The dogs and I adored Meghan. She showed up with a big smile and eager to get to know the pups. She quickly became a part of their daily routine - and they were all wagging tails when she would open the door. In short - a perfect match. Meghan was always on time and highly considerate - letting me know when she was on her way. I found he energy and enthusiasm combined with her professionalism to be a perfect match. We will absolutely hire Meghan again.”

About: I have had dogs since I was young and have taken care of and pet sat for neighbors multiple times. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies, and am willing and able to work on skills and training such as potty training and basic commands. Currently have an internship where I’m required to go in on Wednesdays so I’m unavailable that day. On weekdays however I’d be more than happy to go check in and play with any animals during the day! I'm also a morning person so I'm happy to wake up early and check on any furry friends before work I've worked in shelters with volatile dogs before so I have been taught the best ways to approach nervous and anxious animals. I would never put (or want to put) a dog in a situataion which they feel uncomfortable or constricted. I make sure to abide by this by being responsive of the dogs body language and general behavior

“Sydney has been very helpful with filling in for my primary mid-day dog walker! She is very prompt and reliable is sweet with Minka. I recommend her services!”

About: Hi there! I've had pets my entire life. I currently have one cat I absolutely adore. When I was a child, I've had a dog, Lucky, who lived until he was 14 years old. I love animals and am experienced with pets of all ages and those with special needs, including administering medications, such as oral meds, eye drops, ear drops, and inhalers. I am patient, gentle, and will provide tailored care to your pet's specific needs and routines. I work part time and have flexible hours, allowing me plenty of time to walk your dog or pet sitting. I will work my schedules around yours to accommodate your fury friend's needs. I'm available for both workdays and weekends. When you book me for drop-in visits, I will communicate with you before and make sure to maintain your pet’s routine to minimize stress. I’ll care for your pet as directed, provide any needed medication, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, affection, and companionship. I will also keep your house clean and send you cute updates, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands while you're away. For a walk, we can arrange a meet and greet first to make sure your dog is comfortable with me before we go for a good walk.

About: I have two years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. On top of that, I previously worked in nursing homes, where I cared for elderly residents—this has given me a deep sense of patience, responsibility, and empathy, which I bring into every pet-sitting job. Whether it’s giving extra TLC to a senior pup, following specific care routines, or just being a calming, loving presence, I treat every pet like family. I’m reliable, observant, and always ready to go the extra mile to keep your furry friend happy, healthy, and safe. I currently work a flexible part-time job from home, which means I have plenty of availability to give your pet the attention they deserve! Whether it’s daytime walks or drop-in visits I’m able to adjust my schedule to meet you and your pet’s needs. I’m also available on weekends and for last-minute bookings, so you can count on me whenever something comes up. I'm here to make sure they're happy, comfortable, and never feel alone. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and fun environment where they feel loved and comfortable. I always follow the pet parent's instructions closely—whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, administering medications, or keeping up with favorite routines and toys. I treat each home with respect and make sure your pet feels secure in their familiar surroundings. I also keep communication open with regular updates and photos, so you always know how your furry friend is doing while you’re away.

About: Just starting out on this site and looking to build my client base, so my rates are low! I have been sitting for animals since I was 12 years old-- cats, dogs, puppies, lizards... I love animals and have a cat of my own, but I love being able to play with dogs. I'd love to care for your dogs and be their friend while you're away! I can walk them, take them to a dog park, and make sure they are fed and cared for. I have a car so I can come to you, if needed. I'll provide daily photos and videos. I also make my own doggy treats (peanut butter and apple sauce) and am excited to share them with approval from mom and dad! I'd be happy yo take your furry friends hiking or to the beach and fill their days it lots of fun!

About: I am a local professional interested in helping other pet owners with my dog walking and cat sitting services. I was raised in a home with cats and dogs and am very familiar with their needs. I have pet sit for other people's animals many times since then. I currently live with one cat. At this time I am offering dog walking services and will come to your home to pet sit a cat or dog. I am energetic and comfortable working with both large and small dogs. I am highly responsible and respectful of both your pets and your living space. I will diligently follow your instructions and keep your pet happy while you are away! Comfortable with providing medications and longer care requirements.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my lifelong experience caring for feline and canine companions. Growing up, I lovingly cared for six cats, handling everything from daily feedings and grooming to litter box maintenance. My heart has a special place for senior pets, inspired by my own senior dachshund, Lincoln. His health challenges, from medications to specialized care, taught me the nuances of senior pet care. While my home is quieter now since his passing, it has created a new chapter for me to share my experience and love with your furry family members, offering compassionate boarding services for dogs and cats of all ages and needs. My work-from-home schedule on Mondays and Fridays provides ample opportunity for walks, playtime, and cuddles with your pets during the day. Weekends are entirely dedicated to pet care, whether it's a long walk in the park, a fun playdate, or simply enjoying some quiet companionship at home. I live in a pet-friendly one-bedroom apartment in a lovely neighborhood with easy access to green spaces for walks. I believe in providing a loving and attentive environment for my pets, which is why I only accept one pet at a time. This allows me to give them all the love, attention, and individual care they deserve.
