Dog Walkers in Spotsylvania, VA

“Jenni was FANTASTIC with my crazy girl! Despite the challenges Ravin posed (dog reactive, jumping in creeks, etc) Jenni was very good to her and was a great asset! Will definitely reuse her!”

“Kristen is timely, takes good photos, and gives great descriptions of the walks she takes with our pups. We know what kind of experiences they had and we can see the route they took on their adventure. Kristen is professional, kind, and flexible. Your animals would truly be in great hands with her.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, currently have two of my own, and have had experiences with dogs who require medication. While with me, your fur babies will be under the best care possible. They will be treated just as I treat my own pups— spoiled rotten! I currently work part-time with very flexible hours, so I am always able to meet you and your pups needs. Your babies are always my first priority! It is my goal to ensure that your pup is safe and happy. As a dog owner, I know how your dogs are your babies. (: I will always ask beforehand for any directions or suggestions so that way your dog is content and happy!

About: I have a history caring for many dogs and cats, as well as other species! While I haven’t been doing petsitting through online platforms, I have years of personal and professional experience caring for and getting to know furry friends with a range of different personalities. These sometimes include those with extra needs due to attachment styles and/or medical accommodations. I believe that an animal's health benefits greatly from a loving caregiver, which is what I always strive to be for my clients. As someone with a passion for running and job history of always being on my feet, I am fully capable of giving more active dogs the exercise they deserve. If your pet needs a little extra love, I'm the sitter for you! I am currently working self-structured hours as a children’s book illustrator. Pet care is my main priority during my day-to-day, and I'm always excited when it's added to my daily or weekly schedule. I stay vigilant during walks, playtime, and mealtime to ensure the safety of your pet. If possible, I love to play with your pet during our time together, because they are my top priority and I know how much they miss you (as the owner of a very social, affectionate dog, I completely get it)!

“I highly recommend Autumn as a dog walker! She has been walking our German Shepherd, Boaz, and her care and dedication are exceptional. Autumn is not only punctual and reliable, but she also takes the time to understand Boaz’s needs and personality. Each walk is filled with engaging activities that keep him active and happy. Boaz always returns home content and well-exercised, which is a testament to Autumn's skills. Her friendly demeanor and genuine love for dogs make her a standout choice. If you're looking for a trustworthy and passionate dog walker, Autumn is the perfect fit!”

About: We provide care in our home and treat your babies like our own. We walk them multiple times a day, love on them, take them on field trips when possible, we spoil them rotten. We can help with crate training, potty training, house Manners etc. We have experience with Senior dogs ( most recent passed this December 2024 at 15 years old). I have had diabetic pets so am willing to administer meds as required. I have volunteered with a local rescue for 4 years now and have fostered for that long as well and have experience dealing with many difficult behaviors like resource guarding, counter surfing and more. Here at Bark n Kuddles we are a husband and Wife team so our dogs are very rarely alone. I teach high school so during the school day my husband takes the pups on walks, and outings and provides play time and snuggle time. When I am home we share the responsibilities and our kids are trained so they love on your babies too but they know boundaries and are very good at being mini pack leaders. The only time your pet would be alone is if we had to go somewhere as a family where dogs could not come but we have two pups of our own to keep them company but again that is rare that someone is not home. We only take one or two clients at a time as we have a small home but we take the dogs out on walks (Distance depends on the dogs need but could be 2 to 3 miles easily) and I have access to a big fenced in yard that my family owns should dogs need off leash time and play time (under our watch at all times of course). We do crate dogs when home alone for their safety and to protect the house but they get yummy kongs with frozen treats and other treats as long as owner is ok with it. We love on them how the pups want to be loved on. If they want to lay next to us we let them. If they prefer to just chill off to the side that's all good too. We also follow all owners instructions whether in our home or yours and give your baby the attention they need to keep them happy and safe while you are gone.

About: I have taken care of pugs to pits for almost 20 years! I have trained dogs from puppies to 5 years old. I truly have a passion for caring for animals! I also have 2 dogs of my own if you are looking for play time and socialization! I work from home and homeschool my children Monday through Friday until 5pm, so I have pretty open availability. All dogs must be good with children! I have a fenced in yard, sidewalks in my neighborhood and a dog park right down the street! My dogs are spoiled and treated as family members!

“My dog loves her! She is really patient and kind and definitely at one with dogs!❤️”

About: I grew up in a household full of cats and dogs. As one of the older children in the house it was part of my chores to take care of the animals. I have 2 of my own cats now and love to spend time with and love on them. I also am the go to for most of my friends for watching their dogs while they are away. I currently work as a server 3-4 days a week. I work 6 hour shifts that can vary from morning or night. I do have a flexible schedule otherwise. If I am unavailable due to work, my boyfriend is available and more than willing to assist since we live together. Since I have cats care is a bit easier. I keep them fed and with a flowing water system. I make sure to keep the litter box clean and am very gentle with them. With other people its all about your schedule and how you care for your pet. I am willing to fill whatever shoes needed.

About: I am a true dog lover. I currently have one lab mix we rescued a year ago. Her name is Oakley. Oakley also is looking forward to having a friend to play with! I will spoil your dog as I spoil mine. They will get extra attention, walks, playing, able to jump on couch and bed! I also volunteer at a local shelter so I am very familiar with many types of dogs and personalities. I am a mom to 4 human kids and 1 dog. Your dog will almost always have someone home with them unless we run out to the store, a family outing, or a children's sports event. If your dog likes to tag along we can take him/her to soccer games as well! If your dog comes to stay with us they will be spoiled. We have a fenced-in yard they can play in, I will also take them on walks either morning or afternoon depending upon weather. They will get to snuggle on the couch or bed. They also will get to play with my 1 year old lab mix who just loves all dogs!

About: I have always been an animal lover. I grew up with a golden retriever, cats and a bunny. As an adult I still have golden retrievers, currently have 2 and a bunny.

About: Hi! I’m home for the summer and excited to spend time doing something I love, caring for animals. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and I recently lost my own, which reminded me just how much animals mean to me. While I don’t have time for a full-time pet right now, I still stay involved by volunteering every week at a local animal shelter and helping care for the cat I live with at school. I also worked as a vet assistant for a year, so I’m experienced with pets of all ages and temperaments. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or anything in between, I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I gave my own. I’m currently taking an online summer course with a very flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the summer for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits. Since I’m not working right now, I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m happy to help however I can! In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely, feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions, so they stay comfortable and happy while you’re away. I make sure they get plenty of attention and care!

“My puppy is very energetic but Kelli-Beth was so patient with her. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and temperaments, thanks to my dad being a military dog handler. From an early age, I learned the importance of structure, trust, and attentive care. I have hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra love and patience. I'm comfortable giving medications, managing multiple pets, and adapting to each pet's unique needs and routine. Whether your dog is big, small, shy, or high-energy, I’m confident, calm, and always focused on safety, comfort, and fun! I’m available for pet care on Friday nights and throughout the weekends, including overnight stays. This schedule allows me to give your pets my full attention and care when you need it most. Whether it’s evening walks, playtime, or overnight companionship, I’m flexible and ready to help keep your furry friends happy and comfortable! When caring for pets in your home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. At your home, I respect your space and routines to keep pets relaxed and stress-free. I also will clean up if staying over the weekend! Open communication with you ensures your pet’s needs are fully met and you feel confident leaving them in my care.
