Dog Walking in Takoma Park

“Shanti is a fantastic dog walker and companion! She cares for my dog just like I would. She's patient and kind with him and we are so happy she spends time with our boy every week. :)”

“Felicia, is wonderful. Always on time and gives our Leo a nice long walk :) he’s a bit energetic so she even runs with him or plays ball some of the time.”

“Maya was an excellent walker for Lucy during a recent work trip. She was reliable and punctual, and very communicative. After our meet and greet we knew Lucy would be in great hands. We look forward to using her in the future.”

“Thank you Thank you for being available last minute. Due to a health emergency I’ve been in the ER for over a day and was worried about my boy Polo and Danielle was quick to respond and came in clutch. We both appreciate you and hope to work with you in the future!!”

“Julie is awesome! Takes Prince on long walks. always sends pictures, and always on time! You can’t go wrong, she’s great!”

About: *Please note: I use they/them pronouns. Thank you!! 😇🏳️‍🌈* Howdy! I am thrilled to be back in DC and available to resume dog walking gain! I would absolutely love to have the honor of caring for your pet on walks! As someone who is big on detailed communication I will be sure to provide you with thorough messaging/photos of your dog(s) while they are in my care, so you can be confident that they are safe and happy. I am always happy to get active and what better way than by walking/playing with an adorable dog? Please let me know of any specific requests or considerations that I should be mindful of in order to provide the best possible service for you. I'm also available to meet in person if you'd like to get to know me in advance! Thank you so much and I'll look forward to hearing from you soon! I have a part-time café job at Tatte during the week. My schedule is not fixed so my availability will not be either, but I can be flexible on any given day. I care for all pets in your home by keeping close eye on them around-the-clock. All emergency contacts are saved as soon as you provide them in case I need to reach out to a vet or trusted neighbor. But overall I simply stay by their side to monitor their behavior, ensure they don't get into any shenanigans, and provide a sense of comfort and companionship at all times.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Chanelle is fantastic! She’s incredibly friendly, prompt, and professional, with the added patience to handle our rather barky chihuahua-pug mix. Our dog doesn’t usually warm up to people quickly, but she immediately took to Chanelle, which says a lot. Her calm, reassuring approach made her feel comfortable, and it’s clear she genuinely loves working with animals. Chanelle is reliable and trustworthy, and we feel so lucky to have her as our dog walker. Highly recommend!”

“Victor was great! We needed a Rover at the last minute during the holiday season and he was available. He met up with us the same day to go over everything and communicated the entire time we were out of town. We came back to a very happy dog! We can’t thank him enough and will definitely try to book again if he’s available.”

“C has been my informal go-to cat sitter for the past three or four years. She treats my animals like her own! She’s responsible and dependable and i’m always satisfied with her services watching my pets. She’s so kind and personable! Anyone would be lucky to book her!”

“Idit was great with Chelsea and Frank! She came over early in the week to meet them and see what their routines are like. She was so sweet with the dogs and they loved her. She also sent the best pics!! Thanks Idit :)”

“Jasmine was incredibly respectful, attentive, and wonderful with our animals. We would hire her again for pet sitting in a heartbeat. Our animals loved her too! It was one of the best River experiences I’ve had.”

“Leo was great!! Communicative, sent plenty of pictures, and Duke is worn out ? Impressed that he was aware of the possibility of bloat in my Great Dane, and had the foresight to check if my dog could have water. Would love to book him again!”

“Nutmeg loves Jordyn! She was immediately comfortable with her, and the photos and video from their first walk together make me confident that I’ll be booking with Jordyn in the future ❤️”

“Lauren has been an amazing help for Pippa. She has been prompt, very attentive and super awesome about sending updates and pictures. We look forward to having Lauren continue to work with Pippa!”

“Gloria kindly agreed to come walk our senior on short notice! She was communicative and flexible—we’re excited to have her nearby.”

About: Currently I have no pets of my own as pre Covid I travelled too much. Now that I’m home for the foreseeable future I’d like to open my doors and take care of others pets while they travel or just want a break. My friends’s pet loves me as does my mom’s. I’ve an apartment but in a great walking neighborhood in Takoma Park. Working from home I’d appreciate the breaks from the computer during the day for as many walks as they need and will assure your pet is comfortable at night. I’m ok with furniture and bed presence if they’re clean and friendly. I grew up with dogs so have a lifetime of experience with them. Promise I won’t give them people food 😊

“Megan’s great. We appreciate her! Alex loves his walks with her!”

“I couldn't have asked for a better dog walker for my pup Aly. Aly loved going on walks with Samantha. Every day I get timely updates with pictures of Aly girl rolling in the grass, smelling the flowers, and having a blast on her walks! Samantha is very reliable, and I recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker!”

“Ezra was so loving with my disabled senior pup and also was great dealing with a snafu with my concierge being MIA with a key. Thank you so much.”

“Ethan watched my two cats when I was out of town and did a fantastic job! He absolutely loves animals and will spend time making sure your pets are well taken care of.”
