Dog Walkers in Union Bridge, MD

About: Hi! My name is Jenny, with over 30 years of experience in pet sitting, I have dedicated my life to caring for a variety of beloved pets. My lifelong passion for animals has provided me with a great understanding of their needs and behaviors. I have been surrounded by pets all my life, from dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits to my current companions, goats and chickens. Known for my kindness, responsibility, dependability, and caring nature, I strive to offer the best care for every pet I look after. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and helping with all your pet sitting needs. Your furry friends will be in good hands! 🐾 I currently have a part time craft business out of my home, so I have a very flexible schedule and make my own hours, so I can very easily adapt to your schedule! I ensure that pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy in their own environment while their owners are away. I follow a personalized approach, understanding each pet's unique needs, routines, and preferences. My services include: - **Daily Walks and Exercise:** Keeping pets active and engaged. - **Feeding and Hydration:** Ensuring they have fresh food and water according to their specific diets. - **Companionship and Playtime:** Spending quality time to prevent loneliness and stress. - **Medication Administration:** If required, I carefully administer medications. - **Home Security Checks:** Keeping an eye on the home to ensure everything is in order. - **Clean-Up:** Maintaining a tidy space by cleaning litter boxes, cages, and any messes. With my responsible and caring nature, I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing peace of mind to pet owners knowing their furry family members are well-cared for. 🐾

“The doggies and their owners are very happy. All questions were asked. All updates were given. Last minute request was accepted.”

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND….All of the things you want while you are away to relax from your responsibilities with your pets. My high energy girls are entertained, exercised, and pampered until they don’t want me to come home! Feel confident leaving your pet in their care.”

About: I have an 11 year old goldendoodle named Taffy who I have raised since she was a puppy. I have walked dogs and house sat for friends and family since I was young and will always take the opportunity to spend time with animals of all kinds! I recently graduated from UMD and I am taking a summer class to finish up my double degree. Otherwise my schedule should be fairly open and I should have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I can follow any directions needed for caring for your fur babies. I can go for long walks to provide exercise, play (of course), cuddle, reinforce tricks/training, administer oral medicine, etc.. Just ask and I will probably be willing to accommodate any requests! I always make sure that your pet has access to fresh water and feed according to instructions.

About: Ive been taking care of my neighbors, friends, and families pets for a little over 6 years now. Over the years I have learned many things about pets and how to calm them down and gently direct them in the right path. I also have lots of experience with senior dogs who need more attention to detail than younger dogs. Pet care fits into my daily routine quite well. Im a sophomore at frederick community college taking only one in person class, so my hours are almost always completely available! I am the dominant pet care taker in my home with two dogs (my angels). I care for pets in my clients home by greeting them and let them get to know me. If the client has a fenced in yard for me to take the dogs out and play thats amazing, but if not I take the dogs for nice walk to get them exercise and some entertainment. I am all for following directions so just let me know what you need and ill handle it!

“I could relax all day at work knowing my pup was going to get a visit full of love and a nice long walk! Copper is laid out snoring tonight- noted by both myself and my teen! Thank you crystal!”

About: "Hi, I'm Becky! I'm a passionate dog lover with years of experience caring for furry friends of all sizes. I have three dogs of my own, two adorable rescues and a very dramatic frenchie who is my best friend! I am dedicated to providing safe, fun, and enriching walks for your pup, ensuring they get the exercise and attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member!" I work from home which allows me to have more flexibility with your schedule. I usually know my required work meetings a few weeks ahead which also allows for an easier time with scheduling walks. I have a fenced in front yard at my home. I have used crate training as well. My dogs also sleep with us at night. My feet are never cold! 😁

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was little. I can really connect with them easily! It makes me happy that your pets are taken care of! Anytime, just let me know! I take time in my schedule to go to the gym as well, but that can be moved around if anything pops up! I have a fenced yard, so for my dogs I usually get toys out and play with them for a good bit. Maybe throw in some training treats for new skills. I can walk your pets, and learn what they love doing in your home! Even if that means cuddle time too!

“We were lucky to find Grace! She was Always on time, courteous, with lots of energy! My dog Leo (80 pounds Labradoodle) is very active and requires good walks. Grace was the perfect much for that task!!!”

About: First I just want it to be known that I am willing to work with clients on pay rates and negotiate to a rate that fits for both of us. The rates listed are not set in stone. I have cared for cats, small-large dogs in various breeds (Beagles, Pitbull's, Labs, Shelty's, and more) for several years now for close friends and family near the Frederick area. I also have experience with smaller animals like Guinea Pigs, Gerbils, Bunnies, Fish, Turtles, and Hermit Crabs. I myself have a 6 year old Beagle and have been taking care of her for the passed 5 years now. I am home from college for summer break and will be available most weeks days in the evenings and some weekends. Other than work and preparing for school events I will not have much on my plate, giving plenty of time to care for your pets. I care for my clients pets with upmost care and love while maintaining expectations of what the client needs or prefers for their pets. This may include taking your dogs for daily walks, playing with them, making sure they are fed, bathing them, cleaning up any potty accidents, and spending quality time with them to keep company while their owners are away. For cats this may include keeping their litter boxes clean, making sure they are fed of course, playing with them, and quality time as well. I rely on clients to give me information on their pets routines so the pets themselves aren't as confused with a new person taking care of them.

About: I’ve grown up with a 16 year old pup! I also have walked dogs for as long as I can remember. I currently work with dogs and cats on top of having 3 of my own! All different sizes too :) I currently have everyday open with a variety of different hours available! I can do one time a day or even 4 if need be! Feel free to reach out with any questions! I live next to a huge fenced in field, along with having extra enrichment items, treats, and different foods for all sizes of dogs and cats!

About: I've been around animals my whole life. From the littlest of fish, to the largest of cows and other farm animals! I have 3 dogs of my own, two Colorado mountain dogs and a medium pittie mix. I also have 4 geckoes (2 leopards, a giant Madagascar day gecko, and my newest boy, a harlequin crested gecko!). I've dog-sat little dogs, big dogs, disabled and elderly dogs, as well as young pups and households with multiple animals! I will give you the best care, whether it be for your pets, home, or more! Right now I work part-time at a bakery on Sundays, and I am also a full-time college student! Thankfully, my schedule is very flexible and my attention will solely be on your furry friends. I always make sure to keep my client's homes clean and organized, and pay special attention to any extra tasks I'm giving, such as watering plants (I have dozens of plant babies!), changing the temperature, emptying dehumidifiers, and retrieving packages. Anything you need, I will do to the best of my abilities! I like to update my clients daily on their pets to ease their mind.

About: I have had dogs since I was 5, and I started working at a doggy daycare when I was 18. My senior year of highschool I was an intern at a local animal hospital and I loved it! I would love to spend the summer with your dogs and provide whatever services and help you may need! I am currently unemployed for the summer, so I can spend any time needed with your dogs. I have applied for jobs, so if my availability changes you will be notified but as of right now I am free to do anything. I have a huge (not fenced in) backyard. Since working at the doggy daycare, I have experience in helping dogs into crates, doing specific food for the dogs, attending to their personal needs, and making sure they have hours of entertainment and love.

About: I have always had a cat and dog of my own growing up but I love all animals big and small. Whenever my family, friends, and neighbors need pet care I am always their first call! I always feed my pets, take them to the vet, and give them plenty of love especially when I am home from college for the summer. I have walked, fed, and cared for animals of many kinds. I love keeping them company while their owners are busy and I am willing and able to clean up after them.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and plan to one day own a sanctuary. We do have a newborn as of 9/12/24, thus I require your dog(s) to be previously exposed to babies. Please do not book if you do not know how your dog will be with a baby as we are not your test site. My partner and I currently have three dogs and an indoor cat, who is literally like another dog, as well as a leopard gecko, bearded dragon, ducks and chickens outback. As you can see we are well versed with all animals, it’s truly my life’s calling and if it paid all my bills it would be my full time job. I work from home with a very flexible schedule and would love to help take care of any fur babies I can! I don’t mind swinging by to go for walks, to feed/give medicine, or just for some company. My dogs are very friendly, very energetic, and always love when we have doggie slumber parties. I have ranged from boarding one dog to ten for one night to two months (ranging in all sizes). I will communicate if there will be another visitor at the time of your request. Your dog MUST be spayed/neutered and have been exposed to other dogs. I will not risk the chance of any unnecessary tussles around my baby. I ALWAYS require a meet and greet (whether you’re one minute or one hour away) as we need to make sure our dogs get along and because you and your dog need to ensure my home is a good home for your babe while you’re away. Please do not inquire for boarding or daycare if you refuse a meet and greet - I will not move forward with your request. I also prefer to come to your home to meet your dog(s) upon request for in person visits to ensure they trust/like me and to make sure I know the ins and outs of what your request consists of. I will care for you animals the same exact way I care for mine. I am on maternity leave until January and am home almost 24/7. Outside of leave, i work from home a few days a week and make my own schedule of the time so the dogs will more than like always have someone home. When I do work out of the house I try to make it the days my partner is off in the morning so that the dogs do not have to be alone. If we expect to leave the house for an extended period of time I will always communicate this with you beforehand. I have a 5 foot fenced in yard with AMPLE running space (literally the size of a mini dog park) and a pack of four dogs, in which three never stop playing! We make sure the dogs have shade and water outside on warm days. We have plenty of toys and dogs beds for maximum comfort. Our house is completely doggy proof so they get free roams at all times.

About: I’ve always been drawn to helping animals, regardless as to if it’s simply taking them outside to walk, potty or even down to the medicine side to helping with emergencies & simple annual visits. I currently am a Vet Technician at a Vet hospital in East Berlin, Pennsylvania. I just want to be more involved with my days off on the more simpler side of animals. I rceently moved out of a home with 3 dogs, 3 cats and a tortoise. So my experience with animals in home is endless, but now I currently live with my three cats that are very well loved.

About: Thanks for looking at my profile! I'm looking for pet sitting/walking/care jobs. I've had two dogs that I've taken care of for 12 years, so I'm comfortable with any tasks. I also regularly sit/walk dogs for friends and family members. I had several cats growing up as well, so I'm happy to care for them. Additionally, I grew up next to a neighbor with a horse farm who I would help, so I can groom, muck, and ride horses. I'm a big animal lover, and a very active person, who enjoys playing, running, walking, and hiking with all animals. I'm happy to house sit as well. I'm looking for owners who need immediate help, and I'm very flexible, so I can accommodate whatever pet needs you have. Thanks for reading this, hope to hear from you! Saturday through Monday my schedule is open to care foe your pups! Tuesday and Thursday I am available from 12:30PM, and Wednesday and Friday from 2PM onwards. My complex has a dog park where I can regularly take them for bathroom breaks. I don’t mind dogs on furniture or beds but I am happy to adjust my style to however you care for your dogs at home. I have a trail very close for long walks and play time.
