Dog Walkers in West Nottingham, MD

About: With a lifelong passion for dogs and three years of hands-on training in animal science at TCHS, I provide expert care in walking, feeding, grooming, and administering medications. Currently, I apply these skills daily at a local kennel, ensuring every pet receives personalized attention and the highest standard of care. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I currently work part-time at Vixen Hall Kennels. My schedule changes weekly, but I’m flexible with hours and can easily accommodate different times. I’m also willing to get up early or stay up late if needed to ensure your pets receive the best care at any time of day. I treat every pet like they’re my own, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner to maintain their pets' routine, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or medication. I’m committed to providing personalized care and always prioritize the well-being of each animal, ensuring a stress-free experience while you're away.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 15 years old. Whether it’s a quick check in, potty break, walk, cuddle buddy, etc. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I do work full time, as well as a full time college student. During the week, I work 9:30am-6pm and if I’m working on the weekends it is 8am-4:30pm. As long as it works with my schedule, I’m available! I have 3 dogs and 7 cats. I treat my pets like family. I make sure they’re on a consistent feeding and walking schedule, and I always keep their environment clean, safe, and enriching. I pay close attention to their behavior and health so I can catch any changes early. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just being present, I make sure they feel loved, secure, and well cared for every single day.

About: I have been pet sitting for a while! Overnights, drop ins, you name it. I have experience with puppies and elderly dogs. I have cared for my own dogs for ever as well. I am working full time 8-4 but I am available on weekends and most holidays. As well as weeknights or first thing in the mornings . I have one year old pup at home with a large fenced in yard. I have a one year old pup at home. We have a fenced in yard and go one walks in the park every few days.

About: I don't have any pets myself, but I have lots of experience with them! I used to have chickens for several years, and I've also worked with horses as well. I gained a lot of experience working in a dog kennel, and became very comfortable with all different breeds and temperaments of both dogs and cats. I also have occasionally house sat for friends and family over the years and have taken care of several senior dogs. I love caring for animals and making sure they get the love and attention they deserve, so I can't wait to take care of your pet! I am now currently available at any time during the week except for early mornings on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and on Sunday mornings until 1pm. Currently I am not able to care for any pets in my own home, but I very flexible and can care for your animals however you wish in your home. I can easily adhere to any schedule you already have set in place for your pet, so any walks, potty breaks, or specific feeding schedules will be no problem for me.

“Jack is awesome at caring for our large breed dog, Titus. We adopted a puppy in June and were nervous about leaving him home all day once school hours returned in August. Having the peace of mind from Jack’s updates and photos from daily walks put us at ease. Jack is a natural with dogs, and he knew what questions to ask right away. It did not matter that Titus was 50 pounds at only 4 months old. Jack did great with Titus on leash walks and backyard play. Titus loves every visit. The communication has been stellar. I highly recommend Jack for your dog sitting/dog walking needs.”

About: I’ve been around animals all my life, & I can’t wait until I’m in a situation when I can finally have my own dog again. I’m knowledgeable about pet care & animal behavior, have great attention to detail, & enjoy learning more. I love every critter I meet (although I am partial towards chihuahuas & pits) & I have yet to meet a dog that didn’t like me. My family always had dogs growing up, & I have experience caring for a variety of dogs of different ages. I’ve only had two pet dogs that went through their entire life cycle with me, & my most recent doggo was a shitzu who came to me when she was 11. I spent her last few years trying to make her as comfortable & happy as possible. That’s the goal for every animal I care for. While this is obviously a job, & I do need the money, I genuinely enjoy getting to be helpful, to make someone’s life easier, & to, of course, spend time with dogs. I figure if I have to have a side hustle, it should at least be rewarding!! Thanks for reading!! I am a waitress- I usually work full-time, but it’s the slow season & we have a server surplus at the moment. I’m currently only scheduled for 3 night shifts a week, so my schedule is pretty open. Even on the days I do work, I would be able to check-in & care for the dogs before I go in, & can check on them afterwards as well if needed. Basically, I currently have plenty of time to fit in pet care. I am comfortable staying at someone else’s place; it would be nice to have a change of scenery every once in a while. Of course, I will treat your house with respect & be sure to leave it as it was when I arrived! If they wanna chill & sleep, that’s fine with me, but if they’re really active & need to play, I will play fetch & tug-o-war for hours on end. I have a car & supplies to take care of a dog if it is needed (snacks, poop bags, leash, blankets, first aid kit). I’m familiar with dog breeds & behavior & am aware of different training techniques so I’m not worried about being able to manage any dog- like getting them in their crate at the end of the night, or establishing a relationship with them, etc. I will care for your pet the way you want, but above all I will always care for an animal with the utmost respect & love, 💕

About: Welcome and thank you for your consideration! I encourage any questions you may have about the type of care I provide or my experience. I strive to be a dependable, reliable, trustworthy, and knowledgable caretaker. I believe in providing the level of care, respect, and attention to detail that I would personally insist upon for my own pets. Why I may be a good fit for you: ✨ Previous experience working in a veterinary clinic, including administering oral, topical, and injected medications. ✨ Experienced with "difficult" cases such as fearful, nervous, or spicy personalities, senior /disabled pet care, or homes with multiple animal species. ✨ I take on limited numbers of clients at a time to ensure that I'm able to commit undivided attention instead of rushing to beat the clock. ✨ 100% supportive of indoor and outdoor cameras -- the more the merrier! I am a full time, flex student so my schedule is able to adjust pretty well to accommodate all of my client's schedules and needs. I do not over book myself to avoid issues with emergencies, other visits running over time, etc. I do start a timer at the beginning of the visits, but I do not intently stare at it or scramble to leave as soon as the time is up. I have a questionnaire that I ask all current and future clients to fill out. It asks about feeding, schedule, behavior, quirks, exercise, hiding places, trash bins, etc. to ensure that I can be prepared to handle anything that comes up. For example, I follow your instructions to the T with regards to feeding, whether it's wet, dry, raw, mixed, home cooked, or something in between.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own. I’m patient with shy pups, energetic with playful ones, and attentive to senior dogs who need extra care. I’m currently only working part time so I have a lot of flexibility to fit in pet care! I am available anytime Monday through friday! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their routine. I provide lots of attention, playtime, and ensure a clean, safe environment. I'm respectful of your space and your pet’s comfort is my top priority.

About: Experienced with young fur babies, senior dogs, zoomies, and cuddle bugs. Excellent at sticking to a routine or just going with the flow! Here to provide ease to you and your fur family when you need a helping hand :) Currently living at home while finishing school, so my schedule is, as of now, pretty open (especially during the summer before school starts back up!). Try to be adaptable dependent on each pet’s personality. May or may not become a slight helicopter parent when providing care. Cute selfies of your fur baby will be taken and sent to you, so forewarning.

“Erica is a miracle! I was worried how long it might take my dog to warm up to someone coming in her home without me there, particularly because she is blind. Erica worked with me to take the time to get to know Ember and fortunately, it took no time at all! Ember warmed up to her so quickly and is so excited when she visits for a walk! Ember and I are so grateful!”
