Dog Walkers in Whitehurst, MD

“Megan did an amazing job walking our Shiloh. She is very thoughtful and caring. Shiloh is a senior dog that has developed issues with his hind legs the past couple of years. Megan was so gentle and kind with him, ensuring not to push him too much because this particular weekend it was raining and he was having some difficulty walking without a limp. I am so thankful Megan took us on as a new client. I am truly grateful for Megan, especially since I am no longer able to walk Shiloh the way he needs whenever my grandson, who walks Shi multiple times daily, is not available to do so. Shiloh and I are blessed to know you. Thank you for all you did for him. You are wonderful!. I hope you will be available to care for him if the need should ever arise.”

About: I have watched multiple breeds of dogs with different needs, ranging from feeding, bathroom breaks, activity needed, and scheduling. I love to be active so if your dog loves physical activity, you are in good hands! I give lots of attention and spend lots of time with the pets I’m watching. I am currently enrolled in online school but rest assured, I am great with time management and will give your pup the best time! I can hang at your house while I work on my schoolwork to keep your furry friend company! I also work at a dog fitness center so I may have to work while with your pet. I have a 7 year old German Shepherd at home, so I am used to the big dogs who need the physical activity. She gets all the love all the time and loves spending time with everyone in my family. In your home, I will respect your house and rules, as well as follow the instructions regarding your dog’s care! He/she will be in good hands and never have a dull day 🙂

“Great dog walking services. Allison is always responsive and attentive to my dogs needs. She is honest about schedule and timing and I appreciate her for this! My dogs always sleep well after and are happy for their walks with Allison.”

About: I've grown up with, owned, and taken care of pets for as long as I can remember—old mellow dogs, fluffy young kittens, feisty chickens—you name it! The challenge of learning each pet's unique personality and needs has always fascinated me as a caretaker. I love getting to know them and building trusting relationships to give them the best quality of life possible. I’m a retired engineer looking for pet caretaking opportunities to keep life fun and adventurous! My wife, Stephanie, and I currently own one dog and two cats. Our home is in a wooded area with a fully fenced backyard. Pets that board with us have the option of private, single-level living, or they can share the house with us. We also have a standalone pet wash and dry station if pet washing services are something you're interested in. We’ll cater to their needs and ensure they are content and comfortable. I’m also an avid walker and hiker, and I love getting outside whether it’s rain or shine. For dog walking and pet visits, I enjoy heading to local parks (Cypress Creek and Lake Waterford are my go-tos) or patrolling the neighborhood for any new sights and smells. I am a house husband with one dog and two cats. The pets are the focus of my daily routine. My dog and I go to the park every morning and walk the neighborhood at night. Any dogs that I board become part of our family routine. If they are comfortable they can join us on trips to the park and walks around the neighborhood. If they prefer solo time then I will take them on dedicated trips to the park and walks! I have a dedicated room for dog and cat boarding that is separate from the rest of the home where our dog and cats reside. Any boarding guests can use that private space or can join the other animals in the other parts of the house if they are comfortable. Our fenced in backyard and dog grooming station are on the same level as the dedicated boarding space.

“Always on-time, great communication, flexible, and my dog’s new favorite playmate, Rebecca is professional and comes highly recommended by me…I don’t just trust my puppy-friend-son with anyone.”

“Maria was incredible. She was extremely professional, very responsive and communicative. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hi everyone! I’ve been around all sorts of animals since I was a child. Between fostering animals through shelters and animals of my own, I have had 10+ dogs and 15+ cats throughout my life! After leaving my job of 4 years as an assistant manager at a dog daycare, I have decided to come back to pet sitting full time! While I am unavailable to stay in your house overnight due to having an anxious pup who cannot be alone, I am available to do 4 visits a day (more upon request). Earliest being 6:30am and latest being 9:30pm! I am able to spend multiple hours at your house giving lots of love, walks and playtime! Respectfully and lovingly. I want to know all about your animals routine within their home so I can help them be as comfortable as possible while in my care.

“Brianna is amazing. She walked my dogs twice in one day and was on time and they loved her. I definitely recommend Brianna to care for your pets. ?”

“We were in a pinch & needed a walker to check on Buddy within 2 days. Cyndi Wickham replied to our request, meet us the next day and started the folding day. Love her flexibility and find so much comfort knowing our boy gets some play time and a potty break in the middle of day.”

About: Hi there! I have over 15 years of professional animal care experience, including 6 years as a zookeeper—so when I say no pet is too big, small, or exotic, I mean it! From house pets like dogs and cats to reptiles, birds, and other exotic animals, I've worked with a wide variety of species and temperaments. Whether your dog needs structured walks, your cat needs a calm and patient sitter, or your parrot thrives on enrichment and routine, I’m fully prepared to provide expert, attentive care. I’m experienced in administering medications (oral, topical, injectable), working with senior and special-needs animals, and understanding subtle animal behavior cues—skills I developed both in private pet care and during my time in zoological settings. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I’m reliable, communicative, and always happy to send updates, photos, and videos so you can enjoy peace of mind. I look forward to meeting your beloved pets—no matter how furry, feathered, or scaled they may be! As a stay-at-home mom with both of my children now in elementary school, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. I’m home and available seven days a week, so I’m able to maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and find pet care fits naturally into my daily rhythm. Pets are welcome in our house, however they do need to get along well with cats and kids and will need to be crated overnight or when I need to step out. We have a massive fenced in backyard that is perfect for the zoomies.

“Toby was very patient with our dogs and arrived on time each day. Highly recommend!”

“I recently broke my foot and ankle. I can’t walk my dog Auggie. Stumbling across Renee’s ad on Rover has been a miracle. She comes twice a day. Auggie has major trust issues, noise reactivity issues and anxiety. To say the least he adores Renee and I trust her with him. To me she’s been a large part of my peace of mind with my best friend being taken care of.”

About: Myself and my family have been dog sitting for as long as I can remember. I have dog sat pups from 6 lbs to 120lbs and all in between! I work from home full time and have a dog of my own. We have daily walks and lots of play time. I am home majority of the time throughout the week minus errands and such. I have a tiny 30 lbs dog who LOVES other dogs. She loves to play and has yet to meet a dog that she didn’t love! We have a huge deck where she love to sun bathe and play. We have a front/side yard area to play. My dog is crate trained but I am fine to leave a dog out as well. My parents have 2 large dogs that I care for occasionally, one of which requires daily pills so I have a lot of experience with hiding a pill for a wary dog. I have had dogs all my life and really enjoy walking, playing and caring for them.
