“Ava was absolutely fantastic! She was reliable, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. From the very beginning, she was communicative, punctual, and made me feel completely at ease knowing my dog was in such caring hands. She went above and beyond by making sure my dog got plenty of exercise and attention. I highly recommend Ava to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable dog walker. I'll definitely be using her services again. Thank you, Ava, for taking such wonderful care of my pup!”
“Nancy is fantastic. She takes my dog for a walk multiple times a week. She's very reliable and gives me feedback on my pet after each walk. She's on time and keeps my mind at ease to focus on work when I'm at work. Nancy and my dog really seem to enjoy their time together each day. I would definitely recommend Nancy to anyone needing a kind and responsible person to care for their pet.”
“Danielle is amazing!! She has been walking my two pups on a regular basis for a few months. She is always on time and so communicative in how my pups did on their walk. I can tell Danielle cares for them like they are her own. I highly recommend her!”

“First would like to say great app it was my first time ever using an application like this. Second, Jennifer was great with zoro as a new puppy he is a handful, but Jennifer was able to walk and play with zoro. She was even able to clean his mess and provide water for zoro.”
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets for friends and family. I care for our pets’ emotional health in addition to physical health. I like to make sure our pets get a lot of mental stimulation. I’ve helped with training puppies, bathing dogs and introducing new pets to each other (cats and dogs). My husband and I both work from home so we spend most of our time with our pets at home. We also enjoy training sessions and setting up puppy play dates with our pups. For our cats we have food puzzles for their mental stimulation. Our pets are a part of our family! We spend most of our time playing and snuggling with them. We also enjoy spending time learning each of their personalities.
“Highly recommend! She’s super friendly and really went above and beyond to take care of my dog! She kept us informed and was very understanding. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve had the pleasure of raising a dog from 9 weeks old to his current 13 years. I’ve been there every step of the way, from puppyhood to adulthood and senior years. Plus, my dog tore his ACL, so I know firsthand the challenges of keeping your pet safe and out of harm’s way, along with the need for special care and instructions. I am currently a senior student athlete in college with a flexible schedule. I wanted to find a part-time job that I would actually enjoy, and I have always loved being near animals. Coming back home to my dog is always the highlight of my trip, so being near dogs and getting to see the joy on their faces has always made me smile. I think pets are happiest when they’re in their own space, so I’d rather work at someone else’s home. Plus, getting to know the dog and the pet owners will really help everyone feel more comfortable.
About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life and have experience taking care of animals as small as fish to as big as horses. I’ve also taken care of old dogs with special health needs and puppies. Just moved to the area so looking to pick up some new clients as I look for a more full time job. My availability may fluctuate as this happens but I’m happy to work with you as best as I can through any changes! With all pet care I always follow instructions to a T and am quick to notice if something is off with a pet. With overnight sitting I also tend to make sure the house stays neat and pets get lots of attention.
About: I have taken care of not only my own pets for almost my entire life, but also I have helped friends and family with their fur-babie(s)! I even taught my dog her lefts and rights. She’s a smart little pup. 🐶 As of today, (8/11/25), I have a pretty open schedule and I will adjust my schedule on here, promptly, if my schedule changes! Feel free to ask any questions, I’m also willing to do some same day pet care, if needed! I plan to make sure during my time with any pet that they are taken care of in a safe, proper, and caring manner, whilst also following any specific instructions of my clients needs for their fur-babie(s) & their homes.
About: HAWKINS DOES NOT LIVE WITH ME FULL TIME, HE LIVES WITH MY FATHER :) I've been a dog lover since childhood! I've been watching, walking and giving lots of love to my own dog (Hawkins) for about 3 years now! However, I was asked to walk and check-in on dogs several times in my complex and neighborhood! This happens especially in my family, as a lot of my family members have one or more dogs they ask me to take care of when they go out of town, or just need a break! I've been caring for a diverse range of breeds, from a Shih Tzu to a Golden Retriever since I was basically 10 years old! I love to work, play with dogs, and save to pay off my student loans! I'll have some availability on the weekends when I don't have class, usually starting around 12pm! There are plenty trails, parks and squares around Maryland, which will provide your dog plenty of room for extra exercise, plenty of playing, and exploring! I will happily take your dog for long walks, play with them however your living space will allow, and play with them as long as you are comfortable with in the parks!
About: I’ve had pets in my home since I can remember. I grow up with a Shih Tzu name Teddy which was my first love when it came to having pets. They are literally the way to my heart. I always had my own pets, but as I’ve gotten older moving around and taking them with me became harder. I’ve trained almost all my pets myself; well with the help of my mother and little brother. I've always had my own dog which has gave me much experience with handling them. I treat every dog like my own. I tell people all the time “pets are just family members that can’t speak” which is almost like that saying “your children are your broke best friend”. Both are still relevant. I am currently working remote 3 days out of the week allowing me to care for pets as needed & Keep your pet on schedule While in my home I assure your dog will get plenty of exercise with outdoor adventures (trails, walks, beach etc.) & keep them from harm.
About: I’ve cared and owned for all sorts of animals ranging from Dogs, Cats, and Even small pets. I have always been very passionate when it comes to animals.

About: I have done pet sitting for many years. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and some reptiles! As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find reputable care for my animals when I’m away. I am able to provide many services and properly care for your babies. Let’s chat about your wants and needs! :) I am a college graduate, but I am continuing my education completely online right now, which means my schedule is very open. I have fur babies of my own and would definitely need to make time for them, but I am a very big planner and my scheduling is great! I am comfortable with crating your pets if you’d prefer. I have two XL crates in my home inside of our pet room. I do not have a fully fenced in backyard, but there are plenty of walking areas in my neighborhood to exercise your pups! I can definitely cater to your preferences in your home and very possibly in mine! I prefer to work 1 on 1 with pet parents to figure out the best regimen and routine for your pet(s).
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs- all sizes and ages. I helped my father train dogs for his business. I also have a service dog at home who is trained and got certified. I have my own cat baby who I’ve had since we were both young. I currently do work part time as a customer experience associate but my hours are very set normally and can be flexible with proper notice. Before being left alone with your pets I would like to do an in home visit to meet everyone and go over routines and where everything goes.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an amazing experience! My dogs are extremely energetic and can definitely be a handful but Sarah handled them with so much patience, care and confidence. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands. The communication was great and I could tell my dogs were well taken care of. I truly appreciate the time and effort put into making sure they were happy. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, caring and patient dog walker. I will absolutely be booking again!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Woods. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
