About: I have taken care of friends and family members dogs for years. Whether it be for a week or just a short walk, I’m always up for a jaunt with a friendly animal! Big or small, they all love walks and playing! I am currently looking for work with animals and have a flexible schedule. Would love to help out on a consistent basis! If checks ins, walks, play dates are needed, I'm your guy. I have my two cats at home and cannot currently take more animals in here for watching, but have a car to transport to the pets in need! I am a clean person, will tidy up after the animals and will follow whatever rules are put in place.
“Sam took the BEST care of my girl while I was away on a long trip. I had booked ahead of time and she committed to the plan and even accommodated last minute adjustments on my end! I am so thankful for Sam and her dedication to her clients!”
“Emily was wonderful with our Great Dane! She was prompt, kind and patient with her. She was very in tune with our pups needs during their walks, and was so mindful on the very hot days to take it slow or return for water when needed. Our pup is known to have some undesirable behavior on walks, and Emily came a few days early to meet her, learn her nuances and took notes so she was prepared to manage it. Looking forward to working with Emily again!”

About: I have been in the caring business since my teenage years - babysitting my younger siblings, caring for my family dog, running a summer enrichment program for at risk youth, caring for horses at a dude ranch and a western suburbs farm, minding many friends' dogs, and wrangling my own two senior dogs - brother and sister, now 14 years old. (But, so rambunctious for their first 10+ years). I love dogs and will care for your dog just as you would. One of my dogs is now blind and the other requires daily subcutaneous fluids so I am willing and able to help out with any of your pet's special needs as well..... I know how stressful it can be to ensure a routine is kept. Pet first aid and CPR certified. I am currently on a full time job hunt in marketing analytics and very available (with notice) to care for your dogs most days and evenings as I can search and do freelance work remotely. Depending on your dog's needs I can usually provide bathroom breaks every 4 hours in between errands, etc. My calendar will be updated to show days I plan to be away. At this time, I can care for pets in my client's home. I do need to bring my dogs for the overnight portion of the stay but will keep them separate in a room/space of your choosing during the evening (and on bedroom floor at night). They are very dog friendly just very sleepy and do well snoozing someplace quiet.

About: We're a happy family looking to make your furry friend a member when they're here! Growing up with cats and dogs established my love of animals. My childhood dog made it to 17, and taught me a lot about handling senior animals. My wife and I currently have a 3 year old Shiba named Mikki. Shibas are notoriously intelligent and stubborn, which means we have needed to do our research. We believe this definitely helps us handle stubborn dogs, as well as finding fun methods to keep them engaged. We have been taking the utmost care with cleaning and sanitation of all surfaces, and require masks for all meets, pickups+drop offs. We also use dog safe wipes for paws and any other areas that need tending after walks. We have 7 day availability, and flexible hours for your needs. As this is our full-time job, we focus solely on our guests! They get walks 4x a day, with pee breaks in between. We are less than 5 minutes from the Quarry St dog park in Quincy, and frequently bring pups for meets/ playtime. If your dog requires any special attention, please let us know. With a large open living space, dogs gets the freedom to run around and play. They are only crated for timeouts or bedtime if that's how they generally sleep. Everyone is separated for drinking and feeding time. We follow your schedule as much as possible so they can adjust as easily as possible. Dogs have free roam of the house, and are let out to play and do business every 1-2 hours for as long as they want in our backyard. Our yard is fully fenced in, with a lot of open space and toys for everyone to play. We are always keeping an eye on them, and they are never left alone outside.

During walks, I’ll always be mindful of our surroundings, weather conditions, traffic, and interactions with other animals.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Animals love me and I love them. I don’t have any pets at this time and would love to help care for yours. I’m currently self employed and create my own schedule which is very flexible. I have plenty of free time to care for pets. No worries for frequent potty trips. My home has a fenced in yard so perfect for playtime. Lots of birds and squirrels parading around for amusement. Very comfortable and reliable to come to your home as well.
About: I have worked with all types and ages of dogs and cats for over a decade. Family, friends, co-workers, and neighbors have relied on and trusted me to care for, feed, walk, bathe, and play with their dogs and or cats, and it has been a considerable joy to make so many new furry friends! I currently work two part-time jobs, and my hours are mostly flexible. So I am available for morning, afternoon, and night walks, feedings, and check-ins. I prefer to dog-sit and dog-walk in the dog’s most comfortable environment. I’d rather look after a dog in their own home/space, and walk them in their neighborhood than to take them to unknown territory. I am able to visit, feed, and walk them multiple times a day.
About: Finding someone you trust with your pet is a big decision, so I focus on providing safe, reliable, and compassionate care every time. I’ve spent over 10 years working with animals in a variety of professional settings, including as a dog groomer, and at an animal hospital. Those experiences have taught me how to safely handle dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, while also recognizing when something doesn’t seem quite right. Whether your dog loves long walks, prefers to stop and sniff every tree, or just needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and treated like one of my own. I understand that every pet is different, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours happiest. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and believe communication is just as important as great pet care. You can expect plenty of updates and photos from me! I know our pets are family, and my goal is to make every walk a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your dog. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend! I’m currently a full-time student, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the week. Since my classes are planned in advance, I can easily work around them to provide reliable walks and visits. I enjoy being active, so spending time with dogs fits naturally into my routine. Whether your pet needs a midday walk, an evening outing, or care while you’re at work, I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that meets your needs. Your dog’s safety will always be my top priority. With over 10 years of experience, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ll use safe leash-handling practices, stay aware of our surroundings, and always treat your dog with patience and care. I’ll also keep you updated after each walk, so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands.
About: I've taken care of all different types of animals since I was a kid, in addition to watching my family and friends dogs from time to time. I currently work full time but am somewhat flexible with my hours and ability to care for your pets! *Boarding: If you're looking to board with me please be aware that I live in an apartment and have two cats of my own. If you do board with me I am more than happy to keep my cats in a different bedroom in my apartment. I can also assure you that even though I don't have a yard, there are plenty of places in the area where I live to take your dog on walks and let them run around if needed. I currently work from 8 am - 5pm Monday through Thursday and until 12 on Fridays. I leave for work around 7:30 and would be able to take dogs for a walk, feed them and watch them in a monitor during the day and take them out again at 5:30 when I would get home. Boarding would typically work best on the weekends for me but it can be manageable during the week as well if needed. Since I do not have a yard I would either walk your dog around my neighborhood or bring them to a local dog park where the area is fenced insuring a safe environment for your fur-baby!
