Dog Walking in Acton

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats in my life. I also volunteered at an animal shelter, feeding and playing with cats, feeding and playing with dogs, and feeding and playing with rabbits! I am a full-time teacher, so I have availability in the summer, weekends, and on school breaks. Also, I am available afternoons for walks or feedings. When I am going in to other’s homes, I am respectful of their space. I will make sure it is as clean as it was when I arrived.

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, I understand that every pet has their own personality, needs, and routines. I’ve raised my own dog and cat from puppyhood and kittenhood into healthy, happy adults, and I’ve also cared for the pets of friends, neighbors, and family over the years—ranging from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra support. Whether it’s daily walks, medication administration, special diets, or just lots of love and playtime, I tailor my care to ensure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I treat every animal like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection. Your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priorities. Ready to spoil your pets with love, attention, and treats (if allowed)! Pet care is woven into my daily routine. I work from home, which means I’m able to give pets consistent attention, companionship, and care throughout the day—not just during scheduled visits. Whether it’s my own dog and cat or pets I’m caring for, I build my day around walks, feedings, playtime, and snuggles. Being home also means I can keep a close eye on pets, quickly respond to their needs, and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved all day long. Pet care isn’t just something I do—it’s a lifestyle I truly enjoy. In my home, pets have plenty of space to roam, relax, and feel right at home. I have a calm, pet-friendly environment with one gentle dog and one laid-back cat who both get along well with others. While my yard is unfenced, all outdoor time is supervised, and walks are part of the daily routine. I make sure visiting pets get the same love, structure, and attention as my own—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or just a quiet spot to nap.

“Excellent communication, very reliable. Would certainly hire again. Thank you, Sawyer.”

“She was awesomely friendly with my dog and came at the last minute. I really appreciate you. Thank you for me in teddy bear.”

“Annie did a great job walking my nervous dog for the first time. He usually takes some time to warm up to strangers but looks to have had a great time with her from the start!”

Rebecca W.

“Pilar has been so helpful. She is always very responsive and available. She has been wonderful with Baxter. There was a time when she was walking him and he heard shooting range and panicked. Instead of bringing him right back inside without a walk she sat with him and calmed him down and then was able to get him to walk again. He is clearly comfortable with her and enjoys his time with her!”

Ariel M.

“Liv did a great job taking care of Tyson today. She gave him a long walk and he seemed very happy. I would book her for an afternoon dog walking.”

Julie L.

“Sarah was excellent with communication and sending pictures while checking in on Kona while we were away! She took her for walks, played in the yard and gave her lots of belly rubs and even persuaded our picky eater to finish meals. We will definitely be reaching out to Sarah for future needs! Thanks Sarah!”

“Nathan was AWESOME! He was available the day of for a last minute walk that really helped us out and gave us peace of mind that our dog was taken care of. He was quick to respond, sent us awesome pictures and a thorough write up of his time with our dog. Thank you so much Nathan!!!”

About: Adopting Benny, our now 6-year-old Australian Shepherd mix, has been one of the most meaningful and rewarding experiences of our lives. He came to us as a rescue, full of potential but also in need of patience, consistency, and care. Australian Shepherds are known for their intelligence, energy, and sensitivity—and Benny is no exception. From daily walks and mental stimulation to routine training and lots of affection, caring for him has been a constant, joyful commitment. He thrives on structure and attention, and it’s been incredibly rewarding to watch him grow more confident and connected as the years go by. Benny has taught us so much about resilience, communication, and the powerful bond that forms between a pet and their family. He’s not just a pet—he’s truly part of our family. Pet care is a daily routine for me. I'm the one who feeds, brushes, spends time with Benny and walks him on a daily basis. I provide nothing but the best for Benny. He gets toppers on his food, supplements, daily attention and walks. I'am trustworthy, reliable and will treat your animals as if they were my own.

“I can’t speak highly enough about what an amazing job Rachael did for us. I would absolutely recommend her and higher her again! Give her a try you won’t be disappointed!”

“Maddy is AMAZING! From the very first day she started, we had ongoing open communication about my dogs and their needs. She was very thorough, made she every thing she did was okay with me, and took exceptional care of my two little dogs. Maddy gave detailed reports every day and included photos from their walks. She showed both of my dogs so much care and love. She spent extra time after each walk to sit with them and give them cuddles and kisses. I would see my dogs on the camera get so excited every time she arrived. I felt so comfortable giving her access to my home and to my babies. I seriously would keep her forever if i could lol! If you need someone that is trustworthy, caring, and attentive, Maddy is your go-to girl! Thank you for everything Maddy! Ollie and taco will miss you! 💕💕💕”

“Ava is a dogs best friend. I am so glad my wife and I chose her As our first Rover experience. We will definitely be hiring her on a weekly basis to take Otis out when we are away! she took lots of pictures, catered to Otis’s specific needs, and when he wasn’t tired yet, went above and beyond and walked him even further! He is fast asleep on our couch, feeling happy and tired from his fulfilling day! We hope that they build and even stronger connection. THANK YOU AVA!!”

About: I have had pet dogs all my life, and I’ve done dogsitting throught middle school, high school, and college. I have cared for all ages of dogs- puppies and older dogs. I am able to work in the mornings every day, from 7-11 AM. I am available in the afternoon on Tuesdays, Fridays, and weekends. I am also available in the evening on Mondays and Wednesdays. I have a Great Dane who has an electric fence, and gates inside as he can be a rowdy greeter. I often play with him out in the yard.

“I can´t feel happier and more satisfied with Saemus walking and taking care of Lola! Lola is my beautiful doggie, a pit bull mix (almost 70 lbs.) who was used, abused and abandoned twice... until we found each other 4 years ago in a shelter in Boston :) Even though she has done a lot of progress, her anxiety is still so high, specially when she meets a person for the first time. Her energetic behavior has made difficult to find a person who wants to take care of her, or just wants to walk her (even using Rover app). Truly. And now is when Saemus appears. He was so sweet and patient with her since the first moment, making her to feel more relaxed and comfortable. He walked and played with Lola until she got exhausted... Definitely, I recommend him to everyone and especially if your doggie needs a lot of care and attention. Additionally, he was so flexible and kind with me. He has been like a gift... I am moving back home to Europe with Lola at the end of this October. Hopefully I would had contacted Saemus a lot of months ago!! But definitely until our flight, I will reach him every time I need someone to stay with Lola. Saemus is absolutely the best sitter you can have!”
