“I cannot recommend Alicyn enough! She has been an absolute lifesaver for me and my puppies. From the very first walk, I could tell she truly care about animals. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog walker, look no further—Alicyn is the best!”
“Sarah took great care of our 2 cats while we were away! She sent adorable pictures and a little summary each day, which was a great surprise! 100% would book with her again :)”
“We asked Christine to stop by and reacquaint with the pups since it’s been a while since she stayed with them. She was prompt, professional, and very kind and attentive to our dogs. They were happy to see her! As pup parents know, finding someone you can trust to stay with your fur babies is priceless. Christine is great!”
“Erin was INCREDIBLE, by far the best dog sitter we've ever had!!! She went above and beyond to communicate with us what was going on with our girl, gave her her medicine daily, and was so patient with her anxiety. Would absolutely recommend and hire again. Thank you, Erin!”
About: I've taken care of pets professionally since I was college-aged, worked in 2 kennels with additional care given via baths, nail trims, etc. Have also owned dogs and cats all throughout my life. Comfortable with all sizes. I work from home, so I'm available all day to take care of your pet! I have a 1 year old black Labrador who is so sweet and loves to play, so hopefully they can wear each other out! I have a fenced yard and a black Lab that is very sweet and friendly to keep your pet company! She's probably more excited to see them than I am! You can expect frequent potty breaks, administered medicine I'd needed, and lots of playing!
About: Hey there friends, My name is Hope. I’ve spent over 10 years walking dogs and caring for pets throughout Boston, NYC, and now as I travel all over. During this time Ive become certified in canine CPR and first aid. Safety first! Lucky for me, I only do non-pet related work on the weekends so I am entirely free to care for your pets anytime during the week. When I pet sit at other peoples homes for multiple days, besides the care and routine of the pets in need to know: when the client would like me to arrive/depart, a preferred place I can sleep, what I can and can’t use in the kitchen (salt/pepper ect), if I can/can’t use things like the washing machine if necessary, general house rules and security.
“Katie was great! I didn’t worry about our pups at all while we were gone. She even picked up mail and cleaned a couple things for us. She sent photos daily and our pups loved her!”
“Kaylie was wonderful and gave daily checks, was always on time and the dogs loved her!”
“Ximena is wonderful! She gave us plenty of support and advice as we transitioned to becoming dog owners in December 2025! Our dog Daisy loved Ximena from the very first time she met her! Ximena is very intuitive with a dog or pet’s needs. She always used positive reinforcement to guide Daisy in commands. She is always patient, gentle and kind with animals. She even gave Daisy a gift when she had moved farther away. Honestly we were so devastated that Ximena would not be able to walk Daisy anymore. We have had other dog walkers but no one as consistent and sweet as Ximena. She always sends lots of photos and detailed messages about the walks. We wish she could still be walking Daisy! We highly recommend Ximena if you need care for your pet!”
“We love Allison! She has been watching our cat Edgar for a while, and now that we have a new kitten, we knew she’d be great with both of them! Allison handles all of our (detailed!) instructions wonderfully and always goes above and beyond to make sure our cats are taken care of! 100% recommend!”
“Tess was absolutely wonderful watching my cat for a few days while I was on vacation! She made sure to send me lots of pictures and played with him while she visited!”
About: I have been walking/ taking care of dogs for many years. I have walked old dogs, young dogs, big and small. I have done transports and done overnights. I enjoy engaging the dogs in playing fetch or even just sitting on the couch and giving belly rubs. I am involved in my visits, I will feed the dogs and clean up backyard and house messes of any pet accidents that may have occurred. I will give treats and simple commands as the owners request. I will give frequent updates and pictures as requested and take good care of your pets while your are gone. i look forward to taking care of your four legged friends and you entrusting me to take good care of them.
“Jennifer was great! Will definitely ask again!”
“Laura is excellent! She came by for two meet and greets, for the visit was always on time, and the dogs were well taken care of. She's great at filling out the care card and keeping us informed of the visits. Highly recommend, I will use again!”

Hope R.
“I work as an assistant manager at a dog walking company in Boston, working with Hope for a few years. She was so genuine and sincerely cared about the dogs experience, not just getting another paycheck. Each dog was well cared for and she developed strong ties with each of them. Not to mention how enjoyable her conversation was in the office! She is truly a creative, beautiful ray of sunshine and we miss her so much at our company! Good independent contractors are hard to find, but we would have her back in a second.”
