About: With 20 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I've had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of animals, including: dogs, cats, birds, turtles, and hamsters. I understand the unique needs of each species, from providing enriching activities for dogs, offering individualized care for cats, to creating safe, stimulating environments for birds, turtles, and hamsters. Whether it's ensuring proper habitat conditions, managing dietary needs, administering medications, or simply offering companionship, I approach each pet with a deep understanding of their behavior. I'm committed to fostering the well-being and happiness of every pet I care for, tailoring my services to meet their specific needs and personalities. I've built a flexible and reliable pet care routine that allows me to give your pets the attention and care they deserve without disrupting my own schedule. On a daily basis, I make time for early morning walks, feeding, and playtime, ensuring that your pets start their day happy and active. I also structure my evenings to include additional walks or cuddle sessions, and I'm available for drop-in visits throughout the day as needed. On a weekly basis, I plan regular check-ins, grooming sessions, and any other specific care tasks, such as administering medications or cleaning habitats. I will be attentive to your pets' needs without the rush, ensuring they receive the best care and companionship every day. My top priorities are ensuring their safety, comfort, and well-being. I create a secure environment by pet-proofing the space, removing potential hazards, and making sure they have room to explore, play, and relax. Trust is key, so I build a strong bond with each pet through consistency, gentle interaction, and routine care. In a client's home, I take extra care to respect their space, keeping everything familiar for their fur babies. Whether in my home or yours, I strive to offer a loving, safe, and stress-free environment where animals feel happy, secure and cared for at all times.
“Rachel was a huge help when I was out of town for the weekend, walking and feeding my girl who has some behavioral issues. She was communicative, kind, and most of all - great with my pup! Thanks for everything and will definitely book again!”

“Alexander came through for us when we needed a reliable walker on short notice. Our dog took to him immediately. We appreciated how well he communicated with us, and how he was always on time. We would happily recommend him to anyone looking for a dog walker.”

“Our dog just loved William. We also liked him right away. We scheduled him to walk our dog for 2 days when a relative was housesitting. She reported that William had a great rapport with our dog who was always happy to see him (and he does not have a good rapport with all humans; William is one of his favorites.”


About: Hello! My name is Annie and I have been a dog lover for my entire life, at one point my family owned 5 dogs! I graduated from UMass Amherst in 2017 and during my 4 years there I was a volunteer at a greyhound rescue that took in retired racing greyhounds. During my time there I learned how to care for dogs with many different needs and temperments and I discovered a passion for taking care of dogs. I currently live in an house in Oak Bluffs with my 8 year old goldendoodle Maya and 4 year old labradoodle Luna. I have a fully fenced in yard and work from home so I am able to be with your pups all day and give them lots of attention, potty breaks, and playtime. My husband and I also walk the dogs together frequently and we would be happy to take your pups out on walks as well! I am currently working full time from home so your pup will be able to chill with me all day! My older dog is very relaxed and likes to sleep most of the day but my younger dog LOVES to play and if you have a dog that loves to play I have a big backyard for them to play in! I have a larger fenced in back yard that is great for dogs to relax or play in. When walking outside I will always have your dogs on a leash.
“Stephanie did an amazing job walking Mookie! She was incredibly helpful and showed so much patience during their first meeting, making sure Mookie felt comfortable and at ease. It was clear she genuinely cared about making the experience great for both of us. I would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog walker. Mookie can’t wait for his next walk with her!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs—large, medium, and small—since I was 10 years old. In addition to raising 3 golden retrievers and assisting in the delivery and caretaking of an accidental litter of 10 puppies, I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for several families in my home state. I’m currently working from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m available to play with, walk, cuddle, and love on your dog multiple times a day! I am a responsible, clean, and communicative law student who will take great care of your four-legged family members. Expect lots of photos and videos to accompany any walks or visits.
“I had a great experience with Hannah as a dog walker! She communicated promptly to coordinate everything and took my puppy Luna's schedule into consideration, which I really appreciated. She arrived right on time, took Luna on a nice walk, and sent lots of pictures throughout. Luna looked so happy and comfortable in every photo. It was clear she was in great hands, and I’d happily book with Hannah again!”

Annie is absolutely fabulous! She is very flexible and communicative and was willing to come meet my pup ahead of time in short notice. My dog loves her and is a big puppy full of energy, which she handles beautifully. 10/10 would recommend and will be using Annie for future needs!

Pebbles was in great hands the entire weekend I was away. The communication was excellent - I got regular updates and always felt in the loop. His routines were followed perfectly, making the whole thing stress-free. Will definitely be booking again and highly recommend! Thanks, Elliot!

Kira was amazing! She helped me out on very short notice, and I couldn’t be more grateful. It was a hot day, and she made sure Bebe was comfortable and okay before leaving my house. I highly recommend her, and I’ll definitely be reaching out again whenever I need someone to walk Bebe! 🐾

Maddy was amazing! She was so sweet and gentle with our nervous dog. Arrived on time, took him to all his favorite spots, and sent lots of pictures. Her communication was great throughout! We felt so relaxed knowing she was taking care of our dog! Absolutely will ask her to come by again!

Quinlan has walked my dog twice now, and I've had a great experience. He's punctual and communicative and great with my dog. My first and second walks were quite some time apart and Quinlan handled re-introduction and some initial hesitation from my dog really well. He reported back to me to ease my anxiety and I appreciate and would recommend Quinlan to anyone looking for prompt and positive experience.

Megan is the best! She took such good care of Benny while we were away and Benny loves her. Megan is so responsible, trustworthy and we feel so incredibly lucky that we found her. I will arrange our vacation schedule around her schedule just to make sure that she will be the one to take care of Benny while we travel! Thanks Megan!
