Dog Walkers in Charlemont, MA

“Daniel is a great ssest to have as a dog owner. I've had great luck with Rover, but Danielle's by far the best. He's punctual and communicative even if this owner isn't always 😁”

“Danielle is the best dogwalker I've ever had. She's very attentive and knows each dogs special needs. They love her and go crazy when they hear her car in the driveway. I couldn't be happier!”

About: I gained a majority of my pet care experience through owning family pets. Small and large breeds alike, both cats and dogs (some mice and a bunny at some point, too!). I spent a few years as a dog groomer as well, which afforded me additional experience learning behavioral cues and how to safely handle and interact with pets other than my own. I've trained the dogs I have/had but I am not certified in that regard. I have a husband at home, infant son, 12 year old daughter, and our furry friends; a golden retriever/chow mix and a little short haired kitty. Both are wonderful (aren't they all, though) and will be eager to play with your furry loved ones, although my cat keeps to herself and spends her time in a separate floor of the house when other pets are here. Your pets are my family's #1 priority when in our care. We want to make sure they have plenty of fun during their stay and get lots of love and treats! I am currently a SAHM (stay at home mama) and work remotely so I have plenty of time for furry friends! They will never be left alone without someone home to care for and play with them. We have a large backyard, though not fenced in (yet). We do have a large lead in the yard which allows for 50ft of free roaming any direction and plenty of room to run and play. We live in a very safe neighborhood that can be utilized for walks.

About: I love dogs and taking care of them no matter the size. I am available 7 days a week any time of day. I will take care of them in my own home weather it be just for a few hours or the day or the week I'm available. I do have my own dogs who are very friendly. I have a nice backyard great for playing catch relaxing in a dog pool or just running around. I have owned dogs my whole life I would give them baths brush there hair clean there ears cut there nails and always showed them love and will help take care of your furry friend as well. I'm a stay at home mom so I'm available all the time except when I'm doing pick up and drop offs for my kids at school. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs who can keep your fur baby company and can easily separate the dogs to keep them all safe

About: 5 years ago my family had gotten a puppy (jack Russell, beagle, terroir, Pitt bull mix). My puppy is a big baby, and is scared of everything. From flies to the wind. But he also can be a bit mean and over protective about his belongings. I was able to find ways around him being overly protective about his things. I was the main person to get up early to take him out in the mornings, throughout the day, and at night. We then a year later got his sister from a different litter from the same mom and dad. She is the complete opposite. She is a loving dog. She always wants to cuddle and loves to play and have all the attention to her. Since I was little I’ve always loved dogs. I love playing with them and walking with them. I’m a full time nanny but have a lot of free time on my hands while the kids are at school and their activities. I’m looking for some occasional work and maybe part time opportunities. I would always make sure the pet has food and water. Make sure the environment around them is safe. And make sure to attend their needs in any way that is needed.

“I had been very anxious about going away for a long weekend with my family since we booked our stay a few weeks ago. Our boy Nicholas is now a senior guy and the last couple of years I've been too apprehensive about being away from him. I knew if I were to go he would need to remain in-home for his comfort. We decided to give Rover a try and after the very first visit Lori eased our worries immediately. She is so kind, thorough and provided as much love to him as we would if we were home. After each visit she sent wonderful videos of our boy enjoying his walks and offered reports on how he was on his walks and how he was eating/drinking. This was THE most wonderful service and cannot thank Lori enough!”

“Sawyer does great walking Eli. He just adores her. She’s very professional and great about checking in and sending pics!! Thank you Sawyer for taking care of my baby!!!!”

“She cares for every animal as if they are her own. Our dog is beside herself every time she sees Merideth, and our family is always thrilled when she is available to care for our beloved girl. The peace of mind we experience knowing our girl is so well loved and cared for is so important to us.”

About: I am an active 20 something animal loving gal. Throughout college, I dog walked and house sat very regularly. Now I take on more long term house sitting gigs, but I am open to new drop in/dog walking clients. I am comfortable and have experience with all indoor animals (big and small) and some outdoor critters (think chickens, goats, etc.). I have familiar and comfortable with the needs of puppies and older dogs, I have experience taking care of both. Currently, I work part time so I an free throughout the day to visit your furry friends while you’re at work. Additionally, I don’t have many responsibilities at home (no fur babies or kiddos), so I have a generally flexible schedule for housesitting. I am comfortable caring for animals with any kind of needs. I am adamant about clear communication with owners to understand how to best care of their fur babies and keep them safe. I reciprocate this communication when caring for your fur babies and try my best to stay in regular contact with owners.

About: I've taken care of animals all shapes and sizes since I can remember. Growing up my only job was to make sure my fur babies were fed and loved unconditionally. I would go to a friend of the family and help her with her pit bull and (several) greyhounds. I've worked at kennels from a young age and have had my own share of birds, mice, fish, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and chinchillas as well as dogs and cats. The home has only been without pets for around 7 months now and I would love to dedicate some of my time to people who need genuine love and care for their fur babies! I do not have a job, I am around all of the time! I can be there any time day or night! You name it. I do not have a fenced in yard, however all of the neighborhood doggies are very very friendly. I have a decent sized yard and live next to multiple fields and grassy areas.

“Piper and Sky loved meeting Meaghan and they had a great walk.”

“Elysse has been petsitting my 3 dogs and 1 cat for the past 3 years. Before I found Elysse, I used 3 different sitters who were not trustworthy or reliable. Elysse has been extremely trustworthy and most definitely reliable! I work rotating day and night shifts as a nurse and needed to find someone who could be flexible. Elysse has been very flexible and I don't have to worry if my dogs are being let out or if they are being fed. I am very happy that I have been able to rely on Elysse for the past 3 years, and I look forward to having her come play with my dogs and cat for years to come!!”

“Emma has always gone above and beyond with my dog. Not only that but my apartment came back just how I left it! Would highly recommend.”

About: When I lived in my grandmothers house I would frequently house sit for relatives that rented out the bottom apartment. They have 2 senior dogs that needed a little extra attention and love, and a few house plants. I took care of them roughly 4 or 5 times over the years (not consecutively, so not quite an entire year of experience) so that their moms could go on vacation and recover from hospital stays. Since then, I have gone on to get a job at a Doggie Daycare facility out near Boston, where I am continuing to learn more about dog behavior and health. At my job we are trained on safety procedures & health concerns to be on the lookout for, and I have been trained to watch for body language changes. I am currently looking for something to fill my time during the beginning of the week. On weekends and later on in the week I commute to Boston for my job at the doggie daycare. I am also flexible with my weekend dates, so with enough notice I can move almost anything around. I can easily crate a dog if needed for safety of any kind. My position at the daycare is to constantly be on the lookout for changes in behavior and mood, so you can entrust that I will always have your pups safety as priority number one. I am also well versed in being able to reward the good behavior and ignore the bad (within reason) so as not to encourage attention seeking behavior, but still reward even the simplest well done tasks (sitting down/relaxing, playing safely).

“Great job taking care of my two crazy pups!”

“Our dogs Ripley and Savanna adored Lilly: On walk days, they would eagerly await Lilly's arrival by the front door for their thrice-weekly walks. Lilly is a warm and lovely human whom both my wife and I love. She is very helpful and dependable: we've hired her to water plants and when we're and to house and dog-sit when we have had to travel without the dogs. We really miss Lilly.”

“Shelby is an animal lover and enjoys being outside as much as possible. I highly recommend her if your pet loves adventure and caring attention.”

“Angela is very professional and an excellent communicator. She takes my dog on fun long walks and is very reliable. Roxy loves her!”

“Rosalie has taken care of our lovely but energetic young dogs and our home several times when we've gone away, for weekends and for some longer stays. We always come back to a happy healthy house and two tired Pups. Thanks Rosalie!”
