Dog Walking Charlestown

About: I've grown up with and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. From tiny puppies to large lovable seniors, I've been around them all! I'll treat your pup with lots of scritches, belly rubs, and love like they're my own, all while maintaining the level of discipline you keep in your home. I'm comfortable walking on a leash, taking them to a dog park, or just hanging around at home watching whatever is on TV. Dogs are a comforting presence for me, and I'm eager to take care of yours. I'm currently unemployed and am job hunting as we speak, so my schedule is wide open! Whenever you need a caring, watchful eye over your pup, I'll be there. I live by a park, so if I'm dayboarding, there's easy access to green space. If I'm dog walking or dog sitting, I'll follow your lead. You know your pup best, so whatever rules or expectations you have, I'll ensure they're followed and maintained.

“Samantha is really good for my dog Nala, a 6y old husky. Will always text me before walk and let me know she is on her way and communication is good! Always have pictures from the walks with my girl”

Diana M.

“Emily is reliable, consistent, and flexible. She provides thorough updates of her walks with pictures and feedback. I trust her 100% to care for my one year old Maltipoo, Milo. Highly recommended!”

“Brooke is an excellent dog walker! I could tell from the moment she met my dogs, who are 2 high-energy rescues, that they felt at ease with her. She is professional, kind, and very skilled at walking my 2 crazy fur babies. We're so happy we found her!”

Ale V.

“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!”

About: I’ve been dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors since I was in elementary school. I was always the friend who was excited to take everyone’s dog on a walk, even when they were dreading it! I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and have experience with feeding, basic medications, long walks, playtime, and keeping routines consistent while owners are away. I’m a dependable, super active animal lover with just under 11 years of experience caring for dogs (walking, pet sitting, drop-ins, overnight stays). I grew up around dogs and helped raise and train my family’s 6-year-old Golden Retriever, Bear, who is the most perfect pooch in the world!! I’d love to help keep your pup active, cared for, and loved whenever you need an extra hand :) I’m currently studying for the LSAT and working part-time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and love using my free time to stay active. Dog walking and pet care fit really naturally into my routine since I already enjoy getting outside for long walks and being around animals. I’m very attentive to each dog’s routine, comfort level, and personality. I always make sure pets are fed, walked, loved, and kept safe, whether I’m at my home or a client’s. I’m comfortable following specific instructions, giving basic medications, and keeping owners updated so they know their pup is in good hands.

“Michael is very responsive, flexible and dedicated. He gives me regular update and takes dog walking to the next level. You can tell that he enjoys it. I’m a repeat client ;)”

Mac P.

“Return client here! Nicholas was, as always, incredibly helpful, very professional, and had GREAT communication. I’m extremely happy with the care he provides, and my dog is always so happy to see him. He’s my #1 go to person, and will definitely be using him again!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets most of my life and am currently a cat mom to a 2 year old tabby named Ringo. Spending time with any animal, big or small, is a huge joy of mine! I go on walks daily, so adding in your furry friend would be seamless and absolutely nothing but a treat for me! I also work remote several days a week, so can stop by to check on your pet when needed. I like to ensure that any pets I interact with are at peace and safe. I would actively seek out any boundaries that your pet is displaying and ensure that our interactions are comfortable for them.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for several years through pet sitting for family and friends, and I also volunteered with a local animal shelter, where I took dogs on “doggy day trips” for walks and time outside the shelter. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and always aim to meet each dog where they are! I have a flexible work-from-home schedule, which allows me to offer reliable weekday care including morning walks, midday check-ins, evening visits, and overnight stays when needed. I focus on calm, consistent care that helps dogs feel safe and relaxed while keeping their routine in place. Outside of pet care, I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors through walking, hiking, and fitness classes! I’m happy to follow detailed instructions and provide regular updates so you always know how your dog is doing. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine since I work from home with a flexible schedule. This allows me to reliably offer morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care during the weekdays, with some additional flexibility on weekends depending on availability. I’m looking to provide steady, dependable care that feels consistent and low-stress for both pets and their owners, rather than occasional or unpredictable bookings. I provide pet care in clients’ homes, focusing on keeping each pet comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine. I follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any specific household guidelines. For dogs, I prioritize calm, structured walks with safe leash handling, along with attention, play, and bathroom breaks based on their usual routine. For cats, I provide quiet, respectful care including feeding, litter box cleaning, fresh water, and companionship based on each cat’s comfort level. I also make sure the home is secure while I’m there and send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and doing well!

“Jenin was a great communicator and very attentive. Jenin followed directions very well and my dog really appreciated her company. On time and reliable.”

About: I have a deep love for all animals, and bond quickly with them. I'm patient and caring, as well as responsible and cautious. I over communicate and will send tons of updates, pictures and videos. I live and work downtown; I am within a few blocks of my apartment and can be flexible to walk and drop in during the day. I have ring cameras that I can set up in my home for boarding, or in your home for day visits, to give piece of mind that your pets are well looked after. I'm happy to board or visit your pets at their home! I have a city apartment with great windows, hardwood floors, lots of sunlight and tons of comfy spaces for kitties/dogs to get comfortable! I am happy visiting in your home as well, and will adjust my cadence to what your pet prefers. I can set up ring cameras to make sure your animals are happy and cared for during the day, and make sure, if they need immediate attention, I’m aware and available .

About: Taken care of dogs, cats, and reptiles ranging in all ages and sizes. Current owner of a 100 lb Bernese Mountain dog, two cats, and a gecko. I am currently working 3 days a week remotely, so I will have plenty of time to walk, care for, and play with your pets! I can do frequent walks, pet daycare, and plenty of check-ins, especially in the Downtown Boston area. I have a friendly Bernese Mountain dog who mostly just sleeps all day and two cats who spend most of the day outside. I can feed, give medicine, walk, play, etc with any cat or dog who needs a home stay. Definitely lots of dog and cat toys available for use!

About: I’ve grown up walking and watching friends and families dogs. From puppies to old dogs, I’ve done it all. Just want to continue to help people and their pets have the best time and get the fun & exercise they deserve! Miss my dog so what better way than to help others with theirs! I work part-time in sports, so my schedule can vary. Some weeks can be busy, some can be completely free. Whenever I’m free, especially weekdays, I’m always available to help. Comfortable providing what the dogs need for exercise, whether that’s walking, fetch, tug of war, etc. I’ve watched dogs of all ages and sizes, so I have done it all.

“Megan is great! She took care of our Yorkie, Mochi, for two walking sessions, and Mochi was always so happy when she returned home. Our puppy tends to be reactive during walks, so we provided Megan with a dog walker guide. Megan carefully read through the guide before the first walk and communicated openly and proactively before each walk. We strongly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”
