“Hi Anthony-I appreciated you being available in short notice. And I’m grateful for the time you gave on Friday. I am going to cancel the bookings for this week though because the extra dog fee was more than I am used to paying for a 30 minute walk. It has nothing to do with you - you were great.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a home full of pets, including dogs, cats, and even a bunny. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I love getting to know each pet’s individual personality. I currently work in the service industry at a resturuant in South End, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having someone to keep them company, i’m happy to provide attentive, reliable care while you’re away. I work in the service industry at a resturuant in South End, so my schedule is flexible and varies from week to week. This allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on the week. I will always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. i’ll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any other routines that help your pet feel comfortable. Every pet is unique, and i’ll provide patient, attentive care based on their individual needs. i’ll also treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and have experience with caring for pets of different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also dog-sat for friends and family over the years, including caring for dogs in my own home. I’ve also gone through extensive training for my own dog and feel confident with my skills in walking and caring for any dog, any size. I have experience in medication administration as well… And I almost forgot to mention — I’m a highly experienced cuddler who gives LOTS of love, belly rubs, and attention. 🤭❤️ I’m a full-time work-from-home mom, so I have PLENTY of flexibility to provide personalized care and attention for your pet throughout the day! If your pup wants to go outside 10 times a day, well… so be it! 😂 Our backyard is fully fenced, so there’s plenty of room for playtime, zoomies, and potty breaks. And if your pup would rather soak up some sunshine, relax, or have a little alone time, we’ve got plenty of that too. 🤭 I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal routine and give them the attention, activity, and downtime they need to feel comfortable and right at home while they’re with us. I have a 4-year-old neutered American Bully named Kash. Kash is extremely friendly and loves other dogs, although he can be a little enthusiastic when meeting new friends! Because of that, I introduce dogs slowly and carefully and always prioritize safe, supervised interactions. Your pup will NEVER be expected to interact with Kash if they aren’t comfortable. Their safety and comfort are always my priority. Kash is also crate trained and has no problem having some quiet time when needed. I also have gates that allow me to comfortably separate the upstairs and downstairs areas of our home. This gives me the flexibility to let both dogs enjoy some freedom while still giving each pup their own space. I also have a 9-month-old daughter, so I’m especially mindful of making sure that any dog in our home is comfortable around babies and young children. Supervision, safety, comfort, and a happy environment are extremely important to me. My goal is for every pup to feel safe, relaxed, and right at home while they’re in my care.❤️
“Jacqueline was amazing. She was wonderful with our 80 lbs puppy. She was so understanding when Rover gave the wrong address too. We will definitely use her again!”
“Dylan has been absolutely wonderful with Dolly! She’s always reliable and on time, takes her on great daily walks, and is so thoughtful about keeping me updated. I really appreciate that she lets me know if anything seems off, even little things like noticing an accident in the apartment. She consistently goes above and beyond, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing Dolly is with someone so dependable and caring. I’m so grateful to have found her!”
About: I have had dogs in my family since birth, and now care for my boy Baxter (lab/golden retriever mix). I love dogs of all shapes and sizes Taking care of animals is my number 1 priority. I have a very flexible schedule to cater to needs throughout the week at any time As a pet owner, I know that the lists of things that are off limit for any animal can be long and often different from one another. I am attentive to any specific needs your animal may have.
About: I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them is something I love. I took some vet classes in high school that helped me learn the basics! Such as their body behavior, basic handling, and how to administer medication. I also gained some experience with grooming and caring for senior dogs, as I understand older pets need extra patience and attention. I’ve trained my own dog to perform many tricks and sleep on his own, so if you have a puppy I’d be more than happy to show them some basic tricks and commands during our time together. While training takes time I’m always happy to help them learn more and build good habits. I’m currently available to do walks or pet visits in the evening where I can then on a walk or even go to the park and play. I’m a full time student and worker as well so for right now the only days I’m available are Friday and Sundays for boarding, pet sitting, and home visits and need at least a 2 day notice please! I live in an apartment where there is a little doggy park and it’s a very dog friendly environment. Inside my apartment they are able to be on the furniture and be with me at all times. I will be taking them out every 1-2 hours or if you need me to do it more often I would be more than happy to. While they are with me if you have any extra requests to have them be on the bed or keep them in their crate I will be happy to follow that.
About: I have been taking care of my dog for 6 years and have experience dogsitting for over 10years. My dog loves to have a friend over and we love to make their stay as amazing as we can. As a dog owner, I want to provide the relief that your dog is well taken care of of while you are away 😊 I currently work from home. Your dog would get plenty of walks throughout the day as well as playtime with my dog. I also have a small courtyard they can access for potty breaks and smell breaks. I have a very small fenced in courtyard for potty breaks and just hanging out outside. I take my dog on walks multiple times a day and we have an afternoon/evening playtime session. My dog Charlie, is a gentle giant and loves guests.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
