Dog Walking Dorchester

“Shaelyn is great with my dog and always takes time to play with him and make sure he gets enough walk time and attention! She is very responsive and is always happy to help.”

“We have never had a dog walker before, but with some life changes, there are long days. I had heard of rover and decided to check it out. Our need was short notice… the next day. I reached out to a few people and Justin was the first to respond. Eager, pleasant and incredibly easy to communicate with. It can be an uncomfortable thought having a stranger go into your home. I never felt worried with Justin. He just has a way that makes you feel at ease. The first visit, I knew he had this job for a reason. When I saw the first pictures, it was clear he had fantastic instincts and a way with dogs. We have booked him at a minimum weekly since and it has been the best experience. It is cool watching the dogs faces change in the pictures as they get to know him. Justin is Waylon’s (my black mouth cur dog) BFF❤️ I truly cannot say enough good things about Justin. He is just a fantastic human.”

About: I've loved animals from a young age. It all started with black labs for duck hunting. I was a vet assistant and horseshoer for many years. I've had dozens of personal pets throughout my life, and am now looking to love on and help care for other people's furry friends. I am recently retired and need something to occupy my time and give me purpose. When thinking about what I'm passionate about, animals is what is first to come to mind. I am up early and start my day with a walk. I am home most everyday and have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your pets needs. I have a fenced, clean yard with a covered patio. Plenty of space to roam and run. There is a water hose for plenty of water available. I have a glass back door looking outside. I can bring them inside the house as needed.

About: I have been working with dogs since I was 12 years old, I’ve been walking, grooming, feeding, and everything in between for 6 years, I also have experience with 6 week old puppies, as I watched one all day and overnight for months. I’m currently in school, but my schedule still offers plenty of flexibility throughout the week! I do my best to accommodate each pet’s needs and work with owners to find walk times that fit both of our schedules. I’m happy to discuss availability in advance and provide reliable, consistent care for your pets! I have 3 crate trained dogs, 2 medium, 1 small, I feed them, groom them, walk them, and let them outside to our fenced backyard regularly. We also have plenty of dog toys and space for them to play.

“She was wonderful and very helpful. She was kind, reliable, and took great care of my dog. It was a pleasure meeting her, and I really appreciate her help. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog walker.”

About: I love dogs! I have three of my own—if I could, I would have 300. I’ve been walking dogs and caring for animals for over 30 years, and my experience spans all ages, temperaments, and needs. I’ve done everything from bottle feeding puppies to providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs and dogs with medical needs, including administering medications and following special routines. I’m comfortable handling rambunctious, high-energy dogs who need structure, exercise, and patience, as well as shy or anxious pets who benefit from a calm, reassuring presence. My animal experience isn’t limited to dogs. I’ve also cared for horses and rabbits, so I understand the importance of species-specific care, safety, and attention to detail. I treat every animal as if they were my own, focusing on their comfort, routine, and well-being. Whether your pet needs lots of activity, extra medical attention, or quiet companionship, I’m dedicated to providing reliable, loving care you can trust. I’m a teacher, which means I have reliable availability in the evenings on weekdays. I’m also fully available during school holidays, long breaks, and throughout summer vacation. During those times, I have flexible daytime and extended availability to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. If you have a pet who needs consistent evening care during the school year or more frequent attention during breaks and summer, I’m happy to help and keep their routine as smooth as possible. When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care needs. Dogs receive regular walks, playtime, and quiet rest, and I always prioritize comfort, especially for senior dogs or those with medical needs. I take introductions slowly when needed and make sure every pet feels secure and respected. My goal is for your pet to feel like part of the family while you’re away. Caring for Pets in Your Home When caring for pets in their own home, I respect both your space and your pet’s routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and household guidelines. I understand how important consistency is, especially for anxious pets, seniors, and medical cases. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I leave your home clean and cared for, and your pet happy, comfortable, and safe.

My wife and I work from home, operate a professional boarding and K9 coaching business, and run a nonprofit dog rescue, so dogs are around us every day. Our routine includes scheduled feedings, walks, playtime, training, supervised outdoor time, crate/rest periods, medication when needed, and plenty of one-on-one attention. We keep a structured routine while also adjusting to each dog’s individual needs. Because we do this professionally, we’re used to managing multiple dogs while making sure each one gets the attention, supervision, and care they need. Our goal is for every dog staying with us to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while they’re away from home. I focus on providing a safe, calm, and structured environment whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home.

I’m experienced with crate use when requested, proper leash handling, and monitoring behavior to ensure pets remain safe, relaxed, and well cared for at all times.

About: I have provided pet sitting and pet walking services for over 20 years. I love the opportunity to meet new animals and their owners! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, provide cuddles and attention, play dates at dog parks, etc. I currently work part-time hours for a delivery service in Celina and Prosper, so I will make the time necessary to provide pet care services to any clients. I am only available to provide care for pets at the owners’ home, but I am willing to drive the pet to local parks, etc, for walking or play dates with other animals. I have found this is vital to the safety and security of the animal to keep them in the environment they are most familiar with.

About: I've been taking care of pups for over 15 yrs now. At first my own pups, but then I would help out friends and family with their pups while they went on vacations and/or traveled for work. My family says I have a kinship with dogs as most dogs naturally get a long with me. Sometimes I can calm the most excitable pup and have them relax in my lap. I work pretty early in the morning. I'm usually home by 10-11 am. I have a pretty good schedule regarding feeding and potty breaks. I tend to take the pups out for walking and play I have a fenced back yard and a dog park near by. I can take your fur babies to the park or on walks regularly. I currently have 2 pups myself, they are well trained and have a pretty steady routine (food and potty breaks). They get along well with other dogs, no biting or aggression. They do set boundaries though. NO humping.

“Brandon is a great housesitter and dog walker. He is very responsible and professional. I appreciate his services. You can't go wrong hiring Brandon. I will continue to use his services while in Texas. Thanks Brandon!”

About: My dad is the proud father of a sweet, but spicy, German shepherd. Two cats are also family to him. You got any more animals? Large breeds are my favorite. My home is pet free. I retired early in life, so I have ample time to raise doggos full time. Any dogs you can bring me the better. Cats too. I actually have two yards for play, a side yard as well as a back yard. I have been certified for the past eight years to do dog training as well.

About: With my love for animals, along with my bubbly and outgoing personality, I’m able to bring even the shyest animal out of their sell, giving me my the animal whisperer I currently work part time (weekends) as a nanny, but I also want to bring even more joy into my life by taking care of your fur babies weekdays! First I let the fur baby get to know me in order to create a calm, loving, happy, and peaceful environment and relationship. Secondly I then check any list and rules that the fur parents might have given me, to ensure that the fur baby is taken care of properly. Thirdly I then play and interact with the fur baby for 30 minutes so they can let out any pint up zoomies. Lastly I clean anything I have used and check that all windows and doors are closed and locked before leaving.
