Dog Walking East Boston

“Theresa was a great dog walker for our Portuguese Water Dog. Would definitely recommend and use again!”

About: During college I spent my senior year being a service dog trainer and developed extensive knowledge of behavior modification techniques for dogs, taught dogs’ commands based on specific client needs, employed positive reinforcement with animals, including using the “clicker training” method, voice rewards, and food rewards. I’m currently transitioning between careers, so I have plenty of time and flexibility. That means I can sit, walk, play, or take your animal on potty breaks anytime. I adopted two kittens about 4 years ago and have provided them lots of play time, stimulation, wet/dry food, and a water fountain to make sure they stay hydrated.

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have taken care of my extended families dogs and friends dogs for about five years I have a pretty flexible schedule for the summer and have a lot of availability! Please reach out if you have any questions or need a walker! I have a fenced in yard and I have dogs that are very well trained and friendly to both people and other dogs they meet.

About: Apart from living with dogs my entire life, I've also pet sitted for several families on multiple occasions, and have volunteered as a dog walker at local shelters since I was in elementary school. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, including my own parents insane border collie in New York, who loves the dog park to the point of unsettling passion and will never take a walk without scaling the forest floor like spiderman. I am currently work part-time and am a full-time graduate student. Fortunately, all of my academic obligations at this time are remote, so I'm quite flexible! Safety was always a huge part of my pet experience growing up, as many of my dogs and cats loved to defend our property or escape into the woods. From entering and exiting the home to walking, I am extremely cautious, always double-checking and never walking without a leash.

About: I am located in South Boston! I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind and have had pups of my own for many years. I have grown up taking care of neighbors and friends dogs which typically included play time, bathing, walking, etc., I am a recent graduate student from Boston College and and now currently work full-time! I absolutely adore all dogs and truly enjoy spending time going on walks, going to the park, or just giving them attention! My schedule allows for some flexibility including early morning hours! Please reach out if you are looking for someone to assist you with your fur baby and I would be more than happy to answer any of your questions! If there is anything specific you would like for me to do while watching your pup, I am more then willing to make that happen. I would typically go on a nice walk and play around with your fur baby which could be fetch, tug of war, or just some belly rubs to show them love.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was old enough to care for my pets growing up, from German Shepards to chihuahuas! I currently have 3 cats also that rely on me to feed them, and care for them! I’m currently a stay at home mom with a very open schedule! I find animals very therapeutic, so I’m looking to help take care of your pets, give them a ton of love and give me something to do while also making some extra money for my family! We do live in an apartment but it has a fenced in yard, I often walk to the park down the street with the kids so we could take your pet along with us! Our neighbor downstairs has a friendly dog who could be a play mate! I have 3 cats, I can easily crate your dog if needed. My house is a free for all if your dog is allowed on your couch then they allowed on mine too🥰

About: Experienced dog owners who will take your dog to the beach multiple times on a daily basis! I work from home so my schedule is very flexible! I work from home so I have a lot of time to provide multiple walks and extra care for all the pups! Wollaston Beach is a 5 minute walk from my place, so I’m able to provide a scenic walk for dogs! I live in a safe apartment building with ample walking space, have a spacious balcony & live 5 minutes away from the beach! My 1/1 apartment is roomy enough for any sized dog!

“Michelle was perfect- very reliable and communicative. Our dog did great with her!”

About: Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to take care of their pets whenever they're away. I love getting to know each animal's personalities and make sure they're comfortable and taken care of. My schedule is pretty flexible since I work from home right now. I have a vehicle so it's easy for me to get around the city. I try to make sure pets are very comfortable and know not to push boundaries if they are not familiar with me. A gradual introduction is always good and I am very patient with them.

About: I love all kinds of dogs—big dog person here. I’ve taken care of pups around my neighborhood for years, walking them, feeding them, and making sure they’re happy, healthy, and getting plenty of attention. Whether it’s playtime or just hanging out, I’m all about keeping dogs comfortable and cared for while their people are away. It fits in around my class schedule for school, usually early morning or late afternoon are the times that work best for me to care for pets. I have a very good sense of what an pet needs, and listen to the instructions the owner has left in order to care for them well.

About: I've had a dog of my own for about 10 years, and I’ve also cared for other dogs for up to 5 days at a time. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I love being around dogs—they genuinely make me happy. I’m comfortable with puppies and senior dogs and always try to adjust to each dog’s pace and needs. I treat every dog like my own and aim to make them feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I work remotely with flexible hours, so I’m available for regular walks throughout the day. I love taking breaks to get outside, and walking dogs is the perfect way to add movement and joy to my daily routine. I do my best to follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of playtime and affection (if they want it!), and keep their space clean. I respect the client’s home, leave everything as I found it, and always keep in touch with updates and photos.

About: I love dogs, they each have unique personalities. I do understand that our pets are very special and deserve great care. I am prompt and I will communicate with you. Recently I have dog sat and dog walked a pair of Samoyed a pair of dogs quite often. They love watching me cook. They can sit, stay, and give paw. Very routine and food driven. Great with kids and gentle. I have availability all day every other weekend and Tuesday and Thursday nights. I love dog walking, being outdoors. If your dog does well with children my availability is more open. I will feed them, give them water, give their medications, take for walks, and monitor to make sure they are not destructive of any items. Also I give very good pet cuddles.

“Scout had a great first week with Aaron - she seemed happy with the walks and very comfortable with him. From the human side, he's a good and responsive communicator, and responsible around scheduling and closing up the house. He clearly loves dogs and has a good way with them. Thumbs up!”

About: Hello! I am a recent Wellesley College graduate but I come from a big family in Austin, Texas. I've looked after dogs, cats, plants, and plenty of farm animals. I adore animals and have two dogs of my own back home. I have great communication and I am willing to send regular updates and photos to give owners peace of mind. I read and respond to signals that animals give attentively so your pets will be in great hands! I am looking forward to caring for your homes and pets. I am currently looking for jobs before starting grad school in the fall. I babysit occasionally, but I am often not away for more than 3-5 hours. My home is currently being renovated so I will not be hosting any pets there at the moment. I am happy to consider in home pet care after renovations are finished.

“Amanda is definitely going to be my go to sitter. She makes Buffy feel so loved, and it’s clear that she really cares for all the animals in her care!”

About: Hello and welcome to my profile. My name is Monica and I am the proud fur-mom to a 3 year old golden named Mango. I am on rover to help with the needs of pet care as I know it can be quite expensive these days and am looking for something to do in my free time. I currently work at an Animal Hosptial, looking to expand my time with animals. I have 7 years of animal care, including 4 of those years working at a doggie daycare/kennel environment which has allowed me to understand dogs better, and how their body language/behavior is when it comes to being in a kennel environment and in a home environment. My dog Mango and I love to go on walks whether it’s to her favorite swimming area, or just in a field to run around and play ball. We are always out walking no matter the weather! I have experience taking care of animals ranging from puppies all the way to seniors. I have experience doing medications as well for both cats and dogs. I would love to help be a pet sitter for your wonderful fur babies. Don’t hesitate to reach out 😊 Always can fit in time to take your furbaby on a walk if they are energetic, or sit at home and give them attention if they are a homebody. Always love playing ball and being outside no matter the weather. For my own home I do not have a fenced in yard but my golden has a electric fence that she has been trained on to stay in the area when we are outside playing, or just enjoying the weather. If a fenced in yard is something you don’t have, I am always willing to find a quiet dog area to let your pup run, or even be able to take on a nice long walk to burn out their energy
