Dog Walkers in Hopedale, MA

“Sydney took great care of my dog Tessie when she was unable to go to daycare for several months and needed drop in walks instead. She was always reliable, on time, and communicative and I would strongly recommend her to any other dog parent!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats. I have always been involved in pet care, as early as 9 years old by feeding my family cats and walking my dogs. I have experience with diabetic dogs, giving them their shots. I also have experience with anxious dogs, especially ones that come from troubled pasts. I am a college student currently home for the summer so I have plenty of time to devote to taking care of your pups or cats! I am experienced with dogs that tug on leashes or aren’t exactly well trained. I am good at reading dogs’ emotions and giving them what they need. I am also detail oriented and will make sure to follow any instructions left for me to the T.

About: I've grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. I have cared for pets while friends/family were away and enjoy doing so. I love spending time with animals. At the moment I am part time and have my daughter. My schedule is very open. Even on my work days I am free the first half of the day. However you want them taken care of is how I will do so. Always with love and kindness. I see my pets as my family.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life and have both personal and professional pet care experience. Growing up, my family had a Pit Bull, Cocker Spaniel, and Bulldog, which gave me early experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and care needs. I currently help care for a Pit Bull mix who has been part of my household for the past 5 years. Since 2021, I’ve provided pet sitting, house sitting, and nannying services for multiple families. I’ve cared for a variety of breeds and mixes, including Labrador Retrievers, Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Bulldogs, mixed breeds, and multi-dog households. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, playtime, overnight care, maintaining routines, administering medications, and providing companionship while families are away. As someone who has worked professionally with families and children for several years, I understand the importance of trust, communication, and reliability. I follow care instructions carefully, provide updates when requested, and treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. Whether your dog is energetic, senior, requires medication, or simply needs extra attention and affection, I am committed to providing safe, dependable, and compassionate care. I am currently working part time, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable care, whether that’s daily visits, walks, overnight stays, or extended house-sitting. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine, provide plenty of attention and exercise, and keep owners updated while they’re away. I am available for weekday, evening, weekend, and holiday care depending on your needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I have experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, including administering medications when needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain established routines, and provide a calm, loving environment to help reduce stress while you’re away. As someone with a professional background working with children and families, I understand the importance of trust, communication, and reliability. I treat every home with respect and every pet like a member of my own family. I provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you can feel confident that your pets and home are in good hands.

“Keri has been an amazing find for us! She responds quickly, is accommodating and flexible! Love that she tailors her approach with each dog needs! Highly recommend her!”

About: I have been a true pet lover my entire life. Now I raise two daughters who feel the same way. There has never been an animal we did not love. I have been the one all of my friends and family always rely on to help walk, feed, bathe, and take care of their pets. I have a lot of energy so love being active and going on walks and hikes and running around with a dog. I am happy to have an animal cuddled onto my lap and do not even mind being licked all over my face! I treat every pet as if it was my own. I trained two dogs from 8 weeks old, on so understand what it takes. I have had a cats my entire life and I love kitties as well! I am comfortable with big and small animals. My children are the biggest animal lovers I know and both want to be vets when they grow up. We would treat your pet like it was our own with more love than you can imagine! My girls and I are around most of the summer, as I work in a school. We are very active so we would love to be out and about walking and taking care of your dog or taking care of your cats! If I were to come to your home and take care of your pet or walk your dog, I would be very comfortable letting myself in and approaching any time of animal. I would give them all the love in the world an any care or exercise they need!

About: I have had dogs most of my life. I have adopted my dogs through shelters and understand the need for patience, care and going with the dogs flow! My neighbors utilize these skills to dog sit and walk throughout the years. I am currently working full time, but come the summer I will have availability all day! I will be able to do early morning drop ins or afternoons and weekends until mid June. Your pets safety and care is my number one priority. If you prefer more communication during the visit, I will always accommodate that. You are trusting me with your family, so I will treat them as my own family as well.

“Dana was great even when peppermint was nervous when she came she was always able to calm her and she would be able to take her on her walks”

About: I am a kind and loving human being, and I own two dogs. I have always loved dogs, and I am also a full-time teacher, so I am used to helping people. I am respectful of other peoples’ space and promise to remain calm at all times, putting your dogs interests and safety in the forefront while they are in my care I am a teacher so I am able to walk dogs morning, noon and evenings, and will often be available during weekdays and weekends throughout the summer. I can be trusted with your dogs safety, and while he or she is in my care, I will reward the dog(s) with treats and use your equipment with your discretion. I am committed to your dog’s safety and will take time to play with him or her to make the visit extra special.

About: I have 4 years of senior care experience, dog/ cat sitting, and am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese. I love being outdoors and getting to work with families who like to build routine into their fur babies’ lives. I am a morning person! I am up early and available for routine weekday walks. I enjoy caring for others, their pets, and creating a comfortable environment. I take care of an elderly woman and her 2 dogs and 2 cats. Everyday, we all go outside for fresh air and go on neighborhood walks. When her family goes away, I always house sit in the weekends and enjoy caring for her pets.

“Jennifer was great! Sent tons of photos and even left us flowers! She took our 5 months old puppy out and then spent some time with him in our home before leaving. Max was a very happy boy when we came home from work!”

Kelsey C.

“Cassandra is great! She is very reliable and has built a fantastic relationship with Maizy in a short amount of time (just a few walks). Maizy excitedly awaits her arrival every morning and goes nuts when she sees Cassandra's vehicle pull up.”

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 15, when I became responsible for my first dog. At 20, I started offering dog boarding in my home in Brazil, hosting over 10 dogs with love and dedication. Currently, I live in the United States in a small apartment with my husband, where pets are not allowed. For this reason, I provide pet care exclusively at the client’s home. I discovered Rover as a way to reconnect with the joy of being around dogs and cats, whether for a weekend or an entire month. This experience has been amazing! My husband and I care for the pets together, ensuring they receive twice the love, attention, and playtime. I work flexible hours so I definitely can stay long hours in home and provide a lot of attention for dogs and cats. I love walk and play before I need to leave them alone for a few hours. I do not host at home. We follow all the rules of the clients' homes and the animals' routines. We try our best to exercise the dogs by walking or spending time in the yard.

About: I've always felt a special connection with animals- from encounters in the redwood forests of Northern California to the coastal sanctuaries of Maine, I’ve enjoyed absorbing and reflecting on the deep wisdoms held within the animal kingdom. In my own life, cats and dogs have helped illuminate the true nature of unconditional love and I’ve been lucky to journey with many animal companions. During times in my life where it has not been possible to own a pet, I’ve been grateful to have many opportunities to care for them. I’ve cared for several dogs long-term and lived with up to 3 cats at a time (please see testimonials) and always enjoy getting to know the unique personality and ways of each animal. My approach is gentle and my goal is nourishment, safety and support with whoever I get the chance to work with. As a recent graduate of acupuncture school, I hope someday to get to work with animals in a healing capacity. I'd be truly honored to care for your beloved pet. I recently finished a graduate program and presently have wide availability, from mornings to evenings and often during the middle of the day as well. I'll care for your pets with compassion and attentiveness and honor whatever instructions and ways that you feel are best for your dog or cat. I've had experience crating, bathing, grooming, clipping, walking, running, playing etc.

About: I bring years of hands-on pet care experience and a true passion for helping dogs feel safe, understood, and loved. What sets me apart from other sitters is I provide fully customizable dog boarding experience designed to meet the unique needs of every pup. Whether your dog thrives in the comfort of their own private suite or loves social time with carefully matched playmates, we tailor every detail to ensure their stay feels safe, enriching, and truly personalized. From one-on-one attention to curated group play, Pawsitive Paws Resort offers a refined, stress-free environment where every dog can enjoy their perfect version of comfort, care, and fun. My goal is to create joyful, and reliable experience for both you and your best friend. My wife and I do this together so there is someone always around to make sure your pet is being pampered. The environment is set up just like they are at home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I create a clean, healthy, and supervised environment where dogs can relax, play, and be themselves without stress. I take great care to build trust with every animal—not just through consistency and structure, but through gentle communication and reassurance. From secure play areas to careful monitoring during all activities, I make sure each dog is protected and supported at all times. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in a safe, nurturing space where their needs come first.

“Nicole was great and exceeded my expectations. She came over to meet our dogs before we left on vacation and they instantly liked her. While on vacation she sent videos and pictures after every walk and was ALWAYS on time. She made my vacation worry free and I can’t thank her enough!”
