Dog Walking Hyde Park

“It’s been a pleasure meeting Zoe and very comforting leaving my dog Millie with her. Zoe is sweet and caring, punctual, responsive, communicative and thoughtful, and I’m not sure what else you could ask for from somebody caring for your pup. Lucky to have found her. Thanks Zoe!”

“Gaby has been so great with my dog, Lily! She has been giving her walks multiple times a week for the last few months and has been nothing but reliable. She is very responsive and communicative and has even been able to help me out with caring for my dog on short notice at times! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker or petsitter!”

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, and hamsters and I am willing to experience a lot more! Don’t worry, I always enjoyed animals and providing them with love and care, so your mind will be at ease when you are away. I recently completed school but I also work a per diem job. Aside from studying to receive my certification, I have plenty of time to be with your cute companions, and spend time with them. Who knows, maybe while we’re together we can become the best study buddies. I am extremely flexible and always willing to discuss further if you have interest in booking. As I’ve had plenty of experience with Cats, I’m well aware of choking hazards on string like materials. I try to keep items like this out of reach! I am very clean when it comes to my space and noticed that this helps as some kitty’s can be a little curious and knock things off surfaces. When things are put away correctly there’s less chance for mess or danger. I am still gaining some experience with Dogs and puppies. As far as safety, I only do leashed walks to not only protect your pup but others who may be passing by as well! Again, I'm pretty organized and will avoid leaving items out, especially food! I know some animals are very food motivated and leaving food products out can be dangerous.

“Amanda was excellent! She was very kind, sweet and attentive with my puppy and took him on a nice long walk. She made sure to ask any questions and communicate everything, and we were able to trust her with our pup and our house while we were gone. We will definitely look to book with Amanda in the future next time we need a dog walker!”

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover and cat owner with experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and birds. I understand that every pet has unique needs and strive to provide the attentive, loving care they deserve. I have a flexible part-time schedule and primarily offer drop-in visits for cats, dogs, and other small pets. I'm often available for same-day or short-notice requests, and I'm happy to help with vacation coverage or other short-term care needs. My availability is best suited for occasional, as-needed care rather than recurring weekly visits. I always aim to care for pets in a way that keeps them comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In a client's home, I follow their pet's usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), litter box or cleanup care, and plenty of attention and companionship to help them feel at ease while their owner is away.

About: I grew up in a home with dogs, cats, bunnies, hens and roosters. I have never lived without caring for an animal! I love being outside, going for walks, playing and gardening. I am a mom of two school-aged boys and a proud owner of two tuxedo kitties whom we adopted nine years ago. I work part-time in the afternoons as an outdoor preschool art specialist. I am free between 9:30 am, and 1 pm everyday, and Wednesday and Thursday until 3 pm! I may also have early evenings free starting at the end of June. I have plenty of time in my schedule to help you care for your animals. Looking forward to meeting them! I am fun, gentle, playful and caring, and have a good instinct for what dogs and cats need. I can read body language and am sensitive to energy. I look forward to learning more about your pets from you, getting to know them and forging a relationship.

About: I’ve had my own pets since I was born- cats, dogs, fish, gerbils and Guinea pigs- and am comfortable caring for all! In middle school, I’d sit for my next door neighbor’s dog, a loveable golden retriever named Kaze. I walked him daily and stayed with him when they’d travel. I quickly became the go-to sitter for other friends and family members throughout the years. In college I had my own first particularly challenging pet, a Jack Russel named Rudy, who opened my eyes to the importance of training and routine with dogs. I’ve been a bit of a cat lady over the past decade, taking in a variety of cats in need and helping them live out their best lives. I’ve gained a special appreciation for the nuance often required with our elderly pals. 😉 I currently live with my partner, our two dogs, Chi Chi (4) and Benji (10), and our old curmudgeonly cat Toonces (18), who is treated like royalty. I take more photos of them than I’d like to admit and will take lots of your pet too. I also spend lots of time with Ralph, my dad’s 8 year old dog, practicing his social skills and snuggling. My approach with pet sitting is similar to my approach with humans - I believe it is important for us to get to know each other in order to build a trusting relationship. I have significant experience caring for aging cats and dogs, direct experience caring for a young kitten in heat, and some experience looking after puppies. Don't hesitate to reach out...I look forward to having as much fun with your pet as I know they’ll have with me! I am between corporate jobs at the moment I am hoping to build up my list of pet sitting clients while I reflect on what's next for me. I love animals and spending my time caring for pets brings me lots of joy. I’d love a regular morning, afternoon, and/or evening walking partner and am open to discussing extended sitting opportunities. I believe building trust with you and your pet is the most important thing. This starts with approaching your pet with genuine care. I am an expert at following complex instructions and will want to understand your and their needs in order to tailor my approach. I am also comfortable and experienced with crating, and keeping pets separate within the home if needed. And there could be an opportunity for play dates with my sweet pups, if the fit is right.

“I was very happy with Elvis it was the first time for him walking our dog Loki, Loki was very happy. Elvis is vey nice, professional and friendly will definitely use his service again 👍”

About: I have always loved taking care of animals since I was young- from dogs, cats, chickens, and fish I have always been surrounded by animals. I have a particular interest in animal behavior and training- I always want to ensure animals feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed when they are in my care. Before moving to Boston, I attended Colorado State University seeking my degree in veterinary medicine- the classes I attended focused on animal behavior, animal environment, and specifically handling large animals such as cattle. During my time there, I acquired my IACUC training for animal handling (can provide if needed, however it technically expired last year) and successfully performed medication administration, vaccine/medication injections, bovine castration, proper animal handling, and more. Unfortunately due to a family emergency I could not finish my degree, however I am looking to complete my animal training certification, as I still love working with animals! While I, myself, do not currently have any pets, my roommate has a cat that I help care for- his name is Boog and he's incredibly cute! I currently work part time Saturday-Monday mornings- after 3pm I am completely free! If your pets can be left alone for about 8-9 hours (travel time depending), I can house sit on these days while working. The rest of the week, I spend time on my hobbies and doing research on animal behavior, meaning I will have plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, and whatever else your pet may desire. I like to set up a trial run before any official appointment just to make sure your animal is comfortable with me and vice versa! This gives a great time where your animal has a familiar person (you!) to reassure them that I (a stranger) am no threat, as well as going over care instructions, any medical concerns, and your typical routine for your pet(s).

About: *Last minute avail!* What sets me apart is how much I truly love spending time with dogs! I’ve watched and walked dogs for friends countless times, and I’m always conscientious, careful, and attentive to each pet’s needs. I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just some quiet companionship, I’m dedicated to giving your dog the best care possible. You can trust that your pup will be in great hands with me! ** Available & willing to discuss rates, long-term situations, and holidays. ** I work full-time, but I am remote 3x a week and in the office 2x a week. Most days I can manage visits throughout he day (Monday, Thursday-Sunday). I am flexible, though, depending on the week so let me know your specific needs and I’ll be able to tell you whether I can or not. Generally, I work 9am-5pm. But, my remote days are also just me and a laptop so if you have a table I can set up at, I can stay for longer intervals. I think trust is so important, and with the internet, i’m sure it’s difficult to trust a complete stranger with a very important member of your life. Safety is my utmost priority, and I am very cautious when it comes to caring for pets. I am not careless in leaving things out or not checking the environment before I leave a pet on their own. I hope you are able to find some sort of trust in me!

“Erin is excellent! We have used her for both boarding and walking, and she is very trustworthy and responsive. We feel confident that our dog Otis will be safe in her care and we will receive updates from her.”

“Su was absolutely wonderful with Giro. Giro, that is usually poo shy with new people very quickly felt very comfortable 😃 which is a wonderful sign. Thank you Su! We would definitely love to have you walk Giro again”

About: I offer lifelong experience with high energy dogs and structured care. Growing up with two family Vizslas from puppyhood to adulthood, I understand the dedication, patience, and mental stimulation required for active, sensitive breeds. I am a recent graduate currently waiting to start a new job in Boston this upcoming September so I am free full time during this transition period. Safety, security, and peace of mind are my top priorities when caring for your pets in your home. I treat your space with the utmost respect and strictly follow all custom instructions from precise feeding schedules and medication routines to house rules and secure door/gate checks.

“Jonathan replied to a very last minute request from us, and provided top notch care to our stranger-wary dog. He was communicative and kind and we would ask him for help in a heartbeat should we need to again.”

About: Hi - My name is Sarah, and I am a life-long dog and cat owner who can't wait to meet your fur baby! Dogs have always had a particularly special place in my heart; when I was a kid, I knew the names of every dog in my childhood neighborhood. I have experience walking, playing, feeding, and doing some light grooming of dogs since I was twelve years old. I have experience playing with, feeding, and doing some light grooming of cats since about the same time. I have also owned mice and hamsters at various points throughout my life. I have a gentle demeanor that makes animals naturally trust me. I am just as happy to be playful or cuddle on the couch with a pet, and I am naturally cautious, making sure to build trust with pets so they can get to know and feel comfortable with me. I look forward to caring for your pets!! I am an educator who is off for the summer, so my week day availability is very open until the end of August. After August, I will still be available nights and weekends. I will work with the safety measures you have in place at your home. I will keep a watchful eye on your pets inside and outside. I have experience crating dogs and can do that if necessary. I will also make sure leashes and harnesses fit well and are not frayed or torn.

“Steven is an absolute gem, one of the sweetest and most genuine people I've had the pleasure of knowing. For the past month, he's been taking care of Bella on a weekly/ daily basis, our beloved furry family member. I initially scheduled 30-minute walks, but Steven's love for animals shines through as he often extends these walks because he sincerely cares about their well-being and enjoys their company. What truly sets Steven apart is his flexibility and accommodation. He's been incredibly understanding with last-minute bookings, making our lives so much easier. But it doesn't stop there; he consistently goes above and beyond for Bella's needs. Not only does he ensure she gets her exercise and fresh air, but he's also taken care of additional chores, like taking out the trash and even washing dishes! It's evident that Steven isn't just a dog walker; he's a compassionate and thoughtful individual who genuinely cares about making our lives better. I can't recommend him highly enough. If you're looking for someone who treats your pet like family and provides incredible service, Steven is the one to call. Bella and I are lucky to have him!”

“Brittany has been really great with our rescue, going above and beyond to make our pooch feel comfortable. She’s very communicative and responds quickly. Definitely recommend!”

“My 11 year old blind, toothless and admittedly neurotic minpin has very strong “YOU’RE NOT MY MOM” energy. He has failed two dog walkers before Dave, seeing as they couldn’t even get him out of the house because he kept trying to nip their fingers with the few teeth he has left. After reading Dave’s reviews I decided to give it one more shot. Dave blew my mind when he sent me photos of Big Bear out and about, riding shot gun in the car, traipsing around the dog park. My beloved pain in the butt little dog won’t even let some of my FAMILY members take him out, more so since he’s gone completely blind. AMAZING. Highly recommend!”

“Ange is so lovely! Our boys (two large boys) immediately took a liking to her and did really well with their walks. Definitely will be booking with her again soon”
