Dog Walkers in Linwood, MA

About: I have watched many family members and family friends pets. I have experience in watching multiple dogs and also staying overnights. I have worked in a vet clinic at my technical Highschool I was previously in for about 2 years. I also worked at the vet clinic over the summer as well. A previous job I have had required for me to watch 8 Standard poodles. I currently do not have a job so I have plenty of time during the week and weekend to help any owner in need of pet sitting. I am unable to care for pets at my home but I am able to stay at a clients house whether it’s just for the day or a week. Overnights are a simple task for me and I’m more than happy to do it.

“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!”

“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.”

“Jessica is so great with our rambunctious puppy!! He is not easy and can very energetic but Jessica always has patience and grace with him, despite the occasional glove/shoe stealing. She never seems to get upset with him and understands he needs a little extra support being young. She is also very flexible and willing to help with our tasks- Highly recommend!!!”

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.

“Jessica takes excellent care of my dogs! Giving them fresh air & exercise while I’m stuck at the office. She’s punctual & an A+ communicator.”

About: I am a passionate dog lover and dedicated pet caregiver. I'm currently in my third year at Liberty University, and animals, especially dogs, have always held a special place in my heart. I've had my own dog for over 14 years, and caring for pets has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Whether it's walking, sitting, or just spending quality time, I’ve looked after dogs (and other pets!) for friends, family, and neighbors with love and attention. I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. If you're looking for someone reliable, energetic, and genuinely excited to meet your furry friend, I’m your person! I am a college student home for the summer with a lot of free time. I work a part time job and an internship that are very flexible so I would love to help out with your furry friends when needed! I am a very active person so I love to get pets outdoors to let their energy out but I always keep them on the leash unless they are in a enclosed space!

About: I have 2 dogs of my own and foster puppies and adult dogs as well. We also have chickens. I love animals of all types and understand how difficult it can be to find someone you trust with their care. I am a Registered Nurse and caring for animals comes as natural to me as caring for people. Caring for your pets gives me the flexibility to spend time with them but also be available as a mom. My daughter loves animals and is very helpful and loving. I have a flexible work schedule and mostly work from home. I am able to interact while working and provide frequent potty breaks and extra attention as needed. I do feed separately to avoid food aggression issues which can sometimes happen in new environments. I have 2 dogs of my own and a fenced in yard. There is plenty of space to run and play and also lounge and nap! We’d love to know what your dog's typical routine is at home as well as any behaviors (food/toy aggression) or quirks we should be aware of. I will do my best to accommodate any special needs. Please let us know if they are on any medications or have any health issues. I DO NOT accept dogs that are aggressive, excessive barkers, non-house trained, destructive, or have severe separation anxiety. All dogs who stay in our home must be well socialized, healthy (i.e. not sick with any contagious diseases that could be passed onto humans or other dogs) and up to date on their vaccines and flea/tick preventatives. Required vaccinations: Rabies Distemper Bordetella (kennel cough)

“Another great walk with Connor! I appreciate Connor’s prompt and professional responses to any of my questions/concerns. Juice gets more excited each week!”

About: I have been pet sitting and babysitting around and with pets since I was a kid! Being around animals is genuinely calming and gives me true joy! I have the patience to raise kittens and puppies of my own as well as watching over other's kittens too. I work part time and would love to spend more of my free time with animals of all kinds. I have four pets of mine at home and have daily chores for upkeep and dedicate quality time with them every day. I have adventurous dogs who love to find a way to escape the yard and understand the importance of keeping a close eye on them constantly. In other pet's houses, keeping them calm, happy, and well fed is key.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience in dog obedience and show training. As a lifelong owner of both small and big dogs, I’m committed to providing personalized, safe care! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine as I already care for my own dogs. Caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Now that I'm home from college for the summer, I have ample free time to dedicate to your dog's well-being. Making sure they get all the love, attention, and care that every dog needs! I care for pets in my home by providing daily grooming, obedience training, and plenty of playtime. I enjoy staying active with pets to ensure they are happy and healthy. Each pet receives personalized attention, whether it's a walk, a training session, or some fun and games.

“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”

“Our dog Barfee had a great time with Natalie! She’s very caring, reliable and good with communication and sending us pictures of him on their walks. Would definitely book her again!”

About: With hands-on experience working at a doggy daycare and caring for pets both in my own home and in clients’ homes, I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels! My experience has helped me build strong skills in providing attentive, reliable, and loving care while making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy in any environment! *I can only take services from 6 a.m. - 3 p.m. on Mondays and Thursdays! The rest of my schedule and availability is on my calendar! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, active, and cared for. I’m used to planning my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and giving pets consistent attention throughout the day. I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine as much as possible. In both my home and my clients’ homes, I provide regular feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention, and affection! I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means keeping an energetic pet active or giving a more anxious pet extra patience and pets! My goal is always to make pets feel happy and well cared for while their owners are away.

“Adam is awesome! He did a great job calming our anxious dog down and was super flexible with our schedule. He is very professional and responsive!”

About: I’ve always had a place in my heart for animals! I have been volunteering at shelters for over 3 years, as well as recent experience as a vet assistant! I’m not just here to feed and walk, I build trust with your pet! I take the time to approach each animal with patience, and adapt to their comfort and energy level. Whether it’s a high energy puppy or a timid cat, I tune in and make sure their needs are met! I am currently working as a vet assistant so my hours can be a bit limited! From M-Th I work 7:30-6 pm but am available for check ins after work! Trust is everything! To build a trusting relationship I’m communicative, reliable, and happy to provide updates and photos during each visit so you can feel connected and confident while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick drop in or a longer stay, I am always tidy, respectful, and focused on creating a calm, happy environment for your pet!

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.

“Melissa is awesome! She bonded quickly with our puppy - she fed him and brought him on his daily afternoon walk.”
