About: Hello and thank you so much for your interest in my pet care services! I absolutely love animals, and have over 8 years of professional pet care experience, both in a Veterinary Hospital and doggy daycare, boarding and grooming facility, as well as working alongside a top rated team of professional dog walkers in Central MA. Working independently allows me to give your pets the extra love and attention they deserve, without the rush, and added treats! :) • I am both Pet First Aid and CPR trained and certified. • Ready to give some extra love to your furry friends? Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to set up a meet and greet! • *Please allow me 24 hours to respond to your request, between the hours of 9am - 3pm, Monday - Thursday. I am currently available for morning, midday and evening drop-in/vacation care visits, or from 10am-3pm Tuesday-Thursday for dog walking/potty break & playtime visits! Do you live on a road unsafe for walking? Or do you wish your four footed friend could spend more time being a dog during the week? How about a trail walk in a local forest? Great for dogs sensitive to noise, who have extra energy, or who just love their time outdoors! Trail walks are an hourly rate and include pickup and drop off for your convenience. I hope to see you and your animal loved ones soon! After working in a pet boarding facility, I greatly appreciate getting to care for animals in their own home. It is much less stressful for the animals, and their pet parents. I have years of experience taking care of animals in an overnight boarding facility as well as in their own home through professional pet care services, and I value transparency, safety, trust and genuine care for all animals!

“Samantha took great care of our good boy while we were away! He seemed to really enjoy his walks with her and we hope to use her services again in the future!”

“Justin is the best dog walker I’ve had for my little Gia. She is American Pitbull Terrior who is so playful happy and sweet he helps get her energy out during the day while I’m at work. She does pull a little on the leash but Justin is really good about working with her on not pulling and a plus, he teaches her cool little tricks!! I would def recommend him to walk your dog!!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with professional experience working in veterinary care, as well as previous experience walking dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and energetic adults to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. I especially enjoy dog walking because I love getting outside, giving pets some enrichment and exercise, and seeing how happy they are afterward. Of course I’m here for the puppy kisses and cuddles too! My veterinary experience has given me experience with a variety of pets and their individual needs, including administering oral medications and topical medications. I also have personal experience caring for a deaf dog, so I understand the importance of adapting communication and care to each pet. I’m comfortable walking dogs up to 100 lbs and have some basic training knowledge that I can incorporate into everyday interactions. I believe consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement go a long way. My goal is to provide dependable daytime walks and drop-in visits while giving your pets the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. I’ll treat your pets like individuals, respect their routines, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I have spent the past 2.5 years dog walking under companies in Boston. I now work at a vet clinic as a receptionist. I miss spending my time outdoors and the hands on experience I gain with dog walking! I have experience with dogs with special needs (deafness blindness and some medical issues). I also have basic experience with training and dogs with behavioral difficulties. I have learned a lot about body language throughout the years and love to get a dog’s brain working on a walk to make it more enriching. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I’m an animal lover with professional veterinary experience and previous experience working as a dog walker. I enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I’m especially interested in daytime dog walks and drop-in visits on my available days. I’m dependable, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. My goal is always to make sure your pet gets the exercise, enrichment, attention, and affection they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Because of my veterinary background, I’m familiar with paying attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall wellbeing, and I take each pet’s individual needs seriously. For walks and drop-ins, I follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I’m careful about doors, gates, leashes, and other potential escape risks, and I’ll make sure your home is left secure and tidy after each visit. I’m also comfortable administering oral and topical medications when needed. Before caring for a new pet, I like to learn about their personality, routines, triggers, and anything else that will help me provide safe and comfortable care.
