Dog Walking in Marblehead

About: I have been pet sitting for 20 years for many wonderful sweet animals, ranging from house cats to alpaca's, I am capable of everything. I have a 9 month old female husky at home with me, along with a cat. My cat can be easily separated however if your pup is not a fan of cats. My dog and I love taking long walks on the beach, in the woods, and through the streets of my small town. We have been working on puppy training together for the past 4 months which I can always pass on to your pup if needed. If your pup requires a quick bath I am also able to do so. If your dog loves to play then I would be a great fit for you. My girl can also relax if needed. I am able to care for your furry friend in your home or at my own. If you are in need of an avid dog lover who can care for your pup as you would, look no further. You will not find better service for your furry companion! I work from home currently with a very flexible schedule. I can tend to your furry friends needs when ever they need. I truly enjoy getting outside and taking long walks with my girl and would love for your pup to join, or fly solo. What ever yourself and they would enjoy the most. I can care for your pup at my house, or yours, depending on your preference. I can only care for your cat at your own home. I take great pride in keeping my home and others tidy and clean. I am happy to clean up after any messes made in my home and yours, in regards to accidents, or litter boxes that need attention.

“Natalie was great! Our little pup had such a great time with her. She seemed to handle our pup’s stubborn shiba qualities just fine. We will definitely re-book with her.”

“Charlotte was great. She was on time every day we had scheduled and walked our dog Bailey a good distance. I had forgot to tell her to feed Bailey one night and Charlotte asked if she needed to be fed. That shows me that she truly cares for the animals. We will schedule her services again for sure. Thanks Charlotte!”

About: I've been caring for my own variety of pets of most of my life. I started caring for friends/family cats/dogs during their travels about 3 years ago. I have a special interest in animals (especially dogs) that are senior age and/or high needs. My strengths as a special educator are fostered in organized, diligence and empathetic care for all fur babies. When dog sitting I enjoy peaceful neighborhood walks, a snuggle on the couch with a good book, and sending lots of pics to families to document all of our fun! When on summer break from my school teaching job, my schedule is very flexible and open during daytime hours and some evenings depending on the week. I'm happy to customize my schedule to meet the needs of fur baby families with at least one week advance notice. During the pre-care meeting I make sure to go over keys/locks with the client, temperature settings, mail/trash schedule, medications, allergies, emergency contacts, schedule etc. Safety of the pet and the home are my top priority.

“The best!”

“Cassidy was quick to respond to my last minute request. My normally very shy dog warmed to her almost immediately and she took plenty of pictures of their walk :)”

Montana B.

“Chris has walked Winnie a few times now and is always extremely kind and quick to respond if I ever need to get in touch. Winnie is always super happy when she gets back from her walks, especially when she gets to walk with his adorable pup, Prismo :) I will definitely rebook with Chris for any future walks!”

About: 🐾 Passionate Pet Caretaker Since Age 12 🐾 Hello there! I'm Danielle, and I've been a devoted pet enthusiast since I was just 12 years old. Growing up, several of my family members had severe pet allergies so I was unable to have a pet of my own. I quickly filled my burning need for furry friends by offering dog walking and pet sitting services to friends and neighbors. I quickly became the go-to person in my neighborhood when it comes to caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, and sizes. Whether it's a lively Labrador or a timid Siamese cat, I'm there to provide love, attention, and, care to every animal I find. ✨ Why Choose Me? ✨ Experience: With over a decade of pet-sitting experience, I've seen it all, from puppy energy to the calm of senior cats. I'm equipped to handle any situation. Safety First: Your pet's safety is my top priority. I'm well-versed in handling pets of all temperaments and can ensure they're secure and content. Tailored Care: Every pet is unique, and I'm dedicated to providing personalized care that meets their specific needs. Unwavering Love: My goal is to shower your pets with the same love and attention you would. They'll feel cherished and at ease in my care. Photo Updates and Communication: For all my clients, I send regular updates and photos so you can see firsthand how much love and attention your furry family members are receiving. It's my way of providing peace of mind and ensuring that you don't miss a moment of their joyful antics or tranquil moments. Let me be your trusted pet care provider, offering peace of mind and a loving touch when you can't be there. If you're seeking a pet-sitter or a friendly face to take your fur babies for a stroll, look no further. I'm excited to meet your pets and make new furry friends. 🐕🐾🐈 I'm currently in between full-time jobs, so my availability is completely flexible! I'm happy to do morning, afternoon, or evening walks as well as drop-ins to play with and/or feed and water your furry ones. My living space doesn't allow for pets, but I do offer drop-in visits and overnight stays for those who may need more constant attention while you're away. I have experience with both short and extended in-home pet sitting. My services come with daily photo updates and as much communication as will make you confident that your pets are receiving the best care possible in your absence.

About: Hello there! I frequently get asked even though I have this posted- If your dog is aggressive with other dogs I'm unable to host them. My name is Kirsten and I recently lost my fur baby. He was a spunky, fun, Boston Terrier and we had 11 wonderful years together. I'm missing the companionship, snuggling, walks, and getting to spoil him! I'm not quite ready for another dog of my own, but I would LOVE to spoil yours! I had a lot of experience the last couple years with administrating medication and all sorts of special needs for him so I'm comfortable with hanging out with animals needing extra care. My condo has a little yard/porch area for doggies to lounge on in the sun. I do not have other pets. I would prefer to only sit one dog at a time, 2 is ok if the dogs are not wild. My neighbors are sensitive to barking, I cant host dogs that bark constantly when theyre alone. I currently work away from home. Thanks for reading! During the day there's time for walks or hanging out in the fenced courtyard area. I'm home throughout the day. I usually only leave for about an hr. I have a little fenced courtyard but live next to a big, grassy park. The fenced area is secure and I always use leashes outside in the park.

About: As a dedicated dog caregiver, I provide customized care to meet the unique needs of every dog. Whether your dog enjoys energetic games of fetch, relaxed walks around the neighborhood or simply curling up on the couch, I adapt my approach to match their temperament, energy level and preferences. I have experience working with dogs of all ages and temperaments, including those with special needs like mobility challenges or sensory impairments. My goal is to ensure your dog feels safe, loved and well cared for at all times. My passion for dogs is rooted in my personal experiences. Clovis, my 16-year-old Yorkie who passed away on Sept. 15, 2024, was my soulmate and the strongest bond I’ve ever shared with a dog. His loyalty and love shaped my understanding of the deep connection we can have with our pets. Caring for him through his senior years taught me the importance of patience, compassion and adapting care to meet a dog’s changing needs. My first dog, Sadie, a miniature Schnauzer, taught me that while dogs live in families, they often choose one person as their human, and I was hers. Growing up, I also had a Chow Chow named Angel, whose independent nature taught me to respect each dog’s individuality. Today, my 14-year-old Shih Tzu, Cozie, continues to bring joy with her playful yet calming presence, while Brodie, a six-year-old Havanese I’ve cared for over the past year and a half, keeps me active and engaged with his curiosity and charm. Whether it’s helping manage health issues, sticking to routines or simply offering companionship, I bring the same care and dedication to every dog as I have for Clovis, Sadie, Angel, Cozie, Brodie and many others. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention, walks and playtime, ensuring your dog feels comfortable, loved and well cared for every step of the way. My flexible schedule adapts to pets' needs, ensuring consistent walks, play, and care - especially with a plan. I dedicate quality time for exercise, companionship, and snuggles, treating each pet with the same devotion I show my own pack. I've adapted my home and care routines to meet the special needs of my senior Yorkie, who is blind and deaf. I hand-feed him to ensure he eats comfortably and have installed custom features like specialized bowls and steps throughout the house. From cozy corners to stimulating play areas, I ensure safety, comfort and engagement, always respecting the pet's and owner's unique preferences.

About: Hello! My name is Carlyn and I’ve always loved animals! I grew up with a yellow lab named Baxter, and have been dog and cat sitting for family and friends, for close to 10 years now. I just graduated PA school, and am job hunting right now, so I have plenty of spare time to spend taking care of your furry friends! I believe a tired dog is a good dog, so I tend to focus on making sure the dogs get good exercise. However if you’re just looking for someone to spend time with your pets, I’m happy do that as well!

“Alex was great! Our dog is nervous around new people and we were worried but he seemed to like him right away and the walks were a success! Definitely looking forward to working with him again!”

Andrea K.

“Madelyn was very prompt to pick our pup up for his walk and also made time for a meet and greet prior to our first walk to meet him and ourselves. Look forward to using her again in the future.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for pets, especially dogs. My love for animals started at a young age when I got my first dog, a beagle named Rudy when I was 9 years old. I take my dogs on regular walks around my neighborhood, ensure they are bathed and groomed frequently, and always prioritize their health and happiness. Beyond caring for my own pets, I have also walked and cared for my neighbors’ dogs during the summer, further strengthening my experience. I’ve always been passionate about animal care, my goal is to ensure that every dog is happy, healthy, and in the hands of a responsible, caring owner. You can trust that I will provide your dog with the same level of love and attention I give my own, ensuring they are well-cared for and safe. I am a college student currently attending at Salem State University, working to help pay for tuition and expenses. All of my classes are in the mornings, so I am typically available most afternoons and evenings. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I ensure a secure and comfortable environment by following the pet’s routine, providing plenty of attention, and keeping their space clean and hazard free. When walking or sitting pets, I always use secure leashes, monitor their behavior closely, and ensure they are in a safe environment at all times. I respect any special instructions provided by owners, including dietary needs, medications, and preferred routines. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own, giving them the love, care, and attention they deserve while keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable.

“My dog Mando absolutely adored his walks with Deena. Her communication was perfect and he had such a great time with her! Thank you for everything, Deena!”

I love to run around and play with pets! I also love sitting and relaxing with pets. I’m good at following a set of rules and schedules.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs since very young age. I’ve always taken a special interest in caring for them. I’ve been dog and cat sitting for my neighbors and friends since I can remember. I’m currently doing an internship 2-3 times a week. I am very available the other days and even before or after I go into my internship. I care for my two cats and my dog. Cats are lower maintenance but I walk my dog every day. Our backyard is not fenced in but I’m happy to go yo yours or even just do walks!
