Pet care experience
My name is David and I am Boston's only amputee dog walker and appreciate the support! I possess a long stride, my typical walks are 30-60 minutes clocking 1-2.5 miles if your dog is up for it, but can accommodate sits at the park as well for the physically less inclined lol. I use a live tracking app so you can always see where we are at and track our mileage so you are guaranteed the service you pay for. I have a keen attention for detail and always remain cognizant of potential dangers when on a walk, your animal(s) will be in good hands you can rest assured.
Reviews
This was my second time hiring David while I was out of town for a few days. He was very communicative with updates. I came home to a clean house, happy animals (both dog and cat), and he was even nice enough to hang up my towel rack that had fallen down. I’ve already booked him for my next trip. Definitely recommend.
I am a nervous dog mom and so was anxious to take a weekend away. Luckily we found David! He was very reassuring and respectful of my dog's quirks as well as my home. I hope to book him again next time we need a sitter!
David recently watched our two dogs in our home while we went out of town for a few days. We are new to Boston so of course nervous about leaving them. David kept us updated the entire time and sent lots of great pictures. He helped relieve our anxiety and the pups loved the long walks! We highly recommend him for anyone looking.
David did a great job with my dog and cat house sitting. I was nervous about leaving my dog because I had just relocated a few days before my trip, and my dog has high anxiety, but David did a great job reassuring us both. My dog weighs 80 lbs, is not the most well-mannered on a leash, and has a lot of anxiety, but David had no issues at all! My cat also came out of hiding fairly quickly and was comfortable. Will definitely hire David again.
