“My dogs love their walk with John! He is the best and so kind and patient with our crazy boys. He is so trustworthy and amazing with communication. My boys can't handle their excitement in the photos and videos John sends us! Thank you so much John!”
About: Passionate and reliable dog walker with a love for all things furry! With years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I provide safe, fun, and engaging walks tailored to each pet's needs. Whether it's a relaxing stroll or a high energy adventure, I’m dedicated to making every walk a positive experience for your pup. Your pet's safety, happiness, and well being are my top priorities, ensuring they return home with a wagging tail and a happy heart. Let me help keep your best friend active and healthy :) I am working part time Monday-Wednesday as a dental assistant. I’ve been in the dental field for 9 years. I am available Thursday, Friday's, and weekends as needed for your pup :) i can’t wait to meet them! I have a fenced in yard and love being outside. I never mind staying at your house for a couple of hours if needed !
About: I’ve always been surrounded by animals-caring for my two dogs (a German Shepard and a Catahoula) and cat, helping my mom who used to dog sit on Rover, and spending a summer volunteering at the MSPCA. Friends and family have always trusted me to care for their pets when they’re away, and I have experience with both big dogs and small ones, thanks to my former pug. I understand how much pets mean to us and always show up with patience, care, and respect. As a college student seeking part-time work over the summer, I’m available for dog walking between 9am and 2pm, Tuesday through Saturday. I’m dedicated to providing reliable care and can accommodate booking within these hours. At home, I make sure my dogs get regular walks, playtime, and exercise. They love playing fetch with lacrosse sticks and frisbees, and I plan to take them on plenty of hikes this summer. I stick to a routine for feeding and adjust their activities based on the weather or their energy levels. While I don’t always have a set schedule, I prioritize their wellbeing and make sure they get the attention and care they need.
“Ashley took such great care of our 15 week old golden retriever puppy. Beacon is still young with high energy and had never been left at home for a full day. This was our first time leaving her for that long and Ashley went above and beyond to make sure she got to play outside when she was there so Beacon was more comfortable in her crate, which I appreciated so very much! She also took many pictures and gave us updates with both of her visits which made me feel so comfortable and reassured while I was gone. She provided multiple meals, snacks, water, play time, and many potty breaks. She took such great care of Beacon and we are so thankful!”
About: I've had dogs since I was 5 years old and cannot imagine life without them. I've raised 1 dog from a puppy and rescued three others. I’m currently working a full time job from 8-4 but I have some flexibility to at home two days. I’m available mornings, nights, and weekend for walks, visits, meals, meds, and more! I like to build trust with pets first. I let the pets come to me instead of going to them. That way it's on their own terms and I don't force them into any stressful situations.
“Kim has done drop in visits for our dog a couple times now and has always done a fantastic job! Our dogs have a somewhat involved routine and Kim has been on top of it! We highly recommend her!”
“Amanda and Pat took such good care of our pups. They made sure they had quality time out of their crates while I was out of town.”
“So happy to have booked Keeley when we found ourselves needing a pet sitter last minute over the holidays. We expressed our concerns about leaving our two cats as they have experienced stress over having someone in the house who they didn't know very well. We worked with Keeley to adjust their schedules to ease their anxiety. She communicated very well each day about how the cats were doing, which made our entire family happy to have her there. We will be using Keeley again for our next vacation!”
“Robert did a splendid job with our dog Rebel. We left him with instructions for food and medicine, and he carried them out faithfully. Robert was respectful, on-time, and thorough. We have already booked him again later this month!”
“Spencer was awesome! He took such great care of our dog Duke! Took him on walks, played with him, etc. he kept me updated every step of the way and always had pictures and detailed reports with each visit. 10/10 would recommend Spencer any day of the week! Thank you Spencer!”
About: I've helped to take care of family members dogs in the past but I am looking forward to working with dogs more during the Summer I'll be visiting and walking a few days a week while also taking part in an internship in Massachusetts. On my days off from the internship, I'll have a lot of free time. Safety is a top priority for me. Before working with any owners I have a policy of having a short talk with them about any safety concerns for their animal(s).
“Manessa does an excellent job caring for my senior dog. I feel so comfortable leaving her knowing she’ll be take care of so well. She sends plenty of photos and humorous comments about the visit.”
“I am so happy to have found Britney! We use Britney weekly when I work. She is pleasant, reliable, always on time, follows instructions and is awesome with my little Yorkie. I can’t praise her enough…really! We are very happy with our decision.”
“Klarysa came for a meet and greet and our dogs like her immediately! We have 2 large, somewhat anxious dogs and a feisty chihuahua and Klarysa knew exactly how to handle them. By the end of our visit all three dogs trusted her and were at her feet. She also knows a lot about dog behavior. Our dogs can be anxious and a bit reactive so it was important to us that a sitter knew how to handle those behaviors. Her experience with dogs certainly shows because she knows just what to do to diffuse any anxiety. Our family is very particular who we leave our dogs with. After two visits with Klarysa, we truly feel she will be great taking care of them for drop ins and also overnights.”
“Katie was wonderful to work with and she took great care of my large golden, Andre, on the thanksgiving holiday. I was happy to see photos and updates while we were away. I would definitely use her again in the future.”
“I am so thankful for Tiffany’s daily visits with my pup. Bailey is super happy and well loved while I’m at work. Thank you Tiffany for putting my mind at ease and giving me extra time.”
“I needed dog walking help on short notice, and Eleanor made me feel so much better about my absence. I got notes and pictures that let me know how my puppy was doing each time she dropped in. I would definitely work with Eleanor again.”

Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I’ll make sure your pets are well cared for when they’re with me. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.
