8. Kathryn O.


“Oh my goodness, Kathryn is the simply the best!!! I love my summers on Nantucket but it can be necessary to leave the island briefly at times. And it’s not always easy or desirable to uproot my dogs. My 2 little Maltese dogs (ages 4 and 11) just loved her. One is skittish and one is a ‘senior’ who needs medication; both of them took to her right away and she was so comfortable and capable with their little quirks and needs. She did double duty as house-sitter and doggie care-giver, and I couldn’t be more pleased on both fronts! I came home to happy puppies and an immaculate home. It doesn’t get any better. ??❤️”

“Ali was wonderful with our dog River! She was attentive and on time for each check in. We’ll definitely hire her again!”


10. Serena S.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since i was able to walk. I grew up walking two border collies, and a golden retriever every night with my mom, and even took a job at a doggie daycare as my first job! My boyfriend has a NISHA pup that I walk and run on the beach year round! I’ve graduated from doggie day care and now i am currently a nurse who still loves going on walks. However, not having a dog of my own, i love being able to help out others and take your pup along with me on my days off! Im always respectful when picking up your pet, and have no problem meeting before hand to make you feel comfortable with me! I promise to keep your dog happy, healthy, and hydrated on every walk!


11. Mia M.
“I have been a friend of Mia’s since we were in kindergarten, and she has always loved animals. She loved coming over and playing with my own cats, and eventually got two of her own. She is always very patient and gentle with animals, not forceful like many other people are. She takes amazing care of her two kitties, even making sure to carefully wipe their eyes when they water due to their breed. She is the sweetest person I have ever known and is very loyal and trustworthy, a testament to our 12+ years of friendship. I would absolutely recommend her to take care of any animals— cats, dogs, etc. She has even taken care of my four cats wh”


12. Morgan S.
“Not only is Morgan friendly and approachable, but also extremely reliable and trustworthy! She has a genuine love for all animals and puts her heart into everything she does. I would not hesitate to recommend her to love and protect your furry friends like her own! 💗”


13. Riley G.
“Riley was our neighbor for years and always did a wonderful job of caring for a golden retriever, Gracie. She was dependable and easy to get a hold of.”


14. Kenia O.
“Kenia was super loving and caring with my American Staffordshire Pit-bull, Pretty. She would take her for longer walks than scheduled and even offered diet recommendations for her. My dog absolutely adored her and wouldn’t want her to leave. You won’t make the wrong choice in choosing her to be your dog walker!”

About: I always had pets growing up, I love spending time with them. I have a 2 year old, full of energy german shepherd named Leo. He is my world. I have learned, researched and trained him, so I have the experience to handle a high energy pup and teach them some trick. Your pup will be overloaded with love and care.

19. Cate B.
About: I've spent my whole life around animals, especially dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Over the years, I've looked after dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—each one with their own quirks and needs. Whether it's going for long walks, sticking to a routine, or just offering company and cuddles, I treat every dog like they're part of my family. My goal is always to make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their people are away. As a teacher I have a flexible holiday and weekend schedule. I am available after 4pm on weekdays for walks and anytime on weekends and holidays for overnight pet care. I have a large yard and 1 friendly dog to keep your pet company when boarding in my home. I love to utilize the beautiful trails on Nantucket to take long walks in the afternoon and snuggle up on the couch in the evening with your fur baby.
