Dog Walking North Cambridge

“Catherine was a great dog walker! She responded well to my nervous dog and he grew comfortable with her super quick. She always returned my dog well exercised at the end of the walk!”

Reuben and Cameron

“Fender had a great time with Eleanor as always and came home ready to relax. Huge appreciation for showing him such a good time in the rainy weather - his favorite of course!”

Kathryn D.

“Michael walked my 3 year old golden retriever, Waffles, for four afternoons. Waffles sometimes pulls on the leash and sometimes not. Michael in his own quiet way was clearly in control and Waffles liked him immediately. I recommend Michael.”

“Ria really came through through during a historic nor'easter in Cambridge. I am so grateful for her and giving my dog the love and care he needs while I'm away attending other events. It is so much appreciated!!!”

About: I've been around animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for pets of all ages and personalities. Whether they're energetic and playful or calm and reserved, I enjoy getting to know what makes each pet unique. I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets throughout the day. As a single mom 50% of the time, my schedule is particularly flexible on my child-free days. I also love being outdoors, so getting outside for walks and exercise with pets is something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. I believe every pet is happiest when their routine stays as consistent as possible. In my clients' homes, I follow their pet's normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and lots of attention. I take time to get to know each pet's personality so they feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, calm environment with plenty of supervision, exercise, and affection. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter approach, I tailor my care to their individual needs and treat them like part of the family.

“Been loving our experience with Julia so far! Our pup loves her, she has great communication and sends us awesome updates while she’s watching her. Thanks again Julia- it’s relieving to know our girl is in good hands!!”

“Good communicator, reliable, & patient with our reluctant/fearful dog. Hassana has put our dog at ease a lot faster than we expected. Definitely will book again.”

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, small mammals and reptiles for most of my life. I'm partial to dogs and rodents but I have a soft spot for all animals. Because pet care is my primary focus, my schedule offers exceptional flexibility throughout the week. I am readily available for regularly scheduled walks, midday drop-ins, and routine feeding sessions. Living and working locally in Somerville allows me to seamlessly adjust to shifting timelines and often accommodate last-minute visit requests for nearby clients. Whether providing care in your home or mine, my priority is keeping your pet's exact routine consistent, safe, and stress-free. I start by identifying the spaces and corners where they feel most comfortable and secure, allowing them to acclimate at their own pace. Once they are at ease, I engage them with their favorite toys—I especially love a high-energy game of tug-of-war with dogs of all sizes! I treat your home with the utmost respect, strictly adhering to your feeding, medication, and house rules so your pet feels completely safe in their natural environment.

“Cierra really helped me out when I had a last minute need for someone to walk my pup. Very responsive and nice!”

“When our dog sitter had an emergency, Alexa saved the day! She is amazing with our 2 senior beagles, is reliable, and so sweet. I felt so comfortable leaving my dogs in such reliable hands, on short notice. It was an easy decision to have her care for my dogs again and again.”

Liz B.

“I had a great experience with Hannah as a dog walker! She communicated promptly to coordinate everything and took my puppy Luna's schedule into consideration, which I really appreciated. She arrived right on time, took Luna on a nice walk, and sent lots of pictures throughout. Luna looked so happy and comfortable in every photo. It was clear she was in great hands, and I’d happily book with Hannah again!”

About: Hello! My name is Abigail and I have been taking care of pets for about 8 years. I have rescued two seniors and taken care of multiple dogs between the ages of 1 to 12. I am a go to sitter for my family and neighbors. I have experience taking care of disabled dogs and multiple years of administering medications (pills, liquid medication, ear drops, eye drops). I am a junior at Texas Tech university but Boston is home for every school break. I would love to provide housesitting/walking services in your home to minimize disruption for your pet while you are out of town or out and about. I will leave your place exactly as you left it and I will care for your pets exactly how I have always cared for my own. I love to be involved in the daily routine of pets that I am caring for. I am very accommodating to their routines. I am up for spending lots of time helping them to burn off energy or sit and be calm while petting them if that is more their speed. I can do long walks or short walks, play time, snack time and/or dinner time. I will care for your pets exactly as you would and I welcome as much detail as you would like to provide. There is nothing too big or too small for me to do! I am happy to go exactly at your pets pace.

“Megan is wonderful with our dog Thor! She is always on time, highly communicative, and Thor absolutely loves his walks with her!”

Amogha T.

“Maria has been "walking" our dog Sugar for a few months during her heartworm treatment. Sugar is on bed rest and Maria has been absolutely wonderful keeping her calm and giving her lots of love, treats, and belly rubs. Sugar absolutely adores her and I feel comfortable knowing she is in great hands! Maria has also cat sat for us for a weekend and the cats (including the one who often gets grumpy with cat sitters) loved her! I highly recommend Maria!”

Hannah F.

“Miranda has been an excellent walker and care giver for Bella, our very active puppy. She has been reliable and really gets Bella exercised on her walks, often driving her to parks for water play and meeting other dogs. Highly recommended.”

About: I have walked dogs since I was 7 years old, starting with my family’s yellow Lab Phoebe, taking on neighbors as clients. I have since enjoyed pet-sitting for friends and having my own pets, including my darling cat Caramel. I have a very flexible schedule as a graduate student — outside of class I am typically at home or studying close by, often in pet-friendly and outdoor spaces where I would love to have your pet join me. I love a long walk and will walk your dog as far as you would like! I am empathetic and considerate and have a deep respect for pets and the humans they live with. I am a clear communicator and will always do my utmost to understand your pet’s needs and give them excellent care.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life from a young age. If you have a dog who loves to RUN, & WALK …. I live in one of the dog-friendliest areas of Cambridge… outdoors on average 2-3 hrs walking, hiking, ball throwing etc. I currently work online just 10-15 Hrs/week, often evenings and weekends so my time is devoted to Alfie, my 7 month old Springer Spaniel… who is desperate to find a friend! Spacious one bedroom on first floor of a dog friendly building across from Cambridge Common. We are like a family… Safe walking, ultimate frisbee and lots of parks/paths close by

About: I have lived with and cared for pets since I was 6 year old and have been a reliable go-to dog and cat sitter for friends and family over the years. I currently work part time in the food service industry and am free most weekdays and weekend nights. I love to get my steps in and explore - so dog walking, and dropping in to care for your pet fits right in to my daily routine! I will follow any instructions and treat your space with the utmost respect. I will ensure your pet is left comfortable and content, and leave no other trace of my visit.

“Johnna is fantastic. My dog, Miso, was instantly comfortable with her (and she's not a dog that warms up to everyone). Johnna clearly has a way with animals. She was also wonderful about following all the directions involved in walking a dog who can be challenging. We are very happy to have found Johnna!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, from dogs and cats to rabbits, fish, and reptiles! Now I have a dog and cat of my own. In addition to caring for my own animals, I’ve worked as a dog walker and pet sitter on apps like Rover since 2018. I’ve worked with dogs of various breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments, as well as cared for cats and other small animals. I have a lot of experience with rescue animals professionally and personally, and pride myself on the patience and care I take with this work. I recently moved to the area for grad school and am eager to meet and care for your pet(s)! Currently, I am a full-time grad student. Outside of my classes, I have the flexibility to schedule all dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. At this time, I am only able to take care of your pets in your home. I prefer working with animals in their own space so they feel comfortable and safe.
