Dog Walkers in Oak Bluffs, MA

About: I've always had both dogs and cats since I was little. Both my sweet kitties needed medication their entire life so I have experience administrating medication if needed. I'm usually my friends go to choice for a dog walker, feeder and pet sitter for long trips during the summer due to my teacher schedule. I currently am only avaliable on weekends as I work full time but I will be avaliable during week days starting in July. During that time, I will have availability for weekends and weekdays. You know your pet best! Before any services, I like to ask questions on your pets daily routine, medications, behavior and feeding routine. This is so I can provide the best care possible for your pet!

About: I’ve worked with animals my entire life and have had a lot of experience with all sorts of dogs (especially the big pups) I’m extremely patient & don’t mind the longer walks for the more energetic guys! I’m currently a student at PC so my availability varies/is flexible, however I’m almost always around after 4:30 on weekdays or in the mornings (with an exception of Mondays and Thursdays). Typically I’m free all day on weekends. Unfortunately I cannot board pets at my home, but I am no stranger to pet sitting and will make sure your pet is well taken care of.

About: I’ve worked with dogs, cats, horses and reptiles! I have a passion for animals, and am always looking forward to meeting a new furry friend. My mom and I worked with our local shelter to foster cats and rescued them in our area, we saved over twenty cats! I’m a nursing student but have a flexible schedule! My schedule changes weekly so please feel free to reach out with preferred times :) I love to go on long walks and spend quality time with animals. Unfortunately my apartment has a no pet policy, but I would love to pet sit at a clients home! I can provide walks, clean litter boxes, play with the animals, feed them, bathe and groom them, etc.

About: Hi! I am a senior at Barnard with a light semester of workload, looking to make some extra cash. I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies, and chickens my whole life (big pet family). I have dog-walked/cat sat for multiple different clients, and also am more than willing to just hang with a pet if they have anxiety! I normally feed twice a day and play with for a total of 1 1/2 to 2 hours, either intermittently or all at once in one sitting. I can feed as many times a day as needed and walk/play with as much as needed. Will have a pretty flexible schedule this semester.

“Thanks for coming over! Ike loved you!!”

About: I have a lot of pet care experience and can assure you that I will love your animals. I grew up surrounded by animals and have been trusted by my friends, neighbors, and family members to watch their pets and homes. I have long term pet and house sat in Montana, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Alaska, and North Carolina! Feel free to reach out for references or my resume. I’m an early riser, love to go on walks with animals, and have a very flexible schedule. I have been work pet and house sitting this past summer in the U.S. Virgin Islands while holding a few boat jobs as well. I will be in Vineyard Haven for the summer, working on a sailboat, and would love to spend my free time taking care of your animals. My schedule is charter dependent, but is pretty much flexible at this moment! With my flexible schedule, check-in times can be more frequent if they are needed and I am able to provide my full attention to your animals.

About: *Martha’s Vineyard Only* I have had pets of all kinds for as far back as I can remember. I currently have a very loving, sweet, energetic and playful dog of my own, Lola. She is 10 years old and enjoys playing with new friends! I am knowledgable and caring and will provide your dog with lots of love and care! I am comfortable caring for dogs of any size and breed as well as administering medication (oral, injections, eye and ear drops and topicals). I currently work part time from home so I am flexible and available throughout the day to tend to and care for pets in my care I have a fenced in yard, but don’t leave dogs unattended in the yard. I have a dog of my own to provide your dog with companionship and a playmate while they stay with us! A crate is not required but I’m happy to set yours up if it makes your dog comfortable. I can provide care for potty trained dogs, though I am comfortable with and have experience with senior dogs who require diapers.

About: I have been a pet sitter for the last 10 years, working for neighbors as well as for the families I was nannying for. I am committed to the dogs I am caring for and I will treat them as if they are my own. I currently work in a hotel and taking care of animals in my free time would be work that I am very passionate about. I am happy to take the dogs on walks, or host in your home. I currently work part time so I would love to fill my free time caring for animals. I spend most nights on long walks so it would be great to have a companion to keep me company. I am very responsible and trustworthy. I would treat your dog and your home as if it is my own. I am happy to feed, play, walk, go to the beach, or anything that will make the pets happy.

About: I love dogs and grew up with them! I have 2+ years doing long term dog sitting for the same family. I watched them for around 20 days each month. I loved their dogs like my own! Your dogs will be safe and happy with me. They are my top priority. I make sure they get exercise and lots of love. I always send picture and updates. Most recently I lived with my sister who also has a young pitbull so I am with dogs every day. I have experience administering medication and monitoring health issues. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I have even watched dogs abroad. I have experience with multiple breeds and so many amazing dogs. I genuinely just love watching dogs. I’m interested in dog walking and sitting. Can also do cats :) I work seasonal jobs so move around. For the last 3 years I was in steamboat springs, Colorado and watched 2 labs on a regular basis. I worked a 9-5 a would go home and feed, walk, and play with the dogs! I take them to the dog park and on hikes. Dogs fit into my routine very easily. Your dogs will get walks, play, get cuddles, etc. I am also used to working around specific quarks. For example, dogs who eat rocks may require a face mask for walks, dogs with sensitive stomachs, etc. I set alarms for their meals and keep a consistent walk/play routine. I feel responsible for their safety too, so if they play with dogs who are too rough, I will move along. Their happiness and comfort is literally my job!

About: I have a senior cat with a serious digestive and heart condition, so I’m certainly used to giving pets their proper medications, feeding at specific times, or just generally giving them the love and attention they need! I grew up with dogs, and have pet sat for friends, family and clients for years. I feel more than comfortable feeding, walking or staying with pups of any breed or size. I’ve been a sitter on Trusted Housesitters for years and have been lucky enough to let sit as far away as Berlin! I’d love the opportunity to take great care of your pets while you’re away! I have a super flexible schedule with work and can generally accommodate most days/times. I live on Martha’s Vineyard and can travel most anywhere on island to sit. My fiancé and I are more than happy to accommodate any and all let needs. With our senior cat experience, and lots of daily and overnight sitting experience, we always treat animals with kindness, patience and respect. We will always ensure animals feel comfortable in our care, and we update owners on their pets as much as possible!

“Sonja was truly amazing! She is nice, trustworthy, friendly and always goes above and beyond to care for my puppy! My puppy is truly happy when she sees Sonja for her daily walks!”

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life, At present, I have a senior mixed breed dog named Ozzie whom we adopted from the local shelter 13 years ago. He has trust issues, fear aggression, and separation anxiety so he has needed a lot of TLC but he is a great dog, with a huge heart. Once you are in his "pack", he will love you for life! Our 9 year old cat, Mist, was adopted from the HART Organization in ME 9 years ago. She is a dog in her alter ego and is simply a love. They both are happy, loved, and spoiled pets! Additionally, I have cared for many friends cats and dogs over the years. I currently work part time from home. I have a lot of flexibility. I can do pet visits, feedings, and dog walks. I am usually available Monday - Fridays, after 9am. At this time, I am not available to take care of pets in my home or at client's. I am looking for daytime dog walks or pet check-ins.

“Rachel is an excellent dog walker. She is so kind and compassionate with animals, and was so great with our can-sometimes-be-a-bit-challenging Border Collie! She was wonderful on his daily walks, and took great care of him in our home while we were away. She is smart and responsible and an all-round great person. Highly recommend!”

“Pekoe loved Sara. She paid every attention to him. Her comments on the Rover card were helpful.”

About: In my family, we’ve had dogs of our own since I was a kid. I have helped walk, feed and bathe the pets of family members and friends for 7+ years now. I love animals and would love to care for your animals! Currently I work a fully remote job as an attorney, which offers flexibility to work for home and care for your pets. I am available 7 days a week for short and long-term jobs with the ability to stop by frequently for walks and potty breaks. I enjoy the outdoors and walking dogs in the quiet pet friendly neighborhood park behind my house. I’m capable of walking dogs on a leash and am careful about how I do so. I follow instructions for feeding and love relaxing and playing with both cats and dogs. I’m also available to stay with your pets in their home environment.

About: I bring high-energy, all-terrain enthusiasm to every pet I care for! Whether I’m biking, swimming, running, walking, rollerblading, or scootering, I stay active so your dog can too. I’ve worked with pups of all ages—from playful puppies to mellow seniors—and tailor each walk or visit to fit their pace and personality. Pets aren’t just cared for, they’re engaged and uplifted. Let’s turn walk time into mission time! I work from home full-time, which means I’m always nearby and flexible. Pet care fits naturally into my day—I schedule walks, playtime, and snuggles around my work. I treat every pet like family—whether they're with me or I'm visiting their home. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and two friendly dogs for social play. I follow any special instructions you provide and can crate your pup if needed. Clean spaces, constant supervision, and a whole lot of love ensure your pet’s comfort and security.

About: I adore dogs and have been a consistent pet and home sitter for several families on Martha’s Vineyard over the last 8 years. I am tidy, responsible, and take care of pets as if they were my own. I love to take daily long walks (3-5 miles) and the companionship of a dog makes this personal routine so much more fun. It’s not possible for me to have a pup of my own in my current housing so getting to spend time with other dogs brings me so much joy. Work freelance as a henna artist and with a catering company on island. I have a varied work schedule with most mornings open, happy to try to make your pet care needs fit into my day. I’m a great communicator and will always make sure I fully understand the needs of your home and pet before I agree to a job. I want us both to have a clear understanding and expectation of the level of care required so that everyone is comfortable. I am very respectful and mindful that every pet and home is unique, the details matter to me.

About: ***AVAILABLE ON MARTHAS VINEYARD ONLY*** - Intermittently on Nantucket but dates of availability only reflect that of MV. Please inquire with a message for Nantucket :) My experience with animals began as a child both with family pets and horseback riding. Being on the farm at such a young age instilled in me a love for animals that has only grown over the years. It also allowed me a front row seat to better understanding animals and their individual behaviors. Throughout the years, I have become proficient in medication administration and personalized feedings scheduled and requirements. I have also been privileged to be around animals of all kinds and ages and I look forward to providing your young and senior pets with the extra love and attention they require and deserve. In my day to day life I am a licensed and trained paramedic which has helped me better harness the patience and understanding often required when helping animals and their families. For those of you that have pets with boundless energy, I go for a minimum 5 mile walk daily that could only be made better by the accompaniment of your four legged family member. I look forward to meeting you and your perfect pets! I currently work part time as a paramedic which allows for a lot of freedom and flexibility in my schedule to help you and your pet. As I will be watching your pet in the comfort of your home- I will always want to know what helps them adjust to change best in your absence. How can I make them, and you, feel more comfortable? What toys do they love? What types of check ins work best for you and what information do you prefer to be kept up to date on? Does your pet have any health history or allergies? What ever you think will make this experience best for you and your pet is information I would love to be made aware of!
