“Sheila is great! She took care of my two dogs this evening and made them feel comfortable. One of my dogs has a severe anxiety disorder so taking him for a walk is no easy feat. She handled it and got him to walk for her. I am so grateful to Sheila for this. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a dog walker.”
“Wiktoria is the best! She is prompt, reliable and really easy to communicate with. We had her walk Murphy and she was wonderful - we'll be using Wiktoria whenever we need someone to help with Murphy.”
About: I absolutely love dogs. I have cared for my own dog my whole life, and he is my world! I will care for yours the same way! I am a student and have plenty of time on weekends and between classes to care for and walk the pups! I love walks too! I will cater to whatever specific needs or requests you have. My schedule is very flexible as well so just let me know what you need and I can help you!
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and a bunch of other animals, and I have always loved taking care of them. My family, neighbors, and friends have all relied on me to take care of their pets over the years, whether it's for walks, check-ins, or overnights, and I would love to do the same for your pet. I'm a college student and have plenty of time during the week for quick check-ins and walks, and I will be able to stay overnight most weekdays and on weekends. I am very comfortable around dogs and would have no problem going on walks, crating your dog, administering most medicine, or doing any other tasks that may be required.
“I just started with Laura a week ago. So far Laura and my dog are creating a wonderful bond. Laura is terrific! She is trustworthy, she has a key to my home. I love all the footage I receive whilst she’s with my large dog. I’m very impressed with Laura’s depth of knowledge in dog care. Also she is very humble in her personal accomplishments relating to human and animal communication and skills. I highly recommend Laura.”
About: I am great with all dogs. I love taking care of them and enjoy taking them for walks just to see how happy they are to be outside and exploring nature. Depending on your dogs personality, I would be happy to play with them or if they prefer to hangout more quietly I’ll cuddle up with them while I complete schoolwork or watch a movie. My family has had dogs my entire life so I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs. Additionally, If your dog likes playing with other dogs, I have two that love to play! I would be happy to take them with me for walks, and give them new friends (and more importantly help them get rid of all that energy). My dogs don’t travel with me all the time so if your dog isn’t a fan of others I’ll make sure to leave them at home. My hope is to give your dog attention that will make them feel safe and cared for when you are not around.

“Alexandra is an excellent dog walker for our 20 lb dog. He tends to do a lot of jumping up, but Alexandra gets him on track very early on in the walks. Our dog is always very excited to see her drive up in her car. She is very reliable, and accommodates our changing circumstances.”

About: Hi, I can’t wait to be your furbaby sitter❤️ Dogs make me happy & that’s the best job, something that makes you happy ☺️ When you love what you do it doesn’t feel like work🫶🏼 I only watch 1-2 dogs at a time so they get my undivided attention 🥰 I am Pet First Aid & CPR certified so in case of an emergency I have the knowledge of the importance of prevention of illness, injury & early veterinary care. I’ve had different breeds of dogs all my life. But now I just have 1 tiny pink dog who fully vaccinated & is very friendly and sweet, she loves to make new furry friends. We love all animals. We hope to make some new furry friends ☺️ But I also understand some dogs do not get along with others so Marshmallow has her own little private room where I keep her most of the time so if your dog doesn’t get along with other dogs then they can have full range of the house 😊 Breeds I’ve cared for in my life & that I have experience with: Bichon Frise, Siberian Husky, Maltese, Pitbull, Pomeranian, Chihuahua, Golden Retriever, Cockapoo, Goldendoodle, French Bulldog, American Bully, Yorkie, German Shepard, Labradors, Pomsky, Shih Tzu, Havanese, Cairn Terrier, Boston Terrier, Saint Bernard, Labradoodle, Standard Poodles, Mini Poodles, Border Collie, Duck Tolling, Samoyed, & Mixed Breeds. I have experience with dogs who have separation anxiety. As well as disabilities such as blind dogs and dogs who can’t walk on their own. I also have experience with terminally ill dogs. My dog was diagnosed with cancer in 2020 & I gave her all the love and attention and care she needed and made her last months comfortable as I could before she crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge. Rest in peace Princess 👑 I make my own schedule so I have plenty of time to give your fur baby the love, care and attention they need & deserve. If I’m watching your dog then that means I’m with them full time at home so they will get walks and plenty of attention! I have a big living room dedicated to pets that is pet friendly with multiple beds, blankets, food bowls, water & plenty of TOYS! With plenty of space to play. I have a big fenced backyard for exercise. The fenced in back yard is perfect especially for those hot summer days so your fur babies paws don’t get too hot. I’m also a personal trainer so I love to go on walks/runs with dogs who have a lot of energy. But I also like to relax at home and take naps so that works for dogs who have low energy.
About: I’m an extremely empathic, detail-oriented, very patient and fun-loving human who really loves creating connections with people and animals. My spirit animal is a lion!

I am unable to care for pets in my home, as my family members are allergic; however, I am happy to assist with drop-in visits, walks, or pet-sitting in your home.

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years, and what sets me apart is my hands-on experience and personal dedication. I successfully trained my own dog from 4 months old to ring a bell when he needed to go potty, bark to communicate when he needed to go outside, and follow basic commands like sit and wait. I’ve also cared for senior pets and have experience adding medication to food for both dogs and cats. I genuinely love connecting with animals and take pride in providing calm, consistent, and attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day—whether that’s for walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable and cared for. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean environment with a spacious, secure yard where they can play and relax. When caring for pets in apartments or condos in Boston, I’ve had great experiences following each pet’s routine closely, ensuring they feel comfortable and safe. I always prioritize cleanliness, clear communication with pet parents, and a calm, respectful approach in any space I enter.
