About: Hi! I’m Rebecca — a lifelong animal lover who’s been surrounded by pets and farm animals since the day I was born. From dogs and cats to cows and chickens, caring for animals has always been a part of my everyday life. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure each one feels safe, loved, and happy in my care. ❤️ What I Offer Whether it’s a relaxing neighborhood stroll, an energetic walk to burn off some zoomies, or some extra love and attention while you’re away, I provide reliable, compassionate care. You can count on me to treat your pet like part of my family — because to me, that’s exactly what they are. I work full time Monday-Friday so I’m available for walks in the evenings during the week and all day on the weekends. I’m also exploring options with boarding at my house in the country with my 2 dogs-Lulu and Buddy! During our walks, I: Use secure leashes and harnesses to ensure safety at all times Keep a close eye on surroundings to avoid hazards or stressful encounters Provide a balanced mix of exercise, sniffing time, and positive attention Offer water breaks on warm days and adjust the pace based on your dog’s needs Give plenty of praise, reassurance, and affection to make every walk enjoyable When we return, I always make sure your dog is comfortable, has fresh water, and is settled before I leave. My goal is to make each walk something your dog looks forward to — safe, fun, and full of tail wags! 🐾
“Danielle did an amazing job with our pets while we were out of town. The dogs loved her so much that now we are just chopped liver! Danielle is communicative, thoughtful, responsible and also she is a veterinary professional. We felt very safe having her care for our pets. Thank you!!”

“Samantha did an amazing job caring for my dogs and guinea pigs! She was very communicative, sent cute photos, and was knowledgeable about dog behavior (e.g. separation anxiety at night). I definitely recommend her services and will be using again!”

“Milena was attentive and communicative in taking care of our two cats! She is an animal lover and our boys were happy and healthy due to her home visits. We got lots of pictures and peace of mind knowing they were well looked after.”

About: I helped open a doggy daycare in Boston, MA! I have worked in the industry since 2020 primarily as an operations manager and an attendant! Working with dogs is amazing and I love it so much! I have experience with overnights, daycare, drop in’s and walks! Fairly strong so bring on the biggest and largest dogs! I work in a college setting so summer time I’m usually completely free! I build my schedule around you! My schedule will always be updated on my profile! What ever you are looking for! I have experience with all different types of dogs and understand each one have different needs! If they are more energetic or just want to snuggle it’s fine with me! We will talk about your dogs specific needs and make sure they are met!
“Amanda is awesome! We live pretty far off the beaten path and didn’t think we would have much luck finding someone to help us with our chocolate lab puppy, Mosby! We both work long shift work in Baltimore that overlaps and had no idea what to do. We found Amanda who’s been awesome, always so friendly and willing to help out, even with our odd and random requests of times based on shift work. Quick to respond and she treats Mosby like he’s her own dog. We’re so happy to have found her.”

“We couldn’t be happier with the incredible care Justine provided while we were away! She went above and beyond to ensure our kitties felt safe, loved, and comfortable in our absence. From thoughtful updates and adorable photos to her genuine affection and attention to detail, it was clear our kitties were in the best hands. We came home to relaxed, happy cats—and a perfectly maintained home. Truly exceptional service—we wholeheartedly recommend Justine to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter and will definitely be using her again!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, from a big lab and Australian Sheppard to a goofy pitty! I love all dogs of all sizes and enjoy taking them for walks or jogs. I know how to give pills,baths, and am aware of feeding schedules. I look forward to hearing from you, thank you! I have a full time job at a school, because of this my schedule is predictable and allows me to plan ahead.

I care for them by showing them kindness & love, the cats I have now are very sweet & luckily easy to take care of, I also live with family so I am not their sole owner which allows me to care for my clients pets the same way!
