“Pat’s been doing a wonderful job with Rudy. I know he loves his time with her and she is dedicated to making ours dogs happy. She takes the time to interact with them and learn what they like. Couldn’t be more grateful. She’s also had great advice for me along the way when I would ask for help. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her!”

“Milo had such a great experience today! 😊 Paisley was incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly cared about him. She made sure he got everything he needed, followed all of my instructions, and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. It’s obvious she genuinely enjoy working with dogs, and Milo came back happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her and will be continuously using her walking services. Thank you for taking such great care of my boy!”

About: I've had cats and dogs for most of my life. I'm experienced with caring for elder dogs and dogs with disabilities. People are often surprised by how comfortable their pets are with me, even pets who don't normally approach new people. I've studied cat body language to be able to better care for my two cats. My availability is consistently pretty open. I work part time with a flexible schedule, so I'll have ample time for pet sitting and dog walking. Your home is your sanctuary. I'm a quiet, respectful human who will happily care for your pets while respecting your home. I'm happy to play with your pets to keep them engaged while they wait for you to get back.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs and I’ve taken care of them and loved them for forever. I’ve recently adopted two kittens and I love to play with them. I’m a student right now with a flexible schedule so I could check in on pets on pretty much every day and throughout the day. I have energy to play with young cats or dogs and can fulfill all their needs. My services will change depending on the pets personality and what they’re needs are.

About: I've taken care of dogs and homes since I was in grade school, and so have 14 years of pet- and house-sitting experience. You can rely on me for numerous daily walks, active play dates, timely medicine provision, prescribed feedings, and even teeth cleaning. I’ve been a proud dog-owner since birth and currently have a sweet and goofy rescue fur baby (Armando). Rover is my only obligation as of now, as I don’t currently work. I’m an early riser as well as a night owl, so I can walk your pup(s) super early or late ~ and any time in between! My partner and I share a rescue dog in our home, so I’m available to house sit or do overnight stays since he can take care of our dog when I’m gone. Our doggo is super sweet, friendly, and loves other pets!! I have a very safe, gated 1,00 sqft house right off of the Deerfield Beach Island strip. we have a backyard with two permanent leashes so your pet(s) can hang out with me outside in close proximity. In my home your dogs will be allowed on all the furniture. In your home, I will respect whatever boundaries you have in place for your pets :)

About: I’ve worked hands-on with animals for years and currently volunteer/work at an animal sanctuary multiple days a week and The Good Dog Spot Northampton boarding location I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, medication routines, cleaning enclosures, monitoring behavior changes, and handling animals safely and calmly. I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, including high-energy breeds and more anxious personalities. I’m very observant and take animal welfare seriously — I notice small behavior changes quickly and always prioritize safety and comfort.🩷 I will add photos of my happy dog customers to my profile! I also have my wildlife rehabbers license :) I currently just switched from full time to part time at the animal sanctuary and Good Dog Spot, so caring for animals is already built into my daily routine. Pet sitting allows me to gain even more hands-on experience while earning extra income doing something I genuinely care about. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting outside of my Doggy Daycare shifts, and I manage my schedule carefully to ensure each pet receives consistent, attentive care. For everyone’s safety and comfort, I provide care in my client’s home only. I have a 14-year-old dog and two rescue hedgehogs who are territorial with unfamiliar animals, so I don’t host pets in my home. This helps prevent unnecessary stress for both my animals and yours. When caring for pets in your home, I follow routines exactly as instructed and prioritize keeping their environment calm, clean, and secure. I monitor behavior, appetite, and energy levels closely and will always communicate promptly if anything seems off. Your pet’s wellbeing and safety are my top priorities.

About: All my life I’ve had a variety of different animals all including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc. You name it, I have owned it. In some time spans all at the same time. I would love to take all this experience that I was fortunate enough to obtain throughout the years and bring it to your home! I am currently enrolled at the Western New England University. At the time being as I am on summer break I am looking for something to do to take up all this newly acquired time. As well as make some extra money to go towards my tuitions. Since I have a love for animals I thought this was the perfect opportunity for me. At the moment I currently have 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 rabbits and a cocktail. As you can imagine yes they can certainly be a handful but I couldnt imagine my life without them. Each and everyone being on a schedule of their own which is always never a problem.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years now, my aunt had very sweet german shepard that I would always walk, feed and play with.

About: I have a 6 year old Jack Russel/Chihuahua that is the sweetest most loving girl! I have trained her myself since she was a puppy, I have learned SO much. I have a schedule that’s a little all over the place but I’m willing to work out different times through the week that best suits you and your dog. It’s something that would have to be discussed based on your wants and needs for your dog. All dogs are different, every dog owner is different. But I would be sure to feed, give them water and walk as needed.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Russell. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
