About: With years of personal experience caring for my own dogs, plus regularly looking after my mother's dog, I offer reliable and responsible dog walking services. I'm comfortable with various breeds and temperaments, and my priority is always your dog's safety and happiness. Let's make sure your pup gets the exercise and attention they need! Im currently working part time. So I will have alot of free time to care for your pet. I live on cape cod year round so I can build a routine if necessary. I believe in maintaining your pet's routine as much as possible to minimize stress and ensure their comfort. Before you leave, we'll discuss their feeding schedule, exercise habits, potty breaks, and any medications they might need. I'll stick to these routines diligently, making sure they feel secure in their familiar surroundings. This also includes keeping their favorite toys, blankets, and sleeping areas just as they like them.

About: I've cared for pets of my own growing up, both dogs and cats. I have also worked at a local animal hospital so I do have some experience behind the scenes. I work full time job as a vet technician at a local vet hospital. I will make things work, the more notice of a need to petsit/dog walk the better! Depending on the owners own wishes, that would determine how I’d care for them! Clients before have left me a paper of instructions and I’ve found that to be very helpful. Always treating homes and pets with respect!
About: I have had dogs all while growing up, I absolutely adore them. I am used to being around and caring for dogs of all sizes and ages as well. I am not afraid of dogs and can comfortably handle all energy types! I have been regularly dog sitting and walking for the past 5 years so I am very comfortable in most situations. I am a recent college grad working full time currently but I would love to spend any and all of my free time with and caring for your dog :) I work Tuesday- Saturday 8am-4pm, Sunday and Monday are my days off. I will not be able to care for pets in my home. In a clients home, I would follow whatever protocols they have regarding their dog(s) and property in order to ensure satisfaction and peace of mind.
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. My family has always had multiple dogs in our home and a house isn’t a home without a dog. For years I have cared for friends and family dogs while they were either at work or vacation. Now that I am retired I have a lot more time to give helping others who need support to care for their dog. I am available all hours of the day and night. I can pick up dogs or they can be brought to my home. I am semi retired and this allows me lots of flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that backs up to conservation land that I use to exercise my own dogs. If allowed by owner, walks on the beach at low tide is a favorite activity for our dogs. During the summers I walk the many trails this area has to offer, many with ponds the dogs love to swim in.
About: I have been a dog owner for the last 25 years. I have raised three Labrador retrievers, each unique and special in their own way. I enjoy being around dogs and I frequently babysit overnight for my friend’s dogs. During the summer, I am available moat days and have a flexible schedule to help accommodate pet owners. As a pet owner myself, I know things come up and you might need a little extra help. I consider myself to be a great pet owner. I have always trained my own dogs due to my background as a BCBA, although I do not train dogs I understand positive reinforcement and the need for consistency. My own dogs have always come first, even when caring for multiple ACL surgeries.
“Chelsea was great. She came and met the dogs and I appreciate how flexible she was with her schedule and she came exactly on time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for quality pet care. Thanks again Chelsea!”
About: I have had dogs and cats since 5 years old. My present dog is 14 years old and acts like a housebroken puppy. My last cat lived to 19 years. Retired so available a lot. Need to be busy to stay young and healthy. Taking care of pets and great-grandchildren will get me to my goal of being 100!!! My dog has a fenced yard. He is leashed when we walk and I even have a seat belt for him in the car, always in the back seat.

Frank H.
“Finding a reliable dog walker can be a challenge, but Frank maked it so easy! He's absolutely fantastic and has been a lifesaver for me and my dog Dormer. From day one, Frank has been incredibly dependable. He's always on time, and I never have to worry about whether Dormer will get his walk. Frank is clearly a dog lover. Dormer absolutely adores him and comes back from their walks happy and tired, which is exactly what I hope for. Frank isn't just walking the dog; he's truly caring for him. I was nervous because Dormer can be , how do I say this....?....a challenge?....when he first meets someone. Frank arrived and within minutes he was literally smiling at Frank and laying down exposing his belly for rubs!!! If you're looking for a dog walker who is professional, trustworthy, and genuinely great with dogs, Frank is your guy. I can't recommend him highly enough!”
