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.
“Taylor did an excellent job. I got photos and updates while I was away . Taylor took the dogs for walks and she was always on time. Overall I would totally hire Taylor again!”
“Karen made drop-in visits to care for my cat while I was on vacation. She came twice a day, early in the morning and again at dinnertime. She provided food, fresh water, changed the litter, and kept the areas clean. She also took away the used cans to recycle & took away the litter. The texts and photos were reassuring. I definitely recommend Karen. She was thorough and reliable.”

About: With a deep passion for animals and years of hands-on experience, I bring a level of care and understanding that goes beyond the basics. I’ve volunteered at a local animal shelter for over two years, where I gained experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments—including those who needed extra patience and love. This experience taught me how to read canine body language, build trust, and handle all kinds of situations calmly and confidently. I’m also entering my third year working at a dog daycare, where I manage group play sessions, monitor behavior, and ensure each dog is safe, engaged, and happy throughout the day. I’ve worked with puppies and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable tailoring care to meet each dog's unique needs. What sets me apart is my commitment to treating every dog like my own—whether we’re going for a walk, spending the night, or just sharing a moment of calm. You can trust that your dog will not only be cared for but genuinely loved. I currently work at a dog daycare from Monday to Wednesday, 8 AM to 5 PM, but I have a lunch break from 12 PM to 2 PM, and I’m happy to do quick drop-ins or walks during that time if you’re nearby. I'm fully available on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for dog walking, pet sitting, and overnight stays. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, a weekend buddy, or some loving company while you're away, I’m here to help! Whether your dog is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, their comfort and well-being come first. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routines, and needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. I will treat your home and your pup with complete respect. I follow all your instructions closely, from feeding to medication to where your dog likes to nap. I keep things tidy and make sure your dog feels safe and relaxed while you’re away. I’ll also send regular updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.
“Thank you Alexa for all your care and attention to details about Old Pete is as happy as a little clam cake. Thanks for your attention during all this Patriot's Day activities. (Saturday, Monday and Friday).”
“Caitlin was a wonderful caretaker for our bunny! I really appreciated how responsive Caitlin was to all of my messages. Caitlin was also very punctual for all of her visits and took great care of our bun. I look forward to having Caitlin visit Pee Wee again in the future!”
About: Hi, I'm Steve! I'm a lifelong dog lover and proud human to Millie, my sweet and energetic 7-year-old black Lab. Millie and I are inseparable—whether we’re walking wooded trails, splashing at the beach, or just relaxing at home, she keeps me active and always smiling. I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I understand the unique needs of each stage in a dog's life—gentle attention for older pups, structure and patience for young ones, and plenty of love for all in between. I'm also comfortable administering medications and adapting to dogs with special diets or mobility issues. What sets me apart? I treat every dog as if they’re my own—because I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. I'm reliable, communicative, and always happy to send updates and photos so you can relax while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just a cozy companion, I’m here to help. Millie and I can’t wait to meet your pup! Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. My dog Millie and I start every morning with a walk—rain or shine—which sets the tone for a calm, structured day. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. In the evenings, we usually head out for a longer walk or spend time at the beach or park. Caring for pets isn’t a side task for me—it’s part of how I live. Whether your dog needs an active routine, quiet companionship, or extra TLC, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. In your home, I respect your space and your dog’s routine. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and crate training to play preferences and special care needs. Whether you have a shy senior or a high-energy pup, I adapt my care to meet their individual needs and keep stress to a minimum while you’re away. No matter the setting, my priority is your dog’s well-being—and your peace of mind.
About: I grew up with golden retrievers but have cared for and spent time with dogs of many breeds and sizes. Building trust and showing love is the name of the game. I work part time and enjoy being active outside so there’s nothing like enjoying the outdoors walking and playing with a dog. I know how important a good long and fun walk or just a nice long visit is especially when a dog is missing his/her loved ones. Safety is my main priority and I’m always aware of other animals, obstacles and the environment. I double check everything. Your dog’s safety, comfort and happiness is my priority.
“It’s always a 5 star visit from Marie. After a two week stay in the kennel Marie picked up Sunny while we were on our way home from the airport. Marie had her settled in, fed and we were greeted by a happy dog.”
About: I have had dogs my whole life, from Shih-Tzus to Golden Retrievers and I’ve never met one I didn’t love! I miss my own furry friend so I want to take great care of yours. I recently boarded my Mom’s dog for three months while she was unable to care for him, and we both had a blast. Now that he has gone home I’m ready to open up my house to new dogs to care for. I am currently doing pet care full time so I am flexible and fully attentive to your furry friends! I have regular daily clients but can adjust my schedule to fit your needs! I provide care mainly in my clients homes. All my clients trust me in their spaces as I am very respectful of their space. Your pet will receive great care in a comfortable environment for them.

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!”
