“Sydney has walked my dog over several holiday weekends and has been extremely reliable, punctual and kind and patient as my dog gets to know her! She sends detailed and thoughtful updates, and always makes sure he’s comfortable and safe. I really appreciate her consistency, professionalism and warmth and highly recommend her!”


“Responded to a last-minute request and provided prompt response to questions. She was also willing to meet my pup before walking. Showed up on time and was very sweet and patient with my little princess Vizsla!”


About: I’ve had my family dog, a vizsla for 9 years, in a house that fostered and helped other dogs. As his primary human, I have a lot of experience with high energy, big, clumsy, and loving dogs. Long playtimes, hikes in Ashland, Whitehall, Hopkinton and cozy naps are the norm for me, and guaranteed for your furry friend. When I am not in college, my life revolves around my pets. The same would be true for any furry guests. After waking up, I feed the dogs, and then take them out for morning sunbathing and bathroom break. At 11, it’s time for morning exercise. At 1, when playtime ends (although sometimes my dog gets tired early!) it’s time for afternoon nap. 4pm is a second play or walk. At 6pm it’s time for dinner, and then evening enrichment. Finally, bedtime for pets is 9 or 10pm My home has a large yard with 2acres of forested land and a creek. It is not fenced however. I watch any animals in my care when they go outside at all times, in case of any accident. There are lots of beds and couches for rest, and although my dog is not crate trained, I am familiar with the practice, and can crate dogs if need be. Pets are family, so I try and keep an eye on them as much as possible. Cleaning products are pet friendly, and doors to cupboards are locked.

“Amy was the BEST! She went above and beyond to make my pup happy, and was so response to my messages. She also sent me lots of photos of my pup on each walk/visit which was wonderful. I will definitely use Amy again in the future, she was amazing and even spent extra time with my dog at each visit. 10/10 recommend!”


About: I have had cats for about 12 years and just fell in love with them. One of my cats currently has kidney disease and I make her own food for her and carefully watch her. Both my cats are elderly now and cared for them since I rescued them as kittens. I have also owned dogs and taken care of them as well since they were puppies til they were elderly. I am just an animal lover all around. I find animals truly a gift to humans! I own two businesses and make my own schedule, so my schedule is flexible. I am able to work from home and stop in the morning, afternoon and evening and also weekends. Or whenever you need me to be honest. I have an extra room that I have made into a cat room with toys and obstacle courses and tons of stuff to do for the cat with litter box, food and water, I live alone but two cats do live here but would not enter the room. I can also go to clients homes and stay with the pet and play with them or stay over. I am respectful, quiet and fun.

“Tricia was wonderful with our puppy Toby! This was our first time leaving him for a longer period of time, but we knew he was in good hands with her!”


“One of the nicest and most thorough walkers on this platform. She handled our pups with absolute care, was insanely helpful and kind.”


About: I am an animal lover with a cat of my own. I’m a bit of an anxious pet parent, and I like to feel secure knowing she has the best of care when I go away. So I will always care for your pet (and your home) as if they are my own. I always make sure to note special instructions and details to ensure your pet is well cared for, happy, and safe. I make a point to bring in any mail/packages, water plants, and put trash cans out if you’re gone for an extended period of time. You don’t have to worry about a thing while you’re away. For each 30 minute session I make sure your cat or dog get pets, attention, and playtime. I have received a covid booster, and am willing to wear a mask in your home. I am available afternoons and evenings Monday through Friday. Mondays and Fridays I am pretty flexible all day. I’m available all day on Saturday and Sunday. I will always be sure to treat your home with the utmost respect, and follow all instructions to take the best care of your cat or dog.

“Lori is great with Fox and always sends lots of pictures. I truly appreciate her willingness to be flexible with me. This time she couldn’t do Wednesday as she had booked someone else’s dog for daycare. So we made Tuesday work out with my travel plans. Thanks Lori! Fox will see you again soon.”


About: I’ve fostered over 10 different breed, ages, and personalities of dogs! This assures that I can care for a wide variety of pups while prioritizing safety, meeting their needs, and ensuring they have fun! Currently I work in the afternoon (3:30 - 6:30) so I am available for morning and early afternoon walks on weekdays along with some weekend availability! Unfortunately at this time I am not able to house pups, I’m only available for walking services. If necessary or preferred I am always happy to take your dog to a near by neighborhood or rail trail if your area is not suited for walks! I drive a regularly cleaned Subaru and am happy to load up the car with comfort items!

About: I absolutely adore animals, especially dogs! I am always the first one anyone in my family reaches out to if they need a sitter / walker! I also currently have 2 mini labradoodles, Bosco and Sparky who I love so much :) I just graduated college and am living at home currently, so my schedule is very flexible on any time or day for any type of sitting, drop in visit, or walk! I live in my house with my 2 other mini labradoodles and family. We have a fenced and very spacious backyard and also access to some very nice walking paths not far from the house as well!

“Very happy with my Dog’s walk and the photos. Thanks :)”


“Alyssa is wonderful with my new pup, Fiona!! She is very responsive, respectful and always on time for her visits. I know Fiona enjoys her time walking with Alyssa to break up the day!”


“Kim is the absolute best!!!”


“Chelsea was great communicating and sharing updates. Our poodle was initially shy, and she was very patient and caring until he got comfortable. We’ll definitely have her check on and walk our dog again. Highly recommend her.”


About: What sets me apart is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I treat every pet like my own- making sure they're not just safe, but also happy, and well cared for. I follow instructions closely and communicate clearly with pet owners. Pet care is an important part of my daily and waekly routine. I currently care for my own dog, Boston Terrier, who is 15. Her name is Lola. I make sure she is fed, walked and taken care of. Since she's a senior dog, I make sure I stay alert to her health and behavior. I make sure my dog has a clean, safe space, fresh food, and water, regular exercise as she permits, and lots of hugs and kisses. I make sure they are comfortable and well-monitored throughout the day.

“Emily is awesome and takes wonderful care of our dog… she sends pictures of her time with him and leaves thorough details about how he did while in her care. We are beyond pleased!!”


About: My journey in pet care began in 2016 when I brought home a golden doodle who quickly became part of the family. Over time, I developed a deep understanding of how pets, whether dogs, cats, or other companions, bring comfort, joy, and emotional support to the people who love them. I ultimately chose to have her stay with my ex-husband so she could be a consistent source of support for our daughter during her time with him. Since then, I’ve cared for a variety of animals, each with their own unique personalities and needs. I’m calm, attentive, and patient, and I always take the time to make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and comfortable in my care, whether I’m walking them, feeding them, playing with them, or simply keeping them company. I work from home three days a week, so I’m around during the day to give your pets attention, playtime, and care. I’m also fully available on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. My flexible schedule allows me to tailor care to your pet’s needs, whether that means midday cuddles, structured walks, or keeping your pet company while you’re away. I take a calm, caring approach to every pet I look after, whether I’m visiting your home or caring for them in mine. I live in a townhouse with plenty of walking paths nearby, making it easy to give dogs the exercise they need. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique temperament and routine, and I always prioritize safety, cleanliness, and creating a stress-free environment wherever I provide care.

About: Hi, my names Liv! I have plenty of experience with animals including taking on the responsibility of having my own dog at 19 years old! My emotional support dog has been with me through it all including living on campus with me since my freshman year at college which was quite the adventure! Being around animals my whole life has changed my view on many things and has made me want to help out family’s with animals as well. We all need a break from our loved ones at times, even our furry little friends. i’m at my best when i’m taking care of animals, so take a break and know your precious babies will be in good hands :) I am currently working nights at a restaurant which gives me plenty of opportunity prior to stop by and play with your loving pet(s) in the sun! I currently have a large yard and plenty of toys available for my pup, giving her the needed space to get all her energy out (and of course to have some fun!)

“Felipe did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs! He was incredibly kind, attentive, and communicative throughout the entire stay. This was the second time he’s watched them, and it’s clear my dogs absolutely adore him. He treats them with the same care and love that I would, which gives me so much peace of mind.

Mike was great! He stayed with my Henrietta for almost an hour while i was unable to get home to let her out to take care of her business!…I would not hesitate to book with him again!

Alina did a great job. She did a great job communicating beforehand. She and Izzy walked and played in the yard. She was dependable and very accommodating. I would use her again.

Jacqueline is fantastic and our lovable large Bernedoodle loves her. She is very responsive and I will always use her.

Emily is wonderful and very helpful with her check in's for Dembe's potty break and play time. Emily has been terrific with keeping me so well informed with updates and pictures.
