About: Along with growing up with two dogs and helping to raise a puppy as a teenager, family friends and neighbors have relied on me to take care of their dogs and cats since I was ten. I've worked with all types of dogs, from Shih Tzus to Pit Bull mixes. I'm the one in my family who takes the dogs out on long hikes (or for short walks around the block once they get older), brushes their teeth and fur, gives them baths, and trims their nails. I'm a regular volunteer at cat shelters in cat care, and as a student on the pre-veterinary track, I have shadowed and volunteered at vet clinics to better understand the care that goes into your pets' health. Besides dogs and cats, I also have experience with a myriad of animals, such as hamsters, rabbits, chinchillas, guinea pigs, mice, fish, hermit crabs, geckos, snakes, tortoises, and turtles. I have experience in preparing special diets for pets and other animals with specific health needs, and in senior dog care. I'm a college student, so I fit bookings around my classes and workload. My classes start at 8 am on weekdays, so my general availability is as follows: Monday/Wednesday/Friday: Available after 11:30 am Tuesday: Available after 6 pm Thursday: Heavier on classes, but I may be able to do a quick drop-in in the morning/evening if needed Weekends: Unavailable 8-10 am Saturdays, otherwise available As a lover of all creatures, I take the safety of both pets and wildlife seriously. As such, I will always supervise pets that are outside in yards and keep them on leashes outside fenced-off areas so they are not a danger to others or themselves. If transporting pets in my car, I will keep them safe and secure in a carrier/crate. As a college student who has shared living spaces with new people before, I understand the importance of respecting others' belongings and boundaries. During drop-in visits, I will be sure to respect your home and any rules you may have for your comfort (i.e. no shoes in the house, specific dishes/silverware for pets only, general cleanliness, etc.).

“Matt was so kind, communicative, and amazing with Lou! I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you!!”

“Jonathan is a valuable resource to busy families. On a human level, he is warm, easy going and ontime for each scehduled walk. At pet level, he is kind and adaptive to the personality of our pet.”

“Olivia is terrific! She is extremely punctual and very good with my dog.”

“Carol is very knowledgeable about dogs and has much experience taking care of them. She seems very comfortable with my large excitable Aurora. They had a good walk around the neighborhood and I plan to ask Carol for help again!”

About: I have taken care of not only my own dog , but many others when needed for the past 5+ years, feeding, walking, and etc. I am currently a student, but I am usually available most weekday afternoons and weekends! As a student in college, I have gained lots of responsibility and experience. I have a lot of outdoor space with a fence, access to good walking trails, dog parks, and the ability to keep them well maintained.

About: With eight years of experience in dog care, including a position at a dog daycare, I possess a comprehensive understanding of canine behavior and the ability to anticipate their needs. I am an open and communicative individual who fosters a strong bond with dog owners. We’ve got plenty of time for playtime, cuddles, and outdoor fun! I enjoy walking, so if your dog is up for it, we’ll get lots of exercise together. For walking services I will rely on the instruction of the owner in entering the house, I m a trustworthy person , have been handling dogs for more than 8 years , previously have worked in corporate managing business and teams. I m reliable, respectful and responsible

“Elise was great - she has experience with other dogs, including her own, and supported our puppy throughout the walk. We will be sure to book with her again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages for over 15+ years. I treat every animal as if they are my own and truly love spending time with them. I’d love to help you out and care for your pet! I have a very flexible schedule with remote work and school. I can adjust my schedule as needed to best fit your and your pet’s needs. I would be happy to meet you and your pet in advance, if that’s something you prefer! I feel comfortable caring for pets of all ages and abilities.

About: Dog care is our full time life! We offer small scale, adventure filled boarding and group adventure hikes, with lots of exercise, enrichment and individual attention. Our 60-minute walk option is a trail/park hike with a small group of compatible dog friends🌲🐾 We love petsitting with lots of individual attention, exercise, enrichment, cuddles, and companionship. We typically care for only 1 or 2 client dogs at a time, so your pup really becomes part of our little family while they’re here. Stephanie is home full time, and Ledan works professionally as a dog hiker, so your dog will spend most of their stay with us, whether we’re cuddling at home, hiking at Cat Rock Park or the Fells, swimming, exploring a new trail, or heading out on a dog friendly adventure. Our specialty is definitely pups who want their own vacation while you’re on yours. 🌳 🐾 Luca and Linnie are our two resident 3yo and 2yo Golden Retrievers, who LOVE having friends over. Luca is our little trail master and social butterfly. He’s even helped previously shy or less-socialized dogs come out of their shells and discover how much fun playing with friends can be. We especially specialize in active dogs, larger breeds, and energetic puppies, but every stay is tailored to the individual dog. Some pups want to hike through the woods and cannonball into every pond they see, and some would much rather snooze in our bed. We enthusiastically support both lifestyles, not mutually exclusive! 🤣 At home, pups have free access to our bed and couch and are treated like family. We also love doing little enrichment and training sessions using things we’ve learned through classes with Luca, and we’re happy to keep up with your dog’s routines, including brushing, teeth brushing, ear cleaning, paw care, medications, or other special accommodations. You’ll also get lots of photos and updates along the way, perhaps receiving photographic evidence that your dog has stolen our bed after a long adventure 😴 We have experience with puppies, seniors, special-needs dogs, and oral and injected medications. Pickup and drop-off can also be arranged within about 30 minutes of Waltham. Tell us about your pup, their personality, and what their dream vacation looks like!! 💛 Stephanie is home full time, while Ledan works part time professionally hiking groups of dogs. Pet care is a huge part of our everyday life! Between the two of us, someone is home with the pups most of the time, and our schedule is very flexible around their needs. When Ledan heads out for dog hikes, our boarding pups can often join the adventure when appropriate for them! We want your dog to feel like our home is their home. Pups are welcome on our couch and bed and have plenty of space to play, cuddle, or find a cozy place to rest. We supervise our dogs closely, provide potty breaks as often as needed, and follow each pup’s normal feeding, medication, sleep, and care routines. Because we keep our boarding group small, we’re able to give each dog lots of individual attention and adjust their stay around their personality and needs.

About: I’m not just a dog lover—I’m a proud dog mom of 9 years! I know how much your pup means to you because I feel the same way about mine.

“We were so grateful that Yi could take care of our Baxter when we were out all day! We messaged her in a pinch the night before, and she responded almost immediately letting us know that she could take Baxter for a walk and check in on him. She sent a full update, videos and photos, and even spent some extra time with him practicing some training! We’re already looking forward to her help housesitting on our upcoming trip, because we know our pets will be in such great hands!! 😊”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and pets of all personalities, providing dependable and compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. From daily walks and playtime to feeding, companionship, and in-home pet sitting, I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I am currently working part time as a dog walker Monday-Thursday 9-2. I have availability after 2 or before 9 and I have availability Friday-Sunday all day. I prefer to care for pets in the clients home depending on the service needed. I have 2 dogs of my own so I don’t have the room to board in my own home.

“Isis was exceptional! This was a great experience for my pups! She was very attentive to detail, gentle and very accommodating. My pups are usually pretty timid with new people, but they were instantly drawn to her. It says a lot about her as a person and pet carer. Thank you again!”

About: I have been around dogs all of my life, once I was able to properly hold a leash there was no stopping me from hanging out with our 4-legged furry friends! I am a frequent dog walker for coworkers, friends, and family. I also have dog sat on multiple occasions for coworkers, friends, and family whenever they needed me. Most importantly I rescued a very active and very spoiled French Bulldog 6 years ago and he has made my love for dogs even stronger somehow! As much as I love dogs, I also love cats! I will make friends with any sort of animal if I am able to! I work a hybrid schedule for a corporate office. I am in the office on Tuesdays & Wednesdays, and I work from home the other 3 days. Monday, Thursday, Friday I take personal walks on my lunch break as well as after 5pm and would love for a furry friend to join me! Saturdays & Sundays I am open as well! Happy to walk your pup wherever in the neighborhood or area, we'd get out steps in! I have walked dogs in the past ranging from 15lbs, all the way up to 120lbs!

About: I've been doing pet care since I was 8 and have lots of experience with animals of all ages and personalities. Typical animal care from me looks like refilling food and water, walks, cleaning litter boxes, and finding creative ways to keep your animals thoroughly entertained. This summer I'm taking online college classes so my schedule is super flexible. The only set times I'll be busy doing virtual classes are from 11:00-4:30 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Please let me know what times work for you. I will always make sure to keep your dogs on leashes when not in fenced in areas to ensure your pup's safety is accounted for.
