“Linh was so professional and patient with our pup. She responded quickly to messages in the app and then suggested setting up a meet & greet where she asked great questions about our dog’s routine and habits. Otter is a big dog and on top of that he’s a high energy dog and can be a lot to handle, but Linh was so sweet with him. We’ll definitely be asking Linh to come back to walk Otter!”

“Kate obviously knows her dogs. She’s kind and gentle, yet clearly in charge. Our Bisbee liked her right away - and he’s a bit judge-y about people. Kate’s communications were excellent, she arrived on time, took Bisbee on the walk we requested and returned a happy pup to us. Thanks, Kate!”


“Devon has been walking Millie for several weeks and she is always happy to see her! We love Devon’s Rover Card notes about their time together - nice, personal touch.”

About: I care for dogs like no other. They are there for for you when your down and are the best. I want to be sure they are taken care of. Right now I have a flexible schedule. Any day of the week works pretty much for me right now. Early morning to afternoon is good. Make sure I have what I need to keep them safe. Make sure they have a crate or fence in their home. Or if the dog is okay off leash.

About: Hi! I’m a mom of boys with a flexible schedule and some extra time during school hours, so pet care feels like the perfect fit. I love animals and enjoy getting outside for walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their people are away I have a pretty flexible schedule during school hours, so pet care fits in easily throughout my week. I enjoy getting outside for walks, spending time with animals, and making sure pets feel cared for and comfortable while their owners are away. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable, whether that’s for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, or just some extra attention. I’ll follow your instructions and routine to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and cared for.
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. Growing up around dogs and other animals, I developed a deep appreciation for understanding each pet’s unique personality, needs, and quirks. Today, our home is a safe, loving environment where every dog is treated like family. I work from home with a flexible schedule, ensuring that dogs in my care receive frequent supervision, companionship, exercise, and affection throughout the day. Whether your pup enjoys active walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply relaxing with people nearby, I tailor their experience to match their individual needs and comfort level. Our family plays a big role in making every dog feel welcome. Our teenagers absolutely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether it’s playing fetch, giving belly rubs, going on walks, or simply showering them with attention and affection. Dogs staying with us quickly become part of the family and receive plenty of love, companionship, and one-on-one interaction throughout their stay. We are fortunate to have a large backyard and direct access to a beautiful conservation area, providing endless opportunities for exercise, exploration, and outdoor enrichment. From leisurely walks and nature adventures to active play sessions, dogs have plenty of space to stretch their legs, burn energy, and enjoy the outdoors in a safe and supervised environment. What I Offer * Large backyard with direct access to a conservation area * Daily walks, outdoor adventures, and enrichment activities * Consistent supervision and companionship * Personalized care based on your dog’s personality and routine * A calm, family-oriented environment * Lots of love and attention from our dog-loving teens * Regular updates and communication for peace of mind Please Note * Boarding pick-ups and drop-offs are preferred between 9:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. * Additional fees may apply for dogs requiring significantly more care than average. Additional Care Fees Because some dogs require substantially more time, supervision, and individualized attention, the following surcharges may apply: * Puppies under 1 year old: +$10–$20 per day (depending on age, training level, and care requirements) * Dogs with separation anxiety, generalized anxiety, or those requiring constant supervision: +$10–$20 per day * Large dogs (50+ lbs.) requiring additional handling, exercise, or supervision: Fee determined during the meet-and-greet * Untrained dogs or dogs not fully housebroken: Fee determined during the meet-and-greet I will discuss all pricing transparently during the meet-and-greet to ensure the best fit for both your dog and our home. I have experience caring for dogs of various breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn about their routines, commands, preferences, and behaviors before their stay. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, playful, or enjoys a quieter environment, we adapt our care to help them feel right at home. My goal is to create an stress-free experience for both pets and their owners by providing dependable, attentive, and personalized care. Plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles (when welcomed), and individualized attention are all part of the experience. I have a 9 years old, friendly doodle to keep your furry family member company while you are away. I can crate or provide a calm private space, if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 5. I also worked at a veterinary and boarding clinic in Sudbury for few months and gained a lot of experience working with all kinds of dogs and cats. I’m currently still in school, but I do have free during the day. So if you’re close by I can definitely pop in for about 15-20 minutes. I also am able to stop by in the mornings around 8 or 8:30 am, and my afternoons are usually pretty free. I have two dogs, a cockapoo and a yorkiepoo that are spoiled rotten, and believe the same should go for your wonderful pet. During my visits we will spend time outside, play with toys, and maybe do some training.
“Heidi took care of my dogs while we were on vacation. Informative updates and pictures of my dogs having a great time allowed us to fully enjoy our time away. It was a big comfort to know that our little ones were in good hands. Highly recommended.”
“Brenda is fantastic. Brenda came to meet my dogs before starting. It was important to Brenda (and to me) that Lulu and Charlie were comfortable with her. Brenda is very communicative, friendly, careful/responsible, and wonderful with my pups. She has provided excellent advice and treats my pets as if they were her own. I highly recommend Brenda.”

About: I have worked for the WAG! app for over a year now. I've always enjoyed caring for friends and neighbors pets when they were away from home. I've also always had at least 2 pets of my own. I'm currently taking the year off to go back to school. Since all of my courses are online, I am able to remain home each day to care for the animals in my care. I have a large yard that is partially fenced in with a very long run setup across the yard. I also live extremely close to walking trails and have private beach access.
About: I have adopted 7 adult/senior rescue dogs over the years. In addition, I’ve enjoyed pet sitting for my friends and neighbors! I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I genuinely love spending time with animals and learning what makes them happy and relaxed! Recently retired to spend more time doing things I love: Taking care of animals is at the top of that list! My time is fairly flexible. I'm especially interested in ad hoc or emergency care. I am a responsible, experienced pet owner and homeowner who is conscientious and loves animals. My calm demeanor helps gain the trust of anxious pets.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 11. I have 6 years of experience working with anxious dogs, however I wouldn’t recommend boarding your anxious dog at a strangers house(might be way to stressful for your furry friend). I am also experienced with cat care and dealing with cats of all temperaments. I wake up early. I mostly stay in the apartment. I am currently self employed, so I have a lot of flexibility throughout my day. Can pet proof home if your pet gets into things a lot. Very careful with front doors, because I know some pets are not trained to stay when the door is opened.
About: My experience encompasses daily walks, meticulous feeding schedules, and recognizing subtle signs of distress. I prioritize creating a safe, loving, and stimulating environment, ensuring your pets feel secure and happy in your absence. My approach is tailored to each animal's unique needs, fostering a bond of trust and affection. I am going back to school to show my son it can still be done at my age. Your pets will fit into my schedule perrrfectly. I have a very loved 8 year old rescued cat that my son adores. Although I don't offer services at my home your pets will be loved and cared for like my own.
“We couldn't be happier with Nick's dog-walking services! Our energetic puppy absolutely loves his walks with Nick. After just two weeks of service, we can see a significant positive impact on our pup's behavior and overall happiness. Nick is just what we needed—reliable, friendly, and great with our furry friend. Highly recommended!”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I have two Bernedoodles, Cosmo and Shep, who are the loves of my life and have taught me so much about caring for dogs. From daily walks and playtime to keeping them happy, healthy, and comfortable, I’ve gained years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels. I’ll treat your dog with the same care, attention, and affection that I give my own. I currently work as a host in the evenings, which gives me flexibility during the day for dog walks and drop-in visits. I’m generally available throughout the week and love spending my free time with animals whenever I can. While I am unavailable on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I strive to be as available as possible on other days to provide reliable care, exercise, and attention for your pets. Whether your dog needs a walk, a quick check-in, or some extra companionship during the day, I’d be happy to help! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I understand that every dog has their own routine, personality, and needs, and I take the time to follow your instructions carefully to help them feel comfortable and secure. During walks, I prioritize leash safety, pay close attention to my surroundings, and make sure your dog gets the exercise and attention they need. For drop-in visits, I’ll ensure your pet is cared for according to their normal routine, including feeding, water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also believe in keeping owners updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Sally is beyond incredible. She went above and beyond her call of duty to make sure our Sawyer was beautifully taken care of. She is an angel with invisible wings taking care of all the worry we had...leaving Sawyer while we away. I highly highly highly recommend Sally for your fur baby's needs.
