Dog Walking Wayland

“I am very thankful I found Lucy to drop in and walk my pup while I am at work! She has been so easy to work with and always sends lots of pictures with the daily reports. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. Thanks Lucy!”

About: I love all furry friends - I have a lovely cat, and I enjoy taking care of my friends’ puppies short or long terms. Taking them to long walks is my favorite part! I work on a flexible schedule, so I’m available on most weekday mornings or afternoons. I’d be ou-of-town on some weekends so pls let me know what’s your schedule like if pup needs walks on weekends! I have leashes (non-retractable) for small and medium dogs. I’m confident keeping pups of these sizes safe from traffic / other animals all the time. It’ll definitely be a plus if your pup know some commands!

“We can’t speak highly enough about Linh as she was very caring, punctual and responsible with our dog. She’s extremely kind and pleasant to work with as well. We highly recommend her and look forward to her future walks!”

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.

“Devon communicated well and was interested when I explained my dog's idiosyncrasies. She definitely understands animals and has a lot of experience.”

“Booked Nathalia for a last minute dog walk. She arrived on time and most importantly the dogs loved her. Will definitely use Nathalia in the future.”

“My dog, Declan is so much happier when I come home now that he gets a walk while I'm gone. Kenzie is so good with him and he is always so excited when Kenzie comes in. Kenzie sends regular updates and pictures of how my pup is doing and is very responsive. Highly recommend Kenzie if you need a wonderful dog walker!”

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. Over the summer, I work at my internships in animal care for much of the work day, but that leaves afternoons, evenings, and early mornings for me to check in on your pets and give any care they need (breakfast/dinner, walks, baths, etc.). Over the school year, I will have more hours available to fit in more time with your pets (i.e. walking and bathing/grooming, more playtime, etc.). 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.).

About: I love animals and enjoy the time with furry babies. I am a dog foster parent. I am also a bunny & turtle parent. My schedule is flexible. My schedule is very flexible. I can spend a lot of time with these babies. I’m available 11am to 11pm most of the days. I will follow your requirements for your furry baby, please let me know all the essential information that I should be aware of. Please feel free to contact me anytime while I’m with your furry baby.

About: I am a responsible, caring, and dependable dog sitter who understands how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet and respect your home. I have experience helping care for dogs belonging to family and friends, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and following their regular routines. I take time to understand each dog’s personality, energy level, habits, and individual needs. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner and pay close attention to safety during walks, meals, and time inside the home. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, organized, punctual, and attentive to detail. I provide regular photos and updates so owners can feel comfortable and informed while their dog is in my care. My goal is to offer warm, reliable, and personalized care while helping every dog feel safe and comfortable. I am currently available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in Wayland, MA and nearby areas. My schedule allows me to provide dependable morning, midday, and afternoon care, depending on the client’s location and the pet’s routine. I value punctuality and clear communication, and I carefully manage my calendar so every pet receives the time and attention they need. I provide care in the client’s home and always respect the dog’s established routine and the owner’s instructions. Before each booking, I make sure I understand feeding schedules, walking habits, temperament, medical needs, emergency contacts, and any situations that should be avoided. I carefully check doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes, and I send regular photos and updates so owners feel informed and confident while their dog is in my care.

“Was able to accommodate me last minute and was punctual and thoughtful. Thank you!”

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. * New Dog Trial Stay: For new dogs, I recommend starting with a one-night stay so we can get to know each other, understand their routine and needs, and make sure they’re comfortable before booking a longer stay in the future. 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: Hello! My name is Yana, and I've had the pleasure of sharing my home with furry friends for more than ten years. This has nurtured in me a deep bond and understanding with animals. When you're away, I'll dedicate my undivided attention to your precious pets, ensuring they stick to their routine of proper care and love! I'm at ease caring for dogs of all sizes, and I'm experienced in handling those with special dietary needs or food-related sensitivities. Playing fetch, cozy snuggles, and gentle petting are some of the ways I ensure they feel cherished and attended to. Your trust in me to keep your beloved animals safe and content is sincerely appreciated. Whether it's dog walking or pet sitting, I’m here to be a friend to your furry baby! My work schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide pet care throughout the day. I schedule my dog walks and drop-in visits around my client appointments, so I can offer dependable care during mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on availability. Whether your pet needs a midday walk while you're at work or care while you're away, I'll always communicate clearly and make sure they receive attentive, reliable care. I believe every pet is happiest when their routine is respected. In my client's home, I follow each pet's normal schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medications (if needed and instructed), and plenty of affection. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, energy level, and preferences so they feel comfortable and secure while you're away. During walks, I prioritize safety, positive reinforcement, and making sure your dog gets the exercise and enrichment they need. For cats and other pets, I provide attentive care, companionship, litter box or habitat maintenance, and ensure they have a clean, comfortable environment. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, so I communicate clearly, send regular photo updates, and treat every home with the same respect and care I would my own. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for.

About: I have had pets all of my life and adore animals :) I know firsthand how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pet with a stranger. Therefore, my mission is to provide reliable care that leaves you (and your pet) feeling at ease! I have experience taking care of my own dog and neighbor’s dogs. I will tend to your pets needs efficiently and with care! I am available most days besides Wednesdays. I work from home, so I will mostly be located in the Sudbury area. Feel free to check out my calendar for detailed availability! I keep pets in environments that they feel comfortable in: their routine is priority. Whether they like being let out in the yard, or taken on leash for walks, that’s what we will do!

“Brenda’s super friendly approach with our puppy in their very first meeting put us at ease about having her walk him. She was also shared her own experience with dog walkers, which we found to be of great value. Lastly, Brenda’s scheduling flexibility has proven to be a great asset in our arrangement. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who asks.”

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.

“Kate has been walking our Vizsla and he’s so happy!! She’s always on time, takes him for a fantastic walk and gives him the love he deserves so much! She’s very competent, professional and George immediately connected with her.”
