“David is great with dogs and an excellent caregiver. He is reliable, professional and communicative.”


About: Hi, I’m Emilio! I’m a dependable and caring dog walker who loves spending time with pups/cats of all kinds. Rain, shine, or snow, I show up with a smile, ready to give your dog/cat the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in visit, I’m here to make sure your pet stays happy, active, and loved while you’re away. I also offer drop-in visits for cats! With four years of personal experience as a cat owner, I understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or keeping the litter box fresh, I’ll make sure your cat feels safe and cared for in their own space. Safety, consistency, and kindness are at the heart of every visit. Let’s get those tails wagging and cats content! 🐶🐈💙 I work part-time as a Certified Nursing Assistant at Lahey Hospital, which gives me plenty of time during the day to care for pets. Dog walking fits naturally into my routine and helps me stay active and grounded. It’s a meaningful balance to my caregiving work at the hospital, as I truly enjoy spending time with pets. 😊 I don’t have a pet right now, but I always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I make sure pets feel safe, stick to their routine, and keep the environment clean.

“I had a great experience with Candi! She was attentive, reliable, and very nice. My pets were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. I highly recommend her!”

You know gotta watch their weight, no table food.

About: As a former mail carrier and current professional dog walker and sitter for 4 years, I am very used to walking in all kinds of weather. I have an eighty pound golden retriever lab mix at home who I love taking for walks. My first job as a kid was walking dogs in my neighborhood, and now I am living my dream of doing this as an adult. I also have previous experience watching my friend's dogs, one of whom was elderly and no longer had the use of her hind legs. Over the past few years, I have gained experience with reactive dogs; because I only walk one dog at a time, I can give each dog all the attention they need to be safe and happy. I am a very conscientious person and your dog's health and safety are my main focus. If you hire me, I promise I will do everything I need to do to make sure your pup is comfortable, safe, and happy. I am looking to service Peabody and its surrounding areas. Currently, dog walking and sitting is my main job. I am still in school part time, but not during the summer time, so my availability is a little bit more flexible. The sitting jobs that I have had so far are going back and forth to the client's house three times a day to feed and walk the dogs, and give them some love. Depending on individual circumstances, I will stay overnight if both myself and the client are comfortable with that arrangement.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. I recently lost my 2 year old rescue Luna to cancer and miss the companionship of animals. I love taking long walks and bringing dogs on adventures where they can sniff to their hearts content. In my home, your dog will treated like family. Snuggles on the couch, tug of war, belly rubs and endless ear scratches are part of the package. I am patient and loving to all the animals I care for. If your pet has a special diet or needs, I'm more than happy to accommodate them. I am comfortable with large dog breeds - drool is no problem! Senior dogs are welcome to lounge in the sun on the floor or couch of my living room or go for car rides if that is what they love. I truly hope to have the opportunity to get to know you and your pet. I am a Special Education teacher currently. I'm available for afternoon or weekend walks, overnight care and vacation sitting - whatever your needs. During school vacations I am available to either board your pet with me or stay in your home if you decide to travel. I'm also available for walks or pee breaks anytime during school vacations. In my home dogs are welcome anywhere in my home. My living room is a wall of windows overlooking the woods. It is a one story house with a finished basement that I block off at the top of the stairs. You dog is welcome to lounge on a bed and check for squirrels out the window or curl up on the couch with me. If you prefer your dog to be crated, I have space for a crate as well. I have a large yard with a fenced in garden for potty breaks or to sniff around. I also have a dog run if that fits your needs. While on the run, I'll keep an eye on your pet at all times (my living room is all windows).

“Anna was very easy to work with. She was responsive and prompt with updates while checking in on our cats for a week. I would definitely use her services again.”


“Lucy was great with our boys. She provided excellent feedback and was very communicative. We felt they were in good hands and look forward to working with her again.”


About: I grew up with a sweet black lab who taught me just how special the bond between people and pets can be. Since graduating college, I’ve been dog sitting and walking for pups around my town, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. What sets me apart is my calm, caring approach and genuine love for animals. I make it a priority to learn each dog’s routine and preferences so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy—whether we’re on a walk, snuggling on the couch, or sticking to a medication schedule. I have experience with: Senior dogs who need a slower pace and a little extra TLC Energetic dogs who need structured walks and play Basic training reinforcement (sit, stay, leash manners) I'm dependable, communicative, and always ready to treat your dog like family! I’m currently taking online graduate courses at Gordon College, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the week. Since I can work from home and set my own hours, I’m able to dedicate time during the day for walks, drop-ins, or extended stays—whatever your pet needs. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or overnight care, I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for while you’re away. I currently live with my parents, so I only offer pet care in my clients’ homes. This allows your pet to stay in their familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and keeps them feeling safe and comfortable. I always follow any house instructions you provide—whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, or special care details—and I do my best to keep everything just the way you left it. I’m respectful of your space, attentive to your pet’s needs, and committed to keeping them happy, healthy, and secure while you're away.

About: Every animal is unique, and I pride myself on understanding your pet's particular set of wants and needs and meeting them where they're at. If your pup is the type that jumps up off the couch to greet every person who walks in the door, I'll return that energy. If, like the Jack Russell I grew up with, they mostly want someone to feed them, walk them, and give them the occasional pet, I'll tend to their needs while giving them the space they want. And if, like my sister's dog, they're anxious about every new face they see, I'll approach them with the tact and patience they need to be comfortable. I've grown up with and cared for dogs for the past twenty years, and I've loved each and every one of them. I have experience caring for both puppies and seniors, walking large and reactive dogs, and administering meds. I am a full time student with the summer off, so I have a very flexible schedule and am able to attend to a wide variety of needs. Your pet's safety is always my number one priority. I like to have a full written list of their needs so that there is no room for confusion and to ensure I know about any quirks of theirs and/or worries of yours. I tend to send updates on a daily basis, but that can always be adjusted to a schedule that works better for you.

About: I have 3 years of experience walking and pet sitting dogs with company’s and on my own! I work at a doggy daycare in the area and would love to start expanding my experience on my own while i start school. I’ve had amazing experiences and built trust and relationships with lots of people and their pets! My days aren’t regular within the week, depending on what days i’m not at my other job. If i am not I am available after 12. But are also available Saturdays! I would come to your home and meet your dog and go for a short walk! i can bring treats depending on if they have allergies and bags! I always make sure they are comfortable with me and trust me before leaving your home. I usually only walk in the neighborhood but if trusted or dog needs to be relocated for the walk I can bring them in my car to go somewhere fun! I also always make sure to refill the water bowl, or feed breakfast/dinner when done with walk if you are not home, and crate them if needed.

About: I've been taking care of friend's and family's pets for over 10 years, whether it be long or short term. I love bonding with animals and ensuring that they feel safe and loved, and that they get the care that they need. I work full time in retail, but have early mornings and evenings available. I am available on the weekends to take care of your pet as well. I have a fenced in yard and a house with plenty of space for your pet to roam freely while still being closely monitored and safe.

About: I’ve had two dogs in my life and often dog sit for a few families. My current dog is a golden named Watson who is obsessed with me. I’m working part time and looking to find something to fill the rest of my time. It feels natural to spend time with animals as I’ve grown up with animals mostly cats but also dogs. I’m willing to do whatever is most comfortable and necessary. I am comfortable following directions or taking the lead whatever works best for you I’m happy to do

About: I’ve grown up with cats my entire life. I have loved animals and wanted to work with them for as long as I can remember. I now have 3 cats and a dog at home and I absolutely adore my fur babies. I’m currently out of work so I have all the time in the world to spend with your beloved pets!! My four children would be ecstatic to have furry friends visit. I have a nice wooded trail I can take your dogs for a walk. I have gates inside where I can keep animals separated if needed.

About: Growing up, we always had dogs and cats, gerbils and fish. I learned the responsibility of having a pet at a very young age. I, also, realize that our pets are sometimes closer to us than our own family. Pets are sources of unconditional love and stress relief. As a pet sitter and a pet owner, my pets and your pets will always receive the best care. I always think about the fact that, when you go away or leave for a period of time, it may be confusing to your pet, since you can't really explain to them that you are coming back. I am cognizant of this fact and offer the most caring and gentle approach to pet care, as your pet may be confused as to where you are. I will make sure their experience is not only fun, but also safe and caring. As a mortgage professional, I am currently working from home, so your dog will well taken care of. As a mom of a 6 year old, I am home all day and night, so your dog will have lots of attention and walks. We have a front yard that is semi-fenced and a back patio that is completely fenced in. I love being outside in nature, so long walks and hiking trails are always on the agenda, if it fits in with your pet needs.

“Phenomenal communication and seemed to genuinely care about my dog's well being while we were away. Would not hesitate working with her again.”


About: I’ve had pets my whole life—everything from dogs and cats to birds and a tortoise—so I’m super comfortable with all kinds of animals. Over the years, I’ve helped walk my neighbors' and friends' pets and even house-sat for them, which has only made me more passionate about caring for animals. As a grad student, I’m looking for a part-time gig that lets me do what I love. I enjoy playtime, walks, and just spending time with fur babies, and I really love getting to know their unique personalities. Every pet is different, so I make sure to adjust my care to fit their needs, whether they’re high-energy puppies or chill senior cats. I’m currently working on writing my thesis, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Since I’m in charge of setting my own hours, I can adjust my availability to fit the needs of your pet. We can definitely chat more about timing and details during a meet and greet to make sure everything works smoothly for both of us! I make sure to send daily updates on your pets, including photos of what we’ve been up to! I love keeping owners in the loop and sharing the fun moments. Whether I’m in your home or my own, I aim to be there as much as possible, spending quality time with your pets, playing, walking, and just hanging out to keep them happy and comfortable.

About: I grew up with golden retrievers and have raise my own dog since she was a rambunctious puppy. I have experience training puppies, high energy dogs, dog and cats needing medication. My work schedule is variable but provides me with at least 4 days a week to walk or pet sit! Please reach out and maybe we can make something work! I have a fenced in yard and one teenage lab retriever to keep your pet company! As my dog is high energy, we spend a lot of time outside. We often run, walk, play fetch and just basking in the sun on nice days!

“Ella once again provided excellent care to our six cats, even giving our eldest a pill twice a day (which can be a challenge). Thanks to Ella, we were able to go away for a week and know that our cats were well taken care of.”


About: I have experience dealing with rescue dogs (like my own) who sometimes need a little extra love. I am good at interpreting animal body language, so I can assure you that your pet’s needs will not be ignored. Right now I’m still in school, so I can only provide services on the weekend. I will have more availability and flexibility in the summer. If your pet is super active, we can go for plenty of adventures and I can play all day. If you have a couch potato or a senior, I am just as fine with chilling out for hours. I have supplies I can bring (toys/treats), but I’ll also use what you have in your home to keep your pet entertained.

Emilio A.
“To whom it may concern, I am a cat owner who also loves dogs, and used to have them in my life growing up. If I were able to continue to have a dog, I would not hesitate to have Emilio be part of his/her life as a walker or caretaker. Emilio is kind, and you are instantly drawn to his gentleness. He exhibits this to all living creatures, and can be trusted to take care of a pet. I hope you will interview this young man and see this for yourself.”

Marissa M.
“I use Marissa for both Dog Walking and Pet sitting and she is always my first call! I have a senior dog named Nahla who is an anxious girl with a love for walks and pets, and Marissa does a great job catering to her needs and making her feel secure. For dog walking, my dog doesn't let just anyone walk her and when she see's Marissa's car pull up she gets so excited, like a kid about to go on a school field trip. I know that when she takes Nahla out for a walk my dog will come back happy and tired. When I need a pet sitter, I always breath a sigh of relief when Marissa is able to watch her and keep her at her house. She takes great care of her and me by sending up photos of Nahla having a good time allowing me to enjoy my trip without being worried about Nahla. 5 Stars, highly recommend!”
