“Michael walked my 3 year old golden retriever, Waffles, for four afternoons. Waffles sometimes pulls on the leash and sometimes not. Michael in his own quiet way was clearly in control and Waffles liked him immediately. I recommend Michael.”


“Ilgin is a true professional and provides such top-notch care for our pup! She is a great communicator and we love working with her. Highly recommend her services!”

“Kaylor did a wonderful job walking our picky corgi! He listened to all our instructions and asked great questions! He is now our weekly dog walker and very reliable!”

“First time introducing our dog Tsuki to Thomas and Emma and it went extremely well! Our dog takes a while to warm up to new people, but it didn’t take long for her to play with them and ask for pets. Tsuki enjoyed a great fetch session with Emma today. I’m sure she will enjoy the next ones as much!”

“Leilani is a wonderful dogwalker. When she came for a meet and greet, Junie liked her right away. Leilani listened carefully to all instructions and was warm and friendly. She walked Junie three times in two days, sending pics and updates each time. She seemed to enjoy her time with Junie, and made sure to give Blue some love too while she was here. I will absolutely request Leilani to care for Junie and Blue in the future.”

“Jacqueline is awesome! So patient with my crazy, energetic pup. Piper absolutely loves when Jacqueline comes for her walks and waits for her to return when she leaves!”

About: Dog mom to a senior 12 year-old Labrador Retriever I raised from when she was a puppy. Comfortable with nature walks, swimming, high-energy activities or just a walk around the neighborhood if that is what you would like :) Taking some time off before starting med school in August, so I am very flexible on days of the week/times that work for you and your pet At home, I have a fenced in-yard and one senior dog. When she’s not sleeping, I keep her busy with enriching activities and lots of outside time :)
“Dakota was so great with my pup! She took care of my pup’s daily walks for a week on short notice, asked thoughtful follow up Q’s and gladly helped with additional tasks. Definitely book her! 10/10 :)”

“Rachel was a huge help when I was out of town for the weekend, walking and feeding my girl who has some behavioral issues. She was communicative, kind, and most of all - great with my pup! Thanks for everything and will definitely book again!”

“Our dog just loved William. We also liked him right away. We scheduled him to walk our dog for 2 days when a relative was housesitting. She reported that William had a great rapport with our dog who was always happy to see him (and he does not have a good rapport with all humans; William is one of his favorites.”

“Allison is amazing! Shamus can be iffy with new people but loves her so much. She is timely and most importantly so great with animals. I am so grateful to have someone like Allison watch my baby!”

“Kauai is the best! She took very good care of my 10year old black lab while I’ve been out of the country. Her communication is the best and she was very punctual. I trusted her with my key to my place and she did great! She showed Athena so much love and took her on great walk. Best dog sitter around!”

About: Growing up my home had all kinds of pets from bunnies to fish, but most importantly dogs and cats! I’ve grown up with various dog breeds from small to big. I’ve also helped care for dogs with anxiety, handled dogs with behavioral issues and familiar with walking large dogs. I’ve handled puppies and smaller breeds as well with bottle feeding and medication. I currently work for a dog toy company focused on making dogs happy! I often foster and volunteer when I can at local shelters. My love of animals goes beyond pets to fueling my mission to care for pets/rescues. I’m a graduate from Boston University currently here for the summer. I’m a social media intern for a small dog toy brand and work remote so I’m flexible with my time and hope to fill my free time by caring for pets! I’m openly available and ready at the whim to help in case you need a hand spontaneously! As a pet owner, I would treat all pets as my top priority just as I would for my own fur babies. I’ll be sure to send detailed updates, communicate thoroughly and be as helpful as possible to clients that could use an extra hand with their pets.
“Mary Kate walked my dog Rosita 8 times last week. She was extremely flexible, communicative, reliable and updated me thru the walks. I could tell my doggie was happy during her care. Planning on have as a long term 😁”

About: What sets me apart is that I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and growing up on a farm only deepened that connection. My family was always the place people turned to when they didn’t know what to do with an animal, so I grew up caring for all kinds of creatures and learning how to be calm, patient, and attentive with them. I even raised a baby bunny and a pigeon, which taught me early on how much care and consistency different animals need. On the farm, I was surrounded by rabbits, chickens, geese, emus, horses, hedgehogs, fish, cats, and dogs, so I learned to adapt to different personalities, routines, and needs. That experience made me comfortable caring for animals in a practical, hands-on way, whether that means feeding, cleaning up, helping them feel safe, or simply giving them the attention they need. I bring a deep love for animals, real-life experience with a wide variety of species, and a genuine sense of responsibility that helps pets feel cared for and secure. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I have a very flexible schedule and the ability to check in on animals whenever needed. That makes it easy for me to keep up with feeding times, litter box care, walks, medication, or just giving pets the attention and consistency they need throughout the day or week. I like being available and responsive, so I can adapt to each pet’s routine rather than forcing them into mine. Whether it’s a quick check-in, a longer visit, or a regular weekly schedule, I’m able to make pet care a dependable part of my day. I care for pets in a way that keeps them comfortable, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions carefully, whether that means feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, playing, or simply spending time with them so they feel calm and cared for. If pets are in my home, I create a clean, quiet, and welcoming environment where they can settle in and feel secure. I pay close attention to their routines, personalities, and any special needs so they get consistent care, plenty of affection, and the level of supervision that works best for them.
About: I’ve spent my whole life around animals — from helping raise dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, and hamsters in my own home, to professionally pet sitting and walking since I was a a young teen. What sets me apart is how naturally and intuitively I connect with animals of all kinds and how deeply I care about making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved when they're with me! I’ve had the unique (& humbling😄) experience of raising & training (crate, potty, leash) a beagle puppy as a 15-yr-old, while also helping my senior golden retriever through end-of-life care. I've also fostered and understand the unique needs of different breeds, temperaments, and how to meet pups where they're at. Whether it’s managing an energetic puppy's exercise routine, gently caring for a senior pet's slower pace, or understanding how to read a timid dog's body language—I’m highly attuned to the needs of every pet & always happy to follow special instructions.😊 My ultimate goal is to make sure your pet feels right at home with me & give you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in the most loving, reliable hands possible! I’m currently focusing full-time on pet care, so I have a very open & flexible schedule! Whether you need a midday walk, overnight care, or last-minute help, I’m available & happy to work around your routine. I genuinely love spending time with animals & I’m excited to fill my days/weeks giving your pet the attention they deserve. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, keep your & their space clean and safe, and send regular updates (& pics). Any specific instructions should be discussed ahead of time, otherwise I’ll ask questions as they arise. I am highly attentive to communications (messaging/calls) when pet sitting for everyone’s sake! I live in a spacious, 3-bed 2-bath, 2nd story sunny apartment with plenty of room to play & relax. I have a lots of cat/dog toys, but happy to use yours if applicable. My neighborhood is very safe and quiet, with quick access to the street for potty breaks & right around the corner from a beautiful park with a fenced-in play area - plus walking distance from 2 fenced dog parks for extra exercise & playtime.
“Susie is so nice to our pup; and extremely reliable! She communicates very effectively and we always get such good pics of our dog on walks! Would highly recommend”

“Ana Beatriz is wonderful and I highly recommend her. My dog instantly loved her and she does a great job at motivating him on walks (sometimes he's a bit lazy). She also communicates very well and provides great updates.”

Alissa is an amazing dog walker. We deeply appreciate how reliable and consistent she is, and how well she manages our dog with reactivity. She always comes on time and has been mindful of the summer heat when going on walks. Alissa has been an absolute asset to our family and we are wicked lucky to have her!!

Anneliese was great with Baxter! Very communicative and friendly. She was available without much notice which was super appreciated. You can tell she has a lot of experience with dogs with different energy levels. Would definitely reach out to her for more help in the future.

Leilani is a wonderful dogwalker. When she came for a meet and greet, Junie liked her right away. Leilani listened carefully to all instructions and was warm and friendly. She walked Junie three times in two days, sending pics and updates each time. She seemed to enjoy her time with Junie, and made sure to give Blue some love too while she was here. I will absolutely request Leilani to care for Junie and Blue in the future.
