Dog Walking West Boylston

About: Animals have always been part of my life. I’ve raised five dogs from puppyhood and have worked with many breeds, ages, and personalities. I also have experience caring for cats, reptiles, and small mammals, making me a reliable choice for families with diverse pets who need patient, knowledgeable support. I offer fully open availability, providing flexible, reliable care whenever your pets need support. My schedule is built around consistency and convenience for pet parents, and every visit reflects my commitment to animal welfare. As I grow my business, I’m also working toward my long‑term dream of opening a multi‑species rescue to help even more animals thrive. I care for pets in the way that keeps them happiest and most comfortable. In your home, I follow your routines exactly—feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, medication, and any house rules your pet already knows—so their day feels familiar and stress‑free. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, supervised environment with structured potty breaks, cozy rest areas, and plenty of attention. Whether it’s walks, drop‑ins, boarding, or overnights, I make sure every pet gets individualized care, consistent communication, and a calm, loving experience.

“Annie is a fantastic and reliable dog walker! Our pup is a strong, active dog and it’s great to know she gets good exercise with every walk. Thank you Annie!”

“I have booked Julia for countless walks because she takes excellent care of my puppy, ZuZu! She has always gone the extra mile to communicate with me and give ZuZu all the exercise and attention she needs. Zuzu is a very energetic dog and can be challenging to walk at times, but Julia has always been on top of doing what works best for her to get her energy out! She always sends plenty of pictures and makes sure ZuZu has what she needs before she leaves. She is awesome with having a flexible schedule and responding super quick to my last minute requests and schedule changes. I will absolutely keep using her to care for my girl!”

“Ben has been great with our new puppy! He’s very patient, and was able to take the time to get our puppy to warm up to him. He’s also very punctual and professional. We’ll defiantly be using Ben in the future!”

Jon A.

“Louca worked wonders for us and our super reactive miniature dachshund. His patience, knowledge, and professional and positive attitude were a huge relief after searching for and failing to find someone to look after our dog when we were away for short periods. Louca has given us so much hope for our little puppy’s future and we look forward to working with him again! Thank you Louca !!”

Jessica M.

“John, has come in clutch a number of times when we’ve had last minute plans (which is often for my family). He provides great updates and images that allow us to see how well he’s taking care of Marley!”

Joel L.

“Jeffrey is great with our dog Apollo! He’s always very punctual and has a great walk with our very excited German Shepherd. Definitely would recommend!”

Kayla O.

“First walk with my pup. Kaylee was easy to communicate with and kept me updated before and after her walk. Will continue to request for upcoming walks amd would recommend to others.”

About: Since I was 4, I've been caring for all kinds of animals, especially dogs. At one time as a kid, we had 4 Great Danes! I've had mixed breeds and purebreds, athletes and couch potatoes, puppies, seniors, and special needs. I've also trained them although I've never been certified. Something common that friends say after their dog has spent a week or more with me is "how come my dog is now better behaved?" Your neighborhood or mine, the local park, the dog park, or on dog friendly trails. One dog or many. Having had all kinds of pets, including a 23 year old cat who required daily fluids and Miralax because of kidney failure and old cat dry colon, a dog that suffered seizures, and others. I even had a big 7 pound black and white adult rabbit that I found dumped in the state forest; she was litter box trained, had the run of the house, used the big dog crate as her private home, and would take turns playing chasing the 93 pound dog. I've just always seemed to understand them and vice versa. I even enjoy caring for dogs that are hyper! Just let me know first in case I've got low energy dogs with me. I work remotely, set my schedule, and nothing makes me happier that being with and doing things with dogs. Dog park? Trails? Sure, if your beast is up for it. Play dates? Why not! Up for playing with my dog who is vaccinated for probably everything and wants to chase and be chased? Not a problem. Special needs or a senior? Just let me know. I have a fenced yard and a happy, boisterous 6 year old, 57 pound dog who adjusts his play style to what other dogs like. If he's too much for your dog, he takes correction from them, no problem, or I can put them in different places. He even lets little dogs beat him up without protest and if your dog likes rough play, he'll accomodate. He's happy and loves people and dogs. He has zero resource guarding issues; if your's does, he'll give them space.

About: I’ve had 8 dogs throughout my life and can take care of all dogs from puppies to senior dogs. Neighbors, family, and friends have trusted me to take care of their dogs, cats, and even bunnies. I’m currently a collegiate athlete at Clark University, but will try my best to make time for your pups. Sundays are my main days able to provide services I know special tricks to get dogs to eat medicine if they need it as I’ve had many pups in need of medicine. I care for pets with lots of pets, a structured schedule, and exercise.

“This is my first Rover experience and Katie has been AMAZING!!! She has made me feel extremely comfortable with this process! We can’t wait to use her next week!”

“Thank you so much!!”

“Jovietthe cared for my dog and cats while I was away and did a wonderful job. She followed all my instructions and my pets were all happy when I came home.”

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs since I was young. Responsible, patient, and attentive, I love connecting with dogs beyond the bare minimum, giving them real love and attention. I am a full time student, my classes end around noon time, the latest being 1:45 on Fridays. I have a part time job as well, but my work schedule is very flexible as I can pick the days I work in advance. My home is a safe and welcoming space for dogs. I have a large, fenced backyard where they can play and explore. I live with my parents, which just means even more love for the future pups! I have a small Chihuahua who mostly keeps to herself, but if any issues arise, there’s enough space in the house to separate them. If your dog needs a crate, I can accommodate for that too!

“Alexandra was great! She responded quickly for availability and kept me updated frequently. Zeus loved her as well and he can be tricky sometimes! I would definitely book a walk with her again.”

Emilia S.

“Daniela was such a pleasure walking our Great Pyrenees, Colby!!! He gets SO excited to see her and would come back in such a good mood. She provided excellent updates each walk and always on time and highly communicative. HIGHLY recommend Daniela!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for many years, I am a huge animal lover. For neighbors, friends, family, all dogs and cats big and small I have so much love for them all. I work part time as a CNA, I only work a few days a week so I am available to watch your pups! I work every other weekend so i’d be available for boarding on my off weekends. I have a large yard and my dog gets taken out on a leash, I have a puppy so I am familiar with crate training and house training.

About: My whole life as long as I remember I was the biggest pet lover. I had my own pets and I’ve taken care and walked the dogs of my neighborhood. I just love them. I work part time, which gives me a lot of time to do my favorite thing: pet sitting!!! I work part time and have a lot of time for my favorite hobby which is caring for these lovely creatures. I have a fenced in yard and I love walking in the woods with the doggies. I have a fenced in yard and I walk the dogs three times a day. My 2 lovely dogs will keep your dogs company. I will make sure they are spoiled.

About: I grew up with dogs in the house and helped my family raised a service dog in high school, which is when we fell in love with Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs and now own twelve of them! Between caring for our dogs and working in pet care for ten years I am very confident with dogs of all sizes, ages and have experience with medically complex dogs as well as reactive dogs (whether fear, overexcitement or other reasons) and am happy to work with my clients to provide the best care for all dogs! Pet care is my full time job so I am able to be very flexible to fit my clients needs. I arrange my walking schedules to allow time for dropping in if I have any sittings booked, so everyone has the time they need from me while in my care. While caring for a pet in their home I make sure to ask the owners for any and all info on the dog I may need, and learn their pets schedule so I can keep their routine as close to normal as possible while they're in my care

About: We’ve always had pets at our house and cousins’ houses growing up, and as you’ve probably seen in my pictures, I always love being around animals! I’m starting a new position in a few months, and since I love animals, I thought that pet-sitting would be the perfect thing to do in the meantime! It is definitely important to make sure that the pets are taken outside often to go to the bathroom and move around with fresh air. It’s also important to read the body language of the pet- some pets need more exercise than others.
