Dog Walkers in West Medford, MA

“Angela has been a lifesaver. She was quick to respond when we needed a last minute, recurring walker and worked around our hectic schedule for a meet and greet. Our two labs absolutely love her and look forward to their morning walks. She’s communicative and considerate and I also look forward to seeing her in the mornings as she has a great personality! She’s a pleasure to work with and we are lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”

“Our dog can be a bit much with leash reactivity and new changes. We are very pleased with how Kaylor has dealt with Buddy and it seems to be going well. Super grateful for the willingness to work with Buddy!”

“Shawn has helped me a number of times take care of my golden retriever and has been a real lifesaver. She is experienced, reliable, clearly cared about my dogs wellbeing and was also a great communicator. She took my dog April for multiple long walks and also figured out how to safely get her some running exercise on a long line. Would definitely recommend Shawn!”

About: My family has had a few dogs throughout my life, each unique and special in their own ways. From a highly energetic and lovable goofball of an Australian Shepherd, to a social Cocker Spaniel whose main focuses are food, making new human friends, and keeping his little sister in line. All the dogs in my life mean more to mean than I can put into words, and I would love to get to care for your fur babies the same way I care for mine! I feel comfortable and confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have experience in potty training, learning to walk on leash, medication administration, and pretty much any other basic care responsibilities you could think of! If this sounds like a good fit, I'd love to connect and care for your canine friend! Additionally, I enjoy running and go for several shorter runs during the week. If you have a dog that would like to jog and wants to join, I would love to bring them along! I am currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of time during the week and on the weekends to take you pets for walks, come by for a drop in visit, and provide them some company while you're away! The safety of your pets and anyone interacting with them are my utmost priority. Before the visit I like to know if there are any other dogs or animals they don’t get along with, if it’s okay for other people to pet them on walks, and if there’s anything they may be scared or wary of. I also undertsand that pets need time to warm up to new people, and that forming connections is on the pet’s timeline. When entering the home of a pet I don't yet know, I wait for them come up to me and ensure that they feel comfortable before petting and interacting with them. If you book with me I will strive to make sure your pet is always feels safe and comfortable!

“Alix is reliable and communicative, and it was clear our dog liked her. Would definitely recommend her to others, and we’ve already re-hired her.”

“Andew showed kindness and conscientiousness and respect to my elder shiba inu, while also holding the boundaries that these basal breeds need. Knowing that Andrew was walking Jaxson gave me the peace of mind to do the work in the world I am called to do. Gratitude.”

“I could not recommend Hillary enough! She is kind, patient, communicative and takes the best photos of the best adventures 🥰 She is the perfect choice for someone to trust with your pet!”

“So grateful for Caitlin! I work from home and was nervous about hiring a dog walker when I recently had to be in the office for a multi-day event. Caitlin took great care of my dog Summer and walked her for the full 30 min (sometimes a bit more!) I really appreciate trustworthy folks and it's a bonus that Summer seemed to really like Caitlin too.”

About: I have taken care of my parent's dog since she was a puppy. I trained her to do basic and complex commands. I love spending time with dogs, discovering their personalities and what makes them special! I am working part time, and have plenty of time to take care of your dogs! Please feel free to reach out with any scheduling questions, and I am sure we can figure something out. My current apartment does not allow pets, so unfortunately I cannot do overnight board in my current home. However, I am great at walks and general day care.

About: I’m a teacher off for the summer looking to fill some of my free time with pet care. I'm a dog lover and am very active, looking forward to long walks and jogs with your dog. I have had pets of my own for many years but currently do not have any and would love to care for someone else's like my own. My schedule at the moment is wide open and I’m happy to help anytime of the day/days of the week! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet. I am comfortable caring for pets in clients home. I do not bring pets to my own home due to my partner’s allergies. Most comfortable with walks outside the home.

About: I grew up with dogs (mostly German shepherds, but also some mixed breeds) and had a cocker spaniel rescue from middle school into college. While I am a cat parent now, I still make fast friends with all of my friends' dogs and love to meet new fur friends when out on a walk (with permission, of course), but also understand and respect if the doggo needs some space. I would be great if your dog just needs someone to drop in for a check up, have a friendly face for companionship and scritches, and go on their daily walks. My schedule during the summer is fairly flexible right now, and I'm open to working with owners to identify a plan that works for them. For each case, I would like to do a meet & greet where I will note down specific preferences for your dog or cat in their home environment to minimize changes to the routine that they are used to. I grew up with different dog breeds and now have a cat with chronic medical issues, so I am sensitive to their needs in providing the care and companionship that works for them while you're away.

About: I have been dog walking since I was 12 years old! I’ve always loved animals and taking care of pets. Right before I turned 13 my parents adopted a dog and he has been my favorite companion ever since! I am a student, so I have a somewhat flexible schedule. Weekends are pretty open for me, as well as some afternoons and evenings on the weekdays. I am happy to take care of your pet however you see fits! In the past, I’ve stayed overnight at pet owners homes. I am not able to host any pets where I live.

“Victoria is so great! We have moved quite a bit and the number one task for us is to find a dog walker who Kona loves! Everyday Victoria comes, we come home to the happiest pup with fresh water and a nice report card!”

About: We’ve always had all sorts of animals in our homes, but have a special affection for dogs. Two adults and two teenage boys are here to play, walk and care for your dogs! We work remotely, so we are always available unless we leave town for vacation.Boys are home every day at 3PM, Deb works remote half the time, and Ben is fully remote. We have a fenced in yard and two friendly Jack Russell terriers. Dogs are welcome where they are comfortable—floor, couch, bed, crate. We love going on walks by the Mystic River or in the Fells.

About: I have had pets my entire life since I was a child and I absolutely adore them! I consider myself a highly sensitive person and that helps me stay attuned both to humans and pets! I have a flexible work from home job and because of that pet sitting fits smoothly with my daily and weekly routine. I can adjust as needed! I feed them on time, play with them during play hours and make sure that they feel safe and take care of. I would make sure to read the pet body language and make sure to give them enough space when they’re shy or not ready to interact!

“Allie was super communicative, asked great questions, and was quickly able to read our puppy’s cues! She spent intentional time making sure that Scout was well cared for during each visit. We will definitely book with her again!”
