Dog Walking West Roxbury

“Kristen has been phenomenal with our dogs! I was initially nervous about having a dog walker, but Kristen has communicated constantly letting us know everything that happened each day. She sends very detailed updates with lots of cute pictures. She also has gone above and beyond cleaning up when our puppy has accidents and taking both of our dogs on long walks. I feel good knowing that she takes such good care of my babies while I’m away at work.”

“Jana is amazing!! Since one of my dogs lost his sight Jana has gone above and beyond. She treats your fur babies like they are hers. I'd be lost without her service.”

“Tanya did a great job taking our boxer Nala on daily afternoon walks. She was great at communicating any changes in her schedule with me, flexible to meet my needs to care for Nala, and always polite and professional. Thank you so much for you help Tanya! It was comforting knowing that Nala was in good hands while we were away.”

About: As an animal lover of all kinds from Guinea pigs to Great Danes, I have 10 years of experience taking care of my own dog and Guinea pigs as well as two years of experience in Emergency and Intensive Veterinary Care working as a Vet Tech Assistant at one of the higher ranked animal hospitals in Connecticut. I have experience working with dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and guinea pigs of all ages and in all different conditions of health. I am trained in animal CPR, Care (cage cleanings, food, water, etc.), walks every 2-4 hours, and more! So if your pet makes a mess or needs a little extra love - there's nothing I can't handle! I am currently home from college for the summer, so I am free most days of the week Mondays through Fridays, from extremely early mornings to later nights! In my own home, I have a dog and a guinea pig - this means frequent walks, feedings, plenty of play time and love, cage cleanings, enrichment, nail trimmings (only done by self on guinea pig), and baths every so often. I am of course going to treat your pet as I would my own, not just with plenty of love, but if there are any services you would like done while I am with your pet, let me know!

“Elena has been amazing for our family! She is informative, considerate & communicative. We highly recommend her services! Thank you!!!”

“Michelle is wonderful! My dog went suddenly blind a few months ago and has had a hard time adapting, especially on walks which make her nervous. I hired Michelle to walk Gracie twice a week to help her have gentle, positive practice to build her confidence back up. Michelle has been amazing with her. She is so patient with Gracie and in tune with her needs and emotional state. Within a few minutes of meeting her, Gracie was more comfortable walking with Michelle than she is with my husband. After two weeks, Gracie is already noticeably more comfortable on walks. We are so lucky we found Michelle!”

About: Since I can remember, I have always been an animal lover. There has never been a time in my life when I haven't had a dog or was helping to care for a friend or neighbor's dog. In 2003 while living alone in New York City, I adopted an 8-week-old pit bull / Lab mix who I was lucky enough to have in my life for 16 years! Lexie was the most loyal and loving dog, and my experience raising him encouraged me to help other dogs in need. After moving home to Boston in 2004, I started volunteering for the Milton Animal Shelter and MSPCA, walking dogs and helping to clean their cages. I also joined a local pit bull rescue where I would work at various adoption events, conduct home visits for potential adoptees, and speak to elementary classes about dog safety and how to be compassionate towards animals. I also completed a week-long course at the Boston Animal Rescue League to help shelter volunteers get a better understanding about the individual personality and needs of the dogs in their care. In 2014 I started a dog walking business on the side which was very rewarding. I had 3-5 dogs I cared for daily and loved the opportunity to work from home as a graphic designer, and get out of the house and play with so many amazing dogs during the afternoon. My husband and I have two children ages 9 and 7, and the most playful, well-tempered 2-year-old Boston Terrier, Rocket. He gets along with all people and dogs and would love another dog or two to play with during the day. Both my husband and I work from home and can assure you that your pet will have all the love, care, and attention it needs while you're away. Please let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to hearing from you, Andrea My husband and I both work from home Monday through Friday and can assure you that your pet will have all the love, care and attention it needs while you're away. They are welcome to roam our home and we have a fenced in yard which they would always be supervised in. We also have a crate if they ever wanted some alone time.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, learning early how to love, comfort, and understand them in a way that feels natural and genuine - and it’s still a favorite part of my life. I recently lost my dog who gave me unconditional love - we were best buds. Even without a fenced yard, I build safe, supervised outdoor time and regular walks into my day. My routine is flexible, so dogs always get the attention they need. I’ve grown up with dogs and always put safety first, creating a calm, supervised environment where pups can relax and feel completely cared for, even without a fenced yard.”

“Maggie checked in with my dog Freddie to walk him twice a day when I had day-long intensives I had to attend. She was communicative and thoughtful throughout and I trusted Freddie in her care! Thank you, Maggie!”

About: Note that, during the holidays, we will give preference to families requesting a 3+ day stays. Meet and greets are 5-7 min virtual (preferred) or outdoor sessions. We are a very dog-friendly family that have our very own furry friend who might qualify as a ‘Velcro Dog’ and I love it! My little Luna is 6 years old and she would love some company, she will be an excellent host/playmate for your doggie while you are away. As a dog owner, I know how hard is to leave your pet behind while going on vacation so I want you to go worry-free, I will look after your furry family member! Drop off whenever - pick up must be by 6pm. Our day starts early, we will walk him/her at least 3 times/day- 25 mins walks and we do have a fenced in backyard to enjoy and plenty of toys. I have 2 kids, they love their furry sister and know the rules around them very well. If left alone, they will be separated in different rooms. What separate us from a regular kennel setting is that, while at our home, pets are treated like our own, we make sure they are entertained and feel loved.

“Arianna was amazing with Thor and sent us a lot of pictures from their walks! She was on time every day and provided a great report card after each walk. We highly recommend her!”

About: I have experience caring for all types of pets ranging from cats & dogs, to bearded dragons and bunnies! I have a 7 year old cat of my own, and recently moved in with my partner and two senior dachshunds, whom I care for often. I work from home full time and like to take daily walks in an effort to step away from the screen. I am happy to take your pet along for a walk, or stop by for an hour or so for playtime and cuddles! If house sitting multiple nights, I ask for adequate wifi to work remote during the day. I am unable to host in my home due to existing pets. However, I am available to care for your pet in your home to minimize disruption to their routine!

“AMAZING. If you need someone reliable and that goes beyond this is your sitter. She picked up my request last minute. Ann-Marie provide detailed reviews. She took out my girl to parks and different locations. I 100% recommended Ann-Marie and I will be rebooking with her when I need someone to watch Kilala.”

“Gabriel is great with our dog. He has taken time to bond with her so she looks forward to their walks. He is also very communicative and will let you know any problems immediately. He is dedicated and will work to solve any problem.”

“Tiffany was amazing and very patient me and myhard to access triple decker. Walking and dealing with two dogs can be a lot, but Tiffany was a boss and loved them. I would be honored if Tiffany would walk them again.”

Lily E.

“Mengyao is a fantastic walker and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of her services. We booked her on short notice but even still, she was able to accommodate last minute, was highly communicative, and asked thoughtful questions in advance to make sure she was well equipped to handle my two dogs—one of which can be a difficult walker. On top of that, she put me at ease by sending many videos and photos throughout the walk, which was very much appreciated! We will definitely have Mengyao walk our dogs again.”
