Dog Walking in Southbridge

“Jackie has been walking our two pups regularly for months now. She is extremely reliable and trustworthy. She always gives us detailed descriptions of the walk and sends the cutest pictures too.”

“I highly recommend having Jane as a dog walker! She is quick to respond to messages and great at communicating. I loved that she sent me pictures of my dog on their walk and kept me updated on how she was doing while I was at work. She was great with my little corgi! Both Poppy and I are looking forward to using Jane for more dog walks to come!”

“We currently have an almost 70lb pitbull mix named Dutchess. She is a sweetheart, snuggle dog. Unfortunately, due to the bad reputation of pitbulls, if Dutchess so much as barks at someone...they automatically fear her. Being a fearful dog herself, she becomes even more defensive. If you don't trust me, why should I even trust you? Lila, however, gave Dutchess a chance. Lila took the time to get to know the true Dutchess showing her compassion, patience, and most importantly trust. I truly appreciate Lila giving Dutchess a chance, something most do not give her the luxury of. Dutchess can also pull at times but with some bribery of treats, it seems Lila is able to manage well. You can tell Lila has a love for animals, you can hear it when she talks about her pets and the other animals she cares for. I would recommend Lila to any others who are in need of someone to take care of their beloved fuzzy, or possibly non fuzzy, family members.”

“I have known William for 35 years. He and his wife Mary are our dearest friends. Through the years we have observed William and Mary care for numerous animals of their own, as well as foster many along the way. William has pet sit all of our animals as well. He has come to our home during our extended vacations and provided the utmost of care. He is very reliable and trustworthy and I know no one I would trust in our home alone more. Our pets have remained happy and healthy every time we have gone away. William always spends a good deal of time giving affection to our pets as well as spending time playing with them during his care. Any one who uses William as a pet sitter will be thrilled to have him. Sincerely, Janice”

“Sabrina has been great with Max; she has taken him on several walks and he is always excited to see her. You can tell she really cares about your pets as if they were her own.”

“Greter is an amazing, caring animal lover. She fosters for our rescue and is one of our best fosters! She is very reliable and I couldn't think of a better person to trust your animals with! Whenever we have a dog without placement, she is the first one to step up and is always willing to take an extra. Rescue work can be stressful, but having Greter as a foster makes it a little easier. Just knowing that the dogs in her care are taken care of and loved by a knowledgeable, reputable person, makes my job as a foster coordinator go a lot smoother. If you are looking for a dog sitter, I highly recommend Greter to care for your furbabies! I promise you won't be disappointed!”

About: I grew up with a sense of love and respect for all animals. I’ve had dogs as long as I can remember! I have taken care of many animals for friends and family while they were away! I’ve also had professional experience while caring for animals at a pet resort. We would board dogs and also have daily day care pups! I would feed and let the animals out while also administering any medicines that were needed. I was able to set up daycare play groups to enjoy time in the yard and socialize! I am available throughout the week, I’m always around for a great time with the pups! As I get more active in my personal life walking dogs and playing with animals is great physically and mentally! I have crate trained previous pups. While taking care of my dogs or anyone else’s the best time is when we can have fun but still be safe.

“It was too wet/rainy outside to walk Gidget, but I kept the appointment time anyway. I wanted to start once a week walks for Gidget to get used to seeing Katie around before house sitting for us. Hubby said that she took the time to get to know her and vice versa. Very pleased with Katie.”

“Jean is a very loving and caring pet owner. She has two dogs of her own and lots of time on her hands she enjoys being outdoors”

About: I have owned dogs all my life. Same with cats. I have worked with horses as well! I am a manager at a dog boarding facility. I have been a manager for 5 1/2 years. I have worked with all breeds, as well as ages and temperments. I am able to clip and dremmel your pets nails, feline or canine! :) I work full time, but when I’m not at work, I’m constantly out taking my own dogs for walks and caring for their needs! I would love to care for your pup like my own! I have 2 extremely friendly dogs to keep your pup company! My dogs love to play, and understand social ques. Even though I live in an apartment, my dogs and I go for daily walks and I’m willing to do that!

About: Dogs have always been my favorite animal since I can remember! I love all breeds and will walk, feed, play with, cuddle & love every pup I am entrusted with. Working with dogs is my dream job and you can be assured that I will be 100% responsible with your pets. After all- they're part of your family! This is what i do for a living, so i have open availability and have the opportunity to be very flexible! I take care of dogs daily and love it I have a big open yard and field, both with a long run for your dogs to be on outside. I can take them for a walk on the property leashed (unless trained off leash) and can also provide a loving and safe home for them while youre away. I have a crate here and beds! And will always be attentive to their wants and needs.

“Mallory and James are excellent! They take such great care of my dogs and send detailed updates so I know exactly how my dogs are doing when I’m away. Both my dogs have been won over by the care and love given by these two.”

About: I have had pets in my life since I was a baby. We have enjoyed a lab, standard poodle and currently a mini cocker spaniel poodle mix. I love getting outside and being active with pets. I am at home with my daughter most of the time and I enjoy doing side hustles like selling vintage clothing online and seeking out antiques. We get outside with our dog, Carl often and would love to get a chance to offer outside time and love to other pets on Rover too! I always approach pets slowly with care and love. They feel our energy big time and have so much to share with us when we give them the chance.

About: Very active, training skills, grooming skills. I have owned dogs pretty much my whole life! I can guarantee satisfaction and that you will want to repeat service. I just bought a house and doggie safety was my top priority, my back yard is fully fenced in with a 8 foot fence. I live in a very quiet area with a good sized back yard. I also have a decent sized home where they will be free to roam around and get comfortable as if they lived there themselves. I want the dogs to feel like this is their home away from home. Hope to hear from you I currently work full time but I work at night, my days are completely free for dog walking and pop in visits for meal time and some stimulation. I have a completely fenced in back yard and two friendly dogs of my own to keep yours company. Our dogs are allowed free range of our home.

“Brittany was fantastic. She’s very reliable and always arrived on time. My dog, Bailey, is very excitable when greeting people or dogs; Brittany took it all in stride and helped me work with Bailey to get her to be calmer. Will definitely call on Brittany again! Bailey loves her!”

“Kyla has watched my dogs last minute over holidays! Super good with my dog Bailey and very kind. She stayed at my house overnight for about a week.”

“Madie is a true dog lover. She has helped me feed, walk and care for my dogs for many years. My fur babies love her.”

“Kate absolutely loves my dogs. She actually loves all animals: from the baby birds stranded in her yard to the puppies and kittens she has fostered over the years. I highly recommend Kate to take care of your fur babies when you can’t. My dogs recommend her too!”

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats and have always loved taking care of them, playing with them, and most importantly, cuddling with them. I am currently a student and generally stuck studying at my house all day and have flexible hours, I will have plenty of time for study breaks to hang out and care for your pet! I live in a house with a large back yard and paved areas for walks. My house does have stairs but I am comfortable carrying the pet as needed (but generally stay on the first floor). I have a 4 month old dachshund puppy named Gus and usually care for my childhood dog, Scooter, as well!

About: I am a huge animal lover with 3+ years of professional experience and a lifetime of personal experience. Growing up, we always had animals in the house. I grew up taking care of bunnies, dogs, cats, and even fish. I loved every minute spent with animals during my childhood and ended up volunteering at a rescue just so I could interact even further with the animals who needed the most help. Because of this, I knew my life could never be complete without animals, so today I personally own 2 dogs and 2 cats myself. On top of that I worked in kennel and boarding facilities for over two years. At the latest one I was in a supervisor position and had a lot more responsibility making sure the 60+ animals in our building were taken care of to the best of my ability. I have experience with walks, playing, medication administration, basic first aid, feeding, and more. I recognize many forms of dog behavior and have experience with animals who have severe anxiety and different levels of aggression. I can read a dog and its body language and know what they need. Taking care of animals is a passion of mine and making sure pet parents feel safe with their animal being with me is a priority. I’m a freelancer making my own schedules so I have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I currently have 1 client that I take care of weekly, but other than that, my schedule is my own and I can be there when you need me. Long walks are usually appreciated by all and I’ll safely take your dog on a walk around the neighborhood any time! I’m big on allergies and proper feeding/medication administration so if that is something you need, I can do it.
