Book nowI have been working in the pet care industry for approximately seven years now. I managed a daycare and pet boarding facility for four years and prior to that, I was a Kennel Supervisor for two years with a facility located in New Hampshire. More recently, I have worked as a Vet Tech in a general practice and emergency setting, as well as with a local animal shelter. Working as a Vet Tech has provided me with the opportunity to gain the knowledge and hands on experience of the medical aspect involved in providing care to both canines and felines. I have aspired to work with animals since I was a child and have always had a true passion toward them. I have years of experience in a canine pack environment, as well as one on one with most dog breeds. I also have personal experience, as I have two rescue dogs of my own. I feel this is very important when dealing with a client's pet, as it provides the assurance that their pet is in good hands. In addition to dogs, I have grown up living with cats my whole life. I also have worked with cats in both shelter and veterinary settings. From a ferrel cat to a lap cat, I have experienced both, yet love them all the same! I can confidently medicate any animal if necessary, including pilling to providing insulin injections. My main focus is currently working in the animal care field and furthering my education with my CVT. I absolutely love working in an environment where the focus is caring for animals. My ultimate goal is to own a rescue some day. I feel as though my passion for animals and my prior experience would be a great match for you and your pet! I look forward to hearing from you regarding your furry family members' needs!

Book now“Need Training, Exercise, Snuggles? You need me!”
Hi! My name is Hannah and I’m able to walk, sit, board, and do basic training for dogs in the Boston area. I have two large fur babies of my own and know what it’s like if your dogs don’t get enough exercise for the day! I’ve been walking dogs since I was a kid and I actually work with non domestic animals as my full time gig when I’m not with dogs. You could say animals are my thing! I can’t wait to meet and have fun with your furry loved one!

Book now“Every dog’s different & all deserve the same love!”
I‘ve been a Wag! Walker for year & have been an avid dog lover all my life! I’ve had two very different dogs; my first was a German Shepherd named Tash, a beautiful dog with enormous strength—so rewarding to train and be around. I currently own a finicky, anxious Mini Pinscher who I adore! I know Boston well and have been around animals my entire life, so I know how to earn a dog’s trust before taking control of the leash. I believe in positive reinforcement with dogs, & I think they do too!

Book now“Your pet’s favorite walker, visitor, and trainer!”
I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages and all sizes. I also have experience with puppies as I have fostered a litter myself. My first dog Roxy, was fully blind and deaf when she was 18. Taking care of her has helped me gain experience caring for senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities. I and also a leash grabber so no matter how hard a pup might be to walk I will always have it handled. Now that I finished mg wag! Training exam I am now able to provide training here on the Wag app! I offer leash training, basic puppy, training and more!
