Hi there! I am a 23-year-old graduate student/dog lover studying at Boston College. I have always grown up with a dog (or two!) in the house, and I'm a lover of all breeds. I am active and love to be outdoors. I can't wait to meet your furry friend!
Hello, my name is Amanda and I am excited to spend time with your dog(s)! I have two beautiful dogs of my own, one is a 13 year old yellow lab and the other is a 10 year old lab/hound mutt mix. I have had them both since they were puppies. I have also fostered dogs and dog sat and dog walked for many dogs in the past. I love all types of dogs big and small and can't wait to meet yours! Thanks for trusting me with your best friend!
"Ali does a great job. I've used her multiple times and she is very careful and caring! Couldn't ask for a better walker."
West Newton is a small area in the larger city of Newton, Massachusetts. You won’t find any vet clinics here, but Newton itself has four, and the surrounding areas have several. If you’re looking for a puptastic time in West Newton, you can always check out Wellington Park, a local favorite for sporting areas, walking paths, and beautiful greenery. Your leashed pup is welcome!
For some more furrific fun, you’ll want to travel just a few miles outside of West Newton, which is less than a 20-minute drive from Boston! Even on the way to Boston, there’s plenty to do if you stop in places like Allston or Brookline. In Allston, visit Mansfield Street Dog Park, a puptacular outdoor area for running, playing and socializing. In Brookline, you’ll have tons of parks to choose from, like Margaret E. Robinson Playground, a public park with designated off-leash hours.
In Boston, your options are virtually endless! Take a City Water Taxi with your pooch, which lets you travel between Boston piers water-style. Visit Boston Common, the city’s most famous outdoor space, for your dog to play in the off-leash area. And, you can even take Rover on the Freedom Trail for some historic fun.
If you’re looking for dog parks galore, you’ll want to visit Harvard Avenue, a neighborhood in Brookline, MA that’s about nine miles from West Newton. This neighborhood has four parks meant for dogs to have fun in the great outdoors. At Emerson Garden, your pooch can play off his leash during designated hours, from dawn to 9 a.m. Griggs Park and Lotta Bradburn Shick Park also have designated off-leash hours for pups. But all three parks also allow your leashed dog to play any time of day – just clean up after him! Or, head to Brookline Avenue Playground, a designated dog park that’s fully-fenced for off-leash fun.
Just over nine miles from West Newton is the Longwood neighborhood of Brookline, MA. Right on the outskirts of Boston and practically next to Fenway Park, this pawesome neighborhood is one you won’t want to miss.

North Brighton in Brighton, MA is just about 7.7 miles from West Newton. This furrific neighborhood has two incredible parks that your four-legged friend will go mutts for.
