Walkin N Waggin Petcare Services

Garrett is AMAZING. I was very nervous about starting a full-​time job because I had an 8 mo. old puppy (at the time). I’ve been using Garrett for 2 ½ months now and I’ve never trusted anyone more with my little pup! He is incredibly reliable, considerate, and accommodating. I’ve switched plans on him so many times (and thrown a move in there) and he always finds a way to make it work. My puppy has been sick a couple times but I could leave for work knowing she was in good hands. In those cases he came to check on her multiple times, and even brought her to his apt to watch over her for a few hours… all for no extra charge! He has been a huge life-​saver and I recommend him to literally every person I run into who has a dog. Garrett is one of a kind — you don’t find many people like him these days.

I’m so excited to be the first one to review Walkin’ N Waggin’.
I was introduced to Garrett through my brother and sister-​in-​law, who use him as a dog-​walker over in Newton.
I was in a crunch and needed someone to look after my cats.
As we all know, our pets are like our children, and I couldn’t have just anyone take on this important responsibility. But, since Garrett came highly recommended from a reliable source, I hired him sight-​unseen and have been absolutely thrilled with the results.
I can’t speak personally for Garrett’s dog skills, though I know that my dog-​niece Emmy adores him, and she’s a timid girl.
For cats, there are a few important things that I wanted in particular with a pet-​sitter.
I wanted someone who would not only feed them and change the litter box, but also woud would pet them and play with them for a while. I wanted someone who would take pictures and send them to me every day to show me that all was well. I wanted someone who was at my beck and call, in case I was worried or suddenly needed someone to go over in case I needed to stay an extra day. I wanted someone who loved animals and someone who was loved by animals. Finally, I wanted someone I could trust to enter my home and keep watch while I was away.
Garrett does all of these things. He never failed to text me back almost immediately when I reached out to him. He went so far as to schedule his trips to my house at a time when, if necessary, he could bring a kitty to the vet. He took pictures and sent them to me of the kitties happy and chasing their laser. On top of all of this, he brought in my mail, watered my house plants, and kept an eye on things.
Garrett is a pleasure to work with, affordable and trustworthy. He is a gem and I’m so glad to have found him. I’d recommend him for any pet job.
