Pet care in Back Bay
Local handlers who know Back Bay.
Just west of Downtown, Back Bay is known as Boston's most scenic neighborhood. With the Convention Center and Prudential Center nearby, leave your pup with us and take a day for yourself.
Back Bay is home to one of the most scenic walking routes in Boston: the Charles River Esplanade. Beginning near the Longfellow Bridge alongside the bike path, it is a great place for dogs to get comfortable around walkers, runners, bikes, children, geese, ducks, other dogs and even State Troopers on horseback. The neighborhood also offers the Commonwealth Ave Mall and iconic routes along Newbury, Beacon and Boylston St, and our Back Bay pups love the Carleton Court Dog Park after a stroll around Copley Square.

Client reviews
Loved by pet parents near Back Bay.
So friendly and they take such good care of my pitbulls. I live near Seaport Boston and was so happy to find this dog walking company. Sometimes my dogs attend the play groups and they love it!
They are the only pet service around that treats our four legged friends as we do, with the exemplary care. I have complete confidence in the care my dog is given. A truly stress free experience for you and your animal.
My girlfriend works as a nurse and her schedule changes weekly. BBDW has always been flexible and worked around our needs, adjusting to our schedule at a day's notice sometimes. Our dog absolutely loves him.
His work has far surpassed your average dog walker. He has provided essential training that has allowed me as a new owner to communicate clearly with my dog.
From overnights to play dates to walks, this service has made it so easy to keep up with our dog's care, I don't know how we would do it without them! Look no further than BBDW!
BBDW has always been flexible and worked around our needs. Experienced, knowledgeable, dependable and most importantly passionate about his job. We're extremely happy and recommend their services to all of our friends!
