Local handlers who know Downtown.
Boston's Best Dog Walkers has been a trusted pet service in Downtown Boston for many years. We serve countless hotels and residential properties in Downtown, Chinatown and the Theater District, and our walks and playgroups on Boston Common and Beacon Hill are always a blast.
For pups in the Downtown Crossing area there are endless sights, sounds and smells, whether we are strolling Tremont St, Arch St, Milk St or Temple Pl, or walking the pedestrian stretches of Washington St. Boston Common, with its off-leash hours, Frog Pond and many paths, is the perfect place for your dog to take a break during the day with us.

Client reviews
Loved by pet parents near Downtown.
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!
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!
