  • Boston (Allston, Back Bay, Brighton, Chinatown, Charlestown, Dorchester, Downtown Boston, East Boston, Jamaica Plain, North End, South Boston, South End, Roslindale, West Roxbury) & and it’s surrounding areas (Braintree, Brookline, Cambridge, Dedham, Newton, Milton, Quincy, Somerville)

  • Sessions may be held in the conference room of my building, inside your home, at a local park or area, or at a local dog-friendly store.

  • Fees may be added to the services in the following instances:

    1) If there is no street parking available at your residence, the dog owner will be responsible for parking fees.

    2) If you live outside of serviced areas, a travel fee may be applied.

  • No, I do not offer boarding. My personal dog does not love sharing his space with unknown dogs and it is my job to advocate for him.

  • No, I do not offer daily walks. I work full time as a School Counselor September through June. I offer structured walks as a training service nights and weekends, however, I have more flexibility during the summer months!

    I have been using South Paw Boston for my own personal dog walking for the last 2 years and I couldn’t be happier with John’s service!
