Paws, Play, & Peace of Mind

Responsible pet parenting is about more than food and shelter and is a lifelong commitment to health, enrichment, and love. From cats and dogs to birds, reptiles, and small critters, thoughtful care helps every pet thrive.

Back-to-school changes can be confusing for pets. Help them adjust with gradual departures, enriching activities, and consistent routines. Pawsitive Dawg Walking and Pet Sitting is here to support your pet with midday walks, drop-ins, and fear-free care.

Every August 8th is International Cat Day. It is the purr-fect time to shower your feline friend with love (on their terms, of course) and celebrate the joy, mystery, and wellbeing of our whiskered companions.

Looking for a fun, budget-friendly way to entertain your pet? DIY enrichment toys made from recycled materials are a great way to reduce waste and keep your furry friend happy and mentally engaged while being kind to the planet!

At Pawsitive Dawg, we believe every pet deserves kindness, patience, and respect. Our team is celebrating heartwarming moments where trust bloomed and fear faded. To us pet care is more than visits, it's about building lasting bonds.

Summer heat can be tough on senior pets. At Pawsitive Dawg Walking and Pet Sitting, we give extra care and attention to keep your older companions cool, safe, and happy all season long.

Cats chatter for many reasons. Meows, chirps, purrs, growls, and yowls each paint a different mood. Match the sound to the moment: a breakfast meow, a greeting trill, or a stress yowl. Sudden or nonstop vocalizing can hint at pain or illness, so call your vet if it spikes. Listening to tone, context, and body language lets you meet needs faster and deepen your bond.

Winter can be a challenging time for our furry friends, especially in a place like Massachusetts, where the cold weather can be quite...
