Wagging Tails and Trails was founded in 2008 with the goal of providing regular exercise, a safe and controlled social environment, and loving care for your dogs. We are committed to this approach, wholeheartedly. Based on our experience over the last 13 years, we’ve found that pack walks in the woods are a great pathway to a happy, healthy dog.

Our Story

Love at first dog

My family has always cherished and loved the many pets we’ve had over the years, but one of our family dogs proved to be particularly challenging. The solution we found for him went on to become the foundation for the business we have today.

Murphy was a rescue with a big heart, but had more energy than we knew what to do with. Eventually, we discovered that running him off leash on the beach, or in the woods with other dogs, helped “calm him way down.” This regular exercise was a game changer, and as a result, our entire family was able to enjoy him much more! Since then, I’ve found this solution has worked for lots of other dogs!

I officially decided to start a dog walking business in 2008 and eventually expanded to pet sitting for a variety of animals. My family has always been involved from the beginning, including our own children, extended family, and close friends! In 2018, my husband Charlie officially joined me as co-owner.

We continue to love what we do and always look forward to caring for your animals as much as you do!

“I am a dog owner for 20 years, and have used Wagging Tails and Trails since it’s inception. I have had multiple dog walkers and bar none, Wagging Tails and Trails is industry best. Not only have our dogs been eager to go on their daily walks and get their necessary exercise, June and Charlie are their home away from home! They go above and beyond just trail walks - they deeply care about our dogs health and happiness, always lending advice when needed. Not only are they incredibly responsive and accommodating to schedule changes, but incredibly reliable! Can’t say enough about this service - if you are on the South Shore of Massachusetts and looking for a daily dog reprieve, search no longer and call Wagging Tails and Trails today!”

“I’ve been a very happy client of Wagging Tails & Trails for more than 10 years. June is a delight. She takes great care of our four-legged family members and we trust her in our home and with their care implicitly. We look forward to the day when we can travel more frequently and will always rely on WTT in our absence. 5 stars.”

— Kristin L.

“June and Charlie have been taking care of our dog Baldwin for 12 years now. They have been fantastic! From the time he was a puppy to his current age, Baldwin has looked forward to his daily pack walk! Even on days we are home during the week, if there is a pack walk, Baldwin is there. Their vacation care has also been wonderful. June and Charlie have been flexible and reliable, making trips away without Baldwin more enjoyable knowing that he is well cared for. Basically, they treat Baldwin like family and we appreciate the love and attention they have given him all these years.”

— Ed and Trish F.
