The Emerald Neckleash

We found Alexis through Unilocal and she took care of our cat during our short getaway. She was organized and careful, nice and patient with animals, and just generally a very trustworthy pet caretaker. We are happy we found someone who we know we can rely on whenever we leave town for a few days

Alexis and her team of dog walkers are the best. I have had several dogs and foster dogs — I couldn’t accommodate them without Alexis’ excellent assistance. She is very organized and always makes sure that her team arrives on time and leaves a nice «doggy walk report card» I have used Alexis’ services for about 4 years now and would recommend her to anyone who is serious about the care of their animal.

Emerald Neckleash is amazing. Alexis started with our cockapoo when he was just 3 months old with three times a day «puppy love» walks. She would take him on hikes to the Arboretum and on play dates with her dog. She took great care of him while we were on vacation and would always leave us updated notes about how his walks or play dates went. She was with our dog for 2 years before we moved away and haven’t found anyone as good since! She helped our pup turn into the wonderful dog he is today!

Emerald Neckleash is fantastic. Super reliable, flexible and willing to help out in an emergency or last-​minute situation and, most importantly, great with our dog. The best!

Alexis from Emerald Neckleash is fantastic. Often very accommodating to our two little pups, Rusty & Trouble. She’s very social with our boys and spends ample time with them.
We had an incident with another dog walker that we tried to bring in who ‘broke up’ with us over an email. Didn’t even have the audacity to talk to us face to face about it.
Alexis is top notch and I’d recommend her to any dog owner in the Roslindale/​W Roxbury area.

After a very negative recent experience with a pet sitter here in NY, I
was reflecting back to the time I got service one weekend from Alexis of
Emerald Neckleash when I was living on Cape Cod. Like my entire Cape experience, this one was somewhere in the category of perfection. My regular sitter on the Cape was not going to be available, but she mentioned that she knew a woman who runs a service in Boston and was going to be on the Cape the weekend that I was looking for a sitter. From the moment I met Alexis, the owner, I felt totally at ease with leaving my two beloved kitties in her care. She has this cat/​dog whisperer quality about her. I’m a real worry-​wart when it comes to my babies, and Alexis was totally cool and understanding about my various paranoias. She was constantly available when I called to check up on my girls, sweet yet professional, describing how they played and ate. She picked up on their unique personalities very quickly too, which I found endearing. When I came back, not only were my kitties safe and sound but Alexis left me the sweetest, detailed note describing their «activities.» It was so wonderful.
How I long to have Alexis here in NYC when I go away. For now, she’s still in Boston and her clients there should feel extremely fortunate to have their pets in her care. She’s totally irreplaceable, a gem!
