Mary Hanafin 

I grew up in Burlington, MA, surrounded by animals—especially horses—on a property with a barn and plenty of pets that felt like family. At my technical high school, I spent four years studying everything about dogs, from grooming and training to breed identification and behavior. I truly love being around animals, and working with them brings me real joy. As the youngest of nine siblings, I’ve learned the value of patience and teamwork. Outside of work, I’m probably enjoying a good cup of coffee, some sushi, or my favorite treat—Kit-Kats!

Suri Chavali

I’m a lifelong soccer player and coach with experience at UMass Boston, UMass Amherst, and the New England Revolution U18s. When I’m not on the field, I love spending time outdoors—reading, visiting the zoo, and walking your amazing dogs! At home, I share my space with two Pueblan Milk Snakes, Captain Jack and Mazikeen. My favorite meals? Definitely Korean barbecue and Jamaican food.

Amber Casaubon

I’ve been working with dogs for about three years, and being part of the Goldiewalks team has truly been a perfect fit for me. I graduated from a technical high school, where I started building the hands-on skills I use every day in my work. I’m also certified in animal CPR and first aid, because safety and care are just as important to me as creating a fun, positive experience for every dog I meet. Working with animals isn’t just a job—it’s something I genuinely love to do.
When I’m not dog walking, I also love making art of any kind! Tattooing, watercolor—love it all!

Your Friendly Dog Walker! With a background from an agricultural high school specializing in grooming, I bring my passion for pets to every walk. Before this, I honed my skills as a brusher bather, ensuring every fur baby looks and feels their best!
When I'm not having fun outdoors with my furry friends, you can find me enjoying delicious pizza, running, or whipping up something tasty in the kitchen. I'm all about spreading joy and tail wags, one walk at a time!
Let's hit the trails together!

Audrey Baker

I’m Audrey! I’ve been working for Goldiewalks for two years, while simultaneously following my passion as a vet tech. My strengths are that I have a strong sense of what each dog needs and always bring a calm and loving approach each day I’m on the trails. I grew up in Canton, MA, and have two dogs named Skyla & Sammy. In my spare time you’ll catch me mowing on Mexican food or relaxing with a good book.

Mana Chavali

I’m a former Boston University graduate, where I was a student-athlete, and I’m currently a professional soccer player. I’m a big fan of Boston sports teams and love spending time with friends and learning new things. I’ve owned dogs all my life and have also worked as a dog walker and dog boarder. My favorite foods are pasta, sushi, and kebab, and a fun fact about me is that I can do a backflip!
