House Sitting in Antrim

About: I've worked with pets my whole life, and have worked with dogs professionally for over a year. I bring a depth of knowledge and a willingness to learn that help me adapt to the needs of every animal. I work full time, but primarily have weekends and weekdays evenings and nights available. So if you are looking to take a weekend getaway, or need someone to come check on the pets in the evenings, I'll be happy to work you into my schedule. I make sure pets are fed and cared for to their owners specifications. Medical needs are seen to as a priority, and hygiene, bathroom, and attention needs are always a focus when I am caring for pets.

“Amie was great! She helped us out in a pinch with a last minute need. She was great with our dog and sent lots of updates which helped put us at ease.”

“Sandra was absolutely amazing! Our old girl typically gets depressed when we leave on a trip and doesn't usually eat for the first 2 days but with Sandra our Luna not only ate but played with Sandra on the first day. Sandra kept us updated each day and sent us pictures which just warmed our hearts to see how happy our girl was so. We highly recommend Sandra!”

“Melissa is truly one of the best! Her updates were always incredibly thorough and were exactly what we needed! It was amazing to come home to happy dogs and a clean house! She’s incredible!”

“This was our first experience having someone come into our home to watch our fur babies. Emily was incredible, she kept us updated on how they were doing and sending us pictures daily. We are very happy with her care and will be calling her again. Our fur babies loved her as well!”

About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life and I love every kind! I have an active household and I am always up for play, walk, or snuggles. I am a work-from-home mom, so I am literally always home. Work is flexible and non-demanding, so I will be able to take your fur baby outside throughout the day for walks and potty breaks as needed. I do also have four children who love animals too, so please be aware they are in the home while I am watching your pup. They are happy to join me for a walk and give lots of petting. I am typically up early in the mornings to catch the school bus, things relax during the day, then get a little busier at 4pm when kids and Dad get home. Dogs get long walks at this time and then head home for dinner, settling, and bedtime. I have two cats (they steer clear of dogs for the most part, but do enjoy snuggles if inclined), a Golden Retriever who is still a puppy, and a newly adopted Great Dane. We love to play! We play hard and sleep hard. My Golden, named Kevin, absolutely loves dogs and will run with them for hours. He’s very active, but understands that not all dogs are as rambunctious and energetic as he, so can give them their space as needed. Abe is your typical Great Dane, barks at anything in the yard, loves walks and running, and tries to lay on top of me and snuggle and much as possible. While we don’t have a wholly fenced in yard, we have a large front and backyard which I let pets run freely in. We have a *small* fenced-in kennel which we can use if requested, but I don’t usually leave dogs outside for long periods of time. We also utilize an invisible fence for my own dogs, but will only use this on boarders if specifically requested. I am always outside to accompany dogs, but if you have a runner, let me know and I can put them on the lead or keep them leashed while outside. We live on a quiet cul-de-sac, our neighbors are great, but we do live up against the woods and close-ish to Mt. Monadnock, so I will be cautious of off-leash activities if your pup is not accustomed to that. Indoors, we have only one room we gate off where I keep my work equipment and the kids keep their toys. Dogs are allowed on furniture and in beds if they want! We have lots of toys for chewing and playing, and we aren’t afraid of the occasional accident (with regard to ‘dog ate my homework’ to potty on the floor)! We also love hugs and kisses and don’t shy away from any-sized dog curling up in our laps.

“Kristin is absolutely amazing! From start to finish, she provided outstanding care for our dog, Bruce, and truly went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, safe, and comfortable while we were away. She was extremely professional and reliable—always on time, communicative, and proactive. Kristin sent regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. It was clear that Bruce wasn’t just being looked after; he was being loved. When we returned home, Bruce was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. Kristin’s dedication, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. We can’t recommend her highly enough—she’s our go-to from now on!”

“Veronica was fantastic! The girls really loved her and she kept us updated with pictures. It was a great comfort to know the girls were in such good hands. We and the girls look forward to you babysitting in the future.”

“Abigail was great! She stayed in our home and cared for our two energetic rescue dogs while we were out of the country. She kept us updated with photos and text messages during her time dog/house sitting. I knew right awat Abi would be a great fit when she visited us for a meet and greet. I immediatately felt her kind energy and level of competency. And, our dogs warmed up right away, too! I would recommend Abigail without any reservation and hope she's available for our future travels.”

“Grace was fantastic! She was warm, bubbly, and instantly connected with our dogs—they were snuggling with her before we even left the garage. She was incredibly flexible and kept us updated with pictures throughout the stay. She gave us so much peace of mind, especially with our 14-year-old senior dog. We’d love to have her back anytime!”

About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was a little girl. I started house sitting when I was 16 years old. I have experience with chickens, pigs, goats, alpacas, some reptiles. My husband owns his own business sonI help out a couple days a week. I quit my job as a medical assistant to fulfill this dream of mine to love all the animals. I have 3 small couch potato dogs who love having doggy play dates. They range from 1yr to 8yrs old. I have 1 acre of land, no fence. I have the ability to crate.

About: I have dog sat and walked dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for the last eight years and approximately two years ago adopted my American Bully, Cane Corso mix named Clementine. I even trained her to be a therapy dog through a lot of training and education. I am comfortable working with rescues as well. I love working with all breeds, but specifically I love working with bully mixes too!! I am comfortable with medication administration, as well as working with dogs that have recently had surgery. My dog had TPLO surgery and took six months to recover so I’m willing to support in that process as well! I also have experience working with rescue dogs. I currently work full-time as a social worker, but I am looking to help with pet sitting on the weekends or dog walks earlier in the morning. In my home, my dog is on a strict schedule which includes brushing her teeth twice a day, administering medication in the morning, a structured walk and enrichment. For your pup, I can do whatever is needed!! my dog is also crate trained, and has been training to be a therapy dog. I am comfortable with dogs that are reactive to other dogs as well. I am able to do boarding in my home but your dog would have to be comfortable with my dog so we would have to do a meet and greet. I do not have a fun fenced in backyard, but I live on a rail trail and take my dog on walks there often. I am also comfortable with dropping in visits, walks, and overnight pet sitting.

In school to become a dog trainer with a strong foundation in fear free and positive reinforcement training so a lot of my time is around observing and playing with dogs. I enjoy going to the dog park with my pup and working on different tricks and talking to other owners about things they've noticed with their own pets.

Having open availability allows me the time and focus to properly care for your best friend.
