I am currently a college student and travel between Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine throughout the summer. I will be able to stay in the place closest to the pets and travel to different states when needed I will be respectful of your house and animals, I can take them for walks or just let them out of the house if that it what they are used to. I will make sure they are in my sight and I know they are okay at all times while I am there. I understand how scary it can be to leave your home and pets as I have done so myself, I will make sure to send pictures and follow any type of house rules you may have in place to make it as easy as possible.
About: Hi and thanks for considering me to take care of your dog (s)! I may not have years of experience in owning a dog, but I am a huge lover of animals and have years of experience in taking care of them. I'm the girl who stocks up on treats for when my coworkers bring their dogs to work! I'm the girl who cant walk past a dog on a trail without wanting to stop and pet the dogs. I am loving, caring, and will spoil your fur baby with lots of playtime, love, and a fun run or walks! Let's talk about you and your dog's needs! I do work full time from 9-5pm Monday through Friday, with most weekends off, But I can check in on your babies before or after work, if it's just drop ins, or schedule walks. We do live in a nice quiet and low traffic safe neighborhood with plenty of trails around to walk your dog, and I will always abide and follow any special instructions you may have with the utmost care and respect, so that he or she, and YOU, will be happy.
About: I'm currently a Pre-Veterinary student at University of New Hampshire and currently work at a local veterinary clinic. As a veterinary assistant I have gained experience with animal handling and care. I am also Fear Free Certified and know had to adequately prevent fear, anxiety, and stress in both cats and dogs. I have previously worked at a training facility and am familiar with certain signals and behaviors that animals demonstrate to express themselves. I have owned cats and dogs my entire life and have been exposed to many types of breeds, species, and seen interesting cases regarding animal health. When I'm not at school I take care of my two dogs and cats at home. Furthermore, I work part-time at a veterinary clinic at school and at home so I am constantly surrounded by animals and have exposure to many cases. I previously owned a diabetic cat and learned how to administer insulin shots and monitor her glucose levels multiple times a day. I feed and water my animals in my home at least twice a day, snacks are often provided as well. I walk my dogs as much as necessary (typically twice a day). I always play with my cats and dogs. I have a kitten who loves playing fetch with toy mice and a 5 year old dog who enjoys hiking trips and swimming. The two dogs get groomed when needed but I brush them consistently in between grooms. Finally, I am responsible when it comes to my animals' health and notice any changes in behavior or appearance almost immediately. I find it important to keep them up to date with vaccines and any other medications they need.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire childhood, I have experience working with dogs at a boarding kennel and daycare. I own a great dane myself so size does not intimidate me. I have given dogs baths, nail trims, medication by mouth and medication by syringe, along with feeding and walking all types of dogs. I currently have a very open schedule, as of right now I am extremely flexible to dog sit or walk when requested. I can give your animal plenty of attention and care. I provide reliable and experienced dog care tailored to your pet’s needs. With a background in a boarding kennel and daycare, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments—including giant breeds like my own Great Dane. Whether your dog needs feeding, walks, playtime, or just companionship, I ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for while you’re away.
“Amanda was so great for drop-ins with our senior dog when we had to travel! We got thorough updates and progress reports and the cutest pictures. She kept up with her medications and routine. After our first meet and greet I knew she'd be great with our dog and she definitely was!”
“Xiana was fantastic with my shy cat who had never been left alone before! I loved getting messages and pictures with each visit, and I felt so reassured about the care my cat was getting. Xiana was punctual, friendly, and really paid attention to all of my requests. I absolutely recommend Xiana and would not hesitate to hire her again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs (and pets in general) since I was around 12 years old. I started by watching my neighbors dogs and moved on from there. I am now a certified dog groomer and want to continue pet sitting as well! I work part time, so I have plenty of time to schedule pet sitting, play and such. I also do my dog grooming on the side for right now. I have a partially fenced yard, and no other pets so my home is friendly to dogs who don’t like other animals, and a very spacious yard

Amy R.
“Amy is not only a loving and caring pet owner for her own fur babies but she is just as attentive and kindhearted to all pets she has a chance to meet. She has cared for both my “spicy” sometimes ill-mannered cat and my senior medium breed pup. Both require medications and special attention that Amy has easily handled. She is both responsible and considerate always having my pets best interests in her mind. Amy provides the standard of care and affection my pets require. She puts my mind at ease when I travel and is the first one I contact to watch over my pets!”
