“Sienna was great! Adapted to how my Lily enjoys being looked after and was very communicative during my time away from home. Ill absolutely be booking her again when I have to travel without my kitten.”
About: I have taken animal science classes for past 4 years and previously worked at doggy daycare and boarding facilities. I am also proficient on administering many specialized medications such as insulin and heart meds. I have been taking care of pets since I was 12 years old and have worked with all types of dogs from Chihuahua puppies to senior Great Danes. I am currently working part time, usually from home while going into the office a few days a week. I would be free to visit any pups all throughout the day on most weekdays, usually Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, as well as the weekend. I always ensure that whatever animal I am taking care of is comfortable and feels that they are in a safe environment as well as others around them. Being with people other than their parents can be a stressful situation for some pets and I work to make that encounter as stress free as possible.
“I want to thank Donna and Kim for checking in on Maddie on the days I needed them. First time I've used them and they were excellent! They set up a meet and greet to get to know Maddie and what I was looking for. They took lots of notes and everything went great. I worry a lot about my fur baby but I knew by after the first visit that she was in very good hands. They sent a series of pictures so I could see how she was doing during their check-in. What I especially appreciated was the final picture that showed she was happily back in her favorite spot as they were leaving. I will definitely use them again without hesitation. Thanks to both of you!! Mary (and Maddie)”
About: I’ve spent my whole life around furry friends and miss the joy and connection they bring. I’ve been walking and watching my neighbors cats and dogs for most of my life. I’ve become well trained in administering medications and deep cleaning litter boxes. I’ve mastered all basic skills needed for caring for our friends I’m currently a student but that doesn’t mean I don’t have plenty of time to hang out with your cats and dogs! I’m quite the homebody so when I’m not in class I love to be in my dorm. I also have large gaps between my classes meaning I can definitely take them out/on walks throughout the entire day! I will follow any rules you have around your home as I do not want to disrupt your space. When it comes to taking care with animals I believe that communication with the owner is key (along with sending update photos of their furry friends so they can see they’re doing well!) When taking care of an animal they are my top priority rain or shine.
“So glad I found Tara to watch my 6-month old pup for the day while I needed to travel to a meeting. As a mostly work from home dog mom, I was nervous about leaving my boy with someone new for the first time. Tara put me (and my Murphy) at ease! I came home from my meeting and he was as content as can be. We will definitely be using Tara again!”
About: I have 4 years of experience taking care of dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. And 4 years experience taking care of cats and being a cat owner myself! I work as a self employed artist, so my schedule is completely flexible to meet yours and your furry friends needs. I can do pop ins and longer stays. I am dependable on whatever your furry friends need, whether its a walk, a fresh water and food refill, or a cuddle buddy, I am there with kindness.
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.
About: I’ve owned and cared for pets my entire life. At one point growing up, my family had 15 pets, including cats, dogs, bunnies, hamster, guinea pig, snakes, & fish! I’m currently working part time from home so I have plenty of extra time on my hands. I am also very active, taking walks in the neighborhood multiple times a day. I figured why not bring a dog with me?! I have a large yard and live on a quiet street. Our house is also big with plenty of space for a dog to play.
“Sarah was wonderful with my pups! They loved her instantly! She was timely, thoughtful and sent great updates and notes about how the care time went. Will definitely be using her services again soon!”
About: I am currently a student at UNH with lots of availability this summer. I’ve had years of experience walking and sitting all different types of dogs and would love to help out in any way I can! I am currently working part time and have lots of time to care for your pets. I am available all day Monday-Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. I have work until 3pm on Thursdays and Saturdays but am also available after that time! When caring for pets in your home I will maintain their usual routine to keep them relaxed and happy. I’ll make sure to keep an eye on them if they are out in a yard and make sure they get plenty of attention!
About: I love to make sure your babies are happy, safe and comfortable so that you can enjoy your time away without worry! FaceTime, texts and consistent communication is what makes me your best choice! Former special educator, patience is my virtue! Weekday social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting some getaway time. Occasionally available weeknights for walks and drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually available AM/PM or both. Looking to begin boarding in the Fall 2025 Primarily, I can come to your house for care. Occasionally, happily ready to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected gluten free diets as well.
About: I work with dogs on a daily bases. I love to cuddle,spoil, and keep the dogs active whenever I have free time. A dog is a family member and they will get my unconditional love and attention. On my breaks from work check ins will always be my first priority. They will get snacks if allowed. Plenty of pictures and up dates will happen while you're on your vacation. They are in the best of hands. I know how to control shy, excited and stubborn dogs and dogs who are pullers on a leash. All my time will be for the dogs! I work 5-10 minutes from my apartment. I’ll be able to check on them throughout the day and make sure they get plenty of outdoor time. My fiancé works 2nd shift so the dogs will never be left home alone except for a few hours on Sundays only! I work full time but my fiancé works 2nd shift so when I go to work he’s home and when I get home he’s going to work. Someone is almost always home I never use flexi leashes only slipleads or harnesses that can’t be slipped. I also usually ask for a crate(have a spare) if dogs need breaks
“Xiana is reliable and did a great job with our shy dog who is suspicious of new people! She was patient and kind with him, and put in the effort to win him over which made us feel like he was in very good hands. We highly recommend Xiana!”
About: I'm not like other pet sitters because I truly understand the unique needs of each pet. I take the time to build a bond with them, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved while you're away. My personalized approach means your pet will receive the best care and attention tailored just for them! Hi! I’m Tyler, me and my girlfriend have started this in hopes of making extra funds while in college. I have open availability almost all the time and pet care fits into my daily routine seamlessly. I start each day by feeding my pet and taking them for a morning walk, which energizes both of us. Throughout the day, I make sure to take breaks for playtime and cuddles, and I always set aside time in the evening for grooming and training. This way, pet care becomes a natural part of my day, enhancing my routine and keeping my pet happy and healthy! I care for pets in my home and my clients' homes by creating a safe and loving environment for them. At home, I ensure they have plenty of space to play and relax, along with regular feeding and exercise routines. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I follow their specific instructions and routines to maintain consistency, while also giving them lots of attention and affection. My goal is to make sure every pet feels comfortable and happy, no matter where they are!
About: I've had cats and dogs (and other small furry critters since I was in HS. I love caring for animals. It has always been a joy to care for my own or others.

I'm currently homeschooling my youngest child, who is in HS so my time is very flexible. Weekdays or weekends, I am available and most evenings as well. I have a fenced in backyard and currently 1 foster puppy and 2 cats (who stay to themselves). We have puppy gates as well as doors we can close if we want to keep the dogs with us. We also have a med/large crate, if a pet prefers it. We would never leave you animal alone without checking your preference first.

Marion H.
“I've known Marion Hess for almost two years. She is a dog lover! When Marion offered her availability to take care of dogs when she was home from college on breaks, on our town's local facebook page. I contacted her, and she started walking our black lab mix rescue dog Chloe. She not only walks Chloe, she plays with her and takes her on walks on our town's trails. Chloe is always ecstatic to see her and runs to Marion's car to jump in. Having interacted with Marion many times since the spring of 2022, I can say without reservation that she is extremely well-qualified to take care of dogs. She is also a great communicator, prompt, reliable and of course, kind. It's been my pleasure (and Chloe's) to know Marion. We look forward to seeing her, as usual, when she is home on breaks from college. Sincerely, Beth Butler”
