About: Hi! I'm Jessy and I am a lifelong owner and caretaker of cats, dogs, and other animals big and small. I'm here to make sure your pet is happy, cozy, and cared for so that you can give your full attention to work and travel while you're away. I currently own two of my own rescue pups (Jack & Kitty) and am an active animal shelter volunteer. I have formal experience with puppies, dog walking, foundational dog training, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I work from home and am able to visit with your pet during the early morning or late afternoon on weekdays and am extremely flexible on weekends. Running late or stuck in traffic on your way home? No worries - I take same day bookings and can fly over to make sure your pup gets let out and fed! For doggy day care in my home: I work from home and have two small rescue dogs that live with me. I am in an apartment complex, but we have a fenced dog run and plenty of safe areas to walk including a local park with paths! I am flexible to care for your dog in your home however they are used to - let's discuss if your pup has any special needs or preferences.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs as long as I can remember. And my experience goes out further than just cats and dogs. I’ve helped my parents take care of the animals on their little homestead for 3.5-4 years. I took care of ducks, chickens, pigs, goats, and more. I’m currently not working and I’m free Tuesday-Saturday. I’m available in the mornings/mid afternoon. I can do night hours only on Thursdays, fridays, and Saturdays. The people that i currently live with have a huge yard and 2 friendly dogs, one that has a runner hooked up outside and the other one gets to free roam. When I am in the clients home, I will make sure their fur baby is well taken care off and has everything they need. And potentially clean up when I leave.
“Alissa is amazing! So glad she was available last minute! She stayed in touch the whole time, was super reliable and on time for every visit, and our dogs absolutely loved her. She really spent quality time with them and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“I highly recommend Jessica! She was great with Aslan. Aslan can be quirky with new people--but he warmed up so quickly to Jessica (in fact, he was asleep on her feet about 15 minutes into our meet and greet!) Based on the pictures she sent, he looked happy and content on his walks. Jessica was prompt for our meetups and even swung by a second time to pick up a key (when I couldn't find it the day of our meetup). We'll definitely use Jessica again when we're away in the future.”
About: Working with animals of all sizes, from cats and dogs, to horses and more, I have lots of valuable experience! My love and passion for animals since childhood has continued on into college, where I am majoring in Veterinary Technology and Animal Sciences. My classes provide me with further exposure and education on species of all kinds. Being around animals is truly my happy place! Being home from college on break until the last week of January, I am hoping to stay busy and hang out with some furry friends! My schedule and availability will be determined on a first come, first serve basis! I am very thorough with the caretaking of animals, ensuring everything is done safely and as requested by the owners. I will love and care for your pets, just as I would my own!
“Quite pleased with Sue. I only have a cat but that said , my cat came out to play with Sue swishing Maggie’s’ fishing pole. I knew this because I got many photos and text which makes me so happy when I am away. Will definitely use again.”
About: We’ve had pets for over 20 years. One of us used to also pet sit as a side job. Because we are currently traveling on and off, we don’t have our own pets now but love to spend time with all animals. For the past three years, we’ve fostered dogs for a local NH animal shelter. We have experience with animals (our own and fosters) who have required medications and special care. We love to take the dogs for walks, and if they’re able, local hikes. We are home for most of the day. We are currently in between travels and so we can commit all of our time to your furry family member(s)! We can exercise them as little or as much as they require. We live in a condo without a fenced yard but are surrounded by great leashed walking and hiking locations. If you have a fenced yard we would be happy to run your dog in your familiar yard off leash or at a familiar dog park. We have a crate available for pups who prefer or require crating at night or when left alone briefly. We often drive to local fields, parks, rivers and other locations for walks.
“Moriah was wonderful with Rosie, my 10 year old dog, who is very particular with her human friends, especially strangers. After a successful meet and greet, Moriah came by for a drop in dinner and Rosie was so excited to see her! Moriah happily sent me some video updates during the visit. I look forward to working with her in the future.”
“I would highly recommend Jessica. She did a wonderful job with my two dogs over a holiday weekend, and I so appreciate her kindness, caring, and compassion. I will definitely book again with Jessica.”
About: I‘ve been house sitting and taking care of animals since I was 13. For friends, family, and people from the community I live in. I have taken care of all sorts of different animals of all sizes, so I feel like I have quite a bit of experience in this line of work! I don’t currently do boarding in my own house, but am capable of letting dogs/animals out and making sure they are safe and well looked after. I work five days a week, Monday through Friday from 2-530pm, at an after school program so my hours are pretty flexible when it comes to being able to do drop in visits as well as house sitting. My schedule does change during the summer time as I work as a full time summer camp counselor. Typically goes from mid June till mid August. I am able to crate dogs if need be! I also am able to handle large dogs, as I’ve had a Saint Bernard in the past and have taken care of Cane Corso and Great Danes. I love to give cuddles and play time!!
