“Tyler took great care of our girl while we were away. She received lots of exercise and snuggles. Tyler sent us lots of pictures and updates. I could tell Callie was very comfortable there. I definitely recommend Tyler for a home away from home for your dog.”

“Sharon was fantastic with Charlie. He stayed for 2 nights and he would have stayed longer if it were up to him. I was glad to receive several photos of Charlie having fun on walks and around the house. If we lived in the area we would bring him to her regularly.”

About: With over 35 years of dedicated pet ownership, my husband Mike and I provide an active, structured, and deeply caring environment for your beloved dog. Because we are both retired, we share the exact same high level of care and compassion. Your pet will receive round-the-clock attention, supervision, and love from both of us. Our Animal Experience: While our extensive personal experience is with raising mid to large sized dogs (Shepherd Mix, Shepherd/Golden Retriever mix, Chocolate Lab, and our current 7 year old German Shepherd - Ziggy) - we are completely comfortable working with all sizes, breeds and ages. Ziggy is a quiet, gentle, and incredibly well-mannered soul who serves as the ultimate welcoming committee. He is exceptionally soft-natured and patient, making him a fantastic companion for all ages ...... from puppy to senior and everything in-between!!! We are also very comfortable administering daily topical or oral medications to keep your pet healthy and on track. Our 16-Acre Waterfront Paradise: We live rurally on a 16-acre waterfront property on the Mactaquac Arm, close to the park. It is the ultimate setting for a dog’s dream country getaway, featuring: • Private trails winding through our forest • Large open fields for endless fetch sessions • Waterfront green space complete with a dock and small beach A Day in the Life: Because we are retired, our schedule is completely flexible. While our daily routine with Ziggy (our loving Shepherd) is active—including a 3 km morning walk on our forest trails, open field play throughout the day (fetching a ball or frisbee, seek and find with toys, etc) and another 3 km evening walk—we easily accommodate any energy level. Whether you have a tiny pup who needs shorter strolls, a senior dog who prefers lounging about, or a high-energy breed who wants to run the fields, we tailor our care to their comfort. After a 5:00 PM dinner, we wrap up the day at whatever pace suits your pup, capped off with a final bathroom break before bed. Whether your dog is a playful ball-enthusiast or a quiet senior who just wants a cozy spot to nap, Ziggy, Mike and I provide a gentle, loving, and balanced home away from home! When your dog stays with us they are not just guest pets – they fully join our family rhythm of wide-open outdoor fun, structure and constant companionship and love. Because we are retired, home full-time and have a spacious, open environment, we are very flexible and can welcome a wide range of dogs into our family rhythm any day of the week.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all ages and sizes—from playful puppies to seniors needing extra care. I’ve also rescued a few dogs over the years. My family has both a 100-pound Bluetick Hound and a 10-pound Yorkie, so I’m comfortable with dogs big and small. As a student living away from home, I miss being around them and would love the chance to share that same love and care with your furry friend. Dog walking services: Monday–Thursday: Dog walking between 12:00–1:00 pm or 3:00–8:00 pm Friday–Sunday: I can offer dog walking services anytime. House sitting: Available weekdays and weekends. Flexible. While I can’t host pets in my apartment, I’m happy to provide house sitting and dog walking services. I always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, whether that means sticking to their usual routine, offering extra playtime, or ensuring they feel calm and cared for while you’re away. If your pet has any specific needs or requests, please let me know in advance—I’m flexible and happy to accommodate. I also have experience administering medications, so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Sai had excellent communication with me and I felt very confident that Chloe was being well taken care of during her time as his place. I would recommend him to anyone needing someone to care for their pet.”

I am currently a retired teacher and looking to walk & care for your pets. This would include week days and weekends. Can’t wait to meet you & your pets! I am able to kennel your pet when at home.

About: I have over 30 years of pet experience including working in a kennelless boarding facility, dog sports, scent work, and having dogs myself. I would love to offer your pup a place to stay for the night or day! I live within a 3 minute drive of three vets should emergency care be needed. BORDETELLA (Kennel Cough Vacccine) IS REQUIRED FOR ALL PUPS' SAFETY.

I have no fence but two lengths of springed outdoor ties (shock resistant) for supervised outdoor play and can offer at least one walk or dog park a day with every stay. I have one senior dog who can be crated in a separate room during the daytime if your dog struggles with other dogs. She is great with other dogs of all sizes. Equipped with: * a large crate with orthopedic (and sanitized) crate mattress for the crate trained/nappers * Large raised orthopedic and temperature regulating bed * Medium sized anti anxiety bed * Kongs available for peanut butter (regular or frozen) for entertainment * a quiet, dog friendly neighborhood for walks and dog parks nearby * a dog-proofed home so your little angel doesn't get into anything they shouldn't
