About: Hello! I'm Rita. I live in Concord, NH with my three little cats. I grew up in Portugal with my three other loved cats, Mia, Sebastião and Cherrie and a cute energetic Labrador named Sasha. Since I remember I always lived surrounded by animals..from dogs to cats, birds to turtles or fishes. That said, I know how to take care and offer happiness to any sort of soul. Playing and walking is my specialty. I love exercising and have a lot of energy - can go for long walks, it's one of the things I like to do the most. Besides that I have lots of love to give. I am a sweet and caring person, with a loving personality. Is there a better feeling than being part of the happiness of a fury soul? For me, there isn't. Looking forward to meet your pet! I am a SAHM and pretty flexible with schedules/time. I might have to bring one of my kids sometimes but they have been doing this with me since they were born. Walking, running, playing and cuddling, the foundation of a happiness of any furry soul. What they honestly want the most is simply lots of love!

“Allison provided a safe and comfortable place for our dog! I would gladly work with her again.”

About: I grew up with dogs. They are my comfort place. Ever since I got a golden retriever at 10 years old, I've been in love. Now I care and love any dog in need of a friendly and homey place to stay while their dog owner is away. I have experience in extended time care for small dogs, like Yorkshire Terriers, Medium dogs, like Australian Shepherds or Pitbulls, and Large dogs, like Golden Retrievers. I also have experience training puppies and caring for older dogs, as well as dogs who take medication. I take pride in loving and caring for a dog like they are my own while under my care. I work from home, so I can stay with the dogs during the day mostly. I can take them for walks or expend some energy with play time to fit their needs. I have had dogs boarded at my house any day of the week, Sunday through Monday. On the weekends we have more free time to visit a dog park, play, or run errands together. During the days, I can go to your place and feed and walk them in the comfort of their own home if needed as well. I ensure the pups bring their favorite toys over and I take time to play with them and show them love. I have a lot of green space around my apartment where I can take the dogs out to the bathroom or walks on a leash, a path by the water walking distance to take them on further walks if wanted, and a dog park in walking distance to play. If at the owner's house, I make sure the dog has fun in their comfort place, but I also make sure to leave just as clean as I found it. I can stay for a little bit and let the pup run around the yard if possible, or I can take them on walks in areas they know by home.

“Suzanne was fantastic! Our Penny girl (our 5-month Golden Retriever) had a wonderful time during her stay while my husband and I were at a concert nearby for several hours. Would recommend Suzanne in a heartbeat and grateful to have her close by!”

About: Hello! I have taken care of my own, family, and friends' animals for over 15 years and those in the community going on five years. I've worked with most breeds and ages. Size does not matter whether your best friend is 5Ibs or 150Ibs! I have a flexible schedule and can work with you on times. Whether it's walking, visits and feeding or all of the above I'm happy to help. I have experience with senior dogs and their sometimes more complex needs, including medical. For all services I require a meet and greet first. For house sitting, I don't do over nights but can be there very early and/or late and happy to work from your home and give your dog(s) as much interaction and breaks they need. For daycare in my home, I require a meet and greet with my dogs, preferably on neutral ground such as a local park, or my yard if needed. Dogs are just like humans, sometimes they're best friends sometimes they aren't and my number one priority is the safety of all animals. Dogs need to be okay with kids. My children are very respectful and I've taught them from a young age how to interact with dogs and read their body language, and give them space. But I know not all dogs have had positive experiences with kids. Don't worry about size or puppy rambunctiousness- they are used to that! I have extra crates if needed or prefered. I don't do off leash, your dog may be great off leash and have awesome recall, but I'm a new person and your dog might be anxious or just not as focused with someone new. Again my priority is safety, after all this is your best friend and family member! I have ground tethers that give them a large range to free roam, explore and play. I also use 30ft leads for fun walks in woods or local hiking trails. Feel free to ask about cats too! I love cats and am first and foremost a crazy cat lady. I've sat for all ages and levels of feline pickiness. I've done meds, including injections for kitties too. I work from home and as a result have a flexible schedule. I take time out of my day regularily to walk, play and be with our dogs and yours, it's a great way for me to break up my day and get to know the great dogs in the community. When caring for your pets I take great care to be respectful of your space, only going where I need to for your animals. I make a point to clean any pet mess and ensure they are secure before leaving.

“Susan is so warm and welcoming, and our sweet Murph felt relaxed right away! He enjoyed naps and long walks and had a great time during his day with her. Very much appreciated!!”

Suzanne N.

“This was the first time I used a dog sitting app, and the experience that my pup and I had was excellent! Kimberlie was very attentive to my dog's needs and even sent me pictures throughout the day. I have every intention of rebooking with Kimberlie again and highly recommend her and this service to anyone looking to place their pet in a safe and loving environment. Thank you, Kimberlie!”

About: 🐾 Hi! I’m a mom to a wonderful 4 year old and currently work as a server. I’m looking to spend more of my free time caring for pets because animals have always been a huge part of my life! 🐾 I’ve been around animals almost my entire life, including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, guinea pigs (I cared for 9 rescue guinea pigs for nearly 5 years), and even a chameleon for about 5 years. 🐾 I don’t currently have pets of my own, so becoming a pet sitter is the perfect way to spend time with animals while helping families who need reliable care. 🐾 I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new. Your trust is something I take seriously, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾✨ I have Monday-Wednesday off, varying things going on during those three days so availability will vary! Fridays I’m available anytime after 4! Saturdays & Sundays while I’m at work I have my mom and best friend on stand by to come check in and give potty breaks to any pets in my care! Although I don’t have a fenced in yard, there are plenty of parks around for exploring and play time, as well as some yard space just right outside my home if you don’t feel comfortable with your pup being brought elsewhere! My place isn’t too big but my home is their’s for as long as they’re here! I can give baths if needed, walks, snuggles, and playtime!

“Thank you Kim for taking care of Stella so well. I could tell right away that Stella felt very comfortable with you. The pictures tell the story. For a somewhat anxious dog, Stella looks relaxed with not a care in the world. Thank you for agreeing to board Stella in October. I have no doubt that she will be well cared for. I won’t hesitate to recommend you to my family and friends Thank you”

“Darrion was a great pet sitter for our dog, Baxter! She was easy to communicate with and very friendly & easy going. We appreciated the tour of her house & yard as well as a meet & greet with her dogs and cat upon arrival, as it made us feel at ease about leaving Baxter with her. The text and photo updates throughout the day were reassuring as well. Baxter enjoyed playing with her dogs and cat. He was tired but happy when we picked him up, so we were happy as well!”

“My 2 dogs had a meet & greet with Nicole before spending the day at her home. There was a nice fenced in area and other dogs to play with. When I dropped them off for the day, they didn't even look back. She was kind enough to send photos during the day and let me know they were doing fine. I picked them up that evening - they were happy and tired!”

Dina S.

“Blade had such a great time with Bielka! We were in town to camp locally and she was the perfect person for our dog to be with during a dog free activity.”

Justin C.

“Susan and John were great! We have a senior dog and a puppy and both felt right at home with them during their daycare visit. Thank you both for being our pup’s home away from home while we were on vacation and couldn’t take them with us on our day trip!”

Rebecca A.

“Janelle and Janelle’s home was just what our granddog Abby needed while we were at a wedding for a few hours. The fenced-in backyard was perfectly safe for exploring and they spent time together outside after dinner. Abby was happy and relaxed when we left her. Janelle was flexible about the pickup. Highly recommend!”

About: I have extensive knowledge working with all types and demeanor of pets! I can’t wait to help out with your loved one!! Pick me and I will do my best to be their best friend! I currently work remote so weekly I can stop by for several hours at a time to assist. On weekends I have more availability and can stay over! I currently have a fenced in yard for my current dog but am also familiar with crating as well and will be happy to help however is needed

“Lindsey did a great job taking care of our 7 month old pup. She was flexible and willing to adapt when we asked of the possibility of going from a daycare booking to an overnight stay. Makita had so much fun playing with her dog and she took her to the beach; her first time there. She was completely worn out which made our 3 hr journey back home easier for her. She slept the entire way! I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again if the situation permitted it!”

Brenda R.

“Our puppy had the best time with Greta! She went on lots of walks and loved hanging out with the other doggos. She was super happy and tired at the end of the day! Definitely will book again. Thanks Greta!”

About: Hi! My name is Charlotte. My boyfriend, our blue heeler pup and I just moved from Dover to Chichester. We decided it was time to upgrade Kota from a condo to a big yard. Safe to say, she loves it. Our house is located on about an acre, but far away from any main roads. We have no traffic on our cul-de-sac making it the perfect area for our girl to go outside and play. My schedule rotates and I am typically working a hybrid schedule. For the days that I am home, I am looking to watch a few pups to give other dog parents affordable pricing, but also give Kota and opportunity to play. When I go into the office, Kota goes to a doggy daycare more towards Dover. The socialization is amazing for her. So we want to give other pups the same opportunity. Feel free to message me with any questions about our house, Kota, myself or anything else. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be fully present and attentive to the pets I care for throughout the day. Since my Blue Heeler is still a puppy, I’m already used to planning my day around potty breaks, playtime, walks, and training sessions—so adding another furry friend into the mix is something I’m well prepared for. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and care, no matter the time of day! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home: I offer a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for play, rest, and attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely—mealtimes, walks, medication if needed, and play—so they feel right at home. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and of course, cuddles and affection! In a client’s home: I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s usual routine. I maintain consistency with feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific care instructions you provide. I make sure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment, and I keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you're away.
