Dog Sitting Derry

About: I have a wide range of knowledge in animal care. I provide senior animal care, medication administration (have experience with liquid syringe fed, food mix ins), I am patient and willing to learn and help out with any necessary training, exercising, and/or special medical care. I have two parakeets myself, and spend a lot of time at my parents house with my family dogs. I also have experience caring for rabbits and cats as well although I am willing to learn to care for basically any type of animal. I am a hairstylist, and often have the ability to shorten my days to accommodate bathroom breaks, feeding, and other important care times. The only main activity outside of work is going to the gym, but I can easily make a cardio day by going for walks/hikes with your fur baby’s! I am dedicated to following routines that you have set up for your pets such as crating, training skills, and special requests to keep your pets at ease and safe.

“Communication was great with Jeanne! She came for two visits and Lola warmed up to her, easy and happy to recommend her and have her come back again.”

“Charlene took exceptional care of my cat Phoebe! I felt at ease, immediately when I met her for the first time. Phoebe loved her. Phoebe was not at all afraid when she walked in and started petting her. She hides sometimes with friends and family. Charlene had an authentic interest in taking care of her. I would not hesitate to call on her again to watch Phoebe! Sheila”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles since I was 14. There’s no greater joy for me then being able to provide a happy, reliable, and safe experience for others furry friends. As an owner of four cats I know how our little friends make such a large impact on our everyday lives and the worries that come from wanting the best care for them. I’m especially passionate in elderly, and pets with disabilities pet care and understand their types of needs like medication schedules. It’s be a dream being able to help care for them. I also love to send lots of photos to the furry friends family to let them know their routine is being followed. I am self employed as a party princess entertainer and my schedule is very flexible. I am an active person who enjoys hiking, long car rides, as well as reading in my down time. I’m looking to be more active in my community since my partner recently began working from home and can provide our own pets more quality time. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. When house sitting or walking, I care for every pet in their own environment and follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding and walking routine, medications or special needs, favorite activities, and any behaviors or triggers I should be aware of. During walks, I focus on safe handling, staying aware of our surroundings, and making sure your pet gets appropriate exercise and enrichment. During house sitting and walks, I prioritize safe handling, secure doors and gates, cleanliness, and plenty of attention and enrichment. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, routine, and individual needs. I’ll also keep you updated so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: I am a devoted animal lover that understands the importance of keeping your furry family members safe and happy. I take care of my neighbors pets often and actually have some vet tech experience in my coursework. I want to make you feel safe leaving your pet in good hands and will keep you updated so you have updates as much or as little as you like:) I work full time but with some flexibility to work remote and fairly open evenings and weekends. I prioritize my work above social time so if you need regular pet care I’m happy to provide. I unfortunately cannot host pets in my home as I have a family member who is allergic, but if you are able to accommodate in your home I do my best to leave a space better than I found it and follow all the rules and guidelines that make you’re pet feel as comfortable in their space as possible while you are away.

“We recently moved to NH and needed a new sitter for our 5 year old golden retriever. Ashley came to our home three times a day for four days. We had a meet and greet a few weeks prior. Our dog, Bailey, took to Ashley very quickly. Ashley checked in with us multiple times a day and sent a bunch of pictures with Bailey smiling in all of them! We would not hesitate to use Ashley again or refer her to anyone in the area that needed a sitter!”

“Owen was great to work with. He added an extra visit in with no issues when one of my other sitters dropped out. We will keep him in mind for future visits.”

About: Hi! I’m Katie, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s a long walk, or playtime, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust, so I make sure to provide updates, photos, and plenty of love while you're away. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel happy and safe. I’d love to meet your furry friend and help care for them however I can! I just graduated college a few weeks ago. I currently have full availability this summer, because my job does not start until the fall. Any time will work for me. I make sure my dog is well fed, hydrated, and goes out to exercise. We go on morning walks everyday and make sure they are healthy. I love to go in the yard to throw a frisbee.

“Sasha is Fantastic! She’s very communicative, is so good with our pup, and we enjoy having her come over weekly! This is my first time with a pet sitter and she made it so easy and we felt comfortable almost immediately. 10/10!”

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, and these days I'm often the person friends and family call when they need someone to look after their pets. I've spent plenty of time walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they're well cared for while their owners are away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including larger, high-energy breeds. I enjoy getting to know each animal's personality and building trust with them. I've even trained my own cats to do tricks and respond to commands using positive reinforcement. Taking care of animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I take the responsibility seriously because I know how much people's pets mean to them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to provide walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. Outside of work, taking care of animals has always been a regular part of my life, whether that's spending time with my own pets or helping friends and family with theirs. Because I work a consistent schedule and plan my time carefully, I can be reliable and punctual when it comes to pet care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so it's something I genuinely look forward to rather than trying to squeeze into a busy schedule. I try to keep things as close to the pet's normal routine as possible. When I'm caring for a pet in their home, I follow the owner's instructions and make sure they're getting everything they need, whether that's walks, meals, playtime, medications, or just some company while their owner is away. I pay attention to each animal's personality and body language and adjust my approach accordingly. Some pets want lots of attention and activity, while others are happier with a quieter approach and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with both. Safety is always important to me. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I keep an eye out for anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure pets are comfortable, well cared for, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I make sure that I'm always available, and communication is a huge priority for me

“Heather was wonderful with my cat. We've only lived here for 3 weeks,so she's a bit nervous about people coming in and out of the house. Heather was calm with Teaghan. I got photos and even a follow up after I got home to see if Teaghan ate her food!”

“We are so pleased with the service we got from Olivia! We came home to a very happy Lily. The report cards were helpful to see how well adjusted Lily was and that she was relaxed being in our home rather than the kennel.”

Tanya R.

“Dayanara did an excellent job taking care of Cora. She followed directions and sent me pictures as well. She delivers such a great service. The Meet and Greet was very professional and she even brought some treats and toys. I was very impressed. Daya cleaned up a bit as well and I came home to a well organized living room. Cora and I are very thankful. I’m definitely going to rebook with her. Thanks Daya!”
