About: Hi there! My name is Allison, and I'm excited to share that I’m opening up my schedule to take on more pet sitting clients! 🐾 Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I’ve been pet sitting for about six years now. Over the past two years, I’ve grown a loyal base of repeat clients, and with my schedule opening up a bit, I’m ready to welcome more furry friends into my routine! I'm currently in school studying to become a veterinary technician and also work at an animal hospital — so you can trust that your pets are in caring, capable hands. Whether it's playtime, long walks, snuggles, or special care needs, I'm all about making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. At home, I have two energetic dogs and two sweet cats of my own, so I understand how much your pets mean to you — they’re family. I’d love the chance to meet your pups (or cats!) and help keep their tails wagging while you're busy or out of town. Hi there! I wanted to share a bit more about my availability and services for pet sitting and drop-in visits. For in-home dog sitting, I’m primarily available Friday through Sunday, as those are the days I have off from my job at an animal hospital in Londonderry. I find weekends are ideal for pet sitting since I can spend more quality time with your pets and give them my full attention. That said, I’m also open to weekday bookings — I just like to be transparent about my schedule. I work Monday through Thursday with shifts from 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM, except for Wednesdays, when I work 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM. If you're located near my workplace, I do get a one-hour break during the day and can check in around noon, which can be a great option if your pets are comfortable being alone for a few hours. Services & Pricing: * 30-minute drop-in visits: $20 per visit * 3 or more visits in one day: Discounted to $50 total instead of charging over 60 * In-home sitting: Starts at $50 per night Pricing may vary slightly depending on the number of pets or special care needs, but I’m always happy to work with you to create a plan that suits your pets and your budget. My goal is to make sure your animals receive loving, reliable care while keeping things affordable for you. If you have any questions or would like to discuss a customized plan, feel free to reach out — I’d love to connect and meet your furry family! I take safety very seriously, at my home I have a fenced in yard it is short though so any dogs who could jump or have a history with being a little mischievous stay on a 15 foot lead. I am insured as well! If the stay is at your home then I follow your rules to the best I possibly can to keep your pup safe and happy at all times!

I am 26 years old from Derry and I have a ton of experience with dogs, as well as growing experience with cats and chickens! I love being able to create a strong bond with these animals, and your babies will get so much love while you're away. If you need help with anything - from delivering insulin injections, to vet aftercare, to just playing with them when you can’t - I can help you out! I'm currently finishing my master's degree and decided to take a breath from the position I was working, so this summer I have an open schedule with only one week blocked off. I have my own transportation and I am prioritizing my pet and house care! I am unable to offer care for pets in my own home at this time. When I come to your home, I will follow any instructions you leave and I do my best to keep things the way you have them or would like them. If I am staying at your home, I can also clean as requested and I will always clean up after myself. It will always be only me in the home and around animals unless I request otherwise. I am a quiet person and keep to myself for the most part, and I like to limit my electricity use when in someone else's home.

About: With a nurturing soul and a deep love for animals, I boasts an track record of pet care experience. Some of my special skills include , understanding their needs and emotions on a profound level, prioritizing the well-being and safety of the canine companions, taking in consideration their physical and mental health, engaging activities and play into the walking routine, making sure each pet receives the right amount of stimulation and fun during their outing. I have an unwavering commitment to compassion and respect for all creatures sets them apart, ensuring every pet in my care receives the utmost love and attention. I go above and beyond to create a safe and comfortable environment, tailored to each pet's unique personality and requirements. Pet owners can rest assured, knowing their furry companions are in the hands of someone who treats them like family, providing exceptional care that builds trust and fosters a bond for a lifetime. I’m an student, first year of college which means my mornings sometimes are a little busy, even though I have a open and flexible availability. At my home, I take pet care very seriously and strive to create a loving and enriching environment for every furry friend that comes into my care. I'm fortunate to have a spacious and pet-friendly home with a big yard, providing ample room for pets to roam, play, and explore. First and foremost, I prioritize the safety and comfort of the pets. I've taken the time to pet-proof my home, ensuring there are no hazards or potential dangers for them. Inside, I have dedicated spaces for pets to relax and feel at ease, complete with cozy bedding and toys for their enjoyment. With a big yard at my disposal, I encourage regular outdoor activities and exercise. Daily walks and playtime are a crucial part of my pet care routine, as I understand the importance of keeping pets physically and mentally stimulated.
About: I've worked for professional dog walking companies, daycares, and currently volunteer at the MSPCA in Methuen, MA. I love the outdoors, and I love making animals happy :) To me, a 30 minute walk MEANS a 30 minute walk, not a 30 minute visit total. All services prices the same for all creature's needs. When you hire me you get reliability, passion, compassion, and experience. I'm available almost every day, and in all weather conditions. My schedule revolves around my animal friends' schedules so throw me a line and we'll figure out the optimal time and day My dog gets one to two walks daily. He is on bed rest right now as a cancer survivor! Still we go out on sniffing excursions. At the mspca I care for animals from guinea pigs to emus, to horses, to dogs. Each with unique special needs, triggers, joys and sorrows.

Faniely R.
“Choosing Faniely as a pet caregiver was the best decision I made for my beloved furry companions. From the moment she met them, her warm and caring nature put both me and my pets at ease. Faniely's dedication to providing top-notch care is evident in everything she does. Her reliability and responsible approach make her a trusted caregiver. I never have to worry when I'm away, as I know my pets are in loving hands. She goes above and beyond, ensuring they get the exercise, attention, and affection they need. She communicates regularly, sending updates and adorable pictures, which brings so much joy during my time apart from my pets. Faniely's attention to detail and willingness to accommodate any special requests or needs demonstrate her commitment to providing personalized care for each pet she looks after. My pets absolutely adore her, and it's clear they form a strong bond with her. I've seen her interact with various animals, and her patience and kindness shine through in every interaction. Whether it's playing fetch, going for walks, or simply snuggling on the couch, she creates a loving and enriching environment for my pets. I wholeheartedly recommend Faniely to anyone looking for a responsible, loving, and trustworthy pet caregiver. She truly treats your pets as if they were her own, and I am beyond grateful for the exceptional care she provides. Thanks to Faniely, I can travel with peace of mind, knowing my pets are receiving the best care possible.”
