Dog Boarding in Dover

Located on Baxter Lake, with a private dog beach for your pup!! I also can pick up your pups in the Rochester/Dover region!

Hello, fellow pet lovers nervous leaving your pet? Don't fret!

My name is Bliss, I have well over a decade of pet care experience including prior employment offering pet services along the NH Seacoast! Prior to being full time independent pet sitter, I was a General Manager of an IHG hotel nearby for a few years. In 2015, I decided to veer away from Hotel Management. Now I spend my days assisting pet owners and their four legged family members, and couldn't happier!!

During the Holiday season, I will be filing to officially make Pawsitively Purrfect Pet Sitting an LLC! Which will continue to provide pet services that are affordable for all pet owners.

Looking for dog walks, boarding, daycare, home visits, or a custom quote last minute? I can assist you and your furry ones.

At our home, I strive to spend one on one time with each of our animals and treat our furry guests the same! Your pet will have my undivided attention. Everyday, rain or shine, I bring our puppy Ollie and our temporary critters ( our lovable 2 year old Goldendoodle) on different adventures, such as, hiking, swimming, dog parks, and walks along the beach. In addition to several walks/potty breaks as wanted/needed.

I have a single family home with a fenced in yard,so blocking off our small pets in of one of our spare bedroom area/furnished basement is no issue. I truly love all pets! If you have any questions or requests, I will be happy to accommodate your needs. I also ensure your pet will get an abundance of love and affection, as well as many updates and pictures of your pet throughout his/her stay.

I look forward to working with you and your pet!

Warm Regards,

Bliss Benson

Baxter Lake

I'm home all day/night! On a typical day I leave my back door open to a fully fenced in yard and allow the dogs to come in and out as they please!! I am a stay at home mom/wife so there is constant supervision over the dogs! Every dog that walks into my home becomes a part of my family!! I have tons of references upon request and can negotiate prices!

My husband is very involved with each and every dog that walks into our home :) We love ALL breeds and have no issue with any of them!

There's no need to pay for extra "outdoor" fun! They are offered unlimited access to our backyard or our favorite area; the couch!!

We also offer:

- Bathing ($10 per bath)

- Walks around our neighborhood

- Care for "puppies" 4 months or older

- Assisting with potty training

- Care for elderly or disabled dogs

(please inquire if you would like any of these)

If my rates don't work for your family let me know and I can work with you :)

I require proof of vaccinations either in person or they can be sent to me through Rover!

I do pooper scoop everyday (not if it is raining snowing). I also take extra precautions and spray bleach in the backyard every three days! The dogs are all inside when the bleach is being sprayed!!

If your babies have recently (past 2 weeks) been in contact with Parvo, Giardia or kennel cough then unfortunately I will not accept them in my home for the safety of my babies and others in my care!

While looking through my pictures you will see two different homes .. we lived in Colorado Springs for 6 years before getting stationed here so the older pictures are from Colorado :)

Why I love dog sitting

I have been a dog lover from the day my parents brought me home from the hospital! We've owned dogs my entire life! My love truly began when I was about 14 years old and got my "first" white puppy I had always asked for! I named her Alli Mae.

Meet my pets!

Rambo - he's an 8 year old German shepherd! He's a big baby!

About my yard

My backyard has a fenced in area off of our deck with a larger open area for playtime if leashed! It's a pretty decent sized lot!

My experience administering medication

I am 100% comfortable with administering medication!

There is lots of space for dogs to run here at Goose Summer Farm, we are set far enough off a country road, there is at least 2 acres of mowed land and in the fall, after the fields are mowed, 16 acres in all. I am home most of the day, if I am gone it is for short errands. I do have a barn with a horse, goose and cat living in it but the dogs are not allowed to "visit", on their own. I crate dogs I do not know well if I am out doing errands and at night until we are on a "first name" basis. I find that most dogs prefer to have their own space when they are new to me and my home. I have a large enclosed area off a door that allows dogs to go out on their own and have my own "dog park", an area 60x120 for a play area at the barn. I also walk dogs in the neighborhood as well and during the months of Oct.-March I can also take dogs to the beach for a run.

Why I love dog sitting

I have been a dog lover, animal lover since I was a little girl, I begged my parents for a dog, a horse, a cat. I really did not get my first dog until I was an adult, and that was a black lab, my husband already had a black lab and we got one of his puppies. since then I have had a yellow lab, then 2 yellow labs and now I have a Cocker/Cavalier cross. Along with Kinsey, I have an aged horse and goose in my barn, and a middle aged cat. I have had several horses and cats throughout my life, and have had the horses at home with me for the last 19 years.

Meet my pets

there is a horse, a goose and a barn cat adjacent to the house. generally, dogs are not allowed at the barn unless I walk them there on a leash to play in the fenced in former riding ring. Lucy Goose Is penned in near the horse pasture, Star, mare and Lucy Goose have bonded and Lucy likes to see Star at all times. Both come in the barn at night and go out in the morning. Lucy Goose has adjusted to seeing the dogs and feels safe in her pen and Star looks forward to the company and visits over the fence. After an initial excitement, dogs who have never seen a horse usually settle down and everyone goes about their business of playing together. Chatty Cat was a feral but has adjusted to a heated room in the barn during the cold weather and loves and pats from humans. He is not inclined to be friendly to the dogs so there is no interaction between him and them. If he should be out when we walk down to the park he disappears before dogs get too close.

About my yard

I own 16 acres of land in all, and I do occaisionally walk dogs in the fields but mostly they run in the enclosed areas, either at the house, a 40x60 area off one of the doors, and at the barn, a 60x120 former riding ring closed in for dogs.

My experience administering medication

I am comfortable administering pills but I am not comfortable at all with shots.

**PLEASE NOTE** As our number of repeat customers has grown, we have reached the point where we need to reserve all of our limited capacity in order to be able to accept requests from our loyal base. For the present at least, therefore, we will not be able to accept bookings from new clients. Thank you for understanding. **

We are a retired couple who love animals, with 23 acres of yard, fields and woods and a comfortable home, plus a friendly Chihuahua named Milo and a scairdy cat named Katie who will probably hide the first few days. We usually limit ourselves to 2 or occasionally 3 guest dogs at a time, so the environment is calm, and our guest pups enjoy the freedom of the house, becoming part of our family during their stay. We don't do ongoing daycare, but specialize in vacation/weekend boarding or limited duration daytime care, providing a warm and stress-free environment for your pet while you're away. While we have no fenced areas to exercise dogs off-leash, we have plenty of safe lawn and field area well away from roads where we play fetch and allow responsive dogs to run freely, and plenty of room to walk and sniff on leash.

After growing up with dogs, I know how to take care of them but more importantly, how to love them. I'm happy to keep your precious pup(s) safe and happy while you're away!

The dogs go outside a minimum of 5x a day for a long walk, to the fenced in park right down the street for a nice game of fetch, or down the street to the dog park! I also have a car that comfortably transports dogs to and from your home or for a vet/grooming visit at no extra charge!

Multiple furry friends are welcome!

Please note, all dogs who are staying with me get a lot of love and I never leave them alone for more than a few short hours. I also live with my best friends and fellow dog lovers so your pup will be enjoying extra care and belly scratches! I am happy to come stay at your home and take care of your fur children as well!

Can't wait to hear from you and meet you furry family members!

I have grown up with dogs (boxer and irish setter). I have experience walking small and large dogs: family own boxer and irish setter. I run my own dog walking business (Fredette's Fur Friends) so have experience walking dogs every day. I also own a lab mix that loves to play and is a trick dog certified through AKC that I trained myself. Will play, love and walk your dog as my own! I love adventures and exploring with a 4(Or 3 )legged friend. Will explore new parks, new toys and new trails with dogs. I love being outside so anytime outside is good times. I understand the stress of leaving your fur baby home alone during work or vacay and will therefore make sure your dog has a loving, fun place to stay/be while you are away. I will make sure they get all the attention and love while you are away, and lots of picture updates for you! :)

Come play on a horse farm as an honorary family member! With chickens, four horses, three dogs, an African Grey Parrot and a baby there is so much mental stimulation here that’ll benefit any dog! As a long time animal trainer, your dog will learn to be part of the pack, even if they have never been in this type of environment. My positive reinforcement training, that is part of every dogs visit, can actually help your dog feel mentally and physically relaxed! I do ongoing professional development and am currently learning to incorporate service dog training approaches- let me share these tricks with your dog and help you have a happy pup! I’m home full time and cannot wait to meet you and your dog! We welcome all breeds into our family so that you know your fur baby is getting so much more than care while your busy! Relax and let your dogs paws be in good hands!

I am a certified canine Lover. I have volunteered for over 15 years as a walker and Board

Member at ROAR and the NHSPCA. Until recently, I had five dogs of my own who I cherished for thirteen years. I trained my dogs with Stacy Alldredge (Who's Walking Who - NYC), and learned the basics and then some under her. I am home full-time, have a three acre fenced in yard, and even a pool if your pup likes to swim! I adore dogs, all sizes, all ages, and I think they adore me. I will cuddle with your lazy-dog, or run with them in the woods or on the beach. When your favorite friend stays with me, I will treat him as you do. If your pup sleeps on the couch at home, he is welcome to here. No treats at the table? I will respect that too. Whatever I need to do to keep your pup happy while you are away, and give you the peace of mind to know your friend is having a ball, you can count on me to do it.

Between myself and my counterpart, we have Lab rescue history. A Full family history of breeding and fostering Labradors along with a variety of other breeds. (All dogs are amazing)

We are also First Responder and CPR certified. We are always aware of our surroundings and provide a safe haven for your pet whether we are in our home or in a park or back woods. Safety is key and we always walk prepared with emergency needs for both the animal and human.

Our work schedules allow for full care and the utmost attention to your pup. There are no children in our facility so no fear or hesitation there. We do enjoy caring for multiple pups at once (3 Max) and we always introduce unfamiliar dogs to one another of site in order to reduce dominance and provide a safe and comfortable experience for all.

Our commands are strong, but our hearts are playful. There is a big yard away from the road to run out some energy. As well as a large kennel for all day play, but we would opt first to the free range or allow the animals to be semi independent on our long leads.

We are very active and enjoy the outdoors. There are many trails and parks close by.

Our free time is your pets' attention time.

We are Kathy and Julie and our house is run by Kash a mini-Schnauzer and Pierre the Pomeranian. We take them to the beach or park for a walk almost every day, snow or shine! Most of the time they get an am and pm walk. Favorite places include long sands beach, wiggly bridge/fisherman's walk in York and fort foster in Kittery. We also have over an acre yard that serves as their playground. We provide our dogs with a nutritious diet and excellent vet care. Our dogs are our children. We welcome the opportunity to provide your dog (under 30 pounds) with a fun filled vacation so you can enjoy yours more! We recently added drop in visits and walks in York/Kittery to our services.

Overnight boarding is based on a twenty four hour stay.
