“Kate is the BEST! Idefix loved every second of hanging out and playing in the yard! I’m so glad she is flexible to come by for regular visits and playtime at our house! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Thank you, Kate!”
“Kailie was a great sitter. She updated us with lots of photos of Misty, and it was really comforting knowing our pet is safe and well taken care of. Thank you Kailie for taking care of Misty. She seems happy and not her usual depressed self whenever we come back from a vacation. Seems like our cat really liked Kailie! Thanks a lot and we hope to book her again in the future!”
“Haley was excellent! Very responsive and took great care of our two kitties. She is a genuine animal person and provided really thoughtful updates (which eases anxiety while away from the fur babies). Will absolutely use her again in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Ayden — your pet’s new favorite friend! 🐾 As a lifelong animal lover, most of my experience comes from caring for my own family pets — from playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet seniors and even a feathered friend. I’ve had the joy of loving animals big and small, couch potato and high energy. We recently said goodbye to our special needs dog after 8 amazing years together. I live with my wife and our 3 fur babies in a quiet neighborhood with a large (unfenced) backyard that’s perfect for safe, supervised play. I also do all my own grooming and love keeping pets looking and feeling their best. As a full-time realtor with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give your pets the time and attention they deserve. I’m conveniently located at the borders of New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Vermont, so I’m happy to serve pet parents across all three states! Whether your companion needs a walk, some company, or overnight care, I treat every pet like my own family. Let’s connect — I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! I am a realtor so I make my own schedule! Fitting in pet sitting will be absolutely no issue, and I am able to accommodate any existing routine your pet might have. Care for your pets will be based off their individual needs, as well as yours! In my home, my dogs are always crate trained for their safety and the safety of other pets in the home. Outside time will be on-leash until trust is built.
“Elias took fantastic care of my tricky kitty, including administering meds in food and dealing with frozen wet food (Smalls) which is trickier than scooping dry food or opening a can. They were very responsive communication-wise and enthusiastic. I will definitely turn to them again for kitty care when I next leave town.”
“Kaylea did an excellent job for us with our three cats while we were away for three weeks. She kept in regular contact and we came home to find everything in great order. I highly recommend Kaylea and look forward to having her back again for future cat care.”
“Christiana took care of my kitty Arwen, who was sick and needing medicine while we were away When a big storm came and snowed her in, she walked half a mile in the cold to borrow a friends car to make sure Arwen got her medicine, not once, but twice! We so appreciate her dedication 😸”
“Laura kept my cat fed and entertained while I was hiking in the mountains, and out of range. I came home to a happy purring cat an didn't get the usual cold shoulder that I get when I've been away. Communication was great and reassuring to pick up in the few spots where I could find a signal.”
About: Hi! I'm Nicole. I'm a software developer & animal lover. I've been around dogs since I was little and have always wanted to adopt one. Caring for dogs with busy owners is a great compromise! Dog owners will love that I will treat their furry pal as if they were mine. They will also love that I have private outdoor space for playtime, anytime, and am right next to central park so there's alot of ground for your furry friend to explore! I truely care about your pets well being so I am consistent with feeding time and will always make sure your furry friend is comfortable, whether its brushing her or refilling her water bowl. I am available Wednesdays and the Weekends for pet sitting, walking, and house sitting. If you are going away for a weekend and need someone to house & pet sit, I'm your girl!
“Deanna was always on time, sent several photos every visit, and kept my dog great company while I was away. My place was clean and my dog happy and safe when I returned. I would gladly hire Deanna again!”

About: I have worked at the Windham County Humane Society for 22 years. I am experienced in medical handling, Safe fear-free restraint, and administering medications IV, IM, orally and subcutaneously. I have worked with many different cat and dog breeds. I work full-time as the Director of Operations at the Windham County Humane Society so I am only available for drop-in visits in the morning and evening. I do not currently offer pet care in my home. I have my own pets that do not get along with others. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Ayden H.
“Ayden was our first pet sitter that we didn’t know personally beforehand, and his care for our pets went better than we could have ever imagined! He was able to meet our dogs’ specific needs, the needs of our home, and was super communicative the whole time we were away! The dogs seemed happy and calm in his obviously experienced care, and we came back to them having stuck with their grounding routines (plus a lot of extra love and snuggles). He even took care of feeding some animals in our barn while we were away, which minimized the amount of logistics we had to figure out before we left and really helped us relax into the rare gift of time away. 10/10, no notes! Thank you so much, Ayden!! Highly recommend.”

When we return from our trips, our animals look just as happy and healthy as we had left them. She gives updates and pictures and never is bothered by extra messages inquiring how our pets are doing. We always recommend Keri whenever anyone needs pet sitting!”
