About: I have never lived in a household without pets before, so taking care of cats and dogs (and fish) is something I’ve done my whole life. I’ve owned three black labs and multiple cats over the years. I especially love big dogs, but am a big fan of all animals! Besides Saturdays, I am available any day and any times through the summer. I start law school at the very end of August and will have less availability at that time, but I will still be looking for work! I love to keep my pets active and enriched, whether that means going on a walk, playing fetch in the yard, or going to the beach for a swim!

About: I grew up on a small farm and have always loved creatures great and small. I have always had pets and have been a caregiver for friend’s dogs for years. I am now home full time and welcome the opportunity to slather love on more critters 🩷 I am currently home full time so have all the time in the world to spend with the animals. In warm weather I can leave the back door open allowing dogs to come in and out as the please. I have a fenced yard and a sweet 6 year old plott hound (Mojo), many fish, an axolotl (Buggie), and a hamster (Donut). My husband and I have two boys aged 10 and 12 who love animals as much as I do.

About: Hello! I have just moved down to Plymouth from NH where I have been caring for neighborhood pets since I was a child. I am a mom of two young boys and a big goofy black lab named Larry. I love to take walks with my dog and stroller and would love to add your dog along too! I am also able to dog sit for weekends, vacations, whatever need be! Please feel free to reach out and schedule me for whatever your pet family needs. I am free to watch, walk, or care for dogs whenever needed! In the fall I will be teaching so my time will be more limited. I live in a town park with many walking/hiking trails for dogs to explore! There are also plenty of swimming holes for any dogs who are water lovers! I plan to walk with my stroller and baby. I do have my own black lab who loves other dogs who can walk with us or stay home if you prefer! For dog sitting however there are children in the home and my dog but we welcome any family friendly pups!

Elizabeth did a fantastic job taking care of our cat. Our normally very shy kitty, responded to her immediately. Elizabeth sent us videos throughout her time with Liesl, so comforting to us. Everything was done according to our instructions. Elizabeth is a conscientious caretaker, we would highly recommend her. Worth every penny. Thank you, Elizabeth, you’re a gem!

About: Hi! I’m a former veterinary technician with 12+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals of all ages and temperaments. I specialize in working with pets who need a little extra care—whether that’s seniors, puppies, anxious pets, or those with medical or mobility needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, doing nail trims and ear cleanings, and providing gentle, attentive support for pets who require patience and close monitoring. My goal during every visit is simple: to make your pet feel safe, calm, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and care for pets in their own homes. I’m currently available between 9 AM and 2 PM, with evening visits available for pets who are staying overnight in their home. If you’re looking for someone experienced, reliable, and truly compassionate with animals—I’d love to help care for your pet! My days are structured around my daughter’s school schedule, which gives me plenty of time during weekday mornings and early afternoons for walks, drop-in visits, or cat care. I focus on a few pets at a time so each one gets my full attention and gentle, loving care. Evenings are family time, but I’m happy to accommodate occasional evening or weekend visits for regular clients. Whether it’s a quiet cat who just needs company or a dog who loves a mid-day adventure, I make sure every visit is peaceful, safe, and full of affection. Your pets will be cared for like family — with kindness, intuition, and reliable communication. I provide loving, reliable care in your pet’s own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. Staying in their familiar environment helps reduce stress and keeps their routines consistent — meals, walks, playtime, and cuddles just the way they like them. Because I’ve worked as a veterinary technician for over 12 years, I’m confident caring for pets of all ages and personalities, including those who may be shy, senior, or need medication. I take time to learn each animal’s rhythm and make sure they feel secure while you’re away. My goal is for you to return home to a relaxed, happy pet — cared for with patience, compassion, and the same attention I’d give my own.

About: I’m a reliable, patient caregiver experienced with puppies, seniors, and shy dogs. I focus on safe walks, positive routines, and attentive care tailored to each dog’s needs. I have a flexible weekly schedule, so I can reliably fit dog walks into my day. I’m available for morning, midday, and early afternoon walks throughout the week. I care for pets the same way I’d want someone to care for mine—safely, gently, and with full attention. I follow all instructions and keep your home tidy.

Ava's a great communicator and very knowledgeable about dogs. My skittish elderly chihuahua mix was immediately comfortable with her. Ava is punctual, flexible and compassionate to both humans and canines. I've already re-booked.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since before I can remember. Experienced in dog sitting, walking, calming down and grooming, with a wide range of dog types, and ages. I have a very bubbly personality, and I enjoy staying active. I’m currently working part-time one to two days a week so I have a very open schedule to take dogs on daily walks or sit when they need be. I’ve cared for pets in many different ways from walking to sitting to giving medication and providing comfort when anxious or scared. My dog in particular does not do well around loud noises so needs to be comforted during those times and cared for carefully.
