Pet Boarding East Sandwich

About: Bio is underneath but first what to expect from me when you book the following services: Dog Walk: depending on your needs and likes, I will walk your dog(s) in your neighborhood or take them somewhere else if preferred. I always carry treats, doggie baggies and extra leashes. The dog will remain leashed at all times. Pick up time can vary by about up to half an hour due to other clients prior. Drop-In visit: Food and fresh water is given, as well as toilet break. To fill agreed upon 30 minutes there will be snuggles, play time or perhaps quick brushing if desired. Client may add another 30 minutes and specify if a little walk is desired as well. If an accident occurred this will be dealt with right away and added to notes and pictures. Overnight house/pet sitting: (Day 1) 7-9am; noon check in; 5-9pm. You can expect me to give Feed and fresh wate, clean up after pets(inside and outside, please provide info on where to put doggie bags after), walk, snuggle, play with as needed or desired. Stay overnight: please let me know if you do NOT want me to stay the night. The hours above will be applied here. Otherwise provide clean bedsheets. Optional: I am happy to also bring in your mail, water plants(inside and outside) and adjust lights. For my personal assessment please provide a list of those tasks as well as any other pets that may need caring for. BIO I have been a pet owner since I was a kid and have always been helping neighbors with their pets by walking their dogs for the elderly neighbors, caring for bunnies or cats and helping brush horses and moving them to pasture in my neighborhood growing up in Germany. I have been a dog, cat, and chicken owner for a while, and we even have a rabbit, and adopted a leopard gecko at some point. I am also a wife, mom of 4 kids and enjoy home making/ and a lot of home steading here on our micro farm. Staying at home and being available to my kids is priority. I am luckily they share my love for animals. I am a long time U.S. resident (since 2007), and have been raised in Germany. My English is fluent, and I have been told that I don't have an accent anymore, so communicate is definitely not an issue. I would love to care for your little furry (or not so furry) pet, may it be checking in for a feed or potty break, overnight stay, or a relaxing or vigorous walk. I am looking forward to meeting you! I am stay at home mom and have a lot of flexibility when it comes to stepping out to visit your furry friend. All I ask is to have notice and be respectful of my time and schedule. And I will reciprocate this of course! I am flexible and cater to anybody's unique needs. As long as I have ample notice and frequent communication. I am happy to send pictures and text messages during a visit/feeding if so desired. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.

“Donna was an outstanding caretaker for my dog Mulligan! I hesitate to share how wonderful she was because I want her to always be available when I need her again! But I won’t be selfish and keep her all to myself. :) Donna goes above and beyond the expectations, sends multiple updates per day with photos, kindly suggests advice that she feels would benefit your pet, and exudes a warm and kind demeanor. She followed all of the instructions I left , she treated my dog like a member of her family, and she made a genuine connection to him. Donna is really a fantastic companion for your dog while you can’t be with them.”

“Jennifer was exceptional! She was extremely flexible and kind towards us and our pup JoJo. JoJo immediately felt comfortable with Jennifer and her tiny chihuahua. They played and took a nice walk together. Jennifer had great communication and sent a cute video and a few pics! We would highly recommend her services and would definitely have her watch JoJo for us again!”

“Helena was great with our senior dachshund, Frankie! She obviously loves dogs and took fantastic care of him while we were away. Thank you!”

Andrew F.

“We left our girl in excellent hands. Thanks so much to Tim and his great family for taking incredible care of our bulldog! Cannot recommend them more as outstanding hosts for your pup! Patrick”

Patrick S.

“Fantastic dog sitter! She is compassionate and takes fantastic care of your pet. My dog was happy and comfortable the entire time she was away and the level of care is even better than a professional facility. She even sends daily pictures and videos and that is great when missing your pup. Next time I need to leave my dog I will definitely be sending her back over Nathalias!!”

About: I’m a lifetime animal lover, and get along terrifically well with dogs. My house is the go-to for friends and family needing a place for their pups to stay. I am retired with volunteer jobs part-time (2mornings), during the week. I’m never away from home for more than a few hours during which time my dog-friendly feline can either ignore your dog or keep them company. I’m home the majority of the time. Cozy corner in my den seems to be everyone’s favorite hangout and spot for their bed. The ilving room has multiple sunny spots for napping throughout the day. We will take several neighborhood walks a day and if dog and owner are willing, I go to Thompson’s field in Harwich where they can romp.

“Ruby was a terrific dog sitter! She was very flexible and understanding about scheduling changes and most importantly took wonderful care of our Golden Retriever. Thank you for making Penny feel so comfortable and for all of the great updates throughout, Ruby!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs prior to having kids, in my early 20’s. Summer residents and Nantucket residents where we resided before relied on me to walk and dog sit their pets. I’m currently home full time with my two boys. My oldest will be going into kindergarten in the fall and my youngest will be going to daycare part time and be home home with me the majority so I’m available/flexible. I am responsible and very protective of my kids along with clients pets. I do not have a fenced in yard but I would love to take your pet for nice long walks during the days on leash.

About: I have been a pet owner and or caregiver since I was a child. I have experience with a variety pets from young and energetic to seniors. I understand the needs of each and can provide the necessary care based on age, energy level, and personality. I am self-employed and can easily integrate pet care into my day to day responsibilities. I enjoy taking long and frequent walks with pets and also enjoy down time relaxing with pets who prefer quiet company. I live in close proximity to the St. Joe Walkway/Palm Coast Linear Park which provides numerous walking paths. I am neat, clean, and respectful of others homes and preferences with regard to caregivers entering their spaces.

“We had a very last minute trip to the cape and Jackie was very responsive and accommodating! I cannot say enough good things about the care she was able to provide for my dog Tate. She was able to send constant pictures and videos which made the time away from the dog much easier knowing he was in such loving care. It was a 10/10 service and worth every penny!”

Jacob S.

“Tracey and her family took amazing care of our pup Mulligan during our long weekend away. She sent pictures and updates along the way, which was amazing for this anxious pup-mom. Highly recommend Tracey, and I’m sure we will send Mulligan back for visits when we travel again!”

About: Hello! I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and am excited to learn more about your pup. I have a very friendly golden retriever who will be home during your dog’s stay and will be around all day to play with your dog and can take them out at regular intervals. Look forward to hearing from you! I’m currently working on from home so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog! I’m up usually around 7am and can take the dog out first thing, then usually take the dogs out around 11pm for a last potty break. I’m very clean/organized and will be respectful of your home and belongings should you need me to stop by your home to watch your pup

“100% satisfied with Victoria couldn't ask for any one better to watch my dog. Ty is an 18 year old morkie who requires alot of care he is completely blind and wears a diaper and Victoria went above and beyond with my dog. I knew ty was in good hands with Victoria. I will definitely leave ty with Victoria if I ever need a dog sitter again. Thank you Victoria 😊 10 stars from me ❤️”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover and dependable walker who knows that every pup has their own personality and pace. From high-energy zoomies to slow sniff-filled strolls, I’m happy to tailor each walk to what makes your dog happiest. I also have experience working with reactive dogs, so I know how to keep walks calm, safe, and positive. Whether it’s fresh air, exercise, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’ll make sure your dog feels cared for and comes home with a wagging tail. Think of me as your dog’s new walking buddy — ready for adventure, belly rubs, and everything in between! I work full-time, and am fully remote. My days provide good flexibility to accomodate walks, let-outs, and canine slumber parties. I have a 12 year-old Pyrenees/Border-Collie mix, who loves to get out and move around, so I'm no stranger to the 4-5 walks/day schedule ;) Maintaining your trust, and your furry family member's safety will always be top priority. I will always defer to owners and their guidance, since parents know best! Home care will focus on meals, finding comfortable spots in lieu of a potentially awkward new setting, and lots of love and support. I know how anxious I get when I leave Oreo (my pup) alone for 15 minutes to run an errand, so I hope to alleviate those concerns and ensure that your pup will have a blast.

“He was very friendly he knows a lot about energetic dogs reply’s back very fast and I will def be using him as a boarder again maybe even training in the future”

About: I have volunteered at two different local animal shelters, been a dog-walker through WAG for 2 years, and my rescue dog was an emotional support animal at Boston Children's Hospital! I grew up with dogs and cats and love animals! I am currently a graduate student at Northeastern and looking to make extra cash while spending time with dogs! I used to have a rescue yellow lab and an Australian Shepherd mix! I currently have two cats. I love being active and am happy to take your dog on a walk, hike, or run! I used to dog-sit my former neighbor's black lab and take her on 3-4 mile runs everyday! I am familiar with local parks and walk routes! Please contact me if interested!

“My dog Nugget bordered with Glenn and Kirstin for two nights .They were great with Nuggie. He seemed right at home with them from the very first day. They kept in touch with me and sent me photos of him “settling in”. I had been worried because he had never bordered before and he’s a little skittish. (he’s a Chihuahua), but he seemed right at home in their place. Kirstin seemed especially loving towards him as he was cuddling on her lap when I arrived to pick him up! I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them!”
