“Sandra was the perfect pet sitter. Our little Sam loved exploring her fenced in yard and playing with her little fur babies. I would definitely recommend Sandra and will be using her again in the future.”
“Chuck took exceptional care of my dog, Ella. She is a senior dog with some recent health issues and he was so good with her..she requires medications and he made sure she got what she needed. She’s also not used to a lot of people other than family and hasn’t been boarded for several years so she was pretty whiny and clingy for the first few days but she settled in. I so appreciate his patience with her. I would 💯 recommend Chuck for pet sitting! Five stars!!”
“Deserae was wonderful to work with and took such great care of our pups! We were needing a sitter close to where we were traveling and she was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. She has an amazing set up and you can clearly see she loves what she does - gave us peace of mind leaving them in her care. Our dogs were wore out when we picked them up which is always a good sign they had fun and got plenty of play time. Will absolutely use her again if we're in the area!”
“Christy was fantastic in caring for our Coco. It was obvious she went out of her way to insure he felt at home. The updates and photos relieved our separation anxiety. She most definitely will be used to care for Coco when the need arises. Owners can be assured their fur babies are well cared for in her home.”
“Magdalena is great! I highly recommend. Communication and pictures throughout my pups stay helped me feel more comfortable. And when I dropped my dog off the second time she was SO excited to see Magdalena :)”
“Excellent communication. My dogs were happy when I picked them up. I was nervous to leave my dogs b cause I never had left them before this past weekend. I felt very secure leaving Buddy and Louie with Ashley and Tyler. Will definitely be rebooking, I won't even consider leavingy pets with anyone else!”
“We are extremely grateful for Jennifer’s care and dedication to our dog! She made us feel at ease with her updates and pictures. I can tell Dana felt happy and relaxed throughout her stay. Thank you so much, Jennifer!”
“Paul and Stephanie were great. This was the first away from family trip that my dog has had in a long time and he seemed to have a great time. They were very accommodating to him and were great about sending picture updates to let me know he was happy and being cared for. Would highly recommend.”
“Marissa does a great job looking after our kittem Bug, he looked super relaxed and comfortable in all the photos she sent. I will use her whenever we need someone to look after our pets”
About: I started out fostering puppies for a few years, one of which I kept as my foster fail, Emma! Emma loves to play with other dogs and would love the opportunity to hang out with yours while you get away for either work or fun. I have a full time job where I work from home, so would have plenty of time to care for your dog as needed. I am available most weeks and weekends. Since I have my dog, it would be essential to arrange quick meet and greets prior to committing. I have my dog Emma, who is a Saint Bernard mix. Though I just have her at the moment, she grew up with other dogs and loves the companionship. I recently constructed a fence for my backyard for ease of potty breaks, though stairs are necessary for this. Emma has free reign of the house while I am working, but I do have an x-pen and extra dog bed I could setup if needed. Emma takes daily medicine for her joints and thyroid, so I am used to giving medicine if your pup requires medicine as well.
“Stephanie (and her family) were excellent with Ava. She sent many pictures and kept me updated on how she was doing. From the looks of it, Ava was happy to be on a little vacation. I am doing weekly day care visits, with Stephanie, to get Ava more social! Thank you for your help Stephanie!!”
“Kaylee is super friendly and easy to work with! She sent us daily pics even though we didn’t ask for them. Her two dogs kept our dog company too for the week we were gone and I’m pretty sure our pup would have rather stayed with her.”
About: I am local foster through a local rescue. My husband and I both have a passion for dogs and will treat your fur babies like they are our own! We have experience caring for puppies as young as 8 week and seniors. We are comfortable administering medications if needed and are familiar with pups who may have seizures. We don’t have any stairs so there is no need to worry about a senior pup who might have hip issues needing to climb stairs. I work full time and my husband works full time as well. Our schedules are staggered so your pup would be let out first thing in the morning by myself and then my husband will resume until he leaves for work. Midday we have a family member come over and let the dogs go outside and allow them to eat and drink as well as have some time to play. They are never left alone for more than 4-6 hours at a time. The days I’m off I’m home and my husband works from home 2 days a week as well. We have had this routine for over 4 years now with our own personal dogs and there has never been any issues. We had a brand new privacy fence installed on July 12th! We have a half acre back yard so dogs will have plenty of room to run! We will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have. Please note our home was recently built so our grass is still in the process of growing. There may be days your pet becomes muddy if conditions are rainy. I am happy to provide a bath for your pet for a small additional fee upon request. I also highly recommend doing a meet and greet prior to your stay to ensure your dog will be comfortable with my pets and around the house.
“Serinitee super sweet and great with my babies. She communicates well with any questions and concerns either of us had. Mabel and Rowdy were well taken care of without doubt and I would highly recommend. I will be using her again!”
“Barbara was a great sitter. We contacted her last minute and she did a great job loving our dog. She gave us daily updates, pics and videos. Her dog was so playful as well. Which was a bonus cuz our dog loves to play… and I think he met his match in playfulness!”
About: We've had pets my whole life. When I was younger, my parents bred a variety of animals ranging from Persian cats to Jack Russells and Dobermans. I also have experience caring for exotic reptiles and birds. I'm a dog mom to three adorable Dachschunds. When your animals are with me, they will be treated like family. My whole family loves animals. My sister is a veterinary technician that trains and shows animals in her spare time, and my daughter is looking to follow in her footsteps. I currently work part-time, only during the week. I have night time availability and full weekend availability. Also have a break mid day if needed. I love animals of every kind. I would love to care for your animals in either my home or yours. I have experience with any type of animal. I do not have a fenced in backyard, but live off of a secluded side street in Bella Vista ending in a Culdesac. We love long walks, and can make sure that your dogs get plenty of exercise. If children friendly, I have older kids that love to play. They engage with the animals properly, and know how to respect boundaries. My sister does dog training, and my kids often like to help her train her Dobermans and German Shepherd.

- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Exeter.
