“Our dog, Noddle, is a cherished member of our family; Patricia treated him the same way. From the initial meeting, Patricia's genuine love of and experience with a variety of animals was obvious. Noodle took to her right away. From the photos including walks on the beach and playtime in addition to the messages she regularly sent us, we could tell that he was happy and pampered. We feel completely comfortable and enthusiastic recommending Patricia and will engage her again. She is great. Lucky Noodle. Lucky us.”
“Winnie loved her stay with Leanne's and Michael's family. I was nervous at first leaving Miss W with people she had only just met, but when I saw just how much love and attention she was getting from the 2 boys, based on the photos Leanne sent daily, I sure she was getting the greatest of care! Thank you so much Leanne. And Winnie sends thanks to the boys! She can't wait until her next stay with you.”

“Celina was wonderful. She made Maui's time with her and her pup Smokey, so great. Big yard, plenty of room to run and snuggle time when inside. She also made it easier to leave Maui with her wonderful personality and openess to let Maui do things on her timetable. She was very good at sharing photos and videos of Maui's time with her. I will use her services whenever I have to step out of town and not have to worry about my little pupper.”

“Anely was amazing and super responsive! She gave me daily updates on our dog and reassured me throughout his stay. Our dog needs medication and Anely had no issues administering the necessary care. She was super nice and even allowed us to extend our dogs stay last minute, very accommodating! Will definitely be using her again in the future :)”
About: I’ve been a pet mom for 26 years, and animals have been part of my life since I was a kid. I raised Remi from 8 weeks old, so I’ve been through the puppy stage, training, the teenage years and all the fun that comes with raising a dog. My previous dog lived to 10½ before we lost him to cancer, so I’ve also experienced caring for a dog through his senior years, including giving him allergy shots via syringe. I’m comfortable with dogs of different ages, personalities and energy levels, and I understand that every pet has their own routine and quirks. I’m especially good with pets who need a little patience and attention to feel comfortable with someone new. I’m happy to follow their normal routines, whether that means a long walk and lots of playtime or a slower pace with an older dog. And yes, I’m perfectly happy to spend part of a visit sitting on the floor giving belly rubs. I also have a soft spot for cats and would love to do drop-in visits for them. I’ve had cats throughout my life, so I understand that with cats, sometimes the best care is knowing when they want attention...and when they would prefer you pretend you don't exist. I work from home, so my schedule is flexible and pet sitting at my home is easy to accommodate. I can work around your pet’s routine and am available for walks, drop-ins and sitting. Pets staying with me will have plenty of company throughout the day rather than being left alone for hours. For stays in my home, your dog would need to be comfortable around my dog, Remi. I’m also happy to care for pets in their own home when that’s a better fit. I’m a little obsessed with making sure doors, gates and anything else a pet could get through are properly secured — if I do it at my own house, I’ll do the same at yours. I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, medications and any special needs. I’m also careful about leashes, introductions and anything else that helps keep your pet safe and comfortable. And of course, I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know how things are going while you’re away.
“Another great stay with Ty and her family! They are so kind and thoughtful in the care they show our Teddy. We are very grateful to have such responsible dogsitters!”
“Briana was great with our 2 dogs! Communication was great. We received daily pictures/updates on how they were doing, which is always comforting. We will rebook if needed in the future for sure!”
“Dana and Mathieu were amazing hosts and took excellent care of Vincent! He had so much fun playing with Daisy and Hazard that he wanted us to stay when we went to pick him up. We would definitely recommend them to anyone and will hope they are available next time we are in the area. Thank you for the pictures and videos, it was reassuring to see Vincent so happy and at ease while we were apart.”
“Kyla is always amazing! We 100% trust her with our shy and skittish dogs. She also went above and beyond to care for our Frenchie who had a back injury a few weeks before our trip.”
“Grace is great! She took the time to meet me and my dog ahead of time to make sure they were a good fit. She sent lots of photos and videos of Willie out on walks and at the park. It seems like he had a fun weekend thanks to Grace!”

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Exeter home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Exeter.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Exeter sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in RI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
