“When our go-to to watch Penny was unavailable, Heather saved the day! She was incredibly responsive, sent pictures/updates throughout the weekend and made me feel at ease. Thank you again, Heather!”
“We were very comfortable leaving our dog Ellie with Suzanne. From the initial meet and greet Suzanne and her family welcomed Ellie into her home. She kept us updated with daily pictures and notes about Ellie. We will definitely use Suzanne in the future.”
“My anxious dog loves spending the night with Kim. She’s always excited when we get there and I can leave knowing she’s happy and in good hands. So happy to have a great sitter!”
“I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with Janelle and Bob! They are so caring and loving! They have a great set up with a fenced in backyard! I know that my dog is safe and well cared for when I'm away. I would highly recommend them to care for your fur babies!”
“Christina took such wonderful care of Milo and Ellie while we were away. She kept us at ease with regular updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We would absolutely trust Christina again and highly recommend her”
“Great stay. Brittanyerin took care of my dog as it was hers. They went for walks and sent me updates with pictures. Even her kids cuddled Maya. I wish I could live closer to her to book with Brittanyerin every time that I need it”
“Another fun visit at Alina’s for Jaxon! We picked him up early to take him for a hike in the mountains. He was excited! He always seems well-rested and calm when we pick him up from Alina’s. He’ll be back!”
“Charles took great care of Gus for the night. Was very responsive when I reached out. He took Gus on a nice sniffing adventure and let Gus cuddle with him all night. next time I am in the area I will definitely be reaching out again.”
“Minda was fantastic! She was so communicative, great at sending updates & pictures, and my pup came back happy, healthy, and well-fed. Minda was also very considerate about helping my pup acclimate to a new environment, which I loved because my dog gets a little nervous when she's dropped off for sitting. I will absolutely book Minda again!”
“Lucia went above and beyond what I expected for someone looking after my dog. She is very calm and has a exceptionally clean home. I received daily pictures and updates as well. She will be only one looking after my moose for now on!”
“Taylor was great with my dogs. I got pictures and updates every day, and she gave them plenty of outside time, and even did their hair haha. My pups didn’t want to leave! Thank you Taylor for taking such good care of my babies. I will definitely be back if I ever need a dog sitter again.”
“Jane is a lovely and experienced dog sitter. My little puppy was very excited and energetic to see a cat that was in Jane's home. Jane was skillful in calming down my puppy and making them get along. My puppy had a pleasant stay in Jane's home for a few days. Jane is very easy to work with too. We had some schedule changes and communicated to Jane, and she was quick in responding and working out our schedule.”
About: I like dogs and cats. Doesn’t matter what I watch but cats are easier for sure! I live in Weirs Beach where many peopke walk their dogs. My house is a perfect location for me to watch your pet if you go to a concert at Bank of NH Pavillion or go on the Mt Washington cruise ship or Train ride! Open for anything since I’m retired and have the time now. Prefer to watch pets in my own home but will watch in yours if your more comfortable I don’t have fenced in yard. I would need to walk dogs on leash or keep cats inside. I do have yard for dogs to wander around as long as they are tethered and I’m watching them
“Rebecca was amazing with our 2 newfoundlands! we were camping at the nearby KOA and needed some last minute dog sitting. She was the first person we contacted and thank god she was available! Rebecca is so caring, sent us constant updates and made sure the newfs were cool and hydrated on this very hott day. If we could bring Rebecca home with us to NY we would! she is fantastic. thank you Rebecca! we'll visit again! ANYONE staying at the KOA and in need of some pet care, dont hesitate to contact her!”
“Nicole was very good with Cozo. Since I was from out of town, there was a lot of coordination ahead of time that needed to happen nd she was very responsive and accommodating. I would highly recommend Nicole and her house for all your per needs.”
“Faustine took good care of our dog and we enjoyed the photo updates she was sending us! We also appreciated how quickly she responded to our messages and addressed any questions we had. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Heather was very quick to respond when I was looking for a dog sitter. She is very responsive and always kept me updated! My dog had a little upset stomach and she did give him some pumpkin puree :) I would definitely rebook with Heather and highly recommend!!”
“Becky had great communication and was flexible when I needed to make a change to our reservation. More importantly, our dogs were obviously happy in her care. We would book with Becky and Ben again!”
