Dog Boarding Gilmanton

“Very pleasant and friendly. Sent pictures of my dog chilling at their house. My dog enjoyed it way more than being at a kennel. I would definitely recommend them based on my experience.”

“Kiana was truly amazing. I had a sudden family emergency that required me to go out of state. She went so far above and beyond during that time, while having no obligation to do so. From the beginning of the cats stay with Kiana, she had been so incredibly flexible, she agreed to watch them with only two days notice, and due to the situation evolving and becoming unpredictable, she was more than happy to allow me to extend their stay. She was the direct cause of so much stress relief due to knowing the cats were safe, and well taken care of. 5/5 human. As for her actual care of the kitties she again went well above and beyond anything anyone might think is going the extra mile. The cats were given the space needed to become comfortable and very quickly, and happily adapted to the new routine. I received frequent pictures and videos, she was very communicative, and because of her vigilance we were able to create a plan of action for one of the kitties who started throwing up more frequently than normal. She even went out and bought higher quality food for the cats, and implemented a structured feeing strategy so we could better assess the puking, which I doubt was an easy task since they both free fed before they were boarded. She kept me up to date at all times and provided regular, detailed updates. 5/5 for animal care as well. She is the best sitter/boarder I have ever had any experience with, by exponents, it’s not even close. Her service was head, and shoulders above anyone I’ve personally used before and far better than anything I’ve heard about other boarders. Choosing Kiana to care for your pets should be an insanely easy decision for anyone who wants their animals taken care of at the highest level of care, and wants someone that is just a straight up good human as well.”

About: I've taken care of many pets including my own dogs and cats through the years. I can bathe your doggie if you'd like and take him/her for walks. I'm a stay at home mom so your pet will get lots of attention each day. I'll take special care of your furry friends! I'm a stay at home mom of three small children. We currently have two cats of our own so your pet will just fall into our routine each day. I live on a quiet side road without a fenced in yard. I'll take your doggie outside on a leash for potty breaks and walks. Your pet will be well loved.

“Andrea was very friendly and professional. She took care of Bailey like he was her own. She sent me updates of his stay frequently. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for puppy or doggy care. She was amazing!”

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. I now have a 4 year old dog who I've raised since she was 9 weeks old, and an 11 year old rescue kitty. I'm very active with animals, providing love, exercise, basic training, and mental stimulation. I work part time and homeschool my kids full time. I am happy to help with walks, board as needed, and of course do house visits for cats (or potty stops for dogs!). I have a fenced in yard and a one level apartment. I have a 4 year old bernedoodle and an 11 year old rescue kitty who is an absolute love. Happy to provide in home care or bring pets here to get some exercise and play with my pup!

“We’re so grateful Kimberlie was able to help us out last minute with an overnight stay! She took wonderful care of our energetic Husky and kept him active, happy, and safe. From our very first meeting, it was clear that she was comfortable and confident around dogs and knew exactly how to handle his energy. She has a great personality, was easy to communicate with, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and will happily book with her again!”

“Susan and John took excellent care of Charlotte. They sent regular photos and kept in close contact. When Charlotte ran out of food, Susan went to the pet store to buy her new food so that she would not have to switch to something that she was not used to. Amazingly they let Charlotte up on their bed. Lots of cuddling photos. Charlotte looked happy in every one of them. I was very pleased and would highly recommend them! I am so happy to now have a dog watcher that both Charlotte and I feel confident in! Thank you Sue and John!!!”

“Enzo can be a shy guy and a little nervous but Lauren did everything to make him feel comfortable including checking in with me, which I truly appreciate. He came home happy and tired and we would use Lauren again!”

Lauren Z.

“Rory seemed very comfortable with Susan. She was very flexible and accommodating as our drop off and pick up times were not firm until the last minute. Would definitely use Susan again.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Riggs than Ric! He was so kind and loving towards our old dog. He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”

About: Looking for something a little more personal than a traditional kennel? I provide a comfortable, home-style boarding experience in a private, cozy sidebarn where your dog can relax, play, and be treated like part of the family while you’re away. I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and other animals. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I focus on providing individual attention and a low-stress environment tailored to each guest. I’m available most weekends and offer flexible scheduling upon request. I have dogs of my own, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine Dogs enjoy time in the secure fenced areas and, when appropriate, supervised opportunities to explore the five acres of woods. They also have quiet time to rest and relax in the private, cozy side barn.

“Well Starr seem to certainly have a great time on her overnight. I think she was sad to leave. She certainly Seemed attached to Lindsay. I love the fact that Lindsay was very accessible by text. I could reach her immediately after texting her. That was wonderful. I appreciated all of the pictures. And I also appreciated that she had everything ready for us so that it was easy for us to leave without having to put things away. We will certainly use her services again.”

“This was the first time we've left Macey with someone other than family. Jane put us at ease when we came to meet her a few days before she assumed responsibility for our little girl. In addition, she provided updates and some photos so we could see that Macey adjusted to this environment. We couldn't have picked a better person to entrust with a dog that we love with all our heart. I highly recommend Jane to anyone needing to place a dog for boarding!”

Lois U.

“Ashley was a very professional, attentive, and caring sitter. We left our dog with her for almost a week, and he came back very happy and tired. (He's still sleeping it off I think!) I would definitely recommend Ashley to others!”

Adrienne D.

“We can't say enough good things about our experience. Emma was a delight. She made Tuckie a part of their family. This was our first experience with leaving Tuckie and Emma put us right at ease along witb tuckie who went with her withkut issues. She was extremely accommodating and professional. Tuckie looks forward to his next adventure. We would definitely recommend Emma's services.”

Jennifer M.

“Karen is such an amazing sitter! She was willing to work with us during our hectic schedule and was incredibly easy and quick with communication. When we weren't able to get back to pick up our pup because our flight got delayed, she was incredibly flexible and was the one to reach out to us to let us know not to worry. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have been a dog owner since I was 5 and for then past 37 years I have had primarily beagles along with one Vizsla with typically 2 at any given time. Our last beagle Charlie passed away a few months ago and while we would like the freedom having no pet allows us we miss the company and unconditional love they offer us. My wife worked as a vet tech for 10 years so we are comfortable administering meds and I have been pretty successful with training pups (yes even beagles). I work mostly from home and my wife has the summers off from teaching so it fits great unto our routine and it would be a pleasure to have dogs underfoot again. We have crates if dogs feel at home in them but they are welcome in all the rooms downstairs. We live on a long dirt road which is perfect for walks and if it gets too hot we have a cool basement and a pond for them to swim in.

About: I am currently work 8-5. I have a dog of my own and prioritize taking care of her. I will do the same for your fur babies! I can take your dog out for walks every day if wanted or needed. I can play all sorts of games with them if that’s what they like. I have always owned dogs so I’m extremely comfortable and knowledgeable about them. I’m flexible and with enough notice I can plan during the days. So if you require a set schedule for certain days I can definitely work with you on that. Let me know preferences and schedules and I will be sure to work with you all as needed! I have a very active dog of my own and I will prioritize her schedule during the day. I can do that for you too! Living in an apartment, I need to be diligent about the care for my dog and make sure she’s getting out for exercise throughout the day. Parks are near by which she loves to run around!

“These folks are cat lovers! They took great care of my two very shy girls. I would happily use their services again if I was staying in the area.”

About: I love and care for my own dog Finnley—my life is truly built around him. I’ll be offering that same level of love and attention to any dog in my care. If you or anyone you know ever needs help, I’d love to be considered. Please feel free to share my name with any family or friends who might be looking! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home by 2:45 each day, which allows me to be present and attentive in the afternoons and evenings. I take the dogs out for a walk and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care as part of my normal day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment where they’ll be well cared for at all times. My dog Finnley is very friendly and loves the company of other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in buddy to keep them happy and comfortable.
