Dog Sitting Hooksett

About: Leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful—you want to know they’re safe, comfortable, and with someone who will genuinely understand their individual needs. That’s exactly the kind of care I aim to provide! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I especially enjoy working with high-energy dogs and have experience with reactive dogs and dogs with fear-based behaviors. I’m comfortable taking the time to understand their triggers, routines, and boundaries rather than expecting every dog to behave or interact the same way. I also know how important consistency is! If you’re working on things like not jumping on guests, waiting at thresholds, staying off counters, leash manners, or other household rules, I’d love to know. I’ll reinforce the routines and expectations you already have in place rather than accidentally teaching your dog that the rules change when you’re away. I have three dogs of my own—two Golden Retrievers and an Australian Shepherd—so high energy, lots of personality, and dogs who need both physical and mental stimulation are very familiar territory. Depending on your dog, that might mean a good walk, sniffing and exploring, fetch, playtime, puzzle activities, or simply some one-on-one attention. I’m also comfortable caring for pets with additional medical or emotional needs. I have experience with epileptic dogs requiring medication on a strict schedule, as well as dogs who become frightened or anxious during thunderstorms and fireworks. And I’m definitely not just a dog person! I’ve been caring for cats since I was about 10 years old and have experience with both healthy cats and cats with medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and subcutaneous fluids and have cared for cats with chronic kidney disease and FeLV. Most importantly, I know how much trust you’re putting in someone when you ask them to care for your pets. I’ll follow your instructions and their normal routine closely, keep you updated with plenty of photos, and give them the same attention and care I’d want someone to give my own animals. My goal is for you to be able to leave knowing your pets are safe, happy, engaged, and in good hands. I am available for walks and drop in visits in the evenings on weekdays (generally, after 5PM), and have more flexibility on weekends to provide pet care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is maintaining their normal routine to help minimize stress and keep them comfortable while their family is away. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions closely and take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, preferences, and needs. For dogs, this includes walks, playtime, enrichment activities, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. I believe mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise, so I incorporate activities such as sniff walks, training reinforcement, puzzle toys, or interactive play when appropriate. For cats, I ensure litter boxes are kept clean, feeding schedules are maintained, and that they receive the level of interaction they enjoy—whether that’s play sessions, brushing, cuddles, or simply quiet companionship. I am also comfortable administering medications and caring for cats with special medical needs. I provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I also treat every home with the same respect and care I would my own, ensuring it remains clean, secure, and exactly as you left it.

About: We've always had a strong love for dogs! Growing up in a household with dogs, sitting for friends/families dogs, and now having two dogs of our own, we feel confident that your pup will be well taken care of! Unfortunately, both of our dogs have a chronic medical condition requiring very strict food and medication administration. Therefore, we are extremely mindful of dogs who may have special needs, diet restrictions, allergies, medication administration, separation anxiety, etc. We utilize a positive reinforcement approach to training/caring for our dogs and other dogs! Working from home provides us the flexibility to give your pup the love and attention they need! They will never be left alone when boarding with us regardless if it is a weekday/weekend. We understand being away from home can be stressful and want to be there every step of the way! We can accommodate 1 dog per day/night and have a large fenced in backyard for plenty of space for your pups to run around! The fence is 6ft+ and very secure. We also have two very friendly dogs who love nothing more than to play and cuddle on the couch! We only allow dogs from the same home at one time so you can be rest assured your dog will get the attention, love, and safety they need. We will treat your pup like they are our own and understand the anxiety of being away from your furry friend!

About: I’ve cared for dogs for years for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I’m active and love being outside, so long walks and playtime are no problem. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I work at a restaurant Sundays, Mondays, and Thursdays from 10am–10pm. On my days off I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I’m reliable and will make sure your pet gets lots of attention, exercise, and care while you’re away I have a fenced one-acre yard where dogs have plenty of space to run and play. I also have sand pits and dog toys for enrichment and exercise. If the owner is comfortable, I love taking dogs on hikes and walks on the rail trail in Londonderry. I used to have a Jack Russell, so I’m very familiar with energetic dogs and making sure they stay active, safe, and happy.

“Kali was wonderful, friendly, and communicative. She was great with the dogs and someone we’ll absolutely consider for future dog sitting needs!”

“Vivian was an amazing support for my cat while I was away for 5 days. She spent quality time with her, completed all tasks, and checked in with me daily. I look forward to working with her again!”

About: I have always been around dogs since I was a kid. Between my own, family members and neighbors, I have cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for many years and been able to adjust to each dog’s needs with no problem at all. I am great at tiring pups out with play or long walks or hanging with them if they are on the lazier side! I work part time in Concord so I’m looking to take care of dogs for fun and some extra cash! I am available differing days of the week depending on my schedule, but when I am free I will be able to tire out the pups with long walks or extended play sessions if they so desire! I will easily be able to navigate client homes and learn a dogs likes and dislikes quickly to make for a smooth and comfortable experience for the pups.

“Chris and Erin were excellent caretakers of my two furry friends. Would absolutely recommend them.”

“Jenny is a wonderful sitter. She does drop in service for my 2 dogs. She worked through some confusion on the first day responsibly. Most importantly, my dogs feel comfortable with her.”

“Allison watched our cat and dog with daily visits while we were away. Our dog is a large German Shepard that can be a bit of a challenge to handle, but Allison quickly put him at ease and established trust with our dog. She also took excellent care of our cat, giving him the type of quality attention that he loves. What stood out to me was how Allison kept a watchful eye on everything during her visits. She pointed out an issue with our rather expensive fish tank and notified me. I'm sure we would have lost most of our fish and coral if she had not taken the initiative to help out. In addition to giving us daily updates and photos of our pets she gives you the sense that everything is well taken care of. Allison far exceeds what I was expecting of a good pet sitter. In my opinion, there is absolutely no one better. I highly recommend Allison. You can feel at ease when you are away. She is a superstar!”

About: I grew up with a lot of different pets. I had three cats and one dog in my adult life. They are no longer with me so I enjoy taking care of and boarding my friend’s animals when they are away. I really enjoy taking care of cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I own my own bookkeeping business and primarily work from home. I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I am looking forward to having a little company during my work day. I have a large second floor apartment and a fenced in yard. I live in the North End of Manchester so the neighborhood walks are nice and safe. I live close to Stark Park and Livingston Park for walking trails.

About: Fun, loving, kind to dogs. Love to play with them, been dog walking when my family needs me to experience if dog pulls/starts to run Looking for part time, as long as I can bring my son on weekends it’ll be fine. Weekdays M-F 9am to 2pm availability. Thank you! Enter home through side door and make sure to greet pets before doing whatever is needed to be done. Make sure pets don’t escape. Thanks!

“Amanda was so great for drop-ins with our senior dog when we had to travel! We got thorough updates and progress reports and the cutest pictures. She kept up with her medications and routine. After our first meet and greet I knew she'd be great with our dog and she definitely was!”

About: I grew up with 5 dogs, 2 large and 3 small. I went through professional training with both large dogs. Also have had many dogs since and have been pet sitting for years! I have a flexible work schedule. I can work from home whenever necessary and my job does not require a lot of meetings for periods of time, so I would be attentive. I provide long walks as I go on runs and walks myself everyday. I can provide light training and will always follow your personal rules you have with your pets.
