Pet Sitting in Kearsarge

About: Honest, Experienced, Reliable pet sitting and care. We take great pride in forming a bond with each pet we take care of. This is something that we love doing and will love yours like our own. As an added bonus you should get a few great photos of your favorite creature! We have taken care of Dogs, Cats, Parrots, Turtles, Fish, Chickens, Ducks, Goats, Pigs, Horses, worms, snails, etc. If you have some fun and interesting animals we would love to come, meet you and them, and take care of them while you are out of town, or just at work! We welcome pets that love to snuggle in bed, elderly pets, as well as difficult and anxious pets. Sometimes our posted rates don’t meet your special needs pets, and appreciate your patience in the negotiation process. You will get the best available and individualized care of your pets in our home, or yours. Daily updates along with photos and videos of your pet, and have the peace of mind they are being loved and cared for just like you would at your own home. We welcome training opportunities, and can continue treat and/or clicker training and potty training as well. My husband worked at a local Donkey rescue and I have been rescuing Strays since 1985. We both just love and care for animals. The nitty gritty details: We only watch pets from 1 family at a time. This lessens the stress on them, and us, and allows us to give them the BEST care possible. This also costs a bit more. Our time is valuable, as we know yours does as well. While we are capable of hosting multiple pets, we choose to focus our time and care on your families pets 1 at a time. We do require a meet and greet, and sometimes a “trial run” for certain breeds, elderly pets, or pets we will be watching for over 2 days. In most circumstances this is NOT required, but we do want to meet those who are known to have separation anxiety, barking issues, food aggression or aggression in general, have high energy needs, special diets and medications and any pet that doesn’t do well with strangers. Day care pets during the week do need to be fairly well mannered, and not have barking and/or major anxiety issues. Drop off before 8:00am and Pick-Ups after 8:00pm will be charged an additional $10 per hour. Pets not picked up within 15 minutes of the scheduled pick up window will be charged an additional $20/hr. I currently work full time remote, so will have plenty of time to play and care for your pets! We have a regular schedule of play time, including walking or outdoor time every 2-4 hours for 15-30 minutes. We have a fully fenced backyard, and ALWAYS leash ALL pets when outside our yard. We have had several “runners”, corgis and cats that want to bolt for the first sign of freedom… or squirrels/birds etc. We take great caution to make sure your pet is safe at ALL times.

“Eliot did an exceptional job with Nala - calming her nerves and making her feel comfortable! Nala was apprehensive at first by Eliot did a wonderful job of using her experience to take care of her. She also did a wonderful job of communicating and sending pictures — I definitely recommend and use her again !”

About: As a pet lover, I know they’re not just pets — they’re family. That’s why I’ll give your pets the absolute best care, just like I would my own. I’ve pet sat during the day and overnight, and I’ve walked and checked in on pets several times. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs. What sets me apart is that I’ve owned a variety of pets throughout my life — dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles. I’m also always willing to learn and adapt to make sure your pets get the care they deserve. My main job is seasonal, so I’m currently free at the moment to help any pet owners during the busy summer months. Check my calendar for my flexible hours! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll work closely with you to understand their needs and make sure they’re cared for with the same love and attention you’d give — even while you’re away.

About: I have a personalized approach and am dedicated to meeting the unique needs of every furry friend. With extensive experience in training puppies and providing specialized care for senior pets, I ensure that each animal receives the attention and support they deserve. My ability to tailor activities and routines to suit individual personalities and requirements sets me apart, creating a comfortable and enriching experience for pets under my care. From basic obedience training to gentle senior companionship, I'm committed to providing top-notch care that fosters trust and happiness for both pets and their owners. I am Pet First Aid & CPR Certified. I live in a private association and have a sizable, secluded yard that borders a stream and pond. Since I work remotely from home four days a week and have summers off, pet care seamlessly integrates into my routine. Each morning, I dedicate time to feeding, walking and playing with my pets before diving into work tasks. Throughout the day, I take short breaks to ensure they receive attention and exercise. During the summer months, I have the flexibility to extend our outdoor adventures and spend quality time bonding with them on the the trails or swimming. Regular grooming sessions, vet appointments, and training sessions are also scheduled into my weekly agenda to ensure their overall well-being. Essentially,d pets are an integral part of my daily and weekly rhythms. I provide pets with a quiet space, leash walks in safe areas, and separate feeding spots to ensure comfort and safety. I integrate visiting pets with my own for socialization and play. Opportunity for off-leash adventures for dogs with great recall. I have a sizable, secluded yard away from traffic.

“Dawn was very professional and timely. She did a great job taking care of our cat while we were away. I would book Dawn again for pet care and drop in visits. Thank You!”

About: I grew up with dogs, since I can remember, I was watching all of my neighbors dogs before I was even old enough to work. I have no problem, administrating medication‘s, or even giving them a bath or doing their nails. I love animals so much that one day I hope to grow up and have a big piece of land so that I can hold a sanctuary for all the animals I can give a good home too and rehabilitate. This is my full-time job watching your loved ones and helping out in anyway I can so I am fully and completely at your disposal. I have an un fence yard currently so unless you’re comfortable with having them be off the leash I’ll take them for a walk or to a dog park with your permission. I don’t mind animals on my furniture, but if I were in your home and that’s not cool with you, just let me know. All I wanna do is provide comfort and enjoyment while giving you the ability to relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Amy was personable and professional, and she kept in touch with photo updates when we were away. I believe our sweet kitty was well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.”

“Second time we have used Jen. Could not be more pleased. Great communication, pets are happy and healthy, and she does exactly what she says she will. Thank you Jen. You release the stress of having to leave our pets.”

About: I attended a technical high school, focusing in Vet Science but am now studying Health Science with a minor in Global health, and plan to continue onto my masters in Health Informatics! I Grew up around animals and caring for them! I have experience with all types of animals from household, small, large, and even exotics. I also have experience administering oral and injection medication. I have 2+ years of paid experience during high-school working on campus caring for the animals we had as a co-op job and gained lots of experience. Im not currently working in the animal field as im focusing on school, but looking to make some extra money during my free time while also being outside! Currently a server at the Jackson Collection. My schedule tends to be different ranging mostly mornings until about 12:30. I work occasional nights aswell but can discuss further if booked depending on my schedule that week. Either way, I have the majority of the day free with my two off days usually being Monday/Tuesday. I am currently enrolled at Plymouth state, so I offer no boarding/daycare, but I am willing to do stop in at your house! I can come let dogs out, feed them, give them exercise/walks at your location and more!

About: Hey dog parents! My name is Jane and I have extensive experience as a full-time pet boarder and sitter when I was based in Nashville, as seen from my reviews! I loved it so much, but I also front a rock band, and our touring schedule has prevented me from pet-sitting consistently for the past couple of years. I also live in a converted campervan with my fiance Ian (a fellow dog lover as well). We will be bouncing around the northeast area for the summer and fall, so we will be available to care for your pet! :) Having our own space in the van works great for house sitting because we can park outside your home, but we don't have to use your kitchen or bedroom, while still spending most of the day in your home with your pet. The perfect blend of boundaries and creating a stable environment for your pet! But of course, if you have a pet that prefers to have someone sleep in the house (it's happened MANY times before) we can keep the schedule they are used to. We don't mind dogs in bed if that is what they are used to. It is all about keeping life consistent for your babe. I have always been a dog lover and grew up with a golden retriever, Honeymoon. Making sure dogs feel comfortable and loved is so important to me! Being in a small space and touring in a band prevents us from getting our own pup, but we would love to help care for yours! We are self-employed so our schedule is very fluid. We would work on our laptops in your home, being with your pet most of the day! I love taking walks, so it is no problem to give your dog regular exercise! Playtime and cuddling are always a must to make your dog feel loved and ease anxiety while you are away!

“So amazing with taking care of my kitties and helping me out while I was away. Communication was excellent and the cats just loved her. I can’t wait to have her help again in the future, and neither can the cats!”

“It was great to meet Brittany! She is super knowledgeable about dogs and we are excited to work with her!”

“Levi is an amazing cat sitter. He developed a great relationship with our cats and sent us photos and a synopsis of his visits that made us quite comfortable leaving them in his care. He is the very best of the best. You could not do better!”

About: 🐾 Need a place for your furry friends to hang for the day? Overnight care? Visiting the area and want a safe place to leave your dog for an afternoon of two? Going on vacation? Regular day care while you are at work? Playtime and exercise? Walking and check/ins? I can do that! 💕 I currently have one 30lb lab mix, Ruby, who is a year old- she is very sweet- loves other dogs and people! 🐾 We go on at least one long walk in the woods on our property every day- sometimes adventuring to the river for a dip, or out on the local, less-popular hiking trails. We know all the secret spots ; ) 💕 I love having a little dog pack around, and love watching them play and run together. I believe in providing plenty of outdoor time for playing, sniffing, exploring, listening to nature, or sitting in the sun- whatever your dog needs to be happy! I will meet them where they are at to ensure they are comfortable in a new environment. Leashes will be used until we are sure it’s fine to take them off. 🐾 Trained in basic doggie 101-we usually have basic manners and recall in practice for healthy treats and affection-especially for puppies- and can provide a crate, comfy couch or bed if your pup needs a space to retreat. 💕 My only requirement for care in my home is that your dog must get along with other dogs and cats. I will gate the stairs to keep some separation, so if your dog is “cat curious” but intimidating, they will all have their own space to relax. 🌟 Local residents of Chatham, Conway and Fryeburg looking for regular care (3 or more days a week) please reach out about joining the “Wolf Pack” for discounts/ local rates! 🌟 🐾 I work from home mostly, and have a flexible schedule. Pet care is perfect for my lifestyle! 🌲 We are outside a ton- gardening, hiking, xc skiing, swimming- adventuring on our property and in the surrounding National Forest. 🐾 I would prefer dogs that are good off-leash and have good social skills- I will always keep your dog on leash if I feel they are not okay otherwise. I only take 3 at a time the most, in-addition to my own pup. We live on a very private property with an open yard offering plenty of space to run and play. We have a comfy animal-friendly couch and a screened-in porch with a queen-size bed for your pups to nap outside without being “loose”. I have one pup who will be happy to keep your pup company! They will be able to go in and out freely in a natural home setting, (as long as they are okay off leash) and your dog will be cared for like our own. If I visit your home, I would typically have my dog with me to play with yours- unless you specify otherwise. Each visit would be an hour of play and affection, outdoor time, feeding, water, etc.

About: I have been pet sitting for a long time now and even made it my summer job in college. My goal is to give your pet plenty of love and attention to make them feel comfortable. I have a 2 year old mini schnauzer who loves all dogs of all sizes and he will make sure your pet has plenty of play time that when you get home they are tired. I work fully remote so I am always home. I have a yard out front and then snowmobile trails behind my apartment where we can go for long walks. I work fully remote from home and will always be around :) I am usually up around 6:30 am and go to bed around 10/10:30 pm I offer a lot of love and attention to all pets. I love taking my dog out a few times a day and make sure he gets at least a couple long walks. I have a living room for them to play or my yard out front is just as great. My doors are always closed and I live in a safe area of Fryeburg and live on a dead end road. I promise your animal will get more attention not just from me but from my dog.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience and specialized skills tailored to meet the unique needs of pets at different life stages. I have a strong background in training, including basic obedience, housebreaking, and socialization. My methods are gentle and positive, ensuring a stress-free learning environment for your pet. These skills, combined with a genuine love for animals and a commitment to their well-being, make me a reliable and exceptional choice for pet sitting. I am available for sitting during the mornings and afternoons. I am also available during the entire day on weekends to have fun with the animals! Pets stay in their comfortable, known environment, reducing stress. I follow your established routines for feeding, walking, and playtime. I ensure your home remains secure and tidy during my visits.

About: I’ve looked after all kinds of pets, from playful puppies to older dogs who just want cozy snuggles. I’m great at following routines, whether that’s giving medication, sticking to a diet, or making sure they get plenty of walks and playtime. What makes me different is the care and attention I give—I really take the time to make sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and safe. I’m dependable, easygoing, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos so you always know how your pet is doing! Caring for pets is something I naturally fit into my day—it never feels like “extra work” because I love it. I make time for walks, play, and cuddles around my schedule, and I’m flexible to make sure each pet gets the attention they need. Spending time with animals is honestly one of the best parts of my day! In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine so they feel safe and comfortable—whether that’s feeding on a set schedule, giving meds, going for walks, or just spending time playing and keeping them company. I always leave things clean and tidy, just like I found them. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they have a cozy, safe space, plenty of love and attention, and lots of walks and playtime. No matter where they are, I treat every pet like part of the family.

About: Hi! I live in Conway, NH with my partner and our menagerie of pets! We currently have furry family members consisting of 5 dogs, 3 cats, a guinea pig named Sid and 3 birds! I was raised with a variety of pets and have taken care of animals my entire life. I cannot imagine life without them. As someone who understands what it is like to have pets and also someone who has lived all over the country and traveled extensively, I understand how valuable and difficult it is to find someone to take care of your pets that you can trust. I won’t price gouge you, and I will listen to your instructions, needs, and desires in a sitter. I am able to administer medicine since I do for my own pets, small animals and big ones alike. I would love to meet your furry family member and assure you that your mind can be at ease when I am with them! *Please note that we do not accept boarding in our home. I don’t mind staying at your house though need be! My preference is to watch dogs, but I can work with cats as well. Currently, I have full time availability! I would love to make caring for your pets my current full time opportunity! I am flexible and can stay overnights as well, as long as they work with my family’s schedule. We have gates on both our upper and lower levels that help acclimate new pets to ours. We also have a fully fenced in yard with another large area of unfenced play space and walking space. We live on a dead end so we have a nice small walking loop as well and our neighborhood is quiet.

“Thank you Jenn!!”

About: My boyfriend and I currently have our lovely golden retriever, Sky and Blue Heeler mix named Stella. We have both grown up with and taking care of family dogs and cats. I will be the one taking care of your pet but Tyler will be around the house. We enjoy hiking, exercising and enjoying the outdoors with our pets. Both Tyler and I treat Sky and Stella as if they were our children. Sky is very well trained and great with other dogs and animals. Stella us young, full of energy and a great play partner. Sky has taught Stella the ways around the house and has turned her into an amazing companion as well. I am available for pet care week days and some weekends. I am between jobs right now so I spend a lot of time at home. I have a large unfenced yard. I allow my dogs to run free in the yard but would be more than happy to leash any dog necessary. I have a run outside that is available is your dog is used to that. We feed our pups every night around 6 and in the morning around 6 or upon awakening- very flexible on feeding times. Bathroom time is whenever requested from the dogs and after eating meals. At night time we have plenty of room in the house for a crate if needed or in their bed if that is what is preferred.
