About: Hello! I have been caring for pets since I was a child. I have always had my own cats, dogs, rabbits, and even a hamster. I have a love and passion for caring for animals, so much so that I received my Bachelors Degree in Veterinary Sciences! I have experience working with all types of pets and I enjoy taking care of your fur babies <3. I can easily fit pet care into my schedule. I am a stay at home mom and enjoy spending time caring for animals 🫶🏼. I am available whenever you need me! I have a fenced in yard and would treat your pets with love, as if they were my own. I know how important our pets are to us, and I take animal care very seriously. I can't wait to shower your pet with extra love and hugs while you're away!

“Very sweet person! Totally a dog person!!! Cece was so comforting for us and our puppy, who had never been without us before. It was a big deal that she was communicative while we were away, letting us know she was okay as well sending photos. Last minute acheduling was important for our situation and she was immediately available. We will definitely ask her again if we are in the area and need a sitter.”


“Kristi had our dogs for day while we had a party. She cared for them so we didn’t have to worry. They don’t like being away from home but they did great with her! I wouldn’t hesitate leaving my dogs with her again. And she has had one of them for a week before and was amazing with him sending updates and pictures!!”


“Christina was lovely and accommodating! I was just in the area for several hours and wanted to go out to eat with my friend. She committed the day of and was lovely. My dog is sweet but clingy when nervous and Christina supported her in the mode! Thank you Christina--I swear Willa's more fun than you witnessed. :)”


“We were having a rough day today and despite our best intentions, we were not giving Little Edie our best. Rose came through and made us look like the dog parents that we try to be. We'll be back often, and we will always be grateful for how you saved the day for our best buddy!”


“Gracie seemed to love Mike at first sight! And the feeling was mutual. Mike gives great communication all around, his lovely home and enclosed yard is the perfect setting for my high energy pup.”


“Kathy is fantastic with our golden puppy. We love sending him to her for the day because we know she will take such good care of him. He always leaves her house happy and tired after a day of fun 😊”


“Erin was great & fit us in last minute. Bailey enjoyed her time there. We actually booked 2 back to back days cause of events we were going to. At the second drop off, Bailey perked up as soon as we got on her street like she knew where we were going & was excited to go back.”


About: I love animals of all kinds, but my favorite domesticated animal is a dog. I am known by a lot of my clients and people I know personally as “The Dog Whisperer” I have 2 fur babies of my own who I love more than anything on this green earth. When I am taking care of your fur baby or babies, you can be away peacefully, knowing that they are being loved, cared for, and treated as if they were my own. I say “hi” to dogs before I say “hi” to people. I work 3 minutes from my home and usually get home around 3:20pm the latest. I have every other weekend off. I do have to work most holidays but with planning it will work out. If I’m in your home, I will go by your house rules and go with your dog(s) routine the best I can when I am not working. When I am in my own home, I just ask that you bring whatever it is you would use in a day for your furry baby. Leash, harness, food etc. no need for a crate as I have a couple here if needed.


About: Without exception, the dog park is always one of the best parts of my day. I've had three dogs of my own, and have been around countless other dogs, most of whom instantly become my new best friends. We just gravitate to each other, hence the fuzzy friend whisperer nickname. I have a playful, loving attitude toward every dog I meet. I am also sensitive to dogs who need a little more patience and space to ease into trusting me and respect the boundaries that they need to do that. My training style with my own dogs is focused on positive reinforcement rather than punishment. This approach translates to other dogs as well, unless their owners request differently. Your dog will be in caring, responsible hands with me. They will be loved. Vogel Emergency Vet just opened right across the street from our house, so if anything kind of emergency pops up, your baby will be a hop, skip and a jump away from the care they need. I'm self employed and work mostly from home so my schedule is quite flexible. Sometimes I’ll have drop in visits throughout the day, but if your dog is boarding with me, there will generally be someone else at home with them. They’ll rarely, if ever be left alone. I live on a small farm but also live near a road, so your dog will always be safely on a leash when we go outside for potty breaks. I have a very friendly 12 year old 45lb labradoodle named Huck to keep your baby company in the rare cases that I'm not at home. I have a "squirrel observatory" (bird feeder) right near my workspace so your dog will not only be supervised most of the time but also entertained.

“Emily was great with Stitch! She remained flexible and accommodating to my work schedule. Stitch had a great time and was exhausted every day from playing and getting lots of attention. Will definitely be a repeat customer. Highly recommended!”

“Nicole took great care of my dog during a daycare, and she has a safe and awesome yard. It’s always hard leaving your best friend with a new sitter, but I could tell that my dog had a great day and we will definitely come back to Nicole’s for future daycare and boarding!”


“Kelly took great care of Margot and it seems like she had a good time with Kora (who is a very sweet dog!). When Margot got home she passed out on her bed from all the fun she had. Also Kelly accommodated us when we asked to adjust the drop off time, which is much appreciated!”


“Josh and Nicole were awesome- we were so nervous about leaving our new dog while we went away for over a week, but they made it so easy. They spoiled her just like we would have, sent us constant updates, and kept up with her medications with no issue. They took great care of our cats in our home at the same time as well. Definitely recommend.”


About: For pretty much most of my entire life I’ve had a dog. I gave them all the love I had and they did the same right back at me. Currently we own a beautiful 4yr old Golden named Sammy. He is gentile playful loving and silly. When a dog walks into our home it takes about 30 seconds and just like that Sammys got a new best friend. My business is in insurance sales which has me doing most of my work from home. This allows me to take great care of my dog Sammy and any of his friends. We’ve got a spacious open concept home with a big grassy fenced in back yard for lots of play time. We can also easily crate your dog if needed. Have peace of mind that your doggy will be safe and well cared for by myself as well as Sammy!

“My dog had a great time at Shelby’s house and big back yard. Shelby was very communicative and posted lots of pictures during the stay. When I’m back in the area I will definitely book again!”


About: Looking for a dog sitter or walker who’s truly pawsome? I’m your person! My journey with dogs kicked off at 15, when I started volunteering at the SPCA, walking furry friends every chance I got. The moment I could work at 16, I dove headfirst into the world of doggy daycare, spending six incredible years at Play All Day Doggy Care. There, I became a pro at reading dog body language, diffusing any pack tension, and noticing the little things—like when a pup’s feeling under the weather or just needs a break from the playgroup. By 21, I leveled up to dog trainer, honing my skills at Atlantic K9 for two years. Now, I’m proud to run my own dog training business, working alongside the amazing team at Ridgeside K9 New England. I am a certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator. Dogs aren’t just my job—they’re my passion, and I bring that love and expertise to every wagging tail I meet! I have 3 beautiful dogs of my own, 4 year old golden retriever, 4 year old husky mix and a 6 month old German shepherd As a full-time dog trainer, my schedule is built around furry friends, giving me the perfect flexibility to weave pet care into my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s taking dogs on energizing walks, popping in for quick potty breaks, leading adventure-filled hikes, or hosting fun play sessions, I’m all about keeping pups happy and active. My life revolves around dogs, so caring for them fits seamlessly into my day—every moment is an opportunity to make a tail wag! Whether I’m caring for pets at my home or yours, I’m all about creating a safe, fun, and stress-free environment for every furry guest! At my place, I’ve got two acres of land, with a partially fenced area perfect for dogs to stretch their legs and explore. My three friendly pups are kept separate from client dogs unless there’s a perfect playmate match—and only with the owner’s enthusiastic approval. When I’m at a client’s home, clear and consistent communication is my top priority to ensure their fur babies feel right at home. From cozy cuddles to lively playtime, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs, making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and wagging their tails!

Jacky C.
“Whenever Jacky see's a dog she has to point him/her out and go say hi. She has volunteered at the animal shelter in Gloucester for a few months, and when you think of her you think of her dog Scotti. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a good time for your dog while you are away. Your dog will have so much love and attention that when you pick him/her up they will be warn out from all the walking. Jacky loves walking and whenever it is nice out that is most likely what she will be doing with her dog. She will treat your dog as if they were her own. Anything you need from her she will do her absolute best to make it happen.”

Symantha W.
“Symantha is a great dog sitter, trainer and walker. Ive had her let my dogs out, pick them up from boarding and take them for walks. She is assertive and great with all dog personalities. My 2 dogs are not dog friendly and she takes extra measures to avoid contact with other dogs and makes sure my dogs are never put in an uncomfortable situation. I trust symantha with my dogs and it allows me to relax on vacations and overnight trips. Ive seen her interact with many dogs and she always impresses me.”
