“Rainie was FANTASTIC! She took great care of my dog, cat, house and garden when I had some recent long distance travel. She provided my husky with off-site adventure walks. Her regular updates included great photos and daily recaps. Coming home to a super tidy house was the cherry on top! I highly recommend Rainie!!”

“We could not have asked for a better house and dog sitter. From the moment she stepped in, it was clear how thoughtful and proactive she is — she even offered to water our plants and help with any cleaning while we were away, which was completely above and beyond. Knowing our home was in such capable, caring hands gave us total peace of mind. Most importantly, our dog Gerty absolutely adored her. Every photo update had Gerty smiling from ear to ear, and that alone told us everything we needed to know. It’s clear she truly cares about the animals she looks after, not just their routines but their happiness too. We are beyond grateful and will 100% be asking for her help again in the future. If you’re lucky enough to book her, do it — your home and pets will be better for it.”

“We are so grateful for Armani! We had a last minute trip come up, just before a longer pre-planned trip we had already scheduled with Armani, and she was so accommodating to stay with our dog on this short notice! We couldn’t be more grateful for the kind and thoughtful care she shared with our dog - it is a comfort to know our dog is in such good hands while we are gone. Armani is a lovely houseguest and the complete professional - we can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“Caitlin did a wonderful job with Kobe and Xena. She kept me well informed on their status, and shockingly Xena, my cat, actually slept with her one night. Xena is picky! All went well and we definitely will use Caitlin if we leave town again this summer. Thank you Caitlin.”

“Cyan is an incredible dog sitter. She immediately won the heart of our little pup, and was so loving with him. Cyan is a great communicator and is amazingly intuitive about the needs of pets and humans alike!”

“James is an awesome dog and house sitter! He took the dogs on great walks and sent us some adorable pictures while we were away. We came home to two happy, calm pups and a clean, orderly house. Highly recommend!”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve never had a formal job with animals, but I’ve grown up around them and have helped with a myriad of different roles for friends, family, neighbors, etc. I have never met a dog or cat that I don’t love! I work full-time in Hanover from Monday through Friday. However, I am more than happy to fit in care before or after the work day. I am also available on weekends! My schedule is as follows: Monday: 9:30 am - 5:30 pm Tuesday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm Wednesday: 7:30 am - 3:30 pm Thursday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm Friday: 8:30 am - 4:30/5:00 pm I am a very thoughtful, caring, and detail-oriented person. I intend on listening to my clients’ desires and doing everything in my power to make sure the pet(s) receive everything they need!
“We needed to find a house/dog sitter for the weekend due to an unexpected situation and Kim was great. She responded quickly and was able to meet me and the pups same day. She was personable and I felt very comfortable leaving her to watch my home and pups. She was very communicative through the weekend, sent lots of pictures, and even left us a sweet welcome home gift and note. 10/10 would recommend and use again.”


“We highly recommend Nicole. We had the absolute best experience with her and would 100% book her again. She has SO much dog knowledge and experience, and she knew just what to do to care for our 17.5 year-old geriatric Miniature Dachshund. Our dog was completely comfortable and happy with her, and she brought out the absolute best in our dog with both a stroller and regular walk. I can't rave enough about how happy we were with Nicole.”

About: I grew up with dogs. I had my own since I had my own place. I had a Siberian Husky and a Shiba Inu at the same time so I am no stranger to noise, stubbornness and cute shenanigans. I work full time in West Lebanon NH. I’m usually free around 4:00pm onward for week days and completely open on Weekends. Perfect you to enjoy a date night or have a weekend away! I’ll come to your place so your fur baby feels more at ease without a change of environment. Love talking walking and playing outside with pups, taking them to the dog park is always a treat.
“Allaire was wonderful! Communicative and easy to work with. Her beautiful dog Baloo met our boys (1 dog & 1 cat) before the stay and everyone got along beautifully! I'd highly recommend Allaire and can't wait to have her stay with our boys again.”
“Ronan was an excellent communicator. From start to finish this was a smooth & pleasant experience. Odin (our dog) was in good spirits when we picked him up. He played well with Ronan's family dog, and must have had a calm and enjoyable overnight in their home, because he was calm and happy upon returning home. Thank you, Ronan!”

About: I have had a dog for alot of my life and have also been counted on to watch family pets over the years. I love dogs and cats, they just bring so much joy to my day I currently work 730-4 and can walk during lunch or before and after work. I can also stay at your home if that works well. I am happy to be flexible to help your pet with their needs! I am more than happy to hang out with your pet in home and take for long walks as o love to be active! I’m super flexible - whatever is best for your pet!
“Sandra was excellent with our pup! She was very attentive to her needs, and kept us up to date with how she was doing and provided great pictures. We will definitely be requesting her in the future and highly recommend her services.”

About: Dogs bring such joy! I believe they are gifts and we are lucky to have them in our lives. We currently have a spoiled Australian Shepherd. I have learned so much as an Aussie mom, and love sharing helpful info with other dog parents, especially if they have a herding breed. I love all dogs, no exceptions! They deserve to be spoiled and appreciated for who they are. I offer pet care in your home, where your pet is most comfortable. I also have my own pet care insurance. I work full time in the upper valley and have a flexible schedule that allows me to work from home several days a week. If you have WiFi, I’m happy to work from your home to accommodate full-time snuggles and care for your pet while you’re away! I believe that dogs are part of the family. I love spending time with them, walking with them and helping them to socialize. They are gifts!
