“Jessica was great with our pup!! Will definitely be using her again!!”


“Faith took excellent care of our dog. After 5 days away, we could tell when we walk in our door how well it went; Copper was happy and content, not stressed, anxious + lonely. Faith sent photos + videos making it clear that she was playing with Copper + giving her lots of attention. She is training to be a Vet Tech and that was a big plus for us when trying to pick which dog sitter. She knows how to handle rescue dogs (ours was a stray from Georgia). We are in our 70's and she is young and full of energy...she could really keep up with our 6 yr old pooch! We couldn't have found anyone better than Faith and we will not hesitate to call on her again to take care of our baby!”


“I have used Rover for years, and Erin has been by far the best dog sitter I have had the pleasure to work with. She house sat my 14-year-old Yorkie, Molly, for a week. Molly, in addition to being an elderly little one that requires daily oral meds, suffers from separation anxiety. She’s an extremely picky eater that tends to mope around and not eat when I have to go out of town and can’t take her with me. Erin kept my little girl company and was as sweet and kind to her as if she had known Molly for ages! She medicated Molly as instructed, took her for her little old lady slow walks around the yard, and sent me lots of updates and pictures. Erin was not only amazing with my Molly, but she was also very respectful of my house and even offered to wait for me to be home before leaving in case there were any issues with my flights. She genuinely cared for my fur baby, and that meant the world to me.”


“Alissa was very good with communicating. I had to cancel last minute, unexpected health issues. She was so understanding. I will contact her for any future appointments!”


“Dawn was wonderful with our dogs while we were away. Quincy and Zoey just loved her. They were so relaxed with her. I would highly recommend her. I would definitely have her watch my dogs again.”


About: I have worked as an animal sitter since graduating from college in 2010. We lost our two adopted dogs this year at the ripe old ages of 17 and 14 and have not brought any new indoor pets into our home. I have volunteered with animals and worked in a veterinary setting with large animals (horses mostly!) I graduated with a degree in animal sciences. I am well equipped for special needs dogs with a large dog stroller and wheelchair! I work outside of the home 4 days a week and am home Friday through Sunday to spend as much time with your pet as they need! I love to run, so if you have a high-energy dog, then reach out to me! We can wear each other out. Our home is dog friendly with a large fenced in yard with indoor access for dogs that prefer to make their own indoor/outdoor schedule. We love to have pups and cats snuggle on the couch with us or play in our large yard. We have farm animals, lots of new smells and places to explore!

About: We are a physically fit couple who both grew up with dogs. We have fostered puppies and older dogs from rescues and have pet sat/walked up to 3 dogs at a time. We have lots of experience pet sitting for all ages and sizes over the last 13 years. We love everything from dog cuddles to hiking and swimming adventures. We also have experience with puppy and dog training. We just moved back to New Hampshire from Montana and are currently very flexible with our schedules while we are getting settled and are in between jobs. We are physically active and try to spend lots of time outdoors or go to the gym when possible. We try to keep eating, bathroom, and exercise routines consistent with what the dogs are used to and owners want, while adding in extra play, exercise, cuddles, and anything else needed to make a pup comfortable and happy based on their age, health, dog type, and mentality.

“We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Trie provided for our 13-year-old Maltipoo. He has a tough time with separation anxiety and often struggles with eating when we're away, but Trie was absolutely incredible with him. She stayed by his side, took him on several walks a day, and knew exactly how to encourage him to eat. Trie sent us frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. For the first time, we were able to truly relax on vacation knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. She is incredibly sweet, gentle, kind, and attentive — exactly the kind of person you’d hope to find to care for your pet. We’ll definitely be booking with her again for any future travel!”


“Sienna did a great job taking care of our pups. She left the house the same way she found it and even though we just used her for an overnight she took the dogs for a few walks and sent a bunch of pics of the pups so we knew they were in good hands. Will def use her again!”


About: I have 4 years of experience taking care of dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. And 4 years experience taking care of cats and being a cat owner myself! I work as a self employed artist, so my schedule is completely flexible to meet yours and your furry friends needs. I can do pop ins and longer stays. I am dependable on whatever your furry friends need, whether its a walk, a fresh water and food refill, or a cuddle buddy, I am there with kindness.

“Meagan was fantastic! She took great care of our little guy, allowing us to take part in a family event without worrying. She was proactive in setting up a meet and greet a couple of days before and was prompt and kind. We'll be asking her back in the future for sure! Thanks Meagan:”


“Tara was great - she gave us updates/photos throughout the weekend and our house was pristine when we returned home. Will absolutely use her next time we need a dog sitter.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember dogs, cats even bunnies and guinea pigs, i love animals they are gentle and sweet and easy to talk to. I’m currently a stay at home mom to my little one year old so I am always available days nights or weekends whenever you need. If bringing your animals here I can provide bowls for food and water you can bring your own if you would like. It’s a pretty open concept house, we have locks on cabinets so your little fur balls can’t get in

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire childhood, I have experience working with dogs at a boarding kennel and daycare. I own a great dane myself so size does not intimidate me. I have given dogs baths, nail trims, medication by mouth and medication by syringe, along with feeding and walking all types of dogs. I currently have a very open schedule, as of right now I am extremely flexible to dog sit or walk when requested. I can give your animal plenty of attention and care. I provide reliable and experienced dog care tailored to your pet’s needs. With a background in a boarding kennel and daycare, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments—including giant breeds like my own Great Dane. Whether your dog needs feeding, walks, playtime, or just companionship, I ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for while you’re away.

“Laura was professional, caring and timely. She was great with my dog Duke.”


“Excellent communication before and during her stay. We recently moved to the area and didn't realize how much information our past sitter "just knew" Amanda asked questions to get answers to instructions I didn't think to give. Her attention to detail is the foundation that the exceptional care she provided our crew on. Couldn't be happier with her service and care.”


About: I have owned animals all my life and have plenty of enrichment activities- snuffle matts, snuffle balls, puzzle toys, regular toys, and a big yard to play in! I love animals and this is currently a full time job for me being a pet sitter and owner. I make my dog my life and we go for walks and adventures daily. I make a schedule for my own dog, which includes puzzle toys for breakfast, an afternoon walk or adventure, snuffle mats and balls for later, and plenty of cuddles throughout the day!

“Took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated on how things were going and sent pictures. Very responsive and responsible. Definitely would recommend Kimberly and will use her again!”
