About: I am a dedicated, attentive dog mom to my boy, Dobby, who is 10 years old. I adopted him when he was 8 weeks old and spent many hours training him to be the incredible dog he has always been. I have been a dog sitter on an overnight-basis for about 20 years now and have even more experience with care on a daily or drop-in basis for feeding, walking, playing or simply just some love and attention. I believe my love and compassion for not only my own dog but all dogs translates well into the meticulous care I provide. I have a proven track record of forming bonds with dogs of all shapes, sizes and breeds and I look forward to becoming buddies with yours! I work from home on a freelance/contract basis so pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine. My schedule is flexible as a graphic designer and web developer so I will easily be able to fit your pet into my schedule. Safety and comfort of the dog are my top concerns and I take them very seriously. To address these needs, I go over what your dog is used to when you are home (i.e. set feed times, set walking route, specific leash requirements, schedule, etc.) and what your typical protocols are then adhere to what your dog is used to as strictly as possible. I believe a safe and comfortable dog is a happy dog and it is my job to ensure that through providing as much familiarity as possible.

About: I’m not just a pet sitter, I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s owned both dogs and cats, studied Animal Science in college, and worked hands-on as a veterinary assistant. I understand pet behavior, health, and comfort, so your pets get care that’s not only loving, but informed and attentive too. 🐾💕 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available most days and happy to accommodate your pet’s routine, special needs, or last-minute requests whenever possible When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, playtime, and medication instructions closely, give plenty of affection and enrichment, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own space. With my background in Animal Science and experience as a veterinary assistant, I’m attentive to health, behavior, and any changes that may need extra care. I also keep your home tidy and provide regular updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in loving, knowledgeable hands.

About: I’ve been helping a friend who has a dog walking business. Sprightly Paws and have enjoyed it so much. We are both members of the Exeter Run Club. My black lab has passed and I miss time spent with dogs. I’m retired and have plenty of time to enjoy walking dogs. Preferably Mon- Fri but sometimes available on weekends. If your dog likes to run, depending on your location I’m happy to run with them. I’m only available for dog walking. I don’t offer any dog sitting or daycare services. I live in Durham,NH right on the Newmarket line.

About: I've lived with, cared for, and loved our furry, feathered, and scaly friends my entire life. Current family includes a Dalmatian and two cats; I'm looking forward to meeting your four-legged family. I work from home and rarely travel, making me an easy choice for local care. I am available weekdays and weekends, any time of the day or night. I will partner with you to set up the exact type of care and companionship YOUR pet needs. I know what works for my brood, and am looking forward to meeting and learning about yours.

About: I have had all different kinds of animals in my life, including dogs, cats, ferrets, farm animals, reptiles, and more. I've taken care of animals ranging from senior dogs to newborn kittens and I've given them all the love that they need. I am available almost any day and time of day! Feel free to take a look at my calendar for my availability! I can't wait to take care of your furry friend(s). I am welcome to help your furry friend in any way you need. I will keep an open line of communication and send plenty of photos so you have the peace of mind knowing your best friend(s) are happy and healthy.

About: I have always taken care of a dog for as long as I can remember! I absolutely adore all animals! I saved up bought my first dog (Maltese poodle) when I was 13. Now I have 2 amazing dogs now!! I’ve always watched/walked dogs for family and friends. I took care of my friends golden doodle almost weekly in college. I work from home so I have a bunch of downtime to help/care for your animal at all times. I love taking the dogs on walks for exercise! It’s always been a huge part of keeping my own dogs healthy. I have a dog friendly apartment with a massive fenced in dog park. I have 2 dogs (Newfoundland and Australian shepherd) who LOVE other animals.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and stay overnight with their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with specific routines or medication needs. I understand how important consistency and patience are, and I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available most weekdays after 2pm and have open availability on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. I’m reliable, punctual, and happy to work with your pet’s specific routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I do not have a fenced in yard but I can accommodate and make your pet comfortable at all times. I can crate your dog if needed and always supervise playtime. I follow feeding schedules carefully and will provide updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. In a client’s home, I respect your space and keep everything clean, secure, and just as you left it.

About: After deciding to not become a Veterinarian and instead purse a career in design, I take any opportunity to be involved with animals! I have volunteered at animal hospitals, shelters, pet sitting etc as I wait for the time to adopt a puppy of my own. I've taken care of puppies, dogs, cats, disabled animals and even reptiles for family and friends of family for years. I'd often be the go-to option for family friends when they needed someone reliable to come check in on their furry family, house-sit for extended trips or drop in to give important prescriptions to pets. Like I have done in the past, I'll always care for your pets as if they are my own - which means even a regular visit for breakfast/dinner means a little play time outside (if applicable) and a few extra belly scratches! Fortunately I am a full-time, remote, self-employed graphic designer so my schedule during the week is very flexible. I can bring my work anywhere too so even if there is work to be done, house-sitting is convenient for me to adapt to and daily visits are an easy addition to my schedule with at least 1 days notice. If your fur babies come to my house for pet-sitting, I have a large fenced in yard to walk them or let them run. With my work from home schedule, I like to get up and stretch my own legs often through the day so many walks around the yard or down the rail trail are possible. Though my apartment is 2 floors, the stairs aren't too steep for our 4-legged friends and they are welcome to roam. At night, if the puppy/dog needs to be in a crate I have the space to accommodate their little portable bedrooms (crate).

“Jessica was great! She’s reliable and was patient with my pup. I requested her help last minute and she was very accommodating. So glad to have found her!”

About: Hi there! I am a student athlete at University of New Hampshire, trying to make some extra money for towards my education! I have been a pet owner my whole life, from hamsters, to fish, to lizards and frogs, to guinea pigs, and lastly to dogs :) Pet Care for me works mostly on weekends but I am totally open to some school nights dependent on my class, practice, and game schedule! I will make sure to take good care of your pets! I will give them plenty of attention, play with them if they will, and of course feed them, freshen up their water, and keep them out of trouble!!

About: My schedule is very specific because of classes and working around work shifts! I’m very communicative and we can work something out that is best for both of us!! I have both personal and professional experience with cats and dogs. I’ve worked with dogs during my time at Essex Tech. I have also have basic experiences with small animals such as rabbits, birds, and reptiles. During my time there I learned the basics of training, grooming and overall behavior. This all led me to have a better grasp at caring for dogs and what their needs are. I have my own cat named Fasa, so I have personal experience with them! He’s the buff kitty in my photos! I have also worked at a doggy daycare located in Salem called Walk A Pup where they strive to provide a safe and enriching environment for the dogs in their care. During those six months, I not only walked dogs but also did basic obedience and evening check-ins at client's homes. I was also briefly a bather at Petsmart where watching behavior is a big aspect. Currently I work there caring for the animals we sell. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified. Working part-time fills in a lot of my time and my schedule is often on a week-by-week basis. My availability varies, so it’s best for you to just message me to find out if my schedule works with yours! At the moment I have my Tuesdays completely free! I know leaving your pet to a stranger is very nerve-wracking and scary. However, I like to reassure you that because of my experience, I am equipped to make sure that your pet has the care they need while you are away for work, vacation, or any other situation. I am more than happy to update you as many times are you need me to. I am also certified in Pet CPR and First aid and have a car that allows me to drive your pet somewhere if something were to happen.

“Kate is wonderful! My dog Charlie was being shy and reluctant to go on a walk but Kate stayed and played with her to keep her company for the duration of the visit!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets in my home since I was little and once I had my license I began pet and house sitting in my area. My favorite is when they need to be walked so we both get exercise and fresh air. I have experience with all kinds of dogs from different backgrounds including rescues! I am a college student in the Durham area who has a pretty flexible schedule during the day through out the week and on most of the weekends. I have had pets my whole life and have been watching pets in other peoples homes for about 5 years. I am comfortable caring for animals in new environments.

“Owen came to walk our big Shepsky while we were out of town. My dog loved him! Owen was reliable, friendly, and clearly really good with dogs. We will definitely use him again in the future! Thank you from Timber and us!”

About: I graduated from college with a degree in Veterinary Technology. I currently work at vet hospital in Maine. I have been with animals all my life. And have two of my own. I work full time so during the week days afternoon potty time will be hard but if they can handle over 6+ hours of being alone then it will work perfectly. I would care for your animal at your house so it will be easier on your animal and not be anxious when at a new place. I will give them lots of cuddles and love. I treat them like they are my own. We will play all sorts of games too.

“Cody was wonderful with our elderly dog, Amelia. So kind and thoughtful, ready to research our particular issues. I highly recommend her, and I will be sure to remember her if I need help in the future. Thank you Cody!! Lisa A.”
