Dog Boarding North Conway

“Kate & John were amazing with my dad’s dog, Walter! He is an anxious boy, and they made sure he felt at home, and got him settled right in. Their dogs, Theo and Luna, were very friendly and welcomed him with happy tails and they had a lot of fun together. They took him on adventures to a brook, walking trails and lots of playing fetch. They were very responsive and communicative which put my nervous dad at ease and he was able to enjoy his vacation worry free. It is very apparent that this family enjoys welcoming other dogs into their home and caring for them, we highly recommend Kate & John!”

About: Hi, I'm Kaitlin! I've been caring for pets for 20+ years to my own pets, as well as caring for and spoiling others. I currently have three dog-savvy indoor only cats, 2 “house dogs”, and I treat every pet I sit for like my own. I have children in my home (ages range from 16 – 4) who have all grown up with both cats and dogs and are well versed in respecting their personal space. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, with flexible scheduling to fit last-minute requests and regular routines alike. Whether your pet needs a quiet, cage-free home base, a midday potty break, or overnight company so they're never alone, I'm happy to tailor my care to what works best for them. A few things that set my care apart: - If your pet uses a crate at home, or if they tend to get anxious or chew things when unattended, I do ask that a crate is provided for overnight bookings. I do not have a spare crate on hand. One of my family dogs is crated at night, one is not. - While I do not currently have a fenced-in yard, I do live on a private dead-end road in a quiet neighborhood. We do not have heavy traffic and can walk for as long as necessary to tucker your pup out. - Daily photos of your pet for check-in purposes, or if they’re just being cute. - Experience with puppies and young dogs. - Competitive, transparent rates — no surprise fees. - Bonus: I also have experience with chickens and freshwater aquariums and can accommodate check-in visits to refresh water and feed if I am provided with a feeding schedule. I have a flock of my own and have sat for friends over the last 8+ years. I can provide references if necessary. My pets are up to date on their vaccinations and flea preventatives. I have homeowners insurance, additional insurance, am well versed in loving on pets, and committed to being reliable and responsive — you'll always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'd love to meet you and your pet for a free Meet & Greet before your first booking! My husband and I both currently work from home Monday through Friday and can provide constant supervision and attention to our furry guests. If your pet prefers a quiet environment as opposed to the hustle and bustle of family life, we do have the ability to provide quieter settings. As mentioned above, if your pet requires a crate to feel safe and secure, we have the experience to accommodate that as necessary. We do not have extra crates at this time, so for overnight bookings we do ask that their crate is provided to us, but we do have the space in our home to accommodate that. All outdoor trips are on-leash as we do not have a fenced yard at this time, however we can provide long walks to adequately tire your pup out. I love taking photos of my own pets, so if that offers peace of mind to our guests, I am more than happy to oblige. A meet and greet before a booking is preferred to ensure our dogs can get along. My dogs are both neutered/spayed and have not had any experiences with aggression towards other dogs. They do get excited, but quickly calm down once the initial introduction is over. Our dogs are not left unattended/uncrated with guests unless absolutely necessary. If we needed to leave the house quickly for whatever reason, you would be notified and your dog would come with us to remain under our supervision at all times. In-home visits and/or care- I am careful and aware of not letting pets outdoors unless explicitly told to do so. I have indoor only cats so I understand how important it is to check the cracks for sneaky paws and noses before opening doors. I do not wander around the home; it is strictly in and out, fill water and food as necessary, clean litter boxes, and spend a little time sitting on the kitchen floor to offer attention and pets (when the animal permits it). Your space is private, and I am honored to have your trust in caring for both your pets and your home.

“Rebecca was great. I have a difficult dog and she was able to handle him without incident. She's got a beautiful place and is conscientious and attentive and very responsible/safety-minded. This came as a great relief to us, as we take car and road danger very seriously. She is also clearly empathetic and cares about her animals. I highly recommend her.”

“Alina took great care of our dog while we were away for a few days. She sent lots of photos and updates. We would recommend her to others, and we happily use her for sitting again if we are back in the area.”

“Jessica and her family were lifesavers! They took our two dogs last minute and loved on them so well. They did such a good job of integrating our dogs and sending lots of pictures during their stay. Our dogs came back so happy.”

Tanisha Soo & John M.

“Grace was fantastic! She watched our boy for our wedding weekend and sent us pictures through the weekend and even brought him to us at our venue to get pictures with us. She made sure she had all of the info she needed and had us meet the other pups our dog would be with for the weekend before hand to make sure everyone was comfortable and the dogs would get along. Our dog is our world and we are particular about who we leave him with and we will definitely be having Grace watch him in the future!”

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 have two 40lb lab mix pups: Ruby, who is almost 3, and Pax is 1.5. They are both very sweet and love 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 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. 🐾 We just got an invisible fence- so if your dog is familiar with that, we have 1.5 acre yard of invisible freedom to roam! 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. 🐾 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 with an invisible fence system- 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 2 pups 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.

“We were so lucky to find Emily to care for our dog, Sonny, while we hiked the Lake of the Clouds Hut in August. From the moment we arrived, we knew he was in the best hands. Emily has a warm, welcoming home with plenty of outdoor space for dogs to play and explore. She took Sonny on walks, played ball with him, and even brought him swimming—which he loved! Emily kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, giving us complete peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. Sonny was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we would absolutely trust Emily with him again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for loving, attentive care for their dog.”

“Eliot was great! Her communication and regular updates were appreciated. It seemed like Buck and Pnut had a great stay. Would recommend Eliot for boarding!”

“Mia was amazing with our dogs! The dogs loved her, and she them! Baxter our oldest can be slow to warm up, but not with Mia! Thank you so much!”

Danielle R.

“I’m very pleased with Susan and her husband. They went out of their way and were very patient with my sometimes anxious dogs. The kind of dog people you want to leave your babies with! Will definitely use again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs for to 20+ years in many different capacities including but not limited to daycare, grooming, training, veterinary kennel technician, in-home pet sitting. I have impeccable references upon request that will confirm my experience. Senior/puppy care available. All ages! I am retired and available upon demand. Dogs are my passion and my references will confirm this. I can come to you or your dog can come to me. Overnight stays will be in my pet-safe home. I have a safe fenced in pen for playtime. I live in the country with many walking paths available for the dogs to exercise and I have a large back yard. I live with my Blackmouth Cur rescue dog and our newly acquired Jack Russell Terrier pup. They both love playing with 'fur-friends'. I will closely monitor your pet while in my care as I am retired and stay with the dogs 24/7. Rest assured!

“Amazing. Great communications. On time. Happy dog!”

“Christina was really great with Cosmo and is experienced in dog behaviour and handling. I was nervous as Cosmo hasn't stayed in a kennel before but she handled it great and Cosmo had a great time! She was detailed in asking questions to ensure she had all the information to provide the best care for him.”

About: To those who don't know me already my name is Duffy and for the last five years I have worked in both Daycare, Boarding, Training and as a Veterinarian assistant/tech taking care of more then a hundred dogs and cats in a single day. I have helped in training new puppies all the way to helping care for our senior pets, while giving owners peace of mind that while they are away, they know that no matter what part of life their pet might be in, that they will be cared for by someone with experience and love for their pet. I currently work part time at a veterinary clinic in order to gain more knowledge and experience when it comes to pet care in case of any emergency that may arrive. At this time my availability for boarding is between Wednesday-Sunday. I am also flexible on longer stays if needed for trips upon request. I have a fully fenced in yard for your pet to play in and be to be kept safe. I have two dogs that are under 25lbs and are 10 years and older. Depending on your pets age and play style they may or may not be interested in playing but can coexist. If your pet is dog aggressive, that is not a problem since I live in a home with two floors and can keep them separated without any worry of them having a problem.

“Jennifer has been super accommodating and flexible with my crazy schedule. She was great with my dogs and was able to work with my older girls dominant attitude.”

Rachel M.

“We were so relieved to find Celeste as we were new to the area and had been using the same sitter for years as our dog is far too anxious when left in kennels. Sula had a great time, got to play and run with lots of other dogs. Celeste was great with her and sent lots of pictures and updates. We know we had a happy and tired dog when we picked her up. Celeste was also super flexible when we had to modify our booking through no fault of our own. We definitely recommend and will be using her again next time we travel.”
