“Judy and Rosie are awesome! Our Nala had the best time with Judy, Rosie and her family! Judy sent us pictures and updates gave our Nala plenty of walks, outside run time, and family love! So grateful not to worry about our pup while we were away. We would definitely book with Judy again!”

“Swift, Brian, family were amazing with our two dogs! They sent lots of photos throughout the weekend and responded quickly. We will definitely be using them again and highly recommend!”

“Haley was absolutely amazing! She was able to accommodate us last minute, which was such a relief. From the very beginning, her communication was outstanding—she kept me updated regularly, which gave me so much confidence that my dog was happy and well cared for. Her own dog is super chill and friendly, and the welcoming atmosphere created by her other family members made my dog feel right at home. Even though I didn’t know Haley very well at first, her attentiveness and warm family setting made it clear my dog was in great hands. I highly recommend Haley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”

“Alicia and her sweet family welcomed Ollie into their home for a 10 day stay. This was Ollie's first stay away from home and Alicia did her best to make him feel safe and comfortable during his stay. Upon pickup he was healthy and happy - would not hesitate to book again!”

About: My love for exotic animals made me a zookeeper 20 years ago, but caring for pets and farm animals is my favorite. Happy to help you! I have a fully flexible schedule. I can be there for you during days, evenings, overnights, and weekends. I have a big sweet dog to keep your pets company in our home, or in yours. It’s OK if your pets would rather no outside furry friends though. I am happy to respect your preferences on crating/gating/free range, special diets/fresh cooking, walk schedule, basic obedience, snuggles, toys, and treats. Dogs of any size and breed, and pets and farm animals of any species will be well-loved in your absence. 💛

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by them and have always loved caring for them. For the past 3 years, I’ve worked full-time with dogs, and I truly treat every pup like my own!! I currently work with a pet care company in another city, and I’m now looking to meet new local clients and pups! Feel free to reach out—I’d love to connect! I live in a home with a large, fully fenced yard and a park nearby, giving pups plenty of space to play and explore. I’m happy to use a crate if preferred, and when your pup stays with me, my home becomes their home too!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have five of my own, so caring for them comes naturally to me. As a stay-at-home mom to four kids, I’m home and available throughout the day—meaning your pup will always have company, love, and attention. Caring for pets is second nature in my home. Between my five dogs and four kids, there’s always love, play, and activity to go around. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or cozy evening cuddles, pets easily become part of our family rhythm and daily routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep things comfortable and familiar. I make sure they’re well-fed, walked, and given plenty of love and attention—just as if they were my own. I also keep homes tidy and respect any specific instructions, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From growing up with dogs to caring for my own as an adult, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, loved, and treated like family while you’re away. I also previously walked and cared for dogs for clients years ago, giving me hands-on experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’ll make sure they feel happy, secure, and well cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals — and I’ll care for your dog the same way I would want someone to care for mine. Providing pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part time as a healthcare professional, which gives me several days off during the week, including weekends, allowing me to provide flexible and dependable care for your pets. On the days I do work, I still have availability during mornings and evenings for feedings, walks, check-ins, playtime, and companionship. Because caring for others is already a big part of who I am professionally and personally, I bring the same level of responsibility, patience, attentiveness, and compassion to every pet I care for. I understand how important consistency and reliability are for both pets and their owners, and I truly enjoy making animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their families are away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in yours. I provide a calm, clean, loving, and supervised environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed while maintaining their normal routines as much as possible. During walks and playtime, I stay highly attentive by using secure leashes and harnesses, avoiding unsafe areas or interactions, monitoring weather conditions, and always ensuring pets are safely supervised both indoors and outdoors. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and comfort levels, and I take the time to build trust and provide individualized care, patience, and affection. As both a lifelong pet owner and healthcare professional, I take responsibility and safety very seriously, and you can feel confident knowing your pets will be treated with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own.

About: I have been around animals of all kinds for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my family had horses, dogs, cats bunnies, guinea pigs, birds - you name it, we probably had at least one! I absolutely love dogs and currently have a very high energy pit bull names Bizzy. He is a total sweetheart and loves all other living creatures, but he does need a lot of exercise. Luckily for both of us, lots of exercise happens to be my favorite thing! I am a marathon runner and love to take dogs for long walks or even runs if that’s what they need. I know that all dogs are individuals, so I want to get to know every dog I care for. If your dog needs a long run - great! If your dog needs cuddles and quiet time - awesome! I look forward to getting to know you and your pups! I work from home and love hanging out with dogs. During work breaks or on the weekends, I love fitting in hikes with dog friends. I’m happy to care for dogs in my home as long as they can get along with my dog and cat. If I’m in their home, I will always try to go above and beyond to keep the dogs happy and comfortable.

About: I’ve cared for dogs most of my life and truly treat them like family. I grew up in a home with four dogs, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I also adopted and lovingly cared for a difficult senior dachshund for years, which gave me valuable experience with patience, senior dog needs, routines, and extra attentiveness. Today I have a large Bernedoodle, so I’m confident handling bigger dogs as well as energetic pups who need exercise and structure. I’m active and love taking dogs on walks, runs, and outdoor time when appropriate, while also making sure they get plenty of affection, snuggles, and supervision. What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely love dogs. I understand every dog is different, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day for the pets in my care. Because I’m home most of the time, dogs get plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship instead of being left alone for long stretches. My flexible routine also makes it easy for me to stick to your pet’s normal schedule for feeding, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I’m able to provide attentive, consistent care and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving home environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I have a friendly, social dog who enjoys having visitors and does well with other dogs, while always making sure introductions are done thoughtfully and safely. I have a yard for outdoor time, and while it is not fenced, I use a secure runner/tie-out system and close supervision so dogs can safely enjoy fresh air, potty breaks, and time outside. I also keep dogs leashed on walks and anytime they are outdoors for added safety. If your dog is crate-trained or more comfortable with their own space, I’m happy to accommodate crating and follow your normal home routine. I always aim to keep pets on their regular schedule for feeding, exercise, rest, and any medications or special instructions. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, attentiveness, and lots of love.

About: I work full time from 9am to 5pm, with occasional overtime. I have weekends free so I can spend plenty of time with your pets. I am gentle and calm around animals and I love to spend time playing with them and talking with them. I am careful to let them approach me if they want attention and petting.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life. At about 5 years old, my father adopted my grandfather's two Beagles and they quickly became my best friends. Today, I have 2 dogs at home, one that's 17 and one that's 7. And still they're my best friends. For as much as I love dogs, it really does feel like they love me back. Whenever I go over anyone's house I hear " Wow he never behaves this well around people normally." Each dog is so unique and the most fun thing for me is learning what makes them wag their little tails! I work from home from my apartment and only have one roommate so I'm incredibly flexible when it comes to scheduling. I'm sure that I could make just about anything work given a small notice. I have a two room apartment and a kitchen. Playing and feeding is easy for me in the apartment, but I also have a park right near me, about a 5 minute walk away.

About: I have taken care of my own pets since childhood. Worked with horses for over 20 years and dogs/ cats in a daycare/ boarding setting for 4 years. I am currently working at a dog daycare, and have my own dogs that I take care of. I am available for pet sitting on weekends right now, will be looking to add more services soon. I have many years experience taking care of peoples pets in their home. I treat all pets as if they were my own, attention to details to make sure the animals are happy and healthy.

About: Hey all! I have over 17 years experience in the animal industry! I started off walking dogs for my neighbors throughout middle and high school. I worked as a manager at a large dog daycare for 8 years to build my experience. I moved onto dog training these last 7 years training dogs under some of the best trainers in New England. I have 3 dogs of my own. A Labrador retriever, Belgian Malinois and Dutch Shepherd. In my spare time I am a nature enthusiast who loves enjoying the outdoors with my pups, going on hikes and to the beach in the off season. I am hoping to expand my services to Temple, NH and surrounding towns! I am Pet CPR certified. I am looking forward to providing services such as Day Trains, Boarding, Board and train and puppy foundations! I have reliable transportation specifically equipped with car kennels to ensure safe transport. I love working with dogs to help them become better versions of themselves as well as helping owners in the process! Pet care isn’t just part of my daily routine; it’s my entire lifestyle! As a professional dog trainer, I spend my days working with, exercising and caring for dogs. With over 17 years of experience in animal care, providing a safe, structured and enriching environment comes naturally to me. Caring for animals isn’t just my career; it’s my passion. Your dog’s safety, comfort and well being are my top priorities! My home features a dedicated, climate controlled kennel room with various kennel sizes, comfortable bedding, fresh water, toys, calming television programs and sound machines to create a relaxing environment. Cleanliness is extremely important to me! Kennels are vacuumed and wiped down daily, sanitized between guests with veterinary grade disinfectant and my home is professionally cleaned twice a month. For added peace of mind, my kennel room is equipped with video and audio monitoring, accessible from both my bedside and my phone, allowing me to check on my guests even when I’m out running errands. Outside, dogs enjoy a securely fenced backyard, private trails on my property and summertime fun with pools and sprinklers!

About: My love for my own pets inspired me to continue working with animals during college! With a major in psychology and a goal of working with therapy animals in the future, I love learning and growing as much as I can. I have multiple years of professional experience in animal shelters, and a therapy animal program! I'm hoping to spend more time gaining experience working with animals. Not only is it enjoyable to hangout with furry friends, but it will be beneficial to my future career working in animal assisted therapy! I recognize that every animal is different with their own little personality. Hearing from owners about their recommendations, and getting to know the animal has never failed!
