“Kim sent me multiple photos of my puppy while we were away and I knew he was in great hands. She took him to the park, ran him around the yard and played with other dog friends. Very professional and knowledgeable. We will be using her again for boarding.”

“Once again our doodle, Jaxon, had a fun time at Alina’s. He loves being outside and playing I the snow and he had plenty of opportunities with Alina. His tail was wagging when we dropped him off and he was happy to see us at pickup. We love being able to drop Jaxon off when we travel to NH.”

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life. I now have a 4 year old dog who I've raised since she was 9 weeks old, and an 11 year old rescue kitty. I'm very active with animals, providing love, exercise, basic training, and mental stimulation. I work part time and homeschool my kids full time. I am happy to help with walks, board as needed, and of course do house visits for cats (or potty stops for dogs!). I have a fenced in yard and a one level apartment. I have a 4 year old bernedoodle and an 11 year old rescue kitty who is an absolute love. Happy to provide in home care or bring pets here to get some exercise and play with my pup!

He came home exhausted!! And he made a new friend with their dog, Sammy. I definitely will be bringing Bronson back!! Thank you for treating my dog like family.”

“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”

About: My parents have 2 Australian Blue Heelers who are 8 and 9 months old, and I’ve dog sat for friends and family for over 10 years. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, including ones with health conditions. I’m currently working a hybrid schedule, so i work from home Mondays and some Fridays. During the week I can happily come during my lunch break to walk/drop in on your pups! I have flexibility in when I take it, but do have to limit the walks/drop ins to 30 mins so I can get back in time. Depending on when you’re looking for walks/boarding, I’m almost always available! There currently aren’t other dogs at my house, so my attention is completely on your pets! We live in a friendly neighborhood for walks, which is perfect for my outdoorsy self and your pups.

About: I’m a newly retired teacher and former principal that loves my doggies! Over the years, I’ve had so much love from my very special friends. Would love to give and get some loves from your treasured family member. I literally live in the middle of Stratham Hill Park and I love to walk. Only one “little guy” at a time…🥰 I’m loving my retirement and have lots of time and love to give. I have some scheduled exercise classes in the mornings but always home by 10:30. I’ve had so many dogs over the years. Routine visits to the vet are mandatory and walking, playing, and interacting with my friends are essential. I’m also very familiar with dogs with anxiety. One needs to approach this in a calm and careful way and watch the signs for anxiety coming on and be able to respond with love and kindness. Living right in the middle of Stratham Hill Park, I have easy access to the walking trails. Because I don’t know your dog, they will never be off leash but will be outside often during the day!! I love to walk. 🥰 I have a lovely crate IF your dog prefers this quiet space, but I will not be crating unless you ask me to. Typically my 11 year old grandson will come by after school to snuggle, play and go for a walk with me and your pup!

About: I have been a dog owner since I was 5 and for then past 37 years I have had primarily beagles along with one Vizsla with typically 2 at any given time. Our last beagle Charlie passed away a few months ago and while we would like the freedom having no pet allows us we miss the company and unconditional love they offer us. My wife worked as a vet tech for 10 years so we are comfortable administering meds and I have been pretty successful with training pups (yes even beagles). I work mostly from home and my wife has the summers off from teaching so it fits great unto our routine and it would be a pleasure to have dogs underfoot again. We have crates if dogs feel at home in them but they are welcome in all the rooms downstairs. We live on a long dirt road which is perfect for walks and if it gets too hot we have a cool basement and a pond for them to swim in.

“Caitlyn exceeded my expectations and took good care of my two feench bulldogs. She groomed them, played with them and loved them like they were her own! I think my dogs liked her more than me and already misses her. Haha 😄 I didnt worry about them at all knowing they were with her. I will never leave them at a boarding facility again and they will go to Caitlins from now on! Thank you for your love and care of my beloved dogs!”

About: Hello!! I grew up around cats and dogs, starting my first job at 14 as our neighborhood dog walker. I currently have a dog & a cat. I have a lot of experience with dog sitting and spend most of my free time with my pets! I also take care of many family pets when their owners are away. I also have experience caring for small animals such as guinea pigs and rabbits! Wondering why you should pick me over others? I don’t think I’ve ever been around an animal that isn’t genuinely happy to see me or be around me. Your pet will be treated like the prince/princess it is in my presence. Pets are so special, don’t give them anything less than what they deserve! I’m currently part of a medical assistant program that allows me to create my work schedule and have most of my schooling online! I have plenty of free time right now! I do not currently have a fenced in backyard, but do have 40 acres of free roaming space for dogs to roam or be taken on walks around. Also trails nearby for walks. My home itself is always filled with comfy places, lots of toys, and all of our 5 animals get along very well. I have a toddler which has been a big transition but she loves our animals and absolutely enjoys taking care of them like her mom!! I am very particular about giving your pet exceptional care in your home and in mine! I will always make sure they have what they need and are comfortable.

About: I have had years of experience with other peoples pets, and primarily my own. I have taken care of my own Dogs, cats, snakes, hamsters, horses, and fish over the years. I’ve grown up with puppies, and currently have my own 2 kittens, and also have had elderly dogs, cats, and horses before. I have always adored animals, and have always been an important part in my life so I would love to make more furry friends with your pets:) I currently am enrolled in school at The University of New Hampshire. My schedule is super open this semester since I took summer classes so my work load would be easier. In home care : I would make sure to send client photos if l was boarding their pet at my apartment, and make sure I follow the exact instructions given. When other people watch my pets , there’s always the anxiety of making sure they are treated well, and taken care of. Clients home: if I took care of the clients pets, I would make sure that I followed all the rules given and more. I understand it can be uncomfortable for a stranger to be in your house, so trust and reassurance everything is safe it’s important as a pet and home owner

About: I have always been described as the animal lover in my family, always trying to convince my parents to get me a new pet. I have been petsitting since 2020, and have excellent references! I’m comfortable with anything from feeding, to walking, to just hanging out, to administering medication! I am currently home in New Hampshire from college in Boston looking to expand my pet sitting experience! I am free almost every day, and can provide exceptional and reliable care for your pets. Pets at my home are always taken care of with the same love and respect I give my own pets. I have a fenced in yard!

Rebecca is amazing! My pups had the absolute best time! She is extremely communicative and sent tons of much appreciated photos. This was my little dog's first time away from home and he's exceptionally choosy about his people.... well the little man fell head over heels for Rebecca and didn't want to come home. She was able to give my very different dogs exactly what each of them needed to feel safe and happy, and I feel incredibly lucky that we found her!
