Dog Sitting Rollinsford

About: I grew up with lots of cats and dogs as a kid and became experienced with taking care of them at a young age. I love playing with and taking care of pets and I'm good at reading their body language and trying to understand what an animal wants and needs. I work freelance remotely so my schedule is flexible and I have plenty of time to check on and care for your pets. I have a reliable car and have no problem coming to your home to care for your pet. I have experience with both cats and dogs and I know how to read their body language and respond to whatever it is that they need.

About: My pet care experience has seen be learn a number of skills such as monitoring your pets behavior to understand when a social situation may become too stressful. Other skills I have acquired are following directions for specific diets, seeing through that each pet gets exactly what their owners ask for. I have also gained experience in grooming as well. Right now, I can work any day of the week, Monday through Friday, and as for times I am very flexible, I can start as early as you need and keep your pet until whenever you want! I am very attentive when it comes to pets. With my previous work experience, it was necessary for me to stay alert, as to make sure no pets ended up harming each other, or to make sure they weren’t doing something they’re not supposed to.

“Alyssa is absolutely wonderful. I have a new puppy...and have to work. Alyssa stops in midday to check in on him. She goes above and beyond. Not only does she care for and play with him, but she also takes the time to help reinforce his training. Hank and I think Alyssa is the best!”

About: Hey, I’m Rae (she/they) I show up with care, patience, and reliability, and I’m here to support your pets in a way that feels safe and respectful for everyone involved. 🐾 My experience with animals began early. At 14, I worked at a large dog boarding kennel and daycare, where I handled daily dog walks, kennel care, feeding routines, and daycare rotations. That foundation taught me how to work calmly and responsibly with many different temperaments and needs. Professionally, I work as an accountant, which means I’m detail-oriented, dependable, and communicative. Outside of that work, spending time with animals is grounding and meaningful for me. I also want to be transparent that my 8-year-old child may sometimes accompany me during pet-sitting or walking duties. They are kind, respectful of animals, and always under my direct supervision. I only bring them along when it’s appropriate for the pet, the setting, and the client’s comfort—and I’m always happy to discuss boundaries or preferences. For a first meet-and-greet, I’m happy to meet somewhere local and comfortable. A neutral option is the Dog Park at Longhill Memorial Park (32 Longhill Road, Dover, NH 03820), or we can meet at my apartment leasing office, or at your home if preferred. I look forward to caring for your fur-babies with attentiveness, honesty, and care—and offering you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 💗 I work as an accountant and my days are flexible mainly dependent on the business day of the month. I work from home so it’s easy for me to make accomodations and meet animals needs. Whatever accommodations needed we will discuss upfront! We will ensure we are a proper match before engaging in business. I am able to lift 50lbs and can walk long distances.

About: Kristine and Eric have loved and had animals our entire life. I have always helped care for pets, even as a child. Eric was raised on a farm, caring for many different kinds of animals- waking up before dawn to ensure that all animals were properly cared for and had what they needed for the day whether it be rain, shine, snow, sleet, hot, or cold. We, together, have two dogs. They are both around 10 years old and are rescues. We also have 6 chickens. Our home has a door from the downstairs to the upstairs. When dogs are home during the day and if left alone for 1 hour or so they stay downstairs with access to water, comfy couches, and dog bed areas. When we are home they have free run of the home. We also have a crate for dogs that may need a private, safe space. We have a back yard that our dog enjoys playing in, but just so you know it is not fenced in, therefore dogs remain leashed when in the back yard. We do have a deck that is closed off in the backyard where dogs can be left unleashed to hang out, but always supervised when out there. We also have a 15 year old daughter who loves animals. She assists with the care of our dogs and we have fostered a few dogs in the past from various shelters and she is always eager to assist with making these dogs feel comfortable and give them love. She volunteers at a local animal shelter with small mammals and takes care of the chickens I work full time during the school year for a school district. Eric works from home. Eric takes dogs for a number of walks per day including walks to the local dog park (Rogers Park) and to local beaches for exercise and socialization. I am home by 3:30 pm and bring my dogs (and other dogs) for exercise either running, hiking, or walking. In the summer I am mostly around. I also grew up with cats and with both have experience with cats and providing meds to cats, including insulin shots. I work full time and Eric works part to full time but we can walk dogs in the evening and walk dogs throughout the day on the weekends. I have summers off as I work in a school. I will not be offering care in my home, but am excited to take care of your pet and walk your dog and take your dog on adventures.

About: Growing up, my family always had at least one dog in the household (boxers, a lab/pitbull mix, aussies, and even a chihuahua). Going to school in Boston, my roommates and I dog walked one dog daily and dog sat for a total of 4 others. Moving up to the seacoast area, I have begun volunteering (walking, fostering, and assisting with events) for a local shelter in my free time. This has included puppies as young as 2 months to larger mature dogs for anywhere from a sleepover to as long as 2 weeks. I work full time Monday through Friday but have some flexibility with my hours. Outside of work I stay very active but I am eager to work some dog time into my schedule. I cannot have dogs at my residence due to rental requirements but am happy to take dogs on walks/adventures and dog sit wether that be for a few hours or days at the dog’s/client’s home.

About: I’m a 20 year old college student at UNH looking to walk and dog sit!! I own 3 labs at home, ages are 14, 3, and 2 :) I have plenty of free time on week days and weekends during school year, and every day when summer comes around!! I love all pups and love to take care and give them love! I have a great environment at home for taking care of dogs, I have 3 of the sweetest labs at home and a big yard!

About: I've taken care of all ages of cats and dogs, and handled things like medication or appointments. I've pet sat for multiple friends, coworkers and family members throughout the years and many of them have come back multiple times for me to do it again. I own my own business so I make my own hours and can be flexible on when I'm needed. I'm available weekdays but not weekends. I will make sure to follow any and all instructions you leave, and love to play and cuddle with animals. I also have time to bring dogs on longer walks if needed.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, all different breeds with all different needs. My current dog lives with seizures and continuously needs attention, meds, and different foods, so I understand that all dogs need special care, and lots of love! My schedule varies, but I am actively looking to make extra money over the summer, so I will do my best to make bookings work! If visiting your home to care for your pup, I can take them on a walk, play with them, feed them, clean up any accidents if necessary, or give them meds if needed! I want to care for them just the same as you would.

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I am happy to leave covered in hair & smelling like whatever they smell like! I am comfortable with puppies-senior. I am free almost all evenings & early mornings. Weekends are mostly open, too! Mondays are usually always free starting in August. Currently I’m pretty flexible, too! I follow directions & am comfortable reaching out if I have questions. I lean on the safe side & want the absolute best for your pet.

“Anya did a great job watching my bunnies for me. She followed my instructions and took the time to interact with them. They were well cared for when I returned.”

About: Animal lover with a passion for caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Reliable, patient, and attentive, with a focus on keeping pets safe, active, and happy on every walk. I'm currently not working, so I have plenty of time to cuddle and take care of your pets! My availability is wide open! Limited weekend hours. My home isn't pet friendly as my cats don't like friends. So any pet watching would have to be at your house or outside or another location.

“She was wonderful!! Very flexible and accommodating. Will count on her again!”

“Abby was amazing. She showed so much love for our dogs! She is very friendly and polite. And showed up on time!! Bonus!”

“Nicole was terrific! She did a great job getting our older & very shy cat to take her medicine and overall took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. It was great to know that they were in such good hands and we would definitely ask Nicole to sit for us again.”

About: When I’m not boarding, walking, or doing doggy daycare I’m hanging out with my kiddos. Occasionally I also foster puppies at 8 weeks old and start the potty training process and prepare them to go to their furever home. Does your dogs like to sleep on the couch? Perfect! I do too! Do they prefer to sleep in bed with you at night? Not a problem, come on in! Does your dog need daily walks? You got it! I live on a quiet road off the beaten path. I tend to treat all animals with the respect and love I give my children and I teach my children the same morals. Pets aren’t just pets in my eyes, each dog has needs they need to have met and it’s my job to make that happen when they are in my care. During my high school years I spent my time after school volunteering at the local veterinary clinic assisting the vet techs preform their daily tasks. Growing up I worked on a dairy farm. I know how to administer medications, potty train, bathe, and trim nails. I’m a stay at home mom during the week so I am always home to give my furbabies all the love and attention they want. When I’m home and need to leave your pups will tag along with me through my daily routine and hangout with me. Or if they’d prefer to relax at home and have free range they can! I try to keep a potty and feeding schedule the same as when they are with you. I live in a lake house so if your pups love to swim then this is the place to be! I also have a decent size yard (unfenced) for playing. My two dogs will keep your furbaby company in a doggy sense. My children will also play with your babies so they will definitely have a lot of attention. Inside my house is baby proof so it is also dog proof. Do you want to FaceTime your dog while they are with me? Not a problem, call whenever. I will send pictures and updates throughout the day for you so you know they are okay. Your pets truly are treated like family in my care.

About: I have a life time of experience. I grew up helping my mom take care of peoples animals. Farm animals, birds, dogs, cats. A special skill of mine is training dogs. I currently work part time Monday-Friday, that gives me the ability to have a bunch of playtime on the weekends. I will also be available weekdays after 5:30 I have a small fenced in yard, and land to explorer weather your dog is off leash or on leash there is a place to play for everyone. I have crates incase your dog needs a break/nap. I also have baby gates to ensure everyone is safe in my care.

“Clayton was wonderful with Buddy and I've already asked about the next times I am away for work. I know Buddy is in good hands and well loved with Clayton! I highly recommend him.”
