“Kristen did a great job taking care of our cat while we were gone, which included giving her medication twice a day. She sent lots of pictures and our cat loved Kristen. We will definitely ask her to watch our cat again in the future!”

“Leah took great care of our pup! We had such peace of mind while we were away. She spent lots of quality time with him at home and on walks, definitely goes above and beyond! Glad we found her!”


“Brittany took great care of Wrigley and Etta while we were away at Disney World. Leaving Etta is always stressful because she struggles with separation anxiety and requires daily medication, but Brittany made the whole experience so much easier. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and pictures, let us know how they were doing, and made sure Etta got her medication. Both dogs got plenty of walks, attention, and love while we were away. The biggest thing for me was coming home to two happy, relaxed dogs. It was clear they were well cared for and comfortable with Brittany. Having someone we could trust with our dogs gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. We would absolutely book with Brittany again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive to their pets.”

“Jessica was amazing! She is 100% reliable, trustworthy and kind. She watched our puppy for four nights (overnight) and was patient with a puppy that is still very early in her training. We hope she will be willing to come back soon and often because she was FABULOUS!”

“Tati was great! She was communicative, responsive, and attentive. My dog seemed very happy and healthy upon my return, and my house was as clean as when I left it. I would definately trust her to watch him again.”

“Michael was a new sitter for us, but he will be our go-to sitter moving forward. He was prompt, reliable & very sweet with our pets. We got many photos and videos of his stay & our dog seemed very happy to have him there for walks & to play with. An unexpected bonus was not only that he left us a note so we knew where our pets were at in their day with treats & meds, but how clean he left our house (even stripped the bed & put his sheets in the washing machine)! 6/5 stars for Michael D! I HIGHLY recommend!”


“I knew when we had our first meet and greet that Patrick and Sampson would hit it off! Patrick was amazing - very communicative, enthusiastic about his stay with Samspon and he provided the best care and companionship for my big buddy. He also took great care of my home and I was totally relaxed on my vacation knowing he was here with Sampson. Hands down, highly recommend and I’ll most definitely be looking to hire Patrick for future homestays with Sampson!! A++”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and taken care of them when needed! I love being around furry friends and make sure they get everything they need and more. I’m currently employed at my local coffee shop, but they’re under renovation so I’ve had a lot of availability! I love going on walks and walk 2-4 miles daily, so I’d love some furry company. At the cafe, I usually work 12-6, so I have plenty of time before and after to care for the pups during workdays as well. I am great at following directions and have a solid understanding of general doggy care in my clients home! I’m super reliable, let me know your needs and I’ll meet them!

“Caley was unbelievably accommodating as when we were traveling we had gotten delayed quite a bit, but she was able to help us out and extend her stay and also able to be there for our dogs during one of the worst blizzards I’ve ever seen, she took great care of the house and our dogs, and we will definitely hire her again for a certain!”

“We two humans, along with Felix-the Dog, all feel like we made a new friend in Kathleen! Felix, who is not always sure about new people he meets, immediately took to Kathleen when she came to our home for a meet-and-greet. Kathleen sensed Felix’s apprehension and quickly put him at ease with her calm, affectionate, low-key response. On the basis of our visit, we mutually agreed to have Kathleen stay with Felix a few days later while we enjoyed a quick 24-hour getaway. While we were away, we had good, clear communication by text message. Although we were delayed getting home, Kathleen volunteered to stay until we returned so she could give us a verbal report, which we appreciated very much. When she left, Felix’s dejected body-language showed he was sad to see her go; clearly he had enjoyed her company. We look forward with confidence to having Kathleen stay with Felix again.”

“I enjoyed my trip so much more because I knew Melissa was taking excellent care of my kitties. She sent me lots of pictures and updates to reassure me. She did everything I asked of her and more. I will definitely be booking her again!”

About: Taking care of animals is my joy. I have 3 healthy cats and an 8 week old puppy at home who I take care of, and I have been dog and cat sitting since I was around 12. When I was younger I put up flyers around town for my little pet care business, and people loved how I took care of their animals. I am currently working part time and in online school, so my schedule is very flexible and I have lots of time to take care of animals! My cats that I have had for years are healthy and happy and they are my best friends. I have never missed feeding or playing or cuddling, and I will treat my clients animals like they are my own. In my clients home I like to make sure the animal is properly taken care of and that everything is under control, whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, nail clipping, whatever it is!

About: To me, your pet isn’t just an animal—they are your child, and they deserve to be treated like royalty. Having dogs of my own all my life and having spent over a decade pet-sitting, and previous experience working at a doggy day care, I’ve truly seen it all. I naturally prefer the company of animals to humans, and that deep connection reflects in how I care for your fur babies. Here is exactly what I bring to the table: * **Patience & Communication:** I don’t force a routine on a pet. I am incredibly patient and take the dedicated time to truly learn your pet's unique personality and how they communicate their needs to me. * **Puppy Management & Training Support:** If you have a brand-new puppy, I understand the delicate balance of consistency they need. I am experienced in reinforcing potty training schedules, crate training, basic manners, and managing that wonderful, goofy puppy energy so their progress doesn't stall while you're away. * **Specialized Senior & Delicate Care:** Older dogs hold a very special place in my heart. I have extensive experience assisting senior dogs who just need a gentler touch, a slower pace, or extra patience adjusting to new environments and pets. * **A Safe Haven for "Scaredy Dogs":** Not every pet is an immediate social butterfly. If your dog is anxious, shy, or easily startled, my gentle, intuitive approach gives them the space they need to feel safe and secure at their own pace. Whether you have a chaotic, playful puppy or a sweet senior citizen who just wants to snooze, I promise to love and protect them like my very own. (And please, tell your dog I said hi!) My Schedule & Availability I do work a full-time job 5 days a week from **8:00 AM to 6:00 PM**, but my schedule is highly predictable, allowing me to build a consistent and reliable routine for your pets. Here is how I make sure your four-legged kids get plenty of love and attention: * **Overnight House Sitting:** I am fully available for overnights! I will spend the evening, night, and early morning keeping your pets company, ensuring they are safely tucked in and never lonely. * **Mid-Day Lunch Breaks:** If your home is within 10 minutes of North Hampton, I can easily pop in during my lunch break for a quick potty relief, a leg stretch, and a round of midday scratches. * **Sundays are for Spoliation:** Sundays are my official day off, and I dedicate the entire day to the animals! ### Custom Adventures for Every Personality When I am off-clock, I love tailoring the day to whatever makes your pet happiest. I am always happy to provide: * **Beach & Hiking Outings:** If your dog loves long walks near the beach or exploring a local hiking trail, I am the perfect match. * **Backyard Fun & Games:** For the puppies and high-energy dogs, I’m always down for intense games of tug, fetch, or backyard playtime. * **Cozy Snuggle Marathons:** If your sweet senior dog or royal cat prefers a quiet day on the couch, I am a natural homebody who is more than happy to provide endless lap space and gentle companionship. In-Home Care & Overnight Sitting When I care for your fur babies in your home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal, stable, and stress-free as possible while you are away. Because I treat your pets like my own children, they get my full attention, love, and devotion. Here is what a typical stay looks like: * **Customized Play & Exercise:** Whether your dog is a high-energy puppy who needs structured walks and playtime, or a sweet senior who prefers a slow, gentle stroll around the block, I tailor the day to their physical needs and pace. * **Endless Snuggles & Companionship:** I am a homebody who genuinely prefers the company of animals to humans, so your pets will never be lonely. From couch cuddles to bedtime snugs, they will receive endless affection and emotional support. * **Reading Their Body Language:** I take the time to learn how your dog or cat uniquely communicates. If a shy cat needs space to just watch me from afar, or a "scaredy dog" needs extra patience, I listen to them and let them set the boundaries. * **Respectful Home Care:** I treat your home with the utmost respect and cleanliness. While making sure your pets are thriving, I am also happy to bring in the mail, keep your plants watered and thriving, and ensure everything is safe and secure. You can travel with total peace of mind knowing your four-legged kids are safe, loved, and deeply spoiled in the comfort of their own space!

“Katherine was great - she stayed overnight at our house and she took great care of our animals and house. She kept us updated with pictures and videos of all the animals. She was very flexible when we were returning home and her communication was overall excellent. We'd highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals!”

“Julianne spent 2 overnights with our little Havanese, and we couldn't have been happier with her. Not only was she very responsible with following instructions as to his care but she also showed she was someone we can trust to stay in our home. Frequent updates with photos assured us that things we going smoothly. She won our shy one-year-old Jaco over. Will use her again.”

“Here's a review you can use: --- I can't say enough good things about Eddy and his girlfriend! They took care of my dog Sky, and I was truly impressed with their dedication and love for animals. From the moment I met them, it was clear that they genuinely care about pets. Sky came back happy and well taken care of, which is all a pet owner can ask for. They provided regular updates and were always communicative. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet sitters. Thank you,”

Gavin was great! My cats are notoriously shy with new people. Gavin made the effort to find them in their hiding spots to make sure they were okay and then gave them their space to let them warm up on their own terms. I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in Gavin’s care and would love for him to watch them again.

Tati was an amazing sitter with my pup Bailey. She kept me informed each day, sending awesome pictures and went above and beyond when my pup got some GI issues and needed to go on the bland diet. I have already hired her for more future dates, highly recommend!

Eddy stayed with our German Shepherd over the Thanksgiving holiday and treated her to a wonderful weekend with lots of walking, running, and snuggling. We needed help last minute because she was in heat and didn’t feel comfortable boarding her - Eddy came through and wasn’t fazed by any of the many instructions we had for her, or her puppy craziness. He sent lots of updates and we knew she was in great hands. Absolutely would recommend him!
