About: I am a college graduate who recently moved back home. With the recent passing of my dog, I decided it would be a good time to connect with other animals and provide them with the care that I gave my dog for the past 9 years. What sets me apart is my reliability and dedication to consistent care. With a structured 9-5 schedule, you can rely on me to be dependable and organized. Having grown up caring for multiple dogs and cats, I have a deep love for animals and a strong understanding of the needs of both young and senior pets. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine, ensuring they feel comfortable and well-cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, or just spending quality time, I always prioritize their well-being. I work 9-5 on weekdays, but I’m available anytime before or after work to care for your pets. I’m also happy to do overnight stays, especially on weekends, which are usually very quiet for me. When caring for pets in my client's home, I make sure to maintain a clean and respectful environment. I’m a very considerate house guest and always follow the house rules to ensure everything stays as comfortable and safe as possible for both the pet and the owners. I have reliable transportation, so I can take the pet anywhere they need to go, whether it’s for a walk, a vet visit, or just an outing. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priority, and I strive to create a stress-free, familiar environment for them while you're away.

“Haley is amazing with our 3 dogs. She is flexible, and is a good communicator. She always checks in with messages and pictures while she is watching them. We have rebooked her many times!”


About: I have recently lost my 14.5 year old husky who enjoyed walks every day and all the Rover dogs that stayed with us in the past with Rover boarding. I have recently added service to stay in the pet owners home as well. I love the responsibility of caring for, feeding, cleaning up after and watching dogs socialize and simply enjoy life. One of the most memorable experiences of my childhood is when our golden retriever had 11 puppies. When they were several weeks old, my Mom agreed to bring in one or two for show and tell to my fourth grade class. She couldn't decide which ones to bring and much to my surprise (as well as my classmates), she brought in all 11! I'd love to care for your pet! I work full time during the week primarily remotely. My weekends are for the most part dedicated to caring for various pets. I have lots of love and attention to give to your pet. I have several years of Rover boarding experience and have recently added service to care for pets in their own homes as well. I am very calm, considerate and safety conscious and can't wait to meet your pet.

“Gracie was wonderful! Great communication, very friendly, kept us posted the entire time and took great care of our home. We will definitely have her watch our pup again!”


“Will was awesome with our two dogs and kept the house immaculate it was like he wasn’t even here. He communicated regularly and took really good care of our dogs. They got more attention than we give them. 😂”


“We’ve had Jessica sit for our asthmatic cat several times. She does very well giving him his inhaler, communicates very well, and always sends a lot of adorable pictures!”


“Melody is responsive, kind, attentive, and reliable. She stayed at our home for five days/four nights and our dog loved her! She asked great questions to make sure she understood his needs and routines, sent us pictures, and left our home in wonderful condition. I will definitely recommend her to friends!”


“Tati was amazing! Benji took to her kind playful personality immediately. She sent us pictures while they were hanging out. I knew he was in good hands! We will definitely contact her again!”


“Erin was great with our dog and cat! She was quick at communicating and able to accommodate our changing schedule and left the house very tidy.”


“James was amazing! He went above and beyond and his son taught us a new trick, that we have been working on with our pup! Would absolutely have James watch our pup in the future!”


“We contacted Caley for a recent trip and were thankful to find her! She was great at staying in touch, providing updates and send us photos of our three pets! We were so happy to know there was someone keeping an eye on things while we were gone! We came home to very happy animals and Caley left our house in great shape! Thanks again!”


“Justina was really wonderful. 5 out of 5 stars on everything... communication, conscientiousness, cleanliness, loving and caring for my dog, and willingness to do anything. Highly recommend!”


About: With a lifelong passion for pets, I have extensive experience in caring for both dogs and cats, young and old. Growing up in a household with multiple pets, I have developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. Over the years, I have owned and cared for various breeds, ensuring they receive the best care, attention, and love. I have also had plenty of experience taking care of puppies of different neighbors growing up. From daily walks and playtime to grooming and health monitoring, my hands-on experience has equipped me with the skills to provide exceptional pet care. My commitment to their well-being drives me to offer reliable and compassionate service to fellow pet owners. I am currently home from college and working a full time job, however, I am remote most days of the week. I have plenty of time in the day to take care of an animal and would love to meet your pets! In my home, I ensure pets receive consistent and attentive care by establishing a daily routine. This includes feeding them nutritious meals at regular times, providing fresh water, and maintaining a clean environment. I prioritize playtime and exercise to keep them physically and mentally stimulated, tailoring activities to their preferences and energy levels. Regular grooming and health checks are part of my routine to ensure they remain clean and healthy. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I offer personalized services to match their specific needs and routines. I begin by discussing their pet's habits, preferences, and any special requirements. In the client's home, I adhere to their established feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific care instructions provided. I ensure the pet's living area is clean and comfortable and provide companionship and attention to ease any separation anxiety. My goal is to create a seamless and stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, ensuring pets feel secure and loved whether they're in my home or their own.

“Gavin took great care of our pets; I don't think they missed us at all! Thorough, professional and kind! This was a great experience. Many thanks!”


“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!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, dog whisperer, and proud dog mom to my beloved Bobo, who recently passed after 15 beautiful years. I grew up in Rye, now live in Kittery, and have been dog walking and sitting part-time for the last three years while working full-time as a behavior technician at Rye Jr. High School. This summer, I’m doing what I love most: working with dogs full time. I walk fast but always match the pace of the dog I’m with (Bobo had hip arthritis, so I’m very used to taking it slow when needed). I love long adventures in nature and truly cherish bonding with each pup I meet. I can’t wait to spend time with your dog, get to know their unique personality, and become their new best friend. Whether it’s a quiet stroll through your neighborhood or a fun outing to a dog-friendly nature spot nearby, I’ll tailor each walk to what works best for you and your pup. Best, Lucy. I’m doing pet care full-time this summer with open availability all week. I love long walks, quick visits, and spending quality time with each pup. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I’ll care for them in their familiar environment, follow your instructions closely, and treat them like family.

Phoebe K.
“I’ve known Phoebe for many years, and I can confidently say they are one of the most reliable and caring people I’ve ever trusted with my dog. They have watched my pup multiple times over the years, and each time I’ve come home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. Their natural connection with animals is clear from the moment you see them interact. My dog absolutely adores Phoebe and is always excited to see them—which says a lot! Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or just checking in, they are always professional, communicative, and attentive to every detail. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in such capable and loving hands. I highly recommend Phoebe to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced pet sitter who truly cares”

Laurie K.

“Puppies! Puppies are what brought Laurie and I together just about 30 years ago. Since, few of our interactions are without our four footed children. Laurie is everything you could ask for in a dog caregiver. Years and years of experience caring for dogs and a dog lover through and through, I have always felt confident leaving our dogs in Laurie's care. She is incredibly calm and super responsible. Her love for any and all outdoor activities just completes the package. Spending time with dogs walking/hiking is not so much a job as it is what she loves to do best!! So with warm thoughts of Samson and Allie and wagging tails and immense affection, I whole-heartedly recommend Laurie to be your next pet sitter!”
