“First, my apologies for not leaving this review sooner. Amanda is a wonderful young lady and I felt extremely comfortable with her caring for Kia. I could tell by the pictures she sent that Kia was content and safe. I would highly recommend her services.”


“Michaela was extremely responsive and professional in her communication with us during our trip, and went the extra mile to make sure our cat Lola was comfortable and well cared for. We know both we and Lola appreciated her drop-in visits!”


“Beverly did a fantastic job caring for our kitties while we were away. We came home to happy, healthy cats—and it was clear they had been well loved and looked after. Her attention to detail and genuine care gave us great peace of mind. We’re so grateful for everything she did and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life, from tiny kittens to large senior dogs. My experience includes in home care for multiple pets at once, senior dog care with special needs, and providing daily care for Yorkshire Terrier and a high-energy cattle dog - both over a year. I've also shared 16 loving years with my Bombay Cat, providing attentive care through injuries and end-of-life needs, and now I have a well-trained, happy Cockapoo of my own (plus I dog-sit for her brother!) I have experience with directed senior pet care, administering basic medications (including subcutaneous fluids), and light training. My lifelong love for animals means I treat every pet like family - whether it's long walks, gentle care for older pets, energetic playtime, or plenty of cuddles. What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to to each animal's unique personality and needs, my patience, and dedication to creating a safe, loving environment where pets feel at home. During the week I am lucky to work a remote position at a software consulting firm that I have worked at for over 15 years. This makes it easy to work wherever I need to, and provides the opportunity to spend more time at home with my pup, but also opens up my time before and after my regular work day, also a flexible lunch hour for midday check-ins. On walks, I make sure your pet is safe, happy, and engaged. During visits I make sure to be attentive to your pet and that they feel secure.

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for cats and small dogs. I provide safe, reliable, and affectionate pet sitting. From walks and playtime to feedings and cuddles, your pet will feel right at home while you're away! I always have had kitties my whole life. I currently have 3 adorable lovable furry friends. I am comfortable taking care of small dogs. I can also administer medication as I have worked in several veterinary practices including a mobile practice. I currently work at a middle school as a para educator. I have off for the summers. I’m available most afternoons and early evenings and weekends. My top priority when pet sitting would be the safety of the cat or dog. Making sure they are properly feed and the litter is clean and played with.

About: Hi there! My name is Allison, and I'm excited to share that I’m opening up my schedule to take on more pet sitting clients! 🐾 Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I’ve been pet sitting for about six years now. Over the past two years, I’ve grown a loyal base of repeat clients, and with my schedule opening up a bit, I’m ready to welcome more furry friends into my routine! I'm currently in school studying to become a veterinary technician and also work at an animal hospital — so you can trust that your pets are in caring, capable hands. Whether it's playtime, long walks, snuggles, or special care needs, I'm all about making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. At home, I have two energetic dogs and two sweet cats of my own, so I understand how much your pets mean to you — they’re family. I’d love the chance to meet your pups (or cats!) and help keep their tails wagging while you're busy or out of town. Hi there! I wanted to share a bit more about my availability and services for pet sitting and drop-in visits. For in-home dog sitting, I’m primarily available Friday through Sunday, as those are the days I have off from my job at an animal hospital in Londonderry. I find weekends are ideal for pet sitting since I can spend more quality time with your pets and give them my full attention. That said, I’m also open to weekday bookings — I just like to be transparent about my schedule. I work Monday through Thursday with shifts from 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM, except for Wednesdays, when I work 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM. If you're located near my workplace, I do get a one-hour break during the day and can check in around noon, which can be a great option if your pets are comfortable being alone for a few hours. Services & Pricing: * 30-minute drop-in visits: $20 per visit * 3 or more visits in one day: Discounted to $50 total instead of charging over 60 * In-home sitting: Starts at $50 per night Pricing may vary slightly depending on the number of pets or special care needs, but I’m always happy to work with you to create a plan that suits your pets and your budget. My goal is to make sure your animals receive loving, reliable care while keeping things affordable for you. If you have any questions or would like to discuss a customized plan, feel free to reach out — I’d love to connect and meet your furry family! I take safety very seriously, at my home I have a fenced in yard it is short though so any dogs who could jump or have a history with being a little mischievous stay on a 15 foot lead. I am insured as well! If the stay is at your home then I follow your rules to the best I possibly can to keep your pup safe and happy at all times!

“Sorry Im so later with a review .Chelsea did a very good job taking care of Fred ,she gave him his insulin shots twice a day ,did a good job taking care of his food ,water and tray .Sorry you moved I would have you take care of Fred any day .”


About: All animals seem to love me. So assure you, your dog will. I’ve never run into a dog that didn’t like me yet! I have a passion for dog baths and interactive play! I love a good game of tug-of-war or fetch. I also love doggy kisses and spending quality time with each doggy I meet! I work weekends only so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals throughout the day. I can do any task given to me with patience, kindness and grace! I feel that pets love to be in their own home because that is where they feel most comfortable since that’s the space they’ve always known. At home, we have all the tools we need to be successful in our visit and the love of a companion to make it even better!

About: Alongside having many years of experience watching my own cats and dogs, I have also dogsat and cat sat for many years! I love animals and would love to spend time with yours! I’m currently a sophmore in college and will be living at home and commuting. Pet care will be responsibility and priority in my hours away from school! I would love to walk, play, and show tons of affection to the dogs and cats under my care! I have always kept my animals happiness and safety my top priority and am continuing that idea :)

About: I have had 3 dogs and 1 cat in my lifetime. Three english bulldogs and that beautiful brown cat in the photos. Unfortunately they have all passed on and my current living situation does not allow pets. The best way to puppy and kitty fever is by spending some time with others! Since I was in high school, I have been asked by multiple neighbors to watch their pets while they’re away. I always take dogs on daily walks or play with them outside in the yard to make sure they are getting their energy out. My favorite part is having pets curl up next to me, that’s how I know I have done my job. I am a college student home for the summer looking to hangout with some furry friends! I have years of experience in both housesitting and dog walking. I have a fenced yard at my house for safe play. I do prefer to keep the pet at the owners house so they feel most comfortable.

“Kelsey is an amazing pet sitter! She came over to meet myself and my cat prior to the visits and my cat loved her right away! Getting her updates was the highlight of my days while I was away. Came home to a very happy kitty! I will for sure be using Kelsey’s services again!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for years as a side job. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and love on their pets while they are away. I love both dogs and cats and I have had different pets of my own. I currently just have a kitten now. I love to be active and walk dogs on long walks or play fetch with them. Most pets usually feel comfortable with me fast and we get along great. I don’t have pets of my own right now, so I’m available full-time and can also do overnight stays if needed. At the moment, I’m focusing on house sitting. The way I like to care for pets is with a calm and positive energy. I allow a natural connection to form where they can trust me and I keep up their routine so they feel comfortable.

About: With being between jobs, I am home most of the time. Your pup will have a friend to play with during the whole stay with my dog, Fenway. I am currently in between jobs so I am home pretty much all of the time. I do have a dog at home. He’s a six year old fixed male husky. He’s super playful still but also loves to sleep. We go to the Derry dog park pretty often but we can skip it if you’re not comfortable with it. I may not have a fenced in yard however I do have a side yard with a screw in the ground 30ft runner that my dog uses and can be utilized for your dog as well. I do have a large crate if needed I can set up. Your pup is more than welcome on the couch or bed as my dog is a bed/couch dog but I can also make sure they stay off if needed. We have SO many dog toys so you won’t need to bring your own however I know dogs have favorite/comfort toys (mine doesn’t destroy toys so your pups toys would be safe.)

About: I have 8 years of professional pet sitting and dog walking experience as well as a certificate in basic dog training. I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes. I have three dogs of my own as well as farm animals. I really enjoy working with animals! I work mostly mornings and afternoons Monday-Fridays but I can be accommodating for weekend or evening visits depending on my children’s schedule and advanced notice I treat every animal as if they are mine. I have experience with many breeds, sizes and temperaments. I can read a dogs body language well. I will provide amazing care that includes belly rubs, walks and treats/water
