“THANK YOU FOR TOLERATING MY STINKER!! I am so thankful that my partner and i were able to have a mini vacation. Senna seemed to have a good time with shannon despite her wild anxiety. 10/10 would book again 🫶”
2. Samantha L.
“Sam was great with our two pups this weekend! We have a 10 month old extrovert and a 5 year old introvert, and she was able to accommodate both personalities so well! They’re both home, happy, and tired- just how we like it!”
3. Piper N.
“Our 6-month old puppy has had 2 stays with Piper so far. She is amazing. Our dog is fearful of strangers and needs to warm up at his own pace (which can be extremely slow at times). Piper just knew how to handle him from the get go and went out of her way to make him feel comfortable. She even discovered things that our little guy likes that we did not know. Prior to his first stay, Piper spent quite a bit of time on the phone to get as much information as possible about Milo. She even made recommendations to make him feel comfortable. While he was anxious at drop off time, he was a happy little guy after his first experience there. At the second stay a week later, I left Piper's house with him licking from her hand and not really caring that I was leaving (a huge accomplishment given his fear level). And when I picked him up, he did not even come to the door - I guess he had forgotten about me and was happily chewing on a bone, all comfy on the rug. Piper is family no. 2 to our dog!”
4. Melissa P.
“I have known Melissa for many years, first as my daughter's amazing 4th grade teacher and next as a fellow dog-owner and dog walking partner. Melissa always shows the utmost care for her dogs when walking, assuring that the course is accessible, that the dogs have appropriate tools for the weather (vests for the cold, etc.), and that their needs for safety and water are always met. Melissa is also simply a dog lover, which shows through her friendly interactions with all dogs we encounter on our walks. Melissa would be a great carer for your pet.”
5. Gwynn Z.
“Gwynn is amazing. She paid attention to exactly the attention (exercise, etc.) that Martie needed and even sent us pictures of their adventures. Martie was exhausted when we got home!”
6. Brittany M.
“We were so happy with the cat sitting services provided by Lahana during our recent vacation. From the moment we met Lahana for the initial consultation, we could tell she was a true cat lover who would take wonderful care of our two kitties. Lahana took the time to get to know each of our cats' unique personalities, preferred foods and treats, favorite toys, and daily routines. We felt completely at ease leaving the cats in her capable and caring hands at her home while we were away. During their stay, Lahana sent us daily updates and photos so we could see that our babies were doing well. She followed their feeding and medication schedules to a tee, scooped the litter boxes, and gave them plenty of playtime and cuddles. They were relaxed and content when we picked them up - not stressed or anxious like they usually are after we've been away. Lahana's home was a perfect setting for the cats. It was clean, spacious, and had plenty of cozy spots for napping. She even had an assortment of toys and to keep them entertained. We will definitely be booking Lahana again the next time we travel. Her attentive, reliable, and loving cat care gave us great peace of mind to fully enjoy our trip. We highly recommend her pet sitting services to any cat owner - your kitties will be in the best hands with Lahana! Thank you!”
7. Elizabeth C.
“It was nice to be able to leave for 4 days knowing our beloved puppy would be in good hands. Liz’s dogs Pacha & Trevor are great buddies to spend a few days with. It was nice to see them romping around in tall grass together in the videos that were sent.”
8. Colby W.
“Colby was great! She made me feel comfortable about leaving my dog for a week. She got to know Daisy and supported her needs so she would feel comfortable away from home. Through out the week. I received updates and pictures. Daisy had so much fun learning and meeting new dogs.”
9. Kelly R.
“Kelly and her son did such an amazing job watching my baby Coco. I would definitely use Kelly again and would refer her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
10. Christina K.
“Christina was an excellent host to Curie, our 8yr old female Labradane ! She was very accommodating and communicated often on how our dog was doing. She spent quality time to get to know her better and make her feel at home. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a 'home away from home' for their four-legged family members!”
11. Kaitlyn L.
“So glad we found Kaitlyn! She is now one of our go-to dog sitters. It’s clear that she takes great care of her own dog and strives to do the same for others. She was eager to learn about and meet our pup’s needs, providing lots of care and attention, exercise and outdoor time. We could tell from the pictures that our dog Nyima was happy and got along with Kaitlyn’s dog Cedar. Couldn’t be more satisfied!”
12. Meghan C.
“We were in from out of town for a wedding, and weren’t able to meet before dropping our dog off. But Meghan instantly made us feel comfortable! She asked questions about how to best take care of our pup, and provided updates during Knox’s stay. Would definitely recommend booking with Meghan!”
13. Christopher L.
“Chris loves animals and I would trust him to take care of all of my pets! He is trustworthy, caring, and dependable. Highly recommend him!”
14. Kasey B.
“Kasey did such a fantastic job watching our pup, Lily! Lily got tons of exercise and love from Kasey, and we enjoyed all the pictures and videos that Kasey sent us! Lily was in great hands and we’ve already recommended her to friends.”
15. Julia M.
“Julia is very friendly and responsive. My dog Russell did very well at her place. The location is a bit of a drive from Lancaster NH. She really helped me out when I needed a sitter for the festival.”
16. Kim H.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Kim to anyone needing boarding or daycare for their doggie crew. I initially made boarding reservations for my two dogs, but plans changed when a 75 pound rescue came into my life. Kim was willing to board my entire crew of 3. Kim is conscientious, kind, patient, and accommodating. (One of my girls is sometimes uncomfortable walking on hardwood floors, even with trimmed nails. Kim put out yoga mats and a runner to help her feel more comfortable.) I would not hesitate to recommend her and Moose.”
