“I left my puppy Seven with Keitel and his family while I was on travel for work and everything went great. From the initial meet and greet I knew that Seven would be in great hands with him. Seven is an extremely busy GoldenDoodle who has a lot of energy. I got pictures daily and videos which was great. It was my first time being away from him so the videos helped my anxiety. 😊…. I have booked with Keitel again for a quick trip. I could tell that Seven loved being with Keitel too. When I picked him up he gave Keitel much love and respect. Animals know who are good to them and for them. It made my heart smile to see Seven react to him that way as we left.”

“Amy was amazing with my dog, Brownie. He can definitely be a barker, but he’s a sweet, lovable boy, and she was so patient and understanding with him. She really treated him like he was part of her own family. She kept me updated the whole time with messages and photos, which meant so much to me. I never had to worry about how he was doing. She even asked about his preferences and routines to make sure he felt comfortable and at home. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Brownie looked happy and relaxed, and that says everything. He totally didn’t miss me when I picked him up lol. You won’t find anyone like her. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat.”

About: For over 10 years, I loved and cared for my own beloved dogs before they passed away a few years ago, and for the past 4 years, I have been occasionally sitting for my neighbor's dog. I have a 6-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son who share my deep love for animals, so your pup will get plenty of gentle affection and enthusiastic playtime from our family! In our home, your fur baby will have a secure, fenced yard to explore. Whether they prefer high-energy fun or just lounging around and getting belly rubs, we adapt to whatever makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I am a Special Education teacher currently on summer break, which means I have a highly flexible schedule and open availability! My own children are in summer camp Monday through Friday during the day, giving me plenty of dedicated, uninterrupted time to focus entirely on your pet's routine, walks, and care. I am available for boarding and daytime companionship, ensuring your fur baby gets plenty of attention and love. As a SPED teacher, I bring patience, structure, and deep reliability into my pet care. I offer a very secure environment with a fully fenced yard for safe playtime. Because my husband works night shifts and sleeps during the day, our home maintains a wonderfully calm, quiet, and peaceful atmosphere during the daytime hours—perfect for dogs who get stressed by loud noises. In the evenings and weekends, my 6 and 7-year-old children join the fun, and they are incredibly gentle and respectful animal lovers. Your pet will receive 100% of our family's care and focus!

“Ariel assisted us with drop in visits for our cat. She replenished her food and water and was able to win her over after a few visits. We would definitely use Ariel again. She is responsible and caring, meeting her commitments. She came to our house for a meet and greet before we left town to ensure she understood what we needed. We left feeling that our cat was in good hands.”

I have also done drop in dog visits for a labrador retriever and med sized mixed dog, along with dog boarding for a small minature pincher, greyhounds, and a retriever. I enjoy animals and your pets will be treated as family members at my house. While I have no kids of my own, I am a foster parent so kids of all ages do come and go. I also sometimes host guests through airbnb, however no smoking is allowed in the house by anyone. My family used to own a small black dog that I helped walk and care for. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to working with you and your pets!

About: I'm a stay at home mom with plenty of time on my hands, and I like to keep busy. I love to get out of the house and take long walks. I have a nice big fenced yard and a spacious house. I love dog kisses and cuddles. I'm also a cat person and I know it's hard to find lodging for them when you go out of town. All pets deserve exercise and attention and I understand you have to work so let me take on some of the responsibilities. I'm excited to spend time with lovable animals, play fetch, brush coats and give lots of pets. I wake up early with my son before I see him off to school, so pets get breakfast around 8am. I make sure to give attention to all my animals as well as playtime as needed. Frequent potty breaks are provided and usually include short games of fetch or chase. Around 3pm when my son gets home from school we like to take a walk around the neighborhood for a little enrichment. In the evening pets are fed again around 6pm. I usually give a good brush to everyone and make sure to give thorough pets and a few treats before bedtime. I have a fenced yard without any holes to escape. I have a playful puppy to keep your fur babies company. When new animals I arrive I have a spare room set up as a safe place for them. We make sure to introduce them slowly and safely so everyone is comfortable. My puppy sleeps in her crate most nights, your dogs have the option to sleep with me or in a crate depending on your preference. My cats have a sunroom to escape to if our company is too overwhelming. Meaning everyone can have their own space without feeling threatened. I take the comfort and safety of my guests extremely seriously and do my best to ensure they are as happy as possible during their stay.
“Linda took great care in reviewing and understanding the needs of my pup. We did a brief introduction to be sure her pets and mine would get along and I was very comfortable leaving him with her. They took several walks so he would settle and he was relaxed when I picked him up. Will definitely be booking again! Thanks Linda!”

About: I worked at a boarding kennel for about a year (Andover boarding kennel) and since then I have been watching dogs, cats, birds etc ever since. It is a passion to work with animals and help people give their fur babies attention when their schedules don’t allow for it as often as they’d like to. I currently work for Derby Police Department and treat everyone’s fur babies as my own while they stay with me. I give my undivided attention to each and every pet as well as getting them worn out from all of the playing. If the owners will allow it, my dogs and cats are very sweet and love to play with other dogs so there are opportunities for socializing as well! You’ll always get updates through pictures during their stay with me as well as some extra spoiling. I work Monday through Friday 0800-1700, but I still ensure lots of play time and socializing happens during their stay! I also work training into their stay if there are any bad habits families would like their babies to stay away from or commands they'd like them to become more familiar with. This is done through positive reinforcement with treats and lots of praise. I have a specific room for the dogs to be crated. It’s climate controlled, a quiet location so they can feel comfortable and not at all anxious. Dogs and cats do not have access to any toxic chemicals or things that would harm them. Treats, food and toys are always approved by the owner so they know what their fur babies are ingesting and/or playing with.

I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own environment by giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I’m also respectful of your home—keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as you left them. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I always double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I stay aware of each pet’s behavior to ensure they’re happy and safe at all times. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you’re away.

I have also always had a pet since I can remember I am a teacher, so I currently have all summer off. have a lot of time hanging out and taking your dogs out and play with your dogs! I always make sure my animals have access to water and have time to use their energy and also socialize. These are very important for the health and wellbeing of a pet.

“Amy was amazing with my dog, Brownie. He can definitely be a barker, but he’s a sweet, lovable boy, and she was so patient and understanding with him. She really treated him like he was part of her own family. She kept me updated the whole time with messages and photos, which meant so much to me. I never had to worry about how he was doing. She even asked about his preferences and routines to make sure he felt comfortable and at home. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Brownie looked happy and relaxed, and that says everything. He totally didn’t miss me when I picked him up lol. You won’t find anyone like her. I’d trust her again in a heartbeat.”

“I cannot say this from the rooftops loud enough, but Kate was amazing! From the moment she got our dog Abbey, I received photos and updates throughout our trip. She was able to spot check a few things at our house when she picked up our dog and even checked on the cat without us asking. We could tell Kate cared a lot about our dog and was very considerate with the time to pick up our dog. We are grateful that our dog loved her and her pets so much, she slept like a rock after their visit! This makes our next stay out of town a breeze, because we know who we are going back to!”
