“When our go-to to watch Penny was unavailable, Heather saved the day! She was incredibly responsive, sent pictures/updates throughout the weekend and made me feel at ease. Thank you again, Heather!”
“Christina took such wonderful care of Milo and Ellie while we were away. She kept us at ease with regular updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We would absolutely trust Christina again and highly recommend her”
“Faustine was great! There were some expected changes with the booking at the last minute (not her fault), and she communicated well and was flexible in order to make everything still happen. We'll definitely be using her services again! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our furbaby, Faustine! 😊”
“Kiana was truly amazing. I had a sudden family emergency that required me to go out of state. She went so far above and beyond during that time, while having no obligation to do so. From the beginning of the cats stay with Kiana, she had been so incredibly flexible, she agreed to watch them with only two days notice, and due to the situation evolving and becoming unpredictable, she was more than happy to allow me to extend their stay. She was the direct cause of so much stress relief due to knowing the cats were safe, and well taken care of. 5/5 human. As for her actual care of the kitties she again went well above and beyond anything anyone might think is going the extra mile. The cats were given the space needed to become comfortable and very quickly, and happily adapted to the new routine. I received frequent pictures and videos, she was very communicative, and because of her vigilance we were able to create a plan of action for one of the kitties who started throwing up more frequently than normal. She even went out and bought higher quality food for the cats, and implemented a structured feeing strategy so we could better assess the puking, which I doubt was an easy task since they both free fed before they were boarded. She kept me up to date at all times and provided regular, detailed updates. 5/5 for animal care as well. She is the best sitter/boarder I have ever had any experience with, by exponents, it’s not even close. Her service was head, and shoulders above anyone I’ve personally used before and far better than anything I’ve heard about other boarders. Choosing Kiana to care for your pets should be an insanely easy decision for anyone who wants their animals taken care of at the highest level of care, and wants someone that is just a straight up good human as well.”
“As always, Penny was wonderful looking after Ollie. Every time we go away we know that all he could not be in better hands. I highly recommend Penny to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter.”
“Suzanne is incredible. We received lots of updates and she took very good care of Abby. We had to extend Abby's stay due to a family illness and Suzanne was very accommodating. Abby certainly enjoyed her stay with Suzanne and Koda. We would recommend her to anyone”
“Kept us updated with frequent pictures, she clearly helped Cooper make himself at home. Very conscientious about our dog's wellbeing by asking for a "meet and greet" which I appreciated. Definitely recommend.”
“Heather was very quick to respond when I was looking for a dog sitter. She is very responsive and always kept me updated! My dog had a little upset stomach and she did give him some pumpkin puree :) I would definitely rebook with Heather and highly recommend!!”
“I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with Janelle and Bob! They are so caring and loving! They have a great set up with a fenced in backyard! I know that my dog is safe and well cared for when I'm away. I would highly recommend them to care for your fur babies!”
“Kim sent me multiple photos of my puppy while we were away and I knew he was in great hands. She took him to the park, ran him around the yard and played with other dog friends. Very professional and knowledgeable. We will be using her again for boarding.”
“Susan and John are wonderful. Very responsive, they sent pictures and communicated very well. I felt that my dogs were in great care. When I picked them up they were as happy as can be. I highly recommend them.”
“We are so grateful to have found Kim to care for our dog Mochi while we were on a trip! She is accommodating, communicative and kind. We did not have to worry about leaving our dog with her and knew that Mochi would enjoy being around her dog as well. We got lots of pictures and Mochi got lots of exercise and rest too! I would not hesitate to ask Kim for her help in the future.”
“Nicole is such a lovely person and we’re so glad to have found her! She took good care of our weirdo husky and he came home tired, which is no small feat! We can’t recommend her enough and will definitely reach out to Nicole again when we need doggy coverage in the future.”
“Jessica was outstanding and so trustworthy when it came to watching my Lola for a week while I was away. I was relieved to know my babygirl was having a good time and was safe while I was so far away. I would recommend Jessica to anyone in need of a sitter and I will definitely go back to her whenever needed !!!”
“Jodie took excellent care of my dog, Gremlin. She made sure he was walked and well-fed. He received a good brushing, along with a change of outfit. Jodie treated him like he was her own. We will definitely be booking again soon!”
“Bielka was great. She responded to my request quickly and was able to accommodate my pup last minute, when my usual sitter had to cancel. She took good care of my dog, and was able to handle her quirks and energy with seeming ease. When I picked up my dog, Bielka gave me a little summary of their time together and let me know how my dog did. She truly cared and loved her, and I so appreciated that. It's not always easy to find somebody who will provide that care and form a connection with your dog over a short period of time and it feels like Bielka did just that. My dog seemed totally at ease. I'm so grateful for Bielka and would 100% recommend her!”
“I recently boarded my dog with Daria for the first time, and I was a bit nervous since it was my dog's first experience staying in a stranger's house. However, Daria was amazing! She made my dog feel comfortable and at ease right away. The updates and pictures she sent showed how well my dog was adapting and enjoying the stay. Her kindness and attention to detail made all the difference. I highly recommend Daria for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter, especially for first-timers!”
“Enzo can be a shy guy and a little nervous but Lauren did everything to make him feel comfortable including checking in with me, which I truly appreciate. He came home happy and tired and we would use Lauren again!”
“Susan was such a wonderful sitter for our dogs Libby and Ginger. She’s clearly a dog lover, and kept us updated on their daily adventures with her. We have an older dog who sometimes needs medication management and she was very comfortable with the possibility of administering medication. Susan was a great communicator and we will definitely have our dogs stay with her in the future.”

“This was my first time using something like Rover, but I found an excellent match for my kitties in Olivia! They got to stay in their own home, I got daily updates on their care, and I came home to two happy, well-cared for cats! I could not recommend her more strongly!”
“Kate was fantastic, sent plenty of pics and my sometimes shy kitty hung out with her and got lots of pats which was wonderful. She was super communicative and helpful and I’d totally use her again!”
About: I have grown up with cats and have over 20 years of hands-on feline care experience. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to calm seniors. I truly love taking the time to play with and get to know each cat’s unique personality. Because every cat has different needs, boundaries, and preferences, I am skilled at adapting to whatever makes them feel most comfortable. You can count on me to follow all of your specific instructions thoroughly to ensure your kitty stays happy, safe, and stress-free while you are away.
“Autumn was fantastic and we would highly recommend her to look after your animals. Autumn is a great communicator and took care of all the details. She made our time away from our three cats easy as we knew they were being well cared for.”
“Kristina really helped us out with a last minute booking! She’s flexible, responsive, and respectful. She made sure our boys were take care of and even brought in packages so they wouldn’t get left out in the rain!”
“Thanks for taking such good care of our two nervous cats! We appreciate your flexibility and quick response time. We loved the pictures and our cats were in great spirits when we got home! Thanks so much!”
“Did an excellent job and our cats were very happy! Love the pictures she sent! We will definitely always have her come when we leave the house because the benefits were so good!”
“Jess did a wonderful job taking care of our bunny, Beep, while we were out of town. Jess was responsive, flexible, and just an all around great pet sitter. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Chris is fantastic. My cat Simon loves him, and Chris is very friendly, and professional. He goes the extra mile as well. He will bring packages in, and if he notices something wrong (we had a small leak in the downstairs bathroom he took care of it) He turned off the water and moved things from the vanity as well as shutting off the water. He let me know too. Chris does great work, and we like him a lot. Sandz Family”
“Betsy was a HUGE help to us while we were away on vacation!! She made drop-in visits to check on our fur baby, and we couldn't have felt more at ease! Our dog is very skittish around strangers, but Betsy was able to put her right at ease. Our dog is rather picky and won't eat very well unless some is there. Betsy accommodated this need and sat with her while she ate each day. She also sent us picture and video updates throughout the time we were away to let us know our baby was doing great! We couldn't have asked for anyone better to help take care of our dog, and we sure hope Betsy is available for our future needs since she helped us SO much!”
“Christina was awesome!! Not only a kind individual, but wonderful with our two pups! She offered to work on some training while she spent the day with them, took them to the dog park, and was very accommodating when our plans changed. We will definitely use her again for pet sitting in the future!!!”
About: I have had cats my whole life and have several regular clients who are cat only families. I can care for your cat at any stage of life, including those with complex medical needs. I'm not put off by their mess and will always leave their space clean. Whether your friend just needs food and a clean box or daily brushing and meds (including injections) I love them all. Reach out with any questions.
“So grateful to have found Caroline! She's taken care of my girls multiple times now and is always great at communicating and letting me know how they're doing. It feels great to not have to worry when we're away, Caroline is so wonderful and takes amazing care of our babies as if they're her cats. Thank you so much!!”
About: I've been a pet owner since I was a kid! I really enjoy animals, particularly dogs, and have cared for all manner of animals in my life.

I will make sure your pets are well-cared for, well-walked, well-watered, and happy for your return home. I am open and receptive to any specific care requests you may have.
About: From the comfort of your own home to the comfort of mine, a stress free environment can be provided to your loving pet. My knowledge of animal care does not just stop at fluffy fur I have the knowledge to care for your scaly family too.

“Heather and her family are friendly and happy to accommodate whatever pet-sitting needs I have. I like that the dogs get a lot of socialization time with each other, something my dog doesn’t get at home.”
About: Hello! I have taken care of my own, family, and friends' animals for over 15 years and those in the community going on five years. I've worked with most breeds and ages. Size does not matter whether your best friend is 5Ibs or 150Ibs! I have a flexible schedule and can work with you on times. Whether it's walking, visits and feeding or all of the above I'm happy to help. I have experience with senior dogs and their sometimes more complex needs, including medical. For all services I require a meet and greet first. For house sitting, I don't do over nights but can be there very early and/or late and happy to work from your home and give your dog(s) as much interaction and breaks they need. For daycare in my home, I require a meet and greet with my dogs, preferably on neutral ground such as a local park, or my yard if needed. Dogs are just like humans, sometimes they're best friends sometimes they aren't and my number one priority is the safety of all animals. Dogs need to be okay with kids. My children are very respectful and I've taught them from a young age how to interact with dogs and read their body language, and give them space. But I know not all dogs have had positive experiences with kids. Don't worry about size or puppy rambunctiousness- they are used to that! I have extra crates if needed or prefered. I don't do off leash, your dog may be great off leash and have awesome recall, but I'm a new person and your dog might be anxious or just not as focused with someone new. Again my priority is safety, after all this is your best friend and family member! I have ground tethers that give them a large range to free roam, explore and play. I also use 30ft leads for fun walks in woods or local hiking trails. Feel free to ask about cats too! I love cats and am first and foremost a crazy cat lady. I've sat for all ages and levels of feline pickiness. I've done meds, including injections for kitties too. I work from home and as a result have a flexible schedule. I take time out of my day regularily to walk, play and be with our dogs and yours, it's a great way for me to break up my day and get to know the great dogs in the community. When caring for your pets I take great care to be respectful of your space, only going where I need to for your animals. I make a point to clean any pet mess and ensure they are secure before leaving.
About: 🐾 Hi! I’m a mom to a wonderful 4 year old and currently work as a server. I’m looking to spend more of my free time caring for pets because animals have always been a huge part of my life! 🐾 I’ve been around animals almost my entire life, including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, guinea pigs (I cared for 9 rescue guinea pigs for nearly 5 years), and even a chameleon for about 5 years. 🐾 I don’t currently have pets of my own, so becoming a pet sitter is the perfect way to spend time with animals while helping families who need reliable care. 🐾 I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new. Your trust is something I take seriously, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love, patience, and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾✨ I have Monday-Wednesday off, varying things going on during those three days so availability will vary! Fridays I’m available anytime after 4! Saturdays & Sundays while I’m at work I have my mom and best friend on stand by to come check in and give potty breaks to any pets in my care! Although I don’t have a fenced in yard, there are plenty of parks around for exploring and play time, as well as some yard space just right outside my home if you don’t feel comfortable with your pup being brought elsewhere! My place isn’t too big but my home is their’s for as long as they’re here! I can give baths if needed, walks, snuggles, and playtime!
“What a wonderful place to take Chester for the day! It was so cozy I was kind of wishing I could stay for the day, too. Thank you Kim for your kindness and for taking such great care of Chester!”
“This was my first time ever using rover as a customer and I am VERY impressed!!! We were in the area for a few errends, and didn’t want to leave our pup home for 8hrs😂 I got AMAZING pictures, she’s super sweet, and bonus points for taking my request THE MORNING OF! Simba didn’t even want to leave 😭 he had so much fun and I think will sleep the entire 3hr car ride home!”
“My 2 dogs had a meet & greet with Nicole before spending the day at her home. There was a nice fenced in area and other dogs to play with. When I dropped them off for the day, they didn't even look back. She was kind enough to send photos during the day and let me know they were doing fine. I picked them up that evening - they were happy and tired!”
About: I grew up with dogs. They are my comfort place. Ever since I got a golden retriever at 10 years old, I've been in love. Now I care and love any dog in need of a friendly and homey place to stay while their dog owner is away. I have experience in extended time care for small dogs, like Yorkshire Terriers, Medium dogs, like Australian Shepherds or Pitbulls, and Large dogs, like Golden Retrievers. I also have experience training puppies and caring for older dogs, as well as dogs who take medication. I take pride in loving and caring for a dog like they are my own while under my care. I work from home, so I can stay with the dogs during the day mostly. I can take them for walks or expend some energy with play time to fit their needs. I have had dogs boarded at my house any day of the week, Sunday through Monday. On the weekends we have more free time to visit a dog park, play, or run errands together. During the days, I can go to your place and feed and walk them in the comfort of their own home if needed as well. I ensure the pups bring their favorite toys over and I take time to play with them and show them love. I have a lot of green space around my apartment where I can take the dogs out to the bathroom or walks on a leash, a path by the water walking distance to take them on further walks if wanted, and a dog park in walking distance to play. If at the owner's house, I make sure the dog has fun in their comfort place, but I also make sure to leave just as clean as I found it. I can stay for a little bit and let the pup run around the yard if possible, or I can take them on walks in areas they know by home.
About: Hi! My name is Charlotte. My boyfriend, our blue heeler pup and I just moved from Dover to Chichester. We decided it was time to upgrade Kota from a condo to a big yard. Safe to say, she loves it. Our house is located on about an acre, but far away from any main roads. We have no traffic on our cul-de-sac making it the perfect area for our girl to go outside and play. My schedule rotates and I am typically working a hybrid schedule. For the days that I am home, I am looking to watch a few pups to give other dog parents affordable pricing, but also give Kota and opportunity to play. When I go into the office, Kota goes to a doggy daycare more towards Dover. The socialization is amazing for her. So we want to give other pups the same opportunity. Feel free to message me with any questions about our house, Kota, myself or anything else. Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be fully present and attentive to the pets I care for throughout the day. Since my Blue Heeler is still a puppy, I’m already used to planning my day around potty breaks, playtime, walks, and training sessions—so adding another furry friend into the mix is something I’m well prepared for. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and care, no matter the time of day! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home: I offer a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for play, rest, and attention. I follow each pet’s routine closely—mealtimes, walks, medication if needed, and play—so they feel right at home. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and of course, cuddles and affection! In a client’s home: I’m respectful of your space and your pet’s usual routine. I maintain consistency with feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific care instructions you provide. I make sure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment, and I keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you're away.
“I am very happy to have left kiko with Suzanne and family. They took him to park as well to play and he got along well with their dog. Would definitely leave kiko with Suzanne and family again !”
“Our puppy had the best time with Greta! She went on lots of walks and loved hanging out with the other doggos. She was super happy and tired at the end of the day! Definitely will book again. Thanks Greta!”
“Darrion was a great pet sitter for our dog, Baxter! She was easy to communicate with and very friendly & easy going. We appreciated the tour of her house & yard as well as a meet & greet with her dogs and cat upon arrival, as it made us feel at ease about leaving Baxter with her. The text and photo updates throughout the day were reassuring as well. Baxter enjoyed playing with her dogs and cat. He was tired but happy when we picked him up, so we were happy as well!”
“Susan and John were great! Their home has an ideal set-up for dogs with indoor and outdoor play areas. Rosie was nervous on her first visit and they took special care of her. Would definitely ask them to sit her again!”
“Lindsey did a great job taking care of our 7 month old pup. She was flexible and willing to adapt when we asked of the possibility of going from a daycare booking to an overnight stay. Makita had so much fun playing with her dog and she took her to the beach; her first time there. She was completely worn out which made our 3 hr journey back home easier for her. She slept the entire way! I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again if the situation permitted it!”

“Althea took care of my border Collie, Melon, for the day, and had a great time in the snow, playing, and napping with the other pups. Got lots of pictures. Very flexible for dropoff/pickup and very responsive”
“Jodie took wonderful care of our tiny pup while we were out for the day. We had consistent updates during the sit and pictures of a very content puppy that gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy the day. Already booked the next sit, so happy to have found a wonderful sitter nearby!”

“Wow! When I reached out to Olivia I was a little nervous Because you never really know what your getting it’s the internet! SHE suggested a meet and greet which instantly put me at ease we met at a public place and my boy Odin loved her immediately he’s a little shy and she knew just how to talk to him and make him feel comfortable. I then took her to my house and also felt extremely comfortable Olivia has been punctual and more then accommodating. She sends me pictures during their visits which helps me get through my work day. Honestly can’t say enough good things!”
About: I have always been around dogs since I was a kid. Between my own, family members and neighbors, I have cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for many years and been able to adjust to each dog’s needs with no problem at all. I am great at tiring pups out with play or long walks or hanging with them if they are on the lazier side! I work part time in Concord so I’m looking to take care of dogs for fun and some extra cash! I am available differing days of the week depending on my schedule, but when I am free I will be able to tire out the pups with long walks or extended play sessions if they so desire! I will easily be able to navigate client homes and learn a dogs likes and dislikes quickly to make for a smooth and comfortable experience for the pups.
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also foster dogs and work closely with a local rescue, which has given me experience helping dogs adjust to new environments, build confidence, and feel safe. I'm comfortable working with reactive dogs and have a solid understanding of basic training, so I can reinforce good habits and provide calm, consistent care during walks and visits. Whether your dog loves long adventures, leisurely strolls, or plenty of playtime and cuddles, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, reliable hands. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I work evenings as a bartender, so I'm available most mornings and afternoons for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. My shifts are typically only a few hours long, which gives me plenty of flexibility, and I also have every other weekend off. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to and prioritize in my schedule. I always tailor my care to each pet's individual routine and needs. If your pet is staying in my home, they'll have the company of my friendly, well-socialized dog. Outdoor time is always supervised, and I can use a lead or crate dogs when appropriate for their safety and comfort. For overnight stays in a client's home, I would need to bring my own dog with me. She is well-trained, respectful, and gets along well with other dogs. I understand that this isn't the right fit for every pet, so I'm always happy to discuss or set up a meet to see whether it would be a good match beforehand. To make sure your pet has the best experience possible, I ask that owners let me know about any treat or food allergies, dietary restrictions, favorite toys, or anything they should avoid. I love following your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away.
About: I have been around and raised more than 5 dogs..I treat them with all the care amd respect they deserve. All dogs are different but i seem to find a way to achieve the trust of a dog early on . currently working full time but with part time hours..I will adjust my schedule accordingly when needed.I can always fit 20 minutes into a day off or afternoon my apartment has trails close by as well as a fenced in back yard but I will keep the pet on a leash at all times unless instructed otherwise.
“Zachary is always respectful, reliable, and has great communication. I always appreciate the updates and photos, and know that my dog is being well cared for while I’m away for work or whatnot. The best feeling. Thank you!”
About: Being a dog lover, I have always cherished the bond between humans and our canine companions. The unwavering loyalty, boundless affection, and playful spirits of dogs have captivated my heart from a tender age. My passion for dogs extends beyond simply enjoying their company; it drives me to provide them with the very best care and create enriching experiences that enhance their well-being. As a dog sitter, I am committed to providing a comprehensive and personalized service tailored to each dog's unique personality and requirements. Whether it's daily walks in the park, playtime in the backyard, or cozy cuddles on the couch, I strive to create a welcoming and stimulating environment where dogs can thrive. I believe that every dog deserves to feel loved, respected, and well cared for, and I approach my role with empathy, patience, and a genuine love for these extraordinary creatures. I’m currently an at home mom of 3 children under three years old. And I own a 4 year old mixed breed named Paris. I am available from 2:30pm through 9pm for daily walks and play time everyday. My preferred day-care hours are from 2:30pm through 10pm everyday. And my in-home overnight care is designated to Fridays nights into early Sunday Afternoons. I offer free roam or crated care in my home. All upon clients requests. Water is provided 24/7. Food will be given as quoted by owners. A variety of toys are available 24/7. I am very persistent on being out and about so walk times are within 1-3 hour intervals.
About: Over 2 years working at Puddleby on the Hill boarding kennel Lifelong dog and cat owner Experience with puppies, senior pets, and high-energy dogs Comfortable with large and small breeds Familiar with administering oral medications Experience handling multiple dogs safely Strong understanding of pet routines and behavior I'm a teacher, so my summers are very flexible and ideal for pet care. I have plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and sitting, and I enjoy being active outdoors. During the school year, I'm generally available evenings, weekends, and school vacations. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions before providing care. In a client's home, I do my best to keep pets on their normal schedule and make sure they have plenty of exercise, attention, fresh water, and affection. During walks, I stay alert to the environment, use secure leash handling, and prioritize your pet's safety at all times. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I have grown up with animals. For as long as I can remember we owned some type of animal, from fish to goats. We owned them. We always visited my families farms there were cows, horses, pigs and DOGS! I loved the dogs. The dogs and horses were my favorite parts! I was lucky enough to live on my aunts horse farm for a few years and help with the rescue pups that she would foster. She has taught me a lot about working with dogs as well as other animals and how to work with them together and being around each other. I have been dog sitting/boarding for a 10 years now. I have met many different dog breeds and with many different personalities! I would be a great choice for you and your fur babies! Schedule: I work from home as an entrepreneur! This gives me plenty of time to take pups for a walk, swimming, hiking or on an adventure ride! Care: I have been working with animals and dog for 15+ years. Safety if my main concern, for myself and your fur babies! I make sure to follow instructions left without question. While house sitting I ensure to leave a place well kept and more clean then when arriving!
“She was able to come off my dog very last minute for me. I am so appreciative she did a great job and walked her and sent me pictures and everything. Plan on using her again and I'd recommend her based on this!”
“I've had Celina over to check on my cat before, but this was the first time I booked her to walk my dog. She was great, took time to stop by and meet my dog ahead of time and helped a ton when we weren't able to be around for my dog's usual afternoon walk. My dog was thrilled to have someone still take her out and was much more chill when we got home. Celina is absolutely great with both my pets”
About: I have always been an animal lover and care deeply about pets. Spending quality time, playing with them, walking them, or just being around them brings me joy. I’ve been a pet owner for over 10 years, ready to make new feline or doggy friends. I work part-time during the afternoon but I’m currently available most mornings and nights of the week for pet-sitting, drop in visits, and overnight watching. Boarding currently unavailable but willing to spend time at your own personal home! I prioritize each pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I follow their feeding, walking, and play schedules closely, provide a calm and clean environment, and give them plenty of love and attention. I ensure they get daily exercise, mental stimulation, and cuddles if they want them. Your pets deserve to feel at ease even when you’re not around!
About: I grew up with dogs and now have 2 rescue dogs of my own. My favorite thing to do is to be outside with them in the yard or to go on long walks. I use positive reinforcement when training. I also help a rescue dog organization through social media. I love and care about all dogs. I teach dance and fitness classes and am ready to take your dog on long walks or play sessions! My schedule is flexible for quick check-ins, walks, play sessions and more. I am free most weekends for dog walks and in the summer, I am very flexible with days, nights and weekends as I'm a teacher. I have 2 dogs of my own and understand how to ensure dogs feel comfortable and safe in an environment. I will make sure to respect your dog's home and safe space, and do everything to ensure they trust me.
About: Petsitting for my neighbors was my first job as kid, and as an adult I continue to enjoy providing pet care services! I love being around animals and taking care of them! I have experience taking care of my senior sick dog. I am currently a student studying Business Management with a minor in Marketing in the UNH online program. As my school is completely online I have a flexible schedule and I am available Monday through Friday with pretty open availability. I currently work part-time in retail on the weekends and typically work during the day so I may be able to help Saturday and Sunday evening if needed. I am happy to provide care for your pet and ensure their safety within your home. I am currently living with my parents as I pursue my degree and am unable to board pets at my home.
“Andrea is wonderful! She is punctual and communicative with our pup’s daily walks. She is very reliable and clearly an animal lover, I do not worry about our pets when they are in her care. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very young, starting with our family dogs as well as walking or sitting for family friends throughout the years. I tend to the individual dog’s needs to ensure a positive experience built on trust, respect and fun! I work from home and my schedule allows for flexibility. I have the availability to be free during week days. I am also an avid walker and love to go on walks to explore new places. I focus on the individual needs of that animal to meet them where they are at. I am able to understand animal body language and act accordingly.
“Alex has been a godsend. I recently moved to the area from Australia, and she has been providing daily walks for my two golden retrievers, as well as housesitting when I travel. The dogs love her and are very well taken care of. Highly recommended!”
About: Hi, I have had animals throughout my life. I am a huge animal lover and even have taken 2 years of vet science because of the love of animals. I have work in the Nashua Humane Society for a couple of years as well working with dogs, cats, and small animals.I am also working another job but still pretty flexible. I also know how to do pet grooming as well and have some basic knowledge of animal nutrition. I've always loved taking care of animals, a huge passion of mine. I can't wait to experience taking care of different pets and knowing their personalities :) I’m currently working as an pet groomer once an ween and my schedule is pretty flexible so I can make a lot of things work when assistance is needed I always make sure all my clients are happy and healthy but something happens I always make sure I keep any local vets on hand if assistance is needed! I am dog groomer and full time mama but very involved and helpful husband who helps a lot and will come on my adventures cause he’s much big animal lover himself 🙂 At the moment I do not have my own house as I’m only doing house sitting but hoping once I get an house it will be fenced in or can build fenced yard!

“When our go-to to watch Penny was unavailable, Heather saved the day! She was incredibly responsive, sent pictures/updates throughout the weekend and made me feel at ease. Thank you again, Heather!”
“Christina took such wonderful care of Milo and Ellie while we were away. She kept us at ease with regular updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We would absolutely trust Christina again and highly recommend her”
“Faustine was great! There were some expected changes with the booking at the last minute (not her fault), and she communicated well and was flexible in order to make everything still happen. We'll definitely be using her services again! Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our furbaby, Faustine! 😊”
“Kiana was truly amazing. I had a sudden family emergency that required me to go out of state. She went so far above and beyond during that time, while having no obligation to do so. From the beginning of the cats stay with Kiana, she had been so incredibly flexible, she agreed to watch them with only two days notice, and due to the situation evolving and becoming unpredictable, she was more than happy to allow me to extend their stay. She was the direct cause of so much stress relief due to knowing the cats were safe, and well taken care of. 5/5 human. As for her actual care of the kitties she again went well above and beyond anything anyone might think is going the extra mile. The cats were given the space needed to become comfortable and very quickly, and happily adapted to the new routine. I received frequent pictures and videos, she was very communicative, and because of her vigilance we were able to create a plan of action for one of the kitties who started throwing up more frequently than normal. She even went out and bought higher quality food for the cats, and implemented a structured feeing strategy so we could better assess the puking, which I doubt was an easy task since they both free fed before they were boarded. She kept me up to date at all times and provided regular, detailed updates. 5/5 for animal care as well. She is the best sitter/boarder I have ever had any experience with, by exponents, it’s not even close. Her service was head, and shoulders above anyone I’ve personally used before and far better than anything I’ve heard about other boarders. Choosing Kiana to care for your pets should be an insanely easy decision for anyone who wants their animals taken care of at the highest level of care, and wants someone that is just a straight up good human as well.”
“Suzanne is incredible. We received lots of updates and she took very good care of Abby. We had to extend Abby's stay due to a family illness and Suzanne was very accommodating. Abby certainly enjoyed her stay with Suzanne and Koda. We would recommend her to anyone”
“Kept us updated with frequent pictures, she clearly helped Cooper make himself at home. Very conscientious about our dog's wellbeing by asking for a "meet and greet" which I appreciated. Definitely recommend.”
“Heather was very quick to respond when I was looking for a dog sitter. She is very responsive and always kept me updated! My dog had a little upset stomach and she did give him some pumpkin puree :) I would definitely rebook with Heather and highly recommend!!”
“Kim sent me multiple photos of my puppy while we were away and I knew he was in great hands. She took him to the park, ran him around the yard and played with other dog friends. Very professional and knowledgeable. We will be using her again for boarding.”
“Susan and John are wonderful. Very responsive, they sent pictures and communicated very well. I felt that my dogs were in great care. When I picked them up they were as happy as can be. I highly recommend them.”
“We are so grateful to have found Kim to care for our dog Mochi while we were on a trip! She is accommodating, communicative and kind. We did not have to worry about leaving our dog with her and knew that Mochi would enjoy being around her dog as well. We got lots of pictures and Mochi got lots of exercise and rest too! I would not hesitate to ask Kim for her help in the future.”
“Nicole is such a lovely person and we’re so glad to have found her! She took good care of our weirdo husky and he came home tired, which is no small feat! We can’t recommend her enough and will definitely reach out to Nicole again when we need doggy coverage in the future.”
“Jessica was outstanding and so trustworthy when it came to watching my Lola for a week while I was away. I was relieved to know my babygirl was having a good time and was safe while I was so far away. I would recommend Jessica to anyone in need of a sitter and I will definitely go back to her whenever needed !!!”
“Bielka was great. She responded to my request quickly and was able to accommodate my pup last minute, when my usual sitter had to cancel. She took good care of my dog, and was able to handle her quirks and energy with seeming ease. When I picked up my dog, Bielka gave me a little summary of their time together and let me know how my dog did. She truly cared and loved her, and I so appreciated that. It's not always easy to find somebody who will provide that care and form a connection with your dog over a short period of time and it feels like Bielka did just that. My dog seemed totally at ease. I'm so grateful for Bielka and would 100% recommend her!”
“Enzo can be a shy guy and a little nervous but Lauren did everything to make him feel comfortable including checking in with me, which I truly appreciate. He came home happy and tired and we would use Lauren again!”
“Bri was a great! Our girl was well cared for and we got regular updates. Bri was a great communicator and very flexible which made our vacation stress free. I would recommend boarding here.”
“Grace was amazing! She was able to accommodate our dog's personality quirks and we were able to rest easy while Basil stayed with her. She was kind and attentive and gave updates on how our pup was doing. Thanks to Grace we were able to fully relax and enjoy the family wedding we were in town for! I only wish we lived closer so she could be our regular pet sitter!”
“Greta provided great care for our independent minded and sometimes mischievous husky mix and was willing to meet us elsewhere for the drop off and pickup since we had some challenging transportation logistics. Good to know we have a great option for Moon!”
“Ashley was a very professional, attentive, and caring sitter. We left our dog with her for almost a week, and he came back very happy and tired. (He's still sleeping it off I think!) I would definitely recommend Ashley to others!”
