“Very pleased with Heather's care of my dog. First time boarding with her. Echo all the other positive comments for her. Dog was happy and very tired with all the playing, attention”
“Suzanne gave amazing attentive service to our senior dog. Our dog felt loved, safe, and right at home. Suzanne communicated with us while we were away on how our dog was doing and if we had any questions. Would 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!”
“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.”
“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.”

We currently have two cats of our own so your pet will just fall into our routine each day. I live on a quiet side road without a fenced in yard. I'll take your doggie outside on a leash for potty breaks and walks. Your pet will be well loved.
“Faustine took our kids on with fairly short notice and one of our furry children is a little difficult when it comes to meeting new people. She handled it with grace and I think may have actually managed to convince our child that she wasn't so bad. Impressive! Will definitely be reaching out in the future if we need a sitter and Faustine is still at it. ❤️”
“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!”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Heather and her family. They took great care of him and let me know how he was doing. They were able to take him on relatively short notice which I really appreciate. Thanks!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Riggs than Ric! He was so kind and loving towards our old dog. He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”
“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!”
“Christy was awesome. Clearly the best person I could have hoped to leave Buddy with during our ski trip. She actually made a better effort to send pics and updates about my dog than I did for the parents of the 8 extra kids that spent the week skiing with us!”
“Once again our doodle, Jaxon, had a fun time at Alina’s. He loves being outside and playing I the snow and he had plenty of opportunities with Alina. His tail was wagging when we dropped him off and he was happy to see us at pickup. We love being able to drop Jaxon off when we travel to NH.”
“Kimberlie was fantastic! We left our pup with her for 4 days at the last minute and she was nothing short of amazing in her updates, structure, playtime and overall care she gave to Bernie. I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for someone to take care of their dog with as much love as they do...Bernie almost did not want to come back with us :) We will definitely be booking with Kimberlie again in the future, thank you!”
“Greta once again was absolutely amazing with watching our pup! He came back absolutely exhausted and happy from all the play time! We will continue to use Greta, could not recommend her enough!”
About: I have 1 dog of my own and love caring for yours while you're away! I have many years of pet sitting experience and have been very involved with several pet rescue groups. I am very comfortable administering medications and with any other special requests. Can't wait to meet your 4 legged family member! I am an educator and am off for holidays and the summer. I work during the day, but am available for early morning or afternoon/evening visits Mon-Fri and on weekends. I love spending time with animals and will treat yours like they're my own! I would love to take your dog for a special outing. I am very responsible and will send regular updates while you're away. As far as boarding in my home, it would be best if it is an older dog with a relaxed temperament. My dog is very sweet, but puppies stress her out. :) I am currently off for the summer, so I am home all day. I can work around your pup's schedule and will have lots of time to spend with them! I live at the lake and there are lots of great places to walk close by. If your dog loves swimming, there is a beach within walking distance. I am off on weekends and holidays, so I have lots of time for your pup! My dog goes everywhere with me, so I'll love spending time with yours! I live alone with my dog, so I have lots of time and attention to give. I am off during the summer and on holidays, so they can go out as much as needed!
“Needed last minute help with care for my dog and Susan and John were so helpful and accommodating as my needs changed. This was the second time I’ve had them watch my dog and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Sophie with them again.”
“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!”
About: I know how important it is to find the right person to watch over your pets. My home is a haven for dogs, with a fully fenced-in backyard where they can play, sniff, sunbathe, and explore safely. My Golden Retriever, Marshall, is a sweet and well-loved boy who adores making new friends. He loves to play with other dogs, nap on the couch, and splash in a pool on a hot day. I always make time for my dog whether it’s taking walks during breaks, playing in the yard, enrichment games, or sunbathing time (for the dogs, not me) I have a fully fenced in backyard that always has fresh water for the pups. There’s plenty of toys to play with, shade under a gazebo, and on a hot day, a mini pool to cool off in! The yard is treated with all natural, pet safe flea and tick deterrent.

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.
“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!”
“Kim was wonderful with my 2 cats and my rabbit. She also took the extra step to take care of the garden. I would definitely use her again and feel confident recommending her to our friends.”
“We booked Alexandra to pet sit for our cat for 10 days, while we were away. She was very professional and it was great knowing we had someone we could trust at our home. We will definitely book her again. Our cat was well taken care of by Alex. Thank You!”
“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!”
About: I’ve had a cat my whole life- life just wouldn’t be complete without them! I am very familiar with their mannerisms, although like us, I know they each have their own personalities! Love spending time playing and caring for these mischievous bundles of love.
“Brianna has been a fabulous companion for my dog Ava on her midday visits. She has allowed Ava to choose how much time to play or rest, and you can see the difference in how comfortable Ava has become in her presence. Highly recommended her!”
“Jane took great care of our furr-babies. She sent some pictures, were sure they were exercised/played with and cleaned up an “accident”. Your pets are in good hands with Jane!”

“Thank you Kim for taking care of Stella so well. I could tell right away that Stella felt very comfortable with you. The pictures tell the story. For a somewhat anxious dog, Stella looks relaxed with not a care in the world. Thank you for agreeing to board Stella in October. I have no doubt that she will be well cared for. I won’t hesitate to recommend you to my family and friends Thank you”
“Heather did a great job! She was prompt with communication & our pup was well cared for with picture updates through the day. It’s about a 40 minute drive round trip to highland mountain bike park and without Heather we wouldn’t have been able to bike together. Thank you Heather!!”
“Communicating with Suzanne was prompt and easy. Our dog had a meet and greet Saturday, he was very comfortable there. We had a day at the house and all was great. We will be scheduling overnights next.”
“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!”
About: My partner, April, and I have been caring for dogs our whole lives. We have experience working with different ages, breeds, temperaments, and varying levels of special needs care. We began our training journey when we rescued our two german Shepards and trained them as our service dogs. Our girls, Maya and Sadie, have grown so much in these past years! Watching the progress is very rewarding, so we want to extend that same reward to you, your pup, and your family. At this time, we offer dog walking, drop ins, overnight stays and boarding. At this time we don’t have openings for scheduling training sessions, but if there are behavioral concerns, please let us know and we can discuss how to support your pup. We understand everyone works different schedules. Our schedules are very flexible and we want to make sure your pet is able to be cared for without time restrictions. We offer morning, afternoon, and evening hours. We will treat your pup like our own. We will discuss what is most important to you in regards to ensuring the visit is safe in their environment. It is important to let us know of any medical or special need cares ahead of time so we can properly educate ourselves first. We will discuss any routines to be followed and review safety measures to follow.
“Very happy Lulu our puppy had her first Sitter) appointment and Lanny made her feel very comfortable and myself we got plenty of updates and pictures and Otis had 100% attention thank you so much for taking such good care of her today. We will definitely see you for another visit.”
“Janelle and Janelle’s home was just what our granddog Abby needed while we were at a wedding for a few hours. The fenced-in backyard was perfectly safe for exploring and they spent time together outside after dinner. Abby was happy and relaxed when we left her. Janelle was flexible about the pickup. Highly recommend!”
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.

I'm a stay at home mom so your pet will get lots of attention each day. I'll take special care of your furry friends! I'm a stay at home mom of three small children.

“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!”
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!
“Alina is terrific! She watched our golden doodle, Winnie, for 6 days over the Fourth of July week. Alina was flexible, easy to deal with, responsible, and loving, and she was so happy to get dropped off each day. We will be returning to Alina!”
“Jane is an outstanding dog sitter and person. We had schedule issues trying to accommodate a big family making us late. She was understanding and kind. This was the first time Rio was ever left with someone outside our family so were nervous. She gently greeted Rio, let him in her home with no hesitation like it was his own. We are so thankful for the exceptional care and attention she gave Rio. We are looking forward to more bookings with Jane.”
“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!”
“Christy was wonderful, and my dog (Alice) absolutely adored her! Christy is communicative, friendly, and has an obvious love for the dogs in her care -- Alice will definitely be back!!”
“This was the first time I used a dog sitting app, and the experience that my pup and I had was excellent! Kimberlie was very attentive to my dog's needs and even sent me pictures throughout the day. I have every intention of rebooking with Kimberlie again and highly recommend her and this service to anyone looking to place their pet in a safe and loving environment. Thank you, Kimberlie!”
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.

“Kim was punctual, attentive, and responsive to the needs of all my animals — even my not-so-friendly senior. Her calm and confident demeanor immediately put both me and my more timid Lab at ease. It’s clear she genuinely cares and has the experience to handle a variety of personalities with patience and skill. A sincere sorry from Levi and a big thank you from Otto!!”
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.
“Shelby is a super walker. My dog has some issues. He is super shy of strangers but gets over it easier when other pets are around. She brought one of her dogs along to help him adjust. It worked perfectly. I am so glad we found Shelby!”
About: I like dogs and cats. Doesn’t matter what I watch but cats are easier for sure! I live in Weirs Beach where many peopke walk their dogs.

About: I’ve had animals of my own since I was 9 years old. I’m a huge animal lover, and I was an in-home nanny responsible for children and pets with housecleaning duties.

I currently am only in college so I have a very available schedule! There are certain weekends where I will be unavailable- due to vacations and pre-planned family events. I have over an acre of fenced in yard, as well as a willingness to walk or travel with your pup to a dog park for their daily exercise as I do my own pups. My pups are super friendly and eager to make new puppy friends! I am also more than willing to be available for potty breaks and companionship such as play time and cuddles and plenty of petting to ensure they are comfortable and happy!

About: I am a current student in Medical School who has been dog sitting since high school. I have provided care for dogs and cats for various families on overnight trips. Over the past two years I provided care on and off for a household with two dogs, chickens, pigs, and gardens. I have worked in medicine and volunteered with the elderly over the past two years. I am available weekends and love to get outside (ideally with a dog). On weekdays I am happy to work around my class schedule to make sure your dog has plenty of care and time outside! I live in an apartment but have grass area outside. I also love taking dogs for walks or hikes. I am happy to take care of clients households as well, keeping the area clean, animals fed and walked, and plants watered.
About: I have spent lots of time with a family dog and have been a sitter for several breeds over the years, often through friends and family. I am always over the moon to meet and spoil (to the owners comfort) a new furry freind! I am currently a graduate student which allows me the flexibility to schedule quality walks and play time with your pups! I typically work from home 50% of the work week, so getting out for a walk in between computational work is a win win! As a dog walker I will make sure your pup has a positive high quality walking experience. If I am sitting, I will ensure all fur babies get the level attention and care they need to feel safe and happy.
About: I grew up with dogs, loved them, and played with them. Dottie is my husband's and my dog, and she is our best friend and a really sweet dog. I'm looking for work and am looking for something to help fill in time. I can walk your pet at most any time of the day. I prefer days and mid-afternoon. I am very safe with Dottie. I live near a busy street and will look out for your beloved friend's safety. Your pet's safety is important to me.

“Very pleased with Heather's care of my dog. First time boarding with her. Echo all the other positive comments for her. Dog was happy and very tired with all the playing, attention”
“Suzanne gave amazing attentive service to our senior dog. Our dog felt loved, safe, and right at home. Suzanne communicated with us while we were away on how our dog was doing and if we had any questions. Would highly recommend!”
“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.”
“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.”
About: I've taken care of many pets including my own dogs and cats through the years. I can bathe your doggie if you'd like and take him/her for walks. I'm a stay at home mom so your pet will get lots of attention each day. I'll take special care of your furry friends! I'm a stay at home mom of three small children. We currently have two cats of our own so your pet will just fall into our routine each day. I live on a quiet side road without a fenced in yard. I'll take your doggie outside on a leash for potty breaks and walks. Your pet will be well loved.
“Faustine took our kids on with fairly short notice and one of our furry children is a little difficult when it comes to meeting new people. She handled it with grace and I think may have actually managed to convince our child that she wasn't so bad. Impressive! Will definitely be reaching out in the future if we need a sitter and Faustine is still at it. ❤️”
“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!”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Heather and her family. They took great care of him and let me know how he was doing. They were able to take him on relatively short notice which I really appreciate. Thanks!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Riggs than Ric! He was so kind and loving towards our old dog. He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”
“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!”
“Christy was awesome. Clearly the best person I could have hoped to leave Buddy with during our ski trip. She actually made a better effort to send pics and updates about my dog than I did for the parents of the 8 extra kids that spent the week skiing with us!”
“Once again our doodle, Jaxon, had a fun time at Alina’s. He loves being outside and playing I the snow and he had plenty of opportunities with Alina. His tail was wagging when we dropped him off and he was happy to see us at pickup. We love being able to drop Jaxon off when we travel to NH.”
“Kimberlie was fantastic! We left our pup with her for 4 days at the last minute and she was nothing short of amazing in her updates, structure, playtime and overall care she gave to Bernie. I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for someone to take care of their dog with as much love as they do...Bernie almost did not want to come back with us :) We will definitely be booking with Kimberlie again in the future, thank you!”
“Greta once again was absolutely amazing with watching our pup! He came back absolutely exhausted and happy from all the play time! We will continue to use Greta, could not recommend her enough!”
“Needed last minute help with care for my dog and Susan and John were so helpful and accommodating as my needs changed. This was the second time I’ve had them watch my dog and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Sophie with them again.”
About: I know how important it is to find the right person to watch over your pets. My home is a haven for dogs, with a fully fenced-in backyard where they can play, sniff, sunbathe, and explore safely. My Golden Retriever, Marshall, is a sweet and well-loved boy who adores making new friends. He loves to play with other dogs, nap on the couch, and splash in a pool on a hot day. I always make time for my dog whether it’s taking walks during breaks, playing in the yard, enrichment games, or sunbathing time (for the dogs, not me) I have a fully fenced in backyard that always has fresh water for the pups. There’s plenty of toys to play with, shade under a gazebo, and on a hot day, a mini pool to cool off in! The yard is treated with all natural, pet safe flea and tick deterrent.
“Nicole was very good with Cozo. Since I was from out of town, there was a lot of coordination ahead of time that needed to happen nd she was very responsive and accommodating. I would highly recommend Nicole and her house for all your per needs.”
About: Hi there! I'm Robyn. I am an active, outdoorsy person based in Concord who genuinely loves spending time with dogs. I love exploring the neighborhood, hitting local trails, and making sure every dog gets the exercise and stimulation they deserve. I've grown up around dogs my whole life, and my family's Goldendoodle has been my greatest teacher when it comes to patience, play, and attentive care. As for availability, I work remotely, which means I have real flexibility throughout the week to accommodate your schedule. Whether you need a consistent midday walk or something more spontaneous, I'm able to make it work. Your dog won't be rushed, they'll get my full attention for every minute of our time together. I take pet care seriously and know how much trust it takes to hand your dog's leash to someone new. I'm committed to clear communication, reliable scheduling, and always sending you home with a happy, tired pup. Can't wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care has always been a big part of my daily life. I grew up with my family Goldendoodle where I walked, fed and played everyday. Even though I don’t have a dog right now since I’ve moved away from home, I still love being around animals and make time for long walks and outdoor time every day. I work a remote job so taking care of pets easily fits into my routine because it’s something I truly enjoy and miss doing regularily. When I walk dogs, I want to make sure they get both exercise and enrichment. I want to keep the pups walks safe, consistent, and fun, paying attention to their comfort, hydration and any cues they give me.
“Bielka was wonderful! Kaiser loved staying with her! She is very easy to communicate with and very kind! She understood Kaiser’s health issues and took them seriously. Kaiser loved the walks through the woods and the snowy paths!”
