“Another fun visit at Alina’s for Jaxon! We picked him up early to take him for a hike in the mountains. He was excited! He always seems well-rested and calm when we pick him up from Alina’s. He’ll be back!”
“Janelle and Bob took very good care of Maggie. She looked happy and well cared for when we picked her up. She loved running around in their fenced in yard. We will definitely trust them with Maggie again. Highly recommend.”
“Kim was wonderful and went above and beyond to make Ronin and Winnie comfortable. They had a great stay. She sent pictures and updates frequently. I highly recommend Kim!”
“Liam had a wonderful time with Brittany and her family and we look forward to using her again when we travel. She sent photos of the fun things they did together, including many hikes in the snow. It was so nice to know that Liam was well taken care of and we didn't have to worry about him while we were traveling.”
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. My house is a perfect location for me to watch your pet if you go to a concert at Bank of NH Pavillion or go on the Mt Washington cruise ship or Train ride! Open for anything since I’m retired and have the time now. Prefer to watch pets in my own home but will watch in yours if your more comfortable I don’t have fenced in yard. I would need to walk dogs on leash or keep cats inside. I do have yard for dogs to wander around as long as they are tethered and I’m watching them
“We would definitely recommend Jane to care for pets. She is warm and friendly and our Bella was well cared for. She sent an update and photo while we were away which was really appreciated.”
“Lynda was a lucky find. She loves dogs, and has one of her own, so she only takes in one additional dog. She took excellent care of Gypsy. During our trip, she sent us several pictures of her dog with ours, and a short video of the two dogs playing together. We will definitely use her again when next we travel. And I would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a kind, compassionate and expert dog-sitter. Thank you, Lynda!”
“Hannah was communicative and friendly during Lexie's stay! She was confident in her ability to care for our dog even though we could not do a meet and greet because we were traveling from out of state. Dropoff and pickup were easy and quick. Thank you Hannah!”
“Hailey was fantastic with our pups. She sent us pictures and updates for them to help set our minds at ease. There was plenty of room outside for our dogs to run and play. When we picked up our dogs, they were happy and playful. They were very clearly well taken care of. We will definitely use Hailey again.”
“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”
“Highly recommend! We have a 10 month old Irish Setter puppy and had her set to go to a kennel. We found the kennel was awful, but we had to leave her as we were heading out of the country the same day. I found Gabrielle and Sara through Rover and they responded immediately. They went over and picked up our girl first thing the next day and took great care of her for two weeks. I regularly received pictures and updates. She was well taken care of and happy pup when I returned home. I highly recommend them.”
“They took great care of my little Maya for two weeks, accepting the booking mere days before my trip. They were pleasant, professional, and provided many updates that all reflected my happy, and comfortable little girl. I wouldn't hesitate to rebook with them again in the future. Thank you!”
About: To those who don't know me already my name is Duffy and for the last five years I have worked in both Daycare, Boarding, Training and as a Veterinarian assistant/tech taking care of more then a hundred dogs and cats in a single day. I have helped in training new puppies all the way to helping care for our senior pets, while giving owners peace of mind that while they are away, they know that no matter what part of life their pet might be in, that they will be cared for by someone with experience and love for their pet. I currently work part time at a veterinary clinic in order to gain more knowledge and experience when it comes to pet care in case of any emergency that may arrive. At this time my availability for boarding is between Wednesday-Sunday. I am also flexible on longer stays if needed for trips upon request. I have a fully fenced in yard for your pet to play in and be to be kept safe. I have two dogs that are under 25lbs and are 10 years and older. Depending on your pets age and play style they may or may not be interested in playing but can coexist. If your pet is dog aggressive, that is not a problem since I live in a home with two floors and can keep them separated without any worry of them having a problem.
“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!”
“Kate and John were so awesome! They really know dogs and made us feel so confident that our Penny would be safe and comfortable! We will definitely request their services in the future.”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. My home life has always included at least two pets at a time. I currently have a Great Dane and black lab as well as two cats. I am capable of any task with any animal of any breed. My hobbies—such as horseback riding—include animal care. My number one priority is the client and the pets. Currently, I am a college student currently on my summer break. With no classes until fall semester, I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! Unfortunately, I am not able to host your animals in my home. However, in a client’s home I will be sure to take care of the pets in whatever means they desire. I will make sure to respect the boundaries of your home and privacy all while ensuring your pet(s) are walked, fed, cared for, and played with plenty!

About: I have cared for all types of dogs big and small, and have lived, trained, and babysat dogs since i was little! I love animals, and currently have a flexible schedule to be able to care for yours. I treat them as if they are my own, and will love them with every ounce i have! I will show up in any weather, and have no problems giving medication. I have no fears of any size dog, and am usually the one found with the dog rather than people at any gathering ha! I am super careful, super thorough, and very reliable. I currently do work, but with my schedule I have a lot of time available during the day and afternoons, some nights. I am lucky in that my schedule is flexible, and can do daily visits, walks, short/long term, and potentially overnights. I am able to do overnights with your dog at my house, or happy to come to you as well. I have a big fenced in yard, and live across the street from a giant beautiful park with trails and fields to play in. I have friends who live on my street who, if ever needed, are beyond trust worthy if your pup ever needs anything. My boss also lives next door! I also live right near two other parks, and beaches. I am in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks as well. I grew up with dogs my whole life, so my parents are also near by. Im also close to two animal hospitals

About: I’ve owned pets my entire life and began volunteering with rescues 8 years ago. I have fostered several puppies in preparation for their new homes, and I’ve done pet care for friends, family, and neighbors for many years. If I’m not caring for other pets, I can usually be found spending time with my own dogs who are 7 and 8 years old. I work 4 days a week and would love to provide care during my 3 off days. I’m also available for some walks and drop-in visits before work in the mornings. I plan to provide the same kind of care to your animals that I do to my own. I know that pets are family and I want to make your absence a little easier for them.
“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!”
“Dawn did an excellent job with Andy, our cat. We appreciated the daily photos that were sent. Dawn was on time to every drop in visit. We highly recommend Dawn, and will use her again. Thank you again, Dawn!”
“I have a very shy dog and after trying 2 other sitters he finally warmed up to Sarah! I was surprised how quickly he did take to Sarah, she has away with animals! She even spent some of her own time coming to my house to get rico comfortable wirh her b4 there 1st over nighter which I was very impressed with! I can honestly say i feel very confident leaving rico in Sarah's hands!”

“Sue is a very responsible pet sitter! She contacted me because one of my kitties was in hiding & she'd been looking for an hour! She is a very caring pet sitter - & with shy kitties, she is wonderful.”
“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Woody during my week long vacation. I felt very comfortable with her in charge and Woody really liked her as well. She did everything that was asked of her and she often went above and beyond. She sent pictures and kept up with my trip and even left the lights on for me when I was on my way home. I would certainly book Jessica again and highly recommend her.”
“Martha did a great job of looking after my cat Osiris while I was away for the holidays. She sent daily pictures as requested for my peace of mind, reached out promptly when there were any issues, and was very understanding and accommodating when my planned pickup time got a bit wobbly due to travel issues. Will definitely be booking again the next time I need a sitter.”
“Cassandra was wonderful with our rambunctious dog and easygoing cat. She was flexible and reliable, communicated clearly, and sent great pictures. We came home to happy animals. Would definitely book Cassandra again!”
About: Cats have always been a big part of my life, and I’m very comfortable caring for all personalities—from playful to shy. I’ve raised two abandoned newborn kittens, which taught me patience and attentive, detail-oriented care. I’m experienced with feeding routines, basic medications, and keeping litter boxes clean and fresh. I focus on making sure each cat feels safe, respected, and comfortable in their own space while you’re away.
“Cleo appreciated all the love and attention and I appreciated how dedicated Beth was (making sure Cleo had her meds on time as well as lots of love while I was away). She was super flexible when my plans changed and went above and beyond to look out for Cleo.”

“Alina was so fantastic! We spent a few minutes introducing our dogs on drop off. Then I was off and Daisy was taken on an awesome adventure walking all around Portsmouth. By the time I picked her up, Daisy, normally full of energy, had clearly had a good time and was ready for a nap, a rare sight.”
“Kim is the absolute best. We've tired a few sitters for our Abbi (Golden Retriever) before finding Kim. No need to look any further. Leaving Abbi with Kim was like having an experienced, dog loving family member watch her. Kim sent pictures and updates throughout Abbi's stay. I highly recommend Kim and will definitely book her again.”

“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.”
About: I have had a dog at least 20 years. We occasionally have a Labrador a week at a time, he has full run of the house. I do not work, so I am home most of the time. I do local Arts Markets, but those aren't long days. A dog would get lots of attention. I have a fenced in back yard that has plenty of room for playing. The house is one floor, which would be easier on older dogs.
“Brittany was a wonderful sitter! She was so thoughtful in making sure our pup Winnie was comfortable with her, taking her for walks and giving her 1 on 1 time. She was very communicative and easy to coordinate with. It was such a relief knowing Winnie was in good hands. We’ll definitely be reaching out again when we’re in the area!”
“Soleil had a nice time at Hailey’s home! She offered doggy day care services and was very caring and communicative as a host. She had a very sweet dog named Misty who was also welcoming and got along well with my pup. Lovely property with plenty of space for dogs to roam.”
“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.”
“Christy was so great and caring with Louie! It was truly a worry-free time for us when we had an event that didn’t accommodate dogs. Next time we’re in the area, we would have no hesitation to call on Christy again!”
“Jen was amazing in every way! She sent us regular updates and took great care of our pup while we were hiking for the day. We are excited to have our dog stay with her again!”
“Kate and John were incredible in looking after our black lab Pepper! We were visiting Conway from CT and needed a couple of days to visit area attractions with our kids. Their proximity to downtown Conway was perfect for us. Both days Kate and John were ready for us upon arrival and sent messages and pictures throughout the day. They even took Pepper on a nice long walk with their own dogs, which was super nice! I would highly recommend Kate and John if you need a sitter in the Conway,NH area.”

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.
“Katie did great with my German shepherd puppy! She was super flexible and willing to work with my odd work hours. My pup came home completely worn out! Would definitely use her again!”
About: (If boarding with us we can do free pick up and drop off Welcome to our home! My husband, Zach, and I are lifelong animal lovers and understand how important it is to find a safe, loving place for your pet while you’re away. We live in a spacious home with both upstairs and downstairs areas, giving dogs plenty of room to relax and feel comfortable. I prefer well-trained, housebroken pets. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Dogs staying with us will enjoy regular walks and lots of attention. If your dog enjoys car rides, we can also go on adventures to local walking trails, parks, or other pet-friendly outings with your permission. Whether your pup prefers playtime, cuddles, or simply a quiet place to relax, we’ll do our best to make them feel right at home. We also have a cat named Phoebe. She is friendly but generally keeps to herself and stays out of the way of visiting pets. I provide frequent updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is being well cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! (Also if it a house sitting it will be me gabby who does those!) Pet care is my full-time profession, which means I have the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of schedules — including early mornings, evenings, weekends, and even last-minute requests when needed. I take pride in being dependable and responsive, so whether you need consistent daily visits or occasional check-ins while you’re away, I’m here to help. My goal is to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. I understand that routines can change, and I’m happy to adjust accordingly to meet your needs. Just send me a message with your preferred schedule, and I’ll respond promptly to discuss availability and create a care plan tailored specifically to your pet. Your peace of mind and your pet’s well-being are always my top priorities. I look forward to working with you! When caring for your pet in your home, my top priority is to maintain a sense of consistency and security by following their established routine as closely as possible. I understand that pets thrive on familiarity — with their surroundings, feeding times, walking schedules, and the comforting rituals they’re used to. By preserving these routines, I help ensure that your pet feels safe, calm, and confident in your absence. I take the responsibility of entering someone’s home very seriously and treat every space with the utmost respect and discretion. I’m mindful of your home’s cleanliness, privacy, and any specific instructions you leave — from alarm codes and feeding schedules to favorite toys and bedtime habits. I also provide regular updates, including messages, photos, and notes about how your pet is doing, so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Whether it’s administering medication, monitoring behavior, or offering extra snuggles to ease separation anxiety, I’m committed to giving your pet the highest level of care and attention. Above all, my goal is to create a trustworthy and stress-free experience — for both you and your pet — by providing compassionate, dependable care in an environment where they feel most at ease: home.
“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: Your dog will stay in a calm, family home — not a kennel. I have gentle, respectful children who are very comfortable around dogs, creating a warm, home-style environment with plenty of natural companionship. For safety reasons, all dogs must be friendly with children. I want every dog to stay happy and healthy! Please make sure your pup is up-to-date on RABIES VACCINATION and PROTECTED AGAINST FLEAS. You’ll receive daily updates with at least 4 photos (and often videos as well), so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have extensive experience with dogs of various breeds and temperaments and focus on individualized, high-quality care — from medications and senior support to extra playtime and affection. In good weather, dogs enjoy several hours outside for fresh air, play, and enrichment. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time to provide attentive, hands-on care throughout the day. Our day usually starts around 7:00 am. The last potty break is typically around 9:00 pm, unless a dog needs or asks to go out later. Dogs are fed according to their usual routine. After meals, they always go outside, followed by backyard playtime. I try to keep each dog’s normal schedule as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and settled. I’m home most of the day, so dogs are never left alone for too long (no longer than 2 hours) Potty breaks are provided every 2–3 hours (or more often if needed). All dogs must be fully potty trained! Accidents happen and it's ok. BUT if a dog marks excessively, has repeated accidents, there's a $100 fee. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a non-fenced yard. When weather allows, we spend a lot of time outdoors. The yard is set up for dogs to enjoy safely — we have plenty of toys, a wading pool in warm weather, and a long tie-out cable for dogs. Dogs are never left alone outside. If your dog is crate trained and if you want to, you dog can sleep in a crate- you may bring your own. If your dog is not crate trained or if you don't want your dog to sleep in a crate and instead sleep in its own bed/couch/floor- they are more than welcome to do so! But you will be responsible for damages if any occur!(dogs may act differently in a new environment). A minimum damage fee is $100 Again, because this is not a kennel,this is a family home!

I provide loving, reliable care that keeps tails wagging and owners worry-free. From playtime to cuddles, your furry friend will feel right at home while you’re away. I’m attentive to details like feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions you provide.

I work part time at dunks which makes my schedule flexible so that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. I am typically available mornings, evenings, and weekends, with additional availability on select weekdays depending on prior bookings. I plan my schedule to ensure each pet receives consistent attention, timely feedings, walks, and companionship. For pets requiring multiple visits per day, I can accommodate early morning, midday, and evening check-ins when arranged in advance. Because I work part-time, I am able to dedicate focused, unrushed time to each visit, making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after. I always communicate availability clearly and provide updates to ensure smooth scheduling and peace of mind for pet owners. My grandfather, Sid Lovett, was instrumental in my decision to make a career out of caring for animals. Safety and well-being are my top priorities. I monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates regularly, including photos and messages for peace of mind. I also ensure the home remains secure and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner. My goal is to make each pet feel comfortable and cared for, just as they would with their family.

I follow their routines closely, including feeding times, walks, and play sessions. At a client's home, I respect their space and follow any specific instructions or routines the pet is used to. I make sure the environment is safe by removing any hazards. I also give them regular check-ins to ensure they are happy and healthy, and I am always available for cuddles and attention!
“Michele was absolutely wonderful! She was able to come walk our dog on very short notice. She took a lot of care to make sure our puppy had what she needed and was on time. She was a great communicator and we would gladly hire her again :)”
About: i see all pets are an extension of the family, and sometimes is the glue that keeps the house together! having a little paw friend takes a whole village to raise and i’d love to be apart of you village and assist with any and all 4 legged needs (or 2 i don’t discriminate) I’m a hip hop dancer on my free nights and a budtender/store manager most nights! My first part of the day i would love to fill by assisting and care for pet needs before i hop skip to my 2nd job i’m always one to monitor you little friend and spend quality time, building that trust and bond! they are called a man’s best friend for a reason
About: Dogs and cats love my hands-on, dependable care. Whether it’s timely feeding, active walking, tossing a frisbee or tennis ball or a soothing snuggle, your beloved dog will love to see me. You can rest easy knowing your companion is in good hands. I am available for overnight sits with advance notice as well as drop-in visits. Weekdays I can drop in as well as evening visits. I am also available for walks. Please note if you are farther than 15 miles from Bridgton, I will require reimbursement for fuel expenses. I am able to care for small dogs in my home but prefer to care for pets in your home due to restrictions in my HOA.
About: I have over 10 years experience with sitting cats, dogs and other small animals. Most of my pet-sitting clients are repeat families I’ve connected with through the local community. I have experience with extended in-home pet sitting, including overseeing household upkeep while clients are away. I am comfortable administering any oral medications needed, with provided instructions and tips. I love keeping you updated with photos and videos while you’re away and making sure your pet is happy, relaxed, and thriving! I have a flexible work schedule to be able to stay with your pets, or visit a number of times through out the day, to help accommodate your needs. I have experience in others homes where the pets feel most comfortable, and usually have a routine I can help maintain while your away! I also will attend to any other home chores like house plants, small pets like fish, or any problems that arise I will be sure you are aware right away.
“Ashley is so caring and thoughtful! She wants me and my dog to be comfortable, and really understands animals and thier needs. I feel very safe having my dog be taken care of by her! Thank you Ashley!”
About: I have been caring for animals basically my entire life. It's not unusual for me to spend two weeks at a clients home to watch their dogs while they are on the road, vacation etc. I have experience with my own animals as well. I've raised many types of animals including but not limited to dogs,cats, reptiles, farm animals, etc. I was the person that fed them, walked them, provided comfort and performed any other necessary tasks needed in order to make sure the animals needs are met. Currently I have a very open schedule. My schedule is open to play, watch, feed, walk or whatever you need me to do. Occasionally I have a meeting or appointment other than that I am free. I will make sure your pet is safe while in my care whether it be on a walk or playing outside and I will supervise your pet around any other animals.

“Another fun visit at Alina’s for Jaxon! We picked him up early to take him for a hike in the mountains. He was excited! He always seems well-rested and calm when we pick him up from Alina’s. He’ll be back!”
“Kim was wonderful and went above and beyond to make Ronin and Winnie comfortable. They had a great stay. She sent pictures and updates frequently. I highly recommend Kim!”
“Liam had a wonderful time with Brittany and her family and we look forward to using her again when we travel. She sent photos of the fun things they did together, including many hikes in the snow. It was so nice to know that Liam was well taken care of and we didn't have to worry about him while we were traveling.”
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. My house is a perfect location for me to watch your pet if you go to a concert at Bank of NH Pavillion or go on the Mt Washington cruise ship or Train ride! Open for anything since I’m retired and have the time now. Prefer to watch pets in my own home but will watch in yours if your more comfortable I don’t have fenced in yard. I would need to walk dogs on leash or keep cats inside. I do have yard for dogs to wander around as long as they are tethered and I’m watching them
“Hannah was communicative and friendly during Lexie's stay! She was confident in her ability to care for our dog even though we could not do a meet and greet because we were traveling from out of state. Dropoff and pickup were easy and quick. Thank you Hannah!”
“Hailey was fantastic with our pups. She sent us pictures and updates for them to help set our minds at ease. There was plenty of room outside for our dogs to run and play. When we picked up our dogs, they were happy and playful. They were very clearly well taken care of. We will definitely use Hailey again.”
“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”
“Highly recommend! We have a 10 month old Irish Setter puppy and had her set to go to a kennel. We found the kennel was awful, but we had to leave her as we were heading out of the country the same day. I found Gabrielle and Sara through Rover and they responded immediately. They went over and picked up our girl first thing the next day and took great care of her for two weeks. I regularly received pictures and updates. She was well taken care of and happy pup when I returned home. I highly recommend them.”
“They took great care of my little Maya for two weeks, accepting the booking mere days before my trip. They were pleasant, professional, and provided many updates that all reflected my happy, and comfortable little girl. I wouldn't hesitate to rebook with them again in the future. Thank you!”
About: To those who don't know me already my name is Duffy and for the last five years I have worked in both Daycare, Boarding, Training and as a Veterinarian assistant/tech taking care of more then a hundred dogs and cats in a single day. I have helped in training new puppies all the way to helping care for our senior pets, while giving owners peace of mind that while they are away, they know that no matter what part of life their pet might be in, that they will be cared for by someone with experience and love for their pet. I currently work part time at a veterinary clinic in order to gain more knowledge and experience when it comes to pet care in case of any emergency that may arrive. At this time my availability for boarding is between Wednesday-Sunday. I am also flexible on longer stays if needed for trips upon request. I have a fully fenced in yard for your pet to play in and be to be kept safe. I have two dogs that are under 25lbs and are 10 years and older. Depending on your pets age and play style they may or may not be interested in playing but can coexist. If your pet is dog aggressive, that is not a problem since I live in a home with two floors and can keep them separated without any worry of them having a problem.
“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!”
“Kate and John were so awesome! They really know dogs and made us feel so confident that our Penny would be safe and comfortable! We will definitely request their services in the future.”
About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. My home life has always included at least two pets at a time. I currently have a Great Dane and black lab as well as two cats. I am capable of any task with any animal of any breed. My hobbies—such as horseback riding—include animal care. My number one priority is the client and the pets. Currently, I am a college student currently on my summer break. With no classes until fall semester, I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! Unfortunately, I am not able to host your animals in my home. However, in a client’s home I will be sure to take care of the pets in whatever means they desire. I will make sure to respect the boundaries of your home and privacy all while ensuring your pet(s) are walked, fed, cared for, and played with plenty!
“Andrea is very attentive and caring and has a wealth of knowledge and experience with dogs. She was sensitive to the needs of my elderly pup and went the extra mile to accommodate her. I highly recommend Andrea.”
“Christina was really great with Cosmo and is experienced in dog behaviour and handling. I was nervous as Cosmo hasn't stayed in a kennel before but she handled it great and Cosmo had a great time! She was detailed in asking questions to ensure she had all the information to provide the best care for him.”
“I’m am so glad we found you! My baby had so much fun with your family. She slept the whole night, which is not the usual for her. She usually wakes me up at 3/4 in the morning to play before I go to work. I would definitely recommend Michelle!”
