“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”
“My English bulldog loves staying at Heather & Michael's, and they take great care of his needs (prescription dog food, needles twice a day, oral medication). They love him like their own and tolerate all his bad habits. And Heather has been so understanding of changing circumstances when I've needed to cancel or book at the last minute. I'm so glad we found them.”
“Toffee, my 3-year old golden retriever, had a good time staying at Joe’s place. She looks happy and healthy when we picked her up and she almost did not want to leave! 😅 It was wonderful to see Toffee made some friends while staying with Joe (16 days!). It is not easy to find a good pet sitter or a boarding service provider here around Upper Valley. We really appreciate the services Joe and his partner provided.”
“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!”
“Cara is the best dog sitter. Our Goldendoodle loved her stay so much, which I could tell by the daily pictures sent and communication from Cara. We look forward to more visits when/if we travel in the future!”
“Wonderful experience boarding overnight for our two goldendoodles. Ashley was highly responsive and sent frequent updates to assure us everything was going great. She was thoughtful about introducing her dogs and gave our dogs plenty of playtime outside. Highly recommend!”
“Hannah saved my wedding day!! Our scheduled dog sitter (not from Rover) cancelled on us two days before our out-of-state wedding, and Hannah not only filled in last minute, she might be our pups favorite person💖 She is incredibly warm, they took to her immediately, and we were so grateful 🙏 Got lots of photos of them just relaxing around her and were able to enjoy our wedding day stress free. Thanks so much, Hannah!!”
“Michelle was great with our Enzo. She sent lots of updates with pictures and videos and I know he was well loved. The day we picked him up he slept all afternoon and was such a happy dog. Will absolutely use Michelle again.”
“My dog was so happy, it was a perfect fit for him with the outside space and other dogs to play with. Greta was a great communicator as well and really appreciated having Manu there.”
“Faustine did an incredible job watching our high energy Aussie she made sure to send lots of cute pictures and updates and she certainly kept up with our fast paced boy! I highly recommend her for your Future trips and vacations to watch your dog!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and grew up in a family with them, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, and has informed our decisions on our land, with a fully fenced-in maintained & mowed yard of over half an acre, with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of friends, neighbors, and family, which has given me experience with different breeds, personalities, routines, and energy levels. My wife and I also have our own dog, Bunny, who has been with us since she was just 8 weeks old. She is truly part of our family—basically our daughter! We’ve put a great deal of time, attention, and love into raising her. She has attended multiple training classes, receives regular veterinary care and healthy meals, has more toys than she knows what to do with, and travels with us whenever possible. Because of these experiences, I’m comfortable caring for both large and small dogs and understand that every dog has different needs. I’m happy to adapt to your dog’s normal routine, whether that means energetic walks and playtime, trips to the dog park, practicing their training, or simply providing a calm and comfortable environment where they can relax. What I can especially offer is plenty of time and individual attention. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time with the dogs in my care. My wife is an AI scientist who works from home, so between the two of us, there is almost always someone around. Most importantly, we understand how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else’s care. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior, comfort, and wellbeing, and I’m happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how your dog is doing while you’re away. We would care for your fur baby with the same patience, attention, and affection that we give Bunny. We live on Farr Farm, a spacious former family farm. We have a fully fenced-in maintained & mowed yard of over half an acre, with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore. The yard is roughly half shaded by large mature trees and half open and sunny, so dogs can choose where they’re most comfortable throughout any activity. We’ve also set up outdoor enrichment and play options, including tug and pull toys hanging from some of the trees, large herding balls, and plenty of open space for running and playing. For dogs who benefit from a little extra security outdoors, we also have an optional leash run. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule, and my wife is a medical research scientist who works from home. Between the two of us, we have plenty of time and space to give the dogs in our care lots of attention and companionship throughout the day. Our dog, Bunny, is extremely friendly and loves being around both people and other dogs. She’s playful, social, and always excited to make a new friend. Because we don’t want her to feel lonely, we regularly take her to the dog park so she can socialize and play with other dogs. Seeing how happy she is running around and making friends is actually one of the reasons we decided we’d love to welcome other dogs into our home. Pet care is already a big part of our everyday life, so having another dog around fits very naturally into our routine. We have the time, space, and flexibility to give our guest dogs plenty of attention, outdoor time, play, and companionship, while also giving Bunny a new friend to spend time with. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Before caring for a dog, I like to learn about their routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, and any behaviors or triggers so I can keep their experience as familiar and stress-free as possible. On our property, when dogs are outside they’re either on a leash walking or in our enclosed large yard space, never bring left unsupervised. Dogs always have access to fresh water, and receive regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and pay close attention to how each dog is feeling, especially during hot weather or after exercise. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I’ll follow all instructions carefully, keep the home clean and secure, and provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“My dog has never been so content returning from boarding. It was evident that Rachael and her family took great care of her. I definitely would not hesitate to send my dog to Rachael again.”
“Emily took great care of our two older dogs. After our initial meet and greet we felt comfortable leaving our girls in her care. We loved the daily updates and many pictures she sent and they came back to us happy and relaxed. We would definitely book Emily again in the future.”
“Kim was great, she really helped us out last minute (the day of) and sent lots of pictures! He was super tired when he came back, she gave him lots of attention and exercise!”
“Ben & Laura’s service was absolutely top notch from beginning to end. The dogs loved being in their care, and they even went above and beyond to offer to bring them to our wedding venue for photos! We can’t thank you two enough for taking one less worry off our chests during our wedding week!!”

“This is the second time Sandy has taken care of our cats. They love her, even our one usually shy-with-strangers kitty. It's clear when we get home that they haven't missed us---which allows me to better enjoy our time away. I highly recommend Sandy's services.”
“Jordan did a great job looking after my cat and home! A tree fell and took out power lines leading to my place. Jordan contacted Golden Valley right away rather than telling me about it and leaving it up to me while I was 3000 miles away. I won’t hesitate to contact her first next time I have to travel.”
“Althea takes the extra time to make sure the cats are getting the best care! When she found that our cat had thrown up she not only cleaned it all up, but checked the house for more and kept us updated.”
“Jessica was an excellent dog sitter. In addition to feeding, play time and sending multiple pictures, she reached out about an allergy related rash my dog had developed and helped her recover. I would highly recommend her.”
“Eva did again an awesome job! This time we had a longer vacation, and she right away agreed not only to take care of our cat but also to feed the fish. Her communication was great throughout the entire time. I knew there was nothing to worry about. Everything was in perfect order when we got home.”
“Sammy did a great job looking after my energetic kitty for a few days. She came twice a day and played with her and sent me many pictures! I was nervous about leaving my kitty for the first time, and she put my mind at ease. Will book again!”
“Nadine did an amazing job with our cat. Lots of playtime and pets when she stopped by for an evening drop-in. She kindly sent videos and pictures too! We hope to use Nadine again in the future!”
“This is the second time Samantha took care of my kitty while I was out of town, and she did a wonderful job. She goes above and beyond to make sure my shy girl feels safe and comfortable. Will always rebook with her!”
About: I have owned a Labrador Retriever, Jack Russell and two German Shepherds and have dog sat many others. I have had twelve years of experience with dog sitting. I will treat your dog like family with lots of love, spending time with them and many walks and adventures to dog parks around the area. I will give them lots of treats. While spending time at your home will treat it as my home with keeping it clean and able to do little stuff around the house such as watering the plants and picking up the mail with no extra cost. I have a flexible schedule, which I am able to pet sit at last notice. I have a dog name Juno who is a six year old Labrador who is friendly and gets along with all dogs. I would like meet and greets just to know the dog before hand and the dog knows me and Juno before we welcome them into our home! We want to create a welcoming home to your dog by not being a total stranger watching them, helping your dog with adjusting as their family is away. I currently work as a nurse so on my days off I am usually at home hanging with Juno and going on walks or playing in the uard I have yard with a river in the back. My dog usually off leash but because of the no fence will keep your dog on leash for safety and lots of walks throughout the day!
“Cyan was so kind to our senior dog. She followed her lead, gave her treats and was so patient. We are so grateful that Cyan could care for our old lady dog while we were out for the day. She is a wonderful communicator and clearly an animal lover. I highly recommend Cyan!”
“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.”
“Tessa is so wonderful! Our dogs did extremely well with her for her 1st time meeting them. We appreciated her patience with the boys, and that she came from the distance that she did to meet and get to know them.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and have done house sitting for 4 years. I love doing this kind of stuff. I can walk them, go for walks all that fun stuff. Im doing babysitting right now but can house sit whenever and can be with the dogs/cats whenever. I am always free to take them out whenever needed. I will watch pets in your home and or/ stay in your home for house sitting overnight. I will keep them safe and follow any rules.
About: Cat Care Experience While my professional background is rooted in K9 training and care, my experience with cats comes from something just as meaningful — being a devoted cat owner and lifelong animal lover. As an adult, my wife and I co-owned and cared for two wonderful cats who were part of our family for about eight years with me and fifteen years for my wife. I cared for them daily — feeding, cleaning, playing, watching their health, and making sure they felt safe, loved, and comfortable in a home shared with our dogs (That was super fun on occasion in the Tradtional sense..haha.) Through them, I learned firsthand that cats need: 🐾 Patience and respect for their space ❤️ Gentle, calm handling 🏡 Consistency in routines to reduce stress 👀 Close attention to changes in behavior or health I may not come from a professional cat-training background, but what I do bring is the heart of a true pet parent — someone who understands how deeply we love our animals and how much it matters to know they’re being cared for with kindness and respect. Because of my lifelong love for animals, I treat every cat with the same level of care, responsibility, and compassion that I’ve given my own and that I’ve carried throughout my years working with dogs. When your cat is with me, they’ll be cared for not just as a client’s pet — but as family.

“Susan and John were great! We have a senior dog and a puppy and both felt right at home with them during their daycare visit. Thank you both for being our pup’s home away from home while we were on vacation and couldn’t take them with us on our day trip!”
“Our pup had the best time with Greta!! She came home super tired and happy :) Greta was great with communication and kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout the day. Will definitely book again!”
“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.”
“Abby was great- very accommodating and responsive and my puppy had a great time hanging out with her family and her farm full of animals! She gave me multiple updates during the day and my puppy came home nice and tired 😊”
“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”
About: With over 10 years of experience in pet care and a love for animals, I bring a personal touch to every pet sitting or walking service.

Whether it's early morning walks, mid-day play sessions, or evening cuddle time, I ensure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and love they deserve. I provide a safe, nurturing environment for pets both in my home and yours. In my home, pets are treated as part of the family—enjoying cozy spaces, supervised playtime, and daily routines that include walks, meals, and lots of affection.

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: Ive lived in NH all my life. I’m married and we have a three year old son. I decided to take on this new journey because I love dogs and animals in general. I have 2 wonderful dogs who are my babies and I love them very much. I’m flexible and reliable. I just enjoy being with dogs. Dogs are such loyal companions always there for you through everything. My favorite part of my day is coming home to see my dogs, tails wagging. I promise your pooch won’t be disappointed in our visits, I look forward to visits etc! Looking to take on as many clients as I can. Afternoons and evenings work best for myself and my family. I would be willing to do some occasional night sitting, weekend sitting if it works with my schedule. I would follow owners instructions and routines for each pet. Assuring that each pet is properly cared for. I look forward to taking care of your pets!
About: Hello! I'm Rita. I live in Concord, NH with my three little cats. I grew up in Portugal with my three other loved cats, Mia, Sebastião and Cherrie and a cute energetic Labrador named Sasha. Since I remember I always lived surrounded by animals..from dogs to cats, birds to turtles or fishes. That said, I know how to take care and offer happiness to any sort of soul. Playing and walking is my specialty. I love exercising and have a lot of energy - can go for long walks, it's one of the things I like to do the most. Besides that I have lots of love to give. I am a sweet and caring person, with a loving personality. Is there a better feeling than being part of the happiness of a fury soul? For me, there isn't. Looking forward to meet your pet! I am a SAHM and pretty flexible with schedules/time. I might have to bring one of my kids sometimes but they have been doing this with me since they were born. Walking, running, playing and cuddling, the foundation of a happiness of any furry soul. What they honestly want the most is simply lots of love!
“Jodie is absolutely amazing! Booked her last minute for two days of daycare for my puppy and she excepted right away. Her updates and communication throughout the day is absolutely awesome. I could not recommend a better person to watch your pet. I will be continuing to use her for all my daycare and boarding needs! If I could give her 10 stars I would!!”

“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!”

“Terrific service! Sandy was compassionate and careful with our elder dog and younger dog who had recent surgery and was in a sad mood. She sent regular updates which we appreciated. She is clearly comfortable with all situations and we feel we can trust her with our dog care. Highly recommend.”
“Megan was super-enthusiastic, clear, and interested in having the best possible interactions and relationship with Boo. At every step, I was reassured by her approach and the way things went. In my experience, you are in good hands when you entrust your pet to Megan, and in my case that adds up to peace of mind when it just wasn’t possible to be there myself.”
About: Everyone always asks me why dogs are so nice to me and quiet and I’m not really sure but I love all animals! So I hope you can trust me with yours! I work full time but after work I’m always available usually and on weekends. I’m very lenient towards everyone’s schedules so take your time! Don’t worry I will only be going to peoples homes to pet sit or walk because I live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs unfortunately maybe one day when I get my own house though!
“Althea is the best. Knowledgeable, responsive, flexible, and a great communicator. She has genuine affection for Boo and he loves maintaining such relationships. Plus, in my case, she’s hyper-local and knows the neighborhood. That makes it simpler to meet his needs.”
About: I've taken care of my and other's dogs and animals since age 10. I am a sizeable male who can handle larger breeds of dogs with pulling issues etc. From tall to small I teach for all. I care for my three dogs and daughter's cat 7 days a week, including feeding, medicating, providing mental and physical stimulation (play and training). I take my dogs out multiple times a day while home. We play together often and work on some type of training for at least fifteen minutes a day.
About: I have dog sat and walked dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for the last eight years and approximately two years ago adopted my American Bully, Cane Corso mix named Clementine. I even trained her to be a therapy dog through a lot of training and education. I am comfortable working with rescues as well. I love working with all breeds, but specifically I love working with bully mixes too!! I am comfortable with medication administration, as well as working with dogs that have recently had surgery. My dog had TPLO surgery and took six months to recover so I’m willing to support in that process as well! I also have experience working with rescue dogs. I currently work full-time as a social worker, but I am looking to help with pet sitting on the weekends or dog walks earlier in the morning. In my home, my dog is on a strict schedule which includes brushing her teeth twice a day, administering medication in the morning, a structured walk and enrichment. For your pup, I can do whatever is needed!! my dog is also crate trained, and has been training to be a therapy dog. I am comfortable with dogs that are reactive to other dogs as well. I am able to do boarding in my home but your dog would have to be comfortable with my dog so we would have to do a meet and greet. I do not have a fun fenced in backyard, but I live on a rail trail and take my dog on walks there often. I am also comfortable with dropping in visits, walks, and overnight pet sitting.
“Samantha was wonderful with Edith and gave us great updates about their walks together. She was thorough and considerate and we will definitely rebook with her when we’re back in the area. Thank you very much, Samantha!”
About: Hello! I have a lifetime of experience caring for animals, both domestic and wildlife. Most of my time spent caring for dogs, cats, and horses, however I have also cared for many other species of domestic/farm animals and wildlife in captive and/or rehabilitative environments. I am a New Hampshire native and professional photographer/educator. I have informally been a pet-sitter for many friends/clients over the years, I hope to have more reviews to reflect that experience soon. I look forward to providing first-class care for your pet while you're away. 🫶 My goal is to care for your pet(s) as though they were my own. Safety and comfort are top priorities while providing a fun, friendly presence in your honor.

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.

While house sitting I ensure to leave a place well kept and more clean then when arriving!
About: Pet Care Experience — From Horses to Cats to Dogs My life with animals began long before it became a profession. At 14 years old, I started caring for horses — feeding, grooming, riding, exercising, and treating them as family. Horses taught me early lessons in patience, responsibility, and the importance of daily, consistent care. They also showed me how powerful the bond can be when animals are treated with respect and love. By 16, that passion grew into the dog world when I had the opportunity to be mentored by a close friend who was a Police K9 handler. That mentorship changed my life and set me on a path that would define my career. I began training at a K9 school in my hometown in New Hampshire, where I learned the foundations of K9 behavior, obedience, care, and handling of working dogs. I poured everything I had into learning the craft. After a year of dedicated internship and training, I taught my first class at just 17 years old. From that moment, I knew this was more than a job — it was a calling. Over the years, my experience grew into becoming a Police K9 handler in New Hampshire, followed by serving as a trainer and instructor for the NH Police K9 Academy through the Working Dog Foundation. I worked daily with high-drive working dogs and their handlers, focusing on discipline, safety, trust, and performance in real-world environments. After completing my full-time police career, I continued my K9 journey overseas, spending eight years in the Middle East providing private K9 handling and instruction in support of Army operations and Private Security detachments. Working in demanding and high-stress conditions further refined my skills and reinforced the importance of calm leadership, consistency, and deep respect for the dogs that depend on us. At the same time, I never stopped helping everyday families with their pets. Training and caring for family dogs — from energetic puppies to older companions — has always been just as important to me as working with professional K9 teams. I believe every dog deserves structure, patience, and loving guidance so they can thrive as well-behaved members of the family. Alongside my deep dog experience, my connection to cats comes from being a devoted cat owner. My wife and I shared our home with two amazing cats for about eight years, caring for them daily and loving them as part of our family. Living with cats taught me to appreciate their unique personalities, their need for gentle handling, respect for space, and the importance of calm, consistent routines — especially in a home shared with dogs. While my background with cats is personal rather than professional, it comes from genuine love and hands-on care as a pet parent. Through every chapter — horses, dogs, and cats — one thing has never changed: I treat animals as family. Today, with 27 years of experience centered around K9 training, handling, and care, supported by a lifetime of loving animals of all kinds, I bring a calm, confident, and compassionate approach to every pet I work with. Whether your dog needs structured care, your cat needs gentle attention, or your pet simply needs someone who will treat them like their own, I’m here to provide that level of trust and commitment. When you leave your pet with me, you’re not just choosing a sitter or caretaker — you’re choosing someone who has built his life around animals and who will care for yours with the same respect, patience, and love I’ve given my own. I am currently able to accommodate week days and most weekends to assist our communities. I can be available pretty much any time during the day as I own my own company that is newer to the industry it is supporting. 🛡️🐾 Safety, Trust & Environment For me, caring for animals has always been about more than just meeting basic needs — it’s about earning trust, creating calm, and treating every pet with the same respect and love I give my own. With decades of experience around animals — especially working dogs in high-responsibility and high-stress environments — I’ve learned that pets thrive when they feel safe, understood, and cared for with consistency. Whether it’s a high-drive dog, a shy cat, or a senior companion, I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routines, and comfort level. In my care, your pet will have: ❤️ Genuine compassion and patience 🏡 A calm, structured, and loving environment 🦴 Proper exercise, enrichment, and rest 🍽️ Attention to feeding routines and health needs 👀 Close supervision and awareness at all times I believe animals should never feel rushed, ignored, or unsafe. I keep their spaces clean, secure, and peaceful, and I handle every interaction with calm confidence so they know they’re in good hands. Because of my background with working dogs and my life with pets like Aries, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your animal with someone else. I don’t take that lightly. When your pet is with me, they’re treated as part of my family — with the highest level of care, respect, and responsibility. Most importantly, I listen to what matters most to you, learning your pet’s daily routines and needs so I can mirror your care and make their time with me feel just like home.

“Wonderful couple. My dog, Willow, had such a great time with them and their fur baby, Emily, I don't think she missed me at all. Lol. I'm so happy I found someone I trust to care for Willow when I travel.”
“My English bulldog loves staying at Heather & Michael's, and they take great care of his needs (prescription dog food, needles twice a day, oral medication). They love him like their own and tolerate all his bad habits. And Heather has been so understanding of changing circumstances when I've needed to cancel or book at the last minute. I'm so glad we found them.”
“Toffee, my 3-year old golden retriever, had a good time staying at Joe’s place. She looks happy and healthy when we picked her up and she almost did not want to leave! 😅 It was wonderful to see Toffee made some friends while staying with Joe (16 days!). It is not easy to find a good pet sitter or a boarding service provider here around Upper Valley. We really appreciate the services Joe and his partner provided.”
“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!”
“Cara is the best dog sitter. Our Goldendoodle loved her stay so much, which I could tell by the daily pictures sent and communication from Cara. We look forward to more visits when/if we travel in the future!”
“Wonderful experience boarding overnight for our two goldendoodles. Ashley was highly responsive and sent frequent updates to assure us everything was going great. She was thoughtful about introducing her dogs and gave our dogs plenty of playtime outside. Highly recommend!”
“Hannah saved my wedding day!! Our scheduled dog sitter (not from Rover) cancelled on us two days before our out-of-state wedding, and Hannah not only filled in last minute, she might be our pups favorite person💖 She is incredibly warm, they took to her immediately, and we were so grateful 🙏 Got lots of photos of them just relaxing around her and were able to enjoy our wedding day stress free. Thanks so much, Hannah!!”
“Michelle was great with our Enzo. She sent lots of updates with pictures and videos and I know he was well loved. The day we picked him up he slept all afternoon and was such a happy dog. Will absolutely use Michelle again.”
“My dog was so happy, it was a perfect fit for him with the outside space and other dogs to play with. Greta was a great communicator as well and really appreciated having Manu there.”
“Faustine did an incredible job watching our high energy Aussie she made sure to send lots of cute pictures and updates and she certainly kept up with our fast paced boy! I highly recommend her for your Future trips and vacations to watch your dog!”
“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!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and grew up in a family with them, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, and has informed our decisions on our land, with a fully fenced-in maintained & mowed yard of over half an acre, with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of friends, neighbors, and family, which has given me experience with different breeds, personalities, routines, and energy levels. My wife and I also have our own dog, Bunny, who has been with us since she was just 8 weeks old. She is truly part of our family—basically our daughter! We’ve put a great deal of time, attention, and love into raising her. She has attended multiple training classes, receives regular veterinary care and healthy meals, has more toys than she knows what to do with, and travels with us whenever possible. Because of these experiences, I’m comfortable caring for both large and small dogs and understand that every dog has different needs. I’m happy to adapt to your dog’s normal routine, whether that means energetic walks and playtime, trips to the dog park, practicing their training, or simply providing a calm and comfortable environment where they can relax. What I can especially offer is plenty of time and individual attention. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend a lot of time with the dogs in my care. My wife is an AI scientist who works from home, so between the two of us, there is almost always someone around. Most importantly, we understand how much trust it takes to leave a beloved pet in someone else’s care. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior, comfort, and wellbeing, and I’m happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how your dog is doing while you’re away. We would care for your fur baby with the same patience, attention, and affection that we give Bunny. We live on Farr Farm, a spacious former family farm. We have a fully fenced-in maintained & mowed yard of over half an acre, with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore. The yard is roughly half shaded by large mature trees and half open and sunny, so dogs can choose where they’re most comfortable throughout any activity. We’ve also set up outdoor enrichment and play options, including tug and pull toys hanging from some of the trees, large herding balls, and plenty of open space for running and playing. For dogs who benefit from a little extra security outdoors, we also have an optional leash run. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule, and my wife is a medical research scientist who works from home. Between the two of us, we have plenty of time and space to give the dogs in our care lots of attention and companionship throughout the day. Our dog, Bunny, is extremely friendly and loves being around both people and other dogs. She’s playful, social, and always excited to make a new friend. Because we don’t want her to feel lonely, we regularly take her to the dog park so she can socialize and play with other dogs. Seeing how happy she is running around and making friends is actually one of the reasons we decided we’d love to welcome other dogs into our home. Pet care is already a big part of our everyday life, so having another dog around fits very naturally into our routine. We have the time, space, and flexibility to give our guest dogs plenty of attention, outdoor time, play, and companionship, while also giving Bunny a new friend to spend time with. I treat every pet as if they were my own. Before caring for a dog, I like to learn about their routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, and any behaviors or triggers so I can keep their experience as familiar and stress-free as possible. On our property, when dogs are outside they’re either on a leash walking or in our enclosed large yard space, never bring left unsupervised. Dogs always have access to fresh water, and receive regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and pay close attention to how each dog is feeling, especially during hot weather or after exercise. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I’ll follow all instructions carefully, keep the home clean and secure, and provide regular updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“My dog has never been so content returning from boarding. It was evident that Rachael and her family took great care of her. I definitely would not hesitate to send my dog to Rachael again.”
“Emily took great care of our two older dogs. After our initial meet and greet we felt comfortable leaving our girls in her care. We loved the daily updates and many pictures she sent and they came back to us happy and relaxed. We would definitely book Emily again in the future.”
“Kim was great, she really helped us out last minute (the day of) and sent lots of pictures! He was super tired when he came back, she gave him lots of attention and exercise!”
“Ben & Laura’s service was absolutely top notch from beginning to end. The dogs loved being in their care, and they even went above and beyond to offer to bring them to our wedding venue for photos! We can’t thank you two enough for taking one less worry off our chests during our wedding week!!”
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.
