Pet Boarding Winchendon

“Andre and his family are such wonderful and kind people. They were very welcoming when we brought our boys over for their introduction before booking for the weekend stay. The updates throughout the weekend via text were a delight to see. As much as we missed the boys we felt so easy to know they truly were in great hands with Andre and family. We will definitely book again.”

About: My parents had a one year old dog when I was born so I started life with a canine sibling. A dog, or multiple actually, has always been by my side except between 7th and 9th grade, the loneliest two years ever. I lean towards the Irish Setter but I have raised Golden Retrievers, Boston Terriers, Yorkies and Standard Poodles. I currently have two Setters and one Standard. They speak fluent English and surf the Internet for creative ideas to keep mum busy. I am a retired high school teacher since one month and am looking for commitments on a flexible schedule. I want to be busy but not at the hectic pace that teaching requires. I spent 34 years in secondary education so teaching is natural for me. I have had a canine best friend for almost every of my 58 years and have done countless basic training classes. As a former division 1 athlete, I have an exercise centric lifestyle and thrive on being physically active. Retirement is leaving a void in my routine that I anticipate dog-walking will fill. I have a large property, the majority of which is fenced. The basement has a cage assembled, a cage in the closet and a large wooden pen that my three share when I am out. The furniture is dog friendly and I have enough leashes to walk a football team at once.

“Kimme took good care of our dog and had fun playing with her two pups.”

“Michelle took great care of Lucas during his stay and updated us with pictures each day. She was responsive throughout the rover process and pleasant to work with. Lucas and Henrietta made quick acquaintanceship, which is always a pleasure to see.”

About: I've grown up with pets,and started taking care of friends and family pets 10 years ago. They've come for the day, I've watched them while the family goes on vacation. The owners love that I'm with them all the time. I take them for walks, play with them in my yard and sit with them. I really enjoy being with animals. I'm available all day everyday. I'm building my pet sitting services. I can give your pet my full attention and give them the attention they love. I have a good sized yard that your pet can hang out in. I have great walking routes that your pet will love. I also have a good inside area dedicated to pets with a couch, and recliner that they are welcome to sit on.

About: My love for pets started 13 years ago when I got my first Samoyed during my freshman year of college. The following year, I welcomed a Husky into my apartment. After graduating, I became a cat owner as well and have cared for three cats over the years. Having lived with both dogs and cats for so long, I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m home most of the day aside from going to the gym. This gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and spend time with your pets throughout the day. I have a spacious home with a large yard where dogs have plenty of room to relax and play. Depending on your dog’s preferences and routine, they can spend most of their time comfortably indoors or enjoy more time outside in the yard. I’ll always follow your care instructions and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, they were always a part of my life, and caring for them came naturally. Both of my parents shared that same love for animals, so I was raised in a home where pets were treated like family—with patience, kindness, and lots of affection. That love has stayed with me into adulthood. I understand that every dog and cat has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I enjoy taking the time to help them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore, and there's always plenty of time for walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing—whatever makes them feel most at home. When your pet stays with me, they won't just be looked after—they'll be welcomed into a home where they're treated with the same love, care, and respect I'd want for my own pets. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. My schedule allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care, whether that's going for walks, playing in the yard, sticking to their normal routine, or simply giving them the attention and companionship they deserve. I enjoy making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and right at home while their family is away. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore under my supervision. I never leave pets outside unattended, and I make sure they always have fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of love and attention.

About: I have grown up with dogs, and I have been taking care of other people’s fur babies for three years! I love cats, dogs, and every animal in between. While I do have a 9-5 job, I am flexible in the evenings and mornings. I have open availability on weekends and a lot of flexibility on Fridays. I can board dogs at my house currently, and I am happy to come and care for them while you are away this holiday season.

About: I have been taking care of various animals and pets for my entire life. Over the course of 20 years, I have cared for a myriad of animals ranging from large dogs, small dogs, horses, cats, and many other farm animals for friends, family, and co-workers. I have also been hired for pet care that involved overnight home visits, dog-walks, and hosting pets in my home to care for over two weeks of time as needed. I am a teacher with my summers off, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I available for pet care during the week throughout various hours in the day time. I have a means of transportation and am able to safely transport your animals if needed. I have extra supplies of safety items possible needed for animals that is kept in my car as needed.

About: I've been around dogs my entire life. At about 5 years old, my father adopted my grandfather's two Beagles and they quickly became my best friends. Today, I have 2 dogs at home, one that's 17 and one that's 7. And still they're my best friends. For as much as I love dogs, it really does feel like they love me back. Whenever I go over anyone's house I hear " Wow he never behaves this well around people normally." Each dog is so unique and the most fun thing for me is learning what makes them wag their little tails! I work from home from my apartment and only have one roommate so I'm incredibly flexible when it comes to scheduling. I'm sure that I could make just about anything work given a small notice. I have a two room apartment and a kitchen. Playing and feeding is easy for me in the apartment, but I also have a park right near me, about a 5 minute walk away.

About: Hi, my name is Layton and I've been an animal lover my whole life. I've had furry family members since I was five years old and multiple re-occuring caretaking jobs, so I know how to care for your baby. From 2018 to 2020 I worked as a dog groomer and had the privilege to work with pups of all kind - big, small, young, old, excitable and laid-back. I especially love to provide YOU with a sense of comfort knowing that your pet is in wonderful hands. I am available for overnight sittings, drop-in visits, walks, trips to the dog park and even transports to the vet and groomer. Just let me know what kind of care your pet(s) need and I'll be there! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule for the time being. I am willing to take on weekly walks, occasional overnight sittings and longer term stays. I do not offer care at my home (I live with two cats that are not too fond of other animals). But, I can provide meals, walks, play and love for your pet in their own home!
