Kristen Gonzalez (Gildea)

Owner & CEO

Starting at the young age of 2, I grew up in a very pet-friendly household with bunnies, cats, dogs, and fish. I was always that kid coming home with stray or sick animals that needed help — my parents LOVED that! Between high school and college I held several positions on horse farms, took on many pet sitting clients, dog walking partners, and worked at Tufts University in the Large Animal hospital.

I graduated from Becker College in 2014 with a Bachelor of Science in Veterinary Science and a minor in Business Management. After college I pursued a professional career in the biotech industry for 5 years, putting my passion aside as a hobby. In July 2019 I left the corporate world to become a full-time animal caretaker once again!

Away from my clients, I'm a full-time mom to my three girls (6 months, 3, and 12), a wife, and pet mom to an American Staffordshire Terrier named Meatball, a Pitbull mix named Cannoli, and an off-the-track thoroughbred named Daisy.

Dog Walker & Pet Sitter

Hi to my fellow animal lovers and pet parents! My name is Heidi. I grew up in the Monadnock Region and have strong familiarity with the Southern NH area. Since I can remember, pets have been a part of my life and I don't remember a day without a furry friend being present. I have always had a strong connection with animals and I'll forever be amazed by the unspoken language that creates that bond.

I grew up with dogs and cats. Currently, my partner and I have two dogs, three cats, a few fish friends, and a whole lot of rabbits (of course with the conversation always being 'we should get more animals, right?'). I mainly have experience with the animals listed above but also have minimal experience with equine companions.

Thank you for the opportunity to meet with and work with you and your pets. I look forward to it!

Hello! My name is Christine, and I love being around animals! I have worked with all kinds of animals: dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, etc. I have years of experience working at barns, pet sitting, and general animal care.

I have a cat named Myrtle, and despite her face in the picture she is a love — she just doesn't enjoy being picked up a whole lot. I love being outdoors, horseback riding, and meeting new pets and discovering their personalities. Thank you for allowing me to care for your pet!

Dog Walker & Pet Sitter

Hi, my name is Angela! I have lived my life surrounded by animals and wouldn't want it any other way. I have had domestic and exotic pets and have experience with a wide array of animals and animal behavior. I went back to school in my 30's for my Bachelor of Science in Wildlife and Conservation Biology, which only increased my fascination and love of animals both wild and domesticated.

My household consists of a mischievous mini pig, a hyperactive Frenchie, a curmudgeonly tabby cat, a 21-year-old blind dancing bird, the laziest python that ever lived, an aged but zen gecko, and a loving, mostly house-broken husband. It makes for a fun and full life!

I am so grateful to get to be a part of your pets' lives!
