We Treat Your Fur Baby Like Our Own!

It can be incredibly nerve-racking and anxiety-inducing to have to board your beloved pet. The thought of leaving them in the care of strangers can be overwhelming and worrisome. From cozy sleeping quarters to engaging play areas, we strive to replicate the comforts of home as closely as possible. WE take the time to get to know each pet individually, learning their unique personalities, preferences, and needs.

About THE OWNER

Image of Nikki, owner of The Dog Mama 603

Hi, I'm Nikki

👋
I have been a pet sitter since 2013, providing my services to countless pet owners first in the beautiful city of Portland, Maine and now in Peterborough, NH. With a passion for animals and a deep understanding of their needs, I quickly gained a reputation as a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter.

I started this business because I believe that every animal deserves to live a happy and healthy life, and I love being able to make a difference in their lives.

I have over 7 years of experience working with dogs & cats of all breeds and sizes, and I have a deep understanding of their physical and emotional needs. I'm committed to providing a safe and secure environment for every pet in my care.

When I first came to New Hampshire as a nurse I needed a place for my baby Lenny to stay while I worked as I searched for a house with enough space and a fence for a German Shepard. Nikki and her family have gone out of their way to make Lenny feel like part of their family.

We started boarding our older dog Mags with The Dog Mama 603 a few years ago and they were able to also help with a new puppy. Our dogs love boarding with them and always come home happy and tired!
