Give Your Pet the Best Care

At Playtime Adventures, we believe caring for your pet means caring for the whole family. Our approach is rooted in meeting your pet’s physical, emotional, and mental needs through play, companionship, and compassionate, professional care. Serving Dover, Portsmouth, Newmarket, Durham, and surrounding areas, we offer dog walking, cat care, and pet transport—designed to fit into your life. We also know that behind every beloved pet is a devoted human—with a busy schedule, a full heart, and a desire to give their pet the very best. That’s why we’re here. Whether it’s easing the stress of a long workday, supporting you during a life transition, or giving you peace of mind while you're away, our goal is to create balance and trust for your entire household.

Let’s Make Your Pet’s Day!

Every pet deserves a day filled with tail wags, brain games, and joyful zoomies! From tail-chasing to toy-stalking, treat-hunting to sunbathing, we turn every visit into a paw-sitively purrfect adventure. At Playtime Adventures, we blend fun with purpose—using enrichment, exercise, and connection to support your pet’s physical and mental well-being. We offer a range of services from dog walking to cat care to pet transport. It’s not just play—it’s play with a purpose. Let’s turn today into an adventure your pet will love (and maybe brag about to their squirrel friends).

What's Included

🐾 Exercise & Leg Stretches

We get those muscles moving! Your pup enjoys light stretching and active movement outdoors—because fresh air and exercise are essential for happy, healthy dogs.

🧠 Enrichment & Exploration

Walks designed for the mind. From on-leash games to sniffing trails and curiosity challenges, we turn every walk into a playful, enriching adventure.

💧 Fresh Water & Treats

Hydration and a tasty reward. We provide clean water and a well-earned snack after each walk to keep energy up and tails wagging.

🎓 Basic Training Reinforcement

Good habits made stronger. We gently reinforce manners like polite greetings, loose-leash walking, and focus-building during every outing.

❤️ One-on-One Attention

Your dog gets 100% of us. No pack walks here—just personal care and undivided attention, tailored to your dog’s needs and pace.

📸 Updates & Photos

Stay connected with your pup. We send fun, real-time updates and photos so you can see your dog enjoying their walk—even the silly zoomie moments!

🛡️ Safety First

Certified, bonded, and prepared. We’re trained in pet first aid and use secure handling at all times, keeping a watchful eye on your dog and their environment.

✨ And More!

It’s not just a walk—it’s care you can count on. From tailored play to gentle reassurance and everything in between, we deliver more than a service—we provide peace of mind.

What Our Clients Are Saying

David I.- Durham, NH

She is the GOAT of dog sitters! Excellent in every regard. Gave me total peace of mind as I left her with my 15-year-old terrier mix. My only worry was that she was so good with him, I don't think he missed me! Highest recommendation.

Lisa W.- Newmarket, NH

Stephanie is by far THE best pal to our poodle Kiki that Kiki has ever had. EVER. Stephanie is insightful, intuitive, and Kiki chose her from the second Stephanie stepped into our yard for the meet and greet. We’ve had the privilege of Stephanie’s dog whisperer skills and every single day she provides a new adventure for Kiki on her walks. Creative sniffing games, playing, walking, diversion opportunities when Kiki is grumbly about other dogs. I mean, we couldn’t be happier. Do not hesitate to bring Stephanie into your pet’s life. She’s remarkable.

Stephanie was in a word: superb. She took excellent care of my big Maine Coon during his first time away from me. She was efficient, communicative, and my big fluffy fur baby absolutely adored her. She did a fantastic job following his care instructions and even went above and beyond with playtime, brushing, and keeping an eye on if he was staying hydrated. I would highly recommend Stephanie, and look forward to having her take care of my fur ball again soon!
