Are you thinking full time or just an hourly contractor? Sorry I don't have a specific recommendation. My experience has been that gardeners know what they do. Landscapers generally don't know as much about gardens or gardening. My daughter has both, and I'm headed in that direction. There may be a lead through a local garden club. If you have two separate contractors, one of them should be or have an arborist in the group, IMO. Otherwise your shrubs may get an unexpected haircut with a hedge trimmer.
As I type, it occurs to me that the UNH Extension Service may know of people who fit your needs.
