Dog Boarding in Downtown, Portland, ME

“Alison is fantastic! My dog Porter had such a great time with her. Her communication, willingness to run/exercise with Porter, and her flexibility was wonderful. Such a relief to know that my dog is comfortable and enjoying himself hanging out with Alison as much as I enjoyed my vacation! Highly recommend!”

“Sarah is amazing, wonderful at communitating, sent lots of pictures and a video she was also super flexible when snow made our travels time unsure. When we picked Lola up she was happy as could be ?”

“We had a wonderful experience with Alma, who invited our Whoopie into her home and family. When possible, Alma also arranges a meet and greet before the stay to ensure a good fit. Thank you so much Alma! We hope we can meet again and reunite dogs and people.”

“Rose was amazing! We feel so fortunate to have come across Rose on Rover. We immediately felt comfortable entrusting her with our Maggie. Rose kept us up to date with cute photos and messages throughout Maggie’s stay. She handled Maggie and all her issues with ease and a smile. She even won our stubborn Maggie’s affectation which is high praise from Maggie! I would 100% use Rose’s service again and recommend her to everyone.”

“Benny was sad for 2 days after I brought him home from his "vacation"!! I think he had more fun at Vicky's than I had in Mexico! I'm sure he can't wait until the next time I go away; I hope she'll be available again. As we drove away from her house, he stared out the window and whined! He almost never whines! Her dog and mine played for days straight until their energy ran out. She has a fantastic fenced backyard and plenty of dog toys (all of which Benny promptly pulled out during our meet-n-greet). She also sends photo updates while you're gone, which were so cute. Awesome experience! Hope we can do it again.”

“Jessica was terrific with Nemo; took him on walks and played with him endlessly. Nemo was so happy such that he did not appear thrilled to leave - he was a dog on vacation! I will definitely book Jessica again if I’m in Portland. Thanks for taking care of Nemo!”

“River was an amazing sitter for Juno. She was highly communicative, flexible, and sent tons of great photos of Juno playing with her friends and another doggo. I’ll definitely look to book River anytime I need a sitter in the future. Picture perfect rover experience!”

“Gigi was able to watch Charley last minute, was very reliable and provided frequent updates. Thanks so much Gigi!”

“Emilia was great! She provided the perfect amount of updates and pictures for us! We would definitely ask her to care for our puppy again! ❤️”

“Elizabeth is awesome! We left our chihuahua with her for about 2 weeks while we were out of town, and we felt so comfortable knowing our little baby was in such a loving home, with someone who adores dogs as much as Elizabeth does! She sent us pictures, videos, and sweet little updates everyday, and we even had the opportunity to FaceTime with our little angel 🐾 We forgot to pack our dog’s winter coat, and it got quite cold, but Elizabeth had an extra coat that she bundled her in to make sure she was safe and warm on their walks through Evergreen. Also, our little pup gets nervous when we leave her and sometimes won’t eat because of it, but Elizabeth HAND FED her! And then she ate her whole dinner like that. Can you believe that? If that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about how much Elizabeth cares, I don’t know what will. One more way that Elizabeth went above and beyond that really meant the world to us, was how flexible she was with scheduling. We had some unexpected very-last-minute changes to our trip, but Elizabeth was extremely accommodating, kind, and patient. She really had our back. Elizabeth is such a good person, and you can tell that she really cares about you, as well as your dog. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and above-and-beyond to take care of your beloved dog, look no further! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Elizabeth!”

“This was our first time using Rover and Harrison was wonderful! We got pictures and updates throughout Bruschi's entire stay with Harrison. When we picked up Bruschi - he was happy and well adjusted!!”

“Stephen was an incredible dog sitter. My dog is pretty big and has some reactivity triggers but he was super comfortable around Stephen and was clearly well taken care of when I picked him up. Would highly recommend his services!”

“Baxter had such a great stay with Anne, we love her. This was my first time boarding him, he's a nervous but very social young rescue. He had so much fun playing with Anne's dogs and was so comfortable with Anne. There is a beautiful yard and a very comfortable house they have the run of. I got lots of pictures and updates! We'll definitely be boarding here again!”

“We were so happy with Carrigan's house and pet sitting. We have 7 special needs senior dogs and 2 senior cats. Highly recommend. Miss them!”

“LingLing was beyond wonderful! She took great care of our dog Scarlett who has never been without us and I was worried about leaving her for 11 days. Everyday I received updates and photographs of Scarlett. Scarlett went on daily walks, played with LingLing and her 2 dogs and felt right at home. My worries vanished after day 1 when I saw the photos of my dog enjoying herself. Thank you for doing such a good job. I would totally recommend LingLing to take care of your fur baby❤️”

“Yuki was so great with our dog, Sadie! Her apartment is perfectly set up to welcome a dog and had toys at the ready. She kept Sadie entertained while we discussed her routine and needs. We felt very relieved to have found Yuki for Sadie's overnight care and we got some happy pictures of her while we were away. Yuki was very communicative and we appreciated her flexibility on timing of the drop offs and pick up. We look forward to having Yuki care for Sadie again. Thank you!”

“My labradoodle Greta thrived while staying with Andrew for 6 days. She’s always a bit shy and anxious when away from me but Greta had obviously bonded with Andrew during her stay. I got photos every day so I could see that she was relaxed and having fun with other dogs staying with Andrew. I will definitely re-book with Andrew the next time I’m looking for Greta care.”

“Jennifer is fantastic! She is an animal lover and a responsible pet owner herself, as well as my go-to dog walker and pet sitter for when I am traveling or need an extra hand. She is trustworthy, has a lifetime of experiences with animals of all kinds, and reliably cares for my dog and cat when I'm out of town. Please don't hesitate to add her to your pet care crew.”

“Christine was amazing! Not only did she take my reservation week-of, she took my anxious dog, Pepper, and made sure she was comfortable and entertained the entire time. She sent along photos and videos giving me so much peace of mind. With Christine’s compassion and fully fenced in backyard, my Pepper didn’t want to leave! Will absolutely be biking again and I encourage you to do the same!”

“Lauren is amazing! My dog Albie who can be pretty shy loved Lauren. He felt right at home and getting photo updates of him looking and living his best life made me feel much better. She really is amazing and cannot recommend her highly enough.”
