Dog Walkers in Arundel, ME

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life—growing up in a pet-loving home taught me how to care for animals with love and patience. I’ve also volunteered at the humane society, where I gained hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for family, friends, and coworkers, providing everything from walks to overnight care. I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I work a sales job Monday–Friday, typically from 8:00 AM to around 4:30 PM, and I travel locally (within an hour). I always make sure I’m available before accepting any bookings, so your pet’s care will never be compromised. I’m available for evening walks during the week, and I’m open to overnight house sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I’m very aware of my surroundings and always prioritize your pet’s safety, whether we’re out walking or relaxing at home. I’m great at reading animals’ energy and body language, which helps me respond calmly and confidently in any situation. I follow any instructions carefully and always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable.

“Becca is an a great dog walker. Our puppy can be mischievous and Becca was very good about managing her silly puppy behaviors. She was also flexible when I requested her to come a little earlier on a couple occasions. Highly recommended!”

About: On top of being a being a pet owner since I was 11 years old and owning my own pup since I was 20 years old, I worked in a doggy day care for 3 years and volunteer at an animal shelter for 7 years. My pup has done classes starting puppy kindergarten all the way to her canine good citizen certification. I work overnights and am able from 11am to 3pm. I’m available to Monday thru Friday for walks and drop ins. This is usually a time I’m doing things at home or relaxing before work. My pup is crated but we are working on being out and about in the home. In the end, it’s all about what’s safest for the fur baby!

About: Professional Pet Snuggler, Dog Walker Extraordinaire, and Treat Giver Supreme 🐾 I’m a mom of two young wild and wonderful kids (three, if you count my husband 😄) and a lifelong animal lover. I’ve lived with pets so long, I’m basically fluent in meow, woof, and squeak. With over 5 years of dog-walking experience, I’m comfy with pups of all sizes — from pocket-sized pooches to gentle giants. I’m also totally cool with cats, rats, hamsters, guinea pigs, and even horses. If it has fur (or whiskers), I’m in! Whether your pup needs a brisk walk, your cat needs a snack and a snuggle, or your pet rat just wants someone to chat with — I’ve got you covered. I treat every animal like part of the family (and yes, I do talk to them like they’re tiny humans). Ready to bring joy, treats, and tummy rubs — can’t wait to meet your whiskered pal! As a stay-at-home mom, part-time admin, and dance instructor, I’m no stranger to juggling schedules — and I’ve got the flexibility to fit in pet care when you need it most. Whether it’s during the school year or the summer shuffle, I can usually make it work. Need a midday walk? A last-minute drop-in? A cuddle buddy for your cat while you’re away? I’ve got you covered! I don’t offer pet sleepovers at my place (our house is already a zoo!), but I’m more than happy to come to yours. Your pets will stay comfy in their own cozy corners while I handle the food, walks, belly rubs, and more. I'm super respectful of your home and always treat it like it’s my own. I’m also very mindful of home safety and security — you can count on me to treat your space with respect and care while you’re away.

About: Provided dog walking and sitting services to a professor at my school. Provided a family friend’s dog with potty breaks, meals, and playtime while they were away. Own two dogs of my own. I take care of two dogs, two cats, and two guinea pigs. However we also have a turtle and two parakeets in my home as well. Every day I feed the cats and guinea pigs. Dogs need to be taken outside often. Guinea pigs need their bedding changed weekly. I will make sure all instructions are followed to a T. I understand how specific pet owners are about their pet’s needs. Dogs will receive plenty of pets, cuddles, and playtime while time when I’m around. Attentive care is my goal.

About: I have had many pets since I was just 4 years old! My life has revolved around my pets since I was young, and have always been a big responsibility in my daily life. I can’t imagine my life without pets which is why even while having my own pets, I deeply love to care for others pets as well, and ensure happiness and health in their lives! I currently have 5 pets to care for, so of course everyday I am making sure to keep up with them and their needs! I am looking to work with pets as a full time job so I am hoping to be completely involved in pet care for my own, and of course others pets! Working in other people’s home I will ensure your pets are deeply cared for and looked after by making sure to follow all instructions, pay attention to each pet on a personal level and treat them as if they are my own pet!

“Alex is great with Emmy and lets her lead (stubborn girl!). He also is really responsive and flexible - great to work with to care for our somewhat reactive dog.”

About: I recently moved back to Kennebunk after working in finance to slow down and focus on what matters most to me: being outside, staying active, and spending time with animals. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have an 18-year-old cockapoo who I love dearly. I have been walking other people’s dogs on and off for the past 5 years so I am comfortable with dogs of all ages and energy levels. I am happy to walk for miles, patient with older dogs, and always attentive to the little things like making sure your pup gets to their favorite sniff spot. I will treat your dog like family and make sure they are safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm available most days and times during the week. I just relocated back to Maine from leaving my corporate finance job. Excited to meet the dogs of Kennebunk! I always make safety my top priority by closely supervising pets and following any instructions from their owners. Whether I’m at your home or out on a walk, I keep things calm and comfortable so your dog feels

About: I owned my own Boxer, Ava, for 9 years. She recently passed away and so I am looking to share my love, compassion and support to dog owners seeking companionship and enrichment activity for their dog. Since I work full-time, I am available to watch your dog during the weekends I am able to. Need a break from your dog so you can enjoy “me” time or have a nice weekend? Then reach out and contact me! I am a huge animal lover and therefore I am available to assist with daily activities (feeding, medications, potty time) and enrichment (walk & play time) including overnight boarding. I will accept 2 dogs at the same time if they are from the same family (additional service rate would apply). I am a home owner that provides a 'cozy' and healthy environment. I have a backyard as well as two large front yards and live in a nice area in Arundel. I will always have your dog on a long leash to allow him/her to roam safely with me tagging along. I am someone who is very structured and believe that providing consistency & structure to a dog is very important. I do not believe in striking or hitting any animal no matter the reason. I will treat your dog with care like it is my own.

“Meira is wonderful! She is a kind soul who I knew I could immediately trust with my best four-legged fur friend. I will have her walk Ellie any time. ?”

About: Just a human coming from childhood life around purebreds protecting me as a baby; Newfoundlands, Labradors and Dalmatians and quickly learning on farm land as a child that animals are so strong with love and protection. I continued to be surrounded and working with pups and cats and so many animals my life. I am here on the earth to support those families with their dogs, cats, domestic and exotic pets and farm animals coming from experience in childhood, adolescence and adulthood supporting those with amazing animals on their property. I have experienced training and also supporting the strength and weakness of your pets. My schedule is beyond flexible from 8am through 7pm with willingness to adjust, Monday through Friday and also available on the weekends based on scheduling ahead of time. And I can coordinate vacations if your family decides to travel as I’ve also done in-home caretaking. Again, I’m flexible however, I’m a mom first so I need to coordinate some type of schedule. I am available to watch your pets at your home currently, no space or area in my home. However, I have a valid driver’s license and clear and fully legal criminal background my entire life which I’m happy to share and willing to bring your pet for walks on trails and/or to dog parks.
