“We were lucky enough to find Heidi for our two dogs while we were in Portland for a weekend wedding. From the beginning Heidi was responsive and easy to book. She went above and beyond for our dogs during their stay with her. We were very nervous for one of our dogs who has developed new stranger reactivity and from the get go Heidi was calm, patient and kind, within 3 minutes they were best friends. She was also excellent with our other dog who is recovering from an injury. Needless to say we had an excellent experience and were able to truly enjoy our weekend knowing our pups were in good hands with Heidi.”
“Could not recommend Christina more highly. She was incredibly responsive and communicative and treated my dog like her own. I will absolutely look to Christina for future stays.”
“Jennie was fantastic with our Woofie and Bride, and they really enjoyed their time with her dog Maya. We were looking for a comfortable home for our pups while we were away, and Jennie made everything easy. Great communication, great photos and videos! We couldn't be happier!”
“We used Carmen for the first time leaving our dog Griffey for a week for the very first time. Carmen was so attentive in providing updates and great pictures. Griffey loved the time he spent with her family and we appreciate her so much!!!”
“Kris took such good care of our pups! She took good notes, sent plenty of pictures, and was enthusiastic and communicative throughout. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“Anne was wonderful! Beautiful yard and friendly dogs that played with my two after a long car ride from PA. Lots of updates and photos, which were appreciated as new Rover users.”
“Amy was wonderful with my poodle, accepting the challenge to tire him out by the end of the day. She is courteous and easygoing, and has a large fenced in yard for the dogs to play. I would definitely hope to schedule with Any again.”
“Rose is an incredible sitter! Poppy was with her for a weekend and was so well cared for— we received so many pictures and constant communication which was amazing! Book with Rose!”
About: I grew up with a Shiba Inu, an American Shorthair, and two Ragdoll in my home. Having pets around me shaped who I am today. I enjoy being around animals, and I can’t wait to take care of your pets when you are inconvenient! My working schedule is very flexible and I have hybrid schedule that allows me to be home from Friday to Monday every week. I can also stay home longer than four days if necessary. I can take photos and record videos to keep the owner updated. The owner can request for when they wanted the pictures to be taken.
About: As someone who genuinely loves taking care of animals, this role is perfect for me. I am that person that will stop on the street to pet any and all dogs (if their owners allow it!) I am a full time nursing student graduating in December and also work at the hospital, but would love to also schedule some animal time in as well :) I am mostly free on weekends due to my school schedule, but may vary week to week. I can usually be fairly flexible though depending on the week! I am very detailed and organized, so steps for taking care of your pets will not be missed! I will treat your dogs as if they were my own.
About: I know the answer to both sides of that question; having gone years without a pet, and then falling in love with a rolly, romping little pug who my partner and I were blessed to have 16 1/2 years. When we lost him, our hearts were broken, (and still are), and our home less rowdy and happy. Knowing I could never replace him, I've decided to open my home to those pups (and some cats) who need a place to camp out while moms, dads and families are away. And that's why I'm here on Rover. I work from home nearly every day and when not, there are cameras to monitor my four-legged visitors and I'm in to let your baby out during the day without fail. I live just off Portland's Eastern Promenade with plenty of room for walks and play. I'm a professional type with a background as a veterinary technician, (during college and a while afterward). The sweeter and more cuddly your baby is, all the better because I love doggy hugs, playing catch and babying friendly, non-aggressive dogs. Feel free to send me a note with any questions! *Please note that rates are based on the portion that the Rovver platform acquires from the fee paid by the customer. The platform takes a healthy amount from sitters and unfortunately, I must factor that in to what I charge for services. :( I have had and cared for dogs most of my life. I have a background as a veterinary technician and caregiver as well as volunteering for shelters and adoption programs. Whether sitting in your home or mine, I'm extremely attentive to established schedules like feeding time, medication schedules and the like. (I don't accept a lot of client site house sitting but when I do, I'm pretty tidy and often like spending time doing small house chores, so you'll never come back to a home more messy than you left it, and likely a bit cleaner. I love giving attention to dogs, (labs, goldens and pugs especially!). Clean/well groomed pets pretty much get the run of the house when it comes to hanging out on the sofa and, maybe even the bed. But your preferences for crating and sleep/rest time, like everything else will be strictly followed.
“Gwen helped us out at the last minute and saved the day when we discovered that our Portland hotel would not allow us to bring our dog. Our pup immediately took to Gwen who was warm and friendly. Gwen sent photos of our dog happy and cozy in her care. Would highly recommend!”
“Kylie and John were absolutely amazing with Fenway! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. She sent me regular photo updates, and it was clear he was happy, relaxed, and having a great time. I could tell he got plenty of love, attention, and playtime. Fenway will definitely be staying with them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I have walked, bathed/groomed (dogs and cats), given medicine, and know how to read animal body language. I live a pretty active lifestyle and am usually around whenever you need! I do have a full time job, but it is fairly flexible and I can definitely work around anything. I respect the owners wishes and their pets needs. If you have a shy pet, no worries I will be gentle and ease into meeting them. You have a excited/energized pet? No problem I’m ready to play! Have a cuddle bug? I’m down for a nap cuddle sesh. No matter the pet I am confident I can be a good care taker for the time needed
About: I love dogs and I love walking! I just move to Maine and I am looking to walk, board or just love on your dog! My 14 year old rescue Frenchie, Clarabell (pictured above with the most sass) went over the rainbow bridge so I am looking to love on other people's dogs because I can't imagine getting another. She was my puppy soulmate. (That sounds weird, I promise I am not super weird) Anyway, I want to be around dogs and still have a lot of dog love to give. I work from home so I am around a lot. If you have questions, reach out! I work from home so I am able to take walks during the day and also a great candidate for boarding. Dogs can be on the furniture if they want and we will go on tons of walks and adventures. I have a home with a yard but no fence, so I normally just take the dogs out for the morning, mid day and evening walks to go potty. I also live near Willard Beach so if they are able, I can take them to the dog beach in the morning.

Jill C.
“"Jill is more than just a dog walker; she's a true friend to our dog, Noodle! From the moment we met her, her warmth and genuine love for animals were obvious. She's incredibly reliable, always on time, and sends the best photo updates from their walks, which absolutely make my day. Noodle gets so excited when he hears her coming to the door. We've noticed he's happier and calmer since Jill started walking him. We feel so lucky to have found her and can't recommend her services enough!"”
