Dog Walkers in Dayton, ME

“I am a repeat customer because Ariana has been great to work with! She is a responsive, dependable, and accommodating dog walker. I love that she gives my dog a change of scenery from where we typically walk, and always includes pictures after :) I highly recommend her!!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments (Sandy, Poky, Cheetah, Rose, Hedgy, Oscar), and I also have many friends who have dogs that are reactive or have other special needs. I've taken care of their pets with love and respect and would love to do the same for your animals! I am wide open to help with your pet-care needs! I am very flexible, so would be able to potentially help out on very little notice! I have a sizeable fenced-in yard where a dog would have a great time! There is one friendly dog that lives below us and shares the yard.

“Ashley was great. Everything went well and the dog enjoyed her walk. Highly recommended and I will certainly be contacting Ashley for any further dog walking needs.”

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.

“Faith is great! She was prompt and friendly, and managed our dog through a tricky situation on one of their walks. We really appreciate her help and experience, thank you!!”

“Megan was amazing. She went over and beyond during her time with our dog and it was clear she really cared! Also great communication! She’s a gem.”

About: I enjoy supporting fur friends and work part-time as a psychotherapist for humans. I have raised dogs nearly all of my life, and understand that your pets have unique needs in personalities. They may even need some therapeutic support! I offer trustworthiness and maturity, and a discount for the first three walks booked. I work part time as a psychotherapist. I have blocks of time available during the week for pet care, both in the morning and later in the day. I can visit your home and care, feed, walk and play with your pets in your neighborhood. I do offer nature walks services on a case by case basis and for additional fees.

About: I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been second nature. I adopted my two cats at 18, and they’ve been with me through every chapter, college, a couple summers in Hawaii, and beyond. I grew up with a Boston Terrier and had a Great Pyrenees during college, both of whom I loved deeply and cared for daily. From energetic puppies to older dogs who need extra patience and gentleness, I’ve worked with pets of all ages and temperaments. I started pet sitting at 11, and my first real job at 13 was walking my neighbor’s Border Collies. Throughout high school, pet sitting and dog walking were how I earned money. I’ve continued to care for cats and dogs into adulthood, offering everything from walks and feedings to medication and companionship. I treat every pet like family and always show up with care, reliability, and genuine love. I’m a Pilates instructor here in Maine, so my schedule is super flexible. I’m available for pet sitting, drop-ins, and walks on most weekdays (especially afternoons and evenings) as well as weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine! I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable. I’m experienced with crating, feeding routines, medications, and giving pets the attention and structure they need. I’m respectful of your space and always prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being.

“Hannah is great with our puppy! She loves when she visits! Highly recommended!”

About: I worked at Puddleduck dog kennel for two years, and have dog sat for many more. I worked with dogs from 1 week old to 16 years with all kinds of medication, feeding, and exercise schedules. I have trained puppies and broken up dog fights and cuddled pups for countless hours! Heads up: I do charge a $10 fee for bookings 30+ minutes away, and $15 for 45+ minutes away, as that is an hour+ of my time I would otherwise not be compensated for. I am currently in college, I have a maximum of 2 classes a day Monday through Friday, and nothing on the weekends. I own a car and am willing to drive around. I imagine I could make most things work, a heads up would be nice but I am willing to take last minute gigs as well! I always ask the owner to leave me care instructions, and will always cater to the individual pet. The clients home is not my business so I won’t judge any messes or be touching anything that’s not necessary to your pets care! I will definitely snuggle your pets if they let me!!

About: Hello! My name is Makenna! I’ve had dogs my whole life! Currently I have 3! I love all dogs all shapes and sizes! Nothing scares me! I currently work full time! I am available for stays in your home or my own! My weekends are pretty open! I also have plenty of holiday availability! If you don’t see availability on my calendar don’t hesitate to reach out!! I have availability to care for one dog in my home! Since I do work full time, i do not have a lot of availability for drop ins throughout the day! I can ensure you that your fury family member will receive the best care!

About: I’ve cared for family dogs and a cat my whole life, including senior pets with complex needs—so I understand how important patience and gentle care can be. For the past 5 years, I’ve also pet sat for friends and neighbors, from energetic puppies to older animals needing medication or extra help. I recently moved from Atlanta to the Portland area for a full-time job, and leaving my family dogs behind was one of the hardest parts. I work 4 long shifts a week, which makes having a pet of my own tough—but I have plenty of free time, love, and experience to offer yours. Pet sitting and walking helps fill that gap in my heart, and I treat every pet like family. I work full-time Wednesday through Saturday from 9am to 7pm, but I’m available for walks or check-ins before or after my shifts. I have open availability on Sundays through Tuesdays and plenty of flexibility to offer quality time with your pet. I’m also available for overnight stays—even on my workdays, as long as I can head out by 8am. Pet care fits naturally into my life, and I genuinely enjoy making time for it. While I can’t have pets in my apartment, I’m more than happy to care for your pets in your home where they feel most comfortable. I offer overnight stays, drop-ins, and walks, and can help with feeding, fresh water, medications, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. I’m also happy to transport pets if needed. I treat every animal like they’re my own—keeping them safe, happy, and relaxed while you're away.

About: I have personally had dogs since I was ten years old, as well as multiple reptiles and fish. I worked professionally for a dog walking company from February 2021 to August 2021 before coming to University of New England to study Animal Behavior. I am a student with two part-time jobs so my availability depends on the day, but weekends are typically pretty open along with some weeknights. I am open to any kind of walk or drop-in you would like, ranging from 15-60 minutes. Leave me a note, message me, anything you want during your pup’s scheduled time and I can do it!

About: I have taken care of all sorts of dogs: small, large, young, old, and have owned 2 dogs throughout my life. I have also taken care of cats, kittens and rats. I am well equipped to take care of your animals and provide a responsible sitter for them as well as provide them with great exercise and company! I have experience giving medications to dogs as well as basic training for puppies. My animal care experience has been done professionally throughout my community in Maine for about 4-5 years. I am available during these times: Mondays: I have online classes from 10-12:30 and 5:30-7:30pm Tuesday: I have online classes from 10-12:30 and 1:30-4pm Wednesday/ Thursday/ Friday: I have clinicals 6:30am-5pm Saturdays/ Sunday: I am available all day I am unable to house pets in my apartment but I have a car in order to drive them to beautiful trails to walk on and get some fresh air and exercise.

“Rhea has been wonderful! She has gone above and beyond for Honey, taking her to the dog park and teaching her basic commands. Honey is always happier on the days she sees Rhea. She is caring and trustworthy. Highly recommended.”

About: I am a 28 year old living in Biddeford with my 3 year old German Shepard, Leroy. I love working with all types of dogs and have experience boarding and walking. I look forward to working with your pets! I am a full-time online student with a flexible schedule which allows me to accommodate most days and times. I typically walk between noon and 3 daily but I welcome requests for different times. Depending on what the you are comfortable with, I will take dogs for walks directly from your home or bring them to local trails/parks. I also offer day care at my house. I live on an acre of land entirely fenced in with walking trails in the woods behind.

“Sam is amazing! He is super knowledgeable and skilled. He is great with overly excited or anxious pups, and he was immediately able to help work on building our dog’s comfort and confidence out on walks. He also took her out on fun adventures when possible. We can’t recommend him enough!!”
