About: I’ve been a loving parent to both cats and dogs for 25 years. I love animals and am happy to accommodate walk schedules, medications, injections, and of course, lots of playtime and scritches! My pup and I do pretty much whatever we want, whenever we want. I have a flexible work schedule and am often at home, so can accommodate desired potty break and walk times, medications, preferred activities (beach, dog park, hanging out at the house.) My pup is always ready for company and activity, but knows when it’s time to relax. I live in a private house set far back from the street, with a large, well kept (but unfenced) 1.5 acre yard. My dog, Pepper, is an extremely social, playful, but chill and well-behaved 5yr old neutered Jack Russell mix. He loves playtime with other dogs, but is respectful of the quieter styles of older dogs or dogs just needing rest. I have a comfy crate suitable for small to medium dogs (if you crate), lots of toys, and lots of time to engage with your sweetie. The area surrounding my home is safe and quiet, with many options for woodland walks. I live near dog-friendly beaches and the Saco river, so splashing is an option, too! If your dog has good recall, I can provide off-leash time in the 1.5 acre yard. I have a front porch with a protective gate to keep the sunbathers from getting out, and lots of space for indoor play time and resting as well.


About: I am a dog lover at heart and they know it! Wherever I visit I often find their fur baby right by my side. I have taken dog training classes and lean on my naturally loving and patient talents to create that bond. I'm looking forward to being there when you can't be.❤️ I work from home and your fur baby will be great company. My work schedule has some flexibility which allows me the time to give them the time and attention they need. I do have a backyard where pets can play. The yard is not fenced in but I do have a long leash that allows them the ability to enjoy the space in the backyard. I'm close to the Eastern trail and a dog park that I always enjoyed taking my little Joey to! He always enjoyed being right by my side when home and know your fur baby will too. 😊

“They were incredible... My dog is going through a shy phase and they couldn't have been kinder with him. They sent pics throughout the day and updates and the home and the yard were perfect for a dog to have a super fun day. These are seriously good people and we'll be using them again whenever we're in the area. The perfect family to leave your furry loved one with.”



“Briana accepted our Daisy on short notice and on a holiday weekend. Daisy had such a good day that I don't think she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up! I would highly recommend her services.”


“AmyBeth is great! Very responsive leading up to our dates and then during! She loves your pup just like it is hers! She is very flexible on times and allowed us to switch days because of the weather. Very convenient to OOB and took Scarlet on long walks and played with her. This is our first time meeting AmyBeth and we couldn’t have been happier. We had zero concerns and Scarlet had lots of fun!”

“Seth and his family were so welcoming to Fiona! They were accommodating and attentive but also laid back and flexible! Fiona had such a good day she immediately fell asleep when we got in the care. Seth was easy to communicate with and was so easy to meet. Will definitely be booking with them again!”


“Lacey, Chad, and Joseph were amazing hosts!! Hazel was happy, tired and thriving upon pick up. Lacey was very informative and welcoming and they have a beautiful and safe set up for your 4 pawed family members. If I could give more than 5 stars I surely would. We needed a sitter in a pinch when ours wasn’t available and Lacey was quick to respond and help us out so that all of us (including Hazel) could have a fun day trip! She kept me up to date throughout the day with pictures and updates, providing lots of toys and games for Hazel so she wouldn’t be bored and loved on her like she was her own. I will definitely recommend Lacey and her fam to anyone who needs a sitter in the Southern Maine area and we definitely will inquire again. Thanks so much guys!!”


About: I’ve loved animals and grew up with them my entire life. I’m most comfortable with dogs and cats, but I can accommodate additional pets with direction and can deal with all different pet personalities quite well! I’m currently working from home, so my availability is quite open for most situations. I’m also open and would love something regular where I can stop in and do house calls or walks for those pet parents that had to return to the office! I can be flexible! I understand that your pet is your family, and I take that very very seriously. I promise to always treat them well and have their safety as a top priority.

“Our pup had a great day with Melissa and her family! She kept me updated on how he was doing and kept him active. He was so happy to see me at the end of the day but he also nuzzled Melissa and her daughter while we chatted about his day. It’s clear they gave him lots of love and attention! I highly recommend Melissa’s services!”


About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life. Currently sharing our home with our lovable rescue, Maddie. She loves everyone and wants to play all day! I love high energy and low energy dogs! I’ve recently retired from full time teaching after 37 years! My schedule has changed greatly and I’m available to be with your pooch! My dog Maddie approves! Our home is on a busy street, so we never go off leash. Our house is comfy and happy for our happy snuggly girl, Maddie.

About: About five years ago, I began fostering animals—mostly dogs—and quickly discovered how much I enjoy spending time with them. Since then, I've fostered dozens of dogs of various sizes and breeds. Each one has had their own unique and often hilarious personality. Fostering comes with its own set of challenges, especially building trust with an animal in a short amount of time. Over the years, I’ve done a considerable amount of training, as pets with basic obedience skills are more likely to be adopted. I work from home and understand how important—and sometimes difficult—it is to find someone reliable to care for your pet. I'm highly communicative, and my goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pet is being cared for with the utmost attention and love. I live in a great suburban neighborhood that’s perfect for dog walks and playtime. I am a remote employee for a tech company and have a very flexible schedule. I work out of a clean room with a lovely patio off from it that overlooks the backyard. Because of my work schedule, I’m flexible to look after pets with differing needs, walk schedules etc. I don’t have any pets or young children in my home, so visiting or boarding pets get my full attention in a calm, quiet environment. My top priority is making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When pets stay with me, I stick closely to their usual routine—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, or administering any medications. I know how important consistency is, especially when they're in a new environment. If I’m caring for a pet in their own home, I treat the space with respect and follow all instructions carefully to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible for the pet. I’m very communicative and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I have worked with so many different breeds of animals. From big to small. There is nothing I can't handle!! Looking forward to making some new furry friends! I am currently working for myself so I have open availability 24/7 !!!! ☺️ Anytime day or night, last minute calls. I'm your girl!!! ☺️ I have a small dog at home. His name is buddy he's a terrier. I have two lazy kitties that love to snuggle and I have a parrot who will keep your little fur baby entertained ☺️
