“Amina was super flexible and squeezed my puppy in her schedule, and on very short notice! She also snapped some cute photos of them outside, he looked like he loved it. So glad i reached out to her will definitely be using her in the future :)”


About: I’ve cared for all types of animals my entire life and had been working in a clinic for just under one year. I love each animal as my own and can’t wait to build a relationship with your pet to help keep the safe, happy, and healthy!! I work part time in fast food currently, I have a ton of free time to play and take care of your animals. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to make more time for your pet if I am let known in advance. I very much believe in listening to your pets signs and cues, letting them decide if they are okay with the situation. I want to keep myself, your pet, and you as safe as possible!!

About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life, adopting my first pup at 16. Now, I’m the proud owner of two dogs—a playful 8-year-old Yellow Lab and a sweet 3-year-old German Shepherd rescue. Animals are my passion, and my dogs are truly my fur babies. I’d love to treat yours with the same love and care! I'm currently working part-time and pursuing online schooling to become a nurse practitioner. Between my love for the outdoors and my passion for pets, I thought this would be the perfect way to take a study break. I’m usually available afternoons, nights, and weekends—though I’m a night owl, I’d happily rise early for some fun pet playtime! I have a fenced-in backyard where my dogs and I love to play fetch, and we’re also big fans of daily walks and tug-of-war. I’m up for any game your pet enjoys—and I’ll even let them win every now and then for extra fun! If your pet prefers a more laid-back vibe, I’m more than happy to join them as a fellow couch potato for some quality relaxation time!

“Baylee is AMAZING! She was able to meet with me right away, and fit Winston in next day. She worked around my schedule and made me feel super comfortable. Listened to all my worries and made me feel so much better having a sitter. Winston absolutely loved her :) I wil definitely be re booking with her for any of my needs.”


About: My name is Meagan and I have loved animals from the beginning of time. I have a rottweiler named Karl and a pit mix named Roman, so big dogs don't seem to phase me. I am in the process of getting my animal science degree from Ellsworth Community College with dreams of vet school in the future. I have a background of dogs of all sizes and ages as well as cattle and equine. I have watched family friends dogs for years, so I have a lot of experience when it comes to animals from other homes. I have never met an animal I didn't like and I'm not about to start now. I look forward to spending time with many more animals that will enter my life in the future.

“Tessa has been great with our Havanese pup, Daisy. She is very active and needs her walks to quiet the zoomies. Tessa is gentle and thoughtful and great at handling dogs. I highly recommend her.”


“Anna was prompt, dependable and excited to walk our dog today! Will definitely use her again!”


About: I currently have a cat and grew up with a small dog, but I’ve always had a soft spot for big dogs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’d love to have a dog of my own, but my apartment isn’t quite the right fit right now, so Rover is a perfect way for me to spend time with animals I love. Whether it’s a walk, some company, or just making sure your pet feels at home, I’m all in! Since I’m off for the summer, my schedule is pretty wide open and super flexible. I’m available for daytime walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays — whatever works best for you and your pet! When caring for pets in your home, I aim to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I’ll follow your instructions closely, give them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and make sure they feel safe and relaxed while you're away. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own.

Glory M.
“Glory has been a dog walker and done doggy daycare for our two dogs for three years. She does an excellent job walking the dogs and even goes beyond our expectations. She keeps track of when and where they go to the bathroom and the route she used. She also continues to work on basic commands and then praises them.

The dogs love her and so do we.”
