Dog Walkers in Durham, ME

“Caroline is WONDERFUL! I was worried about having someone new walk Waylon, as he isn’t always accepting of strangers, but Caroline was calm, skilled and patient at the meet and greet, and now Waylon gets excited to see her. She provides great feedback to put my mind at ease while I’m away. She’s great!”

“Highly recommend. Awesome flexibility and communication. Well written description of the walks activities and adventures and good photos. Can tell she cares about Reaper like he is her own.”

“Kasch is great with my nerves Jack-russel. When my two dogs first met him they calmed down much faster than they do with most new people. And he really pays attention and has patience with my Jack's signs of nervousness. Thank you very much Kasch for walking her weekly.”

“Livi did a wonderful job with Kuro. She communicated well. She was on time and took Kuro for long walks as contracted. Kuro enjoyed seeing Livi come each day. I will definitely use her again.”

“Excellent! Richard has a good way with dogs. He was able to get my dog out for his mid day walks, even traveling a ways. Highly recommend! Communication is great.”

“Kat has my highest recommendation for caring for your pet. She is amazing! She has experience fostering dogs, and has a gentle and well-behaved pup to keep your dog company. Kat and her husband are responsible, trustworthy, and truly caring people. Your dog will get plenty of love and affection, and will be well-cared-for, safe and happy in their home. You can rest assured that she will provide the best possible care for your pup. Kat is my first choice for watching my dog, 5-stars!”

“Stephanie is great! Very communicative and flexible with her hours. Boomer warmed up to her very quickly.”

“I had a scottish terrier named max and zaynah was great with him. She always knew when to feed him and when to walk him. Those two were inseparable sometimes. It did me a huge favor when I was working 12 hour shifts. I highly recommend her.”

“Berenice is one of the most knowledgeable people I know when it comes to cats in particular. Not only can she speak their language, but she also seems to have an intuitive sense about their health and well-being. She is absolutely someone who will give 100% when it comes to caring for cats in any capacity. Highly recommend!”

“Lexi is a life-long animal lover and wonderful caretaker for your dog or cat. She is a wonderful doctor (who almost decided to become a vet) and is attentive, responsible, and caring. Your furry loved one would be in the best of hands with Lexi.”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a kid! I've always had dogs and cats! I had a golden retriever as my childhood dog and miss her everyday. My first memory of her was coming home from Massachusetts where we adopted her and as we pulled in to our driveway and she got sick in my lap! Ever since that day I knew she was my dog. I learned responsibility from taking care of her. We also had several cats so I'm happy to take care of any animal you may have! I'm patient, engaging and ready to love your pets! My husband is allergic to dogs so I decided to sign up for rover to live out my dream of having a dog! I get to stay with some pretty amazing pets and I am excited to hopefully meet yours! We have 3 amazing cats- Frank, Charlie and Mimzi. My wonderful husband stays home with them while I am tending to clients animals if I am booked for any house sittings. Our childhood dog had some health issues, and I do have experience giving dogs antibiotics through food distribution. In addition to this, one of my senior cats has asthma and is on a daily inhaler that we give. I work as a retail manager in downtown Freeport & work in Pottland. I work between the hours of 10-6pm. I can be available in the morning, evening and perhaps can take a lunch break to walk dogs if the distance is close in proximity to my work! I currently don't have a busy schedule! I am also open to over night pet sitting! My animals are like my kids. We are a young couple that decided not to have kids, and we give our cats a comfortable life! I would look after a clients pet the same way I look after mine. My cats are very social and require a lot of human interaction (which is absolutely amazing!!) I would treat your animals just as I do mine with the love, care and respect they deserve! My cats are indoor due to the busy street we live on! We used a gate in our entry way to ensure our cats stay indoors. I am committed to making sure your pets are safe and in the comfort of their home! We ensure our cats are up to date on all vaccines, health checkups through vet at your door (highly recommend them!)

About: I’ve had pets my entire life - cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, and mice! Whether it be walking the dogs around the block, letting the cats chase some toys, or giving both some head scratches, you can be sure your pet will be well cared for. In addition to a few kitties at home, we also have an elderly blind and deaf dog who consistently reminds us that love and patience is key to giving the best pet care. I work a full time job Wednesdays through Saturdays. Sundays through Tuesdays I am available for all care needs, from home stay to walking services. During my work week, I am available for home stays, and early morning & evening feedings and walks. I am very open to working out a schedule that works well for everyone involved, so please don’t hesitate to reach out to see how I can meet your pet care needs! I will be sure to ask about your house rules with your pets, and follow all your preferences. Walks will only be on owner-approved paths and locations.

About: I have been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up walking, bathing, grooming, and training dogs of all shapes and sizes. Growing up, my family had between two and six dogs in the house at any given time. We fostered from the local shelter, and so I have a lot of experience with all different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My best memories include running and hiking and snuggling up on the couch with all of our pups. Caring for dogs is second nature to me, and I would love to help you care for your pet! I am currently working from home and have plenty of time to keep your pet(s) company. With no dogs of my own, I welcome the presence of any furry friends in need of some company, good pats, snuggles, and walks! I am an avid runner and hiker, and I am more than happy to bring pups along. I have a large yard and access to good walking and running routes suitable for pets. I have access to reliable transportation, and am happy to have dogs in the car should it be necessary.

About: Facebook page is "Jaclyn's Pet Care" I specialize in most all farm animals/dogs/cats. Been offering my services for about 5 years now to locals and have always had animals amongst my entire life. I know how hard it is to find a sitter during vacations or when you are working long hours. I have 4 over friendly labs and a german short haired pointer whose high energy in my home. Please provide up to date vaccinations copy in bag for drop off of boarding. Our yard is fenced in and we try to keep routines the same while you are away and make transitions as easy as possible. Im home full time this is my full time job. Boarding is our main focus someone's always got eyes on the dogs and if not eyes cameras monitor every move they make in and out of the house. We take it very serious and the dogs safety comes first we do a slow introduction which will be explained throughout a meet and greet We have a fenced in backyard with a ramp, Cleaned daily. Each room in the house has a baby gate. So if anyone is feeling overwhelmed and needs alone time they get split up to have a safe space. All dogs boarded allowed on furniture. You pack dog food and beds whatever needed for the stay if you crate train for bed time ect please pack that as well I do have 5 dogs of my own all listed here in separate profiles. As well as a 10 year old daughter whose in the house

About: I’ve had pets all my life but I’ve been a sitter for friends, family, neighbors, and clients for about 16 years now. I have training in caring for puppies and seniors and can give medication in both pill and injection form. When you leave your pets with me you will be leaving them in the hands of someone who will care for and love them just as you would in your absence. I work part time in the evenings for 5 hours shifts. It makes it easy to work your pets schedules around my work and they will always be my first priority. When I take care of pets, I take care of them in your home. I find it makes it less stressful for the animal because they are in a familiar environment. I follow their routines to the letter and will spoil them rotten! I do sometimes bring my dog with me when I pet sit if your animals get along with other dogs, and you’re comfortable with it. I find it gives all the pets extra enrichment due to the ability to socialize with another dog.

“Annette was great.”

“Ari was a star! Extremely communicative, positive, and flexible. She even brought in our packages!”

“Amber was really nice, great with my dogs. And they are a handful! I will definitely be hiring her again.”

About: I grew up with Golden Retrievers and cats as a kid, and as an adult, I regularly took care of my mother’s dog-feeding, walks, bathroom breaks and giving love and attention while she was traveling or at work for about 10 years. I spent a lot of time in his last years as a senior dog when his health declined working from home at her house every day to provide care and company for him. I miss having a dog close by to take for walks and spend time with, and would love the opportunity to walk and provide company to your dog! I used to work part time as a vet tech assistant, and am familiar with recognizing animal behavior. I still currently work at a vet clinic as the Practice Manager where I have been for 7 years. Animals are my passion. I lost my cat last year and mom’s dog the year before, and would really appreciate spending some more time with animals on my days off. I miss taking her dog for walks, and currently live in an apartment where dogs are not allowed, so would very much enjoy the opportunity to walk your dog and spend some time with them while earning some extra income. I love cats too! I work full days Monday-Wednesday, and am unavailable during that time, but am available to care for your pet Thursday-Sunday, and am flexible with times! I’m happy to walk your dog on their usual route. If they don’t do well outside of the house due to being unsocialized, I’m happy to play with them at your home in your yard so they can get some exercise.

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs since I was young. I have house/dog sat for over 15 clients in the past 2 years. I absolutely love spending time with animals and playing with dogs. I have taken care of dogs ranging in age from puppies to senior dogs. I have followed strict feeding schedules and special diets when needed. I do not have a set work schedule so dog care hours can fluctuate. Most days, I will be available for morning or evening walks and feeds. I have taken care of an array of dog breeds ranging in age from puppies to seniors. I am great at following any instructions left by the owners and want your dog to feel happy and cared for.
