About: I have been working with dogs and cats professionally since May of 2012 with my primary focus on dog walking. From puppies to seniors, I have walked and pet sat all temperaments and ages of dogs. I have a year and a half of basic dog training experience, which also included working with reactive and anxious dogs. Being fluent in dog body language is essential! Subcutaneous injections are also a part of my skill set, as I used to have a diabetic cat that needed insulin injections twice daily as well as a client that needed Adequan injections twice a week. I am available any day of the week for walks and drop ins from about 7am - 8pm. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, I would love to hear from you! I have been walking dogs and doing drop ins for cats and dogs professionally for over 14 years. I am now available full time for care in the Standish, Buxton, and Gorham areas. I LOVE my job! Taking care of dogs and cats was my heart’s calling and I’ve never looked back. Getting to know your furry critters and building a trusting, mutually beneficial relationship with them is my favorite thing in the world. Every dog and cat has a unique personality and I enjoy learning what works (and what doesn’t work!) for them and lovingly cater to their specific needs, likes, and dislikes.

“Nicolette has been enormously helpful with our energetic pup. She took him on highly engaging woods walks, leaving him happy and calm each time she brought him back. It is abundantly clear Nicolette loves and takes great care in her interactions with animals, and we feel lucky to have found her as a dog walker whom we have every intention of reaching out to for ongoing help/care of our dog.”

“Lyndsay was so wonderful walking our dog fisher each day for us! She sent lots of pictures and always gave us a full report. Would highly recommend!”

“Kara was a huge help when we had a last minute need for someone to come by in the middle of the day to care for our dog, Tucker. Tucker loved her right away and had a great time playing with Kara each day. We'll definitely work with Kara again!”

“Faith did a great job walking our two dogs! She was very kind and attentive to their needs during the initial meet and greet and my dogs had a great time on their walk. I feel very comfortable having Faith care for my pets!”

About: Hii!! I’m a patient, caring sitter with 3 years of experience of caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I’m skilled at giving medications, calming anxious pets, and provided the attention your furry baby needs. I’m happy to send frequent updates to keep you at ease, treating your pet with all the love and care they deserve. I am currently looking for some time to spend with pets when I am not working. I have a passion to be with animals and it brightens my day to help someone and spend time with a cute furry pet. I love to be active and create an environment that the pets can thrive and be loved. I have free time throughout the week to tend to their needs and get them out of the house or play with them to get their jitters out. For dogs, I love to play with them and go for walks or runs so they can go explore. For cats, I make sure their environment is clean and give them constant snuggles and comfort.

“Nishat was amazing. Took great care of Beau. And great pics too!”

About: Since I was a teenager I have had friends, family, and neighbors entrust me with the care of their fur babies. Dogs, cats, guinea pigs,and even chickens. I currently own 3 rescue dogs, a cat, and my own small chicken flock. 2 of my 3 dogs are on the harder side of the rescue realm, so I understand some pets can take more patience then others. I work primarily from home, with an occasional office day mixed in. Most days I can be available on my lunch hour, as well as other times of day depending on what else is going on. I have some flexibility with my job. Your pet's safety is a number one priority. General safety within the home should be discussed ahead of time. And any special things to watch out for. I happen to have a dog who will eat absolutely anything left on the floor, so any special safety concerns should be discussed.

“Was wonderful with my dog! :)”

“The dogs love her! She is very attentive and sends lots of pictures”

“Andy has been walking my dog fairly regularly for over 6 months now and I can’t recommend him enough. He is always timely in his response and communicates very clearly. I would recommend him to anyone who’s looking for a loving and responsible dog walker.”

About: Heyyy! Want to know a little bit about me? I have a 3 year old crazy hound at home! I got her as a puppy and shes been my best friend ever since. We like to be outdoors frequently as shes got a lot of energy. I also have 2 lazy cats that I adore but they don't do too much. I have experience working in 3 different dog daycare facilities. Doing all things like boarding, group play, feeding/medications, and outdoor walks (sometimes in groups as well). For a short period of time while working at the daycare I had fostered a senior dog as well before she successfully got adopted!!! I treat all animals as if they are my own and give them all the love and attention possible. I have some extra free time on my hands and would love to meet your furry friends!!! I am currently working full time on weekdays! I work from home 8am-5pm, but still have the desire to hang with your pups in my free time or on the weekends. My availability does fluctuate frequently so some weeks I may be more available than others. I set prices through the apps suggestions but im ALWAYS willing to negotiate prices i truly love just being and caring for animals when i can! I have a fenced in yard at my house! I have experience with crate training as well! Im comfortable with following any safety rules! My favorite motto is fear and force free!

“Bella did an amazing job with Nala! This was her first time with Nala - and it was very appreciative how she updated how the visits were each time and pictures! Would definitely use again 😊”

About: I’ve cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I know how important your pet is to you and I always promise to treat them like my own. I can check in on them for walks, feedings, and playtime so that they feel loved and cared for! I’m currently available everyday for walks and drop ins. Although Thurs-Saturdays I am only available after 2pm due to my part time summer job. I can no longer offer overnight pet sitting unfortunately. But if you need a daily check in while you are at work or if you’re planning on being out on the lake all day and need someone to stop in and stay with your buddy so they don’t get lonely then I just may be the perfect fit! I follow instructions and use common sense to ensure your pet stays safe and has all of their needs met. I keep your house tidy as I come and go and keep you updated with plenty of pictures so you can have peace of mind.

“Thank you Kira!! We are so happy to have you walk Fiona while we are at work!”

About: Hi, my name is Oksana, I'm an animal lover and i would take them all in. I'm ready to care for your pups and give them what they need. I have taken care of pups from st. Bernard size to dachshund size. I have taken care of aggressive dogs and dogs that have had a litter of puppies. I also have a cat and am comfortable with watching your cats as well. I love to walk and exercise if that's what your dog is needing.

About: I am an animal lover who specializes in house sitting, pet enrichment, compassionate care, walks and play. All ages, 1 on 1 care. Very experienced with senior dogs and high needs situations. I am extremely communicative and love sharing photos of your furry friends. I am just like you! I have owned pets my whole life, I know how much they mean to our families and your boundaries and their health matter most to me. Happiness is everyone cared for and safe. You’ll see through my over 50 5 star reviews that I truly do care. This is not just a gig for me, this is a path I’ve chosen. I love to be outdoors and am an organized individual. It’s been a busy year and I’ve grown a beautiful clientele on Rover. I try to be as flexible as possible, my availability is always up to date but never hesitate to reach out and see if we can arrange something, I am always willing to flexible with my rates as well. I truly enjoy house sitting, leaving your place better than you found it and making your life as a pet owner simpler, with trust. Because I do not book multiple animals at once, my calendar is filling up fast. My best advice for booking is to plan far ahead and if you’re a new client, please allow time for meet and greets. My family and I have a full setup just waiting to accommodate a pup in need of a stay. We have animal beds, toys, A yard (not fenced in) with a chain run and lots of neighborhood to walk in! We also have a disabled/elderly person in the home with so much love to give to animals with a need for more affection and who can ensure someone is with your furry friend if we need to run an errand. We love a dog park or beach run if that’s what your pup is into (though I reserve field trips for more well acquainted clients), and our car is well equipped with baggies and h2o bowls to make sure any trip is safe and fun.
