About: I've always had dogs in my life, and I think they deserve to be treated with love, patience & spoiled too! I'm comfortable with teacup-sized to the biggest dogs. I have a lab named Penne who loves to welcome new friends into our home! I work from home, so I have plenty of time to give pups all the love they need during their stay. I usually walk Penne 3x a day in Deering Oaks & let her run around the fenced-in yard if the weather is nice. For puppies I can do more-frequent runs! I am generous with treats, happy to have pets on furniture, and love to give pups love. I understand the concern with leaving your pup behind during work or a trip all too well, so I'm happy to give regular updates & pictures!

“Anne was fabulous. Teddy went right to her like he had known her forever. I needed daycare last minute and she was so kind to help me out. She sent tons of pictures and updates throughout the day. I highly recommend her services.”


“Kyle and Kaleigh have the perfect set up to watch our dog. We were completely comfortable leaving our pup with them and they were awesome about sending us pictures and communicating on how our dog was doing”


“Kyle and Mariah were fantastic caretakers for Lobo for the past week! Got photo updates multiple times per day, and it's clear that he had a TON of engagement and activity - he put himself to bed when we got home 😂. Highly recommend!!”


“My girl had a spectacular weekend. So much so she didn't want to go home :) I think she fell in love with the kids. I was a bit worried about her raw diet as some people can't handle it. Austin had no issues at all. The updates and pictures were a lovely bonus. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for boarding.”



“Laney was perfect for us and our dog! She was extremely responsive as we set up our date for Happy's two-day stay, and we enjoyed meeting with her by video beforehand. She was so welcoming to Happy -- and us -- and she clearly loves being with dogs and knows how to put everyone at ease. She did a great job of introducing Happy to her two lovely dogs and to her human family. We were confident that Happy would enjoy herself at Laney's, and she did! We're looking forward to returning to southern Maine soon so Happy can stay with her again!”


“Janice was wonderful. She accommodated us when we needed to make changes to our booking. She sent pictures and let us know how Sophia was doing. Sophia took to Janice immediately. She was exceptional in every way. We highly recommend her services.”


“Alma took such good care of our pup while we were away for the weekend! He got lots of exercise and had so much fun playing with Birdie. Alma had a great setup at home and her communication was top notch.”


“Michelle was so kind and her communication with us was great! She sent us updates throughout the day about Bear and sent us lots of pictures! I would definitely trust her with our pup again :)”


About: I grew up with a Shiba Inu, an American Shorthair, and two Ragdoll in my home. Having pets around me shaped who I am today. I enjoy being around animals, and I can’t wait to take care of your pets when you are inconvenient! My working schedule is very flexible and I have hybrid schedule that allows me to be home from Friday to Monday every week. I can also stay home longer than four days if necessary. I can take photos and record videos to keep the owner updated. The owner can request for when they wanted the pictures to be taken.

“Amy was so great with Herbie and sent me regular updates with funny and fun pictures and videos of my big golden with her chihuahuas and was so kind and accommodating and though she has smaller older dogs she understood Herbie’s younger big dog energy. I would definitely recommend Amy to anyone needing a caring dog sitter and if I were in the Portland area I would 100% choose Amy!:)”


About: Hi everyone! I grew up in Minnesota in a house full of spaniels. Since then, I have dog-sat for family and friends for short and extended periods! I have also raised a fur baby of my own- my (almost 2) year old Sussex Spaniel, Gus. Pet care fits into my daily/ weekly schedule naturally, as I have a dog of my own. I’m currently working a fully remote job, and can accommodate pet needs easily throughout the day! I build my day around making sure my dog gets enough love, care, attention, and exercise, and will do the same for yours! I strive to follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or yours. At my place, I have a friendly dog that would love to play and keep yours company. At yours, I will respect the space and routine, provide regular updates, and give your dog plenty of attention and affection!

“Rose was incredible! She sent multiple picture and video updates everyday, took my pup on adventures, and was excellent at communicating. I will definitely be utilizing Rose in the future.”


“Emily was awesome! She took amazing care of Stormy and made us feel so comfortable while we were away with daily photo updates and great communication! We would 100% leave Stormy with her again!”


“Reina always enjoy her visits with Carmen and her family . Carmen sends multiple updates / pics throughout the visit . She is also very accommodating if my schedule happens to change and she treats my fur baby and I like family . Reina feels right and home as soon as she steps in the door .”



“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”

Alicia C.
“Alicia has had pets her entire life, and all of them lived long, happy, and healthy lives. She loves all dogs, and pats attention to what they like/listen to take care of them the way they are used to. She has dog sit for friends, and I can personally say she takes great care of our dog, Penne. She is constantly going above and beyond for her, and blows me out of the water consistently in exercising her, training her, or just generally making her feel happy and safe.”
