“I booked last minute and Michaela was super responsive and helpful. Michaela and her partner sent lots of updates and pics. Emmie came home very happy and seemed very comfortable. Would book again!”


“Gwen was great! We took a last minute holiday trip to Portland and she was able to watch our dogs last minute while we tooled around the city. She lives in a cute, very clean condo about 10 mins from Old Port. Picked up two very happy pups!”


“Alissa has a great set-up for dogs. Our dog, Lucy, had a great time running around outside, and had a peaceful private space to relax indoors. We know she had a great day because she was just PLAYED OUT at the end of her day. We were happy to find such a great place, while passing through the area hoping to spend a day at the Coastal Maine Botanical Garden.”


“Lindsay is fantastic. She has been a lifesaver with our new pup. He always comes home happy and tired, and Lindsay always gives great updates so I know exactly how our pup has been throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend her more.”


“We had a wonderful experience leaving our dog Willow with Alma! She was very communicative before and during the booking which always makes the Rover process feel easier and more reassuring. Alma’s dog, Birdy, is super sweet as well. Willow seemed comfortable right away and according to Alma settled in more as the day went on. Great yard, deck for doggie lounging and overall set up from the house (super easy to see the yard from most parts of the downstairs). We will definitely book again. Highly recommend!”


About: I have years of experience with caring for animals and love them all dearly! I am caring, patient, and understanding. I have a home with a very large back yard in a country setting, with plenty of space to play and find a good potty spot! I am willing to give baths, go for walks, host your pet at my own home, or care for your pet at your own home. I would love to get the chance to get to know you and your fur babies, please contact me if you are interested in any of my services. Thank you! I am currently going to school online, this makes my schedule very flexible for caring for your fur babies and their needs! I have open availability currently! I have 3 small friendly chihuahuas and a cat, they can be kept on a seperate floor if needed for comfortability, but they have never had trouble getting along with other pets!

About: I’ve been caring for pets since 2015, although I’ve always grown up around animals. What started as helping friends and family while they were out of town—sometimes for weeks or even months—quickly became something I truly enjoy and take pride in. I believe that building trust with both pets and their owners is key to providing the best care possible. Before any stay, I like to meet the pet and owner together to get familiar with their routine, any special activities they enjoy, and any health needs I should be aware of. This helps ensure a smooth transition and allows me to care for each pet as if they were my own I recently moved to Maine in May, and I am excited to make this my forever home. While I’m currently job searching, I’m fully available and would love to focus on pet sitting in the meantime. I have open availability and can be flexible with scheduling to meet your needs At our home, I have a spacious 1.1-acre property with a beautiful front yard, a peaceful pond, and a large backyard all of which are unfenced. Pet guests enjoy plenty of supervised outdoor time in these open areas. I always meet with the owner ahead of time to learn about the dog’s routine, preferences, and any special needs. From there, I create a care plan that helps your dog feel comfortable and keeps their routine consistent while they’re with me.

“Rose made our Buddy feel right at home, he had a great time playing with his new friend while we were out on a whale watching cruise. We really appreciated the updates and photos while in her care. We would highly recommend her services!”


“Annie was fantastic! Winnie is not the easiest of dogs and Annie was gentle and patient with her. She found ways around things that Winnie doesn't enjoy, like being picked up, which is necessary because she can't do stairs.”


“Kelsey was SO friendly, and asks all the right questions. Her dog, Sapphire was so adorable as well, so our Daisy got to make a little friend. It was great being able to bring her somewhere we could trust she'd be safe and cared for! We will surely use Kelsey again in the future if we are in the area. Thank you again!!”


“Molly is so sweet and kind it made leaving our baby a little easier. She was so understanding with our timeline changes and open to do whatever we need. She sent pictures and let me ask a million questions and it was peace of mind. I would 10/10 recommend Molly!!”


“Elizabeth amazing! Lots of pictures and great communication. You can tell she really loves caring for doggos and treated my little guy like he was her own. Pretty sure my dog was little sad to have to come back home to me. Ha! Will be using her again!”


About: *Recently moved to Yarmouth, Maine and back on Rover - accepting new clients* 🐾 🐾 Rates 🐾 🐾 I am happy to travel but may need to add a mileage fee for bookings outside of my 15 minute radius. All rates are negotiable. *Boarding: I only host 1 family's pets at a time. This provides a safer environment for your pet and an "at home" feel with plenty of attention, especially for reactive or aging dogs. I don't use crates or kennels but if you want to bring yours along that is fine, I also have 1 medium sized crate on hand if needed. I have a very clean home and welcome pets to feel comfortable if they would like to snooze on the sofas, bed, and we have a secure fenced in yard, but I do not leave dogs unattended in the yard. I usually take my dog to the local dog parks and nature trails and would bring yours along too. 🐾 🐾 Basic Info 🐾 🐾 I am an EMT, certified in Pet CPR + First Aid. For the past 25 years, I have been an animal caretaker. My favorite part is getting to know all of the different breeds and personalities. Your pets will be treated with love, and be as comfortable in my home as yours. I always send lots of photos at the end of each day. 🐾 🐾 My daily schedule 🐾 🐾 I work from home as a university professor. My position is remote, so I am able to work anywhere with a wifi connection. I work for rover occasionally and my schedule is typically super organized and flexible. We do at least 2 active hours per day- and we try to squeeze in as many hikes as possible. My boyfriend is also very helpful with the dogs- if they are up for it, he will take them jogging every night.

About: It’s my mission to provide the BEST care for your dog(s). I have always had a dog in my family and grew up learning how to properly care for my black lab and golden doodle! I have lots of experience taking care of my own dogs as well as volunteering at an animal refuge league called the ARLGP for both dogs and cats. I know how to care for younger dogs and older dogs, my golden is currently 13 years old. Currently accepting clients in Maine and Mass. I love taking care of dogs! I walk my dogs every morning and evening giving them walks in nature. I am home for college, so my schedule is completely open for the time being! I care for my dogs by taking them on two daily long walks, giving them food twice a day, refilling their water, letting them outside frequently to go to the bathroom, picking up their poop on walks, brushing them, taking out ticks, and more! I am also knowledgable about what they can and cannot eat.

About: I love pooches of all kinds, but have a special affinity for Boxers and Staffordshire Terriers and other short-haired dogs of their ilk. I grew up with dogs and owned two boxers for much of my adult life. Now that my last boxer has passed, I need to get all my dog love by taking care of yours! I live in the West End of Portland and prefer to work nearby, but can travel for the right friends. I work part-time so have some extra hours to give to walking and loving other peoples best friends. I don't have any pet of my own right now, so I really appreciate loving others. I used to have pets, but these days, we spend all of our homecare on our three-year-old human child, who is more than enough :-p

Most importantly, she has a heart of gold and she sincerely loves dogs. She will take care of any dog with loving care and keep them happy and safe.”


Julie B.
“Julie grew up with animals all around her including horses, goats, and certainly dogs. She enjoys playing with dogs whether it is by tossing a toy to be chased/fetched or wrestling and chasing dogs directly.
