Dog Walkers in Kenduskeag, ME

“Elli was terrific! She came for a Meet and Greet and was a wonderful person and sweet to our girl Ducky who is high energy. Elli kept us updated and made our day trip to NH relaxing knowing she was taking Ducky on some walks.”

About: I used to work in a Kennel and worked with many different breeds of dogs and cats. I have worked with mean dogs and lovely dogs. I have worked with senior dogs as well. Growing up I have always had animals in my house and I always plan to. I work at a senior care facility in 3 days a week, 12 hour shifts. Seeing as I do work long shifts, my mother is able to run over and let dogs out during the day. I help a friend out at Dirigo Pines every so often, usually for 6 hours, but can take breaks. Other than that I just sit at the house I'm at amd relax. I dont get out of work late, usually six and feed dinner when I get home. I dont have any pets at the moment, but always have throughout my life. I have had a deaf cat, senior dogs and small animals. I can give medication if needed. I also try to take wals if the weather is nice.

“Justin and Eva were very happy and enthusiastic about meeting my dog, Bruce. They listened to all my recommendations and did a successful 1 hour walk, even in the rain! Very pleasant people to work with.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own. I’ve also cat-sat for my boyfriend’s cats, so I’m experienced with both dogs and cats of all personalities. I worked at a farm and garden store, where I learned a lot about pet nutrition, treats, supplements, and toys. I know how to recognize signs of stress or discomfort in pets and believe animals need to stay active and engaged to stay happy and healthy. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet company, I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stimulated. Even though I’m new to professional pet sitting, I’ll treat your pets like my own and give them the care and attention they deserve. I’m a college student with a very flexible schedule! I have classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays until 11:50 a.m., and on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 12:15 p.m. I just need to be back for meetings at 4 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesdays. Other than that, my schedule is wide open for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting! I love spending my free time with animals, so I’ll always make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care Since I live in the dorms, I don’t board pets in my room, but I’m happy to care for them in your home. I always take time to make sure pets feel safe and comfortable and follow all routines and instructions carefully. I’m attentive to signs of stress or discomfort and make sure each pet gets the calm, patient care they need. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same love and respect I give my own.

“Anna is a life saver. Even though our pup can be shy and a bit reactive, Anna was able to work her magic. Super communicative and all around nice person.”

“Daisy was great with our young puppy! He's barely socialized yet and he loved her immediately! She also got him to enjoy a long walk when he hasn't been too keen on walks yet. Daisy was a pleasure to work with; easy going, respectful of our boundaries, and happy to schedule us whenever she could. Highly recommend!!”

“Thank you for walking her in this dreary weather!”

About: I have been taking care of other peoples pets for my whole life and am a huge dog person! I have watched dogs long term a couple times and have owned all sorts of pets growing up. I am free most afternoons but am able to work early mournings if needed. If you need someone to do a longer walks I have time and enjoy high activity dogs. I love carrying for animals and have a love for dogs and researching training methods. I also enjoy high energy dogs and will go for extra long walks if your dog has extra exercise to get they’re energy out.

About: I’ve had pets all my life – cats and dogs. I can’t imagine having a home without animals. Currently, I have 2 very loving German Shepherds and a cat. I’ve used Rover for years to find sitters for my own pets and now that I’m retired I’m excited to fill some of my time looking after other people’s babies. Since I’m retired, I’m open to a variety of schedules. Ideally I would like to avoid night visits but am happy to drop in anytime during the day. I believe all pets should be spoiled and loved unconditionally. During drop in visits, I will make sure your pets have all their needs met and do everything I can to comfort them in their owners absence.

About: I've been caring for cats and dogs my whole life, and it's something that's become second nature to me. I currently have two cats and one dog, and each of them has their own unique personality and needs. Over the years, I've learned how to read their behaviors, provide the right nutrition, and create a safe, loving environment for them to thrive in. From playful moments to quiet companionship, caring for them has brought me so much joy and a deep sense of responsibility. Whether it's grooming, training, or those unexpected trips to the vet, pet care has taught me patience, empathy, and the true meaning of unconditional love. Pet care is a regular and important part of my daily routine. I start each morning by feeding my two cats and my dog, making sure they all have fresh water. I take my dog out for a walk in the morning and again in the evening, which also gives us some good exercise and bonding time. Throughout the day, I clean the litter boxes, check on my pets to make sure they’re comfortable, and give them attention or play with them when I can. In the evenings, I often brush them or do basic grooming if needed. Taking care of them has become a natural part of my schedule — it keeps me grounded and gives my day a sense of structure and purpose. I will update my schedule here weekly. I work full time in Bangor, so I would be available any day after 4PM always, and then three or four days a week I will have open availability. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I make sure they’re fed on a consistent schedule, have clean water, and receive plenty of attention and exercise. I clean litter boxes daily for my cats and take my dog out for regular walks. I also spend time grooming them and watching for any signs of health issues. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely, stick to the pet’s usual routine to minimize stress, and treat their home and animals with the same care and respect I give my own. I make sure to communicate clearly with the owner and provide updates so they feel at ease while away.

About: Hi I’m Olivia, I’m a veterinary assistant working through getting my Veterinary Technician license online and I also have a bachelors in animal sciences! Along with currently working at a veterinary clinic, I also worked as a care technician in a shelter for 4 years, helping animals and caring for them is my passion, and along side that I love helping people as well. I’m well versed in handling dogs of all sizes from walking them to providing them with medication! I’ve been around animals my whole life from dogs and cats to horses and cows and would love to help you as well! I work a full time job but having plenty of time on my days off and before/after work to take care of critters, generally my weekends are pretty open and I’m willing to make a drive :) I promise to treat your furry friends as if they’re a part of my own family - no litter box will be too dirty to clean and no dog will be too energetic to handle. My main foal is to treat every animal with the compassion and respect they deserve

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid, I’ve had all different breeds and love them all. Allow me to love and care for your fur babies the same way! I’m currently in college and working part time! But I still have lots of free time in the mornings and some afternoons to spend time with your fur babies! In your home I will respect it the same way I respect my own. I don’t push any boundaries and listen to all your rules. I’ll hangout with your fur babies and we’ll have all the fun together!

About: Hi! My name is Madeline. I am a passionate animal person and have been caring for animals pretty much my entire life. I've personally owned dogs, cats, horses, birds, fish, hamsters and cared for ferrets, snakes, and a variety of livestock/farm animals. I label myself as a true animal lover and pride myself on being able to connect with animals on a special level. I have been a professional sitter/dog walker for over 8 years now, and am ready to take on more clients. I do have a small home so I can only take 1-2 bookings at a time. I always aim to have a respectful relationship with owners and try to be as honest and helpful as possible! I have many, many references available. I look forward to meeting your pets! I am super flexible and always willing to hear your needs and see what we can make work, especially with the busy-ness that is the holidays. So feel free to reach out and I’ll see how I can best accommodate you and your pets 🙂 I do work a full time job M-F My schedule is designed to be flexible and meet multiple pet owners needs. Let me know what your fur baby needs and we’ll get it arranged. I have a small cat who prefers to keep to herself. My home is dog proof and although I don’t have a fenced yard but I have wonderful walking areas in my community so your pet will end up with more walk time and socialization than just staying in a yard.

About: I grew up with dogs in the family and with friends with furry friends as well! I’ve always been surrounded by them :) My friend had a Dalmatian puppy while we were in college so I helped out a bunch with their pet needs such as walking, feeding, playing etc. My work schedule right now is pretty clear so most of my whole week is very free to help take care of your pet needs when you need an extra hand! My environment is very pet friendly with multiple parks nearby to play with your furry friend and for them to use the bathroom when needed as well! I can’t wait to help out with your furry friend!

About: I use to dog sit my grandma's dog, Ava, all the time before she passed away, giving her baths and walks as well as the occasional 5am pee time. I also have taken care of my friends one year old Corgi for a few days while they were out of town. I am a musician so my days are usually very open. I drop my partner off at work at 3pm and pick her up at night. During these times I am completely free to take car of your furry child. I will let them sniff and roam where they may when on leash or in an enclosed area. I will take long walks and play with them as needed so they feel worked out. I love rewarding good behavior so I'll help in basic commands with little treats as rewards.

About: I have taken care and watched over fur babies for over 5 years. I love all kinds of pets and helping friends in my community! I am a hairstylist, I have three day weekends and love spending my spare time doing things I love, pets have always been a huge part in my life. I love taking your dog on walks around home, or close to. I also pop in for little visits I’m good with dogs of all ages!!

About: I have volunteered at my local humane society for 3 years, walking dogs and cleaning their kennels. I grew up with three dogs, and farm animals, and have always loved animals. I am currently a freshman at Umass Amherst, with availability Fridays, Monday and Wednesday mornings until 2pm, and occasional weekends. I am available to do check ups if given enough time to plan and respond! While I cannot house sit in my own house, I can in the client's home. I will follow specific directions given, and make sure the pups are fed, played with, and let out.

About: Hello Pet Parents, My name is Maleeka and I’m a former emergency veterinary hospital receptionist and current nursing student. My love for animals started at a young age. My first job was at a local, family owned pet store when I was 14. I’ve been caring for animals for 20 years and hope to continue to do so for years to come. Pet Care would fit into my weekly routine as I’m currently a part time college student with a flexible schedule to provide pet sitting services. I’m home full time and my courses are online. I live in a quiet neighborhood away from the main road and traffic. I have a large, unfenched backyard surrounded by woods at the edge of the property. Taking care of a pet at a client’s resident would depend on their house’s location etc.

About: In addition to owning my own dogs and cats since I was little, I’ve been volunteering to walk dogs for a local shelter since 2017 I work part time, so I have plenty of time to help care for your pets! I’m available weekdays but can be flexible on weekends if needed I can easily crate and watch your animals if needed, I have lots of experience with even the most resistant dogs to help ensure their safety

About: My family has five dogs, training has been one of my hobbies since childhood! When it comes to dogs I have been there and done that- there is nothing your dog could do to surprise me. I come from a farming veterinary family so I am equipped to look for any warning signs should your pup need any care during my visit. I also have two cats of my own that are dog friendly and very curious. My goal is to keep your pets happy, healthy, and entertained! If your pet has any special medical needs or needs to be administered medication, I am more than happy to accommodate that. I am also a pet parent to two adorable kittens, I know the patience they require and how rewarding they are. Hope I get to meet you and your furry friend soon! Do you have more than one pet? No worries! I only charge +$5 per pet, the more the merrier! I am a law student with a summer internship, meaning I am unavailable during the work week 9-5. I am available the rest of the week and would love to coordinate a schedule with you. Communication is key! If I notice anything is off, I will alert you right away. Every pet is different, some are simply quirky- it is important that I let you know if I see any abnormal behaviour. I have experience with dogs with severe anxiety, injuries, joint problems, behaviour issues, you name it. If your pet needs any sort of special care, I will be happy to help. If I see any concerning behaviour I will let you know immediately and we can plan from there the course of action that needs to be taken.
