Active dogsitter working from home!

Pet care experience

I am a young professional living in the West End of Portland. I live alone in a 2 bedroom condo that can accommodate all types of pets. I work remotely (in international development/sustainability), so I’ve got lots of time for walking and pet care built into my day. During the day, your pet would be welcome to hang out anywhere in my office, living room, or around my apartment. I live near an off leash dog park, and we have several other great parks in the nearby area. For fun, I spend a lot of time outside running, hiking, and going on adventures in Maine and New Hampshire. For active dogs, I’m often at the beach, snowshoeing, etc. I was born on a farm in Windham where we had a variety of animals, and have always had pets growing up. Currently my job keeps me from having a dog, so I’d love to take care of yours!

John was fantastic! I received many photos and updates of all the fun activities he and Mosin did together. Lots of running, hiking, and outdoor activities! My dog came home happy and exhausted, which is all I could ever want.

John was great with Willow! This was her first experience with out-of-home care, and John made her feel right at home. Loved that he sent me photos. I will definitely trust John again with the care of my dog.

John is the best dog sitter! Sophie can be very anxious at times, but I could tell in the photos she was having the best time.! I will definitely be requesting John again.. Over 5 stars easily!

A typical day

For smaller dogs, the West End is a great walking neighborhood, with lots to see and smell. Nearby is the Western Cemetery, Western Prom, and McInytre Park. For longer walks, the Eastern Prom and Back Bay have great trails. In warmer weather, I’d love to take your dog to the Cape Elizabeth beaches, Mackworth Island, and the great state parks in southern Maine. For very active dogs, they would be welcome to join me for mid and long distance runs.
