“Brooklynn was wonderful with our dog Otto! She sent us frequent updates and photos, took him for fun adventures, and made sure he was happy and safe while we were away for the weekend. She left our house spotless too! We would definitely love to have Brooklynn spend time with Otto again. Thank you, Brooklynn!”

“I highly recommend John! He asked questions to clarify my dogs needs, sent regular updates and even shared photos. His attentiveness allowed me to enjoy my few days out of town without worrying about my 2 senior dogs.”

“Sam was wonderful with River. She was great with communication and sent frequent updates and pictures which we appreciated immensely. Having Penney come over for play dates was a bonus. We look forward to having Sam care for River again in the future. We both felt very comfortable with her which made our vacation more enjoyable!”

“Clear communication and professional in all aspects.”

“Sparrow was great. They were very attentive to Lilly and Brynn and showed them tons of love. They took time to understand and adhere to Lilly’s strict medication schedule which is critical to her care. They sent plenty of updates to let us know our girls were being cared for and happy. Lilly and Brynn are looking forward to spending more time with their new friend!”

Michael C.

“I can’t recommend Heather highly enough. She was so sweet with our dogs and very thorough during our initial meeting. While we were out of town, she stayed at our house and went above and beyond caring for babies and our space- she vacuumed at the end of her stay and even shoveled our deck, both without being asked. Each day we were gone, Heather sent us multiple photos and updates. We would book with her again in a heartbeat!”

Jen W.

“Ashton was a great sitter for our dog and cat while we traveled out of town for a few days. My dog can be a bit anxious so it’s always a bit nerve wrecking leaving her with someone else but Ashton was up for the challenge and my anxious girl warmed right up to her. She even made an extra trip over during the day when my dog was having a little bit of a panic moment. Will definitely use her again!”

“Sarah was excellent at taking care of Sesame and Bob. I felt at ease knowing they were under her care while I was away. She gave constant updates and took photos of the dogs so that I know they were doing good. Thanks so much for taking good care of them!”

Melody T.

“I cannot recommend Ryan highly enough! Leaving my high-needs, anxious dog for a work trip is always a source of stress, but Ryan completely put my mind at ease. From our initial meet-and-greet, it was clear that Ryan is not only a true animal lover but also incredibly knowledgeable and patient. My dog requires a lot of extra attention and can be quite nervous with new people, but Ryan handled him with such a calm and confident demeanor. I received regular updates, including photos that showed my dog was not just being cared for, but was comfortable in Ryan's hands. This consistent communication was invaluable and allowed me to focus on my work knowing Oliver was okay. Ryan went above and beyond to alleviate his anxiety and let him have the space he need to feel comfortable. I returned home to a happy, relaxed dog, which is the best indicator of the excellent care he received. In addition, the house was spotless which is always nice to return home too. If you're looking for a pet sitter who is reliable, compassionate, and truly understands how to care for anxious or high-needs pets, Ryan is absolutely the one to choose.”

About: I grew up dogs from the time I was little- labs, retrievers, shepherds- and had a special needs rescue dog with my partner for many years who lived to be fifteen. When she passed, my partner and I started boarding and house sitting regularly and have built up a pretty cute little pack. I am comfortable giving oral medication and upholding your dog’s schedule, house rules, and love to take field trips whenever possible. My favorite is when a dog can come with me everywhere, so smaller senior pups have become my specialty, but I can’t help but love all the dogs who come along. As a videographer and Maine youth basketball coach I have a lot of flexibility in my work schedule and spend a lot of time working from home editing videos. I’m fairly active, always happy to take breaks from work to walk around the neighborhood or find a pet-friendly beach to run around on. I’m in an apartment very close to Deering Oaks Park and the Western Prom. The apartment is a compact second story walk up and has been carefully maintained to keep it safe for curious noses.

“Took great care of our two German shepherds. He was highly responsive to all communications and our dogs were really good with him. Highly recommend.”

“Paige was very prompt in her response, a great communicator and left my dog and my house in excellent condition. Would definitely hire again!”

Katherine K.

“Jay stayed with my dog Lucy while I went on a business trip across the country and she was so wonderful with my sweet old girl. She was very curious about Lucy’s needs and communicated with me and shared some pictures along the way. I came home to a happy dog and I’m so grateful to Jay for taking such good care of her!”

Heidi U.

“Returned home after a weekend away to two very happy, well cared for dogs. Celine provides multiple updates per day, sending cute pics and videos of our pups playing. Very grateful for Céline!”

Gina R.

“Shirley is the best! She took wonderful care of George, was an excellent communicator, navigated some crazy windstorms, tended to my old boy like her was her own and left the house immaculate!! I would highly recommend Shirley and am very blessed to have found her.”
