“He did amazing with my puppy and my other dog is the past. Would always trust him with my 4 leg babies”


2. Mary Rose H.

“I was new to the area and needed a dog walker within a few days notice. And somehow got lucky enough to stumble upon Mary Rose’s profile. She’s incredibly sweet and responsive, and truly loves animals. Whether it be just a walk in the neighborhood or staying overnight, I truly have zero worries about leaving my dog and two cats. You can tell she loves what she does. Although she’d say she was the lucky one, pretty sure I win! :)”

“Emma was great! I would recommend her to anyone for dog care services.”


5. Kate B.

“Kate might possible be the greatest dog-walker that ever was! She is considerate, kind and caring. I recently became employed and finding Kate has been a load-off-my-mind. She is so capable and professional that it took the stress of leaving my dog home completely away. Look no further. Kate is your go to girl.”

10. Erika L.
About: I am currently a senior at the University of Maine studying animal sciences on the pre vet track. I have had animals my whole life but since I have gotten here I have began to work with other animals such as cows and horses. I have also recently begun walking a senior dog this summer. I currently have a job working at a farm. However the job allows me to have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to take care of animals outside of the farm. I also take care of a family’s horses and someone’s dog. For my clients I feed their animals and let them out on a walk. For the horses I feed them, clean there stalls and let them out to run around.


11. Cassandra L.

“Cassandra was great with my two dogs. She got to know them a little and played in the yard before taking them on their walk. She took lots of pictures and gave me a good summary of the visit! She was easy to communicate with and I was relieved that my dogs were taken care of while I was stuck at work for a long day. Her background in animal care/behavior just raises my confidence in her care even more. I will absolutely consider he again for future needs.”


12. Lauren P.
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. It started with my family dog, then taking care of all of my friends dogs and now having my own puppy. I have worked in multiple animal hospitals and have experience with many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I am currently going to school as a full-time student and have extra time where I’d love to care for animals if I can. With not many classes and an open schedule it should be very easy to fit daily walks in. At home I have a dog and constantly take him for walks and different places in order for him to get out of the house.

18. Ingrid S.
About: I have always grown up with 2 Labrador retrievers, and with two working parents had to help take care of them. This grew into helping others with their own pet needs as well. I’m available most days of the week because I do work part time. So I will have plenty of time for you pet. If on the days I am working that is usually only 3 hours a day. With instructions from the owner as well, I have a large yard with room to play, but also understand that it is not fenced in, and that the dog park is also available and could be a safer option. I am willing to crate dogs as well.
