Dog Walking Orrs Island

About: For many years I have provided compassionate care for dogs, cats, and even farm animals. Having had a rescue farm for 20 years, I have had the privilege of adopting and rescuing dogs, cats, sheep and goats and caring for each of them from homing to crossing the Rainbow Bridge. In addition to providing care for pets of all ages, I especially welcome the opportunity to care for senior pets making sure they receive the gentle attention, patience, and love they deserve in their golden years. I look forward to caring for your pet as you do! I have the flexibility of being available to make time to take care of your family pet during the week or weekend. The earlier you can let me know works best but do feel free to reach out if you have an immediate need. Harpswell is comprised of three peninsulas. My primary service area is Orr's and Bailey Islands with the possibility of traveling to an additional area upon request. Just let me know how and what you would like me to do to provide the care you need for your pet(s) in your home.

About: Hi! My name is Brooke, and I have a lifelong love for animals. I grew up caring for both dogs and cats and currently have dogs of my own. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets who need a little extra patience and care. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone keep them company, I’ll do my best to follow their routine and give them the care they deserve. I have experience caring for large dogs, reactive dogs, senior pets, and cats with different personalities and needs. I am also comfortable giving oral medications and injections/shots when needed, following your pet’s care instructions carefully. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. During visits, I can provide fresh water, meals, potty breaks, playtime, medication administration, and plenty of love and attention. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving you peace of mind that your furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 Brooke Mathews, you’re pets new best friend :) My schedule is very flexible. I recently graduated high school and will be attending college locally at SMCC, where I will be studying Early Childhood Education. Since I will be commuting, I have availability throughout the week for drop-in visits and walks. Outside of school, I spend most of my time caring for my two German Shepherds, spending time with my two sisters, and enjoying walks by the water. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I love being active and spending time outdoors. I do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s schedule and will always communicate clearly about my availability. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and trusted environment for every pet in my care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them out for a walk, I take the time to learn their routine, understand their needs, and build trust at their own pace. For dog owners: I am confident handling both large and small dogs, including those who may be reactive or require extra leash awareness. I focus on keeping walks safe, enjoyable, and tailored to each dog’s comfort level and personality while maintaining close attention to their surroundings. For cat owners: I offer drop-in visits for a time frame we discuss beforehand and will make sure your cat’s daily needs are met. Whether that includes feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I make each cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable care and give pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are being treated with patience, kindness, and respect.

About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have both a dog and a cat, which has given me hands-on experience caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I take my dog on daily walks, so I’m comfortable handling dogs and making sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need. I am responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, companionship, or overnight care, I will treat them with the same love and attention that I give my own pets. I currently work part-time during the summer and am a full-time college student during the academic year, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to care for your pets. This summer, I have ample time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a long walk, or extra attention while you're away, I am committed to providing reliable, caring, and attentive service for your furry family members. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and litter box care. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and companionship to help pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to maintain their normal routine while creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment.

About: Hi there! I'm a licensed veterinary nurse with a true passion for caring for animals — I absolutely love what I do! Over the years, I’ve had the joy of offering pet sitting services to my clients, giving them peace of mind knowing their beloved fur babies are in safe, loving hands while they’re away. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood, a game of fetch in the yard, or cozy cuddle time on the couch, I tailor each stay to what your pet loves most. If your pet has special needs, requires medication, or is recovering from surgery, you can rest assured — I have the experience and training to provide the extra care they need. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet. Let’s make their time away from you feel like a mini vacation of their own! Looking forward to connecting with you soon! I’m currently a manager at a veterinary hospital and work 3 days in the office and one day remote. My schedule is pretty flexible so I can provide care when needed. I will ask for detail instructions on routine and feedings. This way I don’t overwhelm pets with a different person in the home and stay as close to their daily routine as possible.

“Craig was AWESOME! While we were on vacation his daily Rover cards brought us laughs and assurance our Brody was well taken care of. He was thorough, caring and genuinely enjoying the time he spent with Brody. We will be FOR SURE using him again I’m the future. 11/10 would recommend!!!”

“Katie is absolutely fantastic. 1st, she was able to accommodate us extremely last minute. She took care of two of our dogs, one of which is very strong and not very good on a leash. Katie was great i'm about community back and forth about anything that she may have had questions about or vice versa. She also went out of her way and helped scoop out our cat's litter and clean up that area that they had made a mess while we were away. She was super sweet to our whole crew and we will 100% be using her again.Thanks Again Katie!!!!”

About: I’ve owned, sat for, fed, and walked dogs of all different sized since I was a child. Current owner of two small pups, but lots of room in my schedule to look after a few more. Former Cat owner, with raging kitty fever. I am available for temporary visiting/sitting jobs in the Greater Portland & Gardiner Areas, where I am Working & Located respectively. I have plenty of time in my day before & after work to visit, and room for sitting SMALL dogs. I first start by showing the pet that I am a friendly presence, I understand familiarization can take time, which is why patience is key. As soon as your pet allows me to show it affection, it is my pleasure & love to match that affection back to ensure that an environment of trust & care is effectively fostered. I can & will feed, walk, play with, and clean up after your pets so I can help them still have some of the enjoyment that they get when you’re at home.

If I am caring for your pet in your home I will make sure to follow whatever schedule you have for them. I will take them out to play often and give them lots of love.
