“She was awesome! She managed to wear out my very high energy puppy which is no small feat. I could tell as soon as I got home that my puppy was happy. She was also super responsive and sweet! Will definitely book again.”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. Having had multiple breeds myself, I am familiar with the different needs that dogs require. I’m a certified dog trainer who is available for walks, boarding, drop ins and daycare. I am a stay at home mom, who has two dogs of her own. My schedule is pretty flexible for walks and daycare. I’m available pretty regularly. I have a fenced in yard, that contains my two Australian Shepherds. It is a chain link fence so dogs will be able to see through the fence. I let my dogs out regularly to play, where they have access to water outside as well as inside. While dogs are playing, I am present in order to intervene if there is any issues that arise (dogs are unpredictable and can get overwhelmed at times). Dogs are allowed on the furniture in the house, and will have access to toys to play with.

About: I've taken care of dogs & cats for as long as I can remember. We keep our pets until they pass that rainbow bridge. I am very reliable and will always send updated photos every time I am with your pet to remind you they are in good hands. I am also experienced with large breeds and the tiniest of pets! Early mornings before school, or in the evenings are great as well. I usually sit outside with a cup of coffee in the morning so they can run around, then in the evening the door is open with free roam to come in & out. If care is done in my home we have a fenced-in backyard and two of our own dogs to play with. I also have two playful children who can play fetch for hours! If care is done in your home depending on being watched in a fenced backyard or on a leash. Your dog will be watched and given the attention they deserve.

About: Nice to meet you! I’m Victoria! I’m a high school English teacher looking to make some extra cash over summer break. I’ve been taking care of animals through Rover for about 4 years now and I’d love to add some more babies to the mix! I’ve taken care of animals all my life! I’ve volunteered at animal shelters multiple times over the last couple of years! I have four, yes 4, cats of my own who I love more than anything so I feel very confident in my abilities to take care of cats and I’ve had dogs all of my life. I’ll always do my best to treat your babies like they’re my own :) Pet care is an everyday thing for me. I have 4 cats and I love each of them so much it's insane. Of course, I do my best to scoop their litter boxes as often as possible and make sure they always have water. Even when I'm tired or don't feel like scooping, I do my best to take good care of my babies, even if it's just giving them a little extra attention. They are my world :) Like most people, I believe animals should be treated with love and patience. My animals are given lots of love and attention. Making sure my cats have everything they need and all the love possible is so important to me! I am more than happy to give your animals as much love as I can! Making sure they have enough food, water, and outside time is vital to keeping them happy and healthy. If any medicine should be administered, I will make sure to administer it correctly and at the correct times to ensure they are as taken care of as possible.

About: I love love love cats and dogs! I’m a proud fur mom with 3 cats and have cared for pets in my own home and in my neighborhood since I was a child. I'm completely self-employed in pet care and home help so I'm a great fit for folks who need someone with regular availability- and folks who'd like additional help outside of their pet care needs! Some particulars: I have experience with senior dogs and cats and am happy to provide special care, including administering medications) when it's needed. I can aid/assist with any current training goals (obedience, behavior modification, housebreaking, etc.) if you are able to brief on those goals and the current strategy. Always glad to help your babies have a happier life knowing that they are pleasing you and staying safe! I own and operate a boutique personal supports business so pet care, home organization and management, and running errands are all part of my day-to-day business. I am available (with-in reason) to craft my schedule around my clients' needs. Let’s talk about how I can help you! I am happy to care for pets of all shapes and sizes : ) When I work with dogs, I will reward polite behavior (like sitting for pets and attention) and discourage impolite behavior (like jumping, snatching, or any dangerous behavior).

About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. My first pet was a stray cat I named Smokey when I was 3 years old. We rescued my first dog, Lucky, from the pound for my fourth Christmas. I was gifted my first chocolate lab, Wesson, for my 6th birthday. I rescued a litter of kittens who’s mom got ran over by a car when I was 10. I still have two of those cats to this day - Prince and Tiggy (14 years old, happy, and spoiled rotten). When I went off to college I adopted my soul dog, a black lab I named Enzo, from the Humane Society. Unfortunately, he passed away in November of last year. The point is, I’m a genuine animal lover who will treat your pets like my own - because that’s what they’ll be in my care. Nothing brings me more joy than a dog licking my face or a cat rubbing against my leg. I promise your babies are safe with me. Not only will they be safe, they’ll be happy :) I’m currently working full time Monday through Friday 8-5. I can walk dogs, check on pets, play with them, etc. before 8 AM, during my lunch break 12-1, and after work (5 PM). I am completely open and free on Saturdays and Sundays. My apartment has a fenced in dog park right across from my apartment building that is very rarely used, but in good condition. I have two cats that I can keep locked on one side of the house if your animals prefer no company :). I am very flexible and can adjust to most needs your babies might have!

About: I have taken care of animals since I was young and have plenty of experience with being a sitter. I also have a degree in biology/zoology which provides me work more information on the furry friends I work with. I am currently a pilates instructor who makes my own schedule so I am plenty flexible. I will most likely be available on the weekends. I live in a safe apartment with my husband. We have no pets or kids. We have a large field in the back of our apartment which would be great for a leashed fur baby to play in.

About: I have been riding horses for 10+ years therefore I have a lot of experience handling animals (especially large ones). I also have 2 cats as well, who are my babies. I have experience pet sitting and dog walking, with many breeds! Each animal deserves all the love and the best care, so let me give that care to your fur baby! I am a graduate student so I do have class during the week. I am hoping to fit pet care into my schedule whenever I can and whenever the opportunity pops up. I love all animals, so just getting to play with your pets for even 20 minutes would make my day! Although I will not be offering in home services, I will be offering pet sitting services in the client’s home. I can take your pets for walks, let them outside, put them in their crate, and provide all other care for them as well.

About: I grew up with 3 dogs at a time, if not more, for most of my life. I’ve had 4 cats. I also grew up with nine goldfish caught from the fair that are all still alive today. I currently have one family dog, one family cat, and nine goldfish. I am a full time student at USM and an active member of the sorority, Delta Delta Delta. I will make this job one of my top priorities. At home, my dog is well trained and she is an outside and inside dog. She loves going on boat rides and we make sure that she gets plenty of love all the time. For clients, I will precisely follow instructions and treat the client’s pet like my own.

About: I’ve taken care of family dogs since I was 8. I have helped train dogs from puppy age to do basic commands as well as crate train. I’m currently a full time graduate student but I have online classes so in the mornings and evenings I have plenty of time to care for your pets. With my personal pet and others I ensure there is a harness and leash available for walks to make it safer and easier for me and the pet.

About: Since I can remember, my family has always had cats and dogs around. My aunt and uncle raise Belgian malinois and have had German shepherds so I know a lot about both breeds! I frequently petsit for a friend who has a bull mastiff mix. In addition, I have two dogs of my own and 5 cats. I also foster as often as I can so I have experience with short term care of animals. Currently I am on summer break as a teacher so my schedule is very open. During the school year (starting mid July), I am more limited to weekends and afternoons/evenings. I have a fenced in back yard for my two dogs and they sleep inside at night. All of my cats are inside cats and have a large scratching post and plenty toys to occupy them during the day!

About: I’ve cared for pets (dogs, cats & more!) for almost my entire life. I understand that pets are family & deserve the best! I am able to provide sitting/check-ins/walking/feeding/bathing and giving medication! I also have a relatively open schedule! I am available most days, my work schedule is pretty flexible! I mainly work weekends, but still have solid times during those days to help if any pets need check-ins, feedings, or walks! I have three indoor cats & a puppy! All are unique and have different needs, so I am familiar with most types of care! Routine is important in my pet’s lives, so I would take a client’s care schedule as serious as my own!

Ashley D.
“Ashley was amazing with our new puppy. She helped up with some initial training and tips and tricks to acclimate our new dog to the family. Ashley continued to be available after the fact as well for any questions or concerns I had. We used Ashley to board our puppy several times and we’re very comfortable leaving our dog Ruby with her. She sent up updates and pictures without being asked and she reiterated manners and behaviors we were working on at home. She loved our dog like her own and Ashley would be the first person I would recommend for anyone looking!”

She’ll make your pet(s) feel loved and cared for while you’re away.”


Laura Lee P.Star Sitter
“Laura Lee took magnificent care of our 4 dogs and 1 cat while we were away for the week. Two of our girls are elderly and need medication (1 cat + 1 dog), and two of the others are high-energy, large-breed puppies. This is all to say that it was no small feat that when we came home our house was orderly and our pets were calm as cucumbers. It was clear they had been well cared for. I was particularly impressed with the care given to my elderly kitty, who normally can be a bit spicy and needs help getting up and down on the furniture. Laura Lee completely won her over, making sure she got extra cuddles and loads of attention. When we returned she seemed even more relaxed than when we left. Laura Lee is an experienced animal carer and it shows. Best pet sitter I've ever had.”
