Dog Sitting Portland

About: Helloo! I am Mandy! Hanging out with my pups is my absolute favorite part of the day, so I figured why not spread the love and start my pet care journey! I have a BIG heart for all animals, currently having two of my very own (Tito Archibald, our sweet/snorty 8 year old Frenchie & Mr Milton our cuddly 11 year old chihuahua. I am very comfortable with all sizes and breeds, as I am also very responsible + trustworthy. I would love to help out & put your mind at ease, knowing your babies are in good hands. Hope to hear from you soon!! I currently live in Southington CT, but I work parttime as a Hair Stylist in Glastonbury, as well as a being a Real Estate Agent in Hartford/Middlesex County ~ so I am all over CT! My schedule is pretty flexible I have a nice big fenced in yard with lots of toys if I am hosting your pet for the day. I am also very respectful of other peoples homes // cautious, clean + attentive.

About: I have owned and cared for pots of all types and kinds since I was a child, particularly cats and dogs. As an adult, I have owned three dogs and four cats and deeply enjoy the experience of being a pet parent myself. I have cared for, walked, fed, and watched overnight for many length of days many cats and dogs for my friends, family and professionally. I understand the nuances of what is required for individual pet care and how to follow directions carefully. I'm in excellent communicator and want to ensure that my pet parents that I work for are kept in the loop and feel comfortable with my service! I take special care to ensure that each individual pet is cared for in the way that they need and particularly to ensure that no animal is ever let out without being on the leash or let out at all if they are a cat. I genuinely enjoy playing with cats and dogs and making sure that they get the adequate exercise and stimulation that they need. I look forward to caring for your pet soon! Ps, I am very strong and have experience with walking large dogs, as powerlifting is a hobby of mine in my spare time! Since I work from home part-time, I have lots of flexibility and fluidity to care for someone's pet or meet a need at the last minute. I live in Central Connecticut which is very close to every County and I'm comfortable taking a drive if needed. I have an extremely flexible schedule between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. I would only be providing services in other people's homes to let them out or feed them daily or any kind of walking or playing services. In my own home, I currently have two cats who enjoy free reign of the home. We do also have a fenced in yard fully, but at this time I would not be offering that service in my own home.

About: I have experience using rover as a dog mom as i have four dogs myself and have needed some help along the way! I care for all animals as if they are my own. I know how scary it can be to trust others with my fur babies! I have cared for puppies from 8 weeks up to 18 year old seniors. Rest assured if you book with me your fur baby will be in good hands. I’m currently working from home with control over my schedule so I am pretty flexible as long as I do not have appointments scheduled during requested times. Along with interference taking care of my own pets. I am currently not offering care at my own home as I have animals of my own, but I am available for care in your home which I think makes the animals feel more comfortable anyways! I love being outside and going for walks so whether you’re in the city or suburbs we will enjoy long walks together and help get that pent up energy out.

“I am extremely happy with Joanna! My dog, Loki had a fantastic time and he was just as happy as he usually is, I could totally tell by the pictures she sent me all the time. I am very grateful for the time she spent with him and how well she took care of him. I will definitely have her stay with him again in the future.”

About: I have owned dogs my entire life, both big and small. I currently have 2 dogs of my own, Twig and Bugs and I foster puppies for a local rescue. I love all dogs! I work as a nurse in the NICU and typically work 36 hours a week night shift. I usually have an entire week off every third week. My schedule is pretty flexible and I am willing to do what I can to work around your needs! I would love to take your dogs for a walk or let them out in your yard. I would even bring them to the park to let them run around as much as possible. I’m not a huge fan of dog parks because they can be unpredictable, but I will do whatever works best for you and your pup!

About: I have over 12 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, including large dogs up to 115 pounds. I’ve owned and raised dogs from the puppy stage through their senior years, so I understand how different their needs can be at every stage of life. I have experience with puppy training, reinforcing basic commands, crate routines, frequent potty breaks, high-energy dogs, and keeping younger dogs entertained and active. I’m also comfortable caring for senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra patience, more frequent breaks, or simply some extra love and attention. What sets me apart is the amount of individual attention I’m able to provide. I work remotely with a very flexible schedule, so I’m home almost all day and can adjust my routine around your dog’s normal schedule. For boarding, I only take one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your dog won’t be in a house full of unfamiliar animals competing for attention. My home is also pet-free, child-free, and non-smoking, giving your dog a calm and comfortable place to stay. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual feeding, walking, sleeping, training, and crate routines so their stay feels as close to home as possible. And yes, dogs are welcome on the furniture here! 🐶❤️ I work remotely in marketing with a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I’m home almost 24/7, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule can easily be adjusted around each pet’s normal routine and individual needs. Whether your pet is used to early morning walks, specific feeding times, frequent puppy potty breaks, or just lots of companionship throughout the day, I’m happy to accommodate their schedule as closely as possible. My availability is very open, including weekdays and weekends! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, it’s just my partner and me with no children or pets of our own, so your pet will have a calm, spacious environment. I only board one family’s pet(s) at a time so I can focus on their needs and help them feel comfortable and at home. My yard is unfenced, so dogs will always be leashed and supervised when outside. Inside, pets are welcome to get comfortable and are allowed on the furniture unless you prefer otherwise. I’m also familiar with crates and happy to follow your pet’s normal crate, feeding, walking, sleeping, and potty routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of both your pet’s routine and your space. I’ll follow all instructions closely, make sure doors and entrances are secure, keep dogs leashed during walks, and give you updates so you know how your pet is doing. I’m happy to discuss any special instructions, behaviors, or safety concerns beforehand so I can provide care that is tailored to your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of small-medium dogs short-term and long-term. Friends and family know my love for dogs and always call me for dog sitting. I want to get one of my own soon! I’m currently working from home and have lots of flexibility. I also love to go on short and long walks myself and would love to help someone out and walk a pet while I go for my walks! After pet sitting in the past, I’ve been told I did a wonderful job and that their pet loved being with me. I offer a fun and caring environment, follow schedule as provided, and go out for many walks. I’ve usually done sitting at the clients home so the pet is most comfortable in its own home.

“Samantha was wonderfully patient and kind with my anxious kitty! She provided detailed updates after each drop-in visit, and when I came home my cat was much more chill than usual.”

About: I have been taking care of my own dog since I was 8 years old. I have been surrounded by dogs my whole entire life as my family and I are big dog lovers. I also have experience with cats because I have 5 cats as well! I have experience with senior dog care as well! At this time, I can care for pets at any time during the week, with some short time spans not available here and there. For example if I were to have a doctors appointment At this time, I am able to take care of dogs in my own home as well as in the clients home. If it is an overnight, I do prefer it to be in my home. Safety is always important to me and I always make sure the house is similar to “baby proofed” so the animal can’t get into anything dangerous or escape.

“I’m new to Rover but I hit the jackpot when Isabel was assigned to care for my two pups. She thinks of everything and cares for them with such love and kindness.”
