Doggy Day Care In Portsmith

“Lajetta was a great dog sitter for our doodles! She kept us updated throughout the day with pictures & we could tell the doodles were being loved, cared for & comfortable.”

“Annika and John were great with our pup. Their sweet dog Pepper was the perfect playmate too. No issues and quick responses. We’d definitely book with them again!”

Sam V.

“Peter took my puppy on more walks than he gets at home! He came home tired, which is hard to do with this fella. I appreciated the generous care he offered my puppy.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, birds, fish and rodents and have taken care of them my whole life- training, washing, walking, playing, etc. I have booked many clients with Rover and feel very confident in my ability to gain trust from both humans and animals. I love animals with my whole heart and would love to help take care of yours! My schedule is currently open, so I can provide pet care mornings, afternoons, evenings, or weekends as needed. I’m reliable and adaptable, and I’m happy to coordinate with pet owners to meet their pets’ routines. If my schedule changes due to gaining a part-time job, I’ll update availability promptly. I would love to be an additional help to anyone in need of pet care 🐶🐱 I provide drop-in care, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and enrichment for dogs, cats, and other pets. I focus on building trust and keeping pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for, while tailoring my approach to each pet’s needs and personality. Whether it’s a quick visit or a longer check-in, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and supported.

About: Grew up with pitbulls and cats in the house. I really enjoy being around them and they fit into my daily/weekly schedule extremely well. Im never away from the house for more than 4 hours and I walk for 1-3 hours everyday, I have the time to consistently walk the doggies 3-5x everyday. No dog will go without exercise when they stay with me, and if they like to be a couch potato that's ok too, I accommodate to any activity/energy level!

“Another wonderful visit at Dawn's house. She has so much fun with Dawn's daughter and their two dogs. It's a mini vacation for Maggie when she is with them. Couldn't find a better place for her when we are away.”

About: (Please read my whole profile to make sure we are a good match! If you decide to request a booking, please provide the requested information about your dog, either on your Rover site or in your inquiry. Note: I provide the walk-only service exclusively in the Kenton neighborhood. Thank you!) I have owned dogs most of my life and spent my adolescence on a small family farm. I love dogsitting and live really near North Portland VCA should there ever be an emergency. If your dog is a good leash walker, they'll get at least two walks per day; otherwise, we'll see how it goes! There is opportunity for backyard play, but I depend on walking to ensure dogs get the movement they need. There are no pets in my house at this time, so as long as your dog gets along with people, the relationships should be OK! No chewers, please; I do not close crate doors. I am a retired teacher, so I am mostly home but do go out for a variety of reasons during the day or evening sometimes. I have a fenced yard and spend lots of time in it with dogs during decent weather. If your very big dog is non-reactive, I would love to host your very big dog. 🐶 (I do not board puppies but do walk puppies. Just please do not ask me to close the door on a crate.) Please ensure your dog is flea-free.

“Frank enjoys spending his time with Don (and Hunter) very much. He gets excited when we pull up to the house, because he knows he's in for a day of fun and VIP treatment. I highly recommend Don and Melodie for both Daycare and Boarding.”

“Absolutely love Larissa and my pup does too!”

“Tyson had the best day! Heath is kind, friendly and natural with dogs. They were very easy to schedule with and great communication. Tyson can’t wait to come back.”

Dina S.

“Took great care of Spike and showed him a good time! Kate took him to the dog park (his favorite place) and got him some treats at the local pet store (his second favorite place)”

Dylan C.

“Evita was incredible! She watched Miso while I had a 12hr shift at work, and was extremely accommodating with drop off and pick up time. She sent lots of updates and was very understanding when my nervous dog wouldn’t stop barking in the morning. 10/10 would recommend!!”

Rachal C.

“Storm takes a bit of time to get comfortable in new environments with new people, but she seemed to settle in easily with Gil and Peaches! We are so thankful they are patient with her separation anxiety and welcome her on daycare days!”

Gemma F.

“Wonderful, wonderful dog sitter! She was incredibly kind to my dog! Her two dogs were adorable and were great for nervous, first time in someone else’s home dogs (my dog). She took them on frequent walks, communicative about eating, treats, potty, and nap time and sent many pictures. I’d recommend her to anyone with small-medium dogs that need somewhere to go either sitting or boarding. One issue I faced which wasn’t a huge deal, was in the middle of my reservation the rate of sitting increased to almost double the initial rate I paid for. My intial booking was 15/day and I asked for one more day of sitting, and the entire reservation was modified to 25/day. It caught me off guard since it was the middle of the week and I was caught off guard with the new price. The service was worth the new rate, just wanted transparency there.”

“Jules took great care of my little pup and kept me posted with the most hilarious videos. He had the best time!”

About: Hi! I’m a full-time animal lover offering boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and a calm, confident cat who are both very used to being around other animals. They help create a relaxed, safe environment for visiting pets. I treat every pet like my own—whether that means playtime, walks, or just giving them a calm space to relax. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m happy to accommodate different energy levels and personalities, and I can separate pets if needed to ensure everyone stays safe and stress-free. I’m currently building my client base, so I’m very flexible and available—including last-minute bookings. I’d love to meet you and your pet! I do pet sitting full-time, so I’m able to provide lots of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. My schedule is very flexible, including availability for many last-minute bookings. I focus on creating a calm, structured, and stress-free environment where pets can settle in comfortably. I pay close attention to body language, routines, and individual needs to help every pet feel secure while they’re away from home. I can easily separate pets when needed and always prioritize safe introductions, supervision, and a clean environment. I also have a fully fenced in backyard.

“Took my 3 year old female GSD to Allen’s for daycare and had a good first time experience. Got to meet the other dogs and see her interact with them. Lots of photos and videos throughout the day, which really helps you feel at ease for a first time drop off. Good to know the dogs are running around getting their exercise. We plan to continue using Allen’s services.”

“Ronnie did a great job taking care of my pup Alro! He has great communication and provided lots of exercise and rest for my dog. I would definitely recommend.”

I am currently home from college for summer break and have full availability for overnight stays, boarding, walks, and more. I am currently looking for a part time job so daytime availability may change. I have two friendly dogs of my own to keep your dog company, as well as a large fenced in backyard.
