“I had a last minute booking need come up and I’m so glad I did so I could meet Elisabeth! Elisabeth was so wonderful and caring to my dog. I was really excited to see she has other small dogs, and Louise had a blast running around with her crew. Elisabeth was incredibly caring, she sent really thorough updates and made Louise feel right at home after I left. I felt so at ease knowing my sensitive little dog was so well cared for and had some friends to play with. I would absolutely bring Louise back and highly recommend Elisabeth!”



“Our pup is a sensitive, nervous guy. Marna made sure he felt loved and at home. I could tell he was having fun with her family through the photos she sent. She filled us in each day and sent photos. 🤩 Will definitely use Marna again!”


“Vicky was a great sitter for my pup, Rhody! Rhody is super shy and can be anxious but Vicky made her comfortable right from the start. I loved all the picture updates and would definitely use Vicky again!”


“Michaela was great with Barley for an evening so my wife and I could go to a festival. Even in the relatively short time, she sent multiple photos and videos of Barley clearly having a great time with Michaela, her partner, and her dog Gus. I would recommend her to anyone in Portland!”


“Claudia and Jason were an absolute lifesaver. We needed a last minute sitter while visiting Maine and they came through. Drop off was a breeze and I knew Chase was in good hands. Regular updates including photos reassured myself and the kids that Chase was doing well. I can’t thank them enough and I can honestly attest that your dog is in good hands with them. I would absolutely without hesitation use them again if we’re in town.”


“Viva was communicative and very accommodating of my puppy, and went the extra mile on short notice! I will 100% be rebooking with her, if you are looking for a sitter in the area look no further.”


“Sarah was wonderful! Our boy, King had a happy long weekend with Sarah! She sent plenty of updates and photos and made it easy to get out of town and we didn’t feel rushed to return. We will happily leave our fur baby in her care again! Thank you Sarah for taking such good care of our boy!”


“We left our four year-old cocker spaniel named Charlie with Kelly for four days. We never felt out of touch with him because Kelly gave us daily updates with pictures. Charlie was immediately comfortable with her in his new surroundings. He had lots of exercise time and came home very happy! Highly recommend!!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Alma, who invited our Whoopie into her home and family. When possible, Alma also arranges a meet and greet before the stay to ensure a good fit. Thank you so much Alma! We hope we can meet again and reunite dogs and people.”


“We were anxious about boarding our 7 mo old, but Kathleen and Dylan immediately made us feel comfortable with going away for the weekend. As a mischievous puppy with a lot of energy, it was great to see how they rose to the occasion with outdoor exercise and entertainment. Sending updates and pics kept us feeling like Homer was in good hands. The communication was great and everything went seamlessly. We would definitely use their services again!”


“Molly and her partner have a great set-up for dogs and their own friendly pups! They’re communicative and responsible and we have no doubt Chexmix had a great time. Would use again in a heartbeat”


“Rose is an incredible sitter! Poppy was with her for a weekend and was so well cared for— we received so many pictures and constant communication which was amazing! Book with Rose!”


About: I've always had dogs in my life, and I think they deserve to be treated with love, patience & spoiled too! I'm comfortable with teacup-sized to the biggest dogs. I have a lab named Penne who loves to welcome new friends into our home! I work from home, so I have plenty of time to give pups all the love they need during their stay. I usually walk Penne 3x a day in Deering Oaks & let her run around the fenced-in yard if the weather is nice. For puppies I can do more-frequent runs! I am generous with treats, happy to have pets on furniture, and love to give pups love. I understand the concern with leaving your pup behind during work or a trip all too well, so I'm happy to give regular updates & pictures!

“Another great stay with Anne! We decided to start calling it “going to Annie camp” because Thorin has sooooo much fun playing with both familiar and new friends when he stays there. Anne is the greatest and we love her!”


“Jay was a perfect host. Incredibly kind and welcoming. He was alert to what my dog needed and sent thorough and thoughtful updates while I was away. On my return, my dog had clearly connected with him after 24 hours and was totally at ease in this unfamiliar space. Beyond what I had hoped for. Will for sure connect with him again if I need a pet-sitter in the Portland area.”



“Kris took great care of my dog while I was away for the weekend. She was sensitive to all of her particular needs, habits and routine, snuggled with her on the couch, let her sleep in the bed with her and treated her as if she was her own while I was away. She gave great, personal and personalized care and attention and put my mind at ease that I knew my dog was being well looked after and taken care of.”


“Rachel was wonderful. Lots of updates and pictures which really put my mind at ease as an anxious dog mom! She made sure to ask lots of questions to make sure she knew how to care for him as I would. He came back happy but tired from all the walks! Would definitely book Rachel again 😊”


About: I'm dedicated to your dog's well-being and offer genuine love, playful engagement, and a safe home and environment to ensure a stress-free experience. I have been a dog owner my entire life and I know how to read the body language of dogs. I nurture trust so that your dog is as happy here as s/he is in your home. We have two rescue dogs here in the home, Phoebe and Canela. Phoebe has been with us since she was a tiny chiweenie puppy six years ago, and Canela is a two year old sweetheart that was starving/living on the streets in Oaxaca, Mexico. Little did I know when I fell in love with her that the only way to get her home was to have her driven here in February! I am a writer and have a small gardening & vintage business which allows me to be at home close to full-time. Because I have a fenced in yard, I leave the door to my back porch open and our dogs go in and out of the home as they wish. I am here to monitor them, of course! I have a big fenced yard and two dogs that love to play and go for walks on the Greenbelt which is across the street. When they are inside, they sleep like queens on the couch or bed. Their favorite activity when they are not playing is to stare out the front window from the bed and bark at all the dogs that dare walk by our home.

“Alicia has had pets her entire life, and all of them lived long, happy, and healthy lives. She loves all dogs, and pats attention to what they like/listen to take care of them the way they are used to. She has dog sit for friends, and I can personally say she takes great care of our dog, Penne. She is constantly going above and beyond for her, and blows me out of the water consistently in exercising her, training her, or just generally making her feel happy and safe.”

Taika B.
“Taika is a kind and loving doggy mom with countless years of pet care experience. Her pups are family members and are the focus of Taika'a day. When they are not playing in the fenced in garden, you can find them at the beach or relaxing on a sofa inside. I trust Taika with my fur babies completely.”
