Doggy Day Care in Southport

“My very anxious senior dog and my crazy 1 year old who never leave the house stayed with Natalie for the day while my family and I took a day trip. We had so many concerns”

“Alissa is so wonderful. We have been lucky enough to book with her both for Thanksgiving and Christmas Day since our house is very chaotic with company on those days. We know Molly is in great hands getting lots of cuddles and time outside!”

About: I have years of experience with caring for animals and love them all dearly! I am caring, patient, and understanding. I have a home with a very large back yard in a country setting, with plenty of space to play and find a good potty spot! I am willing to give baths, go for walks, host your pet at my own home, or care for your pet at your own home. I would love to get the chance to get to know you and your fur babies, please contact me if you are interested in any of my services. Thank you! I am currently going to school online, this makes my schedule very flexible for caring for your fur babies and their needs! I have open availability currently! I have 3 small friendly chihuahuas and a cat, they can be kept on a seperate floor if needed for comfortability, but they have never had trouble getting along with other pets!

“I reached out to Lindsay about 2 months ago hoping to try my two dogs in her care and requested they had time outside, exposure to children and animals, and that they were kept safe. Lindsay has always gone above and beyond, my dogs are excited to get in the car and go to daycare and I’m always provided photos at the end of the day. My puppy has gotten to make other puppy friends and is able to play with her children. Lindsay is always on top of medications and is very flexible to my complex work schedule. She is by far more than I could’ve ever asked for.”

“I found Tyler to be a very responsible dog owner who truly enjoys caring for dogs of all sizes. He is very compassionate, patient and understanding when it comes to ensuring your dog has a safe and fun filled day. Tyler and his dog Clarence treated my Great Dane puppy just like family. My puppy absolutely adores both of them tremendously!! I would highly recommend Tyler for your dog sitting needs. He goes above and beyond!”

About: *Recently moved to Yarmouth, Maine and back on Rover - accepting new clients* 🐾 🐾 Rates 🐾 🐾 I am happy to travel but may need to add a mileage fee for bookings outside of my 15 minute radius. All rates are negotiable. *Boarding: I only host 1 family's pets at a time. This provides a safer environment for your pet and an "at home" feel with plenty of attention, especially for reactive or aging dogs. I don't use crates or kennels but if you want to bring yours along that is fine, I also have 1 medium sized crate on hand if needed. I have a very clean home and welcome pets to feel comfortable if they would like to snooze on the sofas, bed, and we have a secure fenced in yard, but I do not leave dogs unattended in the yard. I usually take my dog to the local dog parks and nature trails and would bring yours along too. 🐾 🐾 Basic Info 🐾 🐾 I am an EMT, certified in Pet CPR + First Aid. For the past 25 years, I have been an animal caretaker. My favorite part is getting to know all of the different breeds and personalities. Your pets will be treated with love, and be as comfortable in my home as yours. I always send lots of photos at the end of each day. 🐾 🐾 My daily schedule 🐾 🐾 I work from home as a university professor. My position is remote, so I am able to work anywhere with a wifi connection. I work for rover occasionally and my schedule is typically super organized and flexible. We do at least 2 active hours per day- and we try to squeeze in as many hikes as possible. My boyfriend is also very helpful with the dogs- if they are up for it, he will take them jogging every night.

About: ***New Note on Profile*** I recently welcomed a new addition to my family, an Austrailian Shepard puppy named Sapphire 🤗 she was born May 12th 2024. With her being my new best friend & fur baby, I am most interested in entertaining clients and bookings where she is welcome to come along with me. If this is not possible for you or your pets & home, please skip requesting me and pursue another sitter. Thank you! About me: I have been actively building my pet sitting network of beloved clients (2 legged & 4 legged) since 2020. These past 4+ years sparked the beginning of a dream come true I didn’t even know I had. From all the positive experiences, connections, and adventure I’ve had with animals during this time in my home state of Maine, the future is looking bright as my network and experience grows. My favorite part of this all by far is the growing connections and continuing relationships between me and my favorite pets and their owners. From weekly repeat dog walks to being families go to for overnights in their home or mine, I really love deepening connections with returning clients as well as meeting and forming special loving connections with new pets and their people as well! And, of course, the adventures, snuggles, hugs, kisses, toys, and treats make it all the more fun. 😊 As a person with a background in holistic energy work and the healing arts - yoga, reiki, herbalism, permaculture- I have a strong connection with the heart & soul of each animal, plant, person, and all of Nature. When it comes to pets, I recognize they are our allies and best friends, as well as often times our healers, teachers, and of course our beloved family. Since I was born and throughout my childhood into adulthood I have always had multiple pets in my home at any given time so I always love and am most comfortable with animals with me and around me. As an animal and plant person by Nature, I “speak their language” and make it a priority and joy to tune in with their needs whether just being together sharing space or enjoying exploring life together. When at home (mine or yours) I am quiet, peaceful, tidy and neat. I believe that being a strong loving presence wherever we are and improving the spaces we visit to leave them better than we I found it is one of our greatest purposes in Life. Your pets and home will be very well taken care of, at ease, and loved with me by the grace of God. I have somewhat of a green thumb (I have been studying, learning, and practicing year by year) and am an aspiring herb & food grower, forager, folk herbalist, and novice yet passionate baker. So, your plants and gardens can also be well cared for by me with your instructions. I have some homestead and farm experience - horses, chickens, goats, gardens, and am willing to learn other livestock care as well. I also have also had experience caring for reptilian pets in the past and am open to snakes, birds, lizards, rodents, fish, you name it. If we agree it’s a good match and I’m taking care of your home, just tell me what you want & need taken care of and I’ll do whatever I can to make sure you come home to a happy and comfortable home, almost like you never left! Rover is fun for me because you never know who you’re going to meet! I am open to all kind and loving humans and animals. As long as you have good virtues, love life and all around you to the fullest, I’m sure it will be a good match and it will be an honor to support each other. I currently am nearly full time pet sitting and also work part time as a rental property manager. On any given day I can be found taking dogs on adventures in the midcoast area peppered in with other responsibilities for my property management job. When pet sitting in your home for your animal(s) I am typically available to accommodate your pet’s normal schedule, to spend time with them, drop in throughout the day for visits, or bring them along with me on adventures with other dogs throughout the day. I prefer bookings where your pets can be left home unattended for 2-4 hour increments to accommodate my part time work schedule. In your home I will follow your instructions and duplicate however you care for your pet & home with the utmost care & respect. You tell me! I love going on walks, hikes, beach or dog park adventures, playing ball, frisbee, doing doggie playdates or custom adventures. I am as adventurous or relaxed as your pet needs me to be. Does your dog loves a walk on the beach or a fun hike? I know a spot! Jump in, let’s go! But if they’d rather stay home, take short strolls, play in the yard, and snuggle that’s great too. 😊

“Elizabeth amazing! Lots of pictures and great communication. You can tell she really loves caring for doggos and treated my little guy like he was her own. Pretty sure my dog was little sad to have to come back home to me. Ha! Will be using her again!”

“Jaclyn is amazing! Sable went for daycare with the plan to get her comfortable for future boarding and it's great. Her home setting allows Sable to socialize but still get individualized attention.”

Megan M.

“Molly is so sweet and kind it made leaving our baby a little easier. She was so understanding with our timeline changes and open to do whatever we need. She sent pictures and let me ask a million questions and it was peace of mind. I would 10/10 recommend Molly!!”

About: It’s my mission to provide the BEST care for your dog(s). I have always had a dog in my family and grew up learning how to properly care for my black lab and golden doodle! I have lots of experience taking care of my own dogs as well as volunteering at an animal refuge league called the ARLGP for both dogs and cats. I know how to care for younger dogs and older dogs, my golden is currently 13 years old. Currently accepting clients in Maine and Mass. I love taking care of dogs! I walk my dogs every morning and evening giving them walks in nature. I am home for college, so my schedule is completely open for the time being! I care for my dogs by taking them on two daily long walks, giving them food twice a day, refilling their water, letting them outside frequently to go to the bathroom, picking up their poop on walks, brushing them, taking out ticks, and more! I am also knowledgable about what they can and cannot eat.

“I highly recommend Jessica to care for your dog. My dog Holly has broken out of her crate and is dealing with some anxiety lately and Jessica went out of her way to help comfort her and put my mind at ease. She asked detailed questions about how to care for Holly and sent pictures of Holly having fun and relaxing with Jessica and her family. She cared for Holly for several days and after the first day I knew Holly had found a perfect sitter. I will definitely be booking again with Jessica in the future!”

About: I have had dogs and cats most of my adult life. I truly love the bond between a pet and caregiver. I’m a true believer that pets are family and should be treated as such. I’m physically active and enjoy the outdoors. Experienced in basic care and needs of dogs and cats I work part time, and I am very flexible with my schedule. I would be open to overnights possibly depending on the length of time. I be would prefer to care for your pet in your home. I have a cat and it’s better for me to come to your home.

About: I have had pets my whole life, ranging from cats and dogs to birds and lizards. Ive always had an affinity for animals, especially dogs, and would do anything I could for them. I understand that everyone has there own way of training and caring for there lovely pet and I would be more than happy to work with an owner to provide custom care for each new friend. I currently have a job during the day, however I am generally done at 2 and would love to provide care any time I can! I live right between two parks and frequently go spend time outside, especially at the beach once all the dogs are allowed. I hope to be able to spend more time with your pet soon! Im currently looking to make pet care a big part of my life. I have a passion for gardening and art as well, however Ive always connected so easily with pets and would love to make it a career I have a small house so the majority of the time with a dog would be spent outside playing. I have a nice little yard and live close to an awesome dog park and many lovely walking areas

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I am sensitive to animals' needs and unique personalities. I'm just as happy playing and romping as hanging out while they sniff and explore on their own. I am currently in between jobs, so I have a very flexible schedule. I'm easy to reach and have good communication skills. I am available most days during the day. I'm looking forward to coming to you to care for your pet, whether it's for a walk or just a bathroom break and some playtime inside. If you have a fenced in yard, I'm happy to play with your dog off leash too.
