“My little Saga was a happy camper at Cindy’s during her very first time away from family, during an extended holiday stay. Saga seems to have adapted well, and befriended other dogs during her stay, which I got a glimpse of from the photos Cindy shared. Saga came home clean (Cindy gave her a bath the day before our reunion) and a little baggie of holiday treats. Thanks so much for taking such good care of Saga.”
“Rebecca was amazing! We had so many issues with our transportation and ended up having to drop-off and pick-up and different times. She was so understanding and flexible. Our dog Pepper can be very stressed and particular when we are apart, but she had such a great time with Rebecca! Would 100% book again next time we are in Maine!”
“Kyle and Mariah were fantastic caretakers for Lobo for the past week! Got photo updates multiple times per day, and it's clear that he had a TON of engagement and activity - he put himself to bed when we got home 😂. Highly recommend!!”
“Audrey did a wonderful job with our 8 month pit bull Pumkin. Pumpkin came home happy and exhausted from the adventures that Audrey took him on. She provided Pumpkin with a great time and me with peace of mind that his high energy, not quite 100% potty-trained, rough playing properties were understood and not a problem. I highly recommend Audrey!”
“Jessica is fantastic. She was so good with our two pups for an overnight stay! She sent the best pictures, played with our pups with her children, and gave them a great place to stay for the night. Would highly recommend Jessica; and we will definitely not hesitate to send our dogs to her again!”
“Heidi took great care of our puppy while away. She was always responsive when we wanted to check in on our dog and provided pictures! When we had our flight canceled, she was happy to care for our dog another day without hesitation! Dogs get plenty of dog interaction here!”
“Amazing family with great kids who love animals! We are well updated with photos for our dog. Cassidy gave great assurance on the 2D1N boarding. Already arranged for the next boarding period!”
“We could not ask for a better dog sitter for our good boy! Elisabeth is truly a little dog whisperer—so caring, patient, and incredibly attentive to every detail. From the moment I met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs and understands their individual personalities and needs. She keeps us updated with lots of adorable photos and makes sure our dog felt completely at home, relaxed, and loved. The fun adventures she took them on made it feel like a real doggy vacation, not just a stay. Our dog comes home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It gives us total peace of mind to know our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We will 100% continue to book with Elisabeth again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter! 🐾💛”
“Christina did a great job with Crosby. I trusted that he was well cared for and got lots of love and attention. Normally a very stressed out dog, he seemed very relaxed when I picked him up. We'll definitely use her again in the future.”
“Stacy's home was ideal for Olli. As much as Olli enjoyed being there with her pups and her family, Stacy equally enjoyed caring for our dog. She took him on to the trails, in her car on errands, and was flexible and accommodating to his roaming to various sleeping spots. We are visiting Maine for a few months and Stacy was a great find. Getting to her home in Raymond from Portland was a direct 30 minute trip.”
“We feel like our pup is staying with his extended family when he’s with Marna. He pushes right into her house and doesn’t give us another thought, he’s so happy there. ❤️”
“Anne is the best! This is our second time booking here and she's so warm and flexible and truly loves dogs. Knowing my boy was in such good hands made my vacation actually relaxing. She sent pics and videos through out. I can't recommend enthusiastically enough.”
“Our dog loves to visit Kimberly! Our dog is always very relaxed, happy, and has obviously been well taken care of every time we pick her up. Kimberly has been very accommodating to our schedule. We highly recommend her.”
“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”
“Claudia and Jason are truly amazing dog sitters. They took excellent care of our large Aussiedoodle , who never likes to be separated from me. They took him on many varied walks and on one of them even got him a pup ice cream, had cuddle time, time for play and rest. He returned home calm, confident and tired. I fully trust Claudia and Jason and am so grateful to them.”
About: Hi, I'm Kaitlin! I've been caring for pets for 20+ years, for both my own pets and others. I currently have three dog-savvy indoor cats, 2 “house dogs”, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I have children in my home (ages range from 16 – 4) who have all grown up with both cats and dogs and are well versed in respecting their personal space. I offer drop-ins to provide potty breaks, mid-day walks, house sitting for your cats, dog boarding in my home, and doggy daycare services. I work from home for the majority of the week, so my home offers constant companionship for those needing some support during the day or while their people are away. A few things that set my care apart: - Experience with crate training/trained dogs. I can offer support in that field if it is something you are working on with your dog. - While I do not currently have a fenced-in yard, I do live on a private dead-end road in a quiet neighborhood. We do not have heavy traffic and can walk for as long as necessary to tucker your pup out. - Daily photos of your pet for check-in purposes, or if they’re just being cute. - Experience with puppies and young dogs, as well as older dogs who may prefer a quieter environment. My home office space provides a calm space to spend the day with me individually. - Competitive rates and flexible scheduling. - Bonus: I also have experience with chickens and freshwater aquariums and can accommodate check-in visits to refresh water and feed as long as instructions are provided. Your pet will always feel loved, safe, and comfortable while in my care. My husband and I both currently work from home Monday through Friday and can provide constant supervision and attention to our guests. If your pet prefers a quiet environment as opposed to the hustle and bustle of family life, we do have the ability to provide quieter settings. As mentioned above, if your pet requires a crate to feel safe and secure, we have the experience and space to accommodate that. I do require that for overnight bookings, if your dog is crate trained, that you bring their crate with them. I love taking photos of my own pets, so if that offers peace of mind to our guests, I am more than happy to oblige. A meet and greet before a booking is preferred to ensure our dogs can get along. My dogs are both neutered/spayed and have not had any experiences with aggression towards other dogs. They do get excited, but quickly calm down once the initial introduction is over. Our dogs are not left unattended/uncrated with guests unless absolutely necessary. If we needed to leave the house quickly for whatever reason, you would be notified and your dog would come with us to remain under our supervision at all times. In-home visits and/or care- I am careful and aware of not letting pets outdoors unless explicitly told to do so. I have indoor only cats so I understand how important it is to check the cracks for sneaky paws and noses before opening doors. I will not wander around the home; it is strictly in to fill water and food, clean litter boxes, and spend a little time sitting on the kitchen floor to offer attention and pets (when the animal permits it). Your space is private and personal, and I am honored to have your trust in caring for your pets and your home.

About: I was raised with cats, and can't imagine the farm I grew up on without them. I've sat for a range of kitties of all ages and personalities. I would love to snuggle with a kitty, but am also respectful of non-cuddly friends. I'm the person who talks to animals before people when I enter a home... My cat/fur-sibling is named Sirius Black because she is so dog-like.
About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and I truly enjoy getting to know each one's unique personality. Whether your cat is outgoing and playful or prefers their own space, I'm happy to care for them in a way that makes them feel comfortable and safe. For the past two years, I worked for a luxury pet sitting company in Washington, D.C., caring for cats with a wide variety of personalities and needs. From energetic kittens to senior cats who needed extra patience and medical care, I've learned that every cat has their own routine, preferences, and way of building trust—and I always respect that. As someone who works in the medical field, I'm comfortable administering oral medications, insulin injections, eye drops, and ear medications when needed. I understand that some cats require a little extra care, and I'm committed to making sure they receive it with patience and compassion. Communication is incredibly important to me because I know how much peace of mind it brings when you're away from your pet. After every visit, I'll send detailed updates and plenty of photos so you know exactly how your cat is doing, whether they're curled up in their favorite sunny spot, playing with their favorite toy, or busy supervising me while I scoop the litter box! I also know that caring for your home is part of caring for your pet. I'm happy to bring in mail and packages, water plants, refresh food and water, keep litter areas clean, and make sure everything is just as you left it. Whether your cat loves to play, enjoys quiet company, or simply appreciates someone who respects their space, I'll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible so you can relax knowing they're in loving, capable hands. I can't wait to meet you and your feline family!
“Lindsey was excellent. She was extremely dependable and took such good care of our cat. Her daily reports and photos made me smile every day. I will certainly use her services again the next time we go out of town. She’s great!”
“I could not be happier with Cheyanne’s loving care of Leo the cat. He clearly took to her right away, which is impressive, as he usually takes a while. In addition to taking care of his needs, she spent time hanging out with him, playing, brushing, etc. It’s obvious that she has a real way with animals and loves caring for them. So glad to have found her!”
“Bella took such amazing care of my Higgins like she was one of her own! She was extremely respectful of our home and all our wishes while we were away. I would have Bella back in a heartbeat in the future!!”
“We’d give 10 stars if we could! Stacy was so professional, quick to respond to our inquiries (this was our first experience with Rover), communicative while we were away, and most importantly so attentive to our old man’s needs and well-being. She went the extra mile in keeping his room “tidy” as well. We feel lucky to have found her!”
“This was the first time I have been away from my pets for an extended period of time. Nicole was great, very reassuring, and I was so thrilled to see her daily pictures. Even it was me. My cat was hissing at her.🤣 I highly recommend her for pet sitting”
About: I’m Cody! I grew up with 3 dogs, and I worked at a dog daycare for over a year. I’ve done on and off pet-sitting and walking through craigslist and friends over the years as well. I have 2 cats and a rabbit at home, so I’m good with all different types of animals. I can do pet sitting, check ins, and walks. I have a car with a large backseat so I could also transport your pet to a park or a preferred walking trail if you’d like. I am available weekday mornings before 8am and afternoons after 4pm. My weekends are completely open! Thank you for considering me to hang out with your pets and I hope to hear from you soon! Cody
“Martha did a great job of looking after my cat Osiris while I was away for the holidays. She sent daily pictures as requested for my peace of mind, reached out promptly when there were any issues, and was very understanding and accommodating when my planned pickup time got a bit wobbly due to travel issues. Will definitely be booking again the next time I need a sitter.”
“Zayn provided excellent care for both our home and our geriatric cat. Please note, we love our cat (recently adopted by us when the husband's parents needed to move into assisted living). Miss Puss has abandonment issues as well as food anxiety having been "adopted" more than once. Zayn handled her with care, sent texts and pictures, and left our home neat and tidy. I would certainly hire her again and recommend her to others who have cat(s) with special personalities.”
About: With 30 years of experience, previous dog training, your pup, senior, any age dog is in caring and attentive hands. I interact, play, talk and walk your pet. They have my attention 24/7 full time. I don't split my attention with work from home job so your loved one has literally 24/7 attention! Let's meet or chat and say HI ! I have a small dog of my own, a little whipper snapper Klee Kai who is a retired service dog. But he respects older dogs too. I am a good pet human to those I am caring for. Your dog has safe and spacious areas to play and there are walking/snowmobile trails very close by where I take longer walks 3-4 times a day weather permitting and depending on your dog's energy level . I have had hens, rabbits, dogs, birds, farm animals and plenty of other critters over the years so am very accustomed to caring for animals on a daily basis. I have dog training experience. Your dog must be house trained, spayed or neutered and know basic commands,be non aggressive and leash trained and have topical flea/tick treatment and be up to date on all vaccinations. Unless you direct, I don't put pets in a crate though I do have 2 available if you prefer I use it at night. Your pet is with me 24/7 so has company and supervision. I have a fully fenced area but it's NOT SUITABLE if your dog digs under fences or can jump a 4' fence! I live walking distance to really nice hiking/snow mobile trails. I keep dogs on a leash at all times except in my fenced area where they can stretch and for bathroom and play. I adjust my routine to your pet. This is my full time passion. I'm not a kid filling in time and do this because I absolutely love having your pup! I take your dog on multiple walks every day. If I am taking care of your pet in your home, they get the same attention while I'm at your home, though I do prefer boarding at my home. I require owners permission to transport your dog in my vehicle to the hiking trails since I won't cross any busier roads with any pet on a leash. It's safer to drive to them a few minutes away. Your pets are NEVER EVER left unattended and alone in my vehicle. Dogs must come clean (no bad or strong smells), food dishes, adequate food for the time they are with me, a favorite toy (though I have a full box of clean toys) and vet info in advance. PLEASE NOTE, DOGGY DAY CARE is any 8 hour period until 5:30 PM daily. Prefer 8:30 AM arrival but earlier is definitely possible too. After 8 hrs, it's an additional $10 hr. This site doesn't let me customize schedules with time frames. This is full time for me. Pick up/drop off is between 8:30AM - 5:30 PM but can be earlier or later with advance notice. Extended hours are available with prior notice and additional fee of $15 hr. Doggie day care is between 8:30AM- 5:30 PM (8 hrs per session between those hours. Day care is no more than 8 hrs for the flat daily rate. Overnight rates are 24 hrs and $15 hr will be added after 24 hrs I have a fenced yard which pets are free to be in unleashed. My front deck is gated so pets can be outside under cover. Back deck is also enclosed into the pet area and has a roof.
“Brianna was an amazing sitter for our cats! We received detailed reports each day of the time spent with our cats. We will absolutely be booking Brianna again based on professionalism and care for our cats.”

“We are so lucky to have found Rebecca! Our dog has a hard time being away from us, but when we get to Rebecca’s house, our dog walks right in with a wagging tail and doesn’t even look back! What a great, calm, and relaxing spot to be a dog.”
“Audrey watched our 3 month old puppy for the day and was absolutely wonderful! She sent us pictures and videos to show us how much fun he was having! He came home so happy and exhausted from all his playtime!! I would definitely recommend Audrey to anyone looking for a loving pet sitter in a safe home environment!”
“It was a pleasure to have our whippet puppy Fern cared for by Cassidy and Cody while on vacation in Cape May. Cassidy and Cody were so laid back, relaxed and flexible when it came times and days we needed care for Fern. Fern was nervous at first meeting and staying with new friends Gus, (their dog) and their 2 children, but she was wagging her tail and so excited to go back to their house the following day! Fern got extra walks, and even went to the beach with them! We felt very comfortable leaving our baby In their care! I also appreciated getting text and picture updates of how Fern was doing throughout the day. I would definitely reach out to Cody and Cassidy again for dog sitting when we are in the area.”
About: My entire life has always revolved around animals. As a lifelong equestrian, I’ve grown up taking care of horses and dogs of all shapes and sizes. Previously a barn manager, I’m now a pet & equine photographer. That means when I’m not at a horse show or photoshoot, I’m at my desk at home with my own two senior dogs curled underneath. My years in the horse world and now with senior dogs has taught me how to apply topical medication, give injections and oral meds, and how to recognize and redirect problematic behavior. Living on 15 wooded acres set back from the road means there is plenty of space for pups to run around as well as numerous off leash walking trails should your pup be up for it. Staying with me is like a country retreat for your pet - walks through the forest and sunsets and squirrel watching from the deck. If you're lucky, you might even get some professional photos out of it. As a self-employed pet photographer, I work from home when I’m not at a horse show or photo shoot. This gives me lots of flexibility day to day and during the day. I like to let dogs approach me as they feel comfortable and understand that dogs are capable of a wide range of personalities. My number one priority is that everyone feels safe and has their needs met. In my home, well behaved and responsive dogs may be allowed off-leash outside as we have plenty of space far from the nearest road. Dogs that can’t be trusted off leash will enjoy wooded walks around the property or nearby dog-friendly trails.
“Jennifer was outstanding! She immediately put both me and my dog at ease. I absolutely would encourage folks to consider using her for their pet care needs. Great communication and a nice spotless environment.”
“i would definitely book simon again! he was lovely and very accommodating. he gave a thorough report when i picked up my pet who came home calm and taken care of. i was also impressed by his own lovely, and nicely trained dog. that says a lot!”

“Absolutely wonderful pet sitter. Marna was calm and patient with our little chihuahua, Miika. Miika was happy and relaxed when she was picked up. I highly recommend Marna and will definitely be using her services again.”
“Marcie was very helpful. We traveled from out of state and last minute needed someone to watch our dog so we could attend our son’s graduation. Marcie was very flexible. Our dog seemed happy (not stressed) when we picked him up. She was easy to work with!”
“Eliot was very good to my pup! She took her on several walks throughout the day, sent me photo updates and I’m just so thrilled she got social time with other doggos. She is in a deep slumber!”
“Chelsea took such great care of our pup. We reached out to her last minute and she was available and eager to help us with our dog. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely reach out to her. Thanks again, Chelsea!!”
About: I love animals and will take extra special care of them. I can provide a safe and loving environment for your precious pets. I’m new on rover but have extensive experience with pet care in the state of Maine and Florida. I look forward to offering services here in Windham I took an early retirement so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I like to stay busy and find pet care very rewarding. I could do drop in for walks and play time or overnights in my home. I love having pets around and feel that I can provide a safe area.
About: I’m a reliable Portland dog walker with 20+ years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I genuinely enjoy working with dogs and building trust with each one, and I’m patient and calm with dogs that need a little extra time or attention. I provide safe, fun, and structured walks and am very comfortable handling multiple dogs while making sure each one gets the attention they need. My goal is always to keep your dog happy, exercised, and safe. You’ll receive updates and photos after every walk so you know exactly how things went. I’d love to meet your dog! I have a fully flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day to walk, feed, and spend quality time with pets, adjusting my hours to meet their needs. I’m passionate about caring for dogs and can dedicate the time needed to keep them happy, safe, and loved!

We take daily walks on the local trails, and visiting dogs are welcome on the furniture. When it comes to bed time, we have cozy beds in every room. I have one younger child who is great with dogs so there will be lots of love going around for your pet!
“Lindsay is fantastic. She has been a lifesaver with our new pup. He always comes home happy and tired, and Lindsay always gives great updates so I know exactly how our pup has been throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend her more.”
About: I love animals and getting to meet new four legged friends. I have lots of experience dog sitting and walking friends' dogs over the years. I have been a dog mom to two rescue dogs and worked diligently on their training. Rupert is my fur baby at the moment and he's a very well socialized adventure partner. Dog training is an interest of mine and I'd be happy to work with your dog on any skills or behaviors while they stay with us. I have also volunteered at multiple animal shelters over the years, making sure all the animals get attention and walks. I'm currently a stay at home Mom to a toddler which allowd me to be attentive to your pets' needs throughout the day. Your dog will have human and dog company throughout the day. I enjoy going on hikes and walks so I can make sure your dog gets enough exercise everyday. I currently have a friendly 6 y/o mutt who loves having another dog to play with too.
“Briana accepted our Daisy on short notice and on a holiday weekend. Daisy had such a good day that I don't think she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up! I would highly recommend her services.”

About: Who's a good dog? All of them. My step-dog is the love of my life, and I'm the person who talks to animals more than humans at a party. I have experience with: Dogs, cats, fish, rodents, horses, chickens, other birds, reptiles, and more. As a former field biologist, I handled a wide variety of animals and completed Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) training. I'm open to caring for almost any critter. Send me a message so we can discuss what your critter needs. New-ish to Rover. Previously, all my clients were by word of mouth in extreme southern Maine and New Hampshire. We recently moved, and I decided it was time to join Rover. My schedule is variable, so just message me so we can discuss what your critter needs. This summer I have lots of availability. Thank you! I am currently not taking client's pets into my own home. I am open to a variety of conditions for home visits/walks/play dates/check-ins. Just send me a message so we can discuss your set up and what your critter needs.
“Stacy is wonderful with my pets. She is patient and works well with my schedule. Stacy is an excellent communicator and follows through with the daily routine. I highly recommend her!”
“Already booked follow up walks! We had reached out to a few people to see about getting Brinkley a regular Saturday walker. One of my top choices messaged back and said she was out of town for a couple weeks but Riley was staying at her place and could pick up the ones until she is back. Riley came by and hung out with us and Brinkley for 20-minutes before the walk! He is a shy boy who takes some time to warm up and she was so great with him. It was crazy cold that day and Riley had zero hesitation -- and she was engaged every second... even longer than she needed to! We've had a couple of bad walker experiences as of late (either ignoring our one non-negotiable rule which almost ended in tragedy or taking him to the park and sitting with him for long periods of time, so he didn't get any exercise), so Riley was a breath of fresh air! Brinkley did very well with her and came back as a tuckered out, super cuddly pup. Couldn't ask for anything more! I've already confirmed Riley for walks for the rest of the time she's in town.”
About: I've always had a love for animals, and being able to care for them is something I genuinely enjoy. As someone who works in the medical field, I understand the importance of trust, attention to detail, and treating every family member with compassion—including the four-legged ones! For the past two years, I worked for a luxury dog walking and pet sitting company in Washington, D.C., where I cared for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, personalities, and temperaments. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a shy rescue, a reactive dog, or a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience, I'm happy to meet them where they are. Every pet is different, and I love taking the time to earn their trust and learn what makes them feel comfortable. I'm also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs. Because of my background in the medical field, I feel confident administering oral medications, eye drops, and ear medications for both dogs and cats. If your pet has a special routine or requires extra attention, you can trust that they'll be in great hands. Communication is incredibly important to me. For each visit or stay, I'll send detailed updates and plenty of photos! My goal is for you to enjoy your time away without worrying. I also have experience walking up to five dogs at once and am comfortable with everything from leash training to energetic pullers and leisurely senior strolls. No matter your pet's age, personality, or needs, I'll treat them with the same love, patience, and care that I would my own. If I'm staying in your home, I'll care for it with the same respect and attention that I would my own. I'm happy to bring in mail and packages, water plants, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure your home feels just as you left it. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet, a well-cared-for home, and complete peace of mind. I'm currently working part-time while completing my remaining prerequisite courses as I apply to Physician Assistant programs, which gives me a flexible schedule to accommodate your pet's needs. Whether your furry one needs regular walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or a little extra attention, I'm happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits. Clear communication is important to me, and I'll always be upfront about my availability so you can feel confident your pet is receiving the care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I know that pets are happiest when they can stay in a familiar environment, so I take the time to learn their daily schedule, favorite activities, feeding routine, and any special instructions before you leave. I am certified through Red Cross for Cat and Dog First Aid as well. Whether we're going on walks, playing fetch, enjoying cuddle time on the couch, or simply keeping each other company, I make sure every pet receives plenty of love, attention, exercise, and enrichment based on their individual needs. If your pet requires medications or extra care, I'm comfortable following detailed medical routines and will always keep you updated. I also believe caring for your pet means caring for your home. If I'm house sitting, I'll treat your home with the same respect I would my own by keeping it clean and tidy, bringing in mail and packages, watering plants, taking out the trash if needed, and making sure everything is secure while you're away. After each visit, I'll send detailed updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and in good hands. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet, a well-cared-for home, and complete peace of mind.
“Nicolette is the best! I used her as my regular dog walker during my long work shifts and would highly recommend her. She took great care of my dog, always taking him on great walks. She gives the best Rover report cards with great photos and excellent communication. I’m only in Maine for a short period of time, but will definitely use her again if we are ever back in town.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs big and small since I was 10 years old, as well as pet fish, hamsters, guinea pigs. I’ve always offered to help family friends neighbors take care of there’s as well wether it’s walking, bringing them on rides, feeding, bathing, or just giving lots of love to them while there owners are gone. I’ve also worked at a couple farms before so I have plenty of experience with all sorts of animals and a very big heart for every single one of them. I am working full time locally with Sundays and Mondays free! I have a big vehicle so if they are ok in the car I can bring them to the lake, for a walk on one of the local trails, or just for a ride on a nice day. I love spoiling my own pup so yours are gonna be spoiled just as much! Most dogs I’ve been around have been put in crates weather they were being trained as a puppy or can’t be left out in the house alone so I know how to handle that if needed at any time. I make sure there water bowls are ALWAYS full and when to feed them. I clean up there messes if needed and try to keep things tidy even if they just take everything out again. I give them lots of pets and attention and learn there attitudes and personality as well as I can so I know them better and they can trust me.
“Tonya did a great job of communicating with us , and treated Nala like her own. Book with her for a smooth and easy transition for your pet. We will definitely use her again !”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life from senior cats/dogs to kittens/puppies. I have three cats of my own and two family dogs. I treat every animal like I would my own. I’m currently on summer break from my paraprofessional position. With that, I have a lot of extra time on my hands that I would love to fill with sweet and adorable pets. I follow plans and instructions that have been provided to me meticulously and with great care. I unfortunately have two cats at home that are not fond of other pets staying over. Due to my cats preferences I will keep my cat at the clients home or outside.
About: I grew up on a farm where I was surrounded by large animals like cattle and horses, which gave me a deep appreciation for working with animals from a young age. My passion for animal care led me to become a veterinary technician, where I spent several years working in a large animal hospital. During this time, I gained extensive experience handling various animals, assisting in surgeries, administering medications, and providing routine care. I also have a 8 year-old German Shepherd named Nala. These experiences have strengthened my skills in animal health and care, and I truly enjoy working with animals of all sizes. Currently work part time so I have plenty of time for your pup/animal! I am very flexible and will do my best to accommodate yours and your animals needs Will love on your pet like my own ! It truly is fun to spend time with different animals and if I could have more than 1 dog I would personally!
About: Hello! I am a graduate student looking to give pups some love in my free time. My parents started their own dog daycare, lodging, grooming and training center that will be 15 years in business this summer. For over a decade I spent my school breaks and many weekends helping out will all things dogs so I have quite a bit of experience including training! I also have my own pup, Nova! I am in a full time graduate program so my availability may change week-to-week but I will be available for a few hours each weekend day at the very least! I have experience with dogs who like to pull a bit and/or like to try to chase birds so I am able to safely redirect and walk pups of all sizes and temperaments!
About: ☀️Visiting the lakes region for the summer? Enjoy your day on the boat or a nice dinner without worrying about your pet! ☀️ Hi! My name is Ashley, I'm a psychology student at the University of New England in Maine. I am a life long animal lover and I have a passion for dogs! I have extensive experiencing caring for and training my own dog to be a service dog as well as caring for family and friends dogs. I strive to create a safe, fun, and loving environment for every animal I meet. I am comfortable with shy or nervous dogs (non aggressive) who need a little bit more patience and attention. In addition, I understand that every dog's personality is different, so I take the time to understand their personality, to make sure they feel comfortable and loved while in my care. No matter the pet, I treat each of them like my own. I am very flexible depending on you and your dog's needs. I ensure that every visit is thoughtfully scheduled to ensure your pet gets my full attention. ***Please note, I am unable to accommodate pets in my home, drive pets, or care for pets overnight When your pup is with me, it’s all tail wags, wiggle butts, and adventures, but safety always comes first. That way you can relax knowing your best friend is in loving hands. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality, energy level, and quirks. Communication is key, I’ll keep you updated with pup report cards and lot's of photos. All I ask of you is that if your pet requires a specific routine to please put it in writing so I can follow it correctly!
About: I have grown up with pets all my life, starting at the age of 7. My family currently has three dogs (one small and two medium) that I care for regularly. I am able to walk the three on a lease comfortably and have played a large role in training them. Although I prefer dogs, I grew up with a cat that I loved and cared for. I am able to provide compassion and care to a variety of pet personalities. With years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I understand how important it is to find a sitter/ walker you can trust. Whether your pet needs playtime, a dependable routine or just company, I’m here to provide loving and reliable care. I am studying for a board exam and working part time. My part time job is flexible, allowing Sat, Sun,Mon, Wed and Fri to have open availability. I am more likely to commit to requests that are received a few days to a week prior. I care for pets in their home by meeting them where they are at; literally and personality wise. With three dogs of my own at home, I am unable to watch your pet outside of their home. In caring for your pet in their environment it helps reduce stress and attempt to maintain any form of routine they have. I am considerate of multiple personalities and consciously make an effort to accommodate the pets needs. With dogs I have watched in the past, I attempt to give them familiarity with their routine, within mine and their comfort. I walk familiar roads/paths, feed them on their schedule (if possible) and attain to any of their needs. I will use any devices/ equipment you typically use and will prioritize safety outside the home (using leases, collars, etc.).

“My little Saga was a happy camper at Cindy’s during her very first time away from family, during an extended holiday stay. Saga seems to have adapted well, and befriended other dogs during her stay, which I got a glimpse of from the photos Cindy shared. Saga came home clean (Cindy gave her a bath the day before our reunion) and a little baggie of holiday treats. Thanks so much for taking such good care of Saga.”
“Rebecca was amazing! We had so many issues with our transportation and ended up having to drop-off and pick-up and different times. She was so understanding and flexible. Our dog Pepper can be very stressed and particular when we are apart, but she had such a great time with Rebecca! Would 100% book again next time we are in Maine!”
“Kyle and Mariah were fantastic caretakers for Lobo for the past week! Got photo updates multiple times per day, and it's clear that he had a TON of engagement and activity - he put himself to bed when we got home 😂. Highly recommend!!”
“Audrey did a wonderful job with our 8 month pit bull Pumkin. Pumpkin came home happy and exhausted from the adventures that Audrey took him on. She provided Pumpkin with a great time and me with peace of mind that his high energy, not quite 100% potty-trained, rough playing properties were understood and not a problem. I highly recommend Audrey!”
“Heidi took great care of our puppy while away. She was always responsive when we wanted to check in on our dog and provided pictures! When we had our flight canceled, she was happy to care for our dog another day without hesitation! Dogs get plenty of dog interaction here!”
“Christina did a great job with Crosby. I trusted that he was well cared for and got lots of love and attention. Normally a very stressed out dog, he seemed very relaxed when I picked him up. We'll definitely use her again in the future.”
“Stacy's home was ideal for Olli. As much as Olli enjoyed being there with her pups and her family, Stacy equally enjoyed caring for our dog. She took him on to the trails, in her car on errands, and was flexible and accommodating to his roaming to various sleeping spots. We are visiting Maine for a few months and Stacy was a great find. Getting to her home in Raymond from Portland was a direct 30 minute trip.”
“We feel like our pup is staying with his extended family when he’s with Marna. He pushes right into her house and doesn’t give us another thought, he’s so happy there. ❤️”
“Anne is the best! This is our second time booking here and she's so warm and flexible and truly loves dogs. Knowing my boy was in such good hands made my vacation actually relaxing. She sent pics and videos through out. I can't recommend enthusiastically enough.”
“Our dog loves to visit Kimberly! Our dog is always very relaxed, happy, and has obviously been well taken care of every time we pick her up. Kimberly has been very accommodating to our schedule. We highly recommend her.”
“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”
“Claudia and Jason are truly amazing dog sitters. They took excellent care of our large Aussiedoodle , who never likes to be separated from me. They took him on many varied walks and on one of them even got him a pup ice cream, had cuddle time, time for play and rest. He returned home calm, confident and tired. I fully trust Claudia and Jason and am so grateful to them.”
About: Hi, I'm Kaitlin! I've been caring for pets for 20+ years, for both my own pets and others. I currently have three dog-savvy indoor cats, 2 “house dogs”, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I have children in my home (ages range from 16 – 4) who have all grown up with both cats and dogs and are well versed in respecting their personal space. I offer drop-ins to provide potty breaks, mid-day walks, house sitting for your cats, dog boarding in my home, and doggy daycare services. I work from home for the majority of the week, so my home offers constant companionship for those needing some support during the day or while their people are away. A few things that set my care apart: - Experience with crate training/trained dogs. I can offer support in that field if it is something you are working on with your dog. - While I do not currently have a fenced-in yard, I do live on a private dead-end road in a quiet neighborhood. We do not have heavy traffic and can walk for as long as necessary to tucker your pup out. - Daily photos of your pet for check-in purposes, or if they’re just being cute. - Experience with puppies and young dogs, as well as older dogs who may prefer a quieter environment. My home office space provides a calm space to spend the day with me individually. - Competitive rates and flexible scheduling. - Bonus: I also have experience with chickens and freshwater aquariums and can accommodate check-in visits to refresh water and feed as long as instructions are provided. Your pet will always feel loved, safe, and comfortable while in my care. My husband and I both currently work from home Monday through Friday and can provide constant supervision and attention to our guests. If your pet prefers a quiet environment as opposed to the hustle and bustle of family life, we do have the ability to provide quieter settings. As mentioned above, if your pet requires a crate to feel safe and secure, we have the experience and space to accommodate that. I do require that for overnight bookings, if your dog is crate trained, that you bring their crate with them. I love taking photos of my own pets, so if that offers peace of mind to our guests, I am more than happy to oblige. A meet and greet before a booking is preferred to ensure our dogs can get along. My dogs are both neutered/spayed and have not had any experiences with aggression towards other dogs. They do get excited, but quickly calm down once the initial introduction is over. Our dogs are not left unattended/uncrated with guests unless absolutely necessary. If we needed to leave the house quickly for whatever reason, you would be notified and your dog would come with us to remain under our supervision at all times. In-home visits and/or care- I am careful and aware of not letting pets outdoors unless explicitly told to do so. I have indoor only cats so I understand how important it is to check the cracks for sneaky paws and noses before opening doors. I will not wander around the home; it is strictly in to fill water and food, clean litter boxes, and spend a little time sitting on the kitchen floor to offer attention and pets (when the animal permits it). Your space is private and personal, and I am honored to have your trust in caring for your pets and your home.
“Martha did a great job of looking after my cat Osiris while I was away for the holidays. She sent daily pictures as requested for my peace of mind, reached out promptly when there were any issues, and was very understanding and accommodating when my planned pickup time got a bit wobbly due to travel issues. Will definitely be booking again the next time I need a sitter.”
“Kelly took Copper in and gave him 100% attention for the days I was gone. I am very very pleased with how she cared for him. I highly Recommend Kelly. Top of the line caring dog sitter.”
