“Emily is awesome!! She took very good care of our Skipper. She was very responsive and on time. She sent us updates and pictures which we appreciated. We highly recommend Emily and will hire her for our future dog sitting needs.”

“Frani is so wonderful with my little maltipoo Cali. Cali has never had anyone walk her except me, and Frani helped make the transition of having a dog walker a few times a week a breeze! Cali loves her, and they have a great time walking and sniffing around the neighborhood and dog park. Frani is reliable, on time, communicative, friendly, and a really nice person. I highly recommend Frani!”

About: I have over 20 years experience taking care of dogs (and cats and chickens and hamsters etc) I moved to Lewiston to start a small farm and care for animals. I have 5 acres to walk our furry friends on and two separate large fenced in areas for dogs to play. We have a 2 year old husky mix who loves to play with other dogs. I work from home and have plenty of time to take care of animals, whether it be frequently letting them out or giving medication at certain times, I can make it happen! Our pets are our family and we treat them as such. I provide a lot of love and attention, and know how to show your pet respect.
About: I’ve taken Care of animals for about 20 years now. I’ve been dog sitting for 7 years privately for my neighbor and her two dogs. I love all animals and tend to spoil them rotten! We just love snuggling and playing with animals. Just let me know when, where and how often! Im available before during and after work. Message me and we can make a plan! Thanks! I’ve been taking care of my neighbors dogs at her home for about 7 years now. One of her dogs is special needs as well. I do as she tells me. My home is no different.

About: About Me Hi! I'm a friendly and reliable dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I've looked after my mother-in-law's dog many times and was the regular sitter for my roommate’s pup. I also cared for three medium-sized dogs for a co-worker, including a 3-night stay, making sure they were well-fed, walked, and happy the entire time. I get along with dogs naturally and always treat them like part of the family. Whether your pup needs playtime, cuddles, or calm companionship, I’m here to help. I look forward to meeting your furry friend and giving them the best care while you're away! Why Choose Me ✅ Experienced with multiple dogs ✅ Calm, loving, and responsible ✅ Flexible schedule ✅ Great with all breeds and energy levels Let’s chat about your dog’s needs — I can’t wait to meet them!

About: Hey guys! I'm just a Midwest girl living in my Midwest world! I have the typical Veteran husband and one of our three kids still living at home! We have a 7 pound Chihuahua and two kittens who are the current rulers of the home. I bring a professional, hands-on background to every dog I care for, shaped by my experience, work in the military and training dogs across a wide range of needs. From guiding young puppies through early obedience and socialization to reinforcing structure and confidence in adult dogs, I focus on calm, consistent, and respectful handling. My approach blends proven training principles with genuine affection—clear communication, routine, and trust, paired with plenty of attention and care. On our private 20-acre property, dogs have the space to decompress, explore safely, and enjoy a peaceful environment while still receiving individualized guidance and close supervision. While we do have 20 acres that we can walk through we also have a fenced in area and GPS Fence collars for your dog to use. Depending on the training your dog has been through we can work with you to see what fits best. I am a full time mom who homeschools her kid. My husband is home part time so most of the time we are home if not pup will be crated. I have a fenced in yard and a pet safe GPS collar for the pups. So no matter what the pup will be secured. There is no gate to leave the fenced in area so to leave you have to go through the house.
About: I have cared for all ages of dogs and cats. I work at a boarding kennel/ daycare and am used to cues in play when it comes to dogs. I have cleaned up after all of the messes with no issues, and can bath if needed and the animal allows it (extra fee). I can administer medications in all varieties and can comfortably handle shy and reactive dogs. I have leash walked dogs that have recently had acl repairs and can lift over 50 lbs if needed. I work 4 days at my current job from 8-5. I have three days off and can work with you as needed. I have my own car and can travel within reason. I have a fenced in backyard and space to put kennels while your dog rests. I have a three year old Australian shepherd who absolutely loves other dogs. (Shy to people). I have a gate to put up so your dog could have free rein of the living room in the evening and a camera to be able to check in on them.
