House Sitting in Valley Street, Portland, ME

“Madeleine was a wonderful sitter for my little pup! Rusty really liked her right from their first meeting. She stayed at my house which was perfect because Rusty is used to someone being home all the time. When I returned, the house was exactly the way I left it. I would highly recommend Madeleine for per/house sitting!”

“Kendra did a wonderful job of taking care of our two dogs. She was great at exercising and playing with our energetic 2 year old Great Dane while also giving our 13 year old dog a lot of attention as well. She took really good care of our home while she stayed with the dogs and communicated with us during the weekend. I would definitely recommend her!”

“Sergey was terrific! He came by to meet our dog before the pet sitting appointment and was very patient and caring. He was on time and dependable. If we visit Portland again we will definitely ask for him to pet sit our dog again.”

“Jamie was a fantastic sitter for my dog Oscar. She will be my go to from this point forward. She was communicative from the point of inquiry through until the end of the booking. She sent regular updates with photos and was happy to respond to any inquiries in between updates. She was respectful of our home and I came back to a well exercised and relaxed pup! It is difficult to trust someone with your animal but Jamie definitely has both mine and Oscars! We can't wait to use her services again!”

“Jay stayed with my dog Lucy while I went on a business trip across the country and she was so wonderful with my sweet old girl. She was very curious about Lucy’s needs and communicated with me and shared some pictures along the way. I came home to a happy dog and I’m so grateful to Jay for taking such good care of her!”

About: I bring a high level of experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’m comfortable handling everything from structured walks and feeding schedules to medications and special care needs. My goal is always the same: dependable care, clear communication, and a happy, well-cared-for dog. Working from home allows me to offer flexible scheduling and near constant supervision, ensuring that your dog receives attentive, reliable care and plenty of interaction. I prioritize safety, consistency, and a calm environment in every aspect of care. I closely follow each dog’s routine, including feeding instructions, walk preferences, and any special needs. My home is clean, dog safe, and supervised throughout the day, and when caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the same level of attentiveness. I always use secure leashes, monitor interactions carefully, and communicate regularly with updates for peace of mind.

“Savannah was awesome and we would love to have her again! We felt at ease knowing our fur babes were being well taken care of, highly recommend.”

“Our boys had another awesome stay with Viva!!! She takes such wonderful care of them at our home and always sends plenty of updates and pictures! Thank you!”

About: I have been working with cats and dogs professionally for over 15 years, including as a full time walker and sitter, as a daycare group leader, as management for a dog walking company, and as a kennel attendant in 4 different boarding facilities. I have managed groups of dogs and been tasked with training new employees on dog body language, aggression, and group play safety. I have worked with aggressive dogs, fearful dogs, reactive dogs, as well as puppies, seniors, and dogs with disabilities. Animals are my life and I wouldn't want to be doing anything else! I am a full time dog walker and sitter, so all days of the week are available and I am open for the holidays. Send me a message and we will go from there! I will leave your home exactly as I found it or better, I always plan to take out the trash on the last day of a pet sitting job and I will follow your instructions carefully about waste bags and house rules. I understand I am a guest in your space and I always take that seriously!

“Bret accepted our short notice booking and stopped by for a meet & greet before we headed out for a weekend trip, which was great. Our pets are currently pretty low maintenance but it was important for us to have someone stay the weekend while we had some R&R. We’d have Bret back on a future vacation.”

“I would recommend Amy for your house and pet sitting needs. Amy house sat for us over a long weekend and took care of our dogs, cats, and fish. She followed our instructions and was very communicative. Everything was in order when we returned and pets were happy. Thanks, Amy!”

About: I've spent all 20 years of my life around animals of all kind, but I have always had a special connection with dogs. It's hard being away from my family puppy, Milo, as I'm at college, so Rover allows me to get my dog time in while also helping those who need extra help with their furry family members. I have good experience with training and exercising, but I also do love a good rest and chill day. Whatever your pup needs, I can accommodate. I am most frequently available on weekends; almost every single weekend I am free to devote the day to you and your dog's needs. That being said, I can always make time every single day of the week. Each pup requires a different kind of care. Whether it's a long walk, stimulating games like hide and seek, fundamental training, or just somebody to relax with at home, I will be my my goal and my honor to fulfill your pets needs at the highest of my capabilities; and to have fun doing so!

“Jeanelle took great care of our girl Gretchen while we were out of town for a few days. Very communicative with us and attentive to our pup. Highly recommend!”

“Yiran took great care of our dog Trudy! She sent us lots of updates, asked questions as needed, and we could trust that Trudy was in good hands with her.”
