“Destiny was exceptional! She took such great care of our dog and our home. She took extra care to make our nervous pup feel comfortable and safe. We’re so grateful and would definitely hire her again!”

“Sophia was flexible with my last-minute drop-in, and I appreciate the time she spent with my cat, who doesn't like to be alone. She was very friendly and made me feel comfortable letting her into my home. I would definitely hire her again!”

“I highly recommend John! He asked questions to clarify my dogs needs, sent regular updates and even shared photos. His attentiveness allowed me to enjoy my few days out of town without worrying about my 2 senior dogs.”

“Sergey was great! We hired him for house/dog sitting while we were away for a long weekend and he made it so easy for us. The dogs liked him, and he clearly gave them a lot of attention. When we came home the house was spotless. You would have had no idea someone had been staying there for 4 days. He was very easy to get ahold of, and followed up a few days before the booking to confirm and schedule a second meet & greet. Would absolutely recommend.”

“Madeleine has done check ins and overnights for us on multiple occasions. Consistently great communication and extremely reliable. I would definite recommend her!”

“Brooklynn was wonderful with our dog Otto! She sent us frequent updates and photos, took him for fun adventures, and made sure he was happy and safe while we were away for the weekend. She left our house spotless too! We would definitely love to have Brooklynn spend time with Otto again. Thank you, Brooklynn!”

“I cannot recommend Ryan highly enough! Leaving my high-needs, anxious dog for a work trip is always a source of stress, but Ryan completely put my mind at ease. From our initial meet-and-greet, it was clear that Ryan is not only a true animal lover but also incredibly knowledgeable and patient. My dog requires a lot of extra attention and can be quite nervous with new people, but Ryan handled him with such a calm and confident demeanor. I received regular updates, including photos that showed my dog was not just being cared for, but was comfortable in Ryan's hands. This consistent communication was invaluable and allowed me to focus on my work knowing Oliver was okay. Ryan went above and beyond to alleviate his anxiety and let him have the space he need to feel comfortable. I returned home to a happy, relaxed dog, which is the best indicator of the excellent care he received. In addition, the house was spotless which is always nice to return home too. If you're looking for a pet sitter who is reliable, compassionate, and truly understands how to care for anxious or high-needs pets, Ryan is absolutely the one to choose.”
“Ashton was a great sitter for our dog and cat while we traveled out of town for a few days. My dog can be a bit anxious so it’s always a bit nerve wrecking leaving her with someone else but Ashton was up for the challenge and my anxious girl warmed right up to her. She even made an extra trip over during the day when my dog was having a little bit of a panic moment. Will definitely use her again!”

“Sparrow was great. They were very attentive to Lilly and Brynn and showed them tons of love. They took time to understand and adhere to Lilly’s strict medication schedule which is critical to her care. They sent plenty of updates to let us know our girls were being cared for and happy. Lilly and Brynn are looking forward to spending more time with their new friend!”

“I can’t recommend Heather highly enough. She was so sweet with our dogs and very thorough during our initial meeting. While we were out of town, she stayed at our house and went above and beyond caring for babies and our space- she vacuumed at the end of her stay and even shoveled our deck, both without being asked. Each day we were gone, Heather sent us multiple photos and updates. We would book with her again in a heartbeat!”

About: I grew up dogs from the time I was little- labs, retrievers, shepherds- and had a special needs rescue dog with my partner for many years who lived to be fifteen. When she passed, my partner and I started boarding and house sitting regularly and have built up a pretty cute little pack. I am comfortable giving oral medication and upholding your dog’s schedule, house rules, and love to take field trips whenever possible. My favorite is when a dog can come with me everywhere, so smaller senior pups have become my specialty, but I can’t help but love all the dogs who come along. As a videographer and Maine youth basketball coach I have a lot of flexibility in my work schedule and spend a lot of time working from home editing videos. I’m fairly active, always happy to take breaks from work to walk around the neighborhood or find a pet-friendly beach to run around on. I’m in an apartment very close to Deering Oaks Park and the Western Prom. The apartment is a compact second story walk up and has been carefully maintained to keep it safe for curious noses.

About: I have always loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid! I have been around dogs since I was little and I live with a cat now! I would adore taking your furry friend for a walk or checking up on your cat when you are away. I am currently trying to fit dog walking into my schedule in the mornings before my job starts (STARTING IN MAY). I can also check up on your furry friend in the evening. I am also building my online business so days I am not at my other job are more flexible! I am very good at directions and pay attention to details. I will follow the directions left by the owners when doing a check in! I listen to the pet, and if they are not so sure of me, I let them come to me (especially with cats!) And of course there will be lots of pets!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and have been helping to care for them (walking, feeding, etc.) since I was around 10 years old. I’ve pet sit for many family friends throughout the years - dogs and cats alike. Recently I even housesat for 4 dogs and 2 cats all at the same time! My family dogs both recently passed away and I’ve been looking for something to fill the whole in my heart. Would love to take care of your pets! I am a freelance writer, musician, and retail associate, so I’m able to make my own schedule a lot of the time. I’m free during the day Monday-Thursday to walk your pooch or for drop-in visits, and I’m available after work on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays (I typically get off around 3-5 pm). I can walk, feed, or house sit for your dogs or cats. Also just love spending time with them in general! Whatever you need, I’m here to help.
“Sam was wonderful with River. She was great with communication and sent frequent updates and pictures which we appreciated immensely. Having Penney come over for play dates was a bonus. We look forward to having Sam care for River again in the future. We both felt very comfortable with her which made our vacation more enjoyable!”

“Sarah was excellent at taking care of Sesame and Bob. I felt at ease knowing they were under her care while I was away. She gave constant updates and took photos of the dogs so that I know they were doing good. Thanks so much for taking good care of them!”

Destiny was incredibly knowledgeable, capable, and thoughtful watching my dog. I'd never left my dog with anyone before, so I wasn't sure exactly how it would go, but Destiny did a great job following all of our routines, keeping my dog enriched, and sent really through updates every day. I would recommend Destiny to anyone looking for a dog sitter or walker.

Kari was amazing watching our puppy. She sent photos and detailed updates, and took care of our puppy exactly as instructed (maybe even better!). She was respectful of our home and left it the same as when she arrived. Would absolutely have Kari stay at our house to dog sit again.

Sami did a great job of communicating with us while watching Jack and Penny. The house and the dogs were all in great shape when we returned. There was a mishap with a tent because of strong winds from a storm and Sami checked with us to see if we needed them to do anything to take care of the situation. We really appreciated that. The dogs were tired and happy when we got home which is always a great sign of a sitter taking the time to exercise them. We were very pleased with our visit and the ability to get away without worry. Sami even stripped the sheets from the bed!!

Emmy (and Banjo) took great care of Jameson. It is clear how much she cares about dogs and strives to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Jameson was a tired boy when we got home and our house was also well cared for. She sent lots of photo updates which we love. We will certainly hire again!!

Andy stepped in at the last minute to help us when we had to take an unexpected trip. Other than our brief meet and greet, he had no knowledge of our pets. Andy had to deal with an energetic large dog with tummy issues and two cats who hate the dog, and yet he never complained once. He fed them, scooped litter boxes, administered some medications, played with the kitties, and made sure our dog got out for regular potty breaks/walks. He also sent pictures each day. We very much appreciated his efforts!

Britt was amazing house sitting for our cavapoo puppy. She was very responsive and reassured us completely on our first trip after getting our pup. Our puppy is shy around other humans and warmed up to Britt so quickly. Would recommend her to anyone looks for house sitting or dog walking!

Emily is an awesome sitter! She was very communicative and met all the needs of our fur kid. This included giving medicines and eye drops as he is an elder dog. She kept the house clean and tidy while we were away. We could not have asked for a better sitter and highly recommend her services! Thanks Emily!!

Lindsay house sat for my dog, Clover, for almost a week. Lindsay is organized, responsible, smart, conscientious, kind, responsive, proactive, and lovely! She kept me up to date with photos and videos throughout each day, which I really appreciated. Lindsay noticed things around the house that might need tending to and took care of them - plants watering, trash/recycling out to the curb on trash day, etc. My flight home was cancelled, and Lindsay was flexible with plans. When I returned home, my place was spotless. I am so happy to have found her - highly recommend!

Shirley is truly wonderful, I am so grateful we found her! She spent the entire day and evening with our pups (one who couldn’t be left alone), and it gave me such peace of mind to know they were being cared for by someone who clearly loves animals and is kind, thoughtful, attuned to their needs - everything you’d hope for in a pet sitter. Shirley is communicative, super friendly, professional, and a lovely person. I look forward to having her hang out with our pups again, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

Tiffany was great! We had a special situation where our dog had just had TPLO surgery and he needed to stay at home supervised at all times, but we had to go to a family BBQ. He can be reactive with people who push his boundaries or have the wrong body language, so she came over for a meet and greet (it went great, he turned into a puddle for her), and then she "house sat" for us for 7 hours, keeping him calm and happy and still while we were gone. Never had to use rover for dog-babysitting but was glad she helped me figure it out!
