About: Hi there! I'm Emily and I've been around animals of all kinds, primarily dogs and cats, my entire life. Originally from Central Maine, I received my Bachelor's Degree in Marketing Management and moved to Colorado after graduation. There, I started pet sitting through Rover in 2020. I’ve worked at Denver Pro Pet Sitting in Denver, CO as a Professional Pet Sitter, as well as Parkside Pups in Brooklyn, NY. I have experience caring for: - Dogs, puppies, Senior dogs - Cats, kittens, Senior cats - Lizards - Guinea pigs and other small mammals What I am able to provide for your animals: - Dog walking, short & long walks - Administering medicine, I.e. pills, inhaler for cats, ear medicine... - Feeding for dogs/cats/small mammals/reptiles - General hangout and play time - Bring in mail/packages, water plants, switch lights/open blinds I am currently based in Buxton, Maine. I look forward to meeting your pets! I typically wake up early in the morning, and whenever there is a dog with me I go for 30-minute walks. I'm also from Maine, so winter walks are not an obstacle. I also work remotely and have a flexible hybrid schedule, so I try to be flexible for you as the dog owner. Once I've learned what your animal's schedule is like, I do my best to replicate that. I make sure to offer a meet and greet prior to any scheduled service so your pet and I can meet. I ensure I am very responsive during visits.

“Kara was a huge help when we had a last minute need for someone to come by in the middle of the day to care for our dog, Tucker. Tucker loved her right away and had a great time playing with Kara each day. We'll definitely work with Kara again!”

“Lyndsay was so wonderful walking our dog fisher each day for us! She sent lots of pictures and always gave us a full report. Would highly recommend!”

“Yasaman (Yasi) took care of our fur babies while my husband was having major surgery in the city. It was when hurricane Ida came through, so she had terrible weather to deal with as well. She provided excellent communication and regular updates. She let me know immediately when she noticed a little blood in my dog's stool. She tired out my energetic corgis with some long walks. I appreciated the care she provided and appreciated not having to worry about them since I was stressed about my hubby. Highly recommend Yasi.”

About: I grew up on a farm, so I've had experience with a variety of animals, especially dogs! My family has always had at least one dog, all with varying sizes. I've endured it all from the ankle biters, the sweetest pitbulls and border collies, to the greatest of the danes. I'm currently a college student, so my evenings and weekends are free! Being stuck in a classroom gives me the fuel I need to go on a walk with your dog or experience (safe) zoomies with your cat. Summer time is usually great because it means more time outdoors for all of us! I'm currently unable to house your pets, but I can be with them in their favorite place- whether that be your home or on a walk!

About: I’ve volunteered at the San Diego animal shelter and taken trainer courses to become certified to meet their standards. I’ve fed, bathed, walked, played and socialized with all kinds of dogs big small hyper calm young and old! I love them all! In my travels on the road I would find time to visit the local animal shelters and walk some of their dogs! If I ever see a stray or even a question in doubt about a dog I will try and find it it’s owner/home or bring it to safety. I can handle all types of dogs and love to see them happy and comfortable!! After all they are our babies!! Navy veteran, mother of two wonderful children and a small amazing Cavapoo! I have Friday through Sunday available can even take an over night on the occasional Thursday! Looking forward to meeting you and your pup 🐶 I have a large covered porch for bird watching for the peaceful environment but outback in the private backyard the pups can explore and let their hair down!! I will walk the perimeter of my property multiple times a day! A 10x10 kennel and ground stakes with leads for pups to stay tied to! There are walking trails within walking distance of property lots of good adventures await!! Will feed when requested with the food provided and constant and endless water supplied in more than one location!!! Hydrated dogs are happy dogs!!Your dog will be right at home away from home. Well mannered pups will be loose in the house. Have rooms with large enough space to separate dogs too if there is ever a concern for anyone’s safety. Please bring: harness, collar and leash, dog food and bowls. Special medication if any required. For comfort please bring their crates if they love them and bed or blankets a toy or two and a pillowcase or shirt that smells like mamma or dad so they know you are always near!!

About: I have lived with dogs since I was born but really started to help with my family’s dog around age 5. Family members, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to walk, feed, stay overnight with, and care for their dogs. I currently work the typical 9-5 with potential for a lunch walk. I would love the opportunity to take care of your pet and give them endless attention! I will ensure you that I will follow all instructions you provide and more! I have a 6 year old mini Golden Doodle that I love and miss dearly! When watching your pets, I would treat them as if they were my own!

About: I have worked with and cared for dogs all my life, and cats about half. I have trained dozens of dogs, even ones that have been “impossible”. I am a very active person and outside is better than in! Expect to get your pets back tired so you all can rest before you’re back at the grind. I love animals and visitors for my dogs and play partners for my own high energy levels. And as always, smiles and safety first. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have strong long leads, one attached to the porch (20feet) and one yard one, with a 250lbs resistant or weight limit, 50 feet long that allows dogs to safely visit and play outside in yard without wondering off. As well, a small empty dog park near by to play ball and “run free” and we frequent other dog parks. Right now I have a full-time job and just looking for a side gig doing something I love on the weekends. I love animals, even the quirky ones. Right now, just working on the weekends I’m available. I do have two small dogs at home that need to play, and love other pets. I can watch them at my home, bring them to the dog park or at your home, if I can bring my dogs with.

About: I have been pet and house sitting for 15 +years. I have worked with all different types of breeds of dogs, as well as the those with medical needs, and special diets. I have 4 dogs of my own, ranging from 3 years - 8 years. The smallest being a silly frenchie and the largest is a malinois. I am currently working from home part time and I am available after 10am everyday to come walk the dogos or whatever you might need. We have a tiny fenced in farm at our house to keep all of our dogs and other animals safe. But if staying at a clients home all safety protocol would be followed to their standards.

About: Animals have always been part of my life, and I am currently in a stage where I cannot have my own, so I take care of other peoples for my fix! Spending time with animals bring so much joy and light into my life, I hope I can do the same for them. I am comfortable with dogs in all stages of life. I'm currently working part time at the hospital, and am able to plan out my schedule about a month or two in advance. I am looking for a couple of consistent clients, but if you need help here and there I'm your girl! I treat all animals with respect and love. My highest concern is always the animals safety, I am constantly assessing the situation when I have an animal in my care.

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was little. I have had experience with small/big dogs, puppies, cats and hamsters. My puppy experience has involved some kind of training and taking them for walks. I have always cared for animals as they have always been apart of my life. I am currently a Junior at Saint Joseph's College of Maine. I am also a participant on the Women's Basketball Team. I am pretty available throughout the week besides having classes and on the weekends I am available all day. In my home, I have a fenced-in backyard. We also have a camera set up in the house to watch our puppy if none of us are home while she is gated in our mudroom. I have a leash line set up in the backyard and when I take her for walks where she is also on a leash.

About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes, and I wouldn't have it any other way! Animals naturally gravitate toward my calm, patient energy, and I treat every guest like a member of my own family. What truly sets me apart is my experience with specialized and complex care. I am the proud owner of a high-energy Tamaskan dog, so I completely thrive with active, high-energy breeds. I love taking dogs on long walks, structured dog park adventures, public socialization outings, and even handling bath trips! Additionally, growing up on a property with racehorses taught me a deep love, respect, and safety-first mindset for large animals. I have also raised over 15 chickens and roosters. Whether you have an athletic pup who needs an intense workout, a multi-pet household, or livestock that need exact farm routines followed, I bring a lifetime of versatile, trustworthy experience to your extended furry family. My schedule is highly adaptable, allowing me to fully commit to your pet's exact daily routine! Because pet care is my primary focus, I have plenty of time throughout the day for active dog walks, park trips, and dedicated drop-in visits. For boarding and overnight care, your pet will receive constant supervision and companionship. I structure my days around the needs of the animals in my care, ensuring that high-energy breeds get their necessary exercise and senior pets stay perfectly on track with their medication and rest schedules. Safety and peace of mind are my absolute top priorities. Growing up around racehorses instilled a strict safety-first mindset in me from an early age, which I apply to every animal I watch. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, secure, and highly comfortable environment where they are treated just like my own. Because I own a high-energy breed, I am incredibly vigilant about environment control, secure doors, and safe socialization. When caring for pets in your home or managing farm routines, I am extremely detail-oriented. I take the time to meticulously learn your specific setup, gates, security measures, and animal dynamics. I also provide clear, consistent communication and photo updates during every single booking so you can relax knowing your pets and property are in expert, loving hands.

“Ashley M. Is great. We got lots of pictures. Ashley was a great communicator in the run up to her visit. She was here exactly when expectes. Jasper was thrilled to have her here. Two paws up.”

About: I’ve been dog-sitting for families in Portland on and off for the past two years, along with caring for dogs in my own family. Through these experiences, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from playful puppies and energetic younger dogs to senior dogs who need extra patience, gentleness, and care. I’m attentive, loving, and gentle, with a strong ability to read dogs’ cues and recognize what they need to feel comfortable and happy. I understand that younger dogs may need plenty of activity and playtime, while older dogs often benefit from a calm, patient sitter who moves at their pace and provides a warm, reassuring presence. Every pet and family has their own routines, preferences, and expectations. I’m committed to following your instructions carefully and caring for your dog the way you would, so they feel safe, loved, and right at home! I work remotely from 9–5 Monday through Friday, so I’m available every evening and on weekends for pet care. Since I work from home, I’m also happy to provide longer daytime stays or overnight care, as long as I’m able to work from your home. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication for every pet in my care. Before a booking, I like to learn about each pet’s routine, personality, dietary needs, medications, exercise preferences, and any potential concerns. I follow the pet parent’s instructions carefully and keep a close eye on pets so I can respond quickly if anything seems unusual. In a client’s home, I treat the space with the same care and respect I would my own. I keep doors, gates, and other escape routes secure, maintain a clean environment, and make sure pets have access to fresh water, food, and a comfortable place to rest. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident while they’re away!
