About: Hi everyone! I grew up in Minnesota in a house full of spaniels. Since then, I have dog-sat for family and friends for short and extended periods! I have also raised a fur baby of my own- my (almost 2) year old Sussex Spaniel, Gus. Pet care fits into my daily/ weekly schedule naturally, as I have a dog of my own. I’m currently working a fully remote job, and can accommodate pet needs easily throughout the day! I build my day around making sure my dog gets enough love, care, attention, and exercise, and will do the same for yours! I strive to follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or yours. At my place, I have a friendly dog that would love to play and keep yours company. At yours, I will respect the space and routine, provide regular updates, and give your dog plenty of attention and affection!

“A very safe wonderful place for my pup for the day. Easy access to their place and an adorable clean neighborhood. Lots of pics and walks. Ideal situation for us. Rachael was wonderful.”


“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.”


“Alma was great with Reynard and sent photos and updates throughout the day. Reynard and Birdy got along well. Very happy that Alma was able to accommodate a last minute booking and we will certainly book her again!”



“Trish took great care of my dog when I in a pinch and needed daycare for my dog while visiting Old Orchard Beach. I had never left my dog with a stranger before so I was a bit apprehensive, but Trish took photos, showing my dog being relaxed, happy and well taken care of. She took all of my worries away, and I will certainly be reaching out to Trish again for my doggy daycare needs.”


“Meghan was absolutely fantastic! She was super responsive to texts, flexible with dates and times, and sent so many cute photos! Dom loved playing with her dogs and even got a walk in! We were able to enjoy our day at steamboat knowing he was in good hands. Shes super close to the resort as well! Will definitely book again!!”


“Seth and his family are truly so wonderful. He was a huge help to us out-of-towners who needed a place for our pup to hang out. Rudy has some separation anxiety and Seth was absolutely wonderful with him. He sent photos throughout the day and put our mind at ease. Would absolutely 100% recommend trusting him with your dog!!”


“It’s so hard to find a sitter who is willing to work with our schedule and then we found Alicia! She was great with communication and making sure we had plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day.”

“Emma was wonderful and our dog seemed right at home with her. Emma was very responsive to our messages and also send a few pics of our pup to let us know he was happy. While it was a short stay this time, We will absolutely have Emma watch our dog whenever we are in Portland.”


About: I’ve been a loving parent to both cats and dogs for 25 years. I love animals and am happy to accommodate walk schedules, medications, injections, and of course, lots of playtime and scritches! My pup and I do pretty much whatever we want, whenever we want. I have a flexible work schedule and am often at home, so can accommodate desired potty break and walk times, medications, preferred activities (beach, dog park, hanging out at the house.) My pup is always ready for company and activity, but knows when it’s time to relax. I live in a private house set far back from the street, with a large, well kept (but unfenced) 1.5 acre yard. My dog, Pepper, is an extremely social, playful, but chill and well-behaved 5yr old neutered Jack Russell mix. He loves playtime with other dogs, but is respectful of the quieter styles of older dogs or dogs just needing rest. I have a comfy crate suitable for small to medium dogs (if you crate), lots of toys, and lots of time to engage with your sweetie. The area surrounding my home is safe and quiet, with many options for woodland walks. I live near dog-friendly beaches and the Saco river, so splashing is an option, too! If your dog has good recall, I can provide off-leash time in the 1.5 acre yard. I have a front porch with a protective gate to keep the sunbathers from getting out, and lots of space for indoor play time and resting as well.


“Joshua and his wife were amazing with my dog while we were visiting the area. They sent pictures and videos and were so flexible and accommodating. It was obvious that my dog was very happy to stay with them during the day.”

West Scarborough dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alicia was amazing with our puppy moose! We were hesitant to bring him to any doggy daycare because he is so little, but alicia took such great care of him and made sure all of his needs were met!! Moose had such a good time and she made sure to send lots of updates throughout the day. We will definitely be using her again in the future.
