Dog Sitting in Westbrook

“Nishat graciously accepted our last minute booking, and she was able to do a meet & greet that night. Our cats seemed to feel comfortable around Nishat that very first evening, which helped us feel better about leaving our babes for the weekend. We received multiple photos after each visit and a brief update. Nishat's communications were prompt, positive, and friendly. We appreciate that she went out of her way (figuratively and literally - because she lived about 30 minutes away) to care for our cats like her own and clean up after each feeding. We highly recommend Nishat as a cat care giver! Thank you, Nishat!”

About: if you're busy and unable to walk your dog, then I'm your gal. I will provide them the much needed enrichment that they deserve while you're away and give you updates along the way. I work three days a week and have full flexibility with the remaining four. my schedule is set with my other job, so my reliability is as consistent as it can be. I will provide personalized one on one care for your dog or pet at your discretion. With my medical experience, I am also very comfortable and adept at treating common conditions in senior animals or in sick animals.

“Thank you so much for checking in on our pups!!”

“Zoey was wonderful with my pet! She was very communicative & sent lots of photos of them interacting, which eased my mind while I was traveling. I would definitely use her again!”

“Heather was amazing with our two cats! She was able to give one her pill each morning without trouble. Plus they ate well for her and she sent lots of pictures and lovely notes! We would absolutely hire Heather again.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals most of my life. I grew up with a dog and a rabbit, and I’m now a proud dog mom to two wonderful pups, Mola and Edwin. I understand how much love and attention pets need because I give it every day! I also regularly dog sit and walk for friends and family, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and routines. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or simply making your pet feel safe and loved, I’m here to help. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM, but I’m available for late afternoon, and evening visits during the week. I’m also open and flexible on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. If you’re looking for someone dependable outside of standard work hours, I’m happy to help! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. While I don’t offer boarding in my home, I’m committed to providing reliable care in your pet’s familiar environment or through drop-ins and walks. I always follow your instructions carefully and treat every pet with the same love and attention I give my own dogs. You can trust that your furry friend will be safe, respected, and well-cared-for every step of the way.

“Crystal was knowledgeable, thoughtful, kind, and consistently cared for my cat via check ins while I was away. It was clear that my cat felt comfortable and adored her attention and care. It was also clear that she adored animals and treated my cat as an individual beloved pet for which I was very grateful. She was also a great communicator. I would confidently recommend her as a pet sitter and rebook in the future - thank you again!”

“Isabel was very friendly and did a great job communicating. My cat seemed to have a great time with her while I was out of town. I'd definitely work with her again!”

About: *GREAT AT LAST MINUTE BOOKINGS* Trying to establish a customer base, so prices are LOW and we can lock them in going forward. Im a great dog dad and genuinely love all animals. I have two dogs at home. A 12 year old chocolate lab and a 3 year old yellow lab. They have been with me since they were puppies and they are my best buds and two incredible dogs. Were often at capisic park pond daily, jewels falls, the beach, or a variety of different trails. We don't go places that require a dog leash as my dogs are trained fully off leash, and that's what they are used to. I of course would walk your dog on a leash if preferred, especially until a relationship is established. They are the happiest friendliest dogs. Perfect for a third to join us if you would like your dog to socialize, its an option for sure. I'm kind and love dogs so much but we have expectations and rules to follow in order to have a good time. I'm a teacher here in Portland and am available after school at 3pm, and open on the weekends. I'm a single man, so I am available to house sit overnight. I treat pets with the upmost respect and care for them like humans. My dogs are equal in my home and have the best quality food and treats, exercise 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and sleep (take over) my bed nightly. I respect dogs well being and put that as my top priority. I talk to my dogs all the time, anticipate their needs, and am very loving, yet at the same time have rules and expectations for them to follow. I'm very good at explaining things to my dogs if they need correction with a firm voice and a loving approach.

“Sara was very kind and communicative. She played with our grumpy kitty and kept us up to date about anything going on. We really appreciated her thoroughness and will definitely be booking with her again”

Casseia T.

“Melissa always provides excellent care of my dog and cat. She is very attuned to their needs and goes the extra mile to make sure they get lots of attention when I'm away. When my dog did not finish his food, she even came back later to check on him to make sure he had eaten! My guys are always happy to see Melissa and I have peace of mind knowing she is with them.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a kid, and I’ve also fostered animals over the years. I’ve been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since high school. I am an avid walker/ runner and especially love high-energy dogs! I am a part-time mostly online college student and my schedule is pretty flexible. I'm available most mornings, evenings and weekends for drop-ins as well as some afternoons. I work at an after school program on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 1pm to 6pm. I am available for drop-in visits/dog walks as well as for taking care of your pet in your home. I am more than happy to accommodate special requests/routines for your pet's care!

About: I've cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, and gerbils. I grew up with many dogs in my household of all sizes and ages. I've cared for many cats as well, including spicy and shy cats. I am active and enjoy running and playing with dogs! As a part time job I teach pickleball clinics. I know the importance of being respectful and patient with animals, tuning into their needs and individual personalities. Vegetarian for the animals! After a successful IT career for 11+ years, I am now a student going back to school to get my master's in social work and have open availability for pet care throughout my week. I am very respectful of the needs of my clients, and make sure that their pet and home is well cared for! Communication is my strong suit and I will make sure to send photos and texts regarding care!

About: Hey, I'm Amy! I've worked in a vet clinic for 5+ years (but don't anymore) and have owned dogs my entire life. I volunteer with several dog shelters and am familiar with all breeds/sizes/ages. I can administer all sorts of meds and love playing with, walking, hiking with, beach days, or just hanging out with pups. I have a car and love taking dogs to the beach and/or parks. I have extensive experience with senior dogs, dogs requiring medications, high energy dogs, younger dogs, big and small dogs - everyone :) For the past 8 years I lived in Brooklyn and volunteered for an organization called PAWS, where volunteers have recurring dog-walking sessions for low-income, low mobility people. I sometimes fostered dogs while their owners received medical care in addition to have a regular weekly dog walking schedule 5 nights a week, from a shihtzu to a pitty mix to a geriatric pug requiring a stroller. About this sitter: I'm Amy! I love all animals, but dogs especially are my sweet spot, where I have the most experience and passion for. Meet my pets I have 2 very laid back geriatric chihuahuas and 2 indoor/outdoor cats who are sometimes in the house depending on the weather/their preference on any given day

About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and have cared for dogs consistently since I was 15, I now have my own cat and have cared for him for the past 3 years. I am a full time student but I have plenty of time between classes and the whole days during weekends which gives me plenty of time to care for any furry friends! I have a friendly 3year old cat who loves all animals. I live in a neighborhood that acts as a community, and tons of places for dogs to run around!

About: I know what it's like to be away from your fur baby and putting trust into someone else to care for them. As someone who owns two needy cats and a new puppy (!) I can assure you I will be very reliable and attentive to your pets needs. I have always enjoyed being around cats and dogs, and understand their different personalities. My availability widely varies and is pretty flexible. I do work another job but am capable to work around it. I am not looking to do "sitting" in my home at this time. Thank you for this opportunity and I look forward to taking care of your fur baby! Currently working full time, with every other Thursday and Friday off. Weekends available occasionally. Would love to let our pups play as long as they agree (: I have a nice fenced in yard that my 4mo pup loves to sprint the zoomies out in! Quiet neighborhood with plenty of safe streets to walk around.

About: To start, I have owned and lived with pets for my whole life. I grew up with a minimum of two dogs and two cats. I care for a dalmatian/pitbull mix (in my profile picture, his name is Galao!) who does not even like me, so I have gotten very good at reading dogs and their expressions! And I love cats! I grew up with two that both lived well into their 20's, so I think that should be on my petcare resume as well : ) I'm currently self employed and available during weekdays for house visits, walks, and sitting. Overnights during the week are negotiable as well. Im located in Westbrook, but willing to travel a ways! I have reliable transportaion for pets who are car trained as well, in case of emergency or if you would like me to take them somewhere! I will not be taking care of pets at my home. As I said, I take care of a very nervous dalmatian/pitbull mix who will not be involved in this at all. Apologies for the inconvenience!

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs and have done everything with them from walking to grooming and all things in between! My dogs have always been more on the mellow side but that’s not to say I can’t handle a dog with energy too. I’m currently in grad school but when I’m not in class during the week, I’d love to spend time checking in on your pet! In my down time, I love to be outside and can get your dog out too! I have no problem keeping a close eye on your pets both inside or outside. When walking them, I would definitely use a leash unless otherwise stated.

“Tara was great. She was on-time, took great care of Brynn and Lilly, and communicated very well. Brynn and Lilly would love to spend more time with her!”
