“Brianna was awesome! She took my pup on a long 1 hour walk and was so so well cared for. He immediately loved her when we did a meet and greet too. Thank you so much, Brianna!”

About: Hi! I'm Marena—a lifelong animal lover and caretaker. I began dog and cat sitting at a very young age, and actively volunteering for animal rescues and farm sanctuaries in 2016. From socializing shelter puppies to shearing sheep, administering medication to llamas, and filing pig tusks, I've loved it all! I enjoy getting to know all sorts of personalities—from the active and boisterous, to the more reserved or anxious—my awareness of animal behavior allows me to provide the most positive and comfortable experience for your pet. In my free time I love bringing my dog, Lucy, for long walks on the beach (her favorite!) and exploring the outdoors. I'm currently a volunteer at the Maine State Society for the Protection of Animals, and a member of the Animal Rescue Team for the Humane Society of the United States. I have experience in pet first aid/CPR, basic obedience training, canine enrichment (agility work, nose work), and emergency response. I earned a certificate in Large Animal Emergency Rescue in June 2023 and am currently working toward certification in the Masterson Method of equine bodywork to relieve stress and tension in horses. I look forward to meeting you and getting to know your animals! Thank you! I’m currently a freelance graphic designer/creative strategist and am generally available on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. Mondays and Wednesdays are possibilities if given enough notice. Before booking a new client, I request that we schedule an in-person meet and greet. This makes it easier to build trust, as not all animals are instantly at ease with an unfamiliar person in their home. It also helps me learn specific details pertaining to my visit. I try to match your pet's routine as best as possible. This means learning what time they're used to eating, what their favorite activities or toys are, and any other preferences they may have. Overall, I strive to care for clients' pets as I do my own animals. This means lots of love, pictures, and regular updates to ensure you know how they're doing. And, as a guest in your home, I promise to leave everything as orderly and clean as it was when I arrived!

“Super appreciative of Kelly taking good care of our Lulu!”

“Nicholas did a great job with my dog Cody while I was away for a long weekendI had Nicholas come once a day for a long walk with Cody because my mom was alone with the dog all day and it gave her a break from duties and got some of his puppy energy out! I love the pictures he sent to let me know Cody was doing ok.”

About: (FOR ALL BOARDING AND DAYCARE, DISTEMPER/RABIES PROOF REQUIRED) Hi there! I’m Lorenzo, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for all kinds of pets—dogs (from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors, all the way up to hands-on work with service dogs and police K9s), cats, and even farm animals. I love making sure every animal gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve! I’m also the proud owner of two amazing dogs: Rocco, my Belgian Malinois, and Vito, my Shepherd × Retriever mix. We stay active with hikes, mountain biking, training sessions, and plenty of other outdoor adventures. If your dog loves exploring, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise and stimulation! I also offer dog training as a service, so pups can have fun while learning good habits. If your pet prefers a slower pace, I’m just as happy providing calm walks and relaxed companionship. Whether it’s a walk through the neighborhood, an adventure in the woods, a home visit, or a training session, I’ll treat your pet like they’re one of my own. My goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, has fun, and gets the attention they deserve while you’re away. Can't wait to meet you and your dawg! I can be very flexible and accommodating for your pets needs, whether it's daily visits, overnight boarding, or midday walks. Let me know your pet's routine and I'll be happy to accommodate! Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities! Pets will be treated just like my own, staying in a comfortable home environment where they can feel safe and cared for. I’ll take the time to earn their trust, respect their personality, and make sure every walk or visit is fun, relaxing, and stress-free!

“Martha is great and very accomodating. The dogs enjoy their time with her.”

About: I have been a pet "Mom" for many years. I treat each furbaby as one of my own. In addition, I'm a reliable, retired home care provider. My own dog is about 80 lbs, and I can expertly manage small, medium, and large dogs. I monitor pets and look for changes. I have partnered effectively with anyone who needs care for their pet. As long as no other owner has booked me, I am available 5 days a week and have flexibility with scheduling at this time. I will follow your instructions with how you keep your pets and your home, including how you manage your routines with food, potty breaks and walks and any special requests you have for their care. I will care for them as I would my own. For myself, I do enjoy quiet activities, and furbaby snuggles are one of those. My dog is a trained service dog. He is welcomed almost anywhere I go. He gets fed twice a day, treats as earned, and lots of love. I would pass these skills and habits along to your home and your pets.

“Makenzie was amazing with Lola! She was very responsive and sent lots of pics. Have already booked again!”

About: Hi! my name is Ally! I have grown up with dogs my whole life, from Dalmatians to Jack Russell’s. I started volunteering at the NHSPCA in high school and discovered my love for helping & animals. I am a registered nurse and looking to fuel my hobby spending time with animals. I currently work full time in Dover, NH and bring my dog Poppy into the office with me. My family had a 12 year old blind Jack Russell named Sherman who was not friendly to other animals while we were growing up, so I am used to dogs on the more complicated side. I believe every animal deserves love and attention and I hope to provide that! My schedule is flexible on the weekends. I work full time but am home by 5pm so ai can do evenings as well. I love to keep animals in their routines. Even if it’s just being with them at home. I am a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter who cares a considerable amount for all animals. I will happily care for them like my own.

“I’m new to using a dog walker. Finding Deb was a wonderful surprise. I was able to leave knowing Ollie and Penny would be safe, happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Deb to anyone needing help with their pups.”

“Pat was amazing with my dog who is a very senior dog with some bad hip problems. He was kind, sent great feedback and took great care of my dog. Will hire again! Thanks Pat!”

“Kelda was an amazing help by taking my dog on a last minute walk. She shared a photo from the walk and I could tell Maggie got her energy out. Will definitely book again!”

About: I enjoy exercise-focused walks. I have two large dogs and I believe a tired dog, is a happy dog. Each walk is tailored to meet your dog's energy level and exercise needs. Whether it's a leisurely stroll through the neighborhood or a brisk trail/beach walk, I ensure that your dog gets the physical activity (and love) required to maintain their health and happiness. I work remotely from home or cafes and have a flexible schedule throughout the week. I accept same day bookings and I'm happy to help in a pinch. Walking: One of my dogs is a rescue that I trained from having reactive behavior to an incredible family member. I believe in maintaining clear boundaries and reinforcing positive behavior during our walks. Drop-ins: I have the upmost respect for your space and will make sure your dog is mud-free at drop off. I will happily follow your house rules and specifications.

About: I was lucky enough to train at a highly established pet boarding facility for over two years, in which time I learned how to provide the best experience for all of our furry friends. I am also CPR certified for adult dogs, puppies, and cats! Aside from that, I have grown up with and around dogs my whole life. I am almost certain, your furry friend/s and I will become best buds, if given the chance! I am currently a full time student at The University of Maine, however my schedule is very light next semester with most of my classes being online. I will also have cheer practice two-three times a week, leaving plenty of time for me to give tons of attention to your pets! Depending on what you would prefer, I am able to take walks, field trips, play dates, and of course lots of snuggles and belly rubs. If requested I am also able to do enrichment activities, for pups with the energy of hundreds!

About: Hi! I’m Terri, and I’ve spent most of my life working with people, animals, and creating environments where others feel safe and cared for. I was a teacher for 20 years, so I’m extremely patient, responsible, and attentive to details—qualities that translate perfectly to caring for pets. I also have a strong background in customer service from my time at the Four Seasons, where I learned how important trust, communication, and reliability are. My schedule is very flexible right now, and I’m currently available most days from late morning through the evening. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and provide consistent, reliable care. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention to routines, surroundings, and each pet’s comfort level. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I always follow any instructions you provide to keep your pet safe and happy.

“Barbara did an excellent job. Hank loves to see her. I will definitely hire her again.”

“Kristen was great with the pups, kind and caring, but they aren't quite ready for a dog walker- gonna take some time to get these rescues ready for other people to watch them:)”

About: Hi! Heya! Hello! Are you looking for someone to care for your pet while your away? Well you've found them! Fun, energetic animal lover who can't wait to meet your pet! Drop-ins and Walking! Volunteer work with B.A.R.K, S.P.C.A, as well as experience working as a kennel assistant at Holiday Barn Pet Resort. Why I love dog sitting? I've always gravitated towards animals; I was that kid who brought home any animal that crossed my path, feeding strays, foresting. Growing up in a home where the pet to human ratio always favored pets, pet sitting is second nature to me. My experience administering medication I've done my fair share of administering medication to all sorts of animals. I am able to administer oral, injections, topical ointments, as well as suppositories. I currently work a dual remote position at NHPBS and have the flexibility to work from home which allows me ample time to provide the attention and care your pet requires. I’ll be an extension of your home and care. The goal is to provide a safe environment where your pet feels loved and has an enjoyable stay until your return.
