I know ほど means ‘degree’ or ‘extent’ and so 僕のほど might translate as ‘to my
extent’ but I don’t see how that possible translation fits with the rest of
the sentence’s meaning.

> 彼女が僕に対して持っている気持ちは、僕のほど強くないようだ。

My translation: The feelings she holds against me don’t seem to be that
strong.

Meaning of 僕のほど in this sentence
The way I read this, you shouldn't see it as 僕のほど with の as the 'possessive'
like 僕の猫, but rather view の here as acting like a quasi-pronoun. Like
"彼女の車は青い。僕のは黒い。"

> 僕の(気持ち)ほど強くないようだ

[ほど often follows a noun
directly](http://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=%EF%BD%9E%E3%81%BB%E3%81%A9) without a
の outside of keigo, and I think this is one of those situations.

So you could read the sentence as:

> It seems that the feelings she has for me aren't as strong as mine.
