“Caroline did a wonderful job with our goldendoodle Ollie. I had to leave for a family emergency and at a moment's notice Caroline was able to care for my very energetic goldendoodle puppy for five days and nights. I got plenty of updates and Ollie seemed very happy when we picked him up. Would definitely recommend and plan on using her services again!”

About: I've been in contact with dogs as long as I've been walking and talking. My parents always had a pack of 4 running around the house and my brothers and I were frequently helping out with feeding, walking, etc. I used to spend a lot of my weekends with my mom’s poodle, trimming his unruly coat! I also have owned rats, fish and cats, and am comfortable caring for them, as well as birds. Just let me know if you have a smaller critter that needs some care! I have experience with farm animals such as horses and chickens, and am happy to watch goats, cows, you name it!! I work a remote job from home as a Peer Support Specialist, so while dog sitting, I can remain in your home all day to watch over your pets! I clicker train my dog Artemis and have mini training sessions everyday with her. I'm more than happy to include your dog if you let me know what you'd like to work on. I also have experience with reactive dogs, as my late mastiff mix came into my care with an extreme case of stranger reactivity that I managed. So, if your pup is timid or shy, I will for sure still take them on and give them the best experience catering to their specific fears. I know owning a reactive dog can be isolating and stressful. Let me take some of that stress away by being understanding of your pups and their needs! I’m more than happy to arrange meet and greets to discuss fido’s specific needs and let them get used to my presence. Understanding and listening is important in managing reactivity, and I’m more than happy to be that person!

About: I have years of experience with a variety of special needs pets. I work from home so there is plenty of time for playtime, exercise and lots of snuggles. Your home or mine. Short stay or long. I’ll give your furry friend the VIPet treatment they deserve! My work from home schedule is pretty flexible and I’m available for drop off/pick up most anytime between 9am and 7pm, seven days a week I live in a spacious house with a big yard in a very dog friendly neighborhood. It’s a popular area for walking, and a short stroll to nearby hiking trails.

“Christina is super professional, patient, and amazing with dogs. She has helped me immensely with my new rescue puppy and his rascally behaviors. She has a great set-up that is safe and shaded. Highly recommend.”

About: Hey there – my name is John, and I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong. I'm currently working from home on a flexible basis, that means I have all day to take care of your pup, whether that be at home or out on a hike or the park! I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed, and they would never be unattended. Feel free to bring their favorite toys or let them choose from our selection. I have an 1100 sqft home with hardwood floors (accidents happen and that’s not a problem!), and I have a back yard for leash walks and fresh air. Just tell me about their usual day and we’ll make it happen! Looking forward to meeting your furry family member, and I’ll love them like they’re my own!

“We were lucky to find Lindsay to help us enjoy a night out while our puppy was in good care. Our Seven clearly had a good time romping with Lindsay's Olive as he slept in and now back resting in his kennel. Yay '-) Thank you Lindsay (and Olive) !”

About: With over 3 years of professional pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—including puppies, senior pets, and those with special routines. I’m not just a sitter—I’m your pet’s second best friend while you’re away. What sets me apart is the level of personalized care I provide, my strong communication with pet parents, and my flexibility to adapt to each pet’s unique habits and energy levels. I work full-time as a pet sitter, so your pet’s well-being and routine are my top priority. I’m experienced with multi-pet households, large breed dogs, and high-energy pups that need extra playtime. I also offer overnight stays with discounted rates for multiple pets, and I’m happy to discuss custom bundles based on your needs—whether it’s a weekend getaway or a longer trip. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, communicates consistently, and treats your pets like family—I’d love to help. Pet care is a big part of my daily life—I’m a full-time sitter, so my schedule revolves around the pets I care for. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they’re used to. I also block off time for overnight stays and am available on weekends and holidays with advance notice. Since this is my primary focus, I’m flexible and responsive, making it easy to accommodate custom routines or last-minute bookings when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or stopping in for visits, I treat every space with the same respect and attention I would expect for my own. I make it a priority to stick closely to each pet’s routine so they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I maintain a calm, clean environment, follow all feeding, potty, and medication instructions closely, and always double-check doors, gates, and locks. I’m mindful of each pet’s comfort level and body language, especially when it comes to shy or energetic pets, and I adjust my approach to match what they need—whether it’s quiet company, active play, or just a little extra patience. For overnight stays, I create a peaceful and familiar atmosphere by keeping to your pet’s bedtime routine, favorite toys, and walking routes. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: People say I am an animal whisper. Specifically pets. However, I don’t consider myself a whisperer. I call it RESPECT. I treat any animal like it’s my own and I get on the same level with the furry friend (both literally and intellectually). And yes, people may think I’m weird because I talk to the animals out loud but I believe animals who are living organisms (like people) get RESPECT! I currently work full time. However that won’t stop me! If a time will not work for both you and me then I will make a priority to try and arrange a time to provide a service as soon as possible. I will walk your furry companions as long as you would like. If it’s really hot out no matter if it’s a short or long walk, I can bring a container and a thing of water as well as during the walk. I will provide rest breaks in the shade. Pet sitting I will play with them, make sure there food is always available (clients preference) and if they need to go out I’ll be happy to take them out.

“Great communication beforehand and through the day, and then a delightful summary of the day when we picked Tessa up. We were especially grateful for Ilsa's willingness to keep Tessa into the evening so we could have dinner with relatives some distance away.”

About: I grew up on a farm with animals and I’ve always had animals to care for including raising and training and providing for them. I currently have a beautiful 8 year old Black Lab. I’m currently retired and find myself searching for rewarding activities I have plenty of time to play and enjoy your fur babies when you can’t. I am available to walk, potty,play, talk, feed,brush, crate and spend the night if needed. We will follow their routine as close as possible during my stay.

“I felt that Alex took care of our puppy like it was her own. He was tuckered out at the end of the day and got to meet other farm animals, which was great! It’s a great opportunity for us to socialize our puppy, in a safe environment. Definitely will continue bringing our pup to Alex!”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs almost all of my life, I have experience with puppies and old dogs. I have a large private property with a long dirt road for long walks, and a fenced in front yard . Dogs really love it here. I am a retired school teacher with lots of energy and time to spend with your furry family member. There is plenty of love and fun times to be shared here, I have 23 acres for long walks, a fenced in front yard and a lake to swim and chase balls. I also have a large deck for drying off before coming inside. Your dog will love it here!

“Can't recommend Erin enough—we felt like we were leaving Friday with an old friend! She responded to us instantly and was able to fit Friday into her schedule last minute. She went above and beyond to make sure that Friday was comfortable and well taken care of during the day. To top it off, we received so many fantastic photographs. We will definitely be reaching out again once we are back in Waterville. You can't go wrong with Erin and her friendly pack of dogs!”

About: Hi, I have taken care of my own pets and other people's pets for years. I moved to Mid coast ME 5 yrs ago from Nantucket. I am also a professional gardener, so if you need watering etc while your away. I am currently self employed, so I have a flexible schedule. We can figure out a plan for your pet care. Look forward in planning w you. I have a dog Elka and 2 cats. Elka is easy going dog who loves other dogs and cats. I think the best way is to have the dogs meet and see how things go w them before a care schedule can begin. We have also traveled and cared for other dogs in their homes and everyone gets along.
