Pet Sitting in Birch Harbor

“Chloe was great - she sent very detailed messages and pics each day and the cats really seemed to like her. We came home and they acted like we hadn't even been gone (because Chloe took such good care of them). Chloe was lovely and we'd definitely use her again in future!”

“Glendon was absolutely amazing with my two fur-babies! My boy doesn't warm up quickly to people but I can tell by the video and picture Glendon sent that Copper was a huge fan too! Excellent communication, timely and very attentive to any requests/special needs of my pups! Highly recommend and will be using him again!”

About: Hello! I'm Ashley. I am 34 years old. I am from Stuart, FL. I am working in Bar Harbor for the summer from April to October. I have always been an animal lover and if I could afford a farm and have every type of animal in it... I would. I have owned, dogs, fish, and birds. I have had dogs most of my life. I had a Jack Russell who lived to be 11 years old named Romeo...He was a ball of energy, he had eye problems and needed drops daily. I also had a Rat Terrier named Oliver, we bought him at a year old. He lived to be 14 years old. Most recently my sister currently has a mini golden doodle, who is 4 years old. I loved taking my dogs on the trails in the parks. If I didn’t travel so much, I would love a dog of my own. I work seasonal contract jobs outside the National parks, mainly in the summer season. I go walking everyday & I would love to bring your pup with me. I am renting a place with other people so I would have to go to their home. I am very attentive and can play with them in the yard or whatever is asked.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life—both my own and others'. My most recent dog, Dozer (a dopey 70 lb pit mix who looked like a cow), was with me for 9 amazing years. I’ve regularly walked and pet-sat for friends, coworkers, and even former customers from my barista days. I’ve lived with both large and small breeds and feel confident handling a range of personalities and energy levels—from mellow seniors to spirited puppies. I genuinely love spending time with dogs! I'm calm, patient, and attentive to each dog's unique needs—whether administering meds, sticking to a specific feeding routine, or offering extra playtime and affection. I also love being outdoors, so if your dog enjoys adventures, they’re in good hands! Don't worry, they'll get a tick check before I drop them off! I work full-time but offer evening walks during the week and full availability on weekends. I'm also available for house sitting any night of the week, and always make sure your dog feels safe, seen, and cared for in your absence. I work full-time on weekdays, so I’m available for dog walking or playtime after 5 PM on weekdays. On weekends, I have full availability and love spending the day outside with pups—whether it’s long walks, hikes, or just hanging out and relaxing. I’m also available for house sitting any night of the week. I’m committed to fitting pet care seamlessly into my routine so your dog gets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve while you’re away or busy. When caring for pets, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure the environment is secure—checking gates, doors, and any escape routes—so your dog stays safe. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care needs. During walks and adventures, I keep your dog on a leash unless you’ve specified otherwise, and I’m vigilant about avoiding hazards like busy roads, toxic plants, or wildlife. I treat every dog with patience, respect, and kindness, making sure they feel calm and loved whether we’re at home or out exploring. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands.

“Constance went WAY above and beyond for my fosters! She was patient and stayed over her time with Amelia who is a bit skiddish and reserved to help her get more comfortable. THEN!! Asked if she could help me pooper scoop!! I'm keeping her for all things dogs. Even offered her services at home with her dogs to help socialize my puppies!!! If there were 10 stars she would get them all.”

About: Hi there! I am Emily and I am 29 years old and I have had animals my entire life! I have been around all types of animals from dogs and cats to horses and pigs! I began professionally dog watching about 14 years ago and fell in love with it. I have experience with many special diets, supplements and any other health issues. I can be active with the dogs or have a snuggle day with lots of belly rubs! Let me take care of your animals and become your life-long trusted animal sitter for all of your needs! I am located in the greater Bangor area but can travel further for house sitting bookings. I work 12 hour shifts on the weekends (Fri-Sun) so I am available Monday-Thursday 24/7. I can sometimes provide weekend care as my schedule and pet’s needs allow for it. Safety is my top priority. I abide by parent’s rules and can crate dogs, if crate trained. Dogs will remained leashed and collared when outside of fenced areas. Parental rules/guidance always prioritized.

“Lindsey was wonderful! She kept our kitty safe and fed and happy. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos, our son looked forward to seeing pictures of Sammy every day. Thank you so much Lindsey ❤️”

“Kelly was fantastic!! We had a small wedding followed by dinner when she walked the dog. She was so responsive, punctual and thoughtful with her communication and made the entire evening so smooth and stress-free. Thank you, Kelly, for helping make our night so perfect!”

About: Hello! I’m originally from Virginia but am working in Bar Harbor for the summer and fall season! I have been dog sitting on Rover for over two years now and I absolutely love it. Some other facts about me are that I’m active in my church, love exploring, being in nature, and drinking coffee with friends! I grew up owning dogs and I love them! I have experience in dog sitting overnight and taking them on walks. I am a timely person who will be careful to remember your specific needs and instructions in taking care of your dog. I have experience in staying alert around other dogs and either making sure they will get along before approaching or crossing the street. I’m happy to take your dog for walks and potty breaks throughout the day, and most of all give your dog lots of love, cuddles and good company! I look forward to meeting you and getting to know you and your dog(s)! My work schedule is flexible and I’m not usually gone for longer than 3 to 4 hours. If you have any questions or requests, don’t hesitate to ask! I will care for your pets by giving them lots of pets and taking them on walks. I will be attentive to your pets needs and do everything in a timely manner because I care about caring for your pet! I will also send pictures and updates 2x a day.

“I don't think I could possibly ask for a better person to watch my beloved cat. He is a spoiled pampered creature and Megan treated him like he was her own. I felt so comfortable knowing she was with him. As long as she continues offering this service she will certainly be my 'go-to' cat sitter. I am truly grateful. My only complaint is that there are only 5 stars to give her, I'd like to tack on at least a few extras. :)”

About: I love dogs (and cats) more than anything! I am happy to treat your fur babies to the finest care during the day, overnight, while you are on vacation, or once in awhile for walks, hikes, check ins, at your place or mine! A popular request this summer has been from folks on visiting who would like me to day sit at their campground/rv/hotel/air bnb while they enjoy the park, biking, boating or going out to eat. For boarding, My husband and I have a wonderful centrally located home in the Acadia region off the island. We have a fenced in yard and can take the stress out of leaving your pets while on vacation. Pick up and drop off can be arranged at the head of the island if requested. Wedding or event coming up? I can be your pets chaperon then too, just ask :) Need to exercise your pup? Mini day hikes available too- custom fit for your pups comfort. This summer I am taking a sabbatical to my career job which means more hiking, walks and freedom to spend time with your pet- with flexible scheduling :) While my home offers a wonderful spacious lawn and garden area for the pups with a secure 4' ht enclosed fence, pets are never left unattended in the area. Happy to board with your routine in mind in terms of crating or free range of our home and total pampering. Pet sitting at your home is welcome too!

About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I grew up with several different animals and have always loved being around them and taking care of them! At a very young age I really wanted to work with animals and that same passion of working with them is still the same today! As of right now, my schedule varies! I could be working any shift from 6:30-2:30, 7:30-4:30, 9:15-5:15, or 12:15-5:15. I am a new mom who is trying to make ends meet but working still isn’t helping because daycare is so expensive! I am really trying to pet sit part time or even full time! My weekends and holidays are always open except for the occasional family trips in the summer! I do not have a fenced in yard at my home so that means that your fur babies will be kept on a leash when taking them outside. Your fur babies will also be kept company by 2 friendly dogs and 2 friendly cats! I also have to crate one of my dogs so I can easily crate dogs if needed!
