We couldn’t have asked for a better person to love our little guy. I can’t imagine using anyone else! Thank you thank you thank you, Annette!!!”


About: I’ve been around and taking care of pets for just about 12 years. I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, fish, and a tortoise. This has helped me to learn and understand how animals need things just like humans do! I love animals just as much as humans! I am currently in Bath and looking for a little side work and some time with furry friends! My schedule varies as I work full time as well, but I am more than happy to coordinate and figure out a time that works for you! When looking after your fluffy friends at your home, I like to take some time to learn their normal patterns in their own comfy space, and just get comfortable with them! If you have any special requests and/or instructions then I will work to achieve those with your furry friends, and make them as comfortable as possible!

About: I’ve been a dog owner since I was in middle school and rescued Lily from a shelter. She was an anxious but loveable Australian Shepherd who needed lots of exercise and attention, and that’s exactly what I gave her for her 17 years of life. Over that time I also owned multiple cats, and looked after the dogs of friends and family. I love spending time with animals and I know what it takes to keep them happy and healthy . I’m currently working remotely, so I have a very flexible schedule when it comes to animal or house sitting. Since my setup is mobile I can spend as little or as much time as is needed and at your convenience. I have a large outdoor property as well as access to local trails for walking. I’m an active person but I also know how to stay safe when caring for an animal in a rural or busier environment.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats for several years. I'm comfortable and capable of taking care of pets with medical needs including but not limited to insulin. I started fostering cats, kittens, pregnant cats, puppies, and dogs for Midcoast Humane in 2020. I currently work full time as a teacher meaning early mornings and late afternoons free. I also have a comfortable amazing amount of time off with school vacations and summer vacation. During the work week I can be available for early morning walks and afternoons after 3:30. I can also stay with your pet overnight while still working and or have your pet stay in our home. I live in a very peaceful and safe area of Boothbay with very little traffic. We have an unfenced yard with an aerial dog run. We have two older children ages 11 and 13. We also have one female cat age 10 and one small terrier mix age 1 male, both animals have been fixed. Our pets are family and yours will be as well. Lots of cuddles and comfy spaces as well as walks and play.
