About: Hi, I’m Lindsey! Over the past 25years, I’ve had the joy of caring for pets, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. I believe pets are family, and finding the right person to look after them while you’re away is crucial. I take this responsibility seriously and approach every pet with the same love and care I give to my own. Caring is embedded in my nature and when I'm not loving on my pets or caring for others fur babies, you can find me working as a nurse. I'm currently the owner of a special needs dog and feel comfortable caring for those pets that need a little extra care. Ask me about my pet wedding service I offer! As a nurse, I have a flexible schedule that allows me the freedom to have days off with no work obligations so I can give my full attention to caring for your pet. I know that ensuring your pet has a safe environment with someone they trust is of utmost importance, so a meet and greet prior to confirming services is required. I tailor my approach based on the unique needs of each pet and their owner. When caring for pets in my home, I offer a safe and comfortable environment with ample space to play, opportunities to potty and protected sleep space. My pets are used to a structured environment, which allows them + visiting pets to settle into the new arrangement with ease. In your home, I focus on maintaining the familiar routines and surroundings that keep your pets comfortable. I follow any specific instructions you provide and adapt to your pet's habits and preferences, ensuring they feel secure and loved. My experience has equipped me with the skills to accommodate a variety of needs, whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, or providing extra attention and care. Overall, my goal is to provide seamless care for your pet so they feel safe, secure and calm while their owner is away. Daily updates with pics or videos will be sent to ensure the owner feels safe, secure and calm while they are away as well! Prior to your departure, a plan for emergencies will be discussed and I will ensure I have all necessary phone numbers and contact information.
“Atlas is the best dog sitter we’ve found on this app - probably that we’ve found ever. We cannot recommend her more highly. She went above and beyond for our dogs and was quickly our reactive dog’s favorite person. We’ll be booking with Atlas for all our future travel and dog sitting needs.”
“A last minute change of plans in the family led us to Rover.com and to Taryn. Our 5 year old rescue lab is skittish in the best of situations. From the meet and greet to the established trust relationship with our beloved Echo and the family, we were confident that we could travel and know she would be safe and attended to. We couldn't have been more pleased! We received updates and photos regularly and Echo appeared content and comfortable in all of her situations. We'll ask Taryn again for sure. It's comforting to know that she is nearby and accessible if and when we need her!”
“Anna was fantastic with our dog and cat while we were away. She kept us in the loop on activities they were doing, walks they went on and sent plenty of photos. Highly recommended!!! Will book again.”
“Kelsey was amazing! This was the first time I left Millie for the night and I felt completely comfortable. Kelsey was respectful of Millie's needs and kept me updated! I didn't have to worry about Millie at all when Kelsey was here. I came home to a clean house and a tired pup!”
About: I've had cats, dogs, geckos, and fish since I was little. Animals have always given me a reason to smile. Making them feel nurtured and loved is what makes pet relationships so meaningful. I miss my dog at home, and I would be honored to meet and care for yours whenever you need a loving sitter! I’m working part time this summer, so I have the opportunity for a couple walks a day, most days! House sitting, walking, and visits are easy for me to manage with my schedule, so reach out to schedule a visit! I will gladly go for walks and play with pets. I enjoy learning what games they like best and playing those. I also won't shy away from scratches, pets, and cuddles, because we all need them from time to time!
“Annabelle was great! Responsible, considerate, patient with my dog adjusting, and in communication.”
“Rachael is amazing. This was my first extended time away from Loaf, so I was pretty anxious. She sent me photos daily and it was clear that Loaf was very happy and relaxed with her!! I will definitely be booking Rachael again— she is communicative, trustworthy, clearly good with animals, and a great house guest, too! Upon my return, my apartment was in better condition than when I left it!”
“Everything was amazing Sammy was so happy”
“Our pups love Selena! They are both adult rescues and are fearful of most people and Selena has the best approach and way with them. They warmed up in record time! Took wonderful care of our home as well.”
About: Leaving for just a day, week or month and can’t bring your pet? I have you covered! With 10 years of experienced dog, cat and small animal pet sitting, I offer the best, full time attention to your furry loved one. Each day will be filled with active walking and love. I treat your pets as if they are my own. I will adapt to your pets needs so they have a comfortable nonstress visit while you’re away. I also like to keep in touch with a picture or a short FaceTime so you can know your pet is happy. I am very flexible and would love to help going away a little bit easier for you. Contact me today for a perfect stay or visit to your furry loved one! I am very flexible and have an open schedule to meet any needs. I will make your pet my top priority and give them the time needed. I focus my time with your pet with a lot of interaction. I tend to go on many walks, adventures to fun dog locations if acceptable/comfortable with owner, pampering them with grooming and lots of love. A pet shouldn’t feel stressed or lonely when their loved one is gone, so I try to give them the best time while you are away.
About: I’ve taken care of plenty of family/friends pets for a few years. We have a 1yr old lab and a 2 yr old cat as well. I love to work with puppies on their sit and stays (or really anything you might want assistance with). I can be sure to keep the training going! Nothing is better than a well trained dog! I currently work Monday-Friday but am happy to do evenings/overnights or even weekends for your favorite loved ones! I can also stay overnight during the week as well and go back after I’m out of work if that is ok with you and your pets schedule!! We have a 1 yr old lab who loves to play and is happy to if your pets allow it! We don’t use a leash on him at home as we live in the woods but if your dog is a runner I will keep them on a leash so we don’t have any issues. We have a run we can hook them on to play outside if they prefer to not be on a leash. Lastly our favorite place to hangout is in our basement because our big guy can run around and be in a safe place!
“Very friendly and great with my 2 cats. Also very flexible when it came to unexpected changes in plans! Will definitely book again.”
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.

Over 1 pet parents in Bristol have booked house sitting
Bristol pet parents share their Rover experiences
Candi was great to work with. This was my first time being apart from Zoey since I adopted her a year ago. Candi took time to get to know Zoey and bond with her enough that I felt comfortable leaving Zoey in her care. It was a great weight off my mind to know that Zoey would be well taken care of and comfortable while I was away. I can definitely recommend Candi and hope to turn to her again, many times in the future!
