Cat Sitting in Cape Elizabeth

“Nishat is kind, professional, and reliable. I have two cats, one of whom is high-needs, skittish, and receives many medications. Nishat handles it all with aplomb!”

“Absolutely recommend Stacey! She checked in on our puppy and cat twice, and did so at the exact time she said she would. We got lots of pictures and were so happy with her care!”

Abby S.

“Nikki was great at communicating, providing updates, and sending pictures. I came home to two happy cats after their time spent with her. Highly recommend booking drop in visits with Nikki!”

About: I have cared for dogs and cats for most of my life. I have experience walking multiple dogs around my neighborhood, and staying overnight with dogs to provide 24 hour care. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and love getting to know each unique personality. I have cared for households of up to 6 cats and am well versed in tending to all their needs, including administering medications. I think the best way to succeed as a sitter is to take time to understand the animal and establish trust! I have complete availability this summer and can care for animals days and nights, seven days a week! I am open to working with multiple pets each day depending on their needs. I have two cats at home which are primarily indoor. I have experience walking dogs on and off leash. While I don’t have a fenced in yard at home, I would love to bring your pups to a dog park or play with them in your backyard. Keeping my eye on pets while outside, to ensure safety is my biggest priority. I am comfortable crating your dog at the end of our play date!

“Jesika went above and beyond to help me out. On short notice, she took on this shift on Thanksgiving, which is a busy day. She arrived on time, handled all my requests efficiently, and managed to complete the task without ever being at my home. She even left everything in the same condition and sent me photos and videos as a thank you. I highly recommend her services.”

“Jess took great care of my 2 kitties when I was away. I got a daily photo with a cute snuggle picture of my friendly cat. It felt good to know they were so well cared for.”

About: Hi there! We’re Amanda and Austen, a couple based in Scarborough with a dog of our own (our Mini Aussie, Mazie) and a lot of love to share with yours. When Amanda’s not caring for her sweet group of five-year-olds or Austen’s not out playing tennis, we’re spending time with Mazie, chasing seagulls at the beach, hiking in the mountains, or snuggling up on the couch after a snowy play session. We love active days just as much as laid-back ones, and we’re happy to match whatever energy your pup brings. We both grew up in homes with animals- at one point, Amanda had five dogs and a cat! We have cared for dogs of all breeds and energy levels, from teacup-size rescues to large-breed couch potatoes, plus plenty of other animals over the years (including Sparkles the Bearded Dragon, Amanda’s current classroom pet). We live in a quiet neighborhood with a fully fenced-in backyard that dogs love to explore. Austen works from home full-time, so your pup will get plenty of attention throughout the day, and we share responsibilities depending on the care your pet needs. Whether it’s a weekend adventure, daily daycare, or a cozy overnight stay, we’re here to make your dog feel happy, safe, and loved. We offer care throughout the week and are happy to accommodate weekends, holidays, and special requests as our schedule allows. Austen works from home and provides consistent weekday care and supervision, while Amanda handles most weekend walks, drop-ins, and house sitting when needed. Between the two of us, your pet will never go long without company, playtime, or a potty break. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a last-minute trip, we’ll work with you to make sure your pup is happy and cared for. Our day care rate is based on an 8 hour day. We're happy to have your dog with us for longer, but we may ask for an additional fee based on the number of hours. We know how important it is to trust someone with your pet. That’s why we always begin with a meet-and-greet to ensure your dog is comfortable with us, and you’re confident in the care we provide. We take a gentle, respectful approach, especially with shy or anxious dogs, and we’ll always ask for your guidance on what makes your pup feel safe and secure. Whether we’re in your home or ours, we want to provide a low-stress, enriching environment with plenty of attention, structure, and love. We’re also happy to provide regular updates (with photos!) and check-ins during every visit or stay, so you’re always in the loop - because we’d want the same from someone watching Mazie.

About: i have taken care of a lab and a sweet tortie cat throughout my life! i have also walked/fed/sat for several pets in the past for neighbors, including single dogs and cats, and multiple cats. I am recently graduated from college and am looking to fill my free time! I currently am working a day-shift job (9:30-6) and am willing to care for animals both before and after those hours. i make sure that the pet feels comfortable (or like it can tolerate) my presence before most activities! a lot of how i care for my animals are very schedule based, usually they even tell me in their own ways when they are ready/want to walk or be fed!

“Hannah was such a sweet babysitter for our cats. She was on time to do a meet and greet the week before, and let us add on extra days to accommodate our travel. She took lots of pictures of our cats and seemed like she played with them a bit during her visits. I highly recommend her service and will book with her again!”

“Anna was so wonderful. She watched our cat while we went away for the 4th of July. She was incredibly communicative and sent wonderful pictures/updates. Would recommend Anna to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter!”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and caring for pets since I was younger. I am at college right now, missing my dog so your pup will be very well loved :) I am a college student with 2-3 classes every day Monday-Friday. Other than during classes I am happy to host your dog in my dorm! I love to cuddle with pups in my bed and take them on walks to sniff around campus! While my room is just the size of a bedroom, it has AC, big windows, and I am happy to take your dog outside as much as needed! I am confident in my ability to read and understand dog’s body language while encountering other people/pets. I have experience dog sitting for family friends as well as caring for pets after they have been injured and experience breaking up dog fights (family friend used to foster).

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have had three dogs and two cats over the years. I’m currently raising a golden retriever puppy with my family and absolutely love spending time with dogs. Friends have always trusted me to watch their pets while they’re out of town because they know I treat every animal like family. I’m the kind of person who stops people on the street just to ask if I can pet their dog. Caring for animals genuinely makes me happy, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to give your pets the attention, care, walks, and love they deserve. I care for every pet like my own, always putting their safety, comfort, and happiness first. I stay alert on walks, careful around other dogs, people, traffic, and our surroundings to make sure pets feel safe and secure at all times. I also have a fenced yard for safe play and experience caring for and crate training puppies since I currently have 2 dogs.

“Cameron is a natural with dogs. My dog, Missy Birch always remembers and is excited to see Cameron when he comes over. Their walks include: neighborhood strolls or local trails. Cameron is kind, patient, attentive, and very responsible, I've known Cameron for many years and it’s clear he genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs & cats! Missy Birch loves Cameron and she says she would highly recommend him to walk and hang out with more dogs!”

“Jackiellen took great care of our kitty, Pepper for our first time leaving her since we adopted her. She was right on time with every drop in visit and gave us reassuring updates and photos. We could tell Pepper was well looked after. Will definitely book Jackie again!”

“Gigi has been absolutely fabulous with my dog Thor these past few weeks. She takes excellent care of him. Takes him for a walk around my house, fills up the water bowl and sits on the porch with him. She also gives a great detailed update on the rover card of what he did during her stay with him and sends lots of photos. I have been so happy to have her take care of Thor while we are at work and puts me at ease knowing she is there to let him out on those long days. Will definitely rebook again!!!”

“I definitely recommend Catey, particularly if your quadrupedal babes tend toward anxiety or need confident medication administration. This is the first sitter I've ever hired who wasn't already familiar with my cats and our home. I was nervous because of my boys needs medicated eye drops every 12 hours, which isn't his favorite thing by far, and he also generally takes a while to get comfortable with new people. Catey's super calm and solid demeanor was evident from the get-go, and this helped my boy a lot. Meds went off without a problem. Everything that needed doing for both cats was done, and my boys were chill as can be when I returned home. Catey was also super communicative and seemed like a solid, kind person in general. I couldn't ask for more from a sitter!”

About: I have always loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid! I have been around dogs since I was little and I live with a cat now! I would adore taking your furry friend for a walk or checking up on your cat when you are away. I am currently trying to fit dog walking into my schedule in the mornings before my job starts (STARTING IN MAY). I can also check up on your furry friend in the evening. I am also building my online business so days I am not at my other job are more flexible! I am very good at directions and pay attention to details. I will follow the directions left by the owners when doing a check in! I listen to the pet, and if they are not so sure of me, I let them come to me (especially with cats!) And of course there will be lots of pets!

“Awesome!!”

“Mackenzie was so great with our cat! Such a relief to know he was being so well taken care off. Will definitely have Mackenzie do drop-ins again.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was in high school. I currently have an elderly cat who receives medication by hand twice a day, so I have experience working with senior animals that need more advanced care. I would love to work with your pet!! I am available Friday - Saturday when you need me and can make myself available in the late afternoons and evenings Monday - Thursday as needed for repeat pet sitting! I am a calm, patient individual and want to get to know your pet at their speed. I am great spending time with your pet in your home where they are the most comfortable or taking dogs out for walks as needed!
