“Mae did an excellent job communicating and making sure my cat was happy and healthy. She provided numerous photos and videos to show how he was doing. Overall a very pleasant experience. I would highly recommend!”
“Varana did an excellent job caring for Banana, Kalina and Ollie during her drop in visits! Thank you so much for going above and beyond! It was such a relief knowing our babies were in good hands while we were away.”
“Lily provided excellent care for our cat Hobson. Our directions were followed completely and we enjoyed the daily photos. Hobson is in excellent condition after this booking. We are very grateful.”
“Justin and Eva were great. They showed up on time, cleaned up more than we were expecting and gave us plenty of updates on our cats. Our shy cat even started staying in the same room while they were there which is huge. I highly recommend them.”
“Anna was a great sitter for my two cats. She was patient with their needs and quirks. She made sure our shyest cat felt safe and comfortable. She provided excellent photo and written updates everyday. I highly recommend.”
“Glendon was so outstanding- super attentive to my elderly cat’s needs over a holiday, great communication, and a true animal lover. Glendon also shared amazing fun video check ins, a real bonus. I can’t recommend highly enough if you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family!”
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.
“Brandon was great to work with and took good care of our cat. Our house was also in good shape and as we left it. . Quixo was happy and healthy when we returned from our trip. I would hire Brandon again and recommend him to others .”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life and have always had a pet (cat or dog) until this past year. I'd love to take care of your fur baby like it's my own! I work remotely a lot which means my schedule is pretty flexible (lots of availability during weekdays and weekends!). I am an active person and I love to take pups on hiking and walking adventures, as well as spend lots of time playing and goofing off and, of course, snuggling (if that is their thing). I'm highly professional, organized and responsible, and care deeply for others, no matter the breed. :) I'm happy to follow any special instructions you have for your pet(s)and will follow them to the last detail! I also LOVE cats! **You'll probably notice that there isn't a lot of booking activity on here. That's because most of my sitting comes from word of mouth outside of this platform. If you're curious at all, please reach out!**
“Melissa sat our four cats while we were out of town for the weekend and she did an excellent job. She was communicative and she was attentive to our pets. We’ve always had some minor issues with them at meal time; Melissa is the one who figured out a viable solution. We so appreciate her effort and care. We’ll definitely be calling on Melissa again and have no hesitation in recommending her for your pet sitting needs.”
About: Experience with both senior cats/dogs and young cats and dogs. Currently own a senior dog (medium), but I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I currently work as a vet assistant weekends, and sometimes have class during the week. Best thing to do is reach out and see when I am available! I appreciate information about your animals routine (wether they are crated at night, times they usually go out, high enery, low energy, feeding schedule, and other things that will allow me to give the most thorough care I can) so I can properly care for them. Also please give me a heads up about food or toy aggression before hand (it doesn't necessarily mean I'll deny service I just want to be warned so I can be extra cautious)
“Sadie is so caring and understanding. One of our cats is very fearful of people but he seemed to settle right in. She was also flexible with our travel plans which just made the whole experience less stressful. Sadie is just a super nice person to talk to and get to know. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
