Pet Sitting in Daytonville

About: Hi, I’m Emily. I grew up with all kinds of pets and have always had animals in my life, so taking care of them just comes naturally to me. I’m starting school for radiology in September, so my schedule is pretty open right now and I’d love to help however I can. I’ve taken care of pets for family, friends, and neighbors for years, and I genuinely love being around animals. I’m reliable, patient, and careful to follow any instructions exactly as given. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities—whether they’re energetic, shy, or need a little extra care. I’m also respectful of your space and always aim to leave your home just as I found it. Communication is important to me, and I’ll always keep you updated so you feel at ease while you’re away. I have a very flexible schedule right now with full availability during the week and weekends, which allows me to focus on providing reliable pet care. Once I begin school this fall, I’ll continue to offer care on evenings and weekends. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or some one-on-one attention, I’m happy to help when you need it. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’m a pet owner myself and have animals at home, so I truly understand how much they mean to you. I always make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I follow instructions carefully, stick to routines, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m also respectful of your home and aim to make the whole process as easy and stress-free as possible for both you and your pets.

About: Hi! My name is Jessica and I would love to take care of your pet while you’re away. I have unofficially been a pet sitter for several years. I have been fortunate to have friends and coworkers ask me to help with their pets and since then word of mouth has given me the chance to pet sit a lot more, which I love! I have always loved animals and have had the chance to watch and help out with many dogs, cats, chickens, lizards, and even a couple horses. I have two cats who are my world and I intend to make your pet as much of a priority my own. If you were to hire me I would make sure your pet(s) have a schedule as close to normal as possible. I have no issues staying over with your dog or cat. My favorite thing to do while I dog sit is take them for walks, so that is not an issue at all and I will always make sure your dog is well secured and watched throughout any time outside. I am typically busy Monday - Friday from 7:30 AM - 5 PM which is why I said that I can’t be available full time during weekdays, but I am free all day during weekends. I have no issues with staying over or popping in several times a day if that is what you prefer. Safety for your pet is my #1 goal, but I also am there to spend time with them, play, and take them for walks. I know leaving your pet is stressful for you and them, so I always try to distract them and make sure they get lots of love and attention. I also am more than happy to provide a lot of pictures and updates to ease your mind as well! Unfortunately, my apartment building does not allow pets, not even to visit, so I have no opportunity to board your pet.

“Anastasia was excellent! I had last minute plans out of town and she was very accommodating to board Maui. Maui was so comfortable and had a great time playing in the yard space with her new dog friend! Anastasia sent me lots of pictures each day of Maui! She even started to train her to sit on command. I highly recommend Anastasia, she is an outstanding caregiver! I will be using her again in the future!”

About: Hi! I’m Kendal—an energetic, dog-loving sitter and future veterinarian with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether I’m walking high-energy dogs, comforting anxious rescues, or supporting senior pups with extra TLC, I always bring patience, empathy, and a vet-bound level of attentiveness. I’ve worked with animals through vet clinics, rescue organizations, and educational programs like Project Terrapin, giving me a deep understanding of canine behavior and health. I adapt to your dog’s needs—whether that means fetch in the yard, calm companionship, or help with routine care. Every dog has their own personality, and I’m here to meet them right where they are—with enthusiasm, respect, and a whole lot of love. I currently work off-site Monday–Friday from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM, which allows me to offer consistent, high-quality pet care during early mornings, evenings, and weekends. I currently provide pet care in clients’ homes, as I do not board animals in my own residence. My focus is on offering attentive, reliable care that keeps pets comfortable and supported in their familiar environment. In Your Home (Sitting and Overnight Stays): When caring for pets in their own home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible. This includes timely feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of companionship. I keep your home clean and your pet happy, providing regular updates so you can travel with peace of mind. During overnight stays, I ensure your pet receives care in the evening, overnight, and morning, with a walk or check-in before I leave for work and attentive care once I return. Drop-In Visits and Dog Walking: For walks and drop-ins, I tailor the visit to your pet’s needs—whether that means an energizing walk, quiet company, or extra attention for nervous or senior pets. I make sure they have clean food and water, a potty break, and interaction that matches their personality and preferences. With a strong foundation in pre-veterinary studies and years of hands-on animal care experience, I offer thoughtful, dependable care for every pet I meet.

“Gabriella has been a true blessing for us this holiday. Having two senior pets with special medical needs, we are constantly worried about them. We were very nervous to leave home, but Gabriella was truly caring, professional, and dedicated. Upon our arrival home, we found Christmas presents for our babies waiting on the table. We are so grateful for the wonderful care our pets received from Gabriella and highly recommend her!”

“We’ve used Rebecca a couple of times for drop in visits. We’ve found her reliable and attentive, also quick to respond to any questions or communicating any concerns.”

“Riley was great to work with - we even had a tricky lockout situation while we were away and Riley worked with us every step of the way to get it resolved. Strongly recommend Riley.”

“We were extremely happy with Nina watching Gunther. We were at ease knowing she would be here looking after him. We loved the pictures and updates we got. Nina made us feel very confident that Gunther was in good hands.”

About: Animals of all shapes and sizes hold a special place in my heart and I try to do everything imaginable to give them the happiest life they deserve. I have previously watched family friends dogs, some with special needs and have been asked back time and time again. I take my responsibilities very seriously when caring for other people’s pets and will treat them as if they are my own! I am working on my own home-based bakery (I make pup cakes too!) and just love being able to help wherever possible! Your pet will be given everything they need to live the happiest life!! I currently work full time at a local daycare 7-4 and typically have my weekends mostly free. Sometimes I have bakery events here and there but can always make room for a few drop ins here and there! I can adapt very well to whatever your animals are used to! I know my pets are very used to a schedule and it’s always easiest to keep on that schedule!

About: I live in Waterville and would love to watch your fur babies. I have had a dog my whole life mostly labs but I really enjoy dogs and watching their interactions with humans and with other pets. My pups go everywhere with me especially on hikes they are troopers. Wouldn't mind having some other dogs to accompany us. I am currently working full time from home with a flexible schedule. I take my dogs for walks around the neighborhood on breaks and lunches. I have a large back yard with a lot of room to play ball or to fetch. I have other friendly playful dogs that would love to have some play mates.

“As a professional dog walker myself for 23 years, I was pretty picky about who I wanted to walk our new puppy on the weekends. Brenna was prompt and enthusiastic, and handled our Rottweiler puppy's antics easily during the meet and greet. It's great knowing we can depend on Brenna to give our puppy a break while we run errands.”

I also love to spend time outdoors and would be thrilled to have a four-legged companion to accompany me on my hikes. As a bonus, I have played tennis since I was 7 years old, so I am an expert when it comes to playing fetch with tennis balls.
