Pet Sitting in Deer Isle

“I reached out to Gillian with an emergency and she was able to stop by and check on my babies. To be able to not worry about them is priceless Gillian to the rescue”

“Chloe was great - she sent very detailed messages and pics each day and the cats really seemed to like her. We came home and they acted like we hadn't even been gone (because Chloe took such good care of them). Chloe was lovely and we'd definitely use her again in future!”

About: Hello! I'm Ashley. I am 34 years old. I am from Stuart, FL. I am working in Bar Harbor for the summer from April to October. I have always been an animal lover and if I could afford a farm and have every type of animal in it... I would. I have owned, dogs, fish, and birds. I have had dogs most of my life. I had a Jack Russell who lived to be 11 years old named Romeo...He was a ball of energy, he had eye problems and needed drops daily. I also had a Rat Terrier named Oliver, we bought him at a year old. He lived to be 14 years old. Most recently my sister currently has a mini golden doodle, who is 4 years old. I loved taking my dogs on the trails in the parks. If I didn’t travel so much, I would love a dog of my own. I work seasonal contract jobs outside the National parks, mainly in the summer season. I go walking everyday & I would love to bring your pup with me. I am renting a place with other people so I would have to go to their home. I am very attentive and can play with them in the yard or whatever is asked.

“Constance went WAY above and beyond for my fosters! She was patient and stayed over her time with Amelia who is a bit skiddish and reserved to help her get more comfortable. THEN!! Asked if she could help me pooper scoop!! I'm keeping her for all things dogs. Even offered her services at home with her dogs to help socialize my puppies!!! If there were 10 stars she would get them all.”

“Jessica was amazing! I am a new “dog mom,” to my 10 week old puppy! I reached out to Jessica to check on him during the day while I was at work. This was the first day he had been left alone since I picked him up at 8 weeks, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to check on him! She had amazing communication throughout the entire day and was incredibly flexible when I needed to change some plans at the end of the day! I felt much better being at work with Jessica looking after him! She made the whole process easy and relieved a lot of stress and worry I had! Highly recommend!”

About: I love animals! Cats, dogs, horses, pigs, and peacocks, I've cared for them all. Let me show you why I love animals, and more importantly, why they love me! I currently work remotely, so my schedule is flexible. Let's chat and see how we can align your pet care needs with my work schedule. My own pet is a huge part of my life. He's spent his 15 years of life with very few days without me. My care for him will be mirrored in my care for your own furry family member.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life—both my own and others'. My most recent dog, Dozer (a dopey 70 lb pit mix who looked like a cow), was with me for 9 amazing years. I’ve regularly walked and pet-sat for friends, coworkers, and even former customers from my barista days. I’ve lived with both large and small breeds and feel confident handling a range of personalities and energy levels—from mellow seniors to spirited puppies. I genuinely love spending time with dogs! I'm calm, patient, and attentive to each dog's unique needs—whether administering meds, sticking to a specific feeding routine, or offering extra playtime and affection. I also love being outdoors, so if your dog enjoys adventures, they’re in good hands! Don't worry, they'll get a tick check before I drop them off! I work full-time but offer evening walks during the week and full availability on weekends. I'm also available for house sitting any night of the week, and always make sure your dog feels safe, seen, and cared for in your absence. I work full-time on weekdays, so I’m available for dog walking or playtime after 5 PM on weekdays. On weekends, I have full availability and love spending the day outside with pups—whether it’s long walks, hikes, or just hanging out and relaxing. I’m also available for house sitting any night of the week. I’m committed to fitting pet care seamlessly into my routine so your dog gets the attention, exercise, and love they deserve while you’re away or busy. When caring for pets, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure the environment is secure—checking gates, doors, and any escape routes—so your dog stays safe. I follow your instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special care needs. During walks and adventures, I keep your dog on a leash unless you’ve specified otherwise, and I’m vigilant about avoiding hazards like busy roads, toxic plants, or wildlife. I treat every dog with patience, respect, and kindness, making sure they feel calm and loved whether we’re at home or out exploring. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands.

“Geoffery is the best pet sitter I have ever had. He sent great pics and updates, my dogs and cat really enjoyed spending time with him. I would absolutely use his services every time I need a pet sitter. I can’t say enough good things about his care of my peta.”

Dana R.

“Kelly was wonderful! The day before our scheduled walk, she came out to meet my dog at the campground we were staying. This gave me a chance to see how she interacted with my dog. She was so calm and gentle with him. I knew he was in very good hands with Kelly. I highly recommend Kelly!”

Jeanette R.

About: I am the dad to a crazy and highly energetic 2 year old dog, and have loved dogs all my life. I am good at asserting control, and love playing and giving them all the attention and love I work remote, so I have lots of availability during the week to be able to help take care of your dog. I also have very few meetings, so scheduling shouldn’t be a problem It is important to me that I perform exactly what the owner wants me to do in terms of walking, what the dog is allowed to do etc… I will make sure the dog is fully loved and attended to

“Amanda was professional and friendly, arriving promptly and providing regular feedback during our absence. My two dogs were very well cared for and enjoyed her visit thoroughly. Amanda is what an experienced pet sitter should be; we highly recommend her services!”

“Abigail was wonderful! She was responsive, accommodating, and took great care of our dog. We were able to have peace of mind and enjoy our day! I highly recommend her!”

About: I love dogs (and cats) more than anything! I am happy to treat your fur babies to the finest care during the day, overnight, while you are on vacation, or once in awhile for walks, hikes, check ins, at your place or mine! A popular request this summer has been from folks on visiting who would like me to day sit at their campground/rv/hotel/air bnb while they enjoy the park, biking, boating or going out to eat. For boarding, My husband and I have a wonderful centrally located home in the Acadia region off the island. We have a fenced in yard and can take the stress out of leaving your pets while on vacation. Pick up and drop off can be arranged at the head of the island if requested. Wedding or event coming up? I can be your pets chaperon then too, just ask :) Need to exercise your pup? Mini day hikes available too- custom fit for your pups comfort. This summer I am taking a sabbatical to my career job which means more hiking, walks and freedom to spend time with your pet- with flexible scheduling :) While my home offers a wonderful spacious lawn and garden area for the pups with a secure 4' ht enclosed fence, pets are never left unattended in the area. Happy to board with your routine in mind in terms of crating or free range of our home and total pampering. Pet sitting at your home is welcome too!

“Rosie took good care of my very old, sick cat. She administered multiple medications and came to the house two times a day during a holiday weekend”

Gina C.

About: Beside always having family dogs and other pets growing up I’ve pet sat for friends, professors and even my own personal dog trainer. I love connecting with pets and helping make their days as fulfilled as they deserve. I work a very flexible five days a week job for a friend’s business. I generally have off Tuesdays and Wednesdays weekly and would love to add some more dogs into that routine. I won’t be able to care for any pets in my own home currency due to roommate preferences. But in your home I’d be happy to follow whatever guidelines you have to make your pet comfortable. I love working on basic training to support your current efforts if desired or just throwing the ball as part of their normal routine.

“Brianna was great with my 2 dogs and cat. My dogs can be nervous but they warmed up to her right away.”

Dana R.

“I don't think I could possibly ask for a better person to watch my beloved cat. He is a spoiled pampered creature and Megan treated him like he was her own. I felt so comfortable knowing she was with him. As long as she continues offering this service she will certainly be my 'go-to' cat sitter. I am truly grateful. My only complaint is that there are only 5 stars to give her, I'd like to tack on at least a few extras. :)”

Laurie F.

“The absolutely best. Detailed and responsible. Takes care of my Martini as if she's her own. Couldn't be happier with Chyna's services!”

Laura C.

About: I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life, always contributed to taking care of them! I love pet sitting, whether it’s for family, friends or just someone who needs some help! I’m currently working full time but with a job with very flexible hours and most days getting out in the earlier afternoon! The job is more of a work when needed. (I work for a vacation rental agency) I don’t always work everyday, and can adjust hours if needed! I would care for your pets as if they were my own. I would ask questions before I started caring for your pet so I could give them the best care possible, and do the job you’d like me to do.🙂

About: I’m a dog lover and have owned several dogs throughout my life - a cocker spaniel, 2 English setters, one chocolate lab and a golden retriever. Right now I’m single, live alone and I like to travel a lot. But I enjoy dog companions and want to make myself available to help you with your dog sitting needs. I’m a daily runner so I can take your dog on runs or long walks. I live near a pond where dogs can swim, and in general I live in a safe and quiet neighborhood that is suitable for all types of dogs. I’m also a health nut, so I will only feed your dog good food and/or whatever is required of their diet. Thanks for considering me, I would love to take care of your dog when you need some extra help.
