About: I grew up on a hobby farm surrounded by animals of all kinds — chickens, ducks, peacocks, pheasants, quail, falcons, rabbits, and even hedgehogs. That upbringing gave me a deep respect for the unique personalities and needs of every creature. Beyond farm life, I’ve raised a litter of puppies and have hands‑on experience with housebreaking and basic training. I’m also something of a magician when it comes to administering pills, making sure pets get the care they need without stress. In addition to animal care, I’m a former nanny, which taught me patience, attentiveness, and the importance of tailoring care to each individual — skills I bring to every pet I look after. Today, I’m a proud pet parent to Piper (4‑year‑old border collie), Kith (2‑year‑old tabby cat), and Tinky Winky (1‑year‑old tortoiseshell cat). I love long walks, fetch, and tug‑of‑war, and I always come prepared — yes, with my own poop bags! No matter the species or temperament, I strive to tailor my care to each animal’s personality, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a full‑time student with all classes online, my schedule is extremely flexible and allows me to prioritize pet care. Currently, my spouse and I are sharing a car, which means I’m unavailable on weekdays from 1–7 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m happy to accommodate morning, evening, and weekend visits. This arrangement is temporary — once my car is repaired, my availability will expand even further. I’ll always communicate clearly and confirm bookings promptly so you can feel confident your pets’ routines are supported without interruption. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I bring the same attentiveness I honed as a former nanny and lifelong animal caregiver to every visit. Whether it’s securing doors and gates, keeping a close eye during play, or ensuring medications are given properly, I take every precaution to protect your pets and your home. I believe trust is built through consistency and respect. I follow your instructions carefully, provide regular updates, and treat your space with the same care I give my own. To give you complete peace of mind, I practice a “triple‑check” approach — reviewing every detail to be absolutely sure all is as it should be. Looking ahead, I would love to expand my services to include boarding and in‑home pet care. My home features a large fenced‑in yard for safe outdoor play and a guest room perfect for pets who may prefer more privacy. Because I have my own pets, their safety and comfort will always remain paramount — so it will be essential to ensure that all animals mesh well before welcoming them into the space. Every animal deserves an environment where they feel secure and understood. My goal is to create a safe, stress‑free experience tailored to each pet’s personality, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands.

About: Hello! I’ve owned all sorts of animals my whole life. Growing up I’ve taken care of farm animals to your everyday house pets. I have 2 years of professional experience with animals. I worked in a boarding facility that allowed me to work with dogs of all aggressions, all sizes, medical issues and those needing assistance. I now spend my time working at my local shelter and loving on my dogs and cats I’m currently working part time, which leaves me plenty of time with your fur babies! Let’s find a time that works best for all of us! I live within a 5 min drive of a dog park, I have dogs of my own who love other dogs and cats. I have extra crates in my home if needed to crate your pup. With cats I have a section of my home dedicated to their feeding and bathroom needs. I have spare toys and plenty of treats for your fur baby!

“Kaitlyn went above and beyond for Seth and his walk visits. She reported what Seth did on the walks, wasn't afraid to ask questions/share concerns, and also helped out with some allergy reactions he was having on his skin. We also had some flight delays and she was able to help and make sure Seth was taken care of until we returned. Great communication and loved the videos of Seth's interaction with her children. There is no doubt that Kaitlyn will be requested again (hopefully some sunny days). Thank you so much!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. I helped my grandmother with her pet sitting service for many years and spent countless hours volunteering in a groom/ boarding shop. I am also the proud owner of Megan's Pet Care LLC.I currently have two fur baby of my own that loves to play and have company. I service clients on rover and thru my personal business. I offer meet and greets but are not required. All pups have their own personalities and may take time for them to come out. Our home is well equipped to give your pup their space if they need it or a safe space to play with others. I Understand that emergencies happen so I always try to have availability at any time of the day that you may need. I also offer pick up and drop off services as well.***I DO NOT TAKE PETS THAT ARE ESCAPE RISK OR AGGRESSIVE*** I am a stay at home mom so I can adjust to any schedule your pup is currently doing at home. My job is to make your pup feel just as comfortable in my home as they are in yours . My yard is not fenced but closed off by privacy hedges so dogs do not have any distractions when outside. We do have runners outside for the dogs to use and they are never left unattended outside. Dogs have full access to my yard and home . I do not crate unless requested I do have all sizes on hand for use. We offer bathing , daily walks, pictures and 24/7 communication access .

“Kaitlyn was prompt and did a great job following the procedures in place that are necessary to keep both of my boys safe!”

“Alex did great with my dogs! She made time for a meet and greet with them so they would feel comfortable when she came. Loved the updates and photos of their walk. I will be contacting Alex to walk them again in the future!”

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and had a golden retriever growing up. I hope to one day get another dog. I will take good care of your furry friends! I am a teacher and mornings are not generally an option but I’m free in the afternoons and evenings and on the weekends, can be flexible! I will always make sure that your pet’s environment is safe while you are away and that all food and water and toys are available! Will give them extra love free of charge!

About: I have 3 energetic pups, two came to us as puppies and one was a rescue that required lots of patience to get to be her happy go lucky self. I have helped care for a variety of my families animals for 15+ years. I am very comfortable with animals and love dogs especially! I’d have my own rescue if I could. I am always spending my free time taking my dogs to go on walks or find a place to swim. I can certainly make some free time to add some extra pups in the mix! My dogs are spoiled at home but also have structure. They have a routine of eating once in the morning and once in the evening but their bowls are left down for them all day if they choose to not eat it all at the time it is given. They have access to water all day and yes they are allowed on the furniture. They have lots of toys to play with and there are gates the separate off certain sections of the house if they need to be split for any reason (such as if one needed medication or if company were to come over, etc). They have the command “bed time” or “go to bed” at night and they go to their designated sleep spot. Two sleep in kennels, one with the door open and one with the door closed, and one sleeps on a dog bed. They get lots of outside play time!

About: As a lifelong dog owner, I know the importance of feeling confidence in your pet’s care while you are away – for the day or for weeks. I grew up with German Shepards, Labrador Retrievers, Weimaraners, and of course your traditional mutts. I’m comfortable with medium and large breeds with varying degrees of energy and structure needs. In adulthood I’ve dedicated myself to seniors and pups with special needs. My current pack is all neutered males - Riley (12), Vinnie (17), Gilroy (4, Cerebellar Aplasia), and Louie (4, Blind). Everyone in the pack is dog friendly and more importantly I know them well and how to navigate introducing new members. Pack management is a critical and advantageous skill I live in a single family detached home with a large fenced in yard. The dogs are allowed on the furniture. I have extra crates, cots, dog beds, and toys. With a traditional cape style, I can also keep pack members separate if needed, especially at mealtime to keep everyone safe. My home and I have been approved by three different reputable rescues in the last 3 years. I have established relationships with not only my local vet, Dirigo, but also specialists at Maine Veterinary Medical Center. I have experience with high needs behavioral and physical pups. Though I do not think taking in an aggressive dog into the pack for sitting is a good idea, I am comfortable and understand dogs with anxiety that might need some extra time or care. I have experience with dogs paralyzed in the back end, cerebellar hypoplasia (wobbly), cerebellar aplasia (no balance), hydrocephalus, blindness, senior needs, puppy needs and training. In the last year my pack has included three more pups (may two rest in peace, and one continue to live his best life with his forever mom) and so I open my home to boarding knowing that my current boys are already okay with new members. If you have any questions please reach out! I work from home five days a week. I work from home full-time and can navigate my schedule most days by the needs of the pack. Without a doubt they can go outside whenever they need. At most during the week I could leave the house from 1-3 hours. I will sometimes need to leave the house for 2-6 hours at a time especially on weekends, but can arrange any accommodation that makes your pup comfortable – free, crate, room etc. All dogs are allowed on the couch and my bed, though not all will sleep on the bed at night. I make sure to have a dog bed available for each pup in the house and have crate options too if individual space makes your pup feel more comfortable. The house is set up so that all living is on the first floor, so there are only two stairs into the home and two stairs off of the deck. During the warmer months I have a dog door for free access to the fenced in yard. However, in the winter months I maintain taking the dogs out at regular intervals. All dogs will be fed safely alone so no issues are allowed to develop. All stairs inside are blocked off either by baby gate or doors (for my blind boy). Pack management is key to safety and with lots of experience I know I can navigate it well.

About: I love being outdoors and exploring, so I would be happy to take your best friend wherever their heart desires. I have always grown up with pets, and I currently have two pups, Kona and Angie. Safety and following owner's requests are always my number one priority, followed by fun! My availability fluctuates some on the weekends, but I currently own my own business and attend college online making my schedule very flexible and accommodating during the weekdays. Ensuring safety and trust for your pets is top priority. In my home we take measures to create hazard-free spaces. Outside of my home, adapting to your pets environment is their top need, and my main focus. No doubt, your pet will receive the dedicated love and care they deserve.

“Melissa was great! She walked our two 70lb pit bulls Skye and Blue 4 days in a row. She was great communicating the times she was going to walk them and showing up on time. She sent pictures each walk with the map and distance of the walks. We would definitely hire Melissa again to walk Skye and Blue. Highly recommended!, Thank you Melissa!”

About: Having previously worked at a humane shelter and a doggy daycare, I understand that dogs require a lot of care, love, and patience! I'm pretty good at reading their body language and I love putting in the extra work to get shy or reactive dogs to trust me. I will do everything I can to make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for! My schedule is wide open to housesit, dog walk/enrichment, and check-ins whenever it's needed. Let me know what you and your pet need, and we can schedule something! I will do anything I can to make sure your pet is comfortable, entertained, and loved while you are away. You'll return to see the house just as you left it (with absolutely no judgment if it's cleaned or cluttered) and a happy pet!

About: I have cared for both dogs and cats and I will care for yours like it is my own at all times so I hope you choose to hire me I am retired with plenty of free time for your animals and I would love to care for them like they are mine to care for I have a yard and a lovely home and I will always leash your dog when outside for safety and I like to kennel dogs when they sleep at night

About: I have been taking care of animals for friends and family since I was a teenager and have always loved it! I am able to give insulin to dogs or cats as well as other medications! I am well versed in dogs of all ages as well as temperaments. I am in the process of learning grooming so can do basic grooms, not currently taking full grooms. I worked for a pet care business for well over a year, so have experience with multiple environments and circumstances! I currently work full time but I have an hour long lunch break and availability before and after work, as well as weekends! My mother takes care of my pets when I’m not home so it’s nice to get out and help other pet owners. I have lots of experience with all types of animals so I am comfortable with almost anything. I like to do my best to keep your pets routine as stable as possible to make the transition less stressful while you’re away from home.
