About: Hi, I have taken care of my own pets and other people's pets for years. I moved to Mid coast ME 5 yrs ago from Nantucket. I am also a professional gardener, so if you need watering etc while your away. I am currently self employed, so I have a flexible schedule. We can figure out a plan for your pet care. Look forward in planning w you. I have a dog Elka and 2 cats. Elka is easy going dog who loves other dogs and cats. I think the best way is to have the dogs meet and see how things go w them before a care schedule can begin. We have also traveled and cared for other dogs in their homes and everyone gets along.
“My dog Suki had a great second overnight stay with Lindsay! Lindsay updated me with pictures of Suki playing with her new friends, and Suki was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. Thanks so much, Lindsay!”
“I whole-heartedly recommend Pat for pet-sitting services! She is a dedicated and deeply caring person who understands dogs and their psyches very well. She also has excellent communication skills and patience! She went above and beyond during my dogs' stay with her to ensure their physical and - equally if not more important - psychological well-being.”
“My pup was well taken care of. She was happy and tired when we picked her up and she made some new friends, too! Very good communication and sent us many photos while we were gone.”
“Colleen is amazing. This was the first time we boarded our young dog. We don’t board often because our dog can be high energy! Colleen provided lots of opportunities for exercise and play. She also sent updates with pictures. It allowed us to relax while away. If you are looking for a positive environment with lots of options for movement and play, she is the right person!”
“I was and am very impressed with Jessica and her family for how she took our baby, Miss Gia, in. This was the very 1st time Gia had stayed without us. Gia came home very happy to see us and we'll taken care of. I also LOVED the communication Jess had with us. The pictures, the updates, honestly all of it. We WILL use her again, if she'll have us. A HUGE THANK YOU. ?”
“Ann was so amazing with Ollie! You can really tell that working with dogs isn’t just something Ann likes to do on the side, but it’s something she’s really passionate about. I felt so comfortable knowing Ollie was safe with her, and she sent me tons of photos and updates, which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future!”
“Jacki fully understands puppies and has a special magic with them. She is kind and compassionate and and our Goldendoodle she had great fun playing with her and her two Goldens. Perfectly safe yard with a big field for running. And, extra bonus, she sent us pix of our puppy while we were away. Five stars for sure!”

“Molly was great. She made us feel very comfortable about leaving Millie in her home. She sent us pics while we were dining of Millie which really helped as this was our first time using this service. Thanks Molly!”
“Elizabeth and her husband are definitely dog people! She was excellent with my dog, who was difficult to find a sitter for (he currently has a knee injury, is dog reactive, and warms up slowly). I really appreciated the questions she asked about my dog's habits and schedule so his stay was as comfortable as possible (she even allowed him to sleep under their bed). I also appreciated that she only cares for dogs from one family at a time. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout the week. I would definitely book a stay with her again!”
“Lacey gave Tonks love and enrichment; I could sense that Tonks felt relaxed and cared for during their time together. We definitely would choose Lacey, and her family, for a future dog-date!”
