“Alyssa was wonderful! She came by the day before we needed her to meet Bella and go over everything. She was extremely communicative the whole day and took excellent care of our baby. I highly recommend her!”

About: I have always been an avid dog lover, and have been blessed by the bond I’ve formed with my own dogs through the years. I love learning more about dog behavior and am constantly striving to learn how to be the best pet parent I can be. I have experience with puppies, reactive dogs, and senior dogs needing medication. I will treat your dog ad if they are my own: being loving, protective, and reinforcing training, if wanted. As long as we communicate, I’m sure I’ll be able to provide a wonderful respite for you and your pups. I currently WFH, making my schedule fairly flexible. I ensure that the pups in my care are getting their desired exercise needs. I will generally only be gone for a maximum of 4 hours. I have an unfenced yard away from any traffic. Whenever the dogs are outside, I’m close enough keep a watchful eye and ear out if they ever need support.
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.
About: Hi, I’m Lindsey! Over the past 25years, I’ve had the joy of caring for pets, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. I believe pets are family, and finding the right person to look after them while you’re away is crucial. I take this responsibility seriously and approach every pet with the same love and care I give to my own. Caring is embedded in my nature and when I'm not loving on my pets or caring for others fur babies, you can find me working as a nurse. I'm currently the owner of a special needs dog and feel comfortable caring for those pets that need a little extra care. Ask me about my pet wedding service I offer! As a nurse, I have a flexible schedule that allows me the freedom to have days off with no work obligations so I can give my full attention to caring for your pet. I know that ensuring your pet has a safe environment with someone they trust is of utmost importance, so a meet and greet prior to confirming services is required. I tailor my approach based on the unique needs of each pet and their owner. When caring for pets in my home, I offer a safe and comfortable environment with ample space to play, opportunities to potty and protected sleep space. My pets are used to a structured environment, which allows them + visiting pets to settle into the new arrangement with ease. In your home, I focus on maintaining the familiar routines and surroundings that keep your pets comfortable. I follow any specific instructions you provide and adapt to your pet's habits and preferences, ensuring they feel secure and loved. My experience has equipped me with the skills to accommodate a variety of needs, whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, or providing extra attention and care. Overall, my goal is to provide seamless care for your pet so they feel safe, secure and calm while their owner is away. Daily updates with pics or videos will be sent to ensure the owner feels safe, secure and calm while they are away as well! Prior to your departure, a plan for emergencies will be discussed and I will ensure I have all necessary phone numbers and contact information.
“Thank you for taking such good care of our cats! This was our first experience with Rover and we could not have asked for more. Everything was done perfectly and we were able to enjoy our time away without worry. We will definitely be looking to book you again in the future!”
About: I've had cats, dogs, geckos, and fish since I was little. Animals have always given me a reason to smile. Making them feel nurtured and loved is what makes pet relationships so meaningful. I miss my dog at home, and I would be honored to meet and care for yours whenever you need a loving sitter! I’m working part time this summer, so I have the opportunity for a couple walks a day, most days! House sitting, walking, and visits are easy for me to manage with my schedule, so reach out to schedule a visit! I will gladly go for walks and play with pets. I enjoy learning what games they like best and playing those. I also won't shy away from scratches, pets, and cuddles, because we all need them from time to time!
“Carol took Nora while we went to the botanical garden. She played with her and kept her safe so we could enjoy our time in the gardens. I wish we could take her with us every time we travel ?”
“Jessica was great. She accepted our request at the very last minute and travelled further outside of her area to check on our dog. While our dog refused to go outside for her, she was in constant contact and was very sweet to our super nervous, stubborn dog. We appreciated her stopping by!”
“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!”

She came over before the actual day I needed her, to go over the "routine" etc. While she was with Bud she was super communicative and checked in with photos and texts. Bud was well taken care for :). She wa also flexible about timing. Would definitely work with Selena again!!”
About: Hi!! I grew up with dogs, a pit lab and a yorkie, and I used to clean dog kennels and feed them at the pope humane animal shelter! And I recently a few months ago did a two week house sitting/ dog sitting job! I am a huge fan of dogs :) I’m a recent college student who has always just wanted to take care of people’s pets while at college, unfortunately it’s much more difficult up there, but now I’m home and I get the chance to see others pets more easily! It fits in super well currently, I’m available usually 24/7 just need to know at least a few days in advance! I make sure that I keep my eye on animals, especially puppies/kittens. I know they can be all over the place, I like to stick near them and make sure I have available numbers in case something were to go wrong.
“Olivia was so great! Meet and greet process went very well, we have 4 cats and all were cared for exactly as asked for. Olivia even went above and beyond and grabbed an extra bag of dry food from the store for our cats gravity feeder because they devoured it long before they should have. Very grateful and will definitely be booking with Olivia again!”
