Nicole was absolutely amazing this weekend with our orange tabby boy. She checked on him twice a day, stayed for the full 30 minutes, and provided the best updates and pictures with each visit. I get so sad and anxious leaving my fur baby, but definitely felt relief each time she checked on him. She was the best, and we will definitely use her again! -Abbey

Oralee was wonderful with our senior dog, Gertie. Her drop-in visits were such a huge help when we first moved to Maine, and we're grateful for her caring and attentive nature. We would definitely use her services again!

About: I’ve been passionate about caring for dogs and cats since I was a teenager. Growing up, I frequently pet sat for family members and close family friends, building a strong foundation in understanding pets’ individual needs and personalities. Over the years, I’ve gained professional experience working at several doggy daycares, where I managed groups of dogs, ensured their safety and comfort, and helped them enjoy playtime and socialization. I’ve also provided in-home pet sitting for multiple clients over the past few years, handling everything from daily feedings, walks, and medication administration to play, cuddles, and lots of love. I truly enjoy forming bonds with each pet and giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet sitting is my full-time profession, which means I offer flexible and open availability to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s needs. Whether you require drop-in visits or daily walks I’m here to provide reliable support—often with little notice. Your peace of mind and your pet’s happiness are my top priorities! When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while maintaining your home exactly as you left it. Upon arrival, I follow your detailed instructions to the letter—feeding schedules, medication administration, walking routes, play preferences, and any special routines. I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection tailored to your pet’s personality and energy level, whether that’s energetic fetch sessions, gentle cuddles, or quiet companionship. I send regular updates with photos and/or videos so you can see your pet is happy and relaxed. I also keep an eye on your pet’s health and behavior, and I’m prepared to contact you or an emergency vet if anything seems off. For your home, I’m respectful and tidy: I secure doors and windows, bring in mail/packages if requested, water plants, take out trash, and leave everything clean and organized. My goal is for you to return to a happy pet and a home that feels untouched—giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have been around pets all my life. Volunteered as a foster mom for the humane society and took home pets that needed medication given to them. Been around active dogs like Dalmatians and Australian Shepherds as well as older, docile dogs. Did puppy training classes when I raised my Australian shepherd. I work full time so if you request a booking with me I may send you back a message with the hours I work during that time frame. I've also lowered my rates below Rovers "suggested" numbers and made it to where you can "potentially" book me last minute (If my schedule works for you, obviously). I would love to be that sitter that is helping out someone who maybe had a sitter cancel at the last minute or you had an unexpected event happen and didn't really have it in the budget to hire a pet sitter on top of everything else. Or you are just a frugal gal/guy like me and don't think it should break the bank to hire someone to watch your fur children 😊 I can crate your pets when needed, take them on walks, can administer medications if needed. I work well with lists or rules set out to follow for your pets best care in your home.

Nour is a gem! She is an experienced cat caregiver, but we feel very comfortable having her look after our dogs, too! She sent us wonderful pictures of our kitties during her recent drop-ins. Even our most shy cat came out to play while she was here, which really impressed us. We feel very fortunate to have found Nour, and so relieved that we have found someone so professional and caring to look after our kiddos while we are away!

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 8. I had dogs, cats, reptiles and guinea pigs. I work for a vet clinic and is certified. I do have another job so I will be doing this part time after classes. I will accept people as my work schedule shows me what days I work. I do have a fenced in yard but I have a small Chiweenie who is still afraid of other dogs. But I can take your baby on a walk down at the Pelion park or peach tree rock. Please let me know if your dog is okay for car rides.

About: I have been in the veterinary medicine field for 9 years. Starting in general practice to ER to now Oncology (while still picking up ER shifts). I am well rounded in pets needs and know what to look out for should your pet need medical attention. I am comfortable giving any and all medications for dogs, cats, reptiles, and small mammals. I work Monday-Thursday and am free Friday-Sundays for undived attention for your pets. but can do some after work walks during the week. My dog is with me most times and he loves other dogs and is also great with cats! ( I have 3 cats at home) but should you prefer me leave him at home, that is also okay. I have a crate at home and also a spare bedroom should they need a quiet space as well as big yard (but not fenced so will still have to ve leashed) I can also come to you for day stays which is the preferred method. Depending on the pets demeanor and size, I can pet sit at home (if they are cat friendly) or pet sit in the comfort of your home.

Had her come check in on my sweet orange kitty for a few days around Christmas, she was outstanding! Adrianna went above and beyond and my normally timid cat was extremely comfortable and happy with her. She checked in twice a day and gave him everything he needed and more. An added bonus was that she also did some dishes that were left in the sink! Couldn’t ask for a better sitter and I highly recommend her!

Adrianna did a great job taking care of my cat. She did drop-in visits twice a day. She gave kitty her wet food, replenished the dry food, cleaned the litter box, and played with her to keep her from feeling lonely. Often, Nera will hide from strangers, but she felt very comfortable with Adrianna. I will definitely book with her again. Also, she met my shepherd-mix dog when she came for a meet and greet, and she had a good rapport with him too. I already had him booked in the kennel for this trip, but I would not hesitate to have Adrianna drop in for him either.
