House Sitting in Hancock

“Glendon gave us continuous updates with pic and videos of our happy pups. They were relaxed and well taken care of. Glendon cares for animals and makes us feel reassured when we are away. Will definitely book with him again.”

“Couldn't have been better! Karen was awesome with our furry kids. They absolutely loved having her for a visit as did we. Part of me hates leaving such a great review for fear Karen will be booked when we need her....but fair is fair. We'll definitely be calling upon her again, and soon!”

“Kirsten is an amazing dog sitter! We had her take care of three young dogs for a long weekend. I immediately knew they were in good hands — she kept us updated the entire time we were gone and went the extra mile when one of my pooches got an upset stomach. I will definitely use Kirsten again and can’t say enough good things about her.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs cats rabbits and horses ever since I was 10. I’ve cared for new born kittens as well as senior cats at the Humane Society for almost 10 years. And cared for my neighbors’ dogs. From volunteering I’ve learn much about behaviors for both dogs and cats and have discovered I have a talent for working with them. I decided at retiring that I would like to begin in home pet sitting earning a living. I also manage an Airbnb with pets and have had great experiences with both dogs and and cats. I’m available all times but desire at least a week in advance notice. Daily weekly and hourly with breaks when needed for managing my Airbnb. Usually to clean after check out. Also per your needs I will need to have a brief break in the day to drive home to make sure my cats are fed and happy with some play time if I am asked to do overnights. I have 4 cats now. They get fed on special foods on a schedule. When they are eating I clean their cat boxes and when they are finished, I clean their bowls. Before they begin their daily naps , I play with each of them. They range in age from 19 to 1 yr. I also check their water bowls throughout the day or night depending. I can give them treats anytime. I also have learned various medical skills and hope to go back to school for a third degree as a vet tech and if life allows veterinary practice.

“Tiana was such a pleasure to work with. She stayed in house with three dogs who all seemed to attach to her seamlessly. The house was spotless when I came home. My first experience with Rover was exemplary.”

“Nicole was great. Bella was happy to see us when we got back, but not stressed at all. It was a huge relief to us to have someone we trusted watching her while I took my husband to the hospital for an outpatient procedure. Turned out well all the way around and I would use her again.”

“Mak was absolutely amazing. This was my first time leaving my 5mo Aussie pup alone at home, and she reassured me regularly that Bindi was doing great. I was able to fully relax and enjoy my time away. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“I have known Abi for quite some time now and I can confidently say that they are an incredibly responsible and caring pet caregiver. Her dedication and genuine love for animals shine through in every interaction they have with them. Abi always goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of pets under their care. She is attentive to their needs, providing them with proper nutrition, exercise, and ample playtime. Abi understands the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment for pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved at all times. What sets Abi apart is her exceptional level of responsibility. She follow schedules diligently, making sure that pets are fed on time, given any necessary medication, and taken for regular walks or outings. Abi is also quick to notice any changes in behavior or health and takes immediate action to address it, whether it's scheduling a vet appointment or adjusting their care routine accordingly. I have seen firsthand how Abi interacts with animals and it's truly heartwarming. She have a gentle and patient approach, always taking the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs. Her ability to connect with animals is remarkable, earning trust and forming lasting bonds with even the most timid or anxious pets. Overall, I highly recommend Abi as a pet caregiver. She is responsible and caring nature combined with her love for animals makes them an exceptional choice to entrust your beloved pets with. You can rest assured knowing that Abi will provide the utmost care, attention, and affection for your furry friends.”

“Addison was great! She is a good communicator who sent daily updates of our pup. She also sent some pictures which was sweet. When we noticed on the puppy cam that our dog was in an area she shouldn't be one day, Addison quickly went over to fix the issue. Will definitely work with her again!”

“Jasmine is a wonderful pet sitter. From dogs right down to fish! She is calm, competent, communicative and intuitive. My nervous and wary dog took to her immediately, as have the cats. The house, and everyone in it, feels in good hands, enabling stress-free time away.”

“Sophie did a fantastic job of caring for our house and our pets while we were on vacation. She kept us updated with frequent photos and cute stories, and was great about asking questions for anything that wasn't clear. I have never had such a stress-free vacation - I was so relaxed about our pets being in good hands. When we got home, the house was clean and the animals were all so calm and happy. We will definitely book her again if she's available!”

About: My family and I have raised three dogs, two boxers and an English bull dog. From daily walks to nightly cuddles, I have cared for my pups in good health and post-oral and leg surgery. I have cared for my neighbors cats and have worked at a local shelter to take care of new litters (clean up, outside exposure). When I am at home in Maine, I often wake up to my dogs at my feet. I walk both of them (two boxers, total weight of 160) for at least an hour, feed them, cuddle, and give them an evening walk as well. When taking care of other's animals, I have a large backyard for dogs to play in. I live near many trails to walk on. I live in a communal space with housemates who would love to also play with your pup! When staying in your home, I have spent time in other's spaces when working as a summer cleaner. I will take care of your animal(s) to the best of my ability and can complete household chores if needed. My goal as an animal caretaker is for your animal(s) to feel comfortable and happy in the space.

About: I’ve had almost every kind of pet since I was little and have worked on farms and taken care of pets my whole life. I’m familiar with senior pets, puppies, and animals with special care needs. I’ve taken care of possums,raccoons, goats, cows, you name it! I work from home with a loose schedule so your pet will be my first priority! I have many days off throughout the week as well. I have a cozy first floor apartment right in town with plenty of comfy carpet to snooze on and space for crates if needed. I’m always outside and right near a large dog friendly park and a 5 minute walk to acadia national park!

“I have known Min for many years and she has always been an animal lover. She has a way with them that is kind and loving yet firm, and all pets just love her. Her own dog is a great testimonial as Min has had her since she was a pup and she is extremely well behaved and happy. Min has also fostered dogs and assisted several rescues. I would highly recommend Min for any pet walking or sitting services. You’d be very lucky to get her!”
