About: I have a beautiful cat named Lila now and two guinea pigs. I have a lot of experience with pets and love animals. I have pet sat for friends and family. I have been around animals for as long as I can remember. I do enjoy taking photos, so I will send lots of pictures of your fury friend while you’re away. I’m available and can work pet care around my daily and weekly schedule. I’m in between jobs right now so I have a lot of flexibility. I will make sure to watch the animal as if it's my own. I know how important your pet is to you. I will follow any rules given to me regarding your pet. I will also make sure to clean up any messes the pet makes and leave the space as clean as I got there.

“Josephine has been cat sitting for my sister for a while now. I was in a bit of a jam as my regular dog walker wasn’t available. I reached out to Jo and she was very quick to respond. She came in for a meet and greet a week before. She did a one hour walk with both my dogs and was very communicative and gave great updates. Thank you, Jo! I will definitely be booking and using her services again.”

About: For over two years, my life has been a revolving door of furry faces, wagging tails, and the occasional purr-fect cuddle. Fostering animals isn't just a hobby; it's a heartfelt commitment to providing temporary homes and endless love to those who need it most. Each animal comes with its own unique story, personality quirks, and, of course, challenges. I am currently a nanny and a business owner of a plant shop here in Maine! I have three days off each week, and am busy with weddings on weekends usually! I am completely free when it’s my time with your animals and will help in anyway I can to help them feel comfortable and accommodated for. I’m happy to do weekly check in’s and care! Caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, is my passion. With over two years of fostering experience, I've developed a keen understanding of each animal's unique needs and quirks. My approach combines a nurturing environment with a focus on their individual well-being, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and stimulated.

About: I have a personalized approach and am dedicated to meeting the unique needs of every furry friend. With extensive experience in training puppies and providing specialized care for senior pets, I ensure that each animal receives the attention and support they deserve. My ability to tailor activities and routines to suit individual personalities and requirements sets me apart, creating a comfortable and enriching experience for pets under my care. From basic obedience training to gentle senior companionship, I'm committed to providing top-notch care that fosters trust and happiness for both pets and their owners. I am Pet First Aid & CPR Certified. I live in a private association and have a sizable, secluded yard that borders a stream and pond. Since I work remotely from home four days a week and have summers off, pet care seamlessly integrates into my routine. Each morning, I dedicate time to feeding, walking and playing with my pets before diving into work tasks. Throughout the day, I take short breaks to ensure they receive attention and exercise. During the summer months, I have the flexibility to extend our outdoor adventures and spend quality time bonding with them on the the trails or swimming. Regular grooming sessions, vet appointments, and training sessions are also scheduled into my weekly agenda to ensure their overall well-being. Essentially,d pets are an integral part of my daily and weekly rhythms. I provide pets with a quiet space, leash walks in safe areas, and separate feeding spots to ensure comfort and safety. I integrate visiting pets with my own for socialization and play. Opportunity for off-leash adventures for dogs with great recall. I have a sizable, secluded yard away from traffic.

About: Honest, Experienced, Reliable pet sitting and care. We take great pride in forming a bond with each pet we take care of. This is something that we love doing and will love yours like our own. As an added bonus you should get a few great photos of your favorite creature! We have taken care of Dogs, Cats, Parrots, Turtles, Fish, Chickens, Ducks, Goats, Pigs, Horses, worms, snails, etc. If you have some fun and interesting animals we would love to come, meet you and them, and take care of them while you are out of town, or just at work! We welcome pets that love to snuggle in bed, elderly pets, as well as difficult and anxious pets. Sometimes our posted rates don’t meet your special needs pets, and appreciate your patience in the negotiation process. You will get the best available and individualized care of your pets in our home, or yours. Daily updates along with photos and videos of your pet, and have the peace of mind they are being loved and cared for just like you would at your own home. We welcome training opportunities, and can continue treat and/or clicker training and potty training as well. My husband worked at a local Donkey rescue and I have been rescuing Strays since 1985. We both just love and care for animals. The nitty gritty details: We only watch pets from 1 family at a time. This lessens the stress on them, and us, and allows us to give them the BEST care possible. This also costs a bit more. Our time is valuable, as we know yours does as well. While we are capable of hosting multiple pets, we choose to focus our time and care on your families pets 1 at a time. We do require a meet and greet, and sometimes a “trial run” for certain breeds, elderly pets, or pets we will be watching for over 2 days. In most circumstances this is NOT required, but we do want to meet those who are known to have separation anxiety, barking issues, food aggression or aggression in general, have high energy needs, special diets and medications and any pet that doesn’t do well with strangers. Day care pets during the week do need to be fairly well mannered, and not have barking and/or major anxiety issues. Drop off before 8:00am and Pick-Ups after 8:00pm will be charged an additional $10 per hour. Pets not picked up within 15 minutes of the scheduled pick up window will be charged an additional $20/hr. I currently work full time remote, so will have plenty of time to play and care for your pets! We have a regular schedule of play time, including walking or outdoor time every 2-4 hours for 15-30 minutes. We have a fully fenced backyard, and ALWAYS leash ALL pets when outside our yard. We have had several “runners”, corgis and cats that want to bolt for the first sign of freedom… or squirrels/birds etc. We take great caution to make sure your pet is safe at ALL times.

About: I've always loved all animals -- and had my own little neighborhood pet sitting business when I was 10. I grew up with cats, and adopted my own cat as soon as I graduated college and got my own apartment. I had her for 10 years, until I had to put her to sleep due to kitty breast cancer (in 2018). In 2020 I adopted a puppy through a rescue organization, and then added another dog to my family when I married my husband who had a bassett hound. My friends have had me pet sit over the years for a variety of breeds of dogs. I'm a self-employed entrepreneur with an Airbnb business and an interior decorating business. I work primarily from home (in Hiram ME ) and have a lot of control over my schedule. I am presently only offering drop-in visits and dog walks at my clients' homes because I already have 2 dogs at home and would like to keep things separate. When visiting my clients' homes I truly enjoy quality time with your pets, and take care to enter quietly and gently as to allow them to adjust. For cats, I make every effort to pet & play with them the full amount of time for our visit. If they choose to hide, I make an effort to coax them out. For dog visits & walks, I adapt to your dog's personality! I'm happy to sit & pet, or run around & play in the yard -- to their (and your) preference.

About: I’ve grown up with animals since I was young including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, rodents, etc! I love volunteering at rescues and have been throughout the years (shoutout to Rescue Charlie’s Friends, a very well organized rescue that helps thousands of dogs all year round) My friends go to me when they need help with pet care, I love helping out when I can especially when my friends just need a little getaway :)) Looking for anyone that would need spontaneous dog walks!! I am currently unable to do consistent schedules/care with clients but willing to pop in for any urgent needs :) I have a kitty named Alf and he loves relaxing music/lofi so my partner and I always leave it on for him when we have to be out for awhile, we end up finding him napping like a rock :) It really comes down to a few things, toys, treats, and music and my boy is happy 😸

About: I have been pet sitting for a long time now and even made it my summer job in college. My goal is to give your pet plenty of love and attention to make them feel comfortable. I have a 2 year old mini schnauzer who loves all dogs of all sizes and he will make sure your pet has plenty of play time that when you get home they are tired. I work fully remote so I am always home. I have a yard out front and then snowmobile trails behind my apartment where we can go for long walks. I work fully remote from home and will always be around :) I am usually up around 6:30 am and go to bed around 10/10:30 pm I offer a lot of love and attention to all pets. I love taking my dog out a few times a day and make sure he gets at least a couple long walks. I have a living room for them to play or my yard out front is just as great. My doors are always closed and I live in a safe area of Fryeburg and live on a dead end road. I promise your animal will get more attention not just from me but from my dog.
