About: Lots of love and lots of experience. Small and large, feisty or chill, cat or dog, any age, any needs, I can provide excellent care in your home, mine, or out and about! I work remotely - have laptop, have car, can travel - so my schedule is flexible. I am available for periodic care or longer term. In your home - your guidelines and with the utmost respect for you, your pets, your home, and your privacy. I can provide excellent references. In my home - I have separate living quarters in a home with two small dogs. There is a fenced in yard and lots of accessible neighborhood walks. Safe and secure, whatever works best for you and your pet.

About: I grew up having pets, and I have 2 cats at home now! I am a grad student in healthcare currently traveling for my clinical rotations and missing my own pets dearly. I thought this might be a nice way to make being away from home a little easier! I am trustworthy, caring and very dependable. Please reach out if you have any questions! I typically am away at clinic from 8a-4pm M-F, but am available anytime before or after. Depending on the location I may be able to accommodate a quick stop around lunch time if needed. Since I am not local I am happy to meet your pets in their home environment! I’m flexible and if more specific care of your pet is needed I’m sure we can work that out!

“Hayleigh did a wonderful job with our cats. They were adopted litter mates at the age of 3 months. They have never been without us, so they were a little shy about showing themselves. Everything was done as asked, feeding, litter box, etc. Would use again if the need arises.”

“Geoffery was so communicative and kind from the very beginning. My Luna instantly had a friend 🥹🥹 I look forward to working with Geoffery again in the future (and so does Loonie!). Thank you!!”

“Did a great job with my kitties—went above and beyond taking care of them, super reliable, and good communication. Left my place in great condition, and my kitties love her!”

Lindsay H.

“I always know my girls will be in excellent hands with Elizabeth and will have fun! She also maintains great communication and sends pictures which I love!”

Laurie P.

“Marisol did a wonderful job looking after my dog. She was kind, responsible and communicative, and I didn't have to worry that she would show up as booked. My dog loved her. Thank you, Marisol!”

Alicia M.

“Beth took great care of my two dogs! They love her and I trust her! She is easy to communicate with, and she sent prompt updates and photos. Thanks, Beth!”

Stephanie W.

“After we’d stayed home all through the Covid year, Jill was the first caregiver our 2 young kitties ever had. We were nervous to leave them, especially shy Jack. Well - no worries!! Jill has a calm, gentle demeanor and both cats quickly became comfortable with her. She’s responsive, reliable, and resourceful - she even found our extra birdseed to ensure the feeder outside the window (major cat entertainment!) stayed full. We definitely would recommend Jill!”

Beth M.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Amanda. Leaving a small puppy and other dog (both Basenjis) in someone else’s care can be nerve-racking, but Amanda made the entire process feel effortless and reassuring. From the start, it was clear she truly understands dogs and their personalities — especially a breed like a Basenji, which isn’t always the easiest! She was incredibly attentive, patient with our puppy, and thoughtful about making sure both dogs felt comfortable and cared for. We received regular updates and so many amazing photos, which made it clear our dogs were happy, relaxed, and getting plenty of attention. When we returned home, both dogs were calm, content, and clearly well cared for. It gave a lot of peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely trust them again with Amanda. We will absolutely have her back again, I highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and genuinely great pet sitter.”

“Second time we have had Melanie watch our cats and once again she did a great job. We will definitely be looking to book her again the next time we are out of town.”

Hes been fixed and he's very friendly. He's an indoor outdoor cat. Most of my work will be in your home as drop in visits.

About: Hello! I'm Jess - I'm from Northern California and moved to Maine last year. Growing up we always had dogs (and sometimes cats), so I learned to take care of pets from a young age. I was the go-to person in my neighborhood for pet-sitting and dog-walking. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies! I'm currently only working through Rover, so my schedule is very flexible right now! I'm available for drop-ins, all-day stays and overnights, as well as for long-term pet-sitting in your home. I love making every animal feel cared for - from playing with them, going on long walks outside, providing pets and cuddles, giving them occasional treats, etc. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also love to send little text and video updates, so you can check in on them while you're away. I've even done FaceTimes with pets and their owners!
