About: What sets me apart is the care and intention behind everything I do 🤍🐾 I’m the owner of Mindsett Paws, built around creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet. I don’t just “watch” pets, I care for them like they’re my own. I currently work at a dog (and cat!) daycare, where I care for a variety of breeds, personalities, and energy levels. This has helped me learn how to read behavior, manage different temperaments, and provide structured, dependable care. ✨ I’m especially experienced with: • Dogs of all energy levels • Anxious or sensitive pets • Creating a calm, structured environment • Cat care (feeding, litter, attention on their terms) I’m reliable, patient, and very attentive, making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. Because they’re not just pets… they’re family 🤍🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life 🤍🐾 I currently work at a dog (and cat!) daycare, so I’m used to being around animals daily and caring for different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Because of that, pet care naturally fits into my schedule and is something I truly enjoy. Outside of work, I structure my routine to make sure I have the time, energy, and attention to give each pet consistent, reliable care. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or boarding, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment, just like I do with Mindsett Paws. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I build my routine around 🤍🐾 they feel as comfortable and at ease as possible 🤍🐾 In a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule closely, feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—while keeping the environment calm and consistent. I also make sure to give plenty of attention, updates, and reassurance while you’re away. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and cozy space where pets can relax and feel at home. I focus on structure, supervision, and creating a low-stress environment, while still giving them plenty of love, play, and one-on-one attention. Through Mindsett Paws, my goal is always the same— ✨ Keep your pet safe ✨ Keep their routine consistent ✨ And make sure they feel comfortable and cared for like they’re my own Because they’re not just pets… they’re family 🤍🐾

Rachel provided wonderful care for our three dogs and 2 cats while we were away. She stopped by for drop-in visits and stayed for two overnights. She was very professional and continued to provide photo and written updates through the Rover app. She was attentive to the needs and individual personalities of our pets. Our pets appeared relaxed and happy under her care. We definitely recommend Rachel's services and would love to have her sit for us again!

Brandon and his wife were great. The animals all opened up to them. Even the cat that will not let me close to her was out with them. I will be using them again in the future.

About: My name is Tori Six and I am 31 years old. I’m currently living in Milford, but willing to travel to surrounding greater Bangor areas. I have many years of experience with all animals. I was the owner of a lab mix, a mini dachshund, many Dalmatians, and multiple cats. I’m comfortable with any animal usually, you could call me Pocahontas. I have many years of experience with all aspects of training puppies, including some doggie sign language for commands. I have connections and great resources to parks/areas to play outside and walk. I am available for any pet care needs. I have knowledge of taking care of animals with medical needs from assisting with walking, changing, medications, etc. could do some minor grooming but not certified. I am very compassionate with animals and will treat them like my own family. I hope to be booking with you! I work remotely so have a pretty flexible schedule for any pets needs. I do not have any animals currently. I am a homebody who always prioritize the animals needs. I treat every animal I work with like my own family. Whether it’s your senior animal needing hand feeding or a young animal needing play time I’m there! Always open to anything you need.
