“Emily took amazing care of our 2 ferrets every day for over 2 weeks. She kept their pen clean, gave them lots of attention during her visits, and ensured our disabled girl received the extra care and help she needs. Super communicative and dedicated to caring for them! We highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable and caring sitter! :) Thank you, Emily, for watching our babies!!”
“Eliot was a lifesaver as we had to get out 3 cats out of the house for the day for work to be done, and on short notice! We will definitely be using their services again! Thank you!”
“Richard was great - I felt pretty comfortable going away for 4 days knowing Richard was coming to visit my girl kitties !! This was my first trip away in a long time and it went very well - I can’t thank you enough Richard !! 🐾🐾”
About: I grew in a home full of dogs and cats. I have experience with dogs from young pups to older dogs as well. I truly want to help and support pets and people in anyway I can. I am a teacher so I am available on weekdays after 3pm and anytime on the weekends. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I cannot welcome your pet into my home in my current housing situation but I will provide any necessary care to your family including walks, drop in visits, and house sitting.
“Katie is amazing!! Our little Lu was (literally) eating out of her hands from the first moment they met! Katie did a wonderful job of making sure our cat was safe and gave us peace of mind while we were away. She is super friendly and attentive and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
“I'm so happy to have found Kenedi! My poor kitty (Luna) has been skittish ever since my ex and I split up and left California a few years ago, and I've always worried about her when I'm away. But she warmed up to Kenedi really quickly, and Kenedi sent me adorable photos of Luna snuggling up to her every day! It's super reassuring and heartwarming to see that my cat seems as happy with Kenedi as she is with me! ^_^ <3”
About: I’ve worked at 2 doggy daycares in the last few years where we did boarding. I’ve also worked in a cat boarding facility and have worked at pet stores for about 5-6 years. I was trusted with cleaning up after and giving medications to pets that needed it. I’m currently working part time in Freeport so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets and spend time with them and take them on walks depending on weather. I live in a wooded area with access to tie outs so your pets and I could sit outside on good days and play. I have an extra room in the house where I can easily board your pet but would require you to bring a crate if they’re crate trained depending on the size of the pet. I do have two crates available that I could use if you’re unable to bring their crate. I have 2 cats in the household along with my fiance so they would have to be cat and man friendly.
About: Hello! My name is Haley. I grew up in a pet loving home my family always had such a fondness for all animals. My house can be somewhat of a zoo with two dogs, two bunnies and a handful of cats but I wouldn’t change it for the world. We all recently relocated to Maine! It’s been terrific seeing the dogs play out in the snow. A true joy. Looking to get out meet people and their awesome pets. I would love to help you take care of your pup, big or small, and whatever the need may be to keep our furry friend’s tails wagging happily. Feel free to ask me anything else. Thank you so much for stopping by my profile! I currently have completely open availability, including overnight stays, check ins throughout the day or days, and some traveling depending on the distance to consider. Years of leash experience with one or more dogs at a time. Can easily administer medications. Monitor play time and keep a watchful eye for any possible issues.
About: I know dogs need exercise, discipline, and affection. I know it can be challenging to find the right pet care that is trustworthy and reliable. I’ll do my best to give your pet the care they need! I am a massage therapist for part of the week and I homeschool my children when I’m not working. My schedule is somewhat flexible and I have extra time to fill here and there with pet care. I will feed, walk, or give your animals attention based on clients request and animals requirements. Whether it’s In the yard, taking them for a walk or just sitting petting them, I’ll give them what they need.
About: Hi there! I’m Caroline, a passionate dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I believe every dog deserves a safe, fun, and loving environment while their owners are away. I offer: Daily walks and playtime tailored to your dog’s energy level. A cozy home environment with plenty of cuddles. Regular updates and photos so you can stay connected. I’m committed to keeping your furry friend happy and healthy. Whether it's a short visit or an extended stay, I can’t wait to meet your pup and provide the care they deserve! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. Looking forward to caring for your beloved pet! I live with my partner of 8 years, Kurt who is pictured in my gallery and referenced in reviews. Pet care seamlessly blends into daily routine, especially since I work part-time. I prioritize walks and playtime, fitting these activities around my work schedule to ensure pets get plenty of attention and exercise. I also enjoy incorporating training and socialization to keep them engaged and happy. My flexible hours allow me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for, making sure they feel loved and secure while their owners are away I provide personalized pet care based on the specific needs of each pet and their home environment. In my home, I create a safe and welcoming space, with plenty of room for play and relaxation. I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, exercise, and bathroom breaks, ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines closely to minimize stress. I make sure to provide regular exercise, playtime, and companionship. I also prioritize keeping the environment clean and familiar, while providing updates to the owners, so they feel connected to their pets during their time away. My goal is to ensure every pet receives the love and attention they deserve, whether in my home or theirs.
About: I have grown up and cared for pets all my life. I have a history of basic training for puppies and older dogs. Administering medication to your baby is no problem, and our house is up for even the most spry puppy. I have a long history of fostering dogs in my home as well and working with rescues to help them find their forever homes. You can rest assured that your fur (or fur-less as the case may be) baby will be treated like one of my own while you are away. My babies take two walks a day (some times more) that your love would also be included on. They are generally home while I work but I work from home a few days a week and I am also able to come home to let them out for potty breaks. All our pets have an endless supply of love and play time with our kiddos every day. I also have a large yard in a country setting away from the hustle and bustle of the day to day, so it can be an opportunity for your baby to relax and enjoy his/her vacation as well. I care for our pets with walks, love, cuddling, feeding on pet specific schedule, and medication administrations as instructed. I also ensure regular vet visits and ample time with me home to love on them and give them the attention they need to feel part of the family. Training is also an important part of pet ownership and I work at giving our pets at least basic training.
“Amelia came through in a pinch, got on our dogs’ energy level and gave our nervous, reactive one a chance to warm up without pushing him. Excellent communication. During the meet and greet she asked good questions and had good instincts on what to do to help our dogs and cat get comfortable with her. It was clear they were in good hands with Amelia. Thank you!”
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats my whole life and have been pet sitting for family, friends and anyone in need for the last three years! I have experience with both puppies between the ages of six months and two years old and senior dogs up to the age of 13. I am currently working part-time as a nanny most Thursdays through Saturdays, I am typically always available during the beginning of the week and work some half day shifts nannying so my schedule is open to changes. I always ask my clients to provide me with a strict set of rules and requirements, so that both myself, and the client feel comfortable with me being in the space.

Savanna R.
“Recently, I had to go on a trip out of town. It was a sudden, stressful and emotionally exhausting trip that I didn’t have a choice but to go on. It would have been worse had I not had someone truly responsible and caring to watch over my Kiki. Luckily, Savanna exists. She’s kind, helpful, caring, on the ball with her work, and absolutely the best I could hope for when it comes to caring for my precious Kiki. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your own precious loved ones. She’ll do the job right.”

He is a sweetheart but only 8 months old, lots of energy, has a little bit of deviousness and recently neutered. It was not a small ask. Haley was amazing. My house looked fantastic (no puppy misadventures) and he is absolutely in love with her. I've known her as a sweet, caring, animal lover and she was absolutely all of that.I recommend her as a caregiver and thank her for her responsibility, kindness, love, and safety she gave my pup.”
Sheila R.

As an adult, she has been a pet owner of dogs over the years. She has a gentle spirit and takes responsibility of animal care seriously and intuitively. As a professional woman, she communicates well with clients. She understands the need for pet owners to trust who is involved with their pets and in their homes and will offer the best she is asked to do.”
Caroline C.
“Caroline is so loving and attentive to her furry friends. My Zoe loves her time playing and snuggling with Caroline. Zoe is older and requires lots of special care which Caroline delivers in a patient and kind manner. Her love for animals shines when I see them together and I know my dog will be comfortable and cared for while I'm away.”
