“Gillian was great! She showed up on time, made friends with my cats, handled a little throw up from my nervous cat, and gave great updates every day! She was also so kind as to be flexible with the handoff/dropoff of the key. Would definitely book with her again!”


2. Naomi W.

“Naomi was wonderful! She took great care of our two dogs and cat and even gave extra care to our older corgi who is moving slow these days. She gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Cant wait to work with you again!”


3. Colleen R.

“Colleen was awesome with Sturgis who is older and has been recovering from being sick- she was really easy to work with, went out of her way for us and I can tell that she really loves animals and puts their best interests first! We are excited to be able to have the opportunity to have her help us so we can fully enjoy our Maine vaca- just wish she lived closer the rest of the year!”


4. Kelly C.

“Kelly is the best!! The care she provided for our pets while we were away for an extended amount of time was top notch. We couldn't ask for a better pet caretaker! She was on task 100% of the time, She truly loves our pets and treated them as if they were her own. We can't thank her enough and hope to use her many more times in the future.”


5. Nathan B.
“I am writing to recommend Nathan as a pet care provider. Nate has been doing pet care services now for going on 10 years. (In addition to providing this service, he also does house sitting.) Nathan is a pet owner himself and has helped me whelp 3 litters of German Shepherd pups, as well as raise/train my current German Shepherd. Nathan is a very responsible pet owner and a consummate professional. If you are looking to hire someone who will give your pet(s) the care and attention they deserve, please consider Nate for the job. You won't be disappointed!”

About: With over 3 years of professional pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—including puppies, senior pets, and those with special routines. I’m not just a sitter—I’m your pet’s second best friend while you’re away. What sets me apart is the level of personalized care I provide, my strong communication with pet parents, and my flexibility to adapt to each pet’s unique habits and energy levels. I work full-time as a pet sitter, so your pet’s well-being and routine are my top priority. I’m experienced with multi-pet households, large breed dogs, and high-energy pups that need extra playtime. I also offer overnight stays with discounted rates for multiple pets, and I’m happy to discuss custom bundles based on your needs—whether it’s a weekend getaway or a longer trip. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, communicates consistently, and treats your pets like family—I’d love to help. Pet care is a big part of my daily life—I’m a full-time sitter, so my schedule revolves around the pets I care for. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they’re used to. I also block off time for overnight stays and am available on weekends and holidays with advance notice. Since this is my primary focus, I’m flexible and responsive, making it easy to accommodate custom routines or last-minute bookings when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or stopping in for visits, I treat every space with the same respect and attention I would expect for my own. I make it a priority to stick closely to each pet’s routine so they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I maintain a calm, clean environment, follow all feeding, potty, and medication instructions closely, and always double-check doors, gates, and locks. I’m mindful of each pet’s comfort level and body language, especially when it comes to shy or energetic pets, and I adjust my approach to match what they need—whether it’s quiet company, active play, or just a little extra patience. For overnight stays, I create a peaceful and familiar atmosphere by keeping to your pet’s bedtime routine, favorite toys, and walking routes. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

14. Lindsay S.

“Lindsay was great! My dogs love her and she was absolutely amazing with them. She really cares about her clients. She took photos and kept me informed the whole time.”


15. Kathryn-Emma H.
About: I’ve taken care of plenty of family/friends pets for a few years. We have a 1yr old lab and a 2 yr old cat as well. I love to work with puppies on their sit and stays (or really anything you might want assistance with). I can be sure to keep the training going! Nothing is better than a well trained dog! I currently work Monday-Friday but am happy to do evenings/overnights or even weekends for your favorite loved ones! I can also stay overnight during the week as well and go back after I’m out of work if that is ok with you and your pets schedule!! We have a 1 yr old lab who loves to play and is happy to if your pets allow it! We don’t use a leash on him at home as we live in the woods but if your dog is a runner I will keep them on a leash so we don’t have any issues. We have a run we can hook them on to play outside if they prefer to not be on a leash. Lastly our favorite place to hangout is in our basement because our big guy can run around and be in a safe place!


16. Selena S.

“Selena was so great to work with! She came over before the actual day I needed her, to go over the "routine" etc. While she was with Bud she was super communicative and checked in with photos and texts. Bud was well taken care for :). She wa also flexible about timing. Would definitely work with Selena again!!”

About: Spent my younger years on a farm around pigs, chickens, dogs, horses, and a ton of cats! Have had pets on and off throughout my life! I love animals 💜 I currently work full time during the weekdays but have my evenings and weekends free! I'm available after 4 pm Monday-Friday and all day most weekends! Animals are one of my favorite things in life! I currently have two cats (Gronk and Grim) that are no less than sons to me! I dote on and spoil them like a mother should!

19. Melanie B.

“Melanie was great! We were nervous leaving our cats for two weeks but she was very reassuring and kind to our pets- giving each the individual care and attention they needed. She sent regular updates and even communicated with our daughter as we were out of the country. Would book with her again!”


20. Olivia C.


“Olivia was so great! Meet and greet process went very well, we have 4 cats and all were cared for exactly as asked for. Olivia even went above and beyond and grabbed an extra bag of dry food from the store for our cats gravity feeder because they devoured it long before they should have. Very grateful and will definitely be booking with Olivia again!”
