“Elli was terrific! She came for a Meet and Greet and was a wonderful person and sweet to our girl Ducky who is high energy. Elli kept us updated and made our day trip to NH relaxing knowing she was taking Ducky on some walks.”

About: 🐱🐶 Animals have been my whole world my whole life! I have experience with a variety of animals from fish 🐠 to turtles🐢 as well as dogs🐕 and cats🐈‍⬛. I use positive reinforcement training techniques with our three rescue dogs and I use worship all cats techniques with our cats 😆. I am comfortable and familiar with the needs of puppies and kittens as well as senior animals. So medication💊 and physical therapy💪 exercises are something I am happy to provide! I went to college for animal behavior and animal sciences and have a degree in Ecology 🌎 I completed a 2 year course in wildlife rehabilitation. I will treat your animals as if they were my own and that means they get the utmost care and attention. 🫡 I will respect and follow whatever your babies' needs and preferences are as well as yours when it comes to them and to your space. 💓 We love taking our dogs on all sorts of outdoor adventures but safety is always our top priorty⛰️🦺! I am great at reading animals and understanding the different personalities and quirks they each have so I can provide them with the best care that works for them 🧐 Every animal is different but they all deserve our best! I have a flexible schedule and my own car that allows me to be an adaptive and on call care giver. I don't mind late bookings or cancelations as I understand that things come up. I am new to rover and still figuring out what works best but am always willing to work with clients on what works best for them and their pets. Animals are my first priority but I also believe homes and personal spaces are sacred and I will always treat them with respect and attention. All animals are different so its important to use to always be aware of anything potentially unsafe. Our home is for animals first and there is nowhere they aren't allowed although animal guests and clients are always fully supervised to make sure they are safe and comfortable. Our home is very easy going and has a lot of space for different needs and comforts. In your home, I will defer to your personal preferences always.

“Erica has been so amazing with Leo! Leo tends to be nervous of new people and reactive so I was very apprehensive about having someone new walk him. Erica took her time with Leo, doing a meet and greet and test walk before and was patient in allowing him to gain trust in her. He’s making such great progress with Erica and it’s so nice to have found someone who is so sweet and loving towards him and who can be trusted. Erica is very reliable, coming at the scheduled time each day and even willing to make last minute adjustments when needed. I can’t say enough how amazing Erica has been and how much Leo and I appreciate her for her help!”

About: I grew up with both dogs, cats and rabbits. I’ve cared for various other mammals throughout my life. I have experience with senior and sick animals as well. I have house sat for many neighbors and their various pets over the years. I currently work a very flexible job from home which takes up less than 20 hours a week so I have plenty time to spend with your pets. I have always loved animals but I currently don’t have any pets of my own. We will have plenty time for pets, walks and playing outside.

“Anna is a life saver. Even though our pup can be shy and a bit reactive, Anna was able to work her magic. Super communicative and all around nice person.”

About: Hi, I'm Greta, and I'm thrilled to offer my pet-sitting services! As a lifelong animal lover, I've always felt a special connection with our furry, friends. Growing up, I was surrounded by pets of all shapes and sizes, from dogs and cats to horses. This early exposure taught me the importance of patience, understanding, and responsible care. I believe that every pet is unique and deserves personalized attention. Whether it's a playful pup who needs plenty of exercise or a timid kitty who prefers gentle cuddles, I'm committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your beloved companions. I'm experienced in feeding, walking, administering medication, and, most importantly, showering pets with love and affection. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they'll be treated like family. I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can stay connected and worry-free while you're away. I'm excited to meet you and your pets and create a positive and memorable experience for everyone!" My schedule tends to stay pretty open. I work at a cafe, but my shifts are usually just 4-7 hours so I can provide full care outside of that time. I care for pets according to whatever their needs are. I will happily follow any instructions given to me, whether the pet needs special medication or specific care, I am open to most.

“Very pleased with her communication and Vader seemed to enjoy his time with her a lot. Highly recommend.”

“Justin and Eva were very happy and enthusiastic about meeting my dog, Bruce. They listened to all my recommendations and did a successful 1 hour walk, even in the rain! Very pleasant people to work with.”

“Daisy was great with our young puppy! He's barely socialized yet and he loved her immediately! She also got him to enjoy a long walk when he hasn't been too keen on walks yet. Daisy was a pleasure to work with; easy going, respectful of our boundaries, and happy to schedule us whenever she could. Highly recommend!!”

“Cassandra was great with my two dogs. She got to know them a little and played in the yard before taking them on their walk. She took lots of pictures and gave me a good summary of the visit! She was easy to communicate with and I was relieved that my dogs were taken care of while I was stuck at work for a long day. Her background in animal care/behavior just raises my confidence in her care even more. I will absolutely consider he again for future needs.”

About: I’ve had pets all my life – cats and dogs. I can’t imagine having a home without animals. Currently, I have 2 very loving German Shepherds and a cat. I’ve used Rover for years to find sitters for my own pets and now that I’m retired I’m excited to fill some of my time looking after other people’s babies. Since I’m retired, I’m open to a variety of schedules. Ideally I would like to avoid night visits but am happy to drop in anytime during the day. I believe all pets should be spoiled and loved unconditionally. During drop in visits, I will make sure your pets have all their needs met and do everything I can to comfort them in their owners absence.

About: I've been caring for cats and dogs my whole life, and it's something that's become second nature to me. I currently have two cats and one dog, and each of them has their own unique personality and needs. Over the years, I've learned how to read their behaviors, provide the right nutrition, and create a safe, loving environment for them to thrive in. From playful moments to quiet companionship, caring for them has brought me so much joy and a deep sense of responsibility. Whether it's grooming, training, or those unexpected trips to the vet, pet care has taught me patience, empathy, and the true meaning of unconditional love. Pet care is a regular and important part of my daily routine. I start each morning by feeding my two cats and my dog, making sure they all have fresh water. I take my dog out for a walk in the morning and again in the evening, which also gives us some good exercise and bonding time. Throughout the day, I clean the litter boxes, check on my pets to make sure they’re comfortable, and give them attention or play with them when I can. In the evenings, I often brush them or do basic grooming if needed. Taking care of them has become a natural part of my schedule — it keeps me grounded and gives my day a sense of structure and purpose. I will update my schedule here weekly. I work full time in Bangor, so I would be available any day after 4PM always, and then three or four days a week I will have open availability. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I make sure they’re fed on a consistent schedule, have clean water, and receive plenty of attention and exercise. I clean litter boxes daily for my cats and take my dog out for regular walks. I also spend time grooming them and watching for any signs of health issues. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely, stick to the pet’s usual routine to minimize stress, and treat their home and animals with the same care and respect I give my own. I make sure to communicate clearly with the owner and provide updates so they feel at ease while away.

My main foal is to treat every animal with the compassion and respect they deserve

I am currently a freshman at Umass Amherst, with availability Fridays, Monday and Wednesday mornings until 2pm, and occasional weekends. I am available to do check ups if given enough time to plan and respond! While I cannot house sit in my own house, I can in the client's home. I will follow specific directions given, and make sure the pups are fed, played with, and let out.

About: I am a proud dog, cat and bird mom! I grew up on a farm with a variety of different critters such as horses, cows, pigs, goats, chickens, dogs, cats and more! I am a veterinary assistant and love the career I am in. I have worked in the profession for 9 years. I enjoy taking care of animals and especially those in need. I have many years of experience with foster care for both dogs and cat. I pride myself in taking care of your pet like they are my own. I have 4 dogs, 3 cats and 3 birds that I love dearly. I am a veterinary assistant and work part time currently. I have animals around me in every aspect of my life. I have a large house that is dog and cat friendly. My dogs love playing in our large back yard and are well adjusted to having new visitors and making new friends.

About: My family has five dogs, training has been one of my hobbies since childhood! When it comes to dogs I have been there and done that- there is nothing your dog could do to surprise me. I come from a farming veterinary family so I am equipped to look for any warning signs should your pup need any care during my visit. I also have two cats of my own that are dog friendly and very curious. My goal is to keep your pets happy, healthy, and entertained! If your pet has any special medical needs or needs to be administered medication, I am more than happy to accommodate that. I am also a pet parent to two adorable kittens, I know the patience they require and how rewarding they are. Hope I get to meet you and your furry friend soon! Do you have more than one pet? No worries! I only charge +$5 per pet, the more the merrier! I am a law student with a summer internship, meaning I am unavailable during the work week 9-5. I am available the rest of the week and would love to coordinate a schedule with you. Communication is key! If I notice anything is off, I will alert you right away. Every pet is different, some are simply quirky- it is important that I let you know if I see any abnormal behaviour. I have experience with dogs with severe anxiety, injuries, joint problems, behaviour issues, you name it. If your pet needs any sort of special care, I will be happy to help. If I see any concerning behaviour I will let you know immediately and we can plan from there the course of action that needs to be taken.
