Pet care experience

I will treat any pet like my own!:)

I am a playful dog watcher and will always be engaged when your dog is in my care! I have experience training puppies as well as training dogs who are older and need some more guidance. Size of a dog doesn't matter, I have experience with dogs that are bigger than 110+ pounds and that are as tall as my waist. I have owned all different types of breeds and have knowledge about certain care some breeds might need. I have experience with labs, poodles, mastiffs, pugs, spaniels, terriers, greyhounds, pitbulls, and more. I would absolutely love to get to know your furry friend and take them out on adventures or for a simple walk through town! Your pet will never be bored or unhappy while we're together! I am a local teacher and am very excited to watch awesome pups all summer! I am walking distance from downtown Bar Harbor! I will ask specifically what can and cannot happen on my day with your pup, if I have any plans to take them out I will let you know in advance. I also send dozens of photos all day to you :) Accomdating your pet into my schedule is a lot easier than one might assume! I work right in Bar Harbor! Just message me for availability! I thoroughly clean my space before your pets arrival and tidy up around so there will be no issues with accidental swallowing of random objects

Sonia took great care of our very shy cat, and even coaxed him out from under the bed during her last visit. Thank you, Sonia!

Sonia was wonderful watching our dog for the day while we were on a tour of Acadia National Park. She was friendly and took our dog on a walk to the park.

Sonia is absolutely amazing! Our doggo has separation anxiety, but not when he is with her. Great communication and pictures. She is our go to doggy sitter when in Maine. Will be booking whenever we can get her!

Sonia was amazing! Lots of pictures throughout and our anxious pooch was at ease and loved her instantly. Will definitely be using her as much as we can book her!

I would need to know what breed they are and what age they are! Also if they have allergies or medications, if they are on a specific feeding or potty schedule.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
