About: I’ve taken care of all dogs big and small and love every one of them (especially the big ones). My family has owned dogs since I was a young child. I am a trained EMT so I understand the basics of administering medication if your dog has specific needs. I have an extremely flexible routine and work primarily from home, so I have a lot of time to spend caring and playing with your dog. I’m an active person so if your dog likes to run that’s a plus! Our home is located on a large plot of land, so we have lots of space for your dog to run around and play outside, safely. Soon we will have a large, fenced area to play off-leash.
“Jessica was so kind! And kept me updated on Indie all day and sent as many pictures as I asked for and more!! I am so happy with the care and love Indie received and Indie was too! Will definitely reach out again!”
About: I love dogs (and cats) more than anything! I am happy to treat your fur babies to the finest care during the day, overnight, while you are on vacation, or once in awhile for walks, hikes, check ins, at your place or mine! A popular request this summer has been from folks on visiting who would like me to day sit at their campground/rv/hotel/air bnb while they enjoy the park, biking, boating or going out to eat. For boarding, My husband and I have a wonderful centrally located home in the Acadia region off the island. We have a fenced in yard and can take the stress out of leaving your pets while on vacation. Pick up and drop off can be arranged at the head of the island if requested. Wedding or event coming up? I can be your pets chaperon then too, just ask :) Need to exercise your pup? Mini day hikes available too- custom fit for your pups comfort. This summer I am taking a sabbatical to my career job which means more hiking, walks and freedom to spend time with your pet- with flexible scheduling :) While my home offers a wonderful spacious lawn and garden area for the pups with a secure 4' ht enclosed fence, pets are never left unattended in the area. Happy to board with your routine in mind in terms of crating or free range of our home and total pampering. Pet sitting at your home is welcome too!

“Charlotte was more than amazing watching our dog, Dakota. She was extremely accommodating for us, and had great availability too! She was available the next day after contacting her for a last minute pet sitting. She came with so much for Dakota to do, and brought her on multiple walks. Dakota was so happy in her care and nice and tired after hehe. Thank you Charlotte for caring for Dakota like one of your own!!! We appreciate what you did and every detail of your pet sitting with her. If you have Charlotte care for your pet, you can absolutely ensure that your pet will be well taken care of AND loved.”
