About: I recently earned my Animal Handling and Kennel Care Certificate in the summer of 2022. I have also taken care of my own and others fur babies in the past. I’m a full-time artist so my schedule is very open and flexible. I can work around your schedule to make it work within mine. I can work weekdays, weekends, and also holidays. When caring for your cat just let me know some of there preferences and how you would like me to take care of them. I will take care of them according to your plan.
“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!!”

“Wendy completed three drop-in visits for my two dogs recently and I look forward to booking with her again. She comes across as very professional and competent, and I was confident that she would take good care of my pets while I was away. My younger dog is very shy and anxious around new people, and Wendy was understanding and considerate with her. She was respectful of my privacy and living space, careful about following through with my requests, and I highly recommend her.”

“Stephanie was wonderful with my two cats! She kept me updated on how they were doing and sent me photos of them everyday. It was so nice to go away and know they were being well taken care of.”

“It was so nice meeting Alicia! Our cats were in great hands while we were away. She sent us regular updates so we never had to worry how they were doing. Would definitely book with her again!”

“Cory is a great pet sitter at Brunswick area. When I had a long trip out of town, she helped take care of my cat Gingy and make sure he was okay and felt at ease at home. I can rely on Cory and I am thankful for having her!!”

About: Lots of experience and knowledge from years of taking care of my own, and local families pets. Can stay at pet owners home, do drop in visits, or board pets under a certain criteria. I have experience with young puppies, senior dogs, and large dog breeds! I also have experience with small livestock, rodents, and small reptiles. I am currently in high school, but I am done by 2pm or earlier every day. Weekends are free to give my full attention to the pet. I will provide thoughtful care for your pet, and can update you with many photos and videos. I will make sure to collect emergency phone numbers and vet details in case of emergency. And most importantly I will give your pet lots of love while you are away!
About: I'm a work at home pet mom with a large yard, lots of toys, and a calm and welcoming house. I've always had large dogs from mixed breeds to Great Danes, but love and appreciate all types of well mannered dogs. My house sits well off the road, so its quiet and I hike or trail walk almost daily. I am adept at giving medicine, cleaning wounds and dealing with incontinent dogs, but I will only board dogs who are respectful of my cats. I am currently working from home on my own schedule. Boarded dogs who enjoy car rides can come with me on errands or outings. While each day may different, my activities will be built around the needs of the animals I am caretaking, especially if separation anxiety is an issue. I will care for your animals as per your instructions and the capabilities of your pet. I do not have a fenced in yard, but have installed a run line in the past. If a dog is used to being crated, receiving treats, or sleeping on the couch - no problem. Conversely, I don't give animals people food, and if you want your pets to stay off furniture I will strictly honor that as well. My house is small but open, so it is easy to keep an eye on them.
About: We each have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats for family and friends. We truly love animals and enjoy giving them dependable, loving care while your away! We both have flexible schedules, so pet care fits easily into our daily routine. We’re home most of the day, which allows us to give pets regular walks, playtime, and attention. We’re able to follow each pet’s normal routine and keep things as consistent as possible. We take safety very seriously. We follow all instructions, keep a secure environment, and make sure pets are always supervised, especially on walks or outdoors. We respect our clients’ homes and routines, and we keep owners updated so they can trust their pet is in good hands.

About: I've had dogs, usually one at a time, my entire life. My current dog, Rupert, was adopted from a shelter. Rupert has enriched my life so very much. I know that my wife, the spare parent, is just a bit jealous of how much Rupert and I love each other. I'm working at a job with flexible hours. I would be available for pet care during times when I'm not working my other job. It would be great to be able to coordinate pet care jobs near my human care job. I make sure my dog goes outside for walks, and to go to the bathroom, several times a day. I also like to take Rupert on longer walks on nearby trails at preserves. I make sure he is well fed and watered. Lots of cuddle time. For Lucy, the cat, I am the one that feeds her and takes care of the litter box. Lucy cuddles with the wife more than with me, but still plenty of cuddles and play time together.
“Alyssa was very kind and prompt with responses & updates! They sent many pictures of my cats having the time of their lives and accommodated their separate diets. I would definitely book Alyssa again and trust them with anyone’s pets. Thank you again for being able check in on such short notice!!”

About: I have been working with Dogs since I was young! I am comfortable with big dogs, small dogs, older dogs, and puppies! I am happy to feed them, walk them, give them oral medicine and love on them! I love doing brain games and fun trick training for mental stimulation! I’ll be your pets next best friend! I am currently working part time, and have lots of free time throughout the week for all of the Dogs and Kitties that need some attention! My schedule typically is pretty open so just send me a message if you are looking for a specific day or time! I will always come gentle and give your fur babies time to feel safe with me. I want your fur family to feel safe, happy, loved and have a blast!
“Utterly fantastic service and care. She made sure my babies were fed, watered, and safe every day. I had to extend and she was gracious enough to modify the reservation for me. Colleen is a goddess. My babies are in good hands with her and Rover. Thank you!!!”

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!
About: I’m more than just a sitter — I’m someone who’s dedicated my life to understanding and caring for animals. I’ve grown up with dogs, and my passion for their well-being has only deepened over the years. I’ve worked hands-on in both doggy daycares and animal care facilities, where I gained experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments — as well as other animals. I’ve also personally trained my own dog to become a service dog, which has given me deep insight into canine behavior, patience, and positive reinforcement techniques. I’m currently pursuing certification as a professional dog trainer and working toward a bachelor’s degree in Animal Behavior — so I bring both real-world experience and science-backed knowledge to every walk and visit. Whether it’s puppies needing structure, seniors needing gentle care, or high-energy dogs that need a good workout, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique needs. Above all, I treat every animal as if they were my own — with love, respect, and consistency. Right now, I have open availability and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet’s care. I'm currently in between jobs, so I’m flexible and able to accommodate last-minute bookings, daily walks, and extended stays. Even when I’m busy, I always make time for my own dog — caring for animals is just a natural part of my routine. Once I’m working part-time, pet care will still be a priority in my schedule. Whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays, I’ll continue to provide consistent, loving care with reliability you can count on. In My Home: I offer a safe, spacious, and fun environment for your pup! I have a large home with a secure, designated dog run for added safety. Your dog will also have a built-in playmate — my own well-trained and friendly dog, who’s great at matching energy levels and knows when to give other dogs space. It’s a great setup for high-energy dogs who love to play, but also calm enough for dogs who just want to relax. In Your Home: When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I’ll follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions exactly as you leave them, and I always treat your space with respect. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adjust to your pet’s needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for.
About: I have been around animals my entire life. I have worked with all kinds of sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I currently volunteer with the ARLGP, and love the skills I learn every day from the dogs and other animals there. Whether your dog is the easiest to walk, or needs some special attention (and strength!), I am here to help! Your pets may come back with better manners than when they left :) I am a business owner, and am often home at my property in Topsham enjoying the sunshine or local trails with them. Despite my own travel, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible! We have a small portion of our yard that has a light fence, we usually just walk the dogs or take them to the nearby dog park. Our little guy is an ex-escape artist, so we are always double checking, paying attention, and increasing security on walks / outings! Safety is a huge priority!
“Lindsey watched my two cats for nearly a month while we went away. I could not be happier with her services. From the first meet and greet, it was clear that she loved animals and that the cats loved her! She was very thorough in terms of following the cat's specific routines and meeting their needs - cleaning and filling water fountains, giving each cat their separate and different foods, and cleaning the litter boxes. She provided detailed updates and lots of great photos. When we got home, everything was perfectly clean and in order, and it was clear the cats had been well taken care of. She is also a very pleasant, trustworthy, and easygoing person. I would feel very comfortable leaving Lindsey in charge of any pets!”
About: I grew up with multiple dogs and cats in the home. I am experienced in animal caregiving. I am a big animal lover and am willing to take on challenges. I have a bit of experience in training because my family and I raise and train service dogs. I have a full-time job; however, it is fully remote and provides me with lots of flexibility. I have a car so can provide my own transportation. I respect my clients’ homes and privacy and can provide regular updates and photos if desired. I always prioritize each animal's safety, well-being, and comfort. I take time to build trust with every animal, moving at their pace and paying close attention to their behavior and needs.
