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!

Corina was absolutely fabulous! I couldn’t ask for a better sitter for our sweet old man. She left the funniest descriptions of her time with Zarco that made me smile and made it a little easier to be away. I couldn’t recommend her more!

Brooke was terrific! She sent us plenty of photos, kept us up-to-date on our diabetic cat and was very comfortable calling or texting with questions (since we hadn't provided all of the answers). She was on time and extremely caring. We'll definitely be hiring her again.

Christi was super friendly and helpful. I have seven cats, which can be tricky to manage when feeding, but she took great care of them. Christi was awesome and will definitely reach out again if we need a pet sitter.

Lucinda is a gem! She did drop-in visits to take our dogs for walks and to play with them while we were away. We got daily reports and lots of photos. I felt confident that our pets were well cared for during her visits. She seems very kind, and was very careful and attentive to our dogs needs. I look forward to using her services again and highly recommend her. Thank you, Lucinda, you helped make our vacation stress free.:)

Gardiner, ME, 04345

About: Hello! I am new to Rover but I have been working with animals all my life from a very young age and I have been pet sitting for about 4 years. There were always pets in the home, mostly dogs and cats all my life and I have thorough experience being around animals and knowing how to take care of them. I took a major part in taking care of the puppies that my family bred most of my childhood, I have experience in working with a variety of animals such as dogs, cats, reptiles, roosters/chickens, horses, guinea pigs, etc. Besides working with my own pets I have been pet sitting for around 4 years now and have become very comfortable working with other peoples pets. I pride myself on my attention to detail and focus on making sure your pet/pets are as comfortable as possible. I am currently a student but most of my classes are online so I am very flexible and available pretty much every day of the week currently. I am able to be intuitive and approach every animal with the care and attention that is specific to their needs. I am sensitive to boundaries and always making sure to focus on listening to what they are communicating.

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’ve been around dogs my whole life. My family have relied on me to attend to theirs, giving them company, playing, going on walks, feeding and giving them water. I’m a mom of 3 kids, I have 3 cats, and 2 dog. I absolutely love animals. I can be there for you and your fur babies. I also have a wide availability during the weekday & weekends. For in-home visits, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with fresh food, clean water, and a tidy living space. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates to owners with photos and messages for peace of mind.

Latisha has been perfection! She is so great with my dog, dependable and very responsive. Communication has been a breeze. Latisha sends updates and photos so I know everything is going well. I’m so happy I found her! My dog was nervous and Latisha’s become a trusted friend so quickly, she’s gentle and a nice calm presence which is just what a nervous pup needs.

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.

Topsham, ME, 04086

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!
