“Carla is the best! She sat for our four dogs, including a needy Italian Greyhound. She is super experienced with dogs and treats them like her own. Great communication too. Thank you Carla!”

“Liseli is amazing with our big dog, Tycho. He gets really excited when he sees her. I felt very comfortable with Liseli staying in our home and taking care of our little buddies.”

“Jessica is great and the Littles and Henry the cat loved her. I appreciated the photos and checkins while I was away and did not worry. Everyone had fun. Jessica arrived on time, stayed at my home and was there when I returned. Everything went smoothly. Thank you so much! Doreen”

About: I have taken care of family, friends, and neighborhood, pets since I was young! From meeting all of the new pets I have learned that each has their own unique personality-no two pets are the same! With that comes different approaches to earn their trust and create a bond. I am currently on summer break from teaching so my days are pretty available for the next few weeks. Once school starts my availability will change to the later afternoon. I am a very versatile pet sitter! I have spent time with pets where they just need some company and they get all the love, some want all the love and a nice walk outside. My two fur babies are polar opposite energy wise so I know how important it is to meet the needs and play with one of my cats, and how the other just needs someone to give her a lot of love while she naps!
“Erin was amazing! She answered promptly and took me on very last minute. My two dogs loved her and she made me feel very comfortable: as someone who has never used a sitter before! Will be booking again !!”


“Ann was a great pet and house sitter. Our pets (Oscar & Lacey) loved her, I actually think they miss her. She was a great communicator and sent us photos while we were away. We would definitely ask Ann to sit again and again!”


“Jedan is amazing!!! She stayed at our house for about a week and cared for (and spoiled!) Kimmie as if she were her own, buying her toys/treats and even cooking for her. She kept us constantly updated with messages and photos and was extremely respectful. Looking forward to booking her again!”

“Libby was an excellent sitter. I was in town for a graduation celebration at the University of Maine and Libby watched my puppy while I attended an event. She arrived on time at my vacation rental and took excellent care of my puppy. I am so grateful that I was able to leave my puppy with someone I could trust and he had so much fun with Libby. I highly recommend Libby for all your pet needs.”

“Melissa did an awesome job taking care of my two fur babies for a week. I recommend her for any of your needs. I have one dog who has to have medication very morning and one dog who is anxious over everything and I am more than pleased to have come home to a happy home.”
“Kirsten was awesome! We had just moved into a new house and it was a little chaotic, but Kirsten had no issues with staying in a half unpacked house. She sent frequent photos of our boys which was very appreciated. I think she genuinely enjoyed her time with them.”

About: I am always the first to be called when a friend needs doggy daycare or house sitting with dogs, cats, and often other animals. I’ve fostered and found homes for rescues internationally and domestically. I’ve worked for a doggy daycare where I was responsible for 50-70 dogs with a crew of 2-4 people. I also spent a few months off and on taking care of 10-22 huskies while part of the herd were sled racing. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and enjoy seeing all of their unique personalities. I’ve loved animals since I was small. We always had cats when I was little, as well as ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, rabbits, my turtle boy China B, parakeets, and a Senegal parrot foster. I was surprised with a rescue dog when I was 10, Hemingway. It was an amazing experience and I helped train Hemmy to be a service dog for my grandmother who was visually impaired. Winter rates are now $250/day for basic overnights, includes 3 pets. Will adjust include extra rates accordingly to animals and household needs. I’m self employed and have the flexibility to set my daily schedule around your animals needs and regular routine. Lots of scritches, play time and love are part of my commitment to your pets. I am available for short and long walks (depending on your animals needs and ability), playtime, companionship, love and affection, meals and snacks as well as monitoring medication if needed.
About: A lifetime animal lover with 5+ years of experience. I pride myself on my thoroughness and dedication to providing for you and your furry family members! I am a teacher, so come summer time I will have a large amount of availability to walk or pet sit! As of right now, I work M-F 7:45-2:45 but could arrange to let your dog out for a potty break around 11:30. I am very attentive and always make sure to keep your pet’s safety a number 1 priority. Monitoring them when in the house/on walks is a must and keeping in contact with you about any possible issues that may come up are always important.
