About: I would love to cat sit for you! I have 3 cats of my own. I can administer medications. I can dog sit as well but they need to be very calm doggies. I have experience dog sitting for small to medium sized dogs and a variety of cats. I work 3, 12 hour night shifts a week. I can be available any day I'm off work and I can do visitation before and after my shifts! I can do drop in visits during the day and will stay as long up to 30 minutes. I cannot have any additional animals in my apartment though.
“Emma was a very conscientious and caring choice for our cat. She monitored him during her visits and alerted us to a possible health issue. We were able to schedule a vet appointment soon after we returned. We appreciated the communication that she provided.”

“Toni is a true animal lover! She sent me dozens of photos and truly spoiled my cat. While away I had no worries over quality of care and was able to relax on vacation knowing my cat was loved. Thank you Toni!!!”

About: I've taken care of animals since I was 10. I care for all animals even the fur babies that have anxiety away from home. They will be loved and you will have tons of photos I can pet sit during the early mornings or late at nights. Staying at the animals comfort home so they won't have too much anxiety while you're away. I can care for any animals at the comfort of your animals home. Animals prefer their home more than someone else's. Lesser anxiety for them.
“Phenomenal experience with Charlotte!!! My puppos had the best day with her visits. Having the updates and photos made me so happy. She was attentive and truly went above and beyond with the care of my dogs. Thrilled to have connected with her and cannot wait to use her again!! 🥰 Thank you again for going above and beyond!”

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.
“Rachel provided wonderful care for our three dogs and 2 cats while we were away. She stopped by for drop-in visits and stayed for two overnights. She was very professional and continued to provide photo and written updates through the Rover app. She was attentive to the needs and individual personalities of our pets. Our pets appeared relaxed and happy under her care. We definitely recommend Rachel's services and would love to have her sit for us again!”

About: In addition to owning my own dogs and cats since I was little, I’ve been volunteering to walk dogs for a local shelter since 2017 I work part time, so I have plenty of time to help care for your pets! My schedule is flexible with a bit of notice, and can usually find time in either the morning or the afternoon every day. I can play with, walk and give lots of love to your pets! I'm able to crate, feed and clean up after them as well. Anything to help keep your fur baby safe, happy and healthy!
About: Hello! My name is Cailen and I am currently a Veterinary Assistant. I also have years of experience working at an animal shelter. I am reliable, patient, and passionate about animals. I can guarantee that I will take care of every pet as if they were my own! Growing up, I had a big beautiful dog named Mac. In my early adulthood, I have adopted/rescued a few cats named Nora, Baby, Liza, Mikey and Slater. I now have a sweet cat named Wanda. Over the last five years, I have frequently pet/home sat for friends and co-workers. I love both dogs and cats very much, and would be happy to work with either or both. I would love to chat with you about your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fixed schedule at work. I have availability before and after work, along with the 3 days off every week, Tuesday and the weekend. I care for my clients pets as if they are my own. I want to keep your pets as happy as possible while they are in my care. For dogs, I am comfortable doing walks/hikes and outdoor play. For cats, I will keep their areas clean and am willing to spend extra time to let them adjust to me and feel comfortable.
“We hired Jessica for 6 days of drop in visits for our 2 dogs and 1 cat. She did a great job and we were very comfortable leaving our fur family in her care! She is a knowledgeable and caring animal lover and we would trust her with our pets any time!”

About: I will NEGOTIATE PRICES!! Especially with higher priced stays.

I also offer $20 off your FIRST booking with me with code ELIZAD92501 I've cared for a variety of animals all my life. I really enjoy walking, I LOVE everything about the ocean, as well as the woods and I've spent the majority of my childhood outside in nature. ❤️Animals have gotten me through some of the worst parts of my life and have always been there for me in ways another human could not. I'm good with specialty care, as I've owned rats in the past for quite a few years! They require a very specific healthy diet/great air quality and require much more extensive care than people realize. They require expensive, careful care and planning, much more than your average pet. I've also had pet cats, dogs, mice, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, fish, and chickens in the past. My dream is to live on a farm someday and animals have always been a big part of my life. I know that ALL creatures are very sentient and feel just as deeply as we do, if not deeper. Animals are very intelligent creatures and often know and see things we do not! My environment here is laid back and I'm a very chilled out down to earth kind of person. I like to have everything set up for my pets I'm watching as soon as I get in the door. I'm very attentive and empathetic as well. I'm always sure to send regular updates and photos. If you ever need or want anything during a stay just ask, I'm always very understanding. My boyfriend and I live together and he also enjoys helping care for the pets I take care of. He's is a very loving, intelligent, kind hearted person and just all around a great guy with a pure heart ❤️ I'm at home full time right now, I live next to a park with a walking trail and many side streets where I and other people regularly walk their dogs. If I'm not at home my boyfriend is and vice versa. I usually wake up early in the morning. I've cared for a variety of animals all my life. I really enjoy walking, I LOVE everything about the ocean, as well as the woods and I've spent the majority of my childhood outside in nature. ❤️ I'm a deep thinker and I genuinely care about others emotions deeply. Others Pain, hurt, and happiness affect me as if it were my own and that's probably one of my greatest weaknesses in life. People aren't always there for you, but animals are! They have gotten me through the worst parts of my life and have always been there for me in ways when another person wasn't. I take my own path in life, you could call me a loner lol. I've always been a little different from others and I don't fit in with the big crowd. I'm also part native American and I've always felt and known there is a deeper meaning and connection to everything in life, although I don't know if the two are connected lol.

He's is a very loving, intelligent, kind hearted person and just all around a great guy with a pure heart I always make sure my pets have fresh food and water / clean bowls. I'm accommodating so just ask! Water change at least 2× a day. I like to make sure that they have their food and water station all set up, and their bed and toys set out right after they come in the door so they feel at home. I pick up on cues easily and most always know when to take them out. I also note care details down and keep everything in mind. I send updates regularly and lots of photos. I'm attentive and empathetic too! Having an animal next to me while I'm having family time makes my place feel cozy and homey ❤️ I always double check with the owner about what their pets can and can't have when I want to give snacks or extra treats, and I also have knowledge of what's okay to give them and not.
About: Hello! I'm Jess - I'm from Northern California and moved to Maine last year. Growing up we always had dogs (and sometimes cats), so I learned to take care of pets from a young age. I was the go-to person in my neighborhood for pet-sitting and dog-walking. Currently I have one pup - Bodhi, a 2.5 year old black lab. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies! I'm currently only working through Rover, so my schedule is very flexible right now! I'm available for drop-ins, all-day stays and overnights, as well as for long-term pet-sitting in your home. I love making every animal feel cared for - from playing with them, going on long walks outside, providing pets and cuddles, giving them occasional treats, etc. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also love to send little text and video updates, so you can check in on them while you're away. I've even done FaceTimes with pets and their owners!
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I love all sorts of pets. I have taken care of puppies and kittens all the way to senior animals. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is really flexible. I am available almost all the time. Let me know in advance and I can add you to my calender. I have one cat. Hes been fixed and he's very friendly. He's an indoor outdoor cat. Most of my work will be in your home as drop in visits.
About: I grew up with dogs in the family and with friends with furry friends as well! I’ve always been surrounded by them :) My friend had a Dalmatian puppy while we were in college so I helped out a bunch with their pet needs such as walking, feeding, playing etc. My work schedule right now is pretty clear so most of my whole week is very free to help take care of your pet needs when you need an extra hand! My environment is very pet friendly with multiple parks nearby to play with your furry friend and for them to use the bathroom when needed as well! I can’t wait to help out with your furry friend!
Old Town dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kate is so good with Meatball! He's quite lazy but she always knows what he needs during her drop-ins (it is belly rubs)! He gets daily medication and we have such peace of mind knowing on days we have work conflicts Kate is able to drop in for to give him meds and snuggles.
