Pet Sitting in Old Town

“Kate was great with Meatball! He needs meds daily and it was such a relief that Kate was able to get him to cooperate with his pills. Kate was responsive, timely, and gave Meatball lots of love!”

“Kiara was amazing. Our dog (Millie) was extremely happy. She went on car rides, and even had doggie play dates. Kiara is very responsive and kept us updated the whole time. We will absolutely use Kiara again.”

About: Hi! I’m a student at the University of Maine and a big animal lover. I have three cats back at home and experience watching small dogs, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets and making sure they’re happy and safe. I’m a student at UMaine and pet care fits well into my routine because I’m looking for flexible work. I’m able to plan my schedule around classes and make sure pets get consistent care, attention, and time throughout the day. I provide care for pets in their own homes, where they are most comfortable and familiar with their environment. I have experience caring for pets in their homes and always follow their routines, feeding schedules, and care instructions closely. I prioritize safety, trust, and cleanliness, and make sure pets feel secure, well cared for, and comfortable while their owners are away.

“Lucy was great with our boys. She provided excellent feedback and was very communicative. We felt they were in good hands and look forward to working with her again.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for 2 years now, starting with helping out with my family. But now I have been pet sitting for friends and family, and around 9 months ago I started working at a dog daycare, helping them out there! As a current nursing student, I am willing to work on a schedule that works for you and your pup! I am able to help anytime before or after my classes, and even in between! When it comes to safety, I am willing to do whatever is most comfortable for you and your pup. Whether this is crating your pup during the day or letting them out of leash outside!

“We have an anxious, slow-to-warm-up-to-you dog, and Ellianna was great with him. She took the time and had the patience to win him over. Communication was prompt and her report was thorough. We have already booked her for another stay!”

About: I have done dog sitting for multiple different families, including overnight care for a family with two dogs, one medium and one large. Since moving to college and the passing of my childhood lab, I’ve been missing having a dog around and would love to hang out with some + make extra cash. I am a full time college student and I am a reliable dog person. I go for walks all the time and would love for your furry friend to join! I am pretty available from Friday to Monday. I have 2 in person classes and one in person internship, and then i have one online class and one online internship. So I don’t have many in-person obligations on those days. I can tend to the owners preferences for how they want their pet to be looked after, whether that be crating, leashed walks, letting out, etc. I live in a pretty small apartment but we’ve had dogs stay here before, I would prefer to provide services at the dogs home however. I am also willing to discuss extra house chores if needed!

About: My whole family loves animals, and I grew up with a wide variety of pets—from dogs and cats to chickens and even snakes. I often helped care for many of my neighbors’ pets as well, which gave me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m currently in my third year of college at the University of Maine, and I truly miss spending time with and caring for animals. I’d love the opportunity to give your pet the same attention, patience, and affection I would give my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a third-year student at the University of Maine, my class schedule is consistent, which gives me flexibility to plan walks, drop-ins, feedings, and playtime. I’m used to organizing my day and sticking to routines, so I can be reliable about arriving on time and following any specific instructions your pet needs. Spending time with animals is one of the best parts of my week, and I love making it a priority in my schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking times, exercise needs, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, play, and affection, while also respecting the rules and expectations you have for your home. I keep a clean and safe environment, monitor behavior to be sure they’re comfortable, and will always communicate updates or concerns. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pet is happy, well cared for, and treated like family while you’re away.

“I needed help with my very scared/reactive dog and Britney did an amazing job getting to know him and helping him feel comfortable over a number of visits. She clearly knows dogs!”

“She is very nice and took a lot of pictures of him! Thanks for your help a lot!”

Tantai R.

“This couple made a stressful week so much better. We did not have to worry about our dog while our daughter was born. We will definitely use them in the future. Thank you both.”

“Lily provided excellent care for our cat Hobson. Our directions were followed completely and we enjoyed the daily photos. Hobson is in excellent condition after this booking. We are very grateful.”

“Allie was absolutely amazing. This was my first time leaving my 2 fur babes for a week and she kept me up-to-date, sent pictures, and was readily available anytime I wanted to check in. My dogs absolutely loved her and I know they will miss seeing her. She made my first Rover experience a smooth and easy one and I will definitely be booking Allie's services again!”

About: I am home full time with my 4 kids while my husband works as a roofing supervisor for a construction company. The kids are all 6 and under and accustomed to animals. We have fostered and adopted animals from the shelter (though currently we only have a cat). As long as your pet is good with kids, we would be happy to look after them for you! Bathroom breaks for your pet can be worked around the kids' nap and mealtimes. Other than that our day is very flexible and open to the needs of your pet(s). Animals will be kept in the home unless they are having supervised playtime or bathroom breaks. Bathroom breaks will be consist of walking with a leash.

About: I have taken care of dogs of multiple breeds. My friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk or house sit their pets. I enjoy being around animals and being outside with them as much as possible. I hope I can do the same for your furry family member! I am currently an undergraduate student at the University of Maine. I incorporate walks into my daily routine and would love a furry friend accomplice. I am also available for pet sitting on occasion! I follow the pet's established routine for meals, walks, and potty breaks while securing doors and gates to prevent escapes. I respect house rules on guests, thermostat use, and off-limit areas.

About: Hello! I love all pets (furry, feathered and scaled) and have extensive experience providing animal care. Growing up we had fish, dogs, turtles, snakes, guinea pigs and a cat. My mother also made sure we gave back to our community volunteering at animal shelters where I helped post-op kittens and puppies heal in comfort. Currently I am the number one pet sitter all of my friends call when they leave town and was told that if I was smart, I would sign up for Rover to expand my care network. I am currently working on a PhD in Biomedical Science and make my own schedule. With notice I can fit potty walks into my daily routine, evening check ins or even overnight visits to care for your furry friends. When it comes to animals I try my best to work with compassion, patience and lots of love. I just recently adopted a new fur baby named Grim from the Pixel fund, a non-profit organization that rescues animals from kill shelters. I have him harness trained so we can read and play outside!

“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 many dogs in my neighborhood. Various tasks such as, dog sitting full time, or just taking on a short walk and feeding dinner. I’m a full time student, but I have a lot of free time in my schedule during the week and weekends. I love all dogs and work very well with them! I do not have the space to care for dogs, but I am comfortable in other owners homes, and I am very comfortable with any dog that I meet.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, from birth to now! In total i’ve had about 12 dogs, split between my mom and dads house. Right now I have 2 dogs at my mom and 2 dogs and 2 cats at my dads. I’ve dog sat for my neighbors and friends multiple times which included feeding, letting them out to go potty, playing with them, going for a walk/run, taking them for drives, cuddling, or having sleepovers with them etc! Loving and caring for dogs is my specialty, i enjoy them so much! Currently I work one other job at a restaurant near my home that has very flexible hours and right now i’m only working twice a week. I would much rather take care of dogs full time for anyone that needs it instead. I can work Monday through Friday from 7am-5pm! My whole back yard is fenced in, with a big yard and plenty of toys and 2 doggies to play with. All of the treats and food are hidden so that no animals can get to them. Including all human food is put away!

“Jazlynne was awesome for our senior cat who struggled while we were away in March. Not this time! She administered two insulin shots daily with no issue. She’s attentive to the pet’s needs and cares for them if they were her own.”
