Amber was very communicative with us and took great care of our cat! We forgot to set up our automatic feeder and Amber set it up for us when she checked in.

Kate is amazing! Our grandkids were visiting and we had all their towels and suits on the porch. It had started to rain and Kate picked everything up, folded everything and brought everything inside. She also brought two big packages in that were on the porch. PLUS took amazing care of our elderly dog!! A+ care!!

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.

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 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!

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.

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I've been involved in the training of 5 puppies, and have a lot of experience caring for larger breeds, particularly active and playful doggos. I have a cat of my own whom I love dearly, and love to make new furry friends. My past experience includes volunteering at a local boarding kennel, caring for senior dogs and administering medication, taking active pups on fun activities like swimming or hiking, and being a live in sitter during week-long getaways. Whether you need someone to stop in and check on your pup or someone to give your companion love and affection while you're away, I'm happy to help! I currently am taking one summer class and am working part-time jobs, so I have time particularly during the morning/midday and on weekends free to take care of your pets. I have a car cover for the backseat of my car, so any adventures we take I am prepared for. I like to earn pet's trust, so letting them come to me and show me what their comfortable with is key.

Allie was wonderful! Professional, courteous, and a great communicator. She took great care of our 50 lb lab, gave her lots of cuddles, and took some of the best photos. We would definitely hire her again!

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!

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: 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.

About: What sets me apart is the care and intention behind everything I do 🤍🐾 I’m the owner of Mindsett Paws, built around creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet. I don’t just “watch” pets, I care for them like they’re my own. I currently work at a dog (and cat!) daycare, where I care for a variety of breeds, personalities, and energy levels. This has helped me learn how to read behavior, manage different temperaments, and provide structured, dependable care. ✨ I’m especially experienced with: • Dogs of all energy levels • Anxious or sensitive pets • Creating a calm, structured environment • Cat care (feeding, litter, attention on their terms) I’m reliable, patient, and very attentive, making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. Because they’re not just pets… they’re family 🤍🐾 Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life 🤍🐾 I currently work at a dog (and cat!) daycare, so I’m used to being around animals daily and caring for different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Because of that, pet care naturally fits into my schedule and is something I truly enjoy. Outside of work, I structure my routine to make sure I have the time, energy, and attention to give each pet consistent, reliable care. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or boarding, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment, just like I do with Mindsett Paws. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I build my routine around 🤍🐾 they feel as comfortable and at ease as possible 🤍🐾 In a client’s home, I follow their normal schedule closely, feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions—while keeping the environment calm and consistent. I also make sure to give plenty of attention, updates, and reassurance while you’re away. In my home, I provide a clean, safe, and cozy space where pets can relax and feel at home. I focus on structure, supervision, and creating a low-stress environment, while still giving them plenty of love, play, and one-on-one attention. Through Mindsett Paws, my goal is always the same— ✨ Keep your pet safe ✨ Keep their routine consistent ✨ And make sure they feel comfortable and cared for like they’re my own Because they’re not just pets… they’re family 🤍🐾

Lily was great with my two cats and followed a very long set of directions wonderully! Both have daily medications that she was able to give with no problems, and her daily photos and notes let me know how they were doing. She's easy to talk to and very kind, which my cats both picked up on quickly. They aren't usually friendly with newcomers, but they let her pet and play with them almost immediately. Thanks, Lily!

About: I’ve always been someone who’s taken care of animals for friends and family! I will love your fur babies as if they are my own!!! * Experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments * Comfortable with puppies, seniors, and shy/nervous pets * Can follow specific routines (feeding, meds, crate training, etc.) * Pet sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking I work a full-time schedule (8 AM – 5 PM), but I plan my pet care routine carefully to make sure every pet still gets consistent attention and care. For pets that are comfortable being alone during the workday, I’m a great fit. I’m especially attentive during mornings and evenings to make sure they get the exercise, care, and affection they need. If check-ins are need let me know and I can incorporate this into my work day! My focus is to keep your pets daily routine as normal as possible to ensure their safety, care, and wellbeing while you are away! I do best with detailed instructions about your pets feeding, bathroom, walking, and daily routines to provide the best care for them I send regular updates with photos/videos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
