Pet Sitting Orono

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.

“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!”

“Allie always takes great care of my furry family and provides everything we need! Thank you so much for giving them the love and time they deserve”

“Amber was the first person I have ever used through Rover and I was impressed. She was very compliant to my requests and extremely helpful. She took good care of my cat in my absence, which wasn’t exactly easy considering how shy Cleo can be with strangers. But from Amber’s updates it was evident that she really tried to bond with her and gained her trust towards the end of the week. Highly recommend.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for 3 years now, starting with helping out with my family. But now I have been pet sitting for friends and family, and around 2 years 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!

“As always, exceptional care from Justin and Eva! We're so comfortable with these two caring for our animals and highly recommend to anyone in the Bangor area!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is more than just a job, it’s something I genuinely love. I am the owner of Mindsett Paws, my pet care business dedicated to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care for dogs and cats. In addition to running my own pet care business, I have worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility for the past year, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. This experience has taught me how to safely manage group play, recognize canine body language, administer medications when needed, and ensure pets are comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, and dogs that may need a little extra patience and reassurance. Whether your pet loves adventures, playtime, snuggles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I tailor my care to their individual needs. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family member. My goal is to provide the same level of care, communication, and attention that I would want for my own pets. You can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. I am also a veteran, dependable, and detail-oriented, and I take great pride in creating a safe, loving environment for every pet in my care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As the owner of Mindsett Paws and someone who has worked professionally in dog daycare and boarding, caring for animals has become a regular part of my lifestyle, not just a side job. My schedule allows me flexibility throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I am an active person who enjoys spending time outdoors, so dogs in my care receive plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship. At home, my family and I have friendly, well-socialized dogs of our own, so our days are already centered around pet care, routines, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for animals. Whether your pet is staying overnight, stopping by for daycare, or needs a drop-in visit, I work hard to maintain their normal routine and make them feel right at home. I also prioritize communication and provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and connected while they’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I am caring for your pet in my home or yours, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel relaxed and secure. In my home, pets are treated like family. I provide a clean, safe, and supervised environment with plenty of attention, exercise, potty breaks, enrichment, and affection. I carefully introduce dogs when appropriate, monitor interactions, and never leave pets unattended in situations that could compromise their safety. I follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, and any special care requirements provided by the owner. For drop-in visits and walks, I treat every client’s home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I ensure pets have fresh water, meals, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and companionship while you’re away. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and well-being and will communicate any concerns immediately. As a pet care professional and dog daycare employee, I have experience recognizing canine body language, monitoring group interactions, and creating positive experiences for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: to provide dependable, trustworthy care and make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and at home.

About: I grew up on a farm with horses, pigs, sheep, cows, a dog and a cat. I particpated at a young age taking care of them (feeding, brushing, removing manure). Throughout my life I have had personal pets as well as helped care for pets of family and friends. I currently work full-time remotely M-F 8:00am-5:00pm. I also have a 9 year old son. I am typically available weekday evenings after work and weekends. I have a runner that extends from the side entrance of my house to my detached garage with a partially fenced backyard. I live in a safe neighborhood and have great neighbors. Three of my neighbors on my street work for the police department.

About: I have cared for the dogs and cats of family members, friends and coworkers when needed, for years. I personally have a dog and cat. My dog is a sweet boy but he is reactive to other dogs. Before him I had never worked with/known a dog that has reactive tendencies. I have learned a lot over the last 7-8 years about reactivity, especially dogs being reactive towards other dogs. I have cared for as many as three dogs and three cats at a time including puppies and senior dogs. I currently work full time but have developed a good schedule for when I do check in/drop ins for those I pet sit for. If someone is out of town and leaving their pets at home for a check in/drop-in schedule I would typically drop in, in the morning before work, around lunch time, around dinner time and again before bed if the owner requests. I have recently cared for three dogs and a cat for almost two weeks for a coworker and this schedule worked well. I will adhere to any instructions that a pet owner provides. I will make sure that the animals are well cared for and report any concerns I may have for the pets while caring for them. Whether it is a drop in to let a dog out to go to the bathroom at lunch time, walking a dog, feeding the pets, etc.

About: My name is Tori Six and I am 31 years old. I’m currently living in Milford, but willing to travel to surrounding greater Bangor areas. I have many years of experience with all animals. I was the owner of a lab mix, a mini dachshund, many Dalmatians, and multiple cats. I’m comfortable with any animal usually, you could call me Pocahontas. I have many years of experience with all aspects of training puppies, including some doggie sign language for commands. I have connections and great resources to parks/areas to play outside and walk. I am available for any pet care needs. I have knowledge of taking care of animals with medical needs from assisting with walking, changing, medications, etc. could do some minor grooming but not certified. I am very compassionate with animals and will treat them like my own family. I hope to be booking with you! I work remotely so have a pretty flexible schedule for any pets needs. I do not have any animals currently. I am a homebody who always prioritize the animals needs. I treat every animal I work with like my own family. Whether it’s your senior animal needing hand feeding or a young animal needing play time I’m there! Always open to anything you need.

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs for my whole life from childhood on. Taking care of family pets, as well as now pet sitting for friends when they go away or stopping in to let the animals out through the day for bathroom breaks or feeds. I am currently working part-time with 3-4 free days during the week, during which I spend most of it working/playing with my dog. I have a fenced in area for dogs to play and have a crate if needed. A friendly Australian shepherd lives with me and can provide company if wanted.

“Very reliable and great communicator!”

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!

“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!”
