House Sitting Orono

“Katharine and her daughter were fantastic! They took the time to really understand our dog’s daily care and feeding routine, they were in contact with pictures and messages every day while we gone, and everything looked just as we had left it when we returned. Best of all it was obvious they both truly love animals, and I know they showered our fur baby with love while we were away. Highly recommend!”

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs my entire life and have always loved all kinds of animals—chickens, goats, dogs—you name it! (Yes, I’ve had all of them!) My family currently has three cats: Harry, Thomas, and Luke. We recently said goodbye to our pug, Cooper, after 15 wonderful years. Two Christmases ago, I brought home our current dog, Kyah, for my family. She’s a Great Pyrenees-Anatolian Shepherd mix and my favorite napping partner! I also taught her a few fun tricks—she can turn around, roll over, speak, and, of course, give a good shake. I have experience with animals of all sizes and personalities, and I’d love the chance to care for yours! I'm currently pursuing a bachelors in nursing. My class schedule takes place in the afternoon, and I have no other priorities besides classes and studying. I'm able to go for as many walks as your dog would like, and give endless scratches! They will never be left alone for more than 3.5 hours (at the most). I'm comfortable giving any medications that are needed. I sit for my Aunts two german shepherds who both receive oral medication, as well one of them receiving a specialized raw diet.

“This was our second time having Samantha care for our dog and cats. She is absolutely wonderful! Our pets love her! We will certainly book her again.”

“Acacia was amazing with my dogs, they loved her! She was timely, thoughtful, playful with the dogs and sent great pics. Can’t wait to have her house/dog sit again!”

Shala B.

“Our dogs loved being with Victoria while we were away on a trip! It was our first time having someone watch them in our house, but it went really smoothly and the daily updates provided us with the peace of mind that they were doing well. We would love to have her watch our dogs the next time we are away!”

“Kayden was great. House and dog sat for us for a week. No issues and communication was good.”

Brette E.

“Deb was fantastic! She was consistent with communication and photos and details which we appreciated so much! We would definitely have her back.”

Julie G.

“Elaine took excellent care of our reactive pups! She watched them for 6 days shortly after we moved into a new house and handled the situation and their quirks like a pro. Will definitely contact her to watch them again in the future!”

Jessica K.

“Cory was awesome: very communicative and consistent in updates, he let us know whenever he would need to leave the house for a little while (which was also communicated ahead of time), and kept our place clean. Very capable and confident, which is especially needed for one of our dogs who tends to be more reactive. I’m so grateful we went with him and we genuinely look forward to using his services again in the future!”

Sav L.

“Maria was great as our house and dog sitter!! Highly recommend. Great communication and very attentive. Our pups love her!”

“Autumn did an amazing job with my dog and cat. My dog has epilepsy and this was my first time away from him since his diagnosis, and he did great with Autumn. She was great in communication, kept the house immaculate, and everyone did well. They were very well taken care while I was gone. So appreciative and I highly recommend Autumn’s services.”

Tarese G.

“Abigail took such great care of our pups and the house. Clear communication, asked great questions, so considerate of our senior dogs, sent photos, and the dogs loved her!”

Carl W.

“Brooke is amazing! We have a reactive dog that needs a few introductions before feeling comfortable with new people. Brooke took extra time with us and our pup to ensure everyone was comfortable for an overnight stay on our wedding day. She has such compassion for animals and I can’t recommend her enough!”

Bre D.

“Andy was amazing with Snipper! She took such great care of her and made sure she was happy and comfortable the entire time. It was clear that Andy spent a lot of time playing with Snipper and giving her plenty of attention, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing Snipper was in such good hands. I highly recommend Andy to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you so much, Andy!”

About: I am very intuitive, caring and protective when it comes to pet sitting and dog walking. I have been an animal lover for my whole life, and I will Treat your animals with the same care that I give my own three! (1 dog, 2 cats at home!) I have worked part time with a flexible schedule with kids and also I work as a writer and artist! My schedule is very flexible. I am very clean, organized, and intuitive about both others’ pets and my own pets! I am respectful of others’ homes with the understanding that this is your sacred space.

“Alex is fabulous with our two pups one of which is very anxious and reactive. We just traveled out of state for a week and she stayed at our house with the dogs, she provided great updates and the pups and house are in great shape upon our return!”

About: What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and genuine love for animals. I grew up with a cat and later cared for our family German Shorthaired Pointer for many years. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll follow your care instructions carefully to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe. I’ll treat your pet like family and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I work primarily from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I occasionally work from the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but my schedule is flexible. Our home is calm, loving, and pet-friendly. My children (ages 10 and 12) are kind, respectful, and love animals. Any interaction they have with your pet is always supervised by me. We offer boarding on weekends and weekday stays of up to one week (Friday through Friday), ensuring your pet receives consistent care, attention, and lots of love. I live in a clean, cozy townhouse with plenty of nearby walking paths and open green spaces for walks, exercise, and fresh air. To ensure every pet has enough room to relax and feel comfortable, I only accept small to medium-sized dogs up to 40 pounds for boarding. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions, so they feel safe, happy, and like at home.

“There’s not enough space on this page to mention all the wonderful things about Autumn. In a word, unbelievable. She is exceptionally caring, thoughtful, and meticulous. She went well above and beyond our expectations. She’s an outstanding communicator and we knew our pet was in the best possible hands while we were away. For honorable mention, she had to manage a tree falling on her vehicle during her stay. She gave our dog an enormous amount of attention and love in addition to leaving our home in immaculate condition. We can’t thank her enough.”

About: Caring for animals has been apart of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets and owned several of my own as an adult, so I know firsthand what it means to love an animal like family and what owners need when they hand them off to someone else. I'm comfortable with the full range of needs: puppies, senior pets, animals with medical conditions or special diets, and multiple pets at once. I've administered daily medications, followed strict feeding routines, and handled it all without missing a beat. Because I don't currently have pets of my own, I bring a lot of enthusiasm to every sit. Honestly, I miss having animals around and your pets get the full benefit of that. I take this seriously enough that clients have flown me across the country to care for their animals, which I think says more than anything else I could write in a bio. If you're looking for someone who will love your pets like their own and give you genuine peace of mind while you're away, I'd love to meet both you and them. Pet care isn't something I squeeze into my day. It is my day. I'm fully available and not juggling a rigid 9-to-5, which means your pets get consistent attention and care throughout the day rather than just morning and evening check-ins. Walks, feeding times, medications, cuddles, everything happens on their schedule, not mine. Whether you need someone for a quick drop-in or an extended house sit, I'm flexible and can make it work. I primarily care for pets in their own home because I believe animals are happiest in a familiar environment. Uprooting them from their space adds unnecessary stress, and keeping them in their element means they stay calmer, eat better, and settle in faster. When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I stick to your pet's existing routine as closely as possible, follow all instructions to the letter, and keep everything clean and tidy throughout my stay. I send regular photo updates so you always know how things are going without having to ask. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy pet and a home that looks exactly as you left it. The trust you place in me when you hand over your keys and your animals is something I take seriously, and I make sure you feel that from day one.

“Shea was so wonderful to our 3 dogs. Her caring nature is a comfort and lets us rest easy knowing she's there. 11/10 recommend Shea to take care of the pups again!”
