“Naomi was great and Milo was happy and well taken care of. She did daily check ins and provided photos of Milo and how he was doing. I could not have asked for better care for Milo while I was on vacation.”


About: Ever since the family cat had kittens when I was four years old, I have been drawn to the care of animals. Honoring the lives of pets as our friends has been a source of inspiration and therapy for myself personally. As a working artist, taking the time to care for animals has been such a privilege and the perfect change of pace while I continue to work on creative projects. I have a German Shepherd that I keep separated from the work I do with other animals. I am located at a small farmhouse in Augusta that has a huge yard with two a-joining fields. There is more than enough room to explore the surround with your pet. I am also an avid walker so exercise is big for me generally.

“Emma was fantastic! She communicated with us and gave us video/pics of both cats. I appreciate that she took the time to hang with our kitties as they do not like to be alone. We’ll definitely use her services again.”


“Sarah was simply amazing!!! I can't say enough good things about her. She truly cared for our two kitties while we were away as if they were her own. It's so freeing to feel able to travel again knowing we have such a caring, reliable sitter. Will absolutely use Sarah's services again!”


About: I have had cats all my life and have been the proud owner of a mini Aussie dog for almost 1.5 years. I have always had a passion for animals and actually have a degree in Animal Health and Behavior. I had dreams of being a zookeeper but unfortunately had to postpone those due to personal reasons. However, my heart is still in taking care of animals/pets, and I'd love to help you with yours! I am currently unemployed and my husband works a 7-5 Mon-Fri job. Therefore I'm available to pet sit or do walks on the weekdays! Late morning-afternoon preferred. I can drive to your house and walk your dog around the neighborhood. I have my own dog as well, and could even have them play at our apartment complex (lots of outdoor space). Because of my skittish cat, it would be difficult to bring your dogs inside my apartment, but can do so if necessary.

“Our kitties had a great time with Erin on her first visit to our house. I gave her a lot of helicopter mom instructions and she met the challenge! We got cute photos of our babies each day and she played with them and took care of our baby boi’s weepy eye, brushed them, and spent time on the porch.”


About: I’ve had cats my whole life and had a golden retriever growing up. I hope to one day get another dog. I will take good care of your furry friends! I am a teacher and mornings are not generally an option but I’m free in the afternoons and evenings and on the weekends, can be flexible! I will always make sure that your pet’s environment is safe while you are away and that all food and water and toys are available! Will give them extra love free of charge!

“Nicole did an excellent job caring for our two cats while we were on a work trip. She was communicative, kind, and sent plenty of pictures. We absolutely recommend her if you're looking for someone to take good care of your pet(s)! Thank you, Nicole!”


About: I’ve had dogs in my house for as long as I have been alive and have a great love for dogs and cats alike. I have years of experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats. I currently work a full time job but have Sunday through Tuesday off every week and have plenty of time to drop in and feed or play with your pet as well as take your pet for a walk. I am un able to take dogs into my home as my current residence does not allow dogs, but I am more than happy to drop in to your home and take care of your pet.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a little kid and helped my parents at my uncle’s farm. I truly love all animals and enjoy their individual personalities. I have experience dog/house sitting dating back to 2000 in the Camden area. Since we moved last year, I’m looking to meet new clients and help you with your furry loved one in the Waterville area. I worked in animal hospitals in my early 20s so I have a great wealth of knowledge to draw from in many areas (but not exotic pets, as none of the veterinarians I worked with were specialtists.) I’m currently working with the ability to come home during lunch. I am available for walkies before work, during lunch, after work and prior to bedtime. Any pet I take care of is treated as if they’re a member of the family. I believe in spoiling pets with love, but keeping the boundaries of the owner so as not to undo any training. Reinforcing good behavior is always a priority.

“Liseli was a lifesaver at the last minute to take care of my Frenchie in the middle of the woods while we were on a family adventure for the day. She was very responsive and communicative with us and very engaged with our pup during her two visits at wwwhat were awkward times of the day. So grateful for her service. Highly recommend.”


About: I have 6 years total experience working at Harbor Road Veterinary Hospital as a Vet Tech/Assistant as well as caring for boarding animals. I have 3 dogs and 3 cats! I’m currently working full-time Monday Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and I spend weekends at home with three dogs and three cats. I will require a harness for walks! I would not want to be in a situation where your dog could get off leash and run off. I am willing to take dogs to the dog park and on walks! depending on the situation I may be able to fit in a walk and/or drop in during the weekdays, just reach out and ask! Boarding - dogs must be dog friendly! Cat friendly would be a plus but the cats are in a separate area of the house blocked off by a gate. I work with Animals 4 days a week at Habor Road Veterinary Hospital as a Veterinary Tech/Assistant. I help provide routine care such as vaccines and Flea/tick/heart worm prevention (under the supervision of a licensed DVM), illness visits, blood panels, nail trims, dematting, etc. With my experience in the Veterinary Field I am confident I can provide a safe trusting environment where your dog/cat will have all their needs met and plenty of love while spending time with me.

“Melissa sat our four cats while we were out of town for the weekend and she did an excellent job. She was communicative and she was attentive to our pets. We’ve always had some minor issues with them at meal time; Melissa is the one who figured out a viable solution. We so appreciate her effort and care. We’ll definitely be calling on Melissa again and have no hesitation in recommending her for your pet sitting needs.”


About: Leave your pets with someone who makes them feel like you never left them. I will treat your babies like my own. They will not go a second without feeling they’re loved and cared for. I have a full time job besides this. It’s a 7:30am-5:00pm Monday-Friday. I also have a part time job. You will know my schedule when we talk to see if it will be a good fit! Eventually I wanna do this as much as I can. So once I get frequent accounts I will be dropping my part time job and go from there! Taking care of someone else’s pets is a privilege. Yes, I am getting paid but I also take your trust in me taking care of your babies seriously. I will do as told and not do anything you wouldn’t approve of. I will take care of your pets the way I would want mine to be cared for. I always like to message frequently to give updates and picture! * ILL BE TAKING A DOG FIRST AID AND CPR CLASS SOON*

Since 2018, she has lovingly cared for her cat, and in 2023, she welcomed a dog into her life—both of whom she absolutely spoils with love, treats, and thoughtful care. Kristen’s pets are her fur babies, and any pet in her care will be showered with attention and affection.

Shiela C.
“Shiela has cared for multiple of my pets countless times and I couldn’t be more pleased, she loves animals more than anything and you can tell just by how quickly she is able to connect with them. Anytime she would show up to take care of any of my pets they would go bezerk seeing her. They were always well cared for in her hands. They would always be playing, going for walks, any time I needed help with pet sitting she was always there. I think Shiela is the best person to be taking care of anyone’s pets.”
