1. Varana J.
“Varana has the perfect calm but upbeat temperament that my dog Harper loves. She arrived and departed dependably and sent adorable pictures. Harper had a good run, did her business and ate supper. I’m so happy with Varana and I’m sure Harper is too!”

5. Elizabeth C.
“Elizabeth is one of the most caring, dedicated people I have ever seen when taking care of her own pets, or “dog sitting” the neighbors/friends pets. She is so attentive and actually very intuitive to an animal’s needs. Animals feel safe and loved around her.”

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 had that as a specialization.) I’m currently working from home doing some freelance work and have many opportunities to go for walkies. We are currently without a dog in our home, and I’m looking to get out more. 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.
12. Alexis V.
“Very attentive and so good with my dogs! Alexis is an amazing sitter and takes such good care of my dogs!”
13. Sydney J.
“Sydney did an excellent job taking care of my dog Apollo. She was timely, followed all instructions, and made me feel safe leaving Apollo in her care.”

About: I raised my own herd of dairy goats starting when I was 11 years old. I have been working with dogs since I was 16, I worked at a doggy daycare for 3 years and I now work at a shelter. I have loved all sorts of animals from a very young age. I also have experience with senior dogs and dogs that required specific medical care (diabetes etc.) I am always willing to learn the proper care for your pet. I currently work full time, but I will gladly stop by after work to give some love to your furry friends. Evenings typically work best! All of the animals in my home are very well cared for, up to date on all vaccines, and very happy. I have a variety of animals including reptiles.
15. Jessica S.
About: I provide one-on-one, personalized care, ensuring each pet gets the attention and love they deserve. I have experience with senior pets, dogs with anxiety, and those with special medical or dietary needs. I send daily updates with pictures, so you’re always in the loop about how your pet is doing. I offer flexible scheduling and last-minute bookings, and I’m always reliable—your pet’s care comes first. For active dogs, I can offer long walks, hiking trips, and plenty of playtime, ensuring they’re exercised and entertained. I am self employed and manage my day to day schedule with lots of flexibility. I am happy to coordinate my schedule to accommodate you and your pet's needs! When caring for pets in either my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment that caters to each pet’s specific needs. My home is fully pet-proofed and provides cozy spaces for lounging, sleeping, and playing. I ensure that pets have access to toys, beds, and safe areas to explore. I follow the pet's regular feeding and potty schedules to keep their routine consistent. I take time to learn about their habits to make them feel at home. Depending on the pet’s needs, I offer regular walks, backyard play, or indoor activities to ensure they stay active and happy. If the pet is anxious or shy, I provide a quiet space to relax and make sure they feel secure with gradual introductions to new surroundings. In your home I maintain the pet’s normal routine, from feeding and walks to playtime and bathroom breaks. I ensure their home is kept tidy and comfortable for both them and the pet parent. Many pets feel more secure in their familiar environment. I take care to create a calm atmosphere by minimizing disruptions and ensuring they have their favorite toys, bed, and comfort items. I offer tailored care based on the pet’s unique needs, whether that’s medication, specific diets, or behavioral routines. Just like in my home care, I update the client regularly with pictures and reports, ensuring they are always in the loop.

18. Maleeka D.
“Maleeka pet set for my shitzu Louie. She was very compassionate and loving . She has a wonderful way with animals a very calming effect. She is the only person I would leave my dog with.”
19. Brandon T.
“Brandon was great to work with and took good care of our cat. Our house was also in good shape and as we left it. . Quixo was happy and healthy when we returned from our trip. I would hire Brandon again and recommend him to others .”
20. Alexandra D.
“Hello, I have known Alexandra for 7 years. She's extremely compassionate and caring towards all flora and fauna. Alexandra has been constantly moving since she finished graduate school, so she has never quite had the means, permission, or the space to fairly raise a puppy of her own. Though this is true, this is probably the first thing she will do when this becomes a possibility. She is constantly volunteering herself to care for her friend's and family's dogs, and has handled many breeds both big and small. Alexandra's love for dogs is real, I couldn't think of anyone better for the job!”
