Cat Sitting in Poland

About: My first Jobs as a child were farm sitting for my neighbors and working on an angora rabbit farm. I have always loved and cherished animals. Animals have been drawn to me my whole life. I developed my skills going into the veterinary field as a technician, I've worked with large animals horses , pigs, cows, llamas , alpacas , tortoise , lizards , snakes, monkeys, even helped in surgery on a lion. I have experience with medications , injections, transdermal , and oral medications . Also subcutaneous fluids . I also have experience with handicapped animals that may need bladder expressions or need potty walks in wheel chairs , experience with this is work and I also had my own wheel chair bound dog. I'm honest and would let you know if I'm not comfortable or feel qualified enough to take care of your babies I will let you know. I've been in the veterinary field over 25 years. I've worked in general practice , urgent care , and specialty /emergency . On weekends I'm available to house/pet sit pretty much anywhere within Maine and even possibly NH , of course allowing me time to get there . Try me I'm always up for a road trip extra fees may apply . Weekends for me are Friday after 6 pm through Tuesday morning when I head out to work . During my work week Tuesday morning through Friday . If you have dogs that need to be let out mid day , you need to be within a 10 minute drive from Warren ave in Portland . That way I can go let them out on my lunch break . If you have cats only or other pets that do not need midday care I can house sit /pet sit anywhere within an hour from Portland Maine . I can travel back and forth to work but be there at night and morning to take care of your pets needs . Always reach out if this doesn't make sense . Your pets care is priority and I will try to help you out but if my availability is not what is best for your friends I will be the first to let you know . I currently do not take pets into my home , just because I am not here most of the day . I will let people know if this changes

About: Who's a good dog? All of them. My step-dog is the love of my life, and I'm the person who talks to animals more than humans at a party. I have experience with: Dogs, cats, fish, rodents, horses, chickens, other birds, reptiles, and more. As a former field biologist, I handled a wide variety of animals and completed Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) training. I'm open to caring for almost any critter. Send me a message so we can discuss what your critter needs. New-ish to Rover. Previously, all my clients were by word of mouth in extreme southern Maine and New Hampshire. We recently moved, and I decided it was time to join Rover. My schedule is variable, so just message me so we can discuss what your critter needs. This summer I have lots of availability. Thank you! I am currently not taking client's pets into my own home. I am open to a variety of conditions for home visits/walks/play dates/check-ins. Just send me a message so we can discuss your set up and what your critter needs.

“Phenomenal rover sitter. Always take good care of our dogs. Always tells us about any concerns. Goes above and beyond what is expected from a rover sitter. I have already booked again. Would recommend to anyone !”

“Second time having Jessica babysit my two cats- she is just fantastic! In addition to regular care, gave them attention, playtime, and treats, won them right over! She provides great updates and photos- I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were safe and loved.”

Sonya H.

“Amanda helped us out in a pinch and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter! She took great care of our two kitties and we would absolutely hire her again!”

About: Pets have always been a big part of my life, gaining responsibility with them as I grew up. I have two family dogs currently: a 14-year-old medium-sized rescue mutt and a 7-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog that I love and cherish! I also have one cat. I have helped in caring for and training them for quite a few years. I am used to following feeding schedules and I love a good dog walk. I have basic training skills and also have experience dealing with minor behavioral issues. I also have helped care for my older siblings' dogs (both of them have sweet Golden Retrievers) and my aunt's two labs. I love all of these dogs (and my cat) and I would love yours too! I am currently self-employed, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Occasionally I work weekends and would be away, but I will update my Rover availability as that comes about. I am open to stays of any length because of my current schedule! I am not able to offer stays in my own home, but I am available to stay at your home and care for your dogs there. I have reliable transportation so I can commute to and from your home as needed. I will keep your pets company in a space that is familiar and comfortable to them.

“Olivia was very professional and easy to work with. Her updates and photos helped us feel at ease while we were away. Our cat can be needy and challenging sometimes so I appreciated her patience and caring nature when working with him! Thank you Olivia!”

“Jennifer is a dream! She loves animals, connects with them, and wants to understand what is needed. She communicated before and after. She went above and beyond. It allowed my husband and I to have one less thing to worry about!”

“Eliot is the absolute best, she walked our dog for a few months and I am so sad to not have her around anymore! She was so sweet with Boz and fantastic with communication and sending photos. She even did a nighttime stop in (very outside of our normal schedule) on our wedding night to feed our dog and take him for a walk. Good luck in your new ventures Eliot! Your new clients will be so lucky to have you!”

“We had Matt do a couple drop-ins over NYE for our dog Ruby, everything went smoothly. We were provided updates and he was very attentive of Ruby's needs. During the meet and greet you could tell he was comfortable with dogs and Ruby liked him. Would recommend.”

“Haley took excellent care of my cats while I was out of town. Knowing they were taken care of really allowed me to relax and enjoy time away. I’d 100% book again, and would recommend to others who need reliable care. Haley also sends really great photos during check-ins - what a bonus! :)”

About: I have been trusted with my family and friends furry companions for almost twenty years. I have had my own sweet boy for eight years. I and very flexible and can make most anything work. I don’t mind a little bit of traveling and can get up early if needed. I am very capable of following instructions as to how best to care for your companion(s), and will always leave your house secure. I have my own dog I like to bring along if the situation permits, a sweet boy who loves to play and snuggle with everyone.

“Great communication. All of us very happy! Dogs voted to have her come back soon😉”

“Jonas has been great with our cat, spending videos and keeping us updated. They also waded through 17” of snow when we were out of town to feed our cat, and changed around their schedule to bring a package in for us before the snow came. Would highly recommend!”
