House Sitting in Port Kent

“What we most loved about Hailey was how quickly our animals took to her — our dogs were leaning against her within minutes, and even the cats who hide came out and let her pet them the very first night! It was comforting to leave our pets in the care of someone who clearly loves and understands animals. And though we ended up rushed and didn't have as much time as I wanted to orient her, she perfectly remembered and followed all instructions. We've already booked her again.”

“My Fur Baby most definitely enjoyed her time with Whitney! Whitney was very communicative and took great care of her. Will be booking again”

“Nicole was awesome and took great care of our guys while we were on vacation. She sent the sweetest pictures and videos, and kept us updated on any deliveries etc, to the house. We would definitely recommend Nicole and will reach out to her again to house/pet sit!!”

About: I’ve had a dog in my household my entire life. I worked on a farm for two summers so I have a lot of experience with animal care. I’ve been a pet sitter in some capacity for roughly 8 years and I have experience with puppies, dogs of all ages, and dogs with anxiety and trauma issues. During high school I regularly took care of two dogs with anxiety and high energy. I did my senior year thesis project in high school on dog behavior, training and reactivity. As part of my project I got my dog and cat first aid certification from the Red Cross, which has since lapsed while I was getting my EMT license. Also as well as working for Rover for a couple summers, after high school I worked at a dog kennel for close to a year which saw up to about 40 dogs a day. Now I’m in college and looking to spend some time with dogs since we don’t have one of our own. I’ll take excellent care of your furry family members if given the opportunity! I work 3 days a week but am out of school for the summer so I have plenty of other time for walks and drop ins! As of right now I don’t offer any service in my home. For my other services, in Burlington we live in close proximity to a lot of little walks and hikes that I would love to take your pups on! Or just a little walk around the block if that’s what your pup prefers. For drop ins I follow any instructions clients leave for me, and do my best to make the pup feel cared for and loved!

About: Currently a golden retriever and cat mom, my love for animals began when I was a child. In my adult life, I have owned a Corgi, St. Bernard, and cats that I have cared for their entire lives. I am looking to help others in need of pet care, whether it is a daily walk or visit, or overnight boarding. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule to help with pet care. I can provide daily walks or outside time as needed. Dogs and cats are like family to me. Your pet will be treated as one of my own - with lots of love and attention!

“Sydney was great - very responsive and kind. She took care of my dog and my two cats. Looking forward to having her watch my animals again soon!”

“Emma was so sweet with my dog while I was away. He warmed up to her quickly (he can be shy) and got comfortable enough to sleep by her feet in bed. She kept me updated with how things were going periodically. I would definitely recommend Emma to others!”

Kristen G.

“Tracey was a dream to work with. She was so good with Wilson and took great care with him. With him being only 4 months old this was only the second time I have been away from him. I would recommend Tracy in a heartbeat.”

“Liddy was a great dog sitter. Was so easy to communicate with and was so sweet sending photos. Our pup had a great time!”

Jodi L.

“Drew was so amazing with our pup! He received lots of love and attention while we were gone. Our dog can also be reactive towards other animals on leash, and Drew did a fantastic job.”

Olivia C.

“William was great with Stanley - made sure he was in his normal routine, played with him, and overall kept him happy! I would highly recommend him!”

About: Everyone around me knows how much I love pets. I have helped dog sitting my boss’s dog, and as a first timer, I know I did great! I’m working a full time job, I’m ready for anything after working hours and weekends. For occasional home visits, I can make some exceptions depending on my schedule. I myself have a cat, and I haven’t been able to assess how she would react with other pets so I’m holding off on bringing other pets at my place for now. Otherwise, for the clients, I make sure I observe all safety measures and that I’m giving them all the love.

“Andrew was great with our 3 dogs. He took the time to meet the dogs and learn about their routines prior to him staying with that. He sent great photos and was very accommodating with our changing travel schedules. We returned to happy pups and a clean house! Will definitely be contacting Andrew again in the future!”

“Julia was awesome with Isaac and kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and messages. I felt very comfortable with her immediately and will absolutely reach out to her again with future bookings! I also want to note how accommodating she was - arriving at 5:30am so I could get to an important meeting. I so appreciate her punctuality and ability to take in Isaac’s care plan so quickly. Isaac is a shy rescue and it takes a special person for him to warm up so quickly. Thank you, Julia!”

About: I grew up with dogs (1 lab and 2 doodles), and I miss them so much while I am away at school. I have cared for neighbors’ and friends’ dogs since I was in middle school, offering both dog-walking and overnight pet care services. I also have experience caring for salt-water aquaria. I currently work a 9-5 with flexible hours. I am available for early morning, lunchtime, and evening walks. I am also free on the weekends. My apartment is unfortunately not pet friendly, but I do offer overnight pet sitting at the dog’s home. I have experience house sitting for families with pets, and I am more than happy to provide references.

“Maddie was a fantastic with our pup. She took her for lots of walks, gave her lots of love and was an excellent communicator. We will absolutely have her house sit again!”

About: I am a teacher for students with behavioral challenges and learning disabilities. I have a solid understanding of how behavior functions in both humans and animals. I am a kind, patient, and fun caregiver. I currently work weekdays from 8-4 with minimal obligations during the week. I am available on weekends or before and after work for pet care. I think getting to know an animal and building a level of trust is crucial to making a pet feel more comfortable with a stranger in their home! I will do what I can to follow your pet’s lead so that they can feel safe. I will also send pictures as much as possible!

About: Hello! My name is Wren and I'm a college student with a summer internship in DC. I have been fostering dogs and puppies since I was 5 years old. I also have multiple years of pet-sitting experience (both dogs and cats), and I had two dogs and a cat growing up that I was partially responsible for until I graduated from high school. I am an active individual and I love to go on walks and runs. Currently I am available during the day on Fridays and at night the rest of the week. I will have more availability in May because I will not have started my next internship so I will be free every day. In June I am available before and after my 9-5 job and a longer-term pet-sitting option would be my preference. I do not currently have a place to offer for boarding, but I can assure you that I will comply with all house and Rover rules, as well as respect your pet/space and keep it clean.

About: I spent my college years caring for friends and family's pets, as well as pets through Care. com. I am experienced in administering medication, am an avid animal lover and snuggler, and enjoy providing excellent care so that families can rest easy knowing their fur babies are loved while they're away. No toy goes unplayed with, and no ears go un-scratched when pets are in my care! I currently work Monday-Friday 7:30-4:30 with the YMCA, and after that I am available for overnight care, check ins, and providing pets with necessary walks. I am experienced in medication administration, and strive to provide a loving and positive level of care for your pets. My goal is to love on them as if I’m their best friend!

Whether it's a backyard romp, a neighborhood stroll to greet furry pals, or a woodland adventure, I'm here to cater to your pet's needs. With two contented cats of my own, I also have a soft spot for feline friends and can shower them with love and attention during my visits. Count on me to be dependable, trustworthy, and adored by your furry family members!

With a spacious, fully fenced yard, there's plenty of room for your pet to stretch their legs and play freely. My own dog is always up for a good wrestling match, so they'll be thrilled to have a new playmate join the fun!
