“Madelyn is always a communicative and through sitter. She truly goes above and beyond with our pets. We always have one less stress when we travel knowing the animals are in her care.”
About: I grew in a home full of dogs and cats. I have experience with dogs from young pups to older dogs as well. I truly want to help and support pets and people in anyway I can. I am a teacher so I am available on weekdays after 3pm and anytime on the weekends. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I cannot welcome your pet into my home in my current housing situation but I will provide any necessary care to your family including walks, drop in visits, and house sitting.
“Emma watched our kitties for a long vacation period and as always gave the most amazing updates, pictures, and most of all - comfort knowing they were the most looked after and taken care of when we were gone! Thank you Emma!”
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.
“Erin took super good care of our buddies as usual. I really appreciate her detailed notes about their care and always photos! We’re thankful she goes the extra mile to try and get them to eat their wet food. Cats are so easy, right ?? Sorry for my late review !!!”
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!
About: I’ve had pet dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. I’ve always loved taking care of them, and being someone that they can rely on. Caring for animals is a big part of my life and something I hope to be forever passionate about! I am working full-time for the summer. I am a college student who will be going back to part time in the fall to finish my last year. I’m mostly free in the evenings and on odd days during the week since I work a rotating schedule. The fall will look different as I’ll be working part-time while also going to school! I’ve been handling large dogs since I was a young teenager, so I’m very comfortable with all types of breeds. I’d consider myself very gentle when it comes to animal care.
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: Having previously worked at a humane shelter and a doggy daycare, I understand that dogs require a lot of care, love, and patience! I'm pretty good at reading their body language and I love putting in the extra work to get shy or reactive dogs to trust me. I will do everything I can to make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for! My schedule is wide open to housesit, dog walk/enrichment, and check-ins whenever it's needed. Let me know what you and your pet need, and we can schedule something! I will do anything I can to make sure your pet is comfortable, entertained, and loved while you are away. You'll return to see the house just as you left it (with absolutely no judgment if it's cleaned or cluttered) and a happy 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.
About: I have dog sat for 2 families, cat sat for two families, reptile sat, and generally animal sat for a few families. Animals are my happy place. I strive for the animals I take care of to be entertained, fed, walked, and most importantly loved. I am currently working part-time over the summer, while looking for an English teaching position (high school preferably). I have graduated college from the University of Maine at Farmington with a bachelors in Education. I find I am passionate about the things I strive to achieve and work for. I am organized, honest, and kind. I made sure the house I am caring for is clean and safe for the animals that live there. I will always follow the rules that the client will give me. I will try my absolute best to make sure the pets safety is my top priority.
About: Since I was 5 years old, I have been taking care of animals. My first job was as the neighborhood dog walker. Since then, I have walked and sat countless animals. You will be at ease leaving your pet with me. I currently live with two large boxers, so pet care is part of my daily routine - from walks to feeding and play dates. I am available regularly for walks and pet sitting. Each animal has a unique set of wants and needs / my 9 year old boxer has lymphoma and needs more frequent pee and water breaks. I am equipped with handling the specifics of each and every pet, and will ensure that your animal is taken care of.
About: I’ve been around animal my whole life, including larger/more difficult to handle dogs. My amazing labrador Lincoln is around 105 lbs and VERY energetic (we call him a wolf), which has greatly helped my experience with larger dogs. I’ve also gone through puppy training and sitting, so I can handle dogs of all different temperaments! I cannot wait to meet your furry best friend!! I’m currently a student at the University of North Florida, seeking a part time job of dog walking. This is along with my other job as a bartender. I don’t offer pet sitting as I am currently living in the dorms at the University of North Florida for the Fall Semester full time.
About: Hi there! I’m the proud dog mom of a lovable 9-year-old Goldendoodle named Moose. From a young age, I’ve been passionate about caring for others—whether that be animals, children, or seniors. With over 10 years of hands-on experience in animal care, child care, and senior care, I bring a well-rounded and compassionate approach to every pet I look after. I have experience with animals of all ages (from 6 weeks to 15 years old) and a wide range of breeds, including: Great Danes, Pit Bulls, Chihuahuas, Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, Huskies, Golden Retrievers, French Bulldogs, German Shepherds, Cairn Terriers, and Bullmastiffs. Beyond my professional background and deep love for animals, I’m an active individual who enjoys spending time outdoors and staying fit. I walk a minimum of 3 miles every day and love having a four-legged companion along for the journey. That means your pet won’t just receive basic care—they’ll also get the attention, activity, and affection they deserve. If you have any questions or want to learn more about how I can care for your furry family member, feel free to reach out. I’d love the chance to connect with you and your pet! Pet care fits seamlessly into my lifestyle and daily routine. I currently work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to structure my day around pet care needs, including walks, check-ins, and quality time with your pet. This flexibility allows me to be available during various times throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. The way I care for pets—whether in my home or the client’s—always begins with understanding the unique needs of each animal. I believe that every pet is different, so I prioritize open communication with owners to learn as much as possible about their pet’s routine, personality, preferences, and any special requirements. By gathering this information upfront, I can create a tailored care plan that ensures your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-loved in my care. This personalized approach helps minimize stress and builds trust between me, the pet, and the owner—leading to a smooth and positive experience for everyone involved.
