Once again I was relieved and felt confident that my dog Walter was in good hands while I was away on vacation. Walter can be anxious with different people, but Amanda knows how to handle him. I definitely plan to use Amanda's services again in the future.

Sara is a bona fide Cat Whisperer. Our cat enjoyed the time she spent with Sara (we have the pictures to prove it!) and was loving and comfortable when we returned from our trip. My husband and I highly recommend Sara is you ever need a cat/house sitter.

Marissa was fantastic! I will definitely use her again! My girls fell in love with her, and one likes to test people to see if she can gain control and run the house. Marissa was firm in who was in control, but loving to jot hurt feelings. She provided regular updates and together we got through some tummy issues to make it where I got back home. The house kitties, who were not part of her duties other than to accept snuggles, adored her as well. At one point she was surrounded by 2 dogs and 2 kitties touching her at once! When we got back, as excited as my dogs were to see me, they also looked around me to see if Marissa was there. My animals tell me all I need to know about a person, abd they adore her. Your pets will too!

Nicole was absolutely amazing. She is personable, kind, responsible, reliable and patient. We honestly thought it impossible for our extremely anxiety ridden pup to get comfortable with anyone, but somehow Nicole worked her way into Lulu’s heart and was able to get past the fear. Would that we could have Nicole as a dog sitter forever!

About: Hi all! My name is Mariah and I live Raymond. I was raised with dogs and have one of my own, an Alaskan Malamute named Cosmo! I would love to take your pet on an evening stroll (anytime between 4:30p-9p) or come by and visit to feed/play/keep them company while you're away. If you need someone for a few evenings per week for walks, someone to feed your pup while you're temporarily away, or even on a more casual basis, please contact me as I would love to meet you and your best friend! -I also have experience giving meds and syringe feeding kittens. Mariah I work my full time job Monday through Friday from 8:30-4 but I’m available anytime on weekends and I’m also available weekday evenings. Wed, Fri, Sat, and Sun I’d prefer to stay in the Windham/Raymond/Casco area but Mon, Tues, Thurs I could also do Portland and Westbrook when I get out of work! If I was to come to your house I’m comfortable walking your dog in your neighborhood and I’m extra mindful of making sure your dog is safe and watched while in your yard if it’s not fenced!

Rachael was absolutely wonderful caring for our dogs! We have a senior dog with extra needs as well as a younger, very energetic dog, and Rachael provided dependable, loving care to both. We received updates and photos while we were away, and Rachael kept us well informed with how our pups were doing. She also was very responsible in our home, and left things in even better shape than before she arrived. We would highly recommend Rachael to others, and will certainly be reaching out to her again as future dog sitting needs arise.

About: I’ve had pets (ranging from dogs and cats all the way to bearded dragons and bunnies) for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up around animals and I’m now making it into my career! I’ve worked at a dog grooming salon for the past two summers, pet sit for the last 5 years, and am now shadowing at a veterinary office. I’m excited to gain more experience with animals as I look towards applying to veterinary school. I’m working part-time three days a week as a dog grooming assistant and shadowing at a veterinary office on Tuesdays. I’ll be available to pet sit for most of the week for the entirety of the summer, before I head back to college. I’m very vigilant with my own pets on always being leashed when outdoors, unless in a fenced in yard. I’m especially careful around open and closed doors, as I know how sneaky pets can be sometimes!

Julie is the best sitter I have ever had, and I have had many sitters. My dogs were calm and happy when I got home. They clearly got lots of attention. She responds to texts immediately and sends lots of great photos. My house is always spotless when I get home. I used her many times and she is always on point.

About: I’m Cody! I grew up with 3 dogs, and I worked at a dog daycare for over a year. I’ve done on and off pet-sitting and walking through craigslist and friends over the years as well. I have 2 cats and a rabbit at home, so I’m good with all different types of animals. I can do pet sitting, check ins, and walks. I have a car with a large backseat so I could also transport your pet to a park or a preferred walking trail if you’d like. I am available weekday mornings before 8am and afternoons after 4pm. My weekends are completely open! Thank you for considering me to hang out with your pets and I hope to hear from you soon! Cody

Wow is all that we can say! Amazing experience! Nishat truly went above and beyond for our 12 week old puppy and not only took great care of him but also took great care of our house while we were away for a week. Our puppy had to take different medications and had many needs that we were nervous about but Nishat put our minds to ease and met all his needs and I was amazed at her knowledge, care and treatment of our puppy and our place like they were her own. She sent us updates every day to let us know how he was doing and it was so clear to us that he was in good hands, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. She was so responsive and present and it was by far our best experience on Rover. I really can’t recommend Nishat enough for anyone looking for a sitter. We would not hesitate to hire her again. There’s no one else I would rather have watch my baby. She’s the best! Thank you so much Nishat we appreciate you!

About: Hi! I am a licensed veterinary technician whose passion has been pets and animals my whole life! Before I was an LVT, I worked at a well known doggy daycare and boarding facility while I was in college. Even before that, I would pet sit for friends and family. I have experience with dogs, cats (I’m a crazy cat lady at heart), pocket pets (guinea pigs, rats, hamsters), farm animals, and the occasional snake! I’ll love your fur babies like my own! I currently work in Portland Tuesday-Friday 7:30-6pm. I would love to take care of your pets outside these hours if that fits their lifestyle! I have reliable transportation to come to your home and take care of your pets! I will follow any specific directions you have for your pet, their safety and comfort is my priority. I am knowledgeable on animal behavior and will treat them as if they were my own pet to make sure they get the best treatment! At this time, I cannot take pets into my own home.
