Cade went above and beyond what I had asked. They cleaned up after my cats when they made a mess and updated me after every visit on if my asthmatic cat had any incidents. Also both of my cats absolutely loved them. Even my rescue who is very terrified of new people entering the apartment. Will be requesting services again. Thank you!

I was so happy to find Jillian, as a sitter myself I have high standards and Jillian stepped up to the task. She followed all instructions left and sent detailed updates each day. Definitely felt at ease while I was on my trip, I came home to happy pups and a clean doggie room!! Highly recommend Jillian!!!

About: I am a big time dog lover! I work from home and am able to be here with the pets all day and take them out at least every 2 hours or as needed. I have a big house with a decent sized yard (NOT fenced). I'd love a few more companions hanging out with me and my dog, Lola! There aren't a lot of pet sitting options in this area so here I am making it an option :) Please come check me out! I work from home so i am here all day with the pets and able to tend to them as needed. i get an hour break for lunch and thats usually when i take my dog out to play/walk. I am available for day time pet sitting during the week. If needed me on a weekend we can most likely work something out-case by case basis-but it wasn't something i wanted to promote on my profile.

Another great visit by Aleisha! Sadie is getting to know her and it's paying off with a less stressed animal when we come home. We know that the next few weeks will bring them closer still and we can't wait for that to happen. Sadie likes her new pack mate!

Eliot does drop-in visits with our two wild hound dogs on their long home alone days and is literally the best!! Reliable, punctual, and professional. The dogs are always relaxed when we get home, and even our nervous coonhound feels comfortable enough with Eliot to eat her lunch when she’s there. We get cute photos and a summary of how the visit went each day. Eliot even caught one of our goats who had escaped and put him back in his pen safely. Highly recommend!

Jaclyn was on time and was definitely a animal l9ver! She referred to our Coop as Bear from Bear in The Big Blue House (a show I just introduced to my granddaughter) so I knew she was perfect to hang out with our pups! Our pups are A LOT - we have three and they each want ALL the attention! She sent pics and updates which we loved! Our cameras took a pic of Jacyln sitting on the couch, Molly tucked in close, while Jacyln was reading our laminated "book of guidance" for our crews care - it's about 5 pages 😀. The dogs were well cared for and happy when we arrived back home! Huge thanks to Jaclyn! Would recommend her to all who need loving trusted pet care!

About: I have always had a dog growing up. Currently have a two-year-old pup named Anna K. I also house sit for a friend our mine down the road every now and then. I can be very flexible making myself available. If you can, a couple days notice would be better. But if not, you can still ask! Have tried multiple training techniques with all the dogs we have had, electric fence, leash, a tie-out cable, and some we eventually let out on their own when they are ready. No small objects around, especially as a puppy, try not to feed them anything but their required food.

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

Monica was a great sitter for my yorkie-mix. She stayed overnight with Bella in both our home and hers. Bella was very happy when we returned from a 1 week vacation. We would definitely book with Monica again.

Ricky is so great. We needed some longer check-ins for our puppy, with pretty short notice, and he made it happen. It's obvious that he's great with dogs, and from his Rover reports and the pup's behavior when I got home from work, it was clear Ricky spent some good time and energy with him. We'd happily use Ricky again!

About: I know dogs need exercise, discipline, and affection. I know it can be challenging to find the right pet care that is trustworthy and reliable. I’ll do my best to give your pet the care they need! I am a massage therapist for part of the week and I homeschool my children when I’m not working. My schedule is somewhat flexible and I have extra time to fill here and there with pet care. I will feed, walk, or give your animals attention based on clients request and animals requirements. Whether it’s In the yard, taking them for a walk or just sitting petting them, I’ll give them what they need.
