Personalized care for your dog or cat - Auburn
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Auburn
“We have used many dog sitters in the long life of our old dog and this was one of the best we have ever had. I so appreciated how very thorough they were at the meet & greet obtaining all the pertinent info needed about my dog, with notepad in hand, above and beyond what I would have remembered to impart. So I knew right away she would be in very good hands. Top of the line in knowledge about dogs, home, neighborhood, fenced in yard and conscientiousness. Paisley had a great stay. We are always grateful to have a home away from home for our girl that leaves us worry free about her care. Terry & Sheree are very responsive, shared photos to us, they walked her and made her feel right at home. We highly recommend them for your pets but please leave room for us to go back. Thanks Terry & Sheree. Hope you don't get so busy you can't fit us. We will be back!”
“Chelsea did amazing with Ren. When I arrived, he was happy and didn’t want to leave. The environment was very pet friendly. Chelsea has such a warm, kind soul for pets. Definitely do recommend booking in the future!”
“Mariah, Kyle and family took good care of our 10 yr. old Portuguese Water Dog during our week long family vacation. They treated him like he was part of the family and he enjoyed being around their dog and another one they were also boarding. Having a fenced in yard was perfect for playing and getting exercise. They were easy to communicate with and wonderful about giving regular updates and sending photos.”
“A very clean and comfortable environment for my 2 boys to stay while we were away. Good communicator while we were away. Also took on my wild 9mo old golden, who was able to get some energy out in the spacious back yard!”
About: Hi! We’re Natalie and Tim, and we have both had dogs our entire lives. Natalie worked at a Humane Society in college, and Tim fostered dogs (and was a “failed foster” parent) for many years before we moved to Maine with our two doggies, Penny & Willa. We spend lots of time taking our dogs and dogs who we sit for to local nature trails in Cumberland or enjoying fetch with the Chuck-It in our large backyard. Our home is kid-free, and we will treat your pups like our own! Tim works from home, and Natalie is a full-time graduate student with a flexible schedule. Your dogs will be home with either or both of us for the majority, if not the entire time! We have a large yard (1.5 acres) on a quiet street in a very dog-friendly neighborhood. Although our yard is not physically fenced, we do have an electric fence that could work for your dog if they are trained on this at your home! We are happy to crate your dogs - we’re even happy to have them in our bedroom and on the couch if they prefer!
“Christina took care of our dog for 10 days while we went on vacation. This was our first time using her and she made sure our dog was happy and comfortable! She responds to messages in a timely manner, was very reliable, and sent several updates with wonderful pictures of our pup playing! Our dog came back happy and with a fresh bath! I will definitely book with her again and have already recommended her to my family and friends. Thank you for making our vacation relaxing as we didn’t have to worry about our beloved pup and knew she was in great hands!”
“Kymberly and Robert are excellent dog sitters. We felt absolutely confident and comfortable that our dog was in good hands from the moment we dropped her off with Kymberly and Robert. They posted regular updates and were attentive in every way. It’s clear that they have a love of dogs and shared that love with our pup. I highly recommend them for your dog needs!”
“Nicolette was professional, attentive and a great dog sitter taking them on sniffventures, walks, dog parks, ect. Our pet had such a great time making new friends he didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up. We'll definitely be doing business with Nicolette in the future! Thank you so much Nicolette for being exactly what we and Odin wanted/needed, you're the best:)”
“Stout enjoyed his visit with Simon. He was flexible about us changing our plans too. He was able to add extra dates which helped us enormously. Thank you!!”
“Craig was so great with our hyper, anxious dog! He sent regular updates and photos and was very flexible when our travel plans changed at the last minute. His own dog is so calm, and was so sweet with ours as well. I highly recommend Craig—your dog will be in very good hands with him!”
“We had such a wonderful experience! From the very beginning, they were kind, professional, communicative, and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such great hands. They kept me updated throughout the stay and treated my dog like their own. It was such a relief knowing my pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets. We will definitely be booking with them again! 🐾❤️”
“I’m so happy we found Sergey at the last minute. My two dogs stayed with Sergey’s for six nights. They came home tired, happy, and clean. Sergey was extremely flexible with our timing when our travel was delayed. I would not hesitate to recommend Sergey as a pet sitter.”
“My Maggie just stayed with Rebecca for a week, and had a great time. Rebecca takes such good care of her, and this time there were two other dogs for her to play with. Rebecca sent pictures and texts, and I could relax and enjoy a vacation that Maggie couldn’t come on. The only downside is I think she’s a little bored now that she’s home and away from the fun!”
“Marissa was amazing with Fenway! She kept me updated all weekend with thoughtful messages and great pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. Fenway was clearly happy, comfortable, and having the best time in her care. He came home relaxed and it was obvious he was well taken care of. I really appreciated how responsive and attentive she was. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“I have a very anxious dog and it’s been difficult to find a sitter who gets along with him but Marna has been a total lifesaver. She has been very professional, accommodating, and just delightful to work with, and I highly recommend her.”
“Kaitlin and her family were fantastic with the dogs! First, she accommodated a last minute booking when my original plan fell through and accepted with a weeks notice and I am forever grateful. It was clear the dogs were in good hands with multiple updates and pictures each day, I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing they were well taken care of. They even came home with handmade bandanas! I would definitely book with Kaitlyn again knowing my dogs also had a great vacation at her home. Thanks again!”
“Hannah was INCREDIBLE. So glad we found her to watch our special Floki. I am extremely picky about who I choose to have watch my dog, and I couldn’t be happier with Hannah. She sent so many updates and beautiful pictures/videos of our boy. I could tell he had such a blast with her and her dogs. They went on many trail walks, and she even sent me videos of him opening his Christmas gifts we wrapped for him. We will definitely be contacting Hannah next time we go on a trip without Floki.”
“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”
“Alicia and Dave were great with Cosmo. He was very comfortable there with them and their dog, and they were great at giving him his medications. Always tough to find someone to watch these dogs with some medical issues, but they didn’t miss a beat. Loved getting the picture updates.”
“Audrey was so good with our pup, Luna! She came back to us so happy and well cared for. She made a very last minute stressful change so much better! Thank you for opening your home to our girl!”

“Krista was a lifesaver for my dad! Right before going on vacation he had to start his cat on medication so he needed someone to check on him multiple times a day, and Krista came to the rescue! She tackled the difficult task of oral meds and kept us informed on how it was going the whole time with pictures. We really lucked out finding her and will definitely hire her next time!!”

About: Cats have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a teen, my family rescued a young cat named Bella off the streets when she was about 6 months old and she became the absolute love of my life. Years later, my family welcomed two kittens into the home while Bella was already a senior cat, so I've experienced the full range, from raising playful kittens to caring gently for an older, more settled cat. That mix taught me how differently cats communicate depending on their age and personality, and how important it is to respect their boundaries rather than force interaction. I'm experienced with the litter box and maintenance, as well as following specific feeding schedules and special diets. I'm patient, gentle, and attentive, whether a cat wants to play or just wants quiet company.
“Avery was great with my cats while i was away for two weeks. My cats are older and require specific medical needs which she took care of no problem. She was very communicative, and I would book her again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Auburn
“Chelsea was amazing. It was really easy to interact with her and she was warm and welcoming from the get go. Norbert took to her and her house from the instant we walked in.”
“We are so grateful we found Craig to dog sit for our puppy Enzo. Enzo is a highly energetic dog who takes some time to warm up to strangers, however, he took no time to adjust to Craig. Craig kept us updated through out the day with pictures and videos. We could tell right away that Enzo was having an awesome time. When we picked up Enzo he was tired (from all the fun he had with Penny) and overall just calm and happy. We highly recommend Craig for doggy care!”
About: We have always had pets in our home. Besides our own, we regularly watch our neighbors animals as well (dogs and cats). We recently had to say goodbye to our special needs dogs. So we have lots of experience and patience. Both my wife and I work from home so are very flexible with our schedule. This allows us to watch all ages of animals, allowing for frequent bio break and a flexible feeding schedule. We have a house full of love. With 2 adults and 2 teens/preteens your animal will get all the attention it deserves. We have a very accommodating house with a fenced in yard. Your animal is not limited in our house, we treat them like they are our own. We go on frequent outdoor activities. Hikes, walks, bike rides... Depending on your animals level of activity we would love for them to join us. We have experience with crate trained animals, as well as those that are more of the free range type. We recently had to say goodbye to our dog of 16years, and are looking to share our family with yours. We have a lot of experience with special needs dogs. So your companion will be in good hands.
“I’m very happy with Bear’s stay with Christina! He seemed very happy and well cared for when I picked him up, and her updates were very helpful. She took the most beautiful pictures of Bear for his check in! I already have plans to have Christina keep him again in the future.”

I am patient and committed to maintaining your pet’s routine while you are away. I offer dog boarding, drop-in visits, and doggy daycare. I live in a country setting with a very large backyard that provides plenty of space for exercise, playtime, and potty breaks. I also have a beautiful walking trail and a 40 acre field directly off my backyard for dogs that love to run! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your pet care needs or to schedule a meet and greet! Since pet care is my full-time focus, I’m able to stay consistent with feeding times, potty breaks, and any special instructions. My schedule is built around the pets in my care, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care and maintain each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and at home. I have three small, friendly Chihuahuas and a cat. They’re all well behaved and have always done well with other animals. If needed, I can easily keep them on a separate floor to make sure visiting pets feel comfortable and have their own space.

“Stanley came home exhausted and happy. He was lucky to have the chance to play with other kids and dogs. This was an excellent opportunity for him to learn how interact with grouped dogs. Nicolette took great care to monitor his activity level and provided him many opportunities to get outside and explore. Her space is almost as incredible as her presence. We look forward to booking with her again.”
About: What sets me apart is that caring for dogs is more than just something I do on the side—it’s my everyday life. I’m a Co Packleader at High Rovers Dog Daycare, where I work with dogs of all different ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I have years of experience in dog daycare and am trained in pet first aid, dog body language, and group management. I’m comfortable recognizing when a dog is having fun, becoming overwhelmed, needs a break, or needs a little redirection. I especially enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual and learning what makes them feel comfortable and happy. I also have experience with puppies, energetic dogs, shy or nervous dogs, dogs who need extra patience, and dogs who prefer a slower pace. Whether your dog wants to spend the day playing fetch, going for walks, practicing basic training, or simply relaxing beside me, I’m happy to meet them where they are. My goal is to give every pet the same level of patience, attention, and care that I would want for my own dogs. 🐾 Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! I work at High Rovers Dog Daycare, where I spend my workdays caring for dogs, supervising playgroups, and making sure each pup is safe, comfortable, and having a great day. Outside of daycare, I’m available for in-home pet sitting and care. I’m used to planning my schedule around the pets I’m caring for and making sure they receive the attention, potty breaks, meals, walks, playtime, and companionship they need. Because dogs are already such a big part of my daily routine, caring for pets doesn’t feel like a chore—it’s something I genuinely love doing. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their family is away. 🐾 Whether your pet is staying with me through daycare or I’m caring for them in your home, my goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. At High Rovers, I work with dogs in a supervised daycare environment where we focus on safe play, socialization, enrichment, and reading each dog’s individual body language. I’m trained in pet first aid, body language, and group management, and I have years of experience working with dogs with different personalities and play styles. For in-home pet sitting, I keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m happy to follow their usual feeding, potty, walking, playtime, medication, and bedtime routines, while giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I know every pet is different, so I take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable and what they’re used to at home. Whether I’m caring for your dog at High Rovers or in their own home, I want you to feel confident that they’re in caring, experienced hands while you’re away. 🐾
About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember, and I'd love the chance to care for your pets like they're my own. I'm a Maine native who recently moved back home after spending the last four years traveling and working as a professional dancer on a cruise ship. Now that I'm settled in Southern Maine, I'm excited to spend more time with animals! I'm an active, reliable, and patient person, so whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just having someone to keep them company, I'm happy to match their energy. I also understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I'll always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I'll send plenty of photo updates, communicate throughout each visit, and make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve while you're away. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, overnight care, or just someone to give your pet extra love, I'd be honored to help. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize walks, drop-in visits, and giving pets the attention they need throughout the day. I currently teach dance part-time and work remote during the day, but my schedule leaves plenty of time for pet care, and I love having animals as part of my everyday life. I’m an active person who enjoys getting outside, so walks, playtime, and keeping pets engaged are things I genuinely look forward to. I’m also someone who values consistency and routine, and I’ll make sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet with the same attention, patience, and love I would want for my own. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible—following feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I know pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and confident that your pet is being well taken care of. My goal is to make your time away stress-free, knowing your furry friend is receiving plenty of love, attention, and companionship.

About: I've had cats my whole life.. they make life better and it's a big responsibility as well. I have taken many older cats in from the shelter and foster fails and they had great lives with us. Would love to babysit your kitty or dog. I have 3 cats in my home and I've had many kittens and elderly cats. We have a catio and many toys to entertain your kitty. Catio, toys, food and love! I can give meds as needed as well, or special foods. I can also go to your home for visits.
“Already booked follow up walks! We had reached out to a few people to see about getting Brinkley a regular Saturday walker. One of my top choices messaged back and said she was out of town for a couple weeks but Riley was staying at her place and could pick up the ones until she is back. Riley came by and hung out with us and Brinkley for 20-minutes before the walk! He is a shy boy who takes some time to warm up and she was so great with him. It was crazy cold that day and Riley had zero hesitation -- and she was engaged every second... even longer than she needed to! We've had a couple of bad walker experiences as of late (either ignoring our one non-negotiable rule which almost ended in tragedy or taking him to the park and sitting with him for long periods of time, so he didn't get any exercise), so Riley was a breath of fresh air! Brinkley did very well with her and came back as a tuckered out, super cuddly pup. Couldn't ask for anything more! I've already confirmed Riley for walks for the rest of the time she's in town.”
About: I have over 10 years in Dog and Cat care experience and I’m excited to invite your dogs and cats to join me at the farm where there’s so much fun to be had! Please don’t hesitate to reach out! If your pets have a designated schedule then I will follow that but other than that they are free to play with each other and have a wonderful time at the farm. The 5 foot tall metal fence is Dog and Cat proof so your pets will not be able to run away. There is so much room in the fence so the animals never want to get out anyways. I offer safety features like cameras for the unlikely event of an emergency. There is also always somebody watching your animals so your pets would never be alone.

“We have used many dog sitters in the long life of our old dog and this was one of the best we have ever had. I so appreciated how very thorough they were at the meet & greet obtaining all the pertinent info needed about my dog, with notepad in hand, above and beyond what I would have remembered to impart. So I knew right away she would be in very good hands. Top of the line in knowledge about dogs, home, neighborhood, fenced in yard and conscientiousness. Paisley had a great stay. We are always grateful to have a home away from home for our girl that leaves us worry free about her care. Terry & Sheree are very responsive, shared photos to us, they walked her and made her feel right at home. We highly recommend them for your pets but please leave room for us to go back. Thanks Terry & Sheree. Hope you don't get so busy you can't fit us. We will be back!”
“Chelsea did amazing with Ren. When I arrived, he was happy and didn’t want to leave. The environment was very pet friendly. Chelsea has such a warm, kind soul for pets. Definitely do recommend booking in the future!”
“Mariah, Kyle and family took good care of our 10 yr. old Portuguese Water Dog during our week long family vacation. They treated him like he was part of the family and he enjoyed being around their dog and another one they were also boarding. Having a fenced in yard was perfect for playing and getting exercise. They were easy to communicate with and wonderful about giving regular updates and sending photos.”
“A very clean and comfortable environment for my 2 boys to stay while we were away. Good communicator while we were away. Also took on my wild 9mo old golden, who was able to get some energy out in the spacious back yard!”
About: Hi! We’re Natalie and Tim, and we have both had dogs our entire lives. Natalie worked at a Humane Society in college, and Tim fostered dogs (and was a “failed foster” parent) for many years before we moved to Maine with our two doggies, Penny & Willa. We spend lots of time taking our dogs and dogs who we sit for to local nature trails in Cumberland or enjoying fetch with the Chuck-It in our large backyard. Our home is kid-free, and we will treat your pups like our own! Tim works from home, and Natalie is a full-time graduate student with a flexible schedule. Your dogs will be home with either or both of us for the majority, if not the entire time! We have a large yard (1.5 acres) on a quiet street in a very dog-friendly neighborhood. Although our yard is not physically fenced, we do have an electric fence that could work for your dog if they are trained on this at your home! We are happy to crate your dogs - we’re even happy to have them in our bedroom and on the couch if they prefer!
“Christina took care of our dog for 10 days while we went on vacation. This was our first time using her and she made sure our dog was happy and comfortable! She responds to messages in a timely manner, was very reliable, and sent several updates with wonderful pictures of our pup playing! Our dog came back happy and with a fresh bath! I will definitely book with her again and have already recommended her to my family and friends. Thank you for making our vacation relaxing as we didn’t have to worry about our beloved pup and knew she was in great hands!”
“Nicolette was professional, attentive and a great dog sitter taking them on sniffventures, walks, dog parks, ect. Our pet had such a great time making new friends he didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up. We'll definitely be doing business with Nicolette in the future! Thank you so much Nicolette for being exactly what we and Odin wanted/needed, you're the best:)”
“Stout enjoyed his visit with Simon. He was flexible about us changing our plans too. He was able to add extra dates which helped us enormously. Thank you!!”
“Craig was so great with our hyper, anxious dog! He sent regular updates and photos and was very flexible when our travel plans changed at the last minute. His own dog is so calm, and was so sweet with ours as well. I highly recommend Craig—your dog will be in very good hands with him!”
“We had such a wonderful experience! From the very beginning, they were kind, professional, communicative, and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such great hands. They kept me updated throughout the stay and treated my dog like their own. It was such a relief knowing my pup was happy, safe, and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets. We will definitely be booking with them again! 🐾❤️”
“My Maggie just stayed with Rebecca for a week, and had a great time. Rebecca takes such good care of her, and this time there were two other dogs for her to play with. Rebecca sent pictures and texts, and I could relax and enjoy a vacation that Maggie couldn’t come on. The only downside is I think she’s a little bored now that she’s home and away from the fun!”
“Marissa was amazing with Fenway! She kept me updated all weekend with thoughtful messages and great pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. Fenway was clearly happy, comfortable, and having the best time in her care. He came home relaxed and it was obvious he was well taken care of. I really appreciated how responsive and attentive she was. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“I have a very anxious dog and it’s been difficult to find a sitter who gets along with him but Marna has been a total lifesaver. She has been very professional, accommodating, and just delightful to work with, and I highly recommend her.”
“Kaitlin and her family were fantastic with the dogs! First, she accommodated a last minute booking when my original plan fell through and accepted with a weeks notice and I am forever grateful. It was clear the dogs were in good hands with multiple updates and pictures each day, I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing they were well taken care of. They even came home with handmade bandanas! I would definitely book with Kaitlyn again knowing my dogs also had a great vacation at her home. Thanks again!”
“Hannah was INCREDIBLE. So glad we found her to watch our special Floki. I am extremely picky about who I choose to have watch my dog, and I couldn’t be happier with Hannah. She sent so many updates and beautiful pictures/videos of our boy. I could tell he had such a blast with her and her dogs. They went on many trail walks, and she even sent me videos of him opening his Christmas gifts we wrapped for him. We will definitely be contacting Hannah next time we go on a trip without Floki.”
“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”
“Alicia and Dave were great with Cosmo. He was very comfortable there with them and their dog, and they were great at giving him his medications. Always tough to find someone to watch these dogs with some medical issues, but they didn’t miss a beat. Loved getting the picture updates.”
“Audrey was so good with our pup, Luna! She came back to us so happy and well cared for. She made a very last minute stressful change so much better! Thank you for opening your home to our girl!”
“Christina was so great with our dog! Quick Responses leading up to the time she had our dog and She sent us many updates though out the time she had our dog. She made sure to keep her busy with many adventures while we were away. We are excited to have our pup stay with Christina again when we are away!”
“Stacy was awesome! We felt very comfortable leaving our Harry with her. She stayed connected with us through multiple pictures and comments throughout each day of his stay. Her photos reassured us that Harry was happy and safe. Stacy cared for him as if he were her own. We would definitely use Stacy’s services again and would highly recommend her. Thank you Stacy!”
