“Natalie took great care of Fletcher! We were nervous to leave him for longer than we had before, but Natalie sent plenty of updates and pictures, and fletcher came home happy and tired ?”
“Hershey had a wonderful time visiting Christina P.! She kept in touch with us each day, letting us know how Hershey was doing which eased any worries I might have had and she sent us some great pictures of him!”
“Breanna was fantastic! Our 10 month old puppy had a blast with her! She sent pictures and provided updates throughout his stay! Will definitely keep her in mind next time we are out of town!”
“Finding someone that you can trust that will care for and love your fur baby as you do can be challenging. We were able to find someone and more in Robin. From the moment we started taking to the meet and greet to leaving Remy with her for a few days was fantastic. Her communication was excellent and fast right from the beginning. We weren't gone long before she was already sending pictures which is something we said we would take any time.. throughout our few days away we received many updates and pictures and from the pictures we could see that Remy was very happy and being cared and loved just as we do. Robin's compassion to take care of and spend time with animals is very clear. Remy even seemed a little sad after we picked him up and brought him home like he missed her and her fun dog Stella. We can't recommend Robin enough and we will definitely be using again!”
“Molly took our dog and guinea pig for ten days while we were out of town. It was the first time we have ever left our pets with a "stranger". Molly instantly put us at ease when we met her and our dog and hers quickly bonded. What's more is that our pup seemed to be looking for her playmates when she got home, almost sad to have left them behind! Thank you so much Molly for caring for our babies while we were gone - we will definitely be coming back to you in the future. :)”
“Alyx was wonderful to work with and we are very happy we found her! She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on Lucy's stay with messages and pictures. We were nervous leaving Lucy with a new sitter but feel confident that she was well cared for and given lots of one-on-one attention in her time with Alyx. We definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and small animals for three years now. I also have experience with housesitting and babysitting. I work two 12 hour day shifts a week. I am currently working part time two 12 hour days. Dogs go out before I go to work and after. On my days off I am able to spend more time with them. I cannot offer pet sitting in my home at this time. I have three years of house/dog sitting experience as well as cats. I am able to stay at the clients place as needed for pet care.
“Marissa is always thoughtful and sweet with my boy, Blue. When we have to leave him, he knows he gets to have a sleepover with his pal Marissa, and it’s like a mini dog vaca for him too. We have such a better time knowing that he’s in great hands!”
“Sarah was amazing with Tank. We were worried as he shows some early signs of anxiety and guarding and had never been left anywhere overnight before, but he took well to Sarah and her family. She was stern in helping him learn how to behave and helped give us tips as well on how we can continue to train him! She was easy to talk to and gave great feedback daily on his wellbeing and growth. We will definitely be rebooking with Sarah again!”
About: I'm an experienced doggy foster, boarding more than 10 new-to-Maine rescues last year before adopting a sweet little pup of my own. As a new dog parent, I know how difficult it can be to find reliable, affordable, overnight care - plus a place my pup will actually enjoy! I routinely pet-sit for friends, and joined Rover to continue expanding my dog's social circle (she *loves* other dogs) while earning supplementary income. My pup, Marcy, is a 1-year old blackmouth cur. She's a regular at the dog park and very well socialized across a range of doggy personalities. I have a safe, calm house with a fenced-in yard. I also work remotely, meaning your dog would have lots of attention and a watchful eye. Although I'm primarily listing my offering as dog boarding at my home, Marcy and I are flexibile so long as there is reliable internet. So please reach out if you prefer boarding at your home instead. Note that Marcy is gentle not prey driven, though she's only been introduced to one cat. If you have kitties, let's do a meet-n-greet to ensure it's a good fit. Reach out with any questions! I work at home, with flexibility around meetings for walks, dog park trips, and potty/training breaks. I’m available to pet sit any day of the week. At my home: I have a 4 ft fenced-in yard for play time, which turns into an at-home dog park when Marcy has a visitor. Note that the fence isn't foolproof for an escape artist or high jumper. Dogs are allowed throughout the house and on couches, if they choose. Sleeping arrangements are flexible, especially knowing visiting pups can sometimes feel more comfortable sleeping in bed with a human. Marcy is crate-trained, and I have a large crate in case your pup needs a designated safe space.
“We left our 15 lb Yorkie in the care of Elizabeth for three nights and were very pleased with the care she provided. He has special dietary requirements as he has colitis and Elizabeth fed him exactly as needed and he came home healthy and happy as could be. She sent us pictures of him every day out walking and in the house and he looked like he was having a ball. Either way I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or use her again to look out for our dog while we are out of town.”

I’m available on Fridays and throughout the weekend, giving me plenty of time to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I enjoy being active and spending time with dogs, so I’m committed to making sure every pet receives reliable, loving care while their owner is away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special care they require.

“Natalie was lovely! She kept my high energy cattle dog happy, busy, and healthy (which is quite an accomplishment for my pup). She was awesome with sending pictures and updates. I would have her watch my dingo again in a heartbeat. 100% recommend.”
“We were in need of a replacement sitter for our dog Joey after her lifelong caregiver of 7 years retired. Lauren came through for us in a big way. Her quiet home and gentle nature were perfect for our girl and gave us peace of mind that she was in good hands while we were away visiting family. We will definitely continue to use her services going forward!”
“Chelsea was a great sitter. Accommodated me at the last second so I could make my out-of-state trip. Took great care of my pup and provided check in’s and photos often. I would recommend her to anybody. 10/10”
“Wendy provided a loving home for our pup, Freddy, during extended travel for our family. Wendy's dog Elka was an instant friend to Freddy and knowing that he was safe, busy and receiving wonderful care took away a lot of anxiety. We look forward to Freddy staying with Wendy again in the future.”

“Christi was super friendly and helpful. I have seven cats, which can be tricky to manage when feeding, but she took great care of them. Christi was awesome and will definitely reach out again if we need a pet sitter.”
“Cori was accommodating, kind, and very thorough. Our in person meeting calmed my nerves about leaving Seed alone. This was our first experience with Rover and I felt so comfortable with her in my home with my cat. I absolutely would recommend Cori to anyone looking for a pet sitter. Her pictures and notes made my day for the two days I have been gone and we can’t thank her enough for the work she did.”
“Kadie was absolutely incredible watching our two kitties while we were away for a week. She did everything perfectly, was communicative and kept us updated the whole time, and was just so kind, polite, and easy to work with. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We felt so much better being away knowing our boys were in such good hands. We’re really grateful to have someone like her in the area and would highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you Kadie!!!”
“Hannah was the BEST! She really is an animal lover. Our cats took to her upon meeting her for the first time because she gave them each individual attention and pets to introduce herself. She was responsive, sent pics, and I did not worry. We came back to an immaculate house, and 3 happy cats. Thank you Hannah!”
“Rebecca was punctual and kind. Our dogs told us that she walked them around and they were happy to have her visit. Rebecca sent us pics and updates and we really appreciated her visits.”
“Brooke was terrific! She sent us plenty of photos, kept us up-to-date on our diabetic cat and was very comfortable calling or texting with questions (since we hadn't provided all of the answers). She was on time and extremely caring. We'll definitely be hiring her again.”
“Craig and chelsea are our favorite cat sitters! They are so thorough and truly care for our cats. It was nice knowing they’d be there for them for the first half of our holiday trip.”
“Breanna was incredibly detail oriented and excellent at communicating. Looking for someone to watch my cat with a chronic condition (CKD) who struggles to eat and requires multiple medications was very stressful for me. Breanna took down notes and asked follow up questions for my kitty’s care. I felt so relieved to leave my kitty with someone I knew could provide thoughtful care. She eased all my anxiety around leaving my medically complex cat with great updates and photos. I absolutely will book with Breanna again! She has given me a new confidence when planning adventures that require me to be away from my kitty.”
“This was our second time having Abigail care for our dogs. We left town for Thanksgiving, and she stepped right in like a familiar friend to both of our pups. Our Norwegian Elkhound warmed up to her immediately, and she handled his vocal personality with total ease. Our Chocolate Lab, who still struggles with some anxiety, was noticeably more relaxed this time thanks to the trust she’s built with him. Abigail kept us updated throughout her visits, and it gave us so much peace of mind while spending time with family. It’s clear she remembers their personalities, routines, and quirks, and she genuinely cares about their comfort. We’re so grateful to have someone we can depend on, and we would absolutely recommend Abigail to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”
About: I have always had dogs and love walking and playing with them. I always share a special bond with dogs, they are so friendly and comforting. My mom used to have her own doggy day care business and train dogs. I would love to meet new friendly faces and get to know your dogs. I believe that once I get to know your little pup, we will have a lovely time together. I have mostly had collies and shelties and currently I also have a pitbull/boxer mix. If your dog need meds, I have given plenty to other dogs in the past. I am very good at keeping dogs occupied and busy while having a good time too. I believe that if you give me a chance, your dog and I will have great times together going for walks and playing. I’m a teacher so this summer of ‘22 I am looking to have this as my full time job! I think that would be so much fun and the perfect fit for me and my schedule as I am very flexible! I love having toys around that my dogs love to use. I usually put my dogs closed in separate rooms during the day when we are gone. I would make sure all the dogs/pets would be as open or as separated as you’d like. Every dog is unique in their needs.
“Olivia is fantastic! Had a fabulous meet and great with me and my animals the week beforehand. She was punctual, sent great updates, and always very caring. My dog still has some puppy energy and Olivia was patient and kind. I would highly recommend Olivia to anyone who loves their pet and wants to make sure their pet still gets some love while they're away from home.”

“This was our first time using Lindsay for daycare services. She was very accommodating, and my pups appeared to enjoy their time there. Our dogs attend daycare regularly, and we were happy to find Lindsay and her services!”
“Our little beagle was safe and comfortable for his day with Natalie. We appreciated Natalie’s responsiveness, and her openness about how Charlie would fit with other dogs in her care. It was all good!”
“I found Tyler to be a very responsible dog owner who truly enjoys caring for dogs of all sizes. He is very compassionate, patient and understanding when it comes to ensuring your dog has a safe and fun filled day. Tyler and his dog Clarence treated my Great Dane puppy just like family. My puppy absolutely adores both of them tremendously!! I would highly recommend Tyler for your dog sitting needs. He goes above and beyond!”
“Robin is so great! I’m thankful to have found her and Stella (her pup)! My 3-month old puppy was able to be cared for while I was away. Robin was super communicative and easy going.”

I’m familiar with administering medications and meeting the unique needs of different animals.

“Molly is so sweet and kind it made leaving our baby a little easier. She was so understanding with our timeline changes and open to do whatever we need. She sent pictures and let me ask a million questions and it was peace of mind. I would 10/10 recommend Molly!!”
About: I have experience with puppies, training, dogs with anxiety, geriatric dogs and more. I also have experience with complex health needs and care in dogs. I work from home as a travel agent. I realized one of the biggest concerns for travelers was their dogs and the thought of having to use kennel services. Since I have the ability to be with the dogs all day it made sense to offer my home and a family setting. Our dog Sweety sleeps with us at night and so do our guest dogs. Unless that isn’t happening at home. The dogs we care for are like family during their visit. We live in a very private setting. While we don’t have fencing, we do have a large private yard on a private dirt road. We live on 5 acres.
“Melanie, her doggies, and her family are the best! Loretta can be a little shy at first - but quickly became a part of the crew and had had fun everyday playing with her new friends. Melanie and her whole family made Loretta feel right at home. We felt good leaving her knowing that she would be spending all day running around outside and playing with buddies, or finding a cozy spot to sleep in the sun on their beautiful deck. We highly recommend Melanie and will totally reach out again the next time we find ourselves in the area.”
“Marissa watched our dogs when we went skiing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them with her! They had a great time at her house and she sent us pictures of their day. She was incredibly nice and we will definitely reach out again!!”
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 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.
“As usual- Liseli was wonderful!! We received wonderful pictures and reports. It was great being able to enjoy a day with family and know that Elvis was getting some special loving of his own!”
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.
“Thank you for taking care of Ramsay! Jaclyn took great care of Ramsay and was so communicative with us about how he was doing. She took beautiful photos of him too! Clearly loves animals. Anytime we are in the area we will book with you!”
“Chelsea has been watching my brand new pup for a couple of days while I am at work and when I come to pick him up he wants to stay and play! She has kept me updated throughout the day which I so appreciate!”
About: I have had dogs and cats most of my adult life. I truly love the bond between a pet and caregiver. I’m a true believer that pets are family and should be treated as such. I’m physically active and enjoy the outdoors. Experienced in basic care and needs of dogs and cats I work part time, and I am very flexible with my schedule.

I will care for each pet like they are my own and will do whatever the owner needs to feel comfortable leaving there pet with me! I am 35 years old, live in Lewiston, ME. In addition to walking and caring for pets for the past 2 years, I have owned two different dogs over the past 15 years which further stamped my interest in developing a career involving animals! I work across the street from my home and can routinely go back and forth to make sure there is consistent care for all pets My home has access to side streets that allow for consistent walks. We are also located near parks which I take my own dog to on a daily basis
“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!”

I recently graduated high school and will be attending college locally at SMCC, where I will be studying Early Childhood Education. Since I will be commuting, I have availability throughout the week for drop-in visits and walks. Outside of school, I spend most of my time caring for my two German Shepherds, spending time with my two sisters, and enjoying walks by the water. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I love being active and spending time outdoors. I do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s schedule and will always communicate clearly about my availability. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and trusted environment for every pet in my care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them out for a walk, I take the time to learn their routine, understand their needs, and build trust at their own pace.

I focus on keeping walks safe, enjoyable, and tailored to each dog’s comfort level and personality while maintaining close attention to their surroundings.

“Kourtney did an excellent job walking and feeding our two dogs. She also sent us great pictures and videos which were a blast to watch. Great communication and responsiveness. Highly recommend!”

“From the original meet and greet to the care of my dog over the last couple days, Craig and Chelsea have been phenomenal. Very organized and genuine in wanting to provide the best care possible for you pet. Highly recommend!”
About: I grew up with two unruly labs (loves, but not the best behaved) and love all dogs and cats. In middle school I ran a successful pet sitting business in my neighborhood. I love to spend extra time hanging out with pets because I know it’s hard for them to be away from family. I am a recent college graduate working on my graduate school applications so I have ample time to dedicate to your animal’s needs and wellbeing! I have great attention to detail and will follow your instructions to a T regarding your pets needs. It’s hard enough for a pet to be away from their parents, why add to that stress? I like to meet dogs before I sit for them to become a familiar face and smell. I will provide a sense of routine for your animal and operate on their usual schedule so that their routine is as uninterrupted as possible.
About: I have experience with animals from Great Danes to Fancy rats. I have training experience as well with things such as potty training, walking etiquette, and a few show tricks. I have college classes in the afternoons but my mornings and nights are wide open on weekdays. As for weekends its just dependent on the day so I'll need advanced notice. I have a small yard, and within a quarter mile from the nearest park. I can give potty breaks ever hour if need be, and I'm great at matching an animals energy level.
About: I'm a 53yr old, active woman who spent 15 years as an Animal Control Officer in my local towns and then with my local Sheriff's office. I've fostered and adopted numerous rescues and am a huge animal advocate. Caring for other people's animals has always been my dream and now I'm doing it. I'm available almost any day at any time. I'm happy to stay with your pets or just stop in for a visit. I do not offer pet sitting in my home as my two rescues do not do well with other dogs. I will adhere to your wants and rules for your animals. I love my pets, and I will treat yours as if they are my own. But I will not do anything, give them anything, or let them do anything you do not approve of.
About: Iv been raising newborn kittens and fish my entire life. I grew up with big dogs too! Past co-workers would often say I have a funny personality and a calm demeanor. My attention to detail is my strongest skill. I have done volunteer work for camp sunshine, the animal refugees, and we run a youth group called Gaming for Christ. Im an artsy person; im in college for horticulture and I hope to work as an agricultural specialist. Veterinary assistant experience from York County Community College. I have five years of customer service experience. Looking for long-term work with friendly people who will make a list of specific details (if needed) for your pets. I take a great time making sure your pets are happy and comfortable! Completely open to any time or date that your furry friend needs me! Holidays and special occasions included! Im going to school online so I can always be available. I am very knowledgeable in Pet CPR. Fast reaction skills and attention to detail. Very capable on keeping environment clean and safe for any pet.
About: Professional Groomer, trainer, accepting pets in home for extended stay. Farm, fence, full play room, individualized care, puppies and aged dogs welcome! It’s a dog’s life 🐾 Full availability, 7 days a week - holidays included! Active home with quiet spaces and experienced care. Full care and integration into our daily routine if it works for your pet - we’re up early, and on the go - lots of socialization (or not, if that’s your pups jam!) play, enrichment time and experiences. This is my full-time commitment and passion. My background includes Grooming, Training, Seminar’s in dog behavior, pet CPR and first aid, and running a large boarding and grooming facility. I am Licensed by the State of Maine for boarding 🐾 I utilize a lot of tools to keep everyone happy, healthy, and safe - kennels, gates, double leashes, double fencing, cameras (indoor and out!) and a very specific routine that I have found works for this little home. Please be aware - dogs need to be kennel trained to board here. I DO use them at feed time, and for nap times as needed, to keep all the dogs in my care safe. I ask that you send your dogs meals pre-packed, or in a reasonable (for their stay) container. Please leave “favorites “ that cannot be replaced at home. This includes beds! I provide fresh, daily, clean toys and blankets, plus raised cot beds. Feed time is 2X per day, with 2X per day “stimulation” snacks prior to nap time. I provide all snacks, but need to know if your pup has a special diet. If your dog has separation anxiety, I really need to know. It doesn’t mean I won’t take your dog, but it DOES mean I have to structure things differently for that particular stay, and rates will be discussed. My own dog has SA, so I understand; I just need the information to plan accordingly.
“Meredith was comfy with Izzy right away, and she's a challenging girl. I worried I was asking too much to have her take her out walking (she pulls, want to eat all the things, barks at people and everything lol) but Meredith assured me with her calm demeanor and all went well! Will definitely be asking her back. Thank you, Meredith!”

“Natalie took great care of Fletcher! We were nervous to leave him for longer than we had before, but Natalie sent plenty of updates and pictures, and fletcher came home happy and tired ?”
“Hershey had a wonderful time visiting Christina P.! She kept in touch with us each day, letting us know how Hershey was doing which eased any worries I might have had and she sent us some great pictures of him!”
“Breanna was fantastic! Our 10 month old puppy had a blast with her! She sent pictures and provided updates throughout his stay! Will definitely keep her in mind next time we are out of town!”
“Molly took our dog and guinea pig for ten days while we were out of town. It was the first time we have ever left our pets with a "stranger". Molly instantly put us at ease when we met her and our dog and hers quickly bonded. What's more is that our pup seemed to be looking for her playmates when she got home, almost sad to have left them behind! Thank you so much Molly for caring for our babies while we were gone - we will definitely be coming back to you in the future. :)”
“Alyx was wonderful to work with and we are very happy we found her! She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on Lucy's stay with messages and pictures. We were nervous leaving Lucy with a new sitter but feel confident that she was well cared for and given lots of one-on-one attention in her time with Alyx. We definitely recommend her!”
“Marissa is always thoughtful and sweet with my boy, Blue. When we have to leave him, he knows he gets to have a sleepover with his pal Marissa, and it’s like a mini dog vaca for him too. We have such a better time knowing that he’s in great hands!”
“Sarah was amazing with Tank. We were worried as he shows some early signs of anxiety and guarding and had never been left anywhere overnight before, but he took well to Sarah and her family. She was stern in helping him learn how to behave and helped give us tips as well on how we can continue to train him! She was easy to talk to and gave great feedback daily on his wellbeing and growth. We will definitely be rebooking with Sarah again!”
About: I'm an experienced doggy foster, boarding more than 10 new-to-Maine rescues last year before adopting a sweet little pup of my own. As a new dog parent, I know how difficult it can be to find reliable, affordable, overnight care - plus a place my pup will actually enjoy! I routinely pet-sit for friends, and joined Rover to continue expanding my dog's social circle (she *loves* other dogs) while earning supplementary income. My pup, Marcy, is a 1-year old blackmouth cur. She's a regular at the dog park and very well socialized across a range of doggy personalities. I have a safe, calm house with a fenced-in yard. I also work remotely, meaning your dog would have lots of attention and a watchful eye. Although I'm primarily listing my offering as dog boarding at my home, Marcy and I are flexibile so long as there is reliable internet. So please reach out if you prefer boarding at your home instead. Note that Marcy is gentle not prey driven, though she's only been introduced to one cat. If you have kitties, let's do a meet-n-greet to ensure it's a good fit. Reach out with any questions! I work at home, with flexibility around meetings for walks, dog park trips, and potty/training breaks. I’m available to pet sit any day of the week. At my home: I have a 4 ft fenced-in yard for play time, which turns into an at-home dog park when Marcy has a visitor. Note that the fence isn't foolproof for an escape artist or high jumper. Dogs are allowed throughout the house and on couches, if they choose. Sleeping arrangements are flexible, especially knowing visiting pups can sometimes feel more comfortable sleeping in bed with a human. Marcy is crate-trained, and I have a large crate in case your pup needs a designated safe space.
“We left our 15 lb Yorkie in the care of Elizabeth for three nights and were very pleased with the care she provided. He has special dietary requirements as he has colitis and Elizabeth fed him exactly as needed and he came home healthy and happy as could be. She sent us pictures of him every day out walking and in the house and he looked like he was having a ball. Either way I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or use her again to look out for our dog while we are out of town.”

Whether your dog needs a fun walk, companionship while you’re away, or extra attention and care, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I have a beagle of my own, he’s 5 years old and he’s my absolute world! I’m patient, attentive, and committed to keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise routines, and any special requests. I know every dog has a unique personality, and I take the time to make sure they feel relaxed and loved. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! I work Monday thru Thursday as a dental assistant, so I am usually free all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! Pet care fits easily into my routine because I dedicate time specifically for it. I’m available on Fridays and throughout the weekend, giving me plenty of time to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I enjoy being active and spending time with dogs, so I’m committed to making sure every pet receives reliable, loving care while their owner is away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special care they require. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping their environment clean, safe, and comfortable. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I also can care for your pet in my own home where I do have my own dog who is a beagle and he’s very friendly and loves other pups, I also have three cats who love dogs!
“Natalie was lovely! She kept my high energy cattle dog happy, busy, and healthy (which is quite an accomplishment for my pup). She was awesome with sending pictures and updates. I would have her watch my dingo again in a heartbeat. 100% recommend.”
“We were in need of a replacement sitter for our dog Joey after her lifelong caregiver of 7 years retired. Lauren came through for us in a big way. Her quiet home and gentle nature were perfect for our girl and gave us peace of mind that she was in good hands while we were away visiting family. We will definitely continue to use her services going forward!”
“Chelsea was a great sitter. Accommodated me at the last second so I could make my out-of-state trip. Took great care of my pup and provided check in’s and photos often. I would recommend her to anybody. 10/10”
“Wendy provided a loving home for our pup, Freddy, during extended travel for our family. Wendy's dog Elka was an instant friend to Freddy and knowing that he was safe, busy and receiving wonderful care took away a lot of anxiety. We look forward to Freddy staying with Wendy again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Katie, a lifelong animal lover offering dog walks, drop-in visits, pet check-ins and house sitting for all kinds of animals. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, potty break, feeding, medication, or just some extra attention and companionship, I’m happy to help. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered!) family members! As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals in someone else’s care. I have a dog and two cats of my own, so I understand the importance of routine, patience, and lots of love. 🐾 I work full time, so I’m available in the afternoons, evenings, and some weekends. I’m active with my own pup, so your dog can happily join us for walks, playtime, or adventures on the trails! In my home, pets are treated like family. I ensure they’re safe, supervised, and comfortable, with plenty of love, play, and outdoor time. I respect routines and follow all care instructions closely.
“I was a bit uneasy at first to use a dog sitting app. 5 minutes on the phone with Matt and I was relieved. We met up a couple days before dropping Brandi off for her first time boarding and Brandi and Matt instantly hit it off and I couldn’t have been happier. Much better than taking a dog to a kennel and one very happy puppy.”
About: I'm a work at home pet mom with a large yard, lots of toys, and a calm and welcoming house. I've always had large dogs from mixed breeds to Great Danes, but love and appreciate all types of well mannered dogs. My house sits well off the road, so its quiet and I hike or trail walk almost daily. I am adept at giving medicine, cleaning wounds and dealing with incontinent dogs, but I will only board dogs who are respectful of my cats. I am currently working from home on my own schedule. Boarded dogs who enjoy car rides can come with me on errands or outings. While each day may different, my activities will be built around the needs of the animals I am caretaking, especially if separation anxiety is an issue. I will care for your animals as per your instructions and the capabilities of your pet. I do not have a fenced in yard, but have installed a run line in the past. If a dog is used to being crated, receiving treats, or sleeping on the couch - no problem. Conversely, I don't give animals people food, and if you want your pets to stay off furniture I will strictly honor that as well. My house is small but open, so it is easy to keep an eye on them.
About: I have a passion for dogs. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and health needs including medication, special diets, and have experience caring for injuries and elderly dogs. My partner and I both work full time with rotating schedules. Most days someone is home. On the few days where we are both working, the dogs are free to go in and out of the dog room to the fenced in area outside. I have a 2 year old lab/golden retriever who loves all other dogs, loves to play, and really enjoys having other dogs around. We have a dog room downstairs with an open door to a covered patio and fenced in grass area for the dogs to play, cool off, and use the bathroom at their own needs.
