Personalized care for your dog or cat - Edgecomb
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Edgecomb
“My dog is still shaking an upset stomach so I had to make a "game time" decision about whether to board him for the second half of a mini vacation. He was greatly improving so I felt comfortable getting a Rover - if they accepted a dog getting over some illness, of course. Natalie was incredibly understanding, kind, and flexible; taking great care of my boy even when one of his symptoms came back. She followed my written instructions for the special care needed and she sent me some updates throughout. She was also very conscientious of other pets in her care to make sure they didn't get sick. This is our third time staying with Natalie and we really appreciate her warmth, caring nature, responsiveness, and flexibility. Thorin enjoys his overnights there with his new friends! Thank you Natalie!”
“My pup was well taken care of. She was happy and tired when we picked her up and she made some new friends, too! Very good communication and sent us many photos while we were gone.”
“Breanna was AMAZING!! She took my 3 large Golden’s and 2 Persian cats on short notice for a week in her home. She checked in, sent me pictures, gave my old boy his meds. It was the best boarding experience i ever had. Feel safe and confident leaving your babies with her.”
“Christina was absolutely fabulous. We usually take long trips once a year, which is difficult to plan without having someone trustworthy to leave our Lucky. He is a friendly and easy-going dog, but has experienced anxiety before, which usually affects his digestive system. But the care he received from Christina and the fun he had with other dog pals for almost three weeks was more than perfect. We are so grateful, and he'll definitely be back.”
“Lizzie and Brad are wonderful!! We didn’t have any worries leaving our new puppy with them. They are dog lovers and great people who take fabulous care of our furry friends. It gave me such a peace of mind leaving Ruby with them while I took care of my elderly mom. Huge thanks 🙏”
“Lindsay was so amazing with our St Bernard. This was the first time we ever left him with a sitter and she kept us in constant contact. She sent us daily updates and pictures and if we had any questions she replied immediately. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her service.”

“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.”
“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.”
“We were so thankful for Lucy taking care of our kitties while we were away for the weekend. It was such a good feeling knowing they were fed and happy. She’s a great communicator and I loved that she sent us pictures of our cats, too. Lucy also went above and beyond. She came over the day before to meet us, get the key, and learn where everything was. She also cleaned up from one of our cat’s throwing up and unloaded our MyOllie’s fresh dog food order into the fridge for us. Will definitely utilize her services again ? thank you, Lucy!”
“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!”
“Latisha has been perfection! She is so great with my dog, dependable and very responsive. Communication has been a breeze. Latisha sends updates and photos so I know everything is going well.

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I have worked with all kinds of sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I currently volunteer with the ARLGP, and love the skills I learn every day from the dogs and other animals there. Whether your dog is the easiest to walk, or needs some special attention (and strength!), I am here to help! Your pets may come back with better manners than when they left :) I am a business owner, and am often home at my property in Topsham enjoying the sunshine or local trails with them. Despite my own travel, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible! We have a small portion of our yard that has a light fence, we usually just walk the dogs or take them to the nearby dog park. Our little guy is an ex-escape artist, so we are always double checking, paying attention, and increasing security on walks / outings! Safety is a huge priority!

And most importantly I will give your pet lots of love while you are away!
“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.”

If needed, I can easily keep them on a separate floor to make sure visiting pets feel comfortable and have their own space.

About: Hello my name is Brooke! I am a recent high school graduate at I will be attending college at Smcc studying early childhood, I will be commuting to and from daily ( this makes me have a pretty flexible schedule to help! )I am free most days of the week and have 2 German Shepard dogs of my own ! I also have grown up around dogs the last 18 years of my life. Something that sets me apart from the other sitters is that I have experience with senior dog care and being able to take it slow, or if you have the complete opposite dog im able to meet their energy needs as well. I have handled big dogs that are reactive, have sensitive triggers, and small dogs of the same, im able to meet their needs! I do not at this time do overnight stays, im okay with coming to hangout and play, take them outside, or feed the dogs or cats but I will not be staying in the home.

For dog owners, I am very confident in walking big and small dogs, those who may have reactivity or need extra leash awareness making them enjoyable for the animal. For cat owners, I will be able to stop in for a time limit we discus and meet the needs of the cat for the day, I make sure each cat feels safe while you are away.
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: Hi, I'm a Wildlife Conservation, Animal Behavior and Biology undergrad that LOVES being outside! I have grown up alongside animals my entire life, and I know how to recognize behavioral signs before the reactions occur. I have experience with all ages and breeds of dogs, cats, barnyard friends, and exotic reptiles/birds/mammals etc... I am very seasoned in the patience department, and I love making fun puzzles with treats or toys. I frequently go on long walks/runs with energetic animals, and I've got a mean overhand throw that is guaranteed to tire them out! With senior animals, I like to read out loud to them and sunbathe out in the yard (if they are outdoor pets). I am also able to take pups out on field trips to the beach and hikes :) I live by the fact that all animals deserve the upmost respect, love, and support. I have dedicated my life to conserve the animals that populate the Earth and the habitat they depend on. I look forward to the next adventure with you and your pet! I am incredibly flexible with my travel radius and scheduling, reach out with any questions! I am available every day of the week unless the space is booked. I simply ask for open communication and kindness when scheduling/canceling. I will be here until Feb 5th, then I am leaving for study abroad in Australia until June 29th. I will follow any directions given by the pet/homeowner. I treat any space I'm in with the utmost respect-it's your home and your safe space. I can provide a variety of services, don't hesitate to reach out and we can coordinate based on your needs!
About: We each have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats for family and friends. We truly love animals and enjoy giving them dependable, loving care while your away! We both have flexible schedules, so pet care fits easily into our daily routine. We’re home most of the day, which allows us to give pets regular walks, playtime, and attention. We’re able to follow each pet’s normal routine and keep things as consistent as possible. We take safety very seriously. We follow all instructions, keep a secure environment, and make sure pets are always supervised, especially on walks or outdoors. We respect our clients’ homes and routines, and we keep owners updated so they can trust their pet is in good hands.
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 would be open to overnights possibly depending on the length of time. I be would prefer to care for your pet in your home. I have a cat and it’s better for me to come to your home.
About: I've had dogs, usually one at a time, my entire life. My current dog, Rupert, was adopted from a shelter. Rupert has enriched my life so very much. I know that my wife, the spare parent, is just a bit jealous of how much Rupert and I love each other. I'm working at a job with flexible hours. I would be available for pet care during times when I'm not working my other job. It would be great to be able to coordinate pet care jobs near my human care job. I make sure my dog goes outside for walks, and to go to the bathroom, several times a day. I also like to take Rupert on longer walks on nearby trails at preserves. I make sure he is well fed and watered. Lots of cuddle time. For Lucy, the cat, I am the one that feeds her and takes care of the litter box. Lucy cuddles with the wife more than with me, but still plenty of cuddles and play time together.
About: I’m more than just a sitter — I’m someone who’s dedicated my life to understanding and caring for animals. I’ve grown up with dogs, and my passion for their well-being has only deepened over the years. I’ve worked hands-on in both doggy daycares and animal care facilities, where I gained experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments — as well as other animals. I’ve also personally trained my own dog to become a service dog, which has given me deep insight into canine behavior, patience, and positive reinforcement techniques. I’m currently pursuing certification as a professional dog trainer and working toward a bachelor’s degree in Animal Behavior — so I bring both real-world experience and science-backed knowledge to every walk and visit. Whether it’s puppies needing structure, seniors needing gentle care, or high-energy dogs that need a good workout, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique needs. Above all, I treat every animal as if they were my own — with love, respect, and consistency. Right now, I have open availability and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet’s care. I'm currently in between jobs, so I’m flexible and able to accommodate last-minute bookings, daily walks, and extended stays. Even when I’m busy, I always make time for my own dog — caring for animals is just a natural part of my routine. Once I’m working part-time, pet care will still be a priority in my schedule. Whether it’s walks, check-ins, or overnight stays, I’ll continue to provide consistent, loving care with reliability you can count on. In My Home: I offer a safe, spacious, and fun environment for your pup! I have a large home with a secure, designated dog run for added safety. Your dog will also have a built-in playmate — my own well-trained and friendly dog, who’s great at matching energy levels and knows when to give other dogs space. It’s a great setup for high-energy dogs who love to play, but also calm enough for dogs who just want to relax. In Your Home: When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I’ll follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions exactly as you leave them, and I always treat your space with respect. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or quiet companionship, I adjust to your pet’s needs to help them feel comfortable and cared for.
About: I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine care to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them like my own—with kindness, consistency, and plenty of playtime. I'm great with routines, quick to notice changes in behavior or mood, and always send updates to keep you in the loop. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe and loved. As a teacher on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m reliable, organized, and plan my days around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it's daily drop-ins, feeding schedules, or just making time for extra play and snuggles, I build pet care into my routine with the same consistency and attention I bring to the classroom. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, playtime, medications, litter box cleanup, and more—and I always respect the home like it’s my own. I take time to bond with each pet, offering plenty of love, attention, and calm companionship. I also send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and your home is in good hands.
About: I have been around animals my entire life. I have worked with all kinds of sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I currently volunteer with the ARLGP, and love the skills I learn every day from the dogs and other animals there. Whether your dog is the easiest to walk, or needs some special attention (and strength!), I am here to help! Your pets may come back with better manners than when they left :) I am a business owner, and am often home at my property in Topsham enjoying the sunshine or local trails with them. Despite my own travel, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible! We have a small portion of our yard that has a light fence, we usually just walk the dogs or take them to the nearby dog park. Our little guy is an ex-escape artist, so we are always double checking, paying attention, and increasing security on walks / outings! Safety is a huge priority!
About: I have had dogs my entire life, and am keen to understanding their needs, behaviors and views. Personally, I enjoy building relationships with my own dogs based on trust, training and adventure. I understand that all dogs have different upbringings and different needs. They and their owners may have different expectations, which I always try to accommodate. I have experience house and pet sitting for multiple high-energy dogs. I am a very active person with a flexible schedule. Keeping pets exercised and mentally stimulated is always enjoyable. I have an SUV which can fit multiple dogs. I am able to visit homes multiple times a day, and I am also available to house sit for extended periods of time. Thank you for visiting my profile I’m currently working part time, and have a flexible schedule. I’m available most days with little advanced notice. Available tmes of day vary by day. I have a fenced in yard and child/ pet proof house. I pay close attention to the demeanor and behavior of the pet to provide adequate supervision.

“My dog is still shaking an upset stomach so I had to make a "game time" decision about whether to board him for the second half of a mini vacation. He was greatly improving so I felt comfortable getting a Rover - if they accepted a dog getting over some illness, of course. Natalie was incredibly understanding, kind, and flexible; taking great care of my boy even when one of his symptoms came back. She followed my written instructions for the special care needed and she sent me some updates throughout. She was also very conscientious of other pets in her care to make sure they didn't get sick. This is our third time staying with Natalie and we really appreciate her warmth, caring nature, responsiveness, and flexibility. Thorin enjoys his overnights there with his new friends! Thank you Natalie!”
“My pup was well taken care of. She was happy and tired when we picked her up and she made some new friends, too! Very good communication and sent us many photos while we were gone.”
“Breanna was AMAZING!! She took my 3 large Golden’s and 2 Persian cats on short notice for a week in her home. She checked in, sent me pictures, gave my old boy his meds. It was the best boarding experience i ever had. Feel safe and confident leaving your babies with her.”
“Christina was absolutely fabulous. We usually take long trips once a year, which is difficult to plan without having someone trustworthy to leave our Lucky. He is a friendly and easy-going dog, but has experienced anxiety before, which usually affects his digestive system. But the care he received from Christina and the fun he had with other dog pals for almost three weeks was more than perfect. We are so grateful, and he'll definitely be back.”
“Lizzie and Brad are wonderful!! We didn’t have any worries leaving our new puppy with them. They are dog lovers and great people who take fabulous care of our furry friends. It gave me such a peace of mind leaving Ruby with them while I took care of my elderly mom. Huge thanks 🙏”
“Lindsay was so amazing with our St Bernard. This was the first time we ever left him with a sitter and she kept us in constant contact. She sent us daily updates and pictures and if we had any questions she replied immediately. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her service.”

My schedule is very flexible, in the event that I have to run some errands, I am happy to take your dog for a car ride with me.

Also, I could not be happier to have your dog hang out on the couch with me while I read or work from home.

“Lacey gave Tonks love and enrichment; I could sense that Tonks felt relaxed and cared for during their time together. We definitely would choose Lacey, and her family, for a future dog-date!”
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 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.
“Jaclyin is the best!!! I left my boys with her for 10 days and when I got home, I found healthy, happy puppies. She took great care of my two guys, kept communication open and updated me everyday about them. I recommend her 100%.”
