“Christina was a great spot for Theodore. He ate better than he ever has at a boarder and the photos Christina took of Theodore while we were away were great. She dod great administering his meds for an ear infection he came down with just before we left. I highly recommend Christina.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Natalie took care of our older Italian Greyhound for a long weekend. She listened thoughtfully to all the intel on Poe we thought would be helpful for a great visit (including wardrobe info!). We felt at ease leaving him in her care. She picked up on his quirks very quickly and adjusted to his behavior/needs. She understands dogs. Highly recommend her!”
“Jennifer welcomed our dog Maggie into her home for several days while we were away. I felt comfortable with Jennifer from our first conversation; she has extensive experience as a Vet Tech, but is also friendly and kind. Maggie was treated like part of Jennifer’s family and was well cared for during her stay. I am so glad we found her and look forward to working with her again!”
“Marcie was available for dog sitting at last minute request (again!). She provided photos and videos of Gus during his stay and truly incorporates him into her family. She was able to accommodate an additional night due to flight changes and I am grateful for her flexibility!”
About: You can be sure that your sweet pup will get the time, love, care, and exercise that they need while they are in my care! I am currently stay at home with my four year old and own a cleaning company. I only clean a few hours a day Monday through Thursday so I’ll have plenty of time to play with a furry pal! I love to walk around our beautiful neighborhood several times a day to get plenty of steps in. We have a large yard in a safe neighborhood. The dog/dogs will be leashed and with me anytime we are outside. I have a large metal crate that the dog can stay in when it needs a rest!
“Matthew took great care of Lucy during the holidays! She came back home happy and with a new toy!! Thank you very much for caring so much about Lucy and taking great care of her, Matt. We really appreciate it!”
“Chelsea is an amazing trusted sitter for our Curtis. She’s great with communication and sending photos and updates. We ran into travel issues when coming home from vacation and she was very understanding and sweet about an unexpected extra day. This truly took my stress down a lot. I would highly recommend Chelsea!”
“What amazing sitters! Our dogs had such a great time. Charles and Christina were very attentive to our dogs needs and were great with communication. We got pictures regularly which made us feel so good that they were being well cared for. Will definitely use them again! Highly recommended!”
“Craig did a great job of babysitting our dog Heiwa for two weeks. We received an update with pictures almost every day we were gone, including pictures of Heiwa romping on the beach with Craig and his dog Penny. I highly recommend him if you need a dog sitter. We will definitely use him again next time we need a sitter!”
“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.”
“Kathleen took great care of our Ellie. She seemed really happy with all the snuggles and adventures they went on while she was under Kathleen’s care. Definitely recomment if you’re looking for a kind and reliable sitter.”
“Nikki was great! Loved our pups as her own and sent many photos to ease our minds while we were gone. Would definitely recommend her for boarding and will reach out to her next time we travel. ☺️”
About: I grew up on a large farm with show dogs! I have had dogs, cats and all farm animals my entire life and their happiness, care is always top of my priority! I work from home full time, so there will never be a period your fur baby will be left alone unless I need to run a quick errand. I have two dogs ( a shih tzu (7) and a mini schnauzer (6 months), we have two well behaved cats and 6 chickens that are enclosed in an outside area. We use a bell system on the doors for our dogs to tell us when they need to go outside and positive reinforcement at all times.
About: Since becoming fully remote for my full time job in 2020, I have taken on the roll of “trusted pet-sitter” for over 30 families and almost 50 furry friends. Back home in Maryland, I connected with these families just through word-of-mouth and referrals from happy families. Now that I live here in Maine, I would like to continue my expertise and passion for animals, and connect with some loveable furry friends. I am an attentive, detail-oriented pet-sitter, who also knows the importance of respecting another person’s living space and maintaining routines for pets. After years of taking care of every size, shape and age of dog, no request from the owner is too wacky. From complicated medication directions to particular night time routines, I know your pet is part of your family and deserves to go about life as usual, despite mom/dad not being home. Reach out, I would love to connect! I work full-time fully remote! So while I will need WiFi and a desk to type on my laptop while I watch your pet, there is always time for walks, snuggles and whatever else your pet needs. My goal when I pet sit is to keep the pet in its normal environment and routine as much as possible. I am always very clean and respectful of any house I pet sit in.
“We left our cat with Eliot while we were away. This was the first time we used Rover so I wasn’t sure how it would go. She was professional and didn’t seem to mind me checking in with her. She sent us a few pictures which was nice. Thanks Eliot!”

“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!”
“Eliot was amazing! She even came by before our trip to meet our kitty and talk about his routine. She left pictures and detailed descriptions of her drop ins that made us feel much better about leaving him home. Our kitty has a prescribed diet with a specific routine due to some medical issues and Eliot had no issues with that. We would absolutely recommended her to anyone who needs a pet sitter! She is trustworthy and thorough, a true animal lover!”
“Amanda was a great sitter for our two kitties! She provided regular updates, was flexible and accommodating, and went above and beyond to take care of them and our home while we were away. We'll be using her services again in the future for sure!”
About: Gosh I have had cats my whole life , I have worked with them every day in vet med . I also have fostered ferals. And worked with feral rescues fund raising and caring for them . I understand that not every kitty is going to be friendly and out going . I respect that . But will try my Best to be your kitties new best friend . :)
“Ricky did a great job with my two kitties. I had to be gone during some hot days and he made sure they felt comfortable at home! They were very relaxed once I came back.”
About: I’ve had animals in my house sense I was born and have had a role in taking care of them for as long as I can remember. I now have my own very spoiled creatures I’m working and going to school but I’m home a lot to I’m mostly looking for something to do in my spare time for a little extra cash Currently living with my parents while I finish school. My room is small but there is a big open yard for my pup to play in and my cats enjoy watching the wildlife from inside the house
“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 worked at a Veterinary Hospital for about 5 years, working to keep their experience as comfortable as possible, along with growing up with cats, dogs, and farm animals.I do work another job so for house/dog sitting I would be getting to the location usually between 6:30-7ish depending on location, so keep this in mind when considering booking me While I work full time my schedule is set so there will not be likely to have unexpected changes giving your animals a good structure to work with I can come to your location to let your dogs out/take them for a walk, as well as feed them and get in playtime while keeping them in a space they feel comfortable.
About: I’m a proud cat parent to three fabulous felines, so I know just how special (and particular!) our kitty companions can be. Whether your cat loves cuddles, playtime, or just a quiet presence nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. With years of experience caring for both my own cats and others, I’d love to be your go-to cat sitter!
About: So, picture this: the last 12 years of my life have been a wild and wonderful ride, all thanks to three pint-sized bundles of joy—Bella, Spike, and Roxie, my trio of Chihuahuas. These little furballs turned my world upside down in the best way possible. Bella, the OG of the group, has been with me the longest. She joined my life during elementary school, back when I was just a kid figuring out the world. Her big, soulful eyes seemed to hold all the secrets of the universe, and she quickly became my constant companion through those formative years. Bella was my ride-or-die, always there during childhood adventures, middle school uncertainties, and the whirlwind of life that followed. She had this regal grace about her, earning her the title of queen of the house. As I grew older, Spike entered the picture during middle school. If there was mischief to be made, Spike was your guy. From day one, he was the energizer bunny of the bunch. His little frame packed a whole lot of enthusiasm, and let me tell you, his antics could make a stone crack a smile. Sure, he had a rebellious streak, but his charm was undeniable. Spike was like the class clown you couldn’t help but love, always finding ways to keep life interesting. Then came Roxie, the baby of the trio, during my high school years. She brought a whole new level of excitement and curiosity to the family. In Roxie’s world, everything is an adventure, from chasing her tail to investigating every nook and cranny of the house. Her innocent eyes and boundless energy have always been a reminder to live life with gusto, even as I transitioned from high school to college and now post-graduation. Sadly, Bella passed away not long ago, after being by my side for so many years. Her memory and presence still linger in our lives in the most beautiful ways. Whether it’s her favorite spot on the couch or the little quirks Spike and Roxie have picked up from her, Bella’s spirit remains a guiding force. She was more than a pet; she was family, a wise and loving soul who taught me so much about patience, resilience, and unconditional love. Taking care of this Chihuahua squad has been a rollercoaster. Vet visits, grooming sessions, and the eternal quest for the perfect doggy treats have become regular fixtures in my life. But it’s not just about the responsibilities; it’s about the moments we’ve shared. The walks in the park that offered clarity during tough times, the lazy couch cuddles after long days, and the chaotic family photo attempts—they’ve all been part of this crazy, wonderful journey. Through it all, Bella, Spike, and Roxie have grown with me, marking different chapters of my life. They’re not just pets; they’re family. Bella may no longer be with us, but her love and legacy live on, reminding me every day of the joy she brought into my world. These past 12 years have been a beautiful, chaotic ride, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. Cheers to my Chihuahua crew—the real MVPs of my journey! **Please note, I require a week or two in advance if you’d like to book my services for longer bookings.** I am a graduate from the University of Connecticut, and life after college has been a whirlwind as I pursue a career in the airline industry while currently working in a hotel. Balancing work with the care of my two Chihuahuas—Roxie and Spike—has been made easier with the help of my family, who lend a hand whenever I need it. Mornings are a carefully orchestrated routine—feeding Roxie and Spike, fitting in some playtime, and preparing for a busy day. They’ve mastered the art of giving me those irresistible puppy-dog eyes for a little extra attention before I head out. While I’m busy with my hotel job or focusing on my future in aviation, Roxie and Spike hold down the fort, lounging in their favorite spots and keeping themselves entertained with their favorite toys. I often find myself sneaking a quick video call just to check on them and make sure they’re doing okay. Evenings are all about unwinding together. Walks become our shared reprieve, giving us a chance to stretch, recharge, and reconnect. Grooming and playtime sessions are not just for them—they’re my therapy as well, helping me unwind from the day’s stresses. Weekends are special. They’re filled with longer walks, extra playtime, and maybe a few more treats. Roxie and Spike know when it’s “full attention” time, and they soak it up completely. Balancing my career ambitions with caring for Roxie and Spike isn’t always easy, but it’s incredibly rewarding. With the support of my family, they bring joy, companionship, and a sense of home, keeping me grounded as I work toward my dreams. Alright, let me break it down. When it comes to looking after my furry friends, whether they're crashing at my pad or I'm on a mission to maintain their home vibe, it's all about creating a pet paradise. We kick off with chow time, making sure their meals are on point and water bowls are filled up. Then, it's playtime galore, from backyard boogies to indoor play-offs. Grooming is like spa day, brushing out the fluff and ensuring they're all clean and dapper. If there's any covert mission, it's the medication mambo, sneaking those pills into treats like a pet medicine ninja. Quality bonding time is a must, whether through deep conversations or cozy cuddles on the couch. Potty patrol is serious business for those with a refined taste in litter. Toss in some casual training sessions and make sure the home, whether mine or theirs, is a pet haven. House security? That's in the job description too. Snapping pics of the cuteness and sharing them with the pet parents is obligatory, and having a plan for the unexpected is the grand finale. So, whether we're having a pet party at my place or I'm a temporary houseguest in theirs, it's all about ensuring the fur crew is living their best lives. 🐾
“Amelia came through in a pinch, got on our dogs’ energy level and gave our nervous, reactive one a chance to warm up without pushing him. Excellent communication. During the meet and greet she asked good questions and had good instincts on what to do to help our dogs and cat get comfortable with her. It was clear they were in good hands with Amelia. Thank you!”
About: I've cared for and lived with cats for as long as my memory goes back. I have years of experience and love for cats of all kinds. I have rescued cats in my adult life, and have experience in caring for cats who are undersocialized or/and timid. When it comes to cat care I pay attention to their body language, their individual personalities and needs, and always respect their personal space. I have cared for wounds, administered medication, and worked hours a day for years to earn the trust of a cat absolutely terrified of people (he became the sweetest little cuddle bug!). I also have experience in caring for elderly cats as I had my childhood cats grow up with me! I have two rescue kittens currently who have just turned one, and they both like to join training sessions with my pup, and as a result both kittens know sit, stay, and up! They learned those skills through positive reinforcement training and a great puppy role model. I know how impotent a clean environment is for a cats health and make sure to clean litter boxes well. I will also gladly brush cats and trim nails, no one likes their furniture being scratched up or a nail getting stuck and ripped out (ouch!). I would love to meet you and your kitty and find out how I can best help meet their needs and support a happy healthy life!
“Suzanne was so good to our cats. Not only did she give one of them their meds, and feed them, but she also played with them and sent us pictures daily, and kept their litter boxes clean!”

“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!!”
“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.”
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.
“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!”
“Marcie was very helpful. We traveled from out of state and last minute needed someone to watch our dog so we could attend our son’s graduation. Marcie was very flexible. Our dog seemed happy (not stressed) when we picked him up. She was easy to work with!”
“As always, pictures were sent to me to show how much fun Clifford had. They're friendly, work with my goofy schedule and every time we pull onto their street Clifford's tail gets to wagging like crazy. Makes me feel so comfortable bringing Cliff to them”
“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 been walking and caring for pets for 2 years now, and it has been an awesome experience. I have been around pets my entire life and have always wanted a career that allowed me to meet and take care of different types of animals. I am reliable and honest which are important qualities when leaving your pet with someone. 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
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.
About: I have years of experience with a variety of special needs pets. I work from home so there is plenty of time for playtime, exercise and lots of snuggles. Your home or mine. Short stay or long.

It’s a popular area for walking, and a short stroll to nearby hiking trails.
About: I have over twenty years experience caring for dogs (my own and other people's). I prefer for new clients to contact me at least one week in advance of their first appointment so that we have time to work out a meet and greet, and to discuss all the details of care. Some dogs like the park, others love to swim, lie in the sun, or have special needs. I've worked with dogs of all ages from puppies to geriatric, as well as dogs with specific training needs. I trim claws for owners who prefer not to do it themselves, although there is an additional fee, and I reserve this service for repeat clients. I am willing to work with owners to give dogs the care they need and expect. I love to find out what makes each dog perk up their ears, roll over, groan with delight and wag a happy tail. For the time being I work from home full time, with the goal to move to self employment full time so I can give excellent care to your dogs 24/7. I would like to meet you and your dog before booking any services to be sure that everything goes smoothly when you are away. Your dog is in good hands with me! I'm currently working from home so I'll have plenty of time to snuggle with pups during the day and get them out to stretch their legs a couple times or more. I have an unfenced yard, so we take lots of leash walks, or have tether time for play. The woods and field visits are followed by tick checks.
About: I used work at a cat hospital and run my own dog grooming service. I also used to be a kennel attendant at Scyrz Kennel and Cattery. I am experienced with all animals, dog, cat, reptiles, small animals, birds, etc. I love them all, and I will give them the love and care they need. I attend school with the intent of becoming a graphic designer. Since I used to be a vet tech I know how to take care of pets and all their needs, even when they are sick or injured. I can walk them at the local park, and am flexible with any special care they need. I can provide any grooming services needed as well. I can bathe and shave them and clip their nails, and clean ears for an extra price. I will make sure your pets get the love and care they need, I will be attentive to their needs constantly. I can give pet care at anytime through out the day, I am a stay at home mom. I am very flexible with my schedule. If you have a specific schedule I will follow that schedule you and update you on your pet. I know how to keep an animal well taken care of and attentive of their needs. I used to be a vet tech and I am aware of any health issues and able to take care of them when injured or sick. I have 2 dogs that are very playful and will gladly play with them. If you need additional services such as grooming or walking etc. Please let me know and I will adjust the price accordingly.
About: I have taken care of dogs for to 20+ years in many different capacities including but not limited to daycare, grooming, training, veterinary kennel technician, in-home pet sitting. I have impeccable references upon request that will confirm my experience. Senior/puppy care available. All ages! I am retired and available upon demand. Dogs are my passion and my references will confirm this. I can come to you or your dog can come to me. Overnight stays will be in my pet-safe home. I have a safe fenced in pen for playtime. I live in the country with many walking paths available for the dogs to exercise and I have a large back yard. I live with my Blackmouth Cur rescue dog and he loves playing with 'fur-friends'. He is extremely submissive and plays well with all size dogs. I will closely monitor your pet while in my care as I am retired and stay with the dogs 24/7. Rest assured!
About: I'm a farmer's daughter and was raised by animals. My grandfather trained wild animals (the newspaper clipping) and fostered that passion in me. A relaxed, healthy individual perceives and interacts with the world differently than a stressed one. I was formerly an emergency room veterinary technician. As much as I love it, I'm no longer physically able to be a vet tech. Caring for them as a sitter brings me joy and satisfaction. I travel with a big Sitter Bag of Tricks. Puzzles, snuffles, licky mats, a potpourri of balls, frisbees and leashes for the pups. For kitties, I have a tube full of wands, nip, pompoms, laser lights, and I'm not afraid to offer puzzles and mats. Kitties like them, too. Everyone enjoys pet relax playlists. My goal is to take care of them physically, emotionally and psychologically. Además, hablo español por si les ofrece. I've done summits with Drs Julie Lee, Judy Morgan, Edward Baissingthwaite and others regarding wellness and holistic care. I'm committed to learning from experts the best ways to help them live their longest, best lives. I know intimately the bond between pets and family, pets as family, and your family will be loved and cared for when you can't be home yourself! I am a certified Fear Free Sitter and a member of PUPS (Professional United Pet Sitters.) I keep it basic: good nutrition, tons of fresh water, exercise, environmental and mental stimulation, good hygiene and husbandry, regular healthcare, physical and spiritual closeness. I work from home so I’m with them 24/7 as needed. When we're separated from our family, even confident, resilient pets can experience some stress. I try to balance that out for them between love and fun. Their care is determined on an individual basis. I care for a variety of species and each is their own person. Learning what they love and sometimes learning new things is half the fun!
About: My entire life has always revolved around animals. As a lifelong equestrian, I’ve grown up taking care of horses and dogs of all shapes and sizes. Previously a barn manager, I’m now a pet & equine photographer. That means when I’m not at a horse show or photoshoot, I’m at my desk at home with my own two senior dogs curled underneath. My years in the horse world and now with senior dogs has taught me how to apply topical medication, give injections and oral meds, and how to recognize and redirect problematic behavior. Living on 15 wooded acres set back from the road means there is plenty of space for pups to run around as well as numerous off leash walking trails should your pup be up for it. Staying with me is like a country retreat for your pet - walks through the forest and sunsets and squirrel watching from the deck. If you're lucky, you might even get some professional photos out of it. As a self-employed pet photographer, I work from home when I’m not at a horse show or photo shoot. This gives me lots of flexibility day to day and during the day. I like to let dogs approach me as they feel comfortable and understand that dogs are capable of a wide range of personalities. My number one priority is that everyone feels safe and has their needs met. In my home, well behaved and responsive dogs may be allowed off-leash outside as we have plenty of space far from the nearest road. Dogs that can’t be trusted off leash will enjoy wooded walks around the property or nearby dog-friendly trails.
About: Hello! My name is Erika, and I am a stay at home mom and full time masters student. I have had years of experience working with small and large animals alike. Growing up on a farm has given me experience ranging anywhere from horses to geckos. I currently have three young and playful huskies, Astro, Luna, and Mira, and a cat named Hubble who lords over them all. My yard is fenced in, and I am lucky enough to work from home and take care of my baby and fur babies alike. My pups require active care. I take them for 1-2 walks daily and am able to let them out as often as needed. I lead an active lifestyle and supply many toys for active playtime! I have a fenced in yard and three fur babies to show yours the ropes. There are watering stations located throughout the house and I can accommodate any health needs.
“My dog was very stressed from a long road trip/move and Eliot turned him back into his happy,goofy self after just a few days. I highly recommend her and will use her again if needed.”

“Recently Aleisha did dog walking, check ins for over a 6 week period. She did house sitting for us over a five day trip and found her to be extremely responsible and responsive to all of our two dogs needs. One of our dogs has extreme separation anxiety and is very timid and has difficulty trusting new people. Aleisha came for dog walks a few weeks before our trip and gained Sadie's' trust over that period. While we were away, Sadie accepted Aleisha wholeheartedly. Upon our return, the dogs were excited but very calm and at ease – a real departure from other vacation experiences. Aleisha also spent several nights at our home house sitting. Again we found her to be a true pro and very reliable and respectful. We would have no problem using her again and would recommend her services to anyone who would ask. As a matter of fact, we will be using Aleisha for occasional walks to keep in touch with Sadie and keep their bonds intact. Just such a pleasure to have someone as reliable and trustworthy for both us and our pets.”

I now have my own very spoiled creatures I’m working and going to school but I’m home a lot to I’m mostly looking for something to do in my spare time for a little extra cash Currently living with my parents while I finish school.

About: Your pet's health and happiness is my priority and I will follow instructions to the smallest detail. I absolutely adore all animals! I've grown up with dogs and cats, and have spent at least 3 years pet sitting. I currently own two crazy senior cats who I'm obsessed with. In the recent past I had two sweet and mellow rescue pups. Throughout my childhood I took it upon myself to take care of the family pets. Looking after animals comes naturally to me and you can count on me to be that person at a party who spends more time with the cat than the people. I am available most days and times and am able to be pretty flexible. Weekends can get a little busy but I can fit a visit or two in if needed. Every day I pay attention to the animal's health and mood. I'm quick to notice if something is amiss and take care of it right away while communicating closely with the owner.
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 have many years of experience with cats, all types of personalities. Dogs as well, frequent walking. I do have 4 cats of my own :) I work 3 days a week, not a set schedule, but usually have open availability the other 4 days during the weekdays/weekends. I have a job that requires taking call, so there are times I could have to go into work during a scheduled time, majority a very flexible schedule :) I do not take requests for services in my own home. I am able to spend the nights in your home as needed for cats and dogs
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.
About: My fourth birthday I asked for a dog, and continued to do so every birthday thereafter. Growing up my family was not in a position to have a pup, so I found every other way to engage with them. I walked family and friends dogs, pet sat, and read all the books about dogs and cats I could find in my little school library. As an adult I have been graced with the opportunity to rescue my own pup, and have since learned a whole slew of new skills and knowledge. I have experience caring for dogs with separation anxiety, reactivity, nervousness, and anxiety. (Let's just say my rescue experience really gave me a crash course in how trauma can effect dogs well after they are safe in a home). I have done hours of research (and application of that research) into how to effectively train and respond to behaviors. I personally prescribe to a positive reinforcement system and 'protecting their bubble' dual training method. I would love to meet you and your pup, and find out how I can best help to meet your dogs needs for a happy and healthy life! I'm currently working part time summer hours. I work in behavioral health care for kids and have plenty of time available to care for your pet! My dog is a rescue and we put in time training every day to help build her confidence and trust in the world. She's very nervous of other people and dogs, so unless it seems like a really great fit personality wise between our dogs, I will love providing your pup love, walks, and engagement in your home or out in the community! I prescribe to positive reinforcement training and protecting a dogs bubble. I would love to hear about your dog and that they need. You are their expert and I am here to provide you both support how ever you may need it. If your dogs is like mine and doesn't get along with other dogs, I know lots of places to walk and adventure where it's easy to avoide other pups and also have strategies use if we do come across them such as the Banana method, and training a "center" position, and skills and drills to do before a walk to ensure a dogs engagement and focus is on me before the walk.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since 2014 and have been actively caring for them since 2015. I love both cats and dogs and am very familiar with playtime, feeding, and bedtime routines. I have a flexible schedule at my full-time job. So I would have to compare my schedule to make sure I have your pets care as a priority. Depending on routine, I'm okay with walks, outdoor playtime and any other needs you have for your furry friend. I'm not allowed dogs in my home. However, before my move I had a dog run and a big yard where my dog at the time could just run and feel like a puppy again.
“My pups LOVE Elliot! Ever since their meet and greet, they can’t wiggle and wag fast enough when she pulls into the driveway! Elliot respects what I allow my pups to do and not to do which is great! Highly recommend!”
About: I'm a farmer's daughter and was raised by animals. My grandfather trained wild animals (the newspaper clipping) and fostered that passion in me. A relaxed, healthy individual perceives and interacts with the world differently than a stressed one. I was formerly an emergency room veterinary technician. As much as I love it, I'm no longer physically able to be a vet tech. Caring for them as a sitter brings me joy and satisfaction. I travel with a big Sitter Bag of Tricks. Puzzles, snuffles, licky mats, a potpourri of balls, frisbees and leashes for the pups. For kitties, I have a tube full of wands, nip, pompoms, laser lights, and I'm not afraid to offer puzzles and mats. Kitties like them, too. Everyone enjoys pet relax playlists. My goal is to take care of them physically, emotionally and psychologically. Además, hablo español por si les ofrece. I've done summits with Drs Julie Lee, Judy Morgan, Edward Baissingthwaite and others regarding wellness and holistic care. I'm committed to learning from experts the best ways to help them live their longest, best lives. I know intimately the bond between pets and family, pets as family, and your family will be loved and cared for when you can't be home yourself! I am a certified Fear Free Sitter and a member of PUPS (Professional United Pet Sitters.) I keep it basic: good nutrition, tons of fresh water, exercise, environmental and mental stimulation, good hygiene and husbandry, regular healthcare, physical and spiritual closeness. I work from home so I’m with them 24/7 as needed. When we're separated from our family, even confident, resilient pets can experience some stress. I try to balance that out for them between love and fun. Their care is determined on an individual basis. I care for a variety of species and each is their own person. Learning what they love and sometimes learning new things is half the fun!
About: I have experience caring for multiple dogs at once while keeping everyone on a structured routine for feeding, walks, and playtime. In the past I’ve successfully managed up to five dogs staying together while making sure each dog received attention, exercise, and a calm environment. I’ve also volunteered with the MSPCA where I assisted with administering oral and transdermal medications, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs that may have medical needs. I’m a full-time college student, which gives me flexibility between classes and internships to care for pets. I enjoy using that time to give animals attention, exercise, and companionship. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, exercise, litter box care, and any medications if needed, while making sure they receive plenty of attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, and any medications if needed. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and keep their routine as normal as possible while their families are away.

About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats my whole life and have been pet sitting for family, friends and anyone in need for the last three years!

I am currently working part-time as a nanny most Thursdays through Saturdays, I am typically always available during the beginning of the week and work some half day shifts nannying so my schedule is open to changes. I always ask my clients to provide me with a strict set of rules and requirements, so that both myself, and the client feel comfortable with me being in the space.
About: I grew up with a cat and a dog in the household. Had my own very active playfull dog Shi-la for 11 years, she recently transitioned. I work from home and since Shi-la passed away I've been missing dog walks and play times. Let me help you with your furry family member! I am equally a cat and a dog person, I just love animals! I am patient, kind and loving person and enjoy going for walks. Your pet will be in good hands and will receive a top quality play time. I will be happy to provide extra information if needed. Don't hesitate to ask any questions. I live in a large house in Lisbon Falls and have a car.
About: I have owned and cared for animals for the past 30 years. I grew up on my grandparents farm helping take care of a variety of animals. I worked for 3 years in a veterinary clinic and worked in an emergency as well. I currently own a small farm of my own and plan on providing the best and most fun experience to any pet that I provide care for. I am currently looking to build a client base to begin building my own business of pet sitting and pet care. I have a flexible availability to provide services. I currently own a small farm of my own with horses, goats, chickens, dogs and cats. I have a vast knowledge of animal health needs and care needs.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs and loved animals since I was a small child and I completely enjoy caring for them. I have multiple years of experience with different breeds of both cats and dogs, and would love to be able to take care of yours! :) I work part time, which means I’ll have plenty of days where I can take care of your pets! I’m available for boarding on weekends! I am a college student, so availability may vary. I enjoy taking dogs on walks or even caring for cats inside. In your home I would spend as much time with your pets as you’d like. I’m an easy going girl and would happily care for your pets as if they were my own.
About: I volunteered at the SPCA when I was a child have owned and cared for many animals and I was a Animal Control Officer for 2 years. I work part time for many post offices, But I truly enjoy being with animals, I am very flexible most of the time I have been covering many vacations, I would someday be a full-time dog walker/animal caretaker My dogs are always leashed or in a fence in yard. I would do the same for someone else dog. I would treat them as I do my own
About: I always tune into the unique personality of each animal and I don't rest until I'm sure the animal knows its safe, loved and cared for. Since I was born I have loved animals so genuinely and patiently that I've never encountered a problem, even with the hard to figure out ones. I love them all and my husband does as well. Therefore we treat our pets like they're one of us, with plentiful attention. We are complete home-bodies. We like spending time outdoors, and going for walks. Our home is very inviting as well, with a fenced yard, multiple spare rooms, close to many trails near by and lots of spare blankets and pillows. Feel free to give any advise on how to care better for your dog, and I will be more than happy to accommodate.

“Christina was a great spot for Theodore. He ate better than he ever has at a boarder and the photos Christina took of Theodore while we were away were great. She dod great administering his meds for an ear infection he came down with just before we left. I highly recommend Christina.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Natalie took care of our older Italian Greyhound for a long weekend. She listened thoughtfully to all the intel on Poe we thought would be helpful for a great visit (including wardrobe info!). We felt at ease leaving him in her care. She picked up on his quirks very quickly and adjusted to his behavior/needs. She understands dogs. Highly recommend her!”
“Jennifer welcomed our dog Maggie into her home for several days while we were away. I felt comfortable with Jennifer from our first conversation; she has extensive experience as a Vet Tech, but is also friendly and kind. Maggie was treated like part of Jennifer’s family and was well cared for during her stay. I am so glad we found her and look forward to working with her again!”
“Marcie was available for dog sitting at last minute request (again!). She provided photos and videos of Gus during his stay and truly incorporates him into her family. She was able to accommodate an additional night due to flight changes and I am grateful for her flexibility!”
About: You can be sure that your sweet pup will get the time, love, care, and exercise that they need while they are in my care! I am currently stay at home with my four year old and own a cleaning company. I only clean a few hours a day Monday through Thursday so I’ll have plenty of time to play with a furry pal! I love to walk around our beautiful neighborhood several times a day to get plenty of steps in. We have a large yard in a safe neighborhood. The dog/dogs will be leashed and with me anytime we are outside. I have a large metal crate that the dog can stay in when it needs a rest!
“Matthew took great care of Lucy during the holidays! She came back home happy and with a new toy!! Thank you very much for caring so much about Lucy and taking great care of her, Matt. We really appreciate it!”
“Chelsea is an amazing trusted sitter for our Curtis. She’s great with communication and sending photos and updates. We ran into travel issues when coming home from vacation and she was very understanding and sweet about an unexpected extra day. This truly took my stress down a lot. I would highly recommend Chelsea!”

“Craig did a great job of babysitting our dog Heiwa for two weeks. We received an update with pictures almost every day we were gone, including pictures of Heiwa romping on the beach with Craig and his dog Penny. I highly recommend him if you need a dog sitter. We will definitely use him again next time we need a sitter!”
“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.”
“Nikki was great! Loved our pups as her own and sent many photos to ease our minds while we were gone. Would definitely recommend her for boarding and will reach out to her next time we travel. ☺️”
About: Since becoming fully remote for my full time job in 2020, I have taken on the roll of “trusted pet-sitter” for over 30 families and almost 50 furry friends. Back home in Maryland, I connected with these families just through word-of-mouth and referrals from happy families. Now that I live here in Maine, I would like to continue my expertise and passion for animals, and connect with some loveable furry friends. I am an attentive, detail-oriented pet-sitter, who also knows the importance of respecting another person’s living space and maintaining routines for pets. After years of taking care of every size, shape and age of dog, no request from the owner is too wacky. From complicated medication directions to particular night time routines, I know your pet is part of your family and deserves to go about life as usual, despite mom/dad not being home. Reach out, I would love to connect! I work full-time fully remote! So while I will need WiFi and a desk to type on my laptop while I watch your pet, there is always time for walks, snuggles and whatever else your pet needs. My goal when I pet sit is to keep the pet in its normal environment and routine as much as possible. I am always very clean and respectful of any house I pet sit in.
“We left our cat with Eliot while we were away. This was the first time we used Rover so I wasn’t sure how it would go. She was professional and didn’t seem to mind me checking in with her. She sent us a few pictures which was nice. Thanks Eliot!”
“I don't often leave 5 star reviews, but Amberlynn keyed in to our needs to make Henry's stay with them wonderful. I have a highly reactive dog, and was extremely nervous to leave him with someone, but she had great communication with me leading up to his stay and handled his behavior wonderfully, but of more importance, she also keyed into what I needed to ensure both he, and they, were comfortable together so I could relax and enjoy my vacation without stressing over how he was doing there. We had a lot of communication on the onset to calm my nerves, and once I knew he and they were settled comfortably, we had a few "he's doing great" check ins. Not only would I highly recommend her for her care of my dog, I would also highly recommend her for calmly dealing with an anxious owner.”
