About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 3+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I have two dogs and a cat of my own, so I understand just how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or a cozy drop-in visit, I’m here to make sure your furry family members feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Their comfort and happiness are my top priority—because when they’re happy, I’m happy too! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! This summer, I’m working just three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility and free time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Once school starts again, my schedule will be even lighter, so I’ll have consistent availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and quality cuddle time. I love spending my downtime with animals—it’s genuinely one of the most rewarding and joyful parts of my day. Whether it’s early morning, mid-day, or evening visits, I’m more than happy to work around your pet’s needs and routine! When caring for pets in a client’s home during drop-ins and walks, my goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their familiar environment. During drop-ins, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh food and water, clean up any messes, and spend quality time with them—whether that’s playing, cuddling, or just keeping them company. For walks, I ensure your dog gets the exercise, mental stimulation, and potty breaks they need, always keeping safety a top priority. I tailor every visit to your pet’s routine and personality, so they feel calm and cared for while you’re away.

“I think that my dog Elsa can sense Melanie's love for dogs. During our earlier meet and greet, Elsa, a fairly shy dog, seemed comfortable with Melanie, going back to her for treats and pets. For this visit, Melanie showed up right on time, followed the plan we talked about, gave updates with photos, and gave a great, informative summary of the visit. We've rarely had carers/sitters for my dog, so I was very happy to see that Elsa seemed relaxed and calm when I got home. I would highly recommend Melanie with the experience and sense of responsibility she brings to the work. Thanks Melanie!”

About: Belmont, Maine | Experienced Pet Sitter | Farm Animal Friendly | Reiki-Calming Pet Sessions Hi, I’m Geoffery—a lifelong animal caregiver with 20+ years of hands-on experience caring for pets and farm animals alike. I grew up on a farm and have spent my life surrounded by animals of all kinds, offering everything from basic pet sitting and walks to drop-in visits, long-term fostering, and livestock care. I specialize in daytime house sitting, split AM/PM visits, and care for farm animals, senior pets, and anxious companions. Whether I’m tending to dogs, cats, pigs, or cows, I approach every animal with calm presence, kindness, and deep understanding. ⸻ I offer: • Drop-in visits (20–60 min) • Day-sitting at your home (9am–5pm) • AM/PM split visits • Light livestock care (pigs, cows, goats) • Medication, special diets, senior support • Walks, enrichment, snuggles, and updates • Optional Reiki-Calming Sessions for anxiety relief, post-surgery recovery, or general well-being My clients often say their pets are calm, happy, and tired after time with me—because I don’t just stop in, I bond, I engage, and I treat your animals like family. I also send photos, updates, and notes to keep you in the loop and reassured while you’re away. ⸻ My Background: • CNA with 10+ years in professional caregiving • Raised on a working farm with animal husbandry experience • Foster caregiver for struggling families’ pets • Comfortable with reactive or high-energy dogs • Reiki practitioner with gentle touch and energy healing experience • Available for last-minute or weekend requests when possible ⸻ What Sets Me Apart: • I provide extended care (not just 15-minute visits) • Comfortable with non-traditional animals (livestock, senior, special needs) • I work with clients to create custom plans—every pet is different • I’m home full-time and focus solely on animal care and community healing ⸻ Let’s Connect: Send a message with your pet’s name(s), needs, and ideal schedule. I’d love to meet them—and I’ll treat your home and animals with the same care I give my own. Schedule I run my own full-time pet care and healing business based out of my home in Belmont, Maine. This means I’m highly flexible and available throughout the day for visits, walking, house-sitting, and last-minute requests. Because I focus solely on this work, I give your pets my full attention, energy, and presence. Safety, Trust & Environment I care for animals in their own homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. Every animal deserves to be treated with kindness, respect, and intuitive understanding—and that starts with meeting them on familiar ground. When I enter your home, I bring a calm, grounded presence. I follow your pet’s existing routine as closely as possible while gently introducing enrichment, affection, and companionship. Whether your dog loves fetch in the yard, your cat prefers a quiet window perch, or your livestock need a gentle hand and clear communication, I adjust to meet their energy and needs. I specialize in tending senior pets, anxious or reactive animals, and pets with special diets or medications. I also offer Reiki calming sessions—gentle energy work that helps soothe nerves, balance energy, and promote well-being.

About: With over 3 years of professional pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—including puppies, senior pets, and those with special routines. I’m not just a sitter—I’m your pet’s second best friend while you’re away. What sets me apart is the level of personalized care I provide, my strong communication with pet parents, and my flexibility to adapt to each pet’s unique habits and energy levels. I work full-time as a pet sitter, so your pet’s well-being and routine are my top priority. I’m experienced with multi-pet households, large breed dogs, and high-energy pups that need extra playtime.

If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, communicates consistently, and treats your pets like family—I’d love to help. Pet care is a big part of my daily life—I’m a full-time sitter, so my schedule revolves around the pets I care for. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they’re used to. I also block off time for overnight stays and am available on weekends and holidays with advance notice. Since this is my primary focus, I’m flexible and responsive, making it easy to accommodate custom routines or last-minute bookings when needed. Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or stopping in for visits, I treat every space with the same respect and attention I would expect for my own. I make it a priority to stick closely to each pet’s routine so they feel safe and secure while their owner is away. In a client’s home, I maintain a calm, clean environment, follow all feeding, potty, and medication instructions closely, and always double-check doors, gates, and locks. I’m mindful of each pet’s comfort level and body language, especially when it comes to shy or energetic pets, and I adjust my approach to match what they need—whether it’s quiet company, active play, or just a little extra patience. For overnight stays, I create a peaceful and familiar atmosphere by keeping to your pet’s bedtime routine, favorite toys, and walking routes. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Maine coons need to be brushed frequently because of their long hair and cleaning litter boxes, dog walks and more! Animals are apart of a family, they have needs and wants as well. They can communicate to you through their body movements and actions. I make sure they are heard and get the care that will help them be healthy and happy!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs cats rabbits and horses ever since I was 10. I’ve cared for new born kittens as well as senior cats at the Humane Society for almost 10 years. And cared for my neighbors’ dogs. From volunteering I’ve learn much about behaviors for both dogs and cats and have discovered I have a talent for working with them. I decided at retiring that I would like to begin in home pet sitting earning a living. I also manage an Airbnb with pets and have had great experiences with both dogs and and cats. I’m available all times but desire at least a week in advance notice. Daily weekly and hourly with breaks when needed for managing my Airbnb. Usually to clean after check out. Also per your needs I will need to have a brief break in the day to drive home to make sure my cats are fed and happy with some play time if I am asked to do overnights. I have 4 cats now. They get fed on special foods on a schedule. When they are eating I clean their cat boxes and when they are finished, I clean their bowls. Before they begin their daily naps , I play with each of them. They range in age from 19 to 1 yr. I also check their water bowls throughout the day or night depending. I can give them treats anytime. I also have learned various medical skills and hope to go back to school for a third degree as a vet tech and if life allows veterinary practice.
