“Megan did an excellent job taking care of my dog for a week stay. Communication was excellent and she is quick to respond to texts. Her boarding service is highly recommended.”


2. Lindsay S.

“Lindsay is paws down the best! She took care of our Shih Tzu, Sasha, like she was family. We could see the love and kindness she poured into every moment with Sasha. It meant the world to us knowing our fur baby was in such good hands.❤️❤️”


3. Erin P.
“Let me start by saying that Erin is an incredible dog sitter who clearly knows what she is doing and cares for doggies. She asked questions about how my dogs need to be cared for/ if they have any special needs, she asked about behaviors and how they like to be loved. I could tell when I picked them up that they’d been given everything they needed. (Plus, she has the sweetest dogs of her own). Will use Erin again for sure!”


4. Tanya W.

“Tanya did such an amazing job! I will definitely use her again. She took my sweet boy in over Christmas and really went above and beyond to make him feel at home.”


5. Pat T.

“Phoebe had a wonderful time staying with Pat. She played and played and played. Pat has a really good arrangement where the dogs can hang out freely downstairs and have access to a fully enclosed yard with a tall and secure fence. Recommended! Thanks Pat.”

“Alex took great care of our lab. She communicated well, staying in touch with texts and pictures. We would definitely book another stay with Alex!”


7. Deborah P.

“We really appreciate Deborah taking such good care of our dog, Blu, while we were away for several days. He enjoyed having other dogs to play with and the ability to play outside in her fenced in yard. He came home tired and happy! Will definitely use her services again in the future.”


8. Ava S.

“Ava is awesome!! We will definitely be using her in the future. She is so responsive and always provides updates with photos and videos. Our pup comes home happy as ever and we know he was treated like family. We are so happy to have found you, Ava!”


9. Ana L.

“She is amazing with my timid dog and captured some amazing photo updates during his stay! Her set up and farm are perfect for any dog frightened of the vet or clinical settings. It has worked wonders on my sweet old dog and he loved his stay so much. Thank you for going above and beyond in all the wonderful updates.”

About: People say I am an animal whisper. Specifically pets. However, I don’t consider myself a whisperer. I call it RESPECT. I treat any animal like it’s my own (I have 5) and I get on the same level with the furry friend (both literally and intellectually). And yes, people may think I’m weird because I talk to the animals out loud but I believe animals who are living organisms (like people) get RESPECT! I currently work part-time. But that won’t stop me. I have 4 days off usually through out the week. Depending on my schedule I’m going to provide services on my days off of my part time job. If a time will not work for both you and me then I will make a priority to try and arrange a time to provide a service as soon as possible. I will walk your furry companions as long as you would like. If it’s really hot out no matter if it’s a short or long walk, I can bring a container and a thing of water as well as during the walk. I will provide rest breaks in the shade. Pet sitting I will play with them, make sure there food is always available (clients preference) and if they need to go out I’ll be happy to take them out.


11. Adam B.

“From the moment we met Adam outside his lovely home, we felt felt very comfortable leaving our two senior dogs with him for 6 days. He seemed very comfortable with our guys and introduced them to his dog pack he had there. He managed their personalities and made sure everyone was safe. We received daily texts with pictures and updates to their goings on, and our dogs were doing very well. He told us they were getting along with lots of dogs and that was really comforting especially since our dogs get very little interactions with others dogs at home. When we came to pick them up, they were relaxed, happy and got right back to their usual routines of lounging. We were very happy with the care Adam gave our dogs and would absolutely bring them back to him next time we need doggie care in the Belfast area. Thank you, Adam!”


12. Katie J.
“Katie is amazing with animals, dedicated, caring and competent. My dog Moose is excited every time he sees her house. She provides plenty of exercise and attention. She communicates very well, kept me updated and sent a few pictures. Highly recommend her.”


13. Alanna R.

“Amazing sitter, kept us updated the entire time and sent photos with every update. Alanna made sure our little girl was well taken care of and comfortable. Will definitely return for any future trips. ☺️♥️”


14. Erin D.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a little kid and helped my parents at my uncle’s farm. I truly love all animals and enjoy their individual personalities. I have experience dog/house sitting dating back to 2000 in the Camden area. Since we moved last year, I’m looking to meet new clients and help you with your furry loved one in the Waterville area. I worked in animal hospitals in my early 20s so I have a great wealth of knowledge to draw from in many areas (but not exotic pets, as none of the veterinarians I worked with had that as a specialization.) I’m currently working from home doing some freelance work and have many opportunities to go for walkies. We are currently without a dog in our home, and I’m looking to get out more. Any pet I take care of is treated as if they’re a member of the family. I believe in spoiling pets with love, but keeping the boundaries of the owner so as not to undo any training. Reinforcing good behavior is always a priority.


15. Jennifer M.

“We had a great experience having Jen care for Jadie. We loved that she had a lot of knowledge dealing with high energy dogs and provided a positive experience for Jadie to play with her dogs. We will definitely use Jen to care for Jadie again!”


16. Elizabeth W.


“We are so thankful to Lizzie for taking such great care of Houston for the week. She made sure he was comfortable and included him in whatever she was doing. Lizzie is so good she anticipate Houston's needs. We know when we leave Houston with Lizzie we are coming back to a happy and healthy dog.”


17. Dakota M.
“We had a great experience using Dakota to care for our 1 year old golden while we visited family for a weekend. She was very responsive and provided pictures and details of his activities which gave us peace of mind our first time using her and first time being away from our pup. We would recommend her to others and will use her again.”


18. Jessica S.

“I was and am very impressed with Jessica and her family for how she took our baby, Miss Gia, in. This was the very 1st time Gia had stayed without us. Gia came home very happy to see us and we'll taken care of. I also LOVED the communication Jess had with us. The pictures, the updates, honestly all of it. We WILL use her again, if she'll have us. A HUGE THANK YOU. ?”




19. Chyna S.

“Brady loved his stay with Chyna, I would absolutely recommend her! Chyna is super sweet, responds quickly and was able to accommodate Brady last minute when our pet sitter canceled last minute. Brady came home happy and healthy, thanks again! :)”


20. Melanie B.

“Melanie provided a safe, nurturing environment for our Lucy. She was warm and welcoming when we met, and clearly gave Lucy lots of love while she was in her care. She has a large yard for dogs to play. She sent me pictures every day, both of Lucy playing with the other dogs, as well as relaxing. I felt completely confident that Lucy was in the best of hands!”
