About: Hey there, A little bit about me, I’m a mom to Kilo my 90lb 8year old malamute and ride or die hiking buddy. We hike,swim,play,and adventure outdoors everyday. I currently don’t have any cats at my household but I have had the pleasure of raising two cats in my life. My pet care experience ranges from puppy/kittens to elder animal care. I’m located in Bethel,ME and spend most of my time playing in the mountains. Hiking,snowboarding,xc skiing,snowshoeing,trail running, biking. I’m also an artist and entrepreneur. I have a very flexible schedule working for myself and can accommodate most times of day or days for walks, visits, and overnight stays. Weekdays and weekends are open for me. I’m unable to pet sit at my home due to my dog kilo being a dominant breed. She’s incredibly friendly but can be territorial. I’m comfortable doing drop in visits, pick ups, and stays at your home if that’s an option you’d like. I’ve pet sit for friends,family, and river clients for years.
About: I have a personalized approach and am dedicated to meeting the unique needs of every furry friend. With extensive experience in training puppies and providing specialized care for senior pets, I ensure that each animal receives the attention and support they deserve. My ability to tailor activities and routines to suit individual personalities and requirements sets me apart, creating a comfortable and enriching experience for pets under my care. From basic obedience training to gentle senior companionship, I'm committed to providing top-notch care that fosters trust and happiness for both pets and their owners. I am Pet First Aid & CPR Certified. I live in a private association and have a sizable, secluded yard that borders a stream and pond. Since I work remotely from home four days a week and have summers off, pet care seamlessly integrates into my routine. Each morning, I dedicate time to feeding, walking and playing with my pets before diving into work tasks. Throughout the day, I take short breaks to ensure they receive attention and exercise. During the summer months, I have the flexibility to extend our outdoor adventures and spend quality time bonding with them on the the trails or swimming. Regular grooming sessions, vet appointments, and training sessions are also scheduled into my weekly agenda to ensure their overall well-being. Essentially,d pets are an integral part of my daily and weekly rhythms. I provide pets with a quiet space, leash walks in safe areas, and separate feeding spots to ensure comfort and safety. I integrate visiting pets with my own for socialization and play. Opportunity for off-leash adventures for dogs with great recall. I have a sizable, secluded yard away from traffic.
About: Hii!! I’m a patient, caring sitter with 3 years of experience of caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I’m skilled at giving medications, calming anxious pets, and provided the attention your furry baby needs. I’m happy to send frequent updates to keep you at ease, treating your pet with all the love and care they deserve. I am currently looking for some time to spend with pets when I am not working. I have a passion to be with animals and it brightens my day to help someone and spend time with a cute furry pet. I love to be active and create an environment that the pets can thrive and be loved. I have free time throughout the week to tend to their needs and get them out of the house or play with them to get their jitters out. For dogs, I love to play with them and go for walks or runs so they can go explore. For cats, I make sure their environment is clean and give them constant snuggles and comfort.
About: I have 28 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. As a proud parent to a cattle dog mix and a Malaysian street dog (both seniors I've raised since puppyhood), I understand the unique needs pets have at every life stage. My training experience includes basic obedience, house training, and leash training, with particular expertise in reactive dogs and high-energy breeds that need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I believe in positive reinforcement and meeting each pet where they are - understanding their individual personality and needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. I'm comfortable managing multiple pets, administering medications, and handling various situations that may arise. Having cared for both puppies and senior dogs, I'm experienced with the special attention older pets require. My cat experience spans many years, so I'm equally comfortable with feline friends. Whether your pet needs gentle care, structured exercise, or just someone who understands their quirks, I focus on creating a safe, loving environment where they can feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I run my own business from home which means I make my own schedule! My availability varies but I keep my calendar up to date and I am generally available during the day. I know how important it is to get your pup outside for some adventures. My two like to be outside all the time. I'm a very active person and want to give your pups a great walk or playtime so they're tired and happy.
About: I’ve grown up with animals since I was young including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, rodents, etc! I love volunteering at rescues and have been throughout the years (shoutout to Rescue Charlie’s Friends, a very well organized rescue that helps thousands of dogs all year round) My friends go to me when they need help with pet care, I love helping out when I can especially when my friends just need a little getaway :)) Looking for anyone that would need spontaneous dog walks!! I am currently unable to do consistent schedules/care with clients but willing to pop in for any urgent needs :) I have a kitty named Alf and he loves relaxing music/lofi so my partner and I always leave it on for him when we have to be out for awhile, we end up finding him napping like a rock :) It really comes down to a few things, toys, treats, and music and my boy is happy 😸
About: I have been pet sitting for a long time now and even made it my summer job in college. My goal is to give your pet plenty of love and attention to make them feel comfortable. I have a 2 year old mini schnauzer who loves all dogs of all sizes and he will make sure your pet has plenty of play time that when you get home they are tired. I work fully remote so I am always home. I have a yard out front and then snowmobile trails behind my apartment where we can go for long walks. I work fully remote from home and will always be around :) I am usually up around 6:30 am and go to bed around 10/10:30 pm I offer a lot of love and attention to all pets. I love taking my dog out a few times a day and make sure he gets at least a couple long walks. I have a living room for them to play or my yard out front is just as great. My doors are always closed and I live in a safe area of Fryeburg and live on a dead end road. I promise your animal will get more attention not just from me but from my dog.

These skills, combined with a genuine love for animals and a commitment to their well-being, make me a reliable and exceptional choice for pet sitting.

About: I live on a 26 acre farm, with all sorts of animals, I have grown up with them and have learned how to love and care for them all.

My availability to care for your animals is quite flexible, I work close to home and can work around my schedule to accommodate you and your animals routine.

About: With eight years of animal care experience, six of them being In veterinary medicine and two years in grooming and shelter care you can trust me when I say I know animals! I have worked with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, rabbits, mice, birds and some reptiles. I have knowledge of many different illnesses and conditions that are common among dogs, cats and small mammals due to my time in veterinary medicine. I am proficient in reading body language and using "fear free" techniques to make pets comfortable. I am currently working a four day work week, so my last three days of the week are my free time to spend with your pet! I currently do not offer pet care in my own home. However when I am at yours, I will follow your pets individual routine to make your absence as easy on them as possible. Each pet is unique and whatever they need, I will provide!
