Pet Sitting Wayne

About: I have been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember. From yorkies, to our alaskan malamute, and many shelter dogs, I have seen it all. I have been working professionally with dogs for around a year now. I worked in a doggy daycare setting for 6 months, and have been working at a shelter ever since! These experiences have given me knowledge in how to better understand body language, social cues, behaviors, and fear free handling. Even before professional experience, I have been one of the primary caretakers to our family dogs, medicating, feeding, training, etc, is no foreign task to me:) I understand how stressful it is to trust a random person to take care of your animals, but I promise to care for your animal with the same patience, attention, and love, I give my own:) I currently have a completely open schedule, so I’m available most days and times! Whether you need early mornings, evenings, weekends, or last minute care, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether that means long walks around the neighborhood, playtime in the yard, sticking to a feeding schedule, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship and cuddles, I’ll make sure they’re cared for exactly the way you would. I’m familiar with the surrounding areas and love spending time outdoors, so your pup will get plenty of exercise and enrichment. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress free experience so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring and dependable hands.

“This was my first time using Rover/ leaving my 2 dogs overnight. I have an elderly dog and a puppy. Marissa was thoughtful and thorough when tending to both dogs! She made suggestions, asked great questions to be sure she knew what they needed, and I had a wonderful night away knowing that my bubs were well taken care of. 100% would ask her to return again. Thank you so much, Marissa!!”

About: I am an animal lover who would love to provide care to your pet so you don't have to worry about leaving them at home while you're at work or on vacation! My services include dog-walking, drop-in visits to check on and play with your pup, overnight boarding if you're away on vacation (at my home or yours), or dog-sitting for the day while you're at work. I have experience with volunteering at various animal shelters, caring for dogs on Rover for several years, owning several family dogs growing up, and spending time with my parents dog, Boomer (a rescue Shih-tzu yorkie mix), my sisters dog Lola (a mini schnauzer) and my in-laws’ golden retriever, Remi. As of June, we also have a golden retriever puppy of our own who adores other dogs, so it is important that your dog gets along with other dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I love hanging out with the doggos and will be flexible with our activities based on their age, activity level and owner preferences. I love exercising and being outdoors so I’m always willing to go for walks or hikes with your dog! Or if they’re older I can stay in and relax with them too 😊 I have a very flexible work schedule and am home a lot so will be able to devote lots of attention to your furry friend. My husband and I live in a home on 5 acres on a quiet rural road in Maine that is perfect for taking dogs for walks or a swim in the pond (if their parents say yes!). Your dog will have plenty of room in the house and on our land to play and go for walks down our quiet road. I also am able to travel to your home to watch your dog too.

“Sophia did a great job with our old, difficult girl while we were away for a week. She can be hard for anyone but me and her dad to deal with but Sophia made it seem like an easy task (after the first meeting jitters were gone). Everything went great and she was quick to contact with any problems or questions. Definitely glad we found her, especially so far away from any major cities or towns. Will definitely book again!”

“We needed someone to drop in on our dog who was alone in our motorhome in Vermont while we were on a day long bus tour. Kyle came the night before to meet our Charlotte and spent time with her when we were gone. He is very dependent on time and a pleasure to work with.”

“Richard took very good care of my finicky kitty, Ernest, and sent photo updates even though Ernest was doing his best to hide under the bed :)”

“Crystal was superb for stop-in visits. Very diligent and excellent communication. Would be happy to use her again.”

“Paige is awesome! She took great care of Stella while I was away! She sent me pictures and kept me updated! It was my first time using rover and a great experience! Would definitely ask her to look after Stella again and recommend her! :)”

“Abigail was amazing! She sent great recaps on both of her drop in visits with my dogs- it looks like the dogs loved her and It felt great knowing they were getting bathroom breaks and fed during a super busy day!”

About: I have hands-on veterinary medicine experience, including working in an overnight animal emergency hospital, so I'm comfortable caring for pets with medical needs and recognizing when something may require veterinary attention. I'm experienced with medications, senior pets, anxious pets, and animals who need extra patience and individualized care. I also understand how important it is to maintain each pet's normal routine while their family is away. Caring for animals is a big part of my everyday life, so I’m very comfortable building my schedule around their needs. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routines with regular meals, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, companionship, and medication when needed. My goal is to make their time away from their family feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. When house sitting, I keep pets in the comfort of their own home and maintain their normal routines as closely as possible. I provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, companionship, and medications when needed. I take the time to learn each pet's personality, preferences, and boundaries so they receive individualized care rather than a one-size-fits-all routine. I also treat my clients' homes with the same care and respect I would my own, keeping things clean, secure, and comfortable while their family is away.

About: I have experience caring for an elderly dog who required daily medication and eye drops, so I understand the extra patience and attention that senior pets may need. I’m comfortable following medication schedules and ensuring pets receive the care they need. My dog is also very needy and loves constant attention, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs who want extra cuddles, companionship, and reassurance. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities, and I’m happy to give them the time, patience, and attention they deserve. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, especially on my days off. I currently work 10-hour shifts on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so I am generally unavailable for extended daytime visits in those days. I have Thursdays and weekends off, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and longer stays. I’m also happy to work around my schedule when possible and communicate clearly with pet owners about my availability. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I would make sure they receive the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I always try to keep pets as comfortable and happy as possible by sticking to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I’ll follow their instructions for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and anything else their pet needs. I’m also happy to give pets plenty of attention and companionship, especially if they like having someone.

About: Hello! I am new to Rover but I have been working with animals all my life from a very young age and I have been pet sitting for about 4 years. There were always pets in the home, mostly dogs and cats all my life and I have thorough experience being around animals and knowing how to take care of them. I took a major part in taking care of the puppies that my family bred most of my childhood, I have experience in working with a variety of animals such as dogs, cats, reptiles, roosters/chickens, horses, guinea pigs, etc. Besides working with my own pets I have been pet sitting for around 4 years now and have become very comfortable working with other peoples pets. I pride myself on my attention to detail and focus on making sure your pet/pets are as comfortable as possible. I am currently a student but most of my classes are online so I am very flexible and available pretty much every day of the week currently. I am able to be intuitive and approach every animal with the care and attention that is specific to their needs. I am sensitive to boundaries and always making sure to focus on listening to what they are communicating.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and small animals for three years now. I also have experience with housesitting and babysitting. I work two 12 hour day shifts a week. I am currently working part time two 12 hour days. Dogs go out before I go to work and after. On my days off I am able to spend more time with them. I cannot offer pet sitting in my home at this time. I have three years of house/dog sitting experience as well as cats. I am able to stay at the clients place as needed for pet care.

About: I started a career in dog care in 2010. I have extensive experience with all dog breeds in boarding, day care, training, grooming and vet tech. I then began rescuing Pugs and have my 5th one currently. I love all animals and look forward to caring for yours! I have a flexible schedule. Let's see what works for both of us. I'm available as often as needed and I have reliable transportation available I have a dog park across the street but also plenty of regular walking trails if your pet isn't social. My dog is very friendly and always happy to make a new friend

“Excellent pet sitter, very helpful and great with my pets”

About: I’ve worked at 2 doggy daycares in the last few years where we did boarding. I’ve also worked in a cat boarding facility and have worked at pet stores for about 5-6 years. I was trusted with cleaning up after and giving medications to pets that needed it. I’m currently working part time in Freeport so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets and spend time with them and take them on walks depending on weather. I live in a wooded area with access to tie outs so your pets and I could sit outside on good days and play. I have an extra room in the house where I can easily board your pet but would require you to bring a crate if they’re crate trained depending on the size of the pet. I do have two crates available that I could use if you’re unable to bring their crate. I have 2 cats in the household along with my fiance so they would have to be cat and man friendly.

“Breanna is a life saver. We lost a sitter last minute and had to scramble, and she was there the next day for the meet & greet, prepared and taking notes and asking good questions. The Boys took to her immediately - she even got the shy one out on her 3rd visit. Good communication, great photos. Booking again right away!”

About: I have taken care of various different fur babies my whole life. From my grandma’s elderly diabetic cat, to many little baby kittens. Making animals feel safe and cared for makes me feel so fulfilled. I also have been bathing and doing regular grooming since I was old enough to understand how to. I’ve taken in strays and helped regime them or reunite them. I also took in and nursed back to health a kitty that I witnessed get hit by a car. Some special skills that I possess would be I’m very patient loving person who has a very big heart when it comes to animals and I can’t wait to have a future caring for them.
