Dog Sitting in Wiscasset

“Liseli is a wonderful sitter for my critters. Great communication and sends fun photos. I like that she spends time to snuggle and play.”

“Hayleigh did a wonderful job with our cats. They were adopted litter mates at the age of 3 months. They have never been without us, so they were a little shy about showing themselves. Everything was done as asked, feeding, litter box, etc. Would use again if the need arises.”

Del P.

“She watched out car for about a week and I she did amazing. I would highly recommend”

Preston B.

“Jackie was great. She came back for an extra visit to be sure our pup had another chance to go to the bathroom. We'll definitely ask for her help next time we have to leave our pup at home.”

About: I've had dogs, usually one at a time, my entire life. My current dog, Rupert, was adopted from a shelter. Rupert has enriched my life so very much. I know that my wife, the spare parent, is just a bit jealous of how much Rupert and I love each other. I'm working at a job with flexible hours. I would be available for pet care during times when I'm not working my other job. It would be great to be able to coordinate pet care jobs near my human care job. I make sure my dog goes outside for walks, and to go to the bathroom, several times a day. I also like to take Rupert on longer walks on nearby trails at preserves. I make sure he is well fed and watered. Lots of cuddle time. For Lucy, the cat, I am the one that feeds her and takes care of the litter box. Lucy cuddles with the wife more than with me, but still plenty of cuddles and play time together.

About: Currently I am between caregiving clients trying to decide what my next move is. I was born into an animal loving family, extended family, etc. I am 59 years old and have never been without at least a cat or two. I've also had 2 of my own dogs since 2005. My last senior dog passed the rainbow bridge in 2024. Born in Connecticut, lived for 45 years in Maryland and now I am living in Maine where I love it! One reason I fell in love with Maine is you can bring your dog almost anywhere here. They are a pet loving no-kill state! I have administered just about every kind of pet med out there. Every single pet has their own personality and I am very patient to learn that personality so we will become friends. I have a pretty open schedule with no real deadlines, so when ever your pets need walks, feeding, medications or just spend time with them, I am there. My own pets get feed twice a day. The time varies depending on my pet sitting schedule. But usually Its about 10am and 7pm. Whatever instructions left for me for a pet sit, I will follow to the letter. I will ask questions or text later to make sure I understand everything your pet needs. I've never run into an animal not liking me, but I am very aware of them not be comfortable with me at first. That can be stressful for them of course, so its very important that their care instructions are followed to keep them as anxiety free as possible.

“Kathie is excellent at communication and planning the best set of visits to meet my cats' needs. She kept me informed and it made it so easy to be away.”

About: Greetings! I'm Daniel, I've been pet-sitting and dog-walking off and on for 17 years. I love animals: With me, you get a new friend for your pets, and a dependable steward of your home. I believe in the Hawaiian meaning of "Kahu," that we should be guardians and beloved attendants of our animal friends. I devote highly sensitive heart-centered care for your pets for two main reasons: 1) I am a remote worker as a writer and healing coach, so I can be at home with our furry friends. I am not just feeding and walking your dog(s) and caring for your cats; I am providing emotional support and plenty of care (frequent outdoor breaks and walks, playtime, pats, massage, energy work, etc.). 2) I am a professional in the practice of meditation and the healing arts, a path that cultivates empathy, which helps me bond with animals and be more attuned to their needs. I have been on this path for 17 years. I am highly intuitive. I practice Eastern techniques of energy work (qi qong and martial arts) and I am a certified Reiki practitioner, so I love to connect with animals as part of that practice (they are great conductors of energy, which is only ever healing and calming for them to experience). I aspire to the highest level of performance and etiquette. I promise to treat your pets and space as sacred; to maintain a clear boundary between me and your possessions; and to leave no trace. I understand that by inviting me into your home to care for your pets and space that I am with you as a new friend. From my many years of cultivation on my spiritual, healing, and professional path, I assure you my integrity is outstanding, and I would be happy to send you testimonies and references to confirm. Thank you for your trust. I would be happy to chat about sitting or walking for you. I look forward to joining you and yours' in friendship. Warm regards, Daniel I will be available to be at home with your pet for most of every day that I am sitting. My only obligation that takes me out of house are walking other dogs (1 to 3 hours per day) and then the occasional social or other engagement. I will never leave your pet alone for longer than 5 hours. As a remote worker, both for writing and offering healing/coaching services, I work from home and am therefore able to maintain a comforting presence for your pet and provide frequent outdoor time, play, and other care. I recognize the great trust that people grant me in caring for their homes and pets. Integrity is a guiding value of my life: You can rest assured that I will honor my commitment to care for your space and pets with the utmost attention and respect. I'll honor your instructions for being in your house and caring for your pets. I always live lightly, use no more than I need and am permitted to use, and I leave no trace. Thank you for your trust. Daniel

“Ricky was so great with my 2 cats while I was away on vacation for a week. He was Very responsive to text messages, and made sure the cats were well taken care of. My cats were a bit elusive and hesitant at first, but once I saw pictures of both of them interacting with Ricky, I was put at ease knowing they trusted him.”

“Sarah took great care of our kitties even though I admittedly dropped the ball on an important instruction. She was very understanding and I really appreciated her commitment!”

“This is the third time Emily stopped by. She’s a natural animal lover and shows a great deal of respect for our home and caring for our pup. Thank you Emily.”

About: Lots of experience and knowledge from years of taking care of my own, and local families pets. Can stay at pet owners home, do drop in visits, or board pets under a certain criteria. I have experience with young puppies, senior dogs, and large dog breeds! I also have experience with small livestock, rodents, and small reptiles. I am currently in high school, but I am done by 2pm or earlier every day. Weekends are free to give my full attention to the pet. I will provide thoughtful care for your pet, and can update you with many photos and videos. I will make sure to collect emergency phone numbers and vet details in case of emergency. And most importantly I will give your pet lots of love while you are away!

“We’re return customers and we couldn’t be more satisfied! Kelly will do a great job looking after your pets, and she has also helped us in a pinch.”

About: Growing up I’ve had pets ranging from dogs to reptiles. Spending time and taking care of them was never a job but a passion. From volunteering at animal shelters at a young age to pet sitting for friends and family, I continue to express my love and care for animals. I also have a 16 year old Portuguese Water Dog at home and she is my world! I currently work full time from 8am to 4pm Mon-Fri. Sitting for pets before and after my work hours on those days is no problem of mine if the owner is ok with them spending that period of time alone. That being said I am also able to spend nights at owners homes on said weekdays. I live in a private neighborhood with great dog walking roads and trails. I also have an elderly dog who enjoys company and a backyard for the two of them to play.

About: If you want your pets/children/homes well taken care of give me a call! I will make sure all of your needs are met if you hire me! I plan on freeing up my schedule to do more jobs through the day instead of one full time job. Help me get started by hiring me! If I was in the position to hire someone to babysit, house sit, or pet sit, I would want someone to take all of my requests seriously and do a good job so that’s what I do!

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.

About: I’ve taken care of plenty of family/friends pets for a few years. We have a 1yr old lab and a 2 yr old cat as well. I love to work with puppies on their sit and stays (or really anything you might want assistance with). I can be sure to keep the training going! Nothing is better than a well trained dog! I currently work Monday-Friday but am happy to do evenings/overnights or even weekends for your favorite loved ones! I can also stay overnight during the week as well and go back after I’m out of work if that is ok with you and your pets schedule!! We have a 1 yr old lab who loves to play and is happy to if your pets allow it! We don’t use a leash on him at home as we live in the woods but if your dog is a runner I will keep them on a leash so we don’t have any issues. We have a run we can hook them on to play outside if they prefer to not be on a leash. Lastly our favorite place to hangout is in our basement because our big guy can run around and be in a safe place!
