“Gus stayed with Briana for 3 weeks. Like she says on her rover page: she treats your dog like her own. Kept us informed which helped us relax. We would leave Gus with Briana again and Gus would agree!”


“Rebecca made me feel very comfortable with Tilly's care before and during her boarding. We had a meet and greet where Tilly and Congo seemed to get along, and Rebecca eased my worries as a first time Rover user. Rebecca sent me photos daily and brought her on lots of walks and spent almost all of her time with Tilly. I know Tilly really loved her week with Rebecca by how absolutely beside herself in excitement she was when they were briefly reunited the next day after I returned (forgot her bed & towel there) and I would definitely book Rebecca again and recommend her to a friend.”



“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”


“Britanyerin was amazing- great communication before and during my dogs stay. Luna came home happy and exhausted from playing with the other dogs and children. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”


“Another fun visit at Alina’s for Jaxon! We picked him up early to take him for a hike in the mountains. He was excited! He always seems well-rested and calm when we pick him up from Alina’s. He’ll be back!”


About: I've been trusted to take care of multiple types of dogs since ~age 10! I am an animal lover at heart, and I've had many different animals throughout my lifetime, including an African Pgymy Hedgehog. I pride myself on providing top-notch care in all aspects, ensuring your dog is comfortable in my home, feels safe, is well taken care of, and having fun! I work from home so I will have plenty of time to devote toward caring for your fur baby! I am able to provide frequent potty breaks, medications and meals as scheduled, as well as love and treats throughout the day! Can also provide anything else your pup may require. I have a fenced in grass back yard with a pool, as well as an unfenced grass front yard area. I have a dog of my own, a 2.5 yr old cattle dog/lab mix named Zelda who is extremely friendly, intelligent, and high energy. Although she does have the ability to be chill as well! At our home, we typically enjoy some exercise in the morning such as a walk in the woods, followed by mid-morning nap time, then later in the afternoon, play time with jolly balls or tennis balls, or swimming in our fenced in backyard pool area/ playing in the hose if your pup so desires. Evening usually consist of another walk along with treats and relaxing on the couch. I also have a large crate that can be set up as needed.

“Jessica and her family were lifesavers! They took our two dogs last minute and loved on them so well. They did such a good job of integrating our dogs and sending lots of pictures during their stay. Our dogs came back so happy.”


“Laura and Bill were great hosts and really made us feel comfortable about leaving our dog with them for the weekend. They made sure to have us inside to meet and greet and asked all about Mabel's specific needs and habits. She got lots of playtime while she was with them and seemed right at home! Laura and Bill sent plenty of photos and updates throughout the weekend too. We will definitely bring Mabel back next time were headed to Maine.”


About: Dogs and cats love my hands-on, dependable care. Whether it’s timely feeding, active walking, tossing a frisbee or tennis ball or a soothing snuggle, your beloved dog will love to see me. You can rest easy knowing your companion is in good hands. I am available for overnight sits with advance notice as well as drop-in visits. Weekdays I can drop in as well as evening visits. I am also available for walks. Please note if you are farther than 15 miles from Bridgton, I will require reimbursement for fuel expenses. I am able to care for small dogs in my home but prefer to care for pets in your home due to restrictions in my HOA.

About: I grew up with dogs, since I can remember, I was watching all of my neighbors dogs before I was even old enough to work. I have no problem, administrating medication‘s, or even giving them a bath or doing their nails. I love animals so much that one day I hope to grow up and have a big piece of land so that I can hold a sanctuary for all the animals I can give a good home too and rehabilitate. This is my full-time job watching your loved ones and helping out in anyway I can so I am fully and completely at your disposal. I have an un fence yard currently so unless you’re comfortable with having them be off the leash I’ll take them for a walk or to a dog park with your permission. I don’t mind animals on my furniture, but if I were in your home and that’s not cool with you, just let me know. All I wanna do is provide comfort and enjoyment while giving you the ability to relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Amazing as always! And our puppy intro of Kiva is going perfectly! I can't wait for her to start :) Although I need to run it by Bagheera as she will be crashing his party!!!”


About: I have cared for dogs from puppies to senior pups. I have taken care of family pets for family and for friends. I have also cat sat for many of my friends and family. I am done with work around 5pm so there is plenty of daylight to get in a good walk for your dog or a good game of fetch! I currently care for our 3 dogs with multiple walks through the day and hikes when time allows. Also I play with the cat atleast once a day

About: For over two years, my life has been a revolving door of furry faces, wagging tails, and the occasional purr-fect cuddle. Fostering animals isn't just a hobby; it's a heartfelt commitment to providing temporary homes and endless love to those who need it most. Each animal comes with its own unique story, personality quirks, and, of course, challenges. I am currently a nanny and a business owner of a plant shop here in Maine! I have three days off each week, and am busy with weddings on weekends usually! I am completely free when it’s my time with your animals and will help in anyway I can to help them feel comfortable and accommodated for. I’m happy to do weekly check in’s and care! Caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, is my passion. With over two years of fostering experience, I've developed a keen understanding of each animal's unique needs and quirks. My approach combines a nurturing environment with a focus on their individual well-being, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and stimulated.

“Kate & John were amazing with my dad’s dog, Walter! He is an anxious boy, and they made sure he felt at home, and got him settled right in. Their dogs, Theo and Luna, were very friendly and welcomed him with happy tails and they had a lot of fun together. They took him on adventures to a brook, walking trails and lots of playing fetch. They were very responsive and communicative which put my nervous dad at ease and he was able to enjoy his vacation worry free. It is very apparent that this family enjoys welcoming other dogs into their home and caring for them, we highly recommend Kate & John!”


About: Your home or mine! I have raised goats, llamas, horses, cattle, chickens, turkeys, dogs, cats and bunnies. I have much experience with different breeds, medication administration, and my demeanor is calm and patient. I live on 8 acres of peaceful, quiet fields and forest. My schedule allows me to spend much time with my guests and I thoroughly enjoy going on long walks on trails and swims in the river. I am also located by many local inns and am happy to care for your pet while you are at dinner, off exploring, or are unable to bring your dog. I work part time, and I work close to home so I am able to run home if need be. On work days, generally I am not away from home more than 5 hours at a time. I am not by any major roads and live on a quiet deadend road. my home is situation in the middle of my 8 acres. There are fields, a small pond, and woods with trails, and extensive gardens. Dogs are always leashed unless I know the dog incredibly well and its recall to me is flawless. If the dog is outside, I am with it. No runs are used. I love to walk on woods trails and I avoid places where I might run into others with dogs. My primary concern is keeping animals safe, calm, active, and happy. My your adult daughter lives with me and is also a well respected pet sitter so we often serve as each other's back up should one need to leave the house.

“Jenn couldn’t have provided better care for my sweet senior dog Frank. She made special accommodations for him at her house and was really aware of what he might need to feel right at home. She was really communicative and sent lots of photos of my pup. I felt really comfortable leaving Frank knowing Jenn was taking such good care of him.”
