“This was our first time using Rover. We have an anxious puppy and weren’t sure how it would go. Jessica made several house visits ahead of time so Nieva could get to know her. Nieva was excited to see her and sad when her new friend left. We’ll definitely be using her in the future. I was able to relax knowing she was in good hands.”

“Alison was great with our three kitties! She kept us updated on how they were doing and sent pictures. We loved that she stayed at the house as they are very social indoor kitties. We would definitely use Alison again!”

About: I am always the first to be called when a friend needs doggy daycare or house sitting with dogs, cats, and often other animals. I’ve fostered and found homes for rescues internationally and domestically. I’ve worked for a doggy daycare where I was responsible for 50-70 dogs with a crew of 2-4 people. I also spent a few months off and on taking care of 10-22 huskies while part of the herd were sled racing. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and enjoy seeing all of their unique personalities. I’ve loved animals since I was small. We always had cats when I was little, as well as ducks, chickens, guinea pigs, rabbits, my turtle boy China B, parakeets, and a Senegal parrot foster. I was surprised with a rescue dog when I was 10, Hemingway. It was an amazing experience and I helped train Hemmy to be a service dog for my grandmother who was visually impaired. Winter rates are now $250/day for basic overnights, includes 3 pets. Will adjust include extra rates accordingly to animals and household needs. I’m self employed and have the flexibility to set my daily schedule around your animals needs and regular routine. Lots of scritches, play time and love are part of my commitment to your pets. I am available for short and long walks (depending on your animals needs and ability), playtime, companionship, love and affection, meals and snacks as well as monitoring medication if needed.
“Our little dog was in the best of hands with Jessica. She kept us updated with how he was doing, stayed attentive to his needs throughout the weekend, and offered a safe, comfortable indoor and outdoor space to explore. Highly recommend!”

“Emma did a fantastic job taking care of our dog and cat over a 1.5 week period. Our house was also well looked over while we were away on vacation. On top of that, she is a wonderful caring person and easy to work with.”

“Jazlynne is wonderful! She gave us lots of updates and pictures- and as first time users of this app made us feel so comfortable leaving our pup in her care. It’s easy to tell she genuinely loves animals. I would ask her to care for our dog again in a heartbeat!”

About: I have had experience with pets since I was I child, my family and I love all kind of pets , I am from Costa Rica so I always had a pet in my house and around from friends and family. I am available most of the time, I am super open to work holidays, weekends and nights, just contact me before booking to check availability. I have my own farm house in Swanville Maine, a very quiet and very peaceful place without many neighbors around, perfect for pets and very near from Belfast.
“Chuck did a great job house sitting for two weeks with our two older cats. Our cats need extra care; they are 15 years old, finicky eaters, and one needs insulin shots twice a day (for diabetes) and a pain pill once a day (for arthritis). Chuck took great care of, and quickly bonded with, both of them. He also took great care of our home. All while sending us frequent updates and pictures. When we got home our cats were calm and happy--proof that Chuck had given them lots of loving attention, managed to get them to eat regularly, and ably handled the medical needs of our more ailing kitty. We highly recommend Chuck as a conscientious pet sitter.”
“Bohni was a treat on all levels!!! She stayed with my cat for 3 nights and 4 days.. I think my cat likes her more. The house was better than I left it.. Angel was calm and happy.. I was able to be away from her for the first time and feel confident in her STELLAR care.. if there were 10 stars she would get them all!!!!! Got photos all well everyday!!!! Happy customer”

“Libby was an excellent sitter. I was in town for a graduation celebration at the University of Maine and Libby watched my puppy while I attended an event. She arrived on time at my vacation rental and took excellent care of my puppy. I am so grateful that I was able to leave my puppy with someone I could trust and he had so much fun with Libby. I highly recommend Libby for all your pet needs.”

“Kirk is incredible and we are already brainstorming reasons to have him pet sit :P He takes such good care and consideration of the pet’s needs. I saw how the other pets looked up to him for safety and comfort. He took great care of our anxious girl. Thanks Kirk!”


“Ann was a great pet and house sitter. Our pets (Oscar & Lacey) loved her, I actually think they miss her. She was a great communicator and sent us photos while we were away. We would definitely ask Ann to sit again and again!”

About: I have had and cared for dogs of all shapes and sizes my whole life. I have left a 20 year career in the medical field to pursue my dream of spending as much time as possible with fur babies (mine and yours!) I am trustworthy and understand fully how much your pets mean to you as I have two pups of my own. They will be safe and loved under my care. I am currently in the process of taking a dog walking and behavioral course through IAP College to further educate myself on caring for dogs. Whether I am walking, visiting or spending the night with your pup they will be my only commitment and they will have my undivided attention. I believe it is best for dogs to remain in their own home when their families are away if possible. I feel that it eases their stress to be able to stay in their own environment with their regular routine. My goal is to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible.
“Geoffery has been caring for my pets for some time. I’ve added a couple more pets to the mix and Geoffery has been such a caring and compassionate pet sitter for every one of them. They look forward to seeing him when I’m away and that’s a huge comfort!”
About: A lifetime animal lover with 5+ years of experience. I pride myself on my thoroughness and dedication to providing for you and your furry family members! I am a teacher, so come summer time I will have a large amount of availability to walk or pet sit! As of right now, I work M-F 7:45-2:45 but could arrange to let your dog out for a potty break around 11:30. I am very attentive and always make sure to keep your pet’s safety a number 1 priority. Monitoring them when in the house/on walks is a must and keeping in contact with you about any possible issues that may come up are always important.

Bucksport pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jess communicated well before and throughout the stay, sent updates and pictures, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. When our travel plans were delayed, she was flexible and stayed later than planned so Rollo wouldn’t have to be alone too long, which we really appreciated. Most importantly, Rollo was happy and content when we got home.

We had a wonderful experience during our week away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were able to stay in their own home and keep their normal routines while we were gone. Jessica was communicative, and clearly cared about our pets as if they were her own. We received regular updates and photos, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our trip. When we returned home, the animals were happy and well cared for, and the house was just as clean and organized as when we left. We’re extremely grateful for the thoughtful care and attention Jessica gave our pets and our home. I would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible sitter!

Jessica was awesome! She watched our corgi and cat for 5 days when we went away for our bachelorette/bachelor parties . She had great communication and took lots of pictures and videos. When we returned home she had vacuumed and made sure the house was in good condition. Thanks again, Jessica!
