“Kristen was the best dog sitter we’ve had! She went above and beyond to care for our sweet boy and watch over our house too. We were able to enjoy our time away and know that he was well cared for. We greatly appreciated it. Will definitely book again!”
“As soon as we met Madison we felt so comfortable. She was so kind and loving to our dear dog Angel and was flexible with our unique scheduling needs. I loved the photo updates and reports. I could tell that Angel was happy and well cared for while we were away. We are so grateful for Madison!”
“James was amazing! He went above and beyond and his son taught us a new trick, that we have been working on with our pup! Would absolutely have James watch our pup in the future!”
About: Hi there — I’m a dedicated, experienced pet sitter with 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach when it comes to our pets—every dog has their own routines, quirks, comfort levels, and needs, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes your pup feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful, shy and cautious, older and in need of a slower pace, or has specific behavioral or medical needs, communication is everything. Please share any concerns, routines, triggers, fears, or special requests ahead of time—we’ll work together to make their stay as stress-free and personalized as possible. My home offers a large yard for supervised outdoor time, plenty of love, structure, and attention. I’m also a mom to two amazing kids (ages 5 and 7) who have been raised around animals and are very respectful of pet boundaries, body language, and personal space. For overnight stays, I do recommend bringing your dog’s crate if they’re crate-trained or may need a familiar, secure space for bedtime or decompression. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for—while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving, experienced hands. I’d love to meet your pup! 🐾 I can do overnights Wednesday Thursday and Fridays! Just reach out to me, schedule updated weekly for other services - overnights stay the same. Thanks! Your pet - your rules! I can play, snuggle, walk, feed, bathe your pet. I can crate your pet if requested. What you say goes!
About: I have spent lots of time with elderly dogs and cats, and I love ensuring they have the consistent care they need while their humans are away. I have also worked with young pets who are house or litter box training. I also love fish, rodents, and reptiles! If you have a zoo at home, I may be the sitter for you. -Gwen (they/them) I currently nanny a small human part time, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule. Week days I am available before 10:30am and after 3:00pm. Weekends I am free all day. Overnights are always available. I deeply value the trust it takes to have someone in your home taking care of your beloved furry friends. I strive to provide care that keeps pets happy, safe, and satisfied while maintaining a calm and clean environment in the home I am visiting.
About: I love dogs and they seem to love me! I do not have my own dog currently but like to think of all those I watch as my own. I love to get them (and me) out for a walk especially on a beach or nearby trail. I also have a lot of experience caring for senior dogs and can match that energy level as well! If you need references I will be happy to provide them from Wallis, Teddie, Stella, Franklin, Buna, Wally, Tater, Judy, Kaya or Koda. I work from home so would not be away from your dog for more than an hour or two. If your dog likes the car, they can join me on errands/adventures. Or we can stay close to home for walks or snuggles. I care for dogs in their own home to keep them in familiar settings and routines. Important to know if they can be let outside in yard off leash or not, feeding times, what time is typical for wake up.
About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life. Experience ranges from puppies to elderly dogs. I have raised three dogs on my own and on a weekly basis I go to the humane shelter to walk dogs. My schedule is super flexible- I'm willing to help in any way I can! I am a recent college graduate from Belmont University. Nashville is now by home as I pursue music. Therefore, I will have plenty of time to make sure your furry family member is happy and comfortable! I'm willing to come to you or have your pup stay with me. Dogs are special to me, so I will do my very best to treat them with the same compassion and love that we give to humans.
“Tara watched our rambunctious dog Wes for four nights at our home and we couldn’t be happier with the care she gave him. She bonded instantly with him (which says quite a lot actually for our dog), was in touch every day with updates, and improvised on food when some of his food ran out. TRa also discovered a broken nail and was prepared to take time off from work to take Wes to the vet, although we elected to wait and see. She was professional and caring, everything you could ask for in a pet sitter. I would recommend her again in a heartbeat!”
“Tati watched our two golden retrievers at our house for two whole days and one overnight. We're so happy and impressed with the care that Tati gave to our two dogs. She was very detailed and even came to meet the dogs a couple of days before to learn about their routine. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a dog or house sitter!”
“Faith is someone we will absolutely use again. She took care of our older pup and kept us updated every step of the way. If you need someone to watch your pet, she is the one to book!”
About: I've had cats and dogs (and other small furry critters) since I was in HS. I love caring for animals. It has always been a joy to care for my own or others. For this last Thanksgiving we had a Foster puppy here as well as our neighbors dog and it was a lot of fun. Everyone, had fun, even the cats. The more I sit for animals on Rover, the more I love it. ~ WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ~ We will review anything you'd like before you leave, and will do our best to accommodate. ~HOUSESITTING The housesitting rate covers you for 24 hours. I would be coming to your home to watch over it and care for your pet(s) most hours of the day + overnight. I can also water your plants, check your mail, receive packages etc. - One to three walks/day and/or a few potty breaks in the yard for dogs - Clean cat litter box - Feed + water them - Play + cuddle with them - Pic or video updates -Meet and Greets Before any house sitting, we love to have a meet and greet to make sure we are a good fit. Let’s set something up if you’re interested! ~DROP-IN VISITS I will be dropping by for 30-60 minutes to check in on your pet(s): - Let dogs out for a potty break - Clean cat litter box - Feed + water them - Play + cuddle with them - Pic or video updates ~DOG WALKING I would be coming to your house to take your dog(s) for a 30 - 60-minute walk in your neighborhood. We have a wonderful fenced in backyard. Currently we have 1 cat (who hides a lot). We have puppy gates/ex-pens as well as doors we can close if we want to keep the dogs with us. We also have 2 large crates, if pets prefer them. We would honor your wishes, ie: potty break hours, coats in cold weather, how long (if at all) they can be left alone...
“Tara was amazing! One of our boys is super reactive, especially with new people coming into the house, so leaving him is always nerve wracking. Within hours Steve and Tara were best friends ❤️ She kept us updated, sent tons of pics and gave our needy boys all the love and attention they need. Tara eased my mind and allowed me to fully enjoy our vacation knowing they were in great hands. We will be using her again!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born and have helped care for them all my life as well as helping friends who also with their personal pets and rover pets as well. I usually wake up early and will be able to get them out in the morning before class then also later after classes as well. Service would be the same multiple walks a day along with playing in the house and sticking to the feeding schedule given by the owners.
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I bring a lifetime of hands on experience to every pet I care for. I grew up with cats, have cared for a diabetic dog who required daily medication and consistent monitoring, and currently share my home with an energetic 80 lb dog. These experiences have taught me that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or requires extra attention, I’ll provide patient, dependable care tailored to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As the owner of an 80 lb dog, I’m already committed to daily walks, playtime, feeding, and providing plenty of love and attention. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to reliably care for clients’ pets, whether they need drop-in visits, walks, or overnight care. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of affection while respecting any special instructions or medical needs. I also make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them patience, attention, and companionship. My goal is to provide reliable, loving care so both pets and their owners can feel at ease while they’re apart.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nancy! She took such exceptional care of my sweet Piper while I traveled. She was incredibly attentive, sent frequent updates and photos, and most importantly, loved Piper as if she were her own. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Piper was not just being cared for, but genuinely loved. Piper thrives in a quiet, one-on-one environment without other pets, and Nancy’s home and companionship could not have been a more perfect fit. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I am beyond grateful to Nancy for giving Piper so much love and attention, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly special to care for their pup. ❤️”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cape Neddick
From our initial meet and greet it’s apparent that Kristen adores dogs of all kinds. Lily was swooned by her warm loving presence and I felt assured she’d be well taken care of. She’s patient, caring and goes above and beyond to care for Lily. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced dog handler and sitter. Thank you so very much Kristen.
Carys did a fantastic job sitting our cat for 10 days! She has an intuitive way of communicating with animals that came across during our first meeting and reassured us that he was in safe hands. She also left our house spotless and clean which was a lovely touch after a long journey home. Couldn't recommend her enough!!!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Cape Neddick walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Cape Neddick maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Cape Neddick choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
