““Lyndsay was great! She was responsive, sent a ton of photos of our babies, and kept us updated throughout our trip. We don’t have the easiest five-animal household, but Lyndsay handled everything with ease. She also did a wonderful job administering medication to one of our 5-month-old kitten, which gave us extra peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her!””
About: I’ve lived with and cared for dogs for over five years, including my own pup for the past two. I’ve helped family and friends with dog sitting, walking, feeding, and basic care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m patient, calm, and attentive—always making sure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or keeping up with routines, I treat every dog as if they’re my own. I currently have Friday and Saturday off from my regular job, which makes my schedule very flexible for pet care. I’m happy to help with walks or drop-in visits on those days, and can often accommodate other times as well with advance notice. I always make sure your pets get the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. I specialize in drop-in visits for dogs and cats, as well as dog walking, and I take pride in providing attentive, reliable care. I’m very detail-oriented when it comes to pet safety, comfort, and following each pet’s routine. During drop-in visits, I make sure fresh water is always available, meals are served according to your instructions, medications are administered correctly when needed, and your home is secure so your pets remain safe and comfortable. On dog walks, I stay alert at all times to prevent dogs from picking up or eating anything off the ground, and I’m especially attentive to curious puppies and easily distracted dogs. I also pay close attention to our surroundings to ensure every walk is both safe and enjoyable. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care and give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is in good hands every time I visit.
“Christina is amazing. She went above and beyond in caring for Yoshi and I could tell he was so happy when I returned home. She is a great communicator and loves animals and it really shows. Look forward to working with her anytime!”
“I’m so happy that Stacey was there to check-in on my cat over a holiday weekend. She responded right away to my initial inquiry and had great communication while I was away. It was such a comfort to know she was taking good care of my pet - will be using her services again, and highly recommend Stacey to anyone!”
“My kitties are usually very anxious, but Melissa took such good care of them that they didn't have a single "accident," they're happy, full, and most importantly, they are social and comfortable around her. I will be asking Melissa to visit them in the future, if her schedule allows. Thia is one of the most stress-free out of state trips I had, all thanks to her.”
“This is the second time Rose has taken care of our pets and she has done an excellent job both times. We appreciate her thoroughness and reliability. Great communication. We will definitely utilize her services again in the future!”
About: I've been caring for my personal cat since 2018, although I grew up with cats and a dog in the house and had close relationships with them. I have a Bachelor's in Animal Behavior from the University of New England (UNE). I worked at a doggy day care for a year and since the beginning of 2025 have been walking dogs and providing other pet care services for clients. Pet care is the focus of my weekly routine. I'm available from 10am-5pm Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and 10am-4pm Fridays, for walks, and can be available for check in visits or housesitting any time of the week. I go above and beyond to try to make sure your pet enjoys their time with me, while also following all rules and instructions you might leave me. I provide a summary of each visit as well as at least one photo, to make sure you know exactly what's going on with your pet.
“Sara is wonderful, her attention to detail, thoughtful communication is one of my favorite qualities. Tatertot was well taken care of on her drop in visits. We will rebook, when she has availability. Your pets are in good hands! I highly recommend”
“Sara was wonderful and super communicative! Our pets really liked her (and we trust their judgment the most). Both our dog and cat seemed comfortable with her! We will be booking again for sure:)”
“Kara was amazing with my pups for a last min drop in! Super accommodating, did everything asked and more. My pups were tired and happy, will definitely be booking her again!”

“Nishat aka The Cat Whisperer was incredible!! She took wonderful care of our cats and home while we were gone for 10 days. She sent pictures and updates which was fantastic. Hands down the best sitter we’ve ever had!”
“Nikki was wonderful! She took excellent care of Pancake and sent me updates and photos of her every single day. I knew she was in excellent hands and that helped me to relax even more on my vacation!

About: If begging my parents for a dog since birth counts, I’ve been a dog lover for 50+ years. In terms of actual pet ownership, I’ve owned and loved my cats and dogs for the past 25+ years. In addition to having my own fur family, I’ve also happily sat or walked my friends and families. I’m heading into retirement and will have oodles of time to keep your pets company while you’re at work or taking a fabulous vacation. I’m available for house sitting at any time. And currently available for dog walking Friday though Monday. In a few months, my dog walking schedule will free up to 3-4 days during the week. Having raised animals and kids, I know routines help everyone feel confident and safe. I respect whatever you know your animals need. As an example, if you need me to take them on long walks, cuddle on the couch, or bring them for a fetch and swim in the lake, I got you covered.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Gorham
Lyndsay was great! This was our first time trusting someone who isn’t family to care for our cat Jose. We were a little nervous, and after the first drop in visit we completely relaxed. Jose is shy, but sweet and was comfortable with her immediately. Lyndsay sent photos and a report at each visit, she’s very fast to respond to messages. It couldn’t have gone smoother When we need a sitter again we will be reaching out to book Lyndsay.

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Gorham on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
