“Christine is a new favorite dogsitter! I left one of my dogs with her and her canine crew for five days—she came home happy, healthy, and tired after romping around the big fenced yard, dipping in the pool, and snoozing on the couch. Worry-free dogsitting from a true dog lover. Thanks, Christine!”
“Stefany was amazing. She accepted my last minute request and responded to all my messages very quickly. She gave me lots of updates and bonded immediately with my dog, even though he can be picky about people sometimes. Would recommend for anyone who needs a dog sitter in Maine!”
“Ziggy was well cared for and came back happy after another great stay with Kyle and Kaleigh. There were highly responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up times, etc. highly recommend!”
“Mariah, Kyle and family took good care of our 10 yr. old Portuguese Water Dog during our week long family vacation. They treated him like he was part of the family and he enjoyed being around their dog and another one they were also boarding. Having a fenced in yard was perfect for playing and getting exercise. They were easy to communicate with and wonderful about giving regular updates and sending photos.”
“Trisha is very kind and flexible, and I felt very reassured to leave my somewhat nervous little dog with her for her first time away from family members. She is communicative with pictures and prompt responses. Best of all, I felt like she appreciated my furry friend!”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely love caring for them. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel happy and secure. From energetic puppies to independent cats and senior pets needing extra attention, I treat every animal like family and make their well-being my top priority. 🐾❤️ Hey there) I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to care of your pets.

“Emily, Kieran, and their lovely dog Leon are absolutely amazing. They took fantastic care of my pup Sally and made her feel like she was part of the family. They’re communicative, thoughtful, and absolutely rockstar sitters. Thank you!”
“Kym and Robert have taken care of our dog, Rosie, multiple times over the last couple of years. They are reliable, caring, and keep us updated with photos and messages while we are away. Rosie is always happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we return home. It gives us real peace of mind knowing Rosie is in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Kym and Robert to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
About: Hi! We’re Natalie and Tim, and we have both had dogs our entire lives. Natalie worked at a Humane Society in college, and Tim fostered dogs (and was a “failed foster” parent) for many years before we moved to Maine with our two doggies, Penny & Willa. We spend lots of time taking our dogs and dogs who we sit for to local nature trails in Cumberland or enjoying fetch with the Chuck-It in our large backyard. Our home is kid-free, and we will treat your pups like our own! Tim works from home, and Natalie is a full-time graduate student with a flexible schedule. Your dogs will be home with either or both of us for the majority, if not the entire time! We have a large yard (1.5 acres) on a quiet street in a very dog-friendly neighborhood. Although our yard is not physically fenced, we do have an electric fence that could work for your dog if they are trained on this at your home! We are happy to crate your dogs - we’re even happy to have them in our bedroom and on the couch if they prefer!
“Jessica was awesome with my pups! It was last minute and a puppy 4 months old with lots of energy. When I pulled in to pick them up and they were out playing with the kids I knew I made the right choice. She made me feel as though I could enjoy my weekend away and that the dogs would be fine. This was my first time using a sitter and couldn't have asked for better!”
“Hank and his mom Rachel were such a blast for our dog Bode to stay with. He had a great week of playtime, couch time, and what looked like hours of dog parkour. We will absolutely be sending Bode back.”
“Carmen did an amazing job with Jerry’s overnight stay. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day. She also ensured that he had a potty break right before pick up! I am super grateful for her help with Jerry and helping my shy pup feel comfortable being away from home. I know Jerry is safe in her care. Thank you again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gorham
Christina was simply amazing! I needed boarding on an emergency basis and she was able to fit me into her schedule with prompt and thorough communication. My dog Lupo usually takes a bit to warm up to strangers and can be reactive when afraid; someone who is overly gushy and touchy-feely immediately upon meeting would be Lupo's idea of a nightmare. Christina listened to my suggestions and respected Lupo's space as I let her out of the car. But Lupo decided immediately that Christina was not just a friend, but a BEST friend. Lupo literally ran up and hugged Christina within minutes of meeting her. This is not typical Lupo behavior so I knew Lupo was in good hands. Christina kept me posted with pictures and updates, and I could tell Lupo was comfortable and relaxed and most importantly HAPPY. I would not hesitate to book again with Christina. She is a gem!
We had an amazing experience with Kelly! She took the time to host a meet and greet with our dog to make sure she was comfortable with her and in her home. Kelly was fantastic about giving us updates and was so great with our dog, who can certainly be a diva at times! We can’t thank Kelly enough and would recommend her to anyone!

There are 314 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Gorham. About 94% of Gorham sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 pet, 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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ME ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
