“The best of the best! So thankful for Felicia and the car she gave to my pup while we were out of town! Lots of updates, professional and thoughtful!! Can’t recommend enough!”

“Sarah was absolutely wonderful as an overnight sitter for my senior pup, Pozie. I could tell how comfortable and at ease Pozie was from the photos she sent, as well as Pozie’s disposition when I arrived back home! The communication and frequent updates and photos were so appreciated - as this was my first time leaving Pozie with someone she didn’t know well. I couldn’t recommend Sarah enough!”

“Craig and Chelsea were the most professional sitters we've worked with! They are extremely thorough and detail orientated and took great care of our two dogs!”

“Stephanie did a great job with Luca, and they bonded after a day or two. She sent me pictures of him while I was gone, and even washed all the linens she used. Will definitely be using her again!”

“We’re starting to think our dogs might like Jonas more than us 🤣. As always, our minds were at ease thanks to Jonas’ great care of our pups and frequent updates. We’re so lucky to have found you.”

“Super reliable and had lots of amazing pictures of our animals. House was just as we left it. Updated us one how the animals were doing. Would recommend to anyone and will hire again.”

“Avery takes such great care of my dog Bub and is a wonderful communicator and very reliable! Bub gets a bit nervous to be with a sitter, but always seems like he's had a very fun and relaxing time when I come home from a trip. Thanks so much for hanging with Bub, Avery!”

“Ryan did a great job with our 2 dogs! He’s kind, was punctual, and had great communication! We have a puppy and adult dog and he managed both wonderfully! We’ll happily have him stay with our dogs the next time we need someone! Absolutely recommend Ryan!”

“We could not ask for a better person to take care of our pups! Emily is so attentive to our dogs needs and takes amazing care of them and our home! We are extremely grateful for her!”


About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 15, I absolutely adore any animal of any type! I have much experience with Dogs, Cats and Rabbits and I would love to take care of your best friend whenever you need! Je suis aussi bilingue français/anglais! I am currently off for the summer! I am a double degree student so I spend the summers saving for University! I am typically available monday-friday! I have been house sitting and caring for all types of critters for about 10 years, I am deeply committed to your pets safety, happiness and enrichment during our time together!
“Many thanks to Toni for taking such excellent care of our pups! She was attentive to their needs and very careful with them, making sure to take into account their idiosyncracies! We felt very grateful that Toni spent the weekend with the "girls"! Thank you!”

“I highly recommend John! He asked questions to clarify my dogs needs, sent regular updates and even shared photos. His attentiveness allowed me to enjoy my few days out of town without worrying about my 2 senior dogs.”

“Lauren treated our baby and our home as if they were her own! I didn’t worry while I was away- she sent pictures and updates regularly and let me know that Comet was in good hands. I feel so happy to know that we have a truly caring and trustworthy sitter who we can trust to watch our girl again in future!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life. I have worked with all kinds of sizes, temperaments, and personalities. I currently volunteer with the ARLGP, and love the skills I learn every day from the dogs and other animals there. Whether your dog is the easiest to walk, or needs some special attention (and strength!), I am here to help! Your pets may come back with better manners than when they left :) I am a business owner, and am often home at my property in Topsham enjoying the sunshine or local trails with them. Despite my own travel, my schedule is incredibly open and flexible! We have a small portion of our yard that has a light fence, we usually just walk the dogs or take them to the nearby dog park. Our little guy is an ex-escape artist, so we are always double checking, paying attention, and increasing security on walks / outings! Safety is a huge priority!
About: I’ve always been around dogs and got my own dog 8 years ago. I have have always taken care of dogs in my neighborhood for long amount of time or for even just to feed or let out. I have a full time job Monday thru Thursday but I’m free on the weekends. I’m most likely will not be available for major holidays . I live in a new apartment building that has a small dog park. I usually take my dog on hikes or walks around the neighborhood.
“Rachael stayed with our 2 girls for a week at our house. They loved her & we loved that they were in such great hands! While we were gone, we received numerous updates and pictures each day. We returned to an immaculate house! Very professional, Highly recommended!”

Harpswell pet parents share their Rover experiences
Daniel took care of my PTSD-riddled dog, cat, and home while I went on vacation. He was gentle, intentional and so communicative, sending updates and photos throughout the week. He overcame my dog Moose’s fear of men with his gentle and healing nature, while graciously handling a leaking water faucet and dishwasher. I’ll definitely be using Daniel in the future and highly recommend him.
