“Karen and Steve did a great job caring for our quirky dog while we were away. Karen was quick to communicate on any challenges our dog was having and worked through them quickly and provided daily photo updates. We were able to relax on our time away knowing our our dog was in good hands and having a great time. I would highly recommend Karen and Steve to anyone.”
“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!”
“Lindsay did such a great job with our pug, Chloe. She sent photos, played with her, took her for long walks. When we picked Chloe up - she was perfectly calm and clearly felt comfortable and lived with Lindsay.”
About: While I am new to Rover, I have lots of experience dog and cat sitting for friends and family. My whole life there’s been a rotation of dogs in my home (my parents never bothered getting a dog because we watched our friends’ so often) and in recent years I frequently do house visits to feed and entertain pets. I have had a cat before who I loved wholeheartedly and I would love to take care of yours. Please consider me as a candidate to help your family. Thank you! I have a flexible work schedule, so I can dog walk almost any time of day. However, I am not home all the time if your pet needs 24 hour care. For overnight jobs, happy to take your pet to my house or stay at yours. House is not puppy proof but I would be happy to set up an area for them. I have no pets at home.
“Just an overall great experience as my dog stayed at her place overnight. Amybeth cares about the dog and the person trusting her with caring for them. I would recommend her to anyone for their dog needs. 5 stars.”
About: Caring, energetic, dog lover available to provide walks, general care and companionship either at owners home or at my place with a fenced-in yard. I have a flexible schedule when I’m in town but I travel once a month for a few days. I’m seeking arrangements that are aligned. I’d be happy to provide walks, drop in to the dog’s home to care for them or care for the dog for a half day or longer in my home. I have a fenced in yard.
“Brittany agreed to watch my dog super last minute and was SO sweet with him! She house sat for me and left it spotless. I wish she’d sent more photo updates, but overall a great experience! :)”
About: I've always loved animals, work for a veterinarian, have 2 dogs of my own (ages 13 and 16!). In addition to caring for the pets of friends and neighbors, I just genuinely love interacting with animals. I work part time for a veterinarian, so I'll have a lot of time to help out with your cats and dogs! In addition to basic needs, I plan to play snuggle and love on your pets. In and around your home, I will take your dogs for walks and playtime. For cats, I will make sure they are fed and not too lonely.
“Avital is amazing!!! She’s watched my dog Luna multiple times now and every time she sends picture updates which are always appreciated. One time my return flight was cancelled and I couldn’t get back to her until a day later and Avital was flexible and communicative the whole time. I would trust her with my dog any time.”
“My dog can be hard to handle in the wrong situations, but Emily put in care to make sure that those were avoided and it was easy to tell Lilah appreciated her stay. Hands on, caring, and in-town, I will definitely recommend Emily again.”
About: We have a passion for dogs. I myself have cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and health needs including medication, special diets, and have experience caring for injuries and elderly dogs. My partner and I both work full time with rotating schedules. Most days someone is home. On the few days where we are both working, the dogs are free to go in and out of the dog room to the fenced in area outside. I have a 2 year old lab/golden retriever who loves all other dogs, loves to play, and really enjoys having other dogs around. We have a dog room downstairs with an open door to a covered patio and fenced in grass area for the dogs to play, cool off, and use the bathroom at their own needs.
“Christine is awesome!!! I feel so lucky to have found her to take care of our two dogs for a week. She has a great setup for dogs and is so caring with them. Her communication is perfect - we received pictures and updates every day and she responded nearly immediately to messages. Highly recommend working with Christine - we certainly will in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and small animals for three years now. I also have experience with housesitting and babysitting. I work two 12 hour day shifts a week. I am currently working part time two 12 hour days. Dogs go out before I go to work and after. On my days off I am able to spend more time with them. I cannot offer pet sitting in my home at this time. I have three years of house/dog sitting experience as well as cats. I am able to stay at the clients place as needed for pet care.
“if you wrote the job description for the perfect Dog Sitter, it would be about Nicole. Her communication is great, she treats your dog as if it is her own and is super easy and convenient to get to her home.”

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 .
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 .
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.
