“Elisabeth makes Louise feel so welcome and at home. Louise is so excited to get out of the car there and I am so at ease knowing she is so well cared for. Highly highly recommend Elisabeth!”
“I’m so happy we found Sergey at the last minute. My two dogs stayed with Sergey’s for six nights. They came home tired, happy, and clean. Sergey was extremely flexible with our timing when our travel was delayed. I would not hesitate to recommend Sergey as a pet sitter.”
“Kyle and Kaleigh have the perfect set up to watch our dog. We were completely comfortable leaving our pup with them and they were awesome about sending us pictures and communicating on how our dog was doing”
“This was our second time booking with Cassidy family, and once again we’re so grateful she was able to accommodate a last-minute request! It gave us real peace of mind knowing Lucky was in good hands. She sent photo updates throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. Her dog and children were both incredibly sweet and gentle with Lucky — it’s clear they’re a dog-loving household. We’re confident Lucky was well cared for and would happily book with her again!”
“Our pups spent the week being loved and pampered while we were away. Anne provided constant updates and gave us a great peace of mind while we were away! Excellent care!❤️”
“Christina was amazing with our granddogger, Roxie. Roxie is elderly and has special needs and Christina handled all of her needs with care and compassion. It's nice to know that we can go away and leave Roxie in good hands. I highly recommend Christina.”
“I have a very anxious dog and it’s been difficult to find a sitter who gets along with him but Marna has been a total lifesaver. She has been very professional, accommodating, and just delightful to work with, and I highly recommend her.”
“Kathleen and Dylan were great to work with and took wonderful care of our pug- taking her to the beach and on walks on the prom. She looked really happy in the daily photos - the updates were welcome. Their golden is super sweet. Big thanks to Kathleen and Dylan!”
“Lindsay was great! We were traveling to Portland from out of town and she was very clear and prompt with communication to arrange plans. The girls had a relaxing evening with Lindsay.”
“Karen & Steve couldn’t have been more pleasant. They were so thoughtful to send pictures and share Mai Tai and Juleps adventures in Scarborough. I’m so grateful to them for taking such good care of my dogs. They’re is no doubt that I would recommend and have them doggie sit again.”
“Emily is an excellent and caring cat sitter. She sent me daily photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. My cats were very well cared for, and I truly appreciated her kindness and reliability. I would be happy to ask Emily to care for my cats again in the future.”
“Amybeth was quick to accept the dates of services! She made me feel very comfortable leaving Lennox at her place. I received multiple texts about what was done (walks, feeds, playtime) and pictures/videos! I will for sure book with Amybeth again. It was pretty clear that Lennox loved having her as a friend!”
“Kyle and Mariah were fantastic caretakers for Lobo for the past week! Got photo updates multiple times per day, and it's clear that he had a TON of engagement and activity - he put himself to bed when we got home 😂. Highly recommend!!”
“Celine is great. Wonderful indoor space with playing area just next door. Adventure walks everyday and lots of updates and pictures. And all the attention Zahra could have hoped for. Thanks!”
“Tiffany and her family took such wonderful care of Benny while we were on vacation! It was clear that he received plenty of attention, affection, and love during his stay. Knowing he was safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip without worrying. We would absolutely trust Tiffany with Benny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and caring pet sitter!”
“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.”
“Jaclyn is awesome! We were visiting Maine for a few days and found a sitter close to where we were staying. It was nice to have peace of mind that our dog, Milo, was being well taken care of and having just as much fun on vacation as us. Highly recommend!! I will definitely be checking if Jaclyn is available next year when we return to Maine.”
“We were thrilled with the care of Angel while we were away. She can be skittish with new people, yet she fell right in with this wonderful family. I loved the photos and updates we got everyday and the flexibility when our plans changed slightly. Our only worry was that Angel wouldn’t miss us!!! I highly recommend and would utilize their services again.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Higgins Beach
Anne was very accommodating to last minute adjustments in my schedule when I needed to drop off and pick up my dog, Bee. She was prompt in updating me on how Bee was settling in and getting along with her dog. Anne provided a comfortable place for Bee to spend a couple of days - I’d definitely rebook with her in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Higgins Beach home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Higgins Beach.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Higgins Beach sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
