“Thomas took wonderful care of my fur family while I was out of state for three days. He provided regular updates and was considerate of their routine. I felt very at easy with them in his care and will rebook in the future!”
“Ellianna was great to work with. Good communication throughout her stay. House was clean, and I could tell the animals were well cared for. Would definitely recommend.”
“Sophie watched my dog for 4 days while I was on a trip. She's also walked her a number of times for me. No complaints. She did a great job. My dog who is normally very skittish warmed up to her very quickly. And she was happy and healthy on my return.”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and absolutely love getting to know each pup and their individual personality! 🐾 My experience includes everything from drop-in visits and walks to overnight stays and pet sitting for weeks at a time. I’ve cared for dogs of all different ages, sizes, breeds, and needs, so I’m comfortable adjusting my care and routine to what works best for each dog. I also have two pups of my own, so I completely understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets while you’re away. I treat every dog I care for like one of my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, love, exercise, and companionship while their family is gone! 🤍 I also have a small dog, Tulsa, who you may see in some of my photos! I love bringing her along when appropriate and when families are comfortable with it, but she will always stay home unless we’ve discussed it beforehand. I’m currently a graduate student with classes primarily in the evenings Monday–Thursday, which leaves me flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet care! My schedule can vary some from week to week due to clinicals, but I keep my availability updated and am happy to coordinate around your pet’s usual routine. 🐾 I always treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own! I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any special instructions. I prioritize safety, lots of attention, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and pictures for some extra peace of mind!

“Jazlynne took SUCH good care of our pets! She was even willing to take on a semi-potty trained young puppy, and all of our pets ADORED her! Left our home spotless, took care of all of the animals needs, and even was willing to take on an extra day last minute when our plane home got delayed. Absolutely plan on using her services again!”

My dog inspired me to start this journey because she was my best friend and she sadly passed away of old age, I would love to be your trusted care taker and keep your pets the safest with me. You don’t have to think about it- your animal will be in the bestest of hands! I’m currently working part time over the summer, I am around the dates I have available.

“Jessica was an exceptional caregiver for my 14 year old Cavalier. She was diligent in giving medicine and made sure he was comfortable at all times. She stayed in my home for a week and kept it spotless. Jessica sent pictures, updates and videos daily, which was greatly appreciated. My dog loved her. I definitely recommend her and hope to have her stay with my dog again.”
About: I have 15 years personal experience with large, high energy dogs. I have cared for puppies, and elderly dogs and cats, and toy size dogs. I work 12-4 M-F and can make mid day visits for potty breaks depending on distance from me. Outside of that, my schedule is open for anything your pet needs. I can care for your pet in whatever way you need and with whatever your home is equipped with. I am okay with leashed potty breaks, changing floor pads, or anything in between.

The average cost for House Sitting in Kenduskeag on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Kenduskeag walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Kenduskeag maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Kenduskeag choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
