“Kristyn was amazing! This was our first time and I am already going to rebook. She was very attentive to our dogs, always on time for drop ins and took several pictures! We did not have to worry about our dogs at all! Would recommend!”
“Absolutely Amazing Dog Sitter! I cannot say enough wonderful things about my dog sitter! She went above and beyond in every possible way while I was out of the country. Since our original walk-through, my entire setup had changed, and I completely forgot to update her on several important details—including the special food that one of my dogs requires. Not only did she handle everything with grace and professionalism, but she also took the initiative to find the best solution for my dogs. She even went out of her way to purchase high-quality meat to mix with their food to make sure they were well taken care of. That level of care and attention meant the world to me. She kept me updated with plenty of pictures and communicated exceptionally well throughout the entire stay, giving me complete peace of mind while I was traveling. Because of her, I was able to enjoy my trip knowing my babies were in the best hands possible. I will absolutely be booking with her again, and I already plan to use her services in the next couple of months. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares for your pets as if they were her own, don’t hesitate to book her. My only warning? Don’t book her on the same days I need her—she’s that good! 😊 Thank you again for taking such amazing care of my fur babies. You are truly the best!”
“If you are looking for an exceptional, trustworthy, and caring dog sitter, look no further. Christine provides outstanding service. She maintained clear, consistent communication and went above and beyond to ensure my dog received the highest level of care while we were away. We will undoubtedly be relying on her services again in the future.”
About: I've spent the past 8 years caring for my own Belgian Malinois/Dutch Shepherd dog, Atlas, so I'm very familiar with dogs that have lots of energy and need plenty of exercise and attention! I've also helped care for friends' dogs over the years, including walking a friend's dog four days a week for several months. My experience with dog sitting actually goes back to my teenage years! I've always loved dogs and really enjoy getting to know their different personalities. Whether it's going for a walk, playing, or just spending time together, I want to make sure every dog feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your dog and become someone you can count on, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands while you're away! I recently went back to school and am in the middle of a career transition, which has given me some extra flexibility in my schedule that I’d love to use for dog walking and help with drop-by visits. I'm happy to coordinate times that work best for you and your dog! When caring for pets in someone else's home, I'm always mindful and respectful of my surroundings. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pet and your home, so I make it a priority to follow any instructions or routines. I also do my best to keep your pet's living areas clean, safe, and comfortable, and will always treat your home with the same care and consideration I would my own!
About: My father owned a pet care business in New Jersey but now that I've moved to North Carolina I'm ready to continue doing what I love by myself. I plan on making this my full time job, I currently work remote so I am free any time of the day any day of the week 😁. My care is fully respectful of my clients wishes, pets will never be over or under fed, they will have plenty of exercise and play time and the house will always be clean when I'm done.
About: I love animals and I'm eager to help you care for your pets! I have over a decade of pet care experience with caring for my own as well as helping others! My first job was training a puppy and I've been able to help train more dogs since then! Dogs are where I'm most experienced but I've recently began caring for other animals as well! I'm a flexible and reliable sitter so I'm available for whatever you and your pets need! I'll keep you updated throughout my visit with pictures and messages of your babies! I'll keep your pets safe and happy with plenty of playtime and attention! I'll keep them safe on their walks and by making sure their area stays clean and free of household hazards. As a pet owner, I've learned to be responsible so I can provide a safe environment for my pets!
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, parakeets, and fish most of my life. Dogs I care for were puppies-senior care and kittens-senior care I'm available 7 days a week-morning, afternoon, and evening. I'm currently working part-time and have some extra free time to care for your pet when you're in need. 0 I have a dog park within walking distance from my home. I live in a house and also have my own yard to take your pet outside when necessary.
About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was 12 years old. I have three currently of my own, all Shih Tzus. I have dog sat for neighbors as well. One of my dogs had kidney disease that required medication twice daily, weekly vet visits and prescription food. I am well versed in caring for sick and senior dogs as well. I am available after 5pm Monday-Thursday, after 2pm Fridays and all day on Saturday and Sundays. I can also create time if needed, on a case by case basis. I am careful to follow any rules or guides put into place. I am happy to have your dog hangout with me or crate them if that’s what you prefer.
“Second time booking him for drop in visits to watch my cat. So glad he was available to come stop by so Kevin wouldn’t get lonely all by himself while I was in Florida. After the first visit I asked to add a few more days and he easily added them for me! Thanks again and I hope everyone leaves him great tips because he deserves it! :)”
About: I have been a dog lover since childhood, and my passion for animals continues to grow. I have a high-energy dog named Pepper, who is a 9-year-old Double Doodle. As she has gotten older, I have gained experience in taking care of her, including washing, playing, feeding, and walking her. I have also done pet-sitting for some family friends from time to time. I will do my best to meet all the needs of your furry friend so they can thrive! Morning until late afternoon is the best time for me to care for your furry friend. I am often busy after those times due to school and home responsibilities. However, there will be times when later hours work for me. I will mark it all on my calendar so you will be in the know! In your home, I will treat your pet with the utmost care while also respecting the rules of your household. Listening and being attentive to a pet are two of the most important things to petsitting. I will share updates and photos via messages to keep you in the know about how your precious dog is doing!
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have always been responsible for walking, feeding, bathing, etc. I have also watched dogs here and there and absolutely enjoy it. I’d love to be a safe and trustworthy option to take care of your baby! I am employed full time but my hours switch from morning and night so as long as I have a days heads up, I can let you know asap whether I’ll be able to or not. I have two dogs at home that are very sweet, but I have a senior dog who can get a little grumpy- I don’t think having another dog in the house would be a good option if it was overnight.
“Loren was an amazing pet sitter. She was incredibly communicative, loving, and caring with my dogs. Always punctual, attentive, and truly impossible to improve on. She was consistently willing to help, very service-oriented, and made us feel completely at ease. I highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her again with my pets.”
About: I’ve been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. I have extensive experience working with dogs of various breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. Providing safe, reliable, and attentive care is something I take seriously, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I am currently a full-time student, which allows me to spend lots of time at home. Your pet will receive plenty of attention and will not be left unattended for extended periods. Our home has a fenced yard and is located in a safe, walkable neighborhood with plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. Pets are treated like family here and are welcome throughout the home.

Sydnee was an Excellent drop in sitter for my dog. My dog loved her. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in Sydnee's care. She was very attentive to Kai's walking style and behavior; she fed Kai his meals per instructions, and she spent quality time with our dog. I would definitely request Sydnee for our dog's care now and in the future.
It is so wonderful to see how happy our sweet Cleo has been while we were away. Christine sent tons of pics daily, while she and Cleo were playing with her toys and out and about in the house instead of staying hidden away. Litter box done and home just like we left it. Delivery was even brought inside with mail. Such an attentive sitter. We will definitely call Christine again for out drop ins and pet sitti g needs.
Holly is fantastic! She took such great care of my dog, Atlas, while doing a drop-in visit with him. She gave me really thorough feedback as to how he was doing and how their walk went. She is so kind and Atlas absolutely loves her! We can't wait to have her check in on him again soon! :)
We had a wonderful experience! They stopped by to care for our pets during dinner, took Rodger on a nice walk, and gave our kitties plenty of love and snuggles. It was clear they genuinely cared about our animals and made sure everyone was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Knowing our pets were in such caring hands gave us so much peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend them and will definitely be booking with them again!
Jennifer was amazing and such a huge help for us during a really unpredictable time while we were waiting for the arrival of our son. She was kind enough to stay on standby for drop-in visits with our dog, and the day we got admitted to the hospital she was incredibly easy to get ahold of, accommodating, and flexible. She sent us tons of updates and pictures which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was very clear our dog felt comfortable and happy with her, and that meant everything to us. We’re so grateful for her help and will absolutely be using her again in the future!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! we loved working with erica! we will be using her for every pet sitting need. she went above and beyond for us this holiday and we are so grateful. she sent so many pictures daily of my babies and updated me on how they were doing. she gave great detail every check in on what they were doing and how they played etc. she truly loved on my babies and it made me feel so much better knowing they were getting all the loves while i was away from them!
This is the first time I’ve booked pet sitting for my girls and I’m so lucky to have found Olivia. She went above and beyond! I appreciated her offer to come over ahead of booking so we could discuss Rory and Sookie’s care, and meeting her put me instantly at ease knowing my girls were gonna be in kind and responsible hands. On the day-of, Olivia kept me up to date of her arrival time, sent pictures of my girls, and provided a comprehensive recap of the visit. My sweet but skittish Rory even felt comfortable enough to sneak out of her hiding place to grab a few bites of food while Olivia was still around! Thank you so much, Olivia! ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Kennebec is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 4,957 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kennebec. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kennebec. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
