“This review is a little late but Cinta had the best time at Jeanne's! Lots of outdoor time and Jeanne is a great communicator. Thank you for taking such good care of her!”
“Our pup had a wonderful time with Janice, and with great communication throughout the stay we had peace of mind she was well cared for. Would definitely recommend and look forward to our next booking!”
“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!”
“Awesome family! After a weekend at Austin and Frank’s house my chocolate lab came home and crashed on the kitchen floor exhausted. That’s pretty tough to do! He was very well cared for (maybe better than at home!) and I didn’t have a worry about him while we were away.”
“We could not ask for a better dog sitter for our good boy! Elisabeth is truly a little dog whisperer—so caring, patient, and incredibly attentive to every detail. From the moment I met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs and understands their individual personalities and needs. She keeps us updated with lots of adorable photos and makes sure our dog felt completely at home, relaxed, and loved. The fun adventures she took them on made it feel like a real doggy vacation, not just a stay. Our dog comes home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It gives us total peace of mind to know our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We will 100% continue to book with Elisabeth again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter! 🐾💛”
“Michelle was absolutely amazing with our pup. She sent a lot of picture and text updates and our dog looked so happy in all of them. We felt so good knowing our dog was being treated so well while we were gone. We will 100% use Michelle in the future.”
“Laney took such wonderful care of our dog while we were on vacation. We were nervous having never left him for a full week before. Laney kept us up to date on how Silas was adjusting and sent us frequent photos and updates (which we had asked for). Thank you!”
“Emily and Kieran took such good care of our Wendy girl and their dog is a total sweetie. We got multiple pupdates of various adventures and nap times multiple times a day. It was clear she was well cared for which was a huge relief as we just moved to the area! Could not recommend them more!”
“Anne is the best! This is our second time booking here and she's so warm and flexible and truly loves dogs. Knowing my boy was in such good hands made my vacation actually relaxing. She sent pics and videos through out. I can't recommend enthusiastically enough.”
“Chelsea was fantastic! She was very responsive and I felt so comfortable sending our pup to Chelsea for 3 nights. She sent updates and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. We will be back soon!”
“Michelle did an excellent job. She kept me up to date with photos and messages for the 10+ days she was taking care of my dog. I felt totally at ease leaving my dog with her. Would definitely use her again!”
About: I grew up around all sorts of animals. We always had a dog and a cat or two. We also had birds and a bunny and also a hamster. I love walking and playing with dogs and I get along with all different breeds and sizes. I don’t currently have a full time job so I’m available pretty much anytime. I’m available for boarding and visits during the week and weekends. I have a good sized unfenced yard with a half an acre of woods in the back. I also have a dog of my own who loves other dogs and would love a playmate. I can crate your dog if needed.
“Veska is wonderful! My dog Bennie stayed with Veska for a week and she took great care of him. Veska is gentle and kind, and Bennie loves her. She and her husband and son made Bennie part of the family, and even let him sleep in their bed, which is what he is used to at home. Veska followed directions I had left regarding feeding, walks, etc. She also went above and beyond by brushing him and even gave him a bath. He looked better when I picked him up than when I had dropped him off. I highly recommend Veska for safe loving dog care.”
“We felt very fortunate that Amybeth was available to watch Maizy for the first time when we were traveling to see family in CT for a weekend in December. She read Maizy’s profile, asked questions and offered a meet and greet. When we arrived, it was obvious how much of a dog person Amybeth is!! She told Maizy she could explore her home and go anywhere. Maizy went in the living room then upstairs then back down and back up. LOL Seeing our shy Maizy feeling so comfortable and taking a treat from Amybeth totally set us at ease. Daily updates kept me relaxed, knowing Maizy was having fun, too! We highly recommend Amybeth and look forward to booking with her in the future!’”
“Ansley took excellent care of our two boys during the longest time we’ve ever spent away from them! We were very anxious to leave them for so long but she provided updates and her and her husband gave them lots of love and cuddles while we were away. Thank you for the peace of mind, Ansley!”
“Tara and Phil were absolutely perfect! They treated our baby exactly like she was one of the family. They took her out for fun adventures and sent us multiple picture/video updates daily. They even bought her her own veil to wear when her pawrents got married. I cannot say enough positive things about them. We were so relieved to have such amazing people care for our baby while we were away getting married! I would HIGHLY recommend them! ❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Kennebunk
Clayton took amazing care of my pup, Sadie! She was so anxious at dropoff but he sent me pictures throughout her time there and she seemed comfortable and well cared-for. Something I really appreciated was how mindful he was about introducing Sadie to his dog, and everything went very well. I’ll definitely book with Clayton again if I’m ever in need while visiting the area! Thanks so much, Clayton!
Kellie was wonderful. She and Joe were our first non-family overnight care givers for Petey. Let me just say WONDERFUL ! Excellent communication, pictures and reassuring texts. We won’t hesitate to arrange a sleepover when needed and you shouldn’t either. Thank you Kellie and Joe.

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.

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Kennebunk can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Kennebunk home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Kennebunk.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Kennebunk. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Kennebunk 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
