“My dog means the world to me, and I struggle with taking any trips without her. The only thing that gets me on an airplane is knowing that Lauren is watching my dog with all the gentleness, responsibility, and skill in the world. Lauren follows my instructions to the letter and is communicative and informative. During one trip, my dog had a health emergency, and Lauren did everything I would have done and went above and beyond to get immediate care and keep me fully informed. My dog adores Lauren and is always thrilled to see her. I can't recommend Lauren highly enough, even though I'd love to gatekeep her for my dog only!”
“Becca did an amazing job taking care of our 2 kitties! She sent thorough updates and pictures so we knew how things were going. She was very easy to communicate with and always responded quickly. One of our cats is on medication, and she was able to administer her pill and provide detailed updates so we didn’t have to worry about our cat’s chronic health issues. She went above and beyond taking care of the house, even taking out the trash for us when it got full. She was very detail oriented and we knew the cats were in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“Lauren was fantastic! She sent me detailed notes on her visit with Carter and some cute pictures to ease my mind. I can go about my day now knowing he was fully taken care of and safe. What a heaven send she is!! Will definitely use her again and again!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs through both short-term walks and long-term stays. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, exercise routines, administering lots of attention and playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I treat every dog like my own and always aim to provide dependable, loving care. As a teacher, my schedule is a bit busier until the school year comes to an end, but I always communicate clearly and make sure pets receive dependable, loving care. My schedule will open up this summer. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animal, and I promise to provide attentive, responsible, and loving care at all times. Whether on walks or during overnight stays, I will make sure your pet is safe, supervised, and treated like family.
About: What makes our home different is simple: your dog won’t be one of many. We only care for one family’s dog at a time, so your dog receives our full attention without having to adjust to a house full of unfamiliar dogs. We also have no resident pets and no children, creating a peaceful, predictable environment that can be especially comforting for older dogs, anxious dogs, or dogs who simply prefer a quieter home. I work from home, which means your dog won’t spend long stretches of the day alone. They’ll have companionship, supervision, affection, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of time to settle in and feel comfortable. My husband and I have cared for our own dogs through every stage of life, including the senior years and vision loss. That experience taught us how important patience, routine, reassurance, and individualized care can be. We understand that some dogs need a little more time, a slower pace, medication, extra help navigating their surroundings, or simply someone nearby who makes them feel secure. After losing our two beloved dogs, we’re not quite ready to bring another dog into our family, but we deeply miss having dogs in our lives. When a dog stays with us, they truly become part of our home while they’re here. Whether your dog wants to curl up next to me while I work, follow us from room to room, enjoy walks and playtime, or find a favorite quiet spot to nap, we’ll follow their normal routine and let them be themselves. One family at a time. No resident pets. No children. Someone home throughout the day. Our goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog isn’t simply being boarded — they’re staying in a calm, loving home where they are our priority. I work from home full-time in a quiet home with no children or pets, providing constant supervision, companionship, personalized care, and plenty of attention. I provide a safe, loving home where dogs receive patience, affection, one-on-one attention, and gentle care tailored to their unique needs and personality.
“We definitely recommend Tyler to take care of your dog! Very detailed descriptions of each visit along with photos from the walk. He shows a lot of care for our dog Holly and we will certainly continue to use his services moving forward 😁”
“Abigail was so great with moose! She worked through a snafu with our keys seamlessly and cared for moose so well. We can’t thank her enough for taking care of our boy while we were gone for an evening. ❤️”

“Casey is seriously a life saver and has taken care of our dogs with so much kindness and compassion. She had taken care of one of our boys from the first week we had him and he is now 1. He loves her!!! She also has helped our rescue pup adjust so well and has taken the time to come and meet him so he felt comfortable. Now he is just as in love as our young pup. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone who wants a reliable and flexible person who cares about their fur babies as much as you!”

About: Life-long pet lover with several years of dog walking experience. Also volunteered at the animal shelter, attended a dog training course, and took the vocational Health Occupations course in High School which included job shadowing at a vet's office. Scheduling should be pretty flexible. We are located in Wells & work part time locally. Please inform us what your needs are and we will try to accommodate! We live in an apartment so we will care for your dogs inside as well as giving them walks & allowing them in the yard on long leashes. Our two dogs will be overjoyed to have playmates, but if yours are shy or nervous we can keep them separated. Trips to the beach, dog park, or walking trails are also doable!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kennebunk
Emily is great! She takes care of your pets as if they were her own. She notices little things, like how they’re adapting and if they’re eating or feeling bad, and works with you to make sure they’re getting everything they need. Also, animals love her. She has a kind presence that makes them feel safe and comfortable. And great communication! Leaving just got so much easier🐈⬛
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Emily was wonderful with Tony! From the very beginning she was patient, calm, and willing to learn his routine, even though he can be a bit of a handful when meeting someone new. She listened carefully to all of my instructions, asked thoughtful questions, and made me feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care. She communicated throughout the visit, followed his training plan, and treated him with kindness and respect. It’s not easy finding someone willing to work with a dog who has some behavioral challenges, and I truly appreciated her confidence and willingness to learn. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Emily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Emily!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Kennebunk on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,196 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kennebunk. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Kennebunk stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Kennebunk. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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 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.
