“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!”
“Mariah did a great job. Always keeps us informed and sends great photos. The house is in great shape when we get home. Offered to come an extra day if we got stuck in bad weather”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my entire life, from Siamese cats to Great Danes! Huge lover of the outdoors and animals of all kinds, especially my sweet 13 year old kitty, Cranberry Bog! :) I work in the education field, so I am avaliable after 2:30 every week day, with most weekends open to take care of your special furry friends! I am a huge believer in creating a safe space for all animals and ensuring their comfort while in my care! I will always communicate with pet parents about all steps of the care process & updates! :)
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: I've walked dogs before, but I am not as experienced with dogs as I am with cats, however, I like dogs and hope to get more experience caring for them. I currently attend university, I'm also a student athlete, but I'd love to make some extra cash and I really love animals. I am studying animal behavior at school. For both cats and dogs, I will do whatever asked of you in terms of how often to feed them, take them out, medicate them, etc. However my schedule is very busy and I might not be able to go to your house multiple times a day.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 13. Have 2 dogs myself and they are amazing. I like to spoil my dogs and I’m reliable because I like to give the dogs attentions. animal lover since i was a kid and always connected with dogs :) Part time. Fill their daily needs when I’m with them and entertain them to get their moving or relaxing environment if they need it. :) I will feed them, bathe them, let them play, walk them, and or based on the clients schedules and needs I will do my best to fill those requirements in order to maximize their dogs happiness
“Clayton was wonderful with Buddy and I've already asked about the next times I am away for work. I know Buddy is in good hands and well loved with Clayton! I highly recommend him.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was born. During high school I used to dog sit for many family friends. Typically overnights and occasional drop ins. A couple years ago I moved out of my parents house and have been dog sitting for my friends now that they have their own pets, as well as my family who recently adopted a new kitten (If you have cats that need care) I am very adaptable and responsible, I’ve cared for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs. I love them all! I have also pet sat for animals who have special diets, that require me to prep dinner instead of the typical scoop of kibble. I’m currently working full time at a local university but am out by 3:30pm every day. If you work late this is perfect to let your dog out for a walk and feed them. I am totally fine with working late I am very adaptable and understanding of diets and energy levels of different dogs. I am a very energetic person so if your puppy needs play, I can provide. If your senior dog needs company, I can provide. If your dog needs whole meals prepped I am also experienced in that. I can care for your pet in any way you need
About: Friends, family, coworkers and mutual friends have trusted me to care for their fur-babies for many years. I have experience with all types of dogs and all types of situations. Whether it be a feed and a quick potty break, walks, or a week long stay, I have consistently provided a safe environment for these dogs. I’m a middle school teacher with a lot of free time in the summer and open afternoons during the school year! I am hoping to fill my time helping your family! I’m no stranger to cleaning up messes in the home. Although, I avoid these messes by being consistent with walks/letting dogs out to use the bathroom on a regular basis. I love creating a safe, but stimulating environment for dogs to spend their energy. As the weather warms up, I love being outside and/or going on walks to get both me and the dog(s) out of the house!
About: Pet care isn’t just a job for me, it’s my whole life. I’ve always had furry friends around me growing up, and feel a special bond with any animal I come by. From puppyhood to senior snuggles, I’ve seen all stages, and adore every second of it! I am currently a second year in college at UNE, but I have a very flexible schedule and will do my absolute best at providing quality care and service for your fuzzy friend! I provide pets with the upmost care. I have 2 dogs at home, along with 4 cats, and my own ESA, so I understand the dynamics between all animals and provide them with the safest environment possible!
About: I’m a school nurse, and animal lover looking to make some extra money this summer. I have grown up around animals my whole life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds, fish and horses. I currently live in Arundel, Maine and have a French bulldog, and two cats. I would love to help take care of your cherished, furry family members. I’m available for daily walks, feeding, and overnight sitting in your home. I have availability this summer through out the weekdays, and some weekends available for pet sitting. I will be diligent in following your care instructions and schedule for your pets to provide them kind, compassionate care. This should help to keep them calm, and still have normalcy and fun while you are away.
“Beth was wonderful! She did a last minute drop in for our two dogs which I am grateful for. She stayed in contact, sent lots of pics, and followed all directions. I'd definitely book Beth again. Thank you!”
“Thank you Aria for taking such good care of George and Gracie - as much as you could. You put my mind at ease with your postings and your daily pics of George in the same chair. But they were eating well and pooping a lot. That’s the best a mom could hope for. Till next time”
About: I have been a veterinary technician for about 3-4 years now. I also have experience volunteering in shelters and have grown up with animals my whole life. I work Monday-Wednesday and then am a stay at home mom the other days. I love meeting new animals and being the comfort pet parents need that they can trust someone so I am trying to make this a part of my routine again. I have experience with many different breeds and sizes of dogs which allow for me to make the best possible experience for both the dog and the owner
About: I’ve loved animals and grew up with them my entire life. I’m most comfortable with dogs and cats, but I can accommodate additional pets with direction and can deal with all different pet personalities quite well! I’m currently working from home, so my availability is quite open for most situations. I’m also open and would love something regular where I can stop in and do house calls or walks for those pet parents that had to return to the office! I can be flexible! I understand that your pet is your family, and I take that very very seriously. I promise to always treat them well and have their safety as a top priority.
“Grateful for Rachael‘s availability! I was in a bind when my husband was out of town and I needed to go into the office. Rachel quickly agreed to come over to walk our Maizy girl. With the reunion the day before, Maizy recognized Rachael immediately, even though it had been three months!She greeted her with a happy smile and tail wags! Thanks again, Rachael for taking such good care of our girl!”

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 of Pet Sitting in Kennebunk is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $34 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 1,192 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kennebunk. 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 Kennebunk. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
