“We felt really comfortable leaving our skittish boy, Dingo, with Mike and Linda once we met them and saw that he was going to be doted on! We got almost daily pics and didn’t worry about a thing while we were on vacation. Dingo was reportedly loved by their grandchildren too over their Easter Sunday dinner so we weren’t too sure he’d even want to come back home with us but he did!! Highly recommend Mike & Linda! 🩷”
“Kristin saved us with a last minute booking! She and her family are so sweet. They sent us updates and pictures while we were away and even let us extend Tater’s stay by several days. We highly recommend Kristin and James!”
“This was Lucy's second stay with Bob, Kathi and Milo. I had been so happy with her first stay, I wouldn't have thought it could get any better. This trip Lucy settled in even more and made a great new friend, Maise. I really hated to leave Lucy for such a long time. We are inseparable and have gotten into routines we both enjoy. Ripping that away from her feels so cruel. But when we walk get to Bob's house, Lucy marches right in and begins exploring and getting comfortable. I'm not so sure she was ready to end her vacation this time! And Bob continues to cater to my separation anxiety by sending me regular updates and pictures. This is the BEST! Thank-you, Bob! (and Milo! and Kathi!) ”
About: Growing up on a farm has given me an immense amount of pet care experience. I have been an avid horseback rider my entire life. There are few animals I haven’t owned. I have managed a doggy daycare as well as trained dogs in obedience and for hunting birds. Anytime after 530 Tuesday through Friday I am available for walks or checking in on your pet. Friday night through Monday afternoon my schedule is flexible. I am a vigilant and aware pet sitter. Our home is on a quiet street and the backyard, while not fenced, is majorly closed in.
“We had a wonderful experience with Katie and cannot recommend her enough! She was extremely responsive, organized, and friendly. We got daily pics and updates and she took wonderful care of Moose. We will definitely use her again!”
“They were AMAZING. Sent us cute photos and videos throughout. I can tell our dog Lucy had a great time. They were also very polite and kind the entire time. We've booked with them prior as well with the same experience.”
“Shauni is an amazing sitter who is very communicative and treated my dogs like her own. She also went above and beyond when my car broke down en route and was a real life saver. Moose and Iggy will be returning!”
About: I have had my dog for over 9 years. She is very good with others. I have a fenced in backyard, and a doggy door of the screened porch. When we are home during the day in good temperatures, the door to the house will be open giving dogs the freedom of where they want to relax or play. I am currently a stay at home Mom to my wonderful twins therefore I have a pretty flexible schedule I can work around, especially if it avoids the kids naps. I have a fenced in backyard that is connected to the house via a screened in porch so there are many options of where to hang out. At night everyone is inside.
“My dog always has a great time with Nicole. She is great with communication and sends plenty of pictures and videos. I know he is always well taken care of when he’s there!”
“Felicia was absolutely incredible with Luna. She took her on so many great walks. Sent pics of Luna snuggled up on her couch. Luna came back so happy but wiped after the couple of busy and active days with Felicia. Luna is already looking forward to her next stay! Would highly recommend Felicia - she was so awesome, highly communicative and took amazing care of Luna🐾”
“My dog stayed overnight with Chelsea while I was out of town and we had the best experience with her. She was incredibly attentive and I felt good knowing she was in safe hands. I would highly recommend Chelsea and will be using her again! ❤️”
“Donna and John are great to work with and we fully trust them with our pup. They communicated well before and during our trip and it was clear our dog settled in quickly and was comfortable throughout. We'll be asking them to sit again for sure!”
“This was the second time that Emily sat our dog and cat at her house and we couldn’t be happier! She is communicative and detail oriented and I can tell that my pets loved her and her family. We will absolutely use Emily again.”
“Sylwia and Doug were beyond great. We felt so at ease our entire trip knowing he was being looked after by them. Our dog can be a little anxious at first, and Sylwia picked right up on that and helped him feel comfortable. We loved the daily pictures, and will use them again in the future! Highly recommend.”
“Great dogsitter, and can be mathematically proven. 4 dogs + 0 problems ÷ 4 days = 1 dog problem per day. And the 1 dog problem was that they didn't want to leave her backyard doggy fantasyland and come back to our boring home. Will use again next time we leave town.”

Sheila was fantastic! We traveled from out of state for our son's wedding. We contacted Sheila after reading her bio. She was communicative, friendly, and professional. Our meet and greet went well from the beginning and our ability to leave our dog without reserve was such a gift that allowed us to truly enjoy our family time away from home. Sheila is truly a special person.
Diamond was absolutely amazing with our dog, and we truly could not have asked for a better sitter. From the moment we met her, we felt completely at ease knowing our pup was in loving, caring, and responsible hands. She went above and beyond with updates, attention, and genuine care, and it was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. What really stood out was her kindness, patience, and professionalism. She treated our dog like family, and that means everything to us. Coming home to a happy, relaxed pup says it all. We are beyond grateful for Diamond and would trust her again in a heartbeat. If you are looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and truly wonderful with animals, Diamond is the one. We would absolutely love to book with her again in the future!
This was our first time boarding with Alyssa and her family. I could tell from our initial meet-and-greet that our golden would love his time with them -- and he did! During his stay, Alyssa checked in on things she wasn't sure about and sent pictures and videos of his walks, snuggles with family, and trips to parks. I could tell our boy was a happy camper! Being assured he was in good hands made it a lot easier to enjoy our time away. Highly recommend and would definitely rebook!
They took great care of my little Maya for two weeks, accepting the booking mere days before my trip. They were pleasant, professional, and provided many updates that all reflected my happy, and comfortable little girl. I wouldn't hesitate to rebook with them again in the future. Thank you!
Mack and Dennis had their very first Rover sleep-away with James, and they were welcomed with open arms by his whole family. Everyone was so sweet and hospitable, and his little girl gave them plenty of cuddles, which they absolutely loved. James was incredibly easy to work with. He was responsive, flexible, and genuinely accommodating. I felt completely at ease knowing my boys were in such a warm, caring home. I would absolutely recommend James to anyone looking for a trustworthy, family-oriented sitter. We will happily book with him again.
We were on a waiting list for over a year to bring home our puppy. It just so happened that he was ready to come home just a few weeks before our wedding! Ally was a lifesaver taking our puppy, Banner for our wedding weekend! She was incredibly friendly, communicative, and caring. It’s obvious she is an animal lover. We felt very confident that our boy was in good hands and were able to enjoy our wedding stress free. Highly recommend!

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 .
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
