“Caitlin took great care of Enzo and Bella. An added bonus were her grandparents, who live with her and were added support for the puppies. They were so sweet and attentive, giving lots of lap time and walks. When we picked them up, the pups were happy and healthy. 😍 Thank you all!”

About: Hi and thanks for considering me to take care of your dog (s)! I may not have years of experience in owning a dog, (just got our 1st puppy last year!) but I am a huge lover of animals and have years of experience in taking care of them. I'm the girl who stocks up on treats for when my coworkers bring their dogs to work! I'm the girl who cant walk past a dog on a trail without wanting to stop and pet the dogs. I am loving, caring, and will spoil your fur baby with lots of playtime, love, and a fun run or walks! Let's talk about you and your dog's needs! I do work full time from 9-5pm Monday through Friday, with most weekends off, But I can check in on your babies before or after work, if it's just drop ins, or schedule walks. We do live in a nice quiet and low traffic safe neighborhood with plenty of trails around to walk your dog, and I will always abide and follow any special instructions you may have with the utmost care and respect, so that he or she, and YOU, will be happy.
“Cecelia is the best of the best! We truly have never had such exceptional care, service, flexibility, and attention for Clover before. She truly is the best sitter we’ve ever had. Clover was staying the week while we were away for our wedding. She was so accommodating asking about her routine, if clover would like special treats, and so much more that went above and beyond. We were a little hard to reach during our wedding weekend but she kept up with the greatest updates so we knew clover was in good hands. I can’t stress how much clover loved Cecelia and we did too! We hope Clover gets to stay with her multiple times in the future. Thank you so much!”

About: Having worked alongside my wife (Felicia S.), who has earned Star Sitter status on Rover, I understand how important communication, consistency, and trust are when caring for someone else's pet. Helping her with her pet-sitting services has given me valuable hands-on experience with dogs of different personalities, ages, and needs. My goal is to provide the same dependable, loving care that has helped her earn Star Sitter recognition while building my own relationships with pets and their owners. I’ve cared for my own pets and helped friends and family with their animals over the years, in addition to providing pet care independently. My experience includes feeding, refreshing water, daily care, walking, exercise, playtime, and offering plenty of attention and companionship. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, doggy daycare, and boarding. Depending on your pet’s needs, care may include walks, potty breaks, feeding, fetch, exercise, and relaxed companionship. Our home is set well back from the main road and features a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can enjoy safe, supervised outdoor play. I’m comfortable reinforcing established puppy routines, providing a gentler pace for senior pets, and crating your dog if requested. What sets me apart is my patience, flexible schedule, and commitment to giving each pet individualized attention. I’m generally home full-time, allowing me to accommodate daytime walks, visits, and plenty of one-on-one care. I carefully follow your instructions and provide photo and message updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I'm always happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand to get to know you and your pet, answer any questions, and make sure we're a great fit! I work from home. I have plenty of flexibility to help with your pets. I’m home the majority of the day and can easily adjust to your pet’s schedule. While in my care, your pet will be closely supervised, treated with patience and respect, and given plenty of attention. I follow your routines and household rules, and provide regular photos and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Hannah and her family were really great at taking care of my pup! I really appreciate her communicativeness and her flexibility. I had no concerns while she was taking care of my dog and would absolutely use her again for future boarding needs!”

About: I love to make sure your babies are happy, safe and comfortable so that you can enjoy your time away without worry. I’m a teacher/social worker by trade, so I’m patient, kind and caring. Special needs or requests are not an issue. My consistent communication and caring for your pets as my own is what makes me your best choice! I’m a social worker, so I’m off on weekends routinely, which coincides with families wanting time away. Occasionally available weeknights for walks or drop ins. Weekends are more flexible, and I’m usually more available. I generally prefer boarding in my home and my routine is planned around your babies. Their needs are my priority! Happy to provide care in my home for dogs on weekends. Walking trails and small yard. Other dogs are plentiful here, but-I will always keep your dog leashed at all times. I’m not against an occasional pup cup trip but have also respected meat-based, gluten free and hypoallergenic diets as well. Only one dog (family) at a time.

About: Im up early as a teacher and home by 3. My dog Genie could use a play pal if considered or maybe solo is more your dog style. I have alot of pet care experience from many farm animals to exotic snakes. Personal Policies: *please contact me with dates and TIMES* for your pets needs.* *24 hour service includes 3 checkins* *transparency is a must-i.e is your dog questionable around kids? *willing to negotiate prices- do you have more than one animal that needs care?/ off site terms* *happy to send photos and check ins of your pets Im currently working as an art teacher so im generally home by 3. Im more of a homebody type that prefers adventures outside than in the city. I have a fenced in yard but in a residential neighborhood. I would consider this if your dog and my dog became friends outside first.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for several years, including my own dog, Million. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to each dog’s needs. I live in a quiet home with no children, no smoking, and a calm environment that helps dogs feel safe and relaxed. I follow feeding routines closely, enjoy walking and playing with dogs, and can provide frequent updates, photos, and videos. Your dog will be treated like family while staying with me. I work from home, so I am at home most of the day and able to give dogs plenty of attention. Because my schedule is flexible, I can take them out for walks, outdoor breaks, and playtime whenever they need. I’m available on weekdays and weekends, and your dog will never be left alone for long periods. I live in a clean and quiet house with no children, no smoking, and multiple extra rooms where visiting dogs can rest comfortably. We also have an open yard where dogs can safely explore under supervision. My dog Million is friendly and fully trained, and I introduce dogs slowly to ensure everyone feels safe. I provide free toys and treats, follow your dog’s routine closely, and send frequent photo and video updates so you always know how your pup is doing.
About: Hi pet parents! My name is Elena. Im obsessed with all animals, especially dogs. Im happiest outdoors and go on adventure walks with my own dog every day. No matter the weather, I’d rather be on a walk! *I’ve inquired with Rover about why my rating is lower, it is from an incomplete booking and nothing can be done. Please see my reviews for testaments to the quality of care I provide! I am a geologist and work multi-week shifts elsewhere in the country, so when I am home I have lots of time to schedule pet care. I am especially looking for dog walking and drop-in visits that I can schedule according to your pet’s needs. For boarding, I only care for one dog at a time (or two from the same family). This would be perfect for a senior dog, special needs dog, or a puppy which requires loving attention and a calm, quiet space. I want to ensure a safe and happy experience for you and your pet. I don’t take any risks if I am caring for someone else’s pet, the same as I would expect for care of my own dog. Your dog will feel safe with me. I always use praise and positive reinforcement to best work with your pup.
“Carolyn was wonderful! She watched our dog while we skied mount snow for the day. She was flexible with drop off/ pick up times, sent us pictures throughout the day, and even gifted us some home baked cookies! ?”
“Mimi is GREAT! She took amazing care of my dog. She has a wonderful indoor space in her home for your dog to play, hang out, and sleep and a big yard for outside time. She even took my dog on a few adventures — a trip to Home Depot and a walk in the park. She seemed to really clue into my dog’s personality and connect with her. Will definitely be setting up another visit with Mimi!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs from a young age and have always had a strong love for animals. I’m passionate about providing reliable, attentive, and loving care for every pup! I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals, looking to spend my free time caring for your pups. I’m dependable, attentive, and patient, and I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have a spacious fenced-in yard and maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly home. I’m always mindful of ways to create the most comfortable, secure, and welcoming environment for your pets :)
“Niccolo took great care of Tilly and kept us updated throughout. We felt extremely secure and comfortable leaving Tilly with Niccolo’s family and were able to truly enjoy our time away knowing she would be so well taken care of. Would not hesitate rebook.”

“Briana and her family took the best care of my dog! I can’t wait to use them again on my next trip. Great communication before and during the trip, and adorable pictures too! Highly recommend!”


About: I am a nurse practitioner with extensive professional caregiving experience and have had dogs my entire life. It is a gift to be a pet owner. Pets bring us so much joy and in return we get to give that joy back to them! I’m comfortable carefully following feeding schedules, routines and detailed care instructions, as well as administering routine medications. I would be the primary caregiver. One picture here is of my 15-year-old son Matthew who was at home. Also another friend in one of the pictures who visit often. I work part-time currently. I enjoy being at home with our dog and two cats! Most days I’m at home . If I am needed to work outside the house, I would not be away from home for over 6 hours. One Household at a Time — Personalized In-Home Boarding 🐾 I offer personalized overnight boarding in my home for dogs and cats who do best in a comfortable, relaxed home environment. What makes my boarding different is that I accept pets from only one visiting household at a time. Your pet won’t be one of several unrelated animals being boarded together. This allows me to provide focused, individualized care and plenty of attention, affection, playtime and companionship throughout their stay. For dogs: I have a friendly Golden Retriever and two cats of my own, so visiting dogs must be reliably cat-friendly and comfortable living around cats. I prefer a meet-and-greet before the first stay to make sure your dog is comfortable in our home and is a good fit with our resident pets. For cats: I welcome cats as well and provide a quiet, comfortable space where they can settle in at their own pace. I accept only one visiting cat at a time, or multiple cats from the same household, allowing me to provide a calm environment and plenty of individual attention. I am a nurse practitioner with extensive professional caregiving experience. I’m comfortable carefully following feeding schedules, routines and detailed care instructions, as well as administering routine medications. I especially enjoy caring for mature and senior pets and understand that some animals benefit from extra patience, reassurance and a predictable routine. You’ll receive regular photos and updates throughout your pet’s stay, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re comfortable, receiving plenty of attention and being cared for as an individual. My goal is for your pet to feel like a guest in my home—not one of many pets in a boarding facility. ❤️🐾

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Kittery
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!
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!

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.

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 .

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.
