About: I currently work as a kennel technician at an animal shelter. I am experienced in handling dogs of all temperaments, prioritizing the dog’s safety and my own safety. I’ve pet sat for many clients. I have taken care of older dogs and young dogs. I am comfortable taking care of dogs of all temperaments. My services include dog walking, playing fetch, and feeding and watering. I am currently a part time employee at an animal shelter. However, I am not be working everyday of the week, or all day. I will have plenty of time to care for your pups in the morning time and evening time. When I do drop in visits, I ensure that all of your pets needs are met, which includes playing fetch or going for a walk, so that they are able to get energy out before their owner gets home.

About: Our home is very pet friendly/lovable! We have a 13 year old Miniature Dachshund named Marlena. She has spent her entire life growing up with our children and has always been around other dogs (we have been home to multiple long-term foster pups). I am confident in my ability to provide a fun, loving and positive atmosphere/experience for your dog and look forward to meeting you both! Being a stay at home mom gives me the ultimate flexibility to provide 24/7 care for your dog. This allows for frequent potty breaks, lots of attention and somebody who is always around for dogs who may have anxiety and prefer not to be left alone. Your dog becomes one of the family while staying I in our home. They have the freedom to roam and lounge wherever they find themselves comfortable! Accommodating individual needs is no problem at all. Multitasking has become a valuable skill set and I am very good at maintaining structure and staying on schedule.
“Katie was wonderful! Very patient with Jello and very kind. Jello is an anxious dog who takes a while to become comfortable with new people, and Katie was very understanding. By the end of their time together, Jello really warmed up!”
About: Growing up, I always wanted to have a dog as a pet - I was gifted a stuffed animal dog at a few days old and was lovingly referred to as "Dog Dog". As I grew up, most animals were in reference to dogs, for example, when I saw dear in my backyard, regardless of how much my parents tried to reteach me, I called them "Dear Dogs". When I was 11, my family adopted a dog (FINALLY), as a young puppy, and between my mom and I primarily, we trained and raised him to be our own, fun loving, laidback, dream dog. Whether it be high school, college, or as an adult, I have always found myself being drawn to animal care as more of a passion than a job - it fills my cup and brings me a lot of joy. Pet care has been a large part of not only my nannying experience of 3 years and babysitting, but also a way to help me pay for graduate school. I do over-nights, longer term stays, walks, and anything in between. For the last 6 years, I have lived with roommates that have both dogs and cats, who I have treated and cared for like my own pet. Additionally, I have experience fostering dogs, pet sitting multiple animals at once, as well as have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and needs (medical pills, drops, chemo, and wide range of anxiety levels). Overall, I have taken care of a wide range of animals of all ages, from puppies who are young and rambunctious, to older dogs and cats that need special care and attention. The only reason I don't currently have a dog of my own is due to a busy work schedule myself (I am a college rowing coach in the area for a team of 55 student-athletes) and I don't feel it would be fair to have a pet I could not give all of myself to. So, I am drawn and dedicated to helping care for other's pets as a way to fill that part of my void and make extra income. As a collegiate rowing coach, my schedule ebbs and flows depending on the time of year or time of day, but my day typically starts at 6:30am, with some flexibility in the day (if it is planned out in advance) and more availability in the evenings for pet care during the week. On the weekends, when I am not traveling for competition, I am very available and flexible. Because of my own experience with having pets in my home, whether they are officially mine or not, I take the love and care it takes to make a pet the happiest it can be, very seriously. Due to the fact that I wish I could afford to have my own pet, every pet I take care of receives the same level of care I would provide as if it were my own. I would want the same id someone was caring for a pet of mine.
“Jaclyn is great! Super reliable, responds to texts right away, and sends fun updates. I'm completely confident that my kitties are in good hands. She's also been great with my last-minute scheduling habits! :-p Will definitely be continuing to hire her.”
“Lena did a great job looking after my dog. She was prompt and able to accommodate my schedule at the last minute for a meet and greet and my dog instantly loved her. She followed all of the directions I left for her and left the house exactly how she found it! I was reassured knowing my dog was in great hands while I was away. Would recommend!”
“Always so great with our animals. Lots of glamor pics and always makes sure our dogs have a walk as long as it is weather appropriate. Can not thank her enough for coming through.”
“Jonas has been great with our cat, spending videos and keeping us updated. They also waded through 17” of snow when we were out of town to feed our cat, and changed around their schedule to bring a package in for us before the snow came. Would highly recommend!”
About: Greetings! I'm Daniel, I've been pet-sitting and dog-walking off and on for 17 years. I love animals: With me, you get a new friend for your pets, and a dependable steward of your home. I believe in the Hawaiian meaning of "Kahu," that we should be guardians and beloved attendants of our animal friends. I devote highly sensitive heart-centered care for your pets for two main reasons: 1) I am a remote worker as a writer and healing coach, so I can be at home with our furry friends. I am not just feeding and walking your dog(s) and caring for your cats; I am providing emotional support and plenty of care (frequent outdoor breaks and walks, playtime, pats, massage, energy work, etc.). 2) I am a professional in the practice of meditation and the healing arts, a path that cultivates empathy, which helps me bond with animals and be more attuned to their needs. I have been on this path for 17 years. I am highly intuitive. I practice Eastern techniques of energy work (qi qong and martial arts) and I am a certified Reiki practitioner, so I love to connect with animals as part of that practice (they are great conductors of energy, which is only ever healing and calming for them to experience). I aspire to the highest level of performance and etiquette. I promise to treat your pets and space as sacred; to maintain a clear boundary between me and your possessions; and to leave no trace. I understand that by inviting me into your home to care for your pets and space that I am with you as a new friend. From my many years of cultivation on my spiritual, healing, and professional path, I assure you my integrity is outstanding, and I would be happy to send you testimonies and references to confirm. Thank you for your trust. I would be happy to chat about sitting or walking for you. I look forward to joining you and yours' in friendship. Warm regards, Daniel I will be available to be at home with your pet for most of every day that I am sitting. My only obligation that takes me out of house are walking other dogs (1 to 3 hours per day) and then the occasional social or other engagement. I will never leave your pet alone for longer than 5 hours. As a remote worker, both for writing and offering healing/coaching services, I work from home and am therefore able to maintain a comforting presence for your pet and provide frequent outdoor time, play, and other care. I recognize the great trust that people grant me in caring for their homes and pets. Integrity is a guiding value of my life: You can rest assured that I will honor my commitment to care for your space and pets with the utmost attention and respect. I'll honor your instructions for being in your house and caring for your pets. I always live lightly, use no more than I need and am permitted to use, and I leave no trace. Thank you for your trust. Daniel
About: If you want your pets/children/homes well taken care of give me a call! I will make sure all of your needs are met if you hire me! I plan on freeing up my schedule to do more jobs through the day instead of one full time job. Help me get started by hiring me! If I was in the position to hire someone to babysit, house sit, or pet sit, I would want someone to take all of my requests seriously and do a good job so that’s what I do!
“Brianna did a great job taking care of my Boston terrier mix, Gunnar. He's a new dog to me although he's 7 years old, so I shared with her what I know about him, and they got along famously. She was very responsive and communicated well from the first contact, to setting up the meet and greet, to the day she came for two drop in visits while I was gone for a very long day. She took some very sweet photos of Gunnar and told me all about their activities, so I knew he was having as good a day as he could have, being alone except for her two visits. She gave him his treats and took him for walks, and it looks like they had a good time. He was happy when I got home and hadn't touched a thing in the house. I would highly recommend Brianna for your pet!”
About: I have many years of experience caring for both dogs and cats for friends and clients. I have also fostered a dog for a span of a couple weeks. Although I don't currently have any pets of my own, I therefore have plenty of love and attention to give to every animal I care for. I enjoy keeping pets active with walks and outdoor play, spending quality time with them indoors, maintaining a clean environment, and, of course, rewarding them with treats when appropriate. I am a calm, dependable, and positive person who values routine and consistency. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away :) I love routine and live by my planner to stay organized. I enjoy haveing animals apart of that rontine as well, while also understanding that every pet has unique needs and that some require more time and attention than others. I consistently have Wednesdays and Thursdays free all day. I'm also available for early morning visits and evening appointments, allowing me to provide flexible and dependable care. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every dog and cat has different needs, and I adjust my care to match their energy level, preferences, and routine. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, keep water bowls full, clean up after pets, and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, companionship, and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
“Miranda was on time and very conscientious providing detailed updates on our dog and lots of photos that we loved! We felt at ease knowing she would be in good hands with Miranda. Will definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and small animals for three years now. I also have experience with housesitting and babysitting. I work two 12 hour day shifts a week. I am currently working part time two 12 hour days. Dogs go out before I go to work and after. On my days off I am able to spend more time with them. I cannot offer pet sitting in my home at this time. I have three years of house/dog sitting experience as well as cats. I am able to stay at the clients place as needed for pet care.
“Avital was a great, reliable, and communicative sitter! They did drop in visits 3 times a day for my dog and rabbit, and I was always assured they were being cared for. Both animals warmed up to Avital very quickly and were completely comfortable with them coming into the house after we left.”
About: I have been working with animals as long as I can remember, I'm pet CPR/First Aid trained and have worked with animals with many medical issues and dog trainers. I am currently in school to become a veterinary technician. I am part time collage student. I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I volunteer some days, but that can be easily worked around. When I care for pets I make sure I have clear information and contact information for vets and the pet's parents. I also know First Aid should anything happen. We will talk over your pets daily routine, anything I need to know, and I will take notes and contact you should I have questions.

My two dogs love JoAnn! One pet is recovering from TPLO surgery which is long and requires extra care with harnessing and lifting. It's a relief knowing they are in capable hands and getting some attention while I'm away. Highly recommend JoAnn! Reliable care and excellent communication.
Ricky was everything I wanted in a cat sitter for my 2 girls, and I will definitely be asking him to watch them for all my future travels away from home! He spent significant time with every drop-in, which is a big plus when I’ve had previous sitters who rushed in and out. He kept their litter pristine, followed their feeding plan with care and sent pictures after every visit. For a worried pet mom, he allowed me to enjoy my vacation, knowing my girls had all they needed in my absence. I’m so grateful!☺️
Kristina is the absolute best! She went above and beyond to make sure our cats were safe and secure. She saved one of our babiest after an unfortunate catio escape when she could have just assumed the missing kitty was hiding somewhere in the house. We are so grateful to have someone so thoughtful and caring watch our cats while we’re gone.
Katie was a wonderful sitter and would highly recommend her services. We will definitely be using her for future sitting! One of our kitties is getting older, so we appreciated her knowledge and enthusiasm in caring for and doting on them. She left things neat, tidy, and we came home to two very content cats!
Krista was so absolutely wonderful! This was our first time leaving our furry friends alone for more than a couple of days, so I was a little anxious about the whole thing, and she made it so easy and worry-free for us to leave them in her care 😍☺️ She did such an amazing job sending us updates, and the communication was great! Will definitely come back to her again anytime we need someone to watch over our kittens again 😍😍 thank you! ☺️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lewiston is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $26 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 October 2026, there are 885 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lewiston. 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 .
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 , 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 Lewiston. 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
