“Renee really cares about animals and was super sweet to our very needy and sometimes difficult dog. She helped us out so we could enjoy our wedding night :) Thank you so much Renee!!”
“Jillian took fantastic care of our high-energy pup. She was super communicative and proactive. We’d recommend her absolutely and look forward to working with her again.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, so that’s 25 years of loving animals, but just 11 years as the sole caregiver of my own. From Labradors to Chihuahuas, to Police K-9s, I’ve loved them all, though I’m currently a cat lady. For the first time in my life, I don’t have any dogs at the moment, as I don’t feel like I have enough space for it to be fair to them. So this is how I get my dog fix, and my steps in at the same time 🤭. I currently have 2 cats and 1 hedgehog, I’m a sucker for an exotic pet. I’ve also had 4 snakes in the past (my husband is terrified or else I’d have some right now). One of my cats is leash trained, and one has some medical needs, so I’m familiar with oral medication administration as well. I do work full-time during the week, so I am only available after 5pm. Sometimes I’m able to step away for breaks as I work from home 3 days per week, but my work is pretty irregular, so afternoons and evenings are the best bet for my availability. I live in a relatively small condo, so I don’t have much space. As much as I would love to offer boarding, I don’t think it would be fair to your pet, as I also do not have a yard. BUT I’m more than happy to stop by your home and fulfill any requests!
“Ariana is amazing! She takes such great care of my fur baby and treats him with so much love and attention. She's always responsive, sends photos, and provides detailed updates so I know exactly how things are going while I'm away. She consistently goes above and beyond, and I trust her completely. Highly recommend!”
“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. ❤️”
“I rebooked Danelle for a dog drop-in and cat med and she ended up doing an extra med for the cat who developed an infection leading up to the visit. Always clear communication and reliable. Thanks again!”
About: Hi, I’m Abby! I’m a remote worker based in Saco, Maine. I grew up caring for multiple dogs, cats and rabbits and have been pet sitting for many years. I feel confident with all breeds, ages, and personalities. I’m home almost all day and have a very flexible schedule. I offer walks and drop-ins in the Saco area, but I’m happy to travel farther for house sitting. Just message me if you have any questions - I’d love to meet your fur babies! I work remotely as a freelance designer so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available throughout the day for drop-ins and walks and can do overnights with enough notice. I am very respectful of how others prefer to care for their pets and their homes. I will treat your beloved pet like my own and make sure to follow your outlined instructions for them. Keeping your pet safe and comfortable while you are away is key!
“Sirena has been wonderful watching my dog. She was very upfront about her schedule so I knew when to expect the drop ins which I really appreciated. She gave detailed reviews of each visit and I felt very comfortable and knew that my dog was being well cared for. I will 100% use Sirena again!”
About: I have had and loved many pets in my life. I think our pets are the light of our lives and deserve the best care possible, especially while their people are away! I am self employed, and have the flexibility and freedom to care for animals on my own schedule! I currently care for my own pets at home, and because of my self employment I can come and go as needed for your pets too In your home I would be very respectful and discreet. Security and pet safety is my priority. I want your home to feel as normal as possible for your furry friends while you’re away
About: Hello!! My background with dogs began at a very young age! My family has always had dogs, started with Labrador Retriever’s and now we have a 5-year old rescue mutt named Meeka! I have experience with dogs as small as Teddy Bears to as big as Bernese Mountain Dogs. I truly love to be around all dogs and would love the opportunity to care for yours! I do work a full time job but have the flexibility after work to tend and care for your animals and their needs. My weekends are typically free and I would love to fill my time with dogs or cats if I have the chance! I will definitely keep you updated, however you prefer, while caring for your dog! I will make sure to keep your dog to the schedule you would like and to always give a good belly scratch and endless love!
About: I have taken care of 25+ dogs and cats in the past 3 years, to include in home/overnight pet- and house-sitting, dog walking, brushing, litter box maintenance and pill-based medication administration. When taking care of other people’s pets, I provide the attention and care that I was seeking for my own cat and dog (who, sadly, are no longer with me.) My top priority is the safety of the pet, and to that end, I take no risks with the animals in my care – food protocols are carefully followed, walks are always on leash and doors are carefully monitored to ensure indoor cats remain indoors. With my pet care services, you will have: • Happy, safe and well-cared-for pets • A clean and orderly (tidy) home • Clear and timely communication • Regular and frequent updates (with photos and videos of your pets) • Reliable and dependable pet and home care As a recently-retired educator, I have a very flexible schedule, with plenty of time for your pets. I am available for daily walks, overnight or weekend house sits (your house or mine) and vacation sits (1-4 weeks is typical). When starting a new relationship with a client and their pet(s), I schedule a brief ‘pop over’ appointment where I can meet the animal(s) in the presence of their humans. This helps everyone involved – pets and humans – get to know me and feel comfortable with me before I take on the responsibility for the pet. I take care to be calm around the pets I sit - I let both cats and dogs take their time to warm up to me (come to me when they are ready, sniff my hands, my person, my things). I am careful when feeding animals - particularly dogs - giving them space. I follow the pet's routine - if they sleep on the bed, I let them sleep on the bed; if they like to go in and out frequently, I let them go in and out frequently. I try to make them as comfortable as I can, in their human's absence.

About: Experienced veterinary technician assistant with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals. Skilled in medication administration and comfortable caring for pets of any age or size. I go to school and work a job but I also find myself with lots of free time during the week.

About: My super strength as a pet caregiver, is my interest in getting to know an animal's personality and working mindfully and respectfully with their nature. I prioritize safety, trust and attention. I've taught young children and raised kittens, puppies and chickens over the last twenty years. As a lover of Great Pyrenees (having raised three) and cats, I have great respect for the subtle and obvious efforts our animals use to communicate with us. I'm experienced with all ages. Senior pets are very dear to me. I've had the honor to provide comforting care for my own animals and provide tender touch, medications, dietary support, and a calm presence through their final months. I also love training and nurturing puppies. I am available to provide individualized day and overnight care for your pet(s) and plants. Contact me to discuss your short-term or longterm needs. I am especially interested in helping people feel at ease during holidays and vacations by providing qualified, experienced multi-day pet care. Mindfulness, kindness, and experience guide my services. I'm happy to travel to care for pets in the comfort of their home or mine! My place was designed for Great Pyrenees. I have a large, protective deck and fenced yard for supervised off-leash, outdoor time.
About: I grew up with a multitude of dogs ranging from chiuauha mix to English mastiff - we never had less than 2 at a time. Now as an adult I have a beautiful Golden who I trained myself (potty, crate, clicker, leash,play), and I couldn't be more happy! Daisy was in daycare in the beginning since I was still working in office so she's been around a lot of dogs ranging in size. We've also added a maltipoo named Frankie to the house. Crate trained and she likes to sit, but boy is she stubborn. She's well mannered though and for those rare instances she's not, she's significantly easier to just pick up compared to Daisy. As for cats, I grew up with a lot but the most at once was 3 which including my gorgeous Bella. She's a senior now but still has a bunch of energy for when she wants to play. She's a good mix of put you in your place and just wants to be loved, I definitely lucked out with her attitude/personality. We have some toys and all the furniture is approved by her so your lil feline will never be in want of a bed or playtime. I walk the girls about 2 miles a day with lots of playtime in the house. Depending on what you need I could add yours to our walk or play, or I don't have a job at the moment so I'm free for the remaining time. For house sitting I’ll follow whatever instructions you leave. I’ll make sure you fur baby gets all the love and attention to make up for you not being there. Lots of love, treats, and positive reinforcement. If at my home there will be lots of pets, play, and attention. If any dogs get overwhelmed then there are many doors to separate if needed, as well as my dogs have crates.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Old Orchard Beach is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Old Orchard Beach
Sparrow is wonderful! They are very attentive to detail and as agreed made sure they arrived at the specified time and all tasks performed. They are very compassionate and clearly love being around animals. I could be assured that if there was a problem or issue they were unsure of they would bring it to my attention. I have terrible PTSD from another pet sitters grave mistake, but Sparrow helped put my mind at ease. You won’t be disappointed hiring Sparrow to take care of your beloved pets.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

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.

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.
