“Maricela is fantastic. She was very skilled at caring for our elderly pup, and gave us terrific updates and photos. When we came home from our trip, Maggie was happy to see us but had clearly had a great time with Maricela - she got plenty of attention, walks, and was relaxed and happy girl. The house was spotless, just as we left it. Highly recommended!”
“Rachael stayed with our 2 girls for a week at our house. They loved her & we loved that they were in such great hands! While we were gone, we received numerous updates and pictures each day. We returned to an immaculate house! Very professional, Highly recommended!”
“10 out of 10 ! Craig and Chelsea were amazing! Extremely professional, knowledgeable and very intuitive when it came to caring for my boy! I was very impressed with the initial on boarding and the time Craig took to understand our pet’s needs, and behaviors to ensure it was a seamless experience while we were away . He had a terrific manner in meeting our pet for the first time and one could tell immediately that this was someone that truly cared for our pet’s wellbeing. It was the first time we left our pet alone to travel since rescuing him and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable that he was in good care than if left him with a family member!! We received regular updates and came home to a spotless home . Craig went above and beyond and it was overall a terrific experience!!! Thank you, thank you , thank you !!”

“Felicia is a wonderful dog and house sitter! This is the second time she has taken care of the dogs for us. She is warm and loving with the pups and very professional with her obligations. The dogs adore her and we are so glad we came across Felicia on Rover. Communication is strong and we lovingly refer to Felicia as our dog whisperer.”

About: I have grown up with animals in my entire family, always having to take care of them and take them on road trips with me so I have plenty of good experience! I’m currently a college student playing basketball in southern maine but don’t worry I still have plenty of time to take care of your pets!! I will respect all of your rules and take care of your fur babies perfectly and safely in your home and treat them as I would with my own!!
“Makaylah did a fantastic job taking care of my dog, Gunnar. I needed her last minute for a weekend stay when my usual pet sitter had a family emergency, and Makaylah was very responsive and immediately set up a meet and greet. She knows a lot about dogs and was instantly comfortable with Gunnar. She asked all the right questions and sent me frequent updates, which I appreciated. I came home to a happy dog and a clean house - what more could you ask for? I will definitely use her again, and can highly recommend her services.”
About: I’ve been talking care of all types of dogs since I was 10. Started small with just family and around the neighborhood but as I got older I’ve had many people ask for me to pet sit or just bring their dog for a walk. Give their animal some love! I’m currently working a part time job and enrolled in college for nursing so college breaks and holidays work best for me. Although, come summer I will be able to have more flexibility due to not being away at college. Always wanting to get exercise and play with animals so if walking your dog or checking in is what you need then I’m the perfect person for that. I have an invisible fence that my puppy Lola uses. She is super friendly but very vocal. I’m in a safe neighborhood where animals are well loved. My backyard is huge with lots of space to run and a great pool that my dog loves to swim in. If we are at your home then I will make sure I am aware of the surroundings before so I can best accommodate for the safety of both myself and the animals.
“Sarah was great! Sent pictures and was timely on her check ins with our two pups! Very patient and understanding with dogs who struggle with meeting new people. We will have her help again!”
About: I have owned my own dogs from puppies to senior dogs. I don’t have any professional pet care experience but I am very compassionate and love spending time with dogs! I am an avid hiker and outdoor lover so dog walking is a perfect opportunity for me. I work full time from Tuesday to Sunday so the Monday and Sunday are best for me. Anytime of day will work! Early morning during the week may also work. I will find safe areas to walk your dog and always clean up after them. I will also bring water and a portable bowl for them to drink from.
“Aphtyn is wonderful with our dogs—patient, kind, communicative, reliable, and tidy. We’re lucky to have had her stay with them for a long weekend and will be sure to book her again in the future. She made everything easy and anxiety-free!”
“Kym was great! I enjoyed getting to know her before we left. She came twice to visit and meet with YellowCat. He's generally shy around strangers but warmed up to her during her stay in our home. She took care of him and the house. Clean, Responsive, Responsible...I felt very comfortable having her stay and grateful to find her for YellowCat!”
“Ashley was great. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our house and our dogs while we were away for the weekend! We look forward to using her as our dog-sitter again in the future!”

Alexandra G.
“Alexandra is an amazing person. She is so caring to people and especially animals. I have never seen so much empathy in someone before and Alexandra is the perfect kind of person to love and care for your furr baby when you need her to. She's also very responsible and really makes sure she is doing everything right when it comes to work but also things she does for herself. I have no doubt in my mind that Alexandra would be the best fit to care for your dog and I think your dog would agree too once they meet her.”
