Sergey stayed at my house for a long weekend with my 5-month-old pup. He was very responsive and responsible, and my dog loved him! He alerted me about a small medical problem during my absence and updated me the next day. I wouldn't hesitate to ask him to care for Archie again.

Renee was great, checking in with questions when needed. One of my dogs is more needy and she let me know so I could offer suggestions. I've invited her to come back and she said yes, so that's a good sign!

Highly recommend Maddie! She was fantastic with my elderly dog, Oliver, who has separation anxiety. During our initial visit, she was wonderful with him and asked detailed questions to understand his needs. ​Throughout my entire work trip, Maddie was highly communicative and sent regular photo updates, giving me total peace of mind. I returned to a clean house and a very comfortable, happy dog. It is rare to find someone who provides this level of specialized care, patience, and affection. I will absolutely use Maddie again!

Colby provided excellent care for our two dogs! He was easy to chat with ahead of our trip and communicative while we were away - we appreciated getting updates. Colby was tasked with administering medication to our younger dog and he did so reliably. Pups were happy when we returned and had clearly received good care. We will certainly hire Colby again!

Brittany did a wonderful job house and pet sitting for our senior dog, Sally, at a time that she needed a LOT of special attention after a medical incident- multiple pills throughout the day, careful with physical activity, etc. Brittany was flexible and had great communication prior to her stay. She left the house perfectly clean and we were so grateful to know Sally was well taken care of while we were out of town. I would highly recommend Brittany for anyone needing pet or house sitting services!

Amy is amazing! We have 2 Brussels Griffons (and if you know that breed, you know they don’t leave your side and know that they get a little depressed when you leave them). She not only didn’’t leave their side but showed so much love! She is now Auntie Amy to us! :)

He is a strong communicator and very friendly. He also kept the house very clean while we were away. We greatly appreciate his help and would be happy to use his services again!

Sam was wonderful with River. She was great with communication and sent frequent updates and pictures which we appreciated immensely. Having Penney come over for play dates was a bonus. We look forward to having Sam care for River again in the future. We both felt very comfortable with her which made our vacation more enjoyable!

About: I moved to Maine from Vermont in 2019 and looking for new pets to sit! I've grown up with dogs my whole life - I'm definitely a dog person! I enjoy all types of dogs, big or small, the more energy the better! I can run with your dog, take them to the dog park to get some energy out, and keep them company while you're away. I'm a patient and easy-going guy, a personality that clicks well with most dogs! I've grown up with West Highland White Terriers, Rottweilers, and Labradors specifically, but I have experience with many breeds. I used to volunteer at the Greyhound Shelter in Saint Albans, VT when I went to school there! Dogs are like furry people to me with so much love to give. Anything that gets our dog outside and moving, count me in! I am easily able to incorporate pet care into my routine as I work for myself and I have a remote job, so I can make time easily! I have a small backyard space that I can bring the dogs to as well as many local dog park options a short drive away!

About: Longtime dog lover and owner, current parent of a 9-year-old Siberian Husky service dog whom I trained to myself. I love dogs of all sizes and shapes and personalities and I can't wait to meet all the wonderful furkids that I'll be looking after in the future. I'm always telling people "I may have trouble remembering your name, but I will always remember your pet's name." Though I am small in stature I'm actually quite strong and can handle large/muscular dogs (and the occasional feral cat when necessary), because I just know how to move with them/guide them. I'm also not intimidated by aggressive behavior in animals, nor do I meet it with aggression in return. I always try to calm the animal and figure out the issue, putting myself between them and anyone/anything that might upset them further. I have a personality/presence that dogs seem to love, from the timid to the social, the calm to the active. I'm a fast walker, so your dog will certainly get a workout they'll love as they keep pace with me, but I can also meander when needed for the older dogs and fumbling puppies. I have experience doing basic grooming for dogs: bathing, brushing, shaving away mats, clipping nails, trimming the fur between pawpads, brushing teeth, and cleaning ears. I do not have experience doing "style" cuts for dogs. I know snake pet care as well, so feel free to inquire if you need someone to look after your danger noodle! Pet care is my primary work focus right now as I work through completing my online schooling towards getting my degree and Vet Tech licence. I have a backyard for your dog to play in alongside my very friendly Husky. It's not fenced in, but I keep a spare long-lead on-hand, same kind as I use for my girl, for guest dogs. If your dog is an especially strong one please let me know and I'll make sure to have an lead appropriate for your dogs weight strength available. Inside the house is dog-friendly and spacious, and I can crate your dog if needed. My dog is allowed on the couch and my bed, so do let me know if those are no-go areas for your dog. If your cat likes outside time I can provide walks and/or put them out in the backyard on the spare long-lead.

Jay stayed with my dog Lucy while I went on a business trip across the country and she was so wonderful with my sweet old girl. She was very curious about Lucy’s needs and communicated with me and shared some pictures along the way. I came home to a happy dog and I’m so grateful to Jay for taking such good care of her!

Celine is such a fabulous sitter. She takes great care of our two pups - in all the updates and photos she sends, they look happy as can be. She leaves the house tidy, sends regular notes about their day, and is super responsive and communicative. We feel really lucky to have her looking after our little ones - thanks, Celine, for all that you do!

Amy was a wonderful cat sitter! She communicated consistently throughout our time away and provided frequent updates and adorable pictures, which gave us such peace of mind. She made sure our kitty received plenty of love, pets, and snuggles, and it was clear that he was very well cared for while we were gone. Amy also kept his area clean, made sure his water bowls were filled, and took great care of his litter box. We truly appreciated how attentive and thoughtful she was. We would absolutely recommend Amy and will definitely reach out to her again for future sitting needs!

Sami did a great job of communicating with us while watching Jack and Penny. The house and the dogs were all in great shape when we returned. There was a mishap with a tent because of strong winds from a storm and Sami checked with us to see if we needed them to do anything to take care of the situation. We really appreciated that. The dogs were tired and happy when we got home which is always a great sign of a sitter taking the time to exercise them. We were very pleased with our visit and the ability to get away without worry. Sami even stripped the sheets from the bed!!

Shirley is truly wonderful, I am so grateful we found her! She spent the entire day and evening with our pups (one who couldn’t be left alone), and it gave me such peace of mind to know they were being cared for by someone who clearly loves animals and is kind, thoughtful, attuned to their needs - everything you’d hope for in a pet sitter. Shirley is communicative, super friendly, professional, and a lovely person. I look forward to having her hang out with our pups again, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

Tiffany was great! We had a special situation where our dog had just had TPLO surgery and he needed to stay at home supervised at all times, but we had to go to a family BBQ. He can be reactive with people who push his boundaries or have the wrong body language, so she came over for a meet and greet (it went great, he turned into a puddle for her), and then she "house sat" for us for 7 hours, keeping him calm and happy and still while we were gone. Never had to use rover for dog-babysitting but was glad she helped me figure it out!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Steph! She went truly above and beyond while we were away visiting family. She took on extra house responsibilities with such grace, gave Gatsby exceptional care (especially when he experienced a scary seizure), and made sure everything was taken care of while we were gone. After a long day of flying across the country, I came home to an incredibly clean and welcoming house. It was very clear that Steph did so much extra without ever being asked. What I appreciate most is the peace of mind she gives us. I was able to fully enjoy my time with family and stay present without constantly worrying or checking in because I completely trust her. Steph is reliable, thoughtful, compassionate, and truly treats our home and pet with care. We have used her multiple times, and each experience has been wonderful. We are so grateful to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who goes above and beyond!
