“Jamie, has been awesome helping me with my girls and they love her. Her and Rhea work together to help out many local families. Thank you for your support and excellent care of my girls!”


About: I've been caring for animals my entire life, I started working at a dog kennel when I was 14 then I moved to a daycare and I also worked at a rescue. I've had lots of experience in the animal care fields, I've done bathing, nail trims, administered medication, light training, and just all around pup exercise! I've cared for senior pets as well as pups around 5-6 months. Animals are my passion and I treat each one with the respect and care they need to feel safe and comfortable while in my care. Im currently working, but I've been pet sitting for years and wanted to expand now that I have more availability. I'm home from 3:30 on and on Wednesdays and Thursdays all day. My doggies at home run and romp around during the day while I'm at work, I come home on lunch to let them all out to potty and play for a bit and then after work it's non stop until bedtime! :) I have a fenced in backyard for your pup to run and play, also an unfenced front yard for those off leash friends! I have 4 dogs of my own 2 little and 2 big, to keep your furry friends company while they stay. I have numerous crates to use if needed to make your pup comfortable. Your dogs will become my family during their stay here! I send pictures and updates of your pups during their stay, to make you feel more comfortable and see what your furry pal is up too! Having many dogs makes it hard for company but, I come right to you once you arrive, or can sometimes offer pick-up service.


“Rhea and Roman are fantastic! They got back with me promptly and were happy to help me out with last minute pet care. Roman did great medicating one of my kitties, and both Rhea and Roman went above and beyond to ensure my girls had everything they needed. I will without a doubt contact them with any future cat care needs!”


“The last time we had Katelyn take care of our boy it was planned well in advance but we had a last-minute need and she said yes! He got a nice walk & was a happy pup when we got home. Huge relief 🙂”


About: I will love your pets as if they are my own! I also am comfortable with reptile and small animal care. Having a dog of my own i know all the best adventure spots surrounding Sanford. I will work hard to make sure you and your pet are comfortable with me. I am happy to do meet and greets to better get to know each other. I am very flexible so don't be afraid to ask anything about scheduling or special needs. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I am currently available during the week for check-ins and walks. I will consider home stays depending on the circumstances. I do have flexibility around my full-time commitments. Safety and trust is of the utmost importance to me. When I am away from my pets I look forward to regular updates and pictures to make sure everything is going smoothly and I would provide the same level of care for my clients.

About: Hi! I’m Sofey, and I work as a kennel technician in Scarborough, caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities every day. I’ve spent my entire life around animals—volunteering at shelters, helping out with farm animals, and caring for everything from puppies and kittens to senior pets, including guinea pigs, rabbits, and more. I’m experienced with walking, basic training, administering meds, and handling all kinds of temperaments. I live with my own sweet dog, Freddie, and two adorable guinea pigs, so I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. Whether your pet is shy, playful, energetic, or just needs some extra love and patience, I’ve got them covered 💛 My schedule revolves around my job, which has no set days, but I work four 10-hour shifts a week, usually gone from about 6:00 AM to 5:30 PM including my commute. On my days off, I love focusing on caring for animals, whether it’s drop-ins, walks, or just spending quality time with them! I’m unable to offer pet sitting in my apartment due to a no pet policy, but I’m more than happy to pet sit in your home, stop by for walks, feeding, playtime, and whatever else your pet needs!

“Thanks Faith! I appreciate the help very much :) my only feedback would be I’d love some more photos of all the cats each day along with a little more description on how they’re doing :)”


“Dawn was absolutely amazing! She took care of our 2 fur babies with such love and care! She sent us pictures and a text every day with updates on how they were doing. I will recommend Dawn to everyone and we will absolutely book with her anytime we need to travel!! Five Stars!!!!”


About: Hello! I am a proud owner of two husky babies with my boyfriend Alex, who is now joining me on Rover. We both have experience in all types of breeds and training levels. Alex is also currently taking classes to follow his passion in becoming a high level professional dog trainer and will soon be able to take on clients. For now, we will take care of your pet like they are our own with love, proper care & responsibility - two sitters for the price of one! We just moved to the Sanford area and are looking for extra income to renovate our first home. Alex is also looking for more experience with different personalities to blend with different training levels and techniques for his certification. He will not practice any sort of training without your permission, of course! Although, with consistency and time, it is technically a free bonus for you 😉 Whether you have a fenced in yard or no yard at all, we will get the exercise in that they need depending on your approval. Walks, runs, dog parks, car rides, trips to the beach, hikes, etc. we will have a blast until you come home! If your pet(s) are staying with us, we live in a very safe area and have a large fenced in yard. Do be aware, our dogs will also be here, but they absolutely adore making new friends and are the definition of friendly.

“Katie was a pleasure to work with and took very good care of my dog. She followed every request I made and was very friendly. I'd be more than happy to have her come back and care for my pup.”


About: I’ve had cats my whole life and a little yorkie who is now with my mom. My goal is to help provide a safe and calm environment for your fur babies and give you a peace of mind that they are being given the best service possible. I work overnights so I have availability in the mornings 7:30AM-11AM on weekdays work best for me. With notice I may be able to make an exception. Let me know what your pets needs are and I will do everything I can to make them not only comfortable but feel safe with every visit.

About: With between three and four years of hands-on experience training dogs under the guidance of various professional trainers, I've developed a well-rounded approach that blends multiple techniques into my own daily structure and curriculum. This foundation in training allows me to offer more than just exercise—I provide mentally enriching experiences for the dogs in my care. In addition to training services, I offer both solo and small group hikes (up to four dogs), ensuring each dog gets personalized attention, socialization, and the physical activity they need to thrive Your dog’s well-being is my number one priority, and that extends to every part of their experience—from training and transport to time on the trail. I understand that every dog (and owner) has unique needs, so I strive to be as flexible as possible with scheduling. Whether you need regular weekly hikes or occasional help, I’m happy to work with your availability to make sure your dog gets the care, structure, and attention they deserve. My vehicle is equipped with three crash-tested crates, each securely strapped down to ensure stability and protection on the road. For dogs who prefer to ride as passengers, I also provide a dog seat belt option for a safe and comfortable journey. I keep spare leashes and muzzles in the car at all times to be prepared for any situation, ensuring every dog is transported with the highest level of care and responsibility.

“Stephanie rocks. She was friendly, responsive and thorough. She even brought homegrown catnip for our cats. When our previous sitter bailed just before Memorial Day weekend, Stephanie took over seamlessly.”


About: I’ve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember dogs, cats even bunnies and guinea pigs, i love animals they are gentle and sweet and easy to talk to. I’m currently a stay at home mom to my little one year old so I am always available days nights or weekends whenever you need. If bringing your animals here I can provide bowls for food and water you can bring your own if you would like. It’s a pretty open concept house, we have locks on cabinets so your little fur balls can’t get in

About: Ive been around animals ever since I was little and Ive been dog sitting for the past couple of years. I’ve handled dogs of different ages and personalities. Im currently working full time but I have Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays off so im free to take your pups for a walk or even do a check in! I have a 1 year old rescue who gets along well with other people and dogs. Typically he is brought for 1-2 walks each day along with day care twice a week to get some extra socialization and energy out.

About: I have had animals almost my entire life, and have been cat and/or dogsitting for the past five years. I love animals and recognize that each one comes with their own special personalities! What matters to me is not only helping your pet enjoy themselves, but easing the stress you may feel by leaving your furbaby at home. Believe me, I get it! My schedule changes weekly, so it’s totally worth it to ask! More than likely I will be able to make space for your pet’s care in my day. I am comfortable coming into your home to visit with your furbaby, and to walk them around the neighborhood. I also would love to take them on little adventures, depending on your comfort level.

From the moment Rebecca met my cats, I felt immediately comfortable with how much love and compassion she put into learning each pets unique personality and needs. What truely sets Rebecca apart is her attention to detail and empathy. She kept me informed with regular updates and photos, which gave me incredible peace of mind when I was away.
