“We could not ask for a better dog sitter for our good boy! Elisabeth is truly a little dog whisperer—so caring, patient, and incredibly attentive to every detail. From the moment I met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs and understands their individual personalities and needs. She keeps us updated with lots of adorable photos and makes sure our dog felt completely at home, relaxed, and loved. The fun adventures she took them on made it feel like a real doggy vacation, not just a stay. Our dog comes home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It gives us total peace of mind to know our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We will 100% continue to book with Elisabeth again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter! 🐾💛”
“Kelly was amazing. We knew Chico would be in good hands right when we met Kelly and throughout his stay she sent updates and pictures. He had a great time and we would highly recommend Kelly.”
“Claudia and Jason were wonderful with Lawson! They kept me updated throughout the day with plenty of pictures and details about their activities. Their attention to detail was exceptional, and they made sure Lawson was comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely recommend them to friends!”
“Anne was just wonderful..very caring and loving. We received pictures daily so we could see our sweet boy. We were able to enjoy our mini vacation with no worries! Thank you Anne!!!!”
“Neil and Abby were great. Good communication and our dog was very happy there - lots of good play time with their dog Molly. Would definitely have Delta board with them again in the future!”
About: Lifelong dog lover with plenty of availability for long morning walks. I am a current medical student with a flexible schedule, available for last‑minute walks or overnight stays for the right family. I look forward to getting to know you! I’m a first‑year medical student currently on summer vacation, which gives me plenty of free time throughout the week. I’m available for both morning and afternoon walks, depending on what your dog needs. My days are flexible, so I can easily fit regular weekly walks or occasional check‑ins into my routine. I care for pets in their own home so they can stick to their normal routine. I handle feeding, walks, and any instructions you leave, and make sure your dog gets steady attention throughout the day. My focus is keeping things calm, consistent, and comfortable for your pup.
“I’m so happy we found Sergey at the last minute. My two dogs stayed with Sergey’s for six nights. They came home tired, happy, and clean. Sergey was extremely flexible with our timing when our travel was delayed. I would not hesitate to recommend Sergey as a pet sitter.”
“Trisha is very kind and flexible, and I felt very reassured to leave my somewhat nervous little dog with her for her first time away from family members. She is communicative with pictures and prompt responses. Best of all, I felt like she appreciated my furry friend!”
“I will definitely reach out to Christina for any care for my pup. Her communication and attention to my dog was unmatched and I’m sure my dog will be excited to see her again!”
“First of all, let me start by saying this couple is by far one of the nicest families I’ve met out here. Last minute booking and they welcomed my pup with open arms. Cassidy and Cody kept me up to snuff with day to day life while I was away and even sent pictures of them on adventures. They took great care of my pup and their sweet kids spoiled him with hourly cuddles and brushes so he came home looking like a million bucks. Thank you to the entire family for taking such great care of my boy. Aloha”
“Heidi was responsive, organized, and flexible with our changing schedule due to weather. Hank was well-cared for in our absence and we would definitely leave him with Heidi again.”
“Carmen was incredibly attentive and good with goose! I came home to a happy cat and received many pictures throughout the stay - she also went above and beyond and cleaned her litter box completely, as well as her food dishes! Id absolutely book with Carmen again.”
“Kseniia was amazing with our dog. It was his first time being away from us for an extended period of time and she went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. He was def on high alter in a new place, but she was so patient with him! I also really appreciated the daily pics and videos and her patience with us as our flights got changed and cancelled multiple times.”
“Vicky did an excellent job taking care of Harriet. She took Harriet for lots of walks on nearby trails and sent us multiple photos over the weekend. I highly recommend Vicky!”
“We always go with Molly when we are heading out of town! She is quick to respond, super responsible, and truly does a wonderful job taking care of our dog. He is always happy to get there! Her own dogs are super cute and pleasant to be around. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Elvis had an AWESOME time with Christine and I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. She frequently sent photos of him and he always looked comfortable and happy. I will definitely be bringing Elvis to Christine again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Scarborough
We recently were away on vacation and were very excited that our Maizy girl could go on her vacation at Rachael’s - again!! There is nothing like being away and knowing our furry girl is having as much fun as us. Lots of good walks & snuggles. As always, Rachael provided lots of photos through out Maizy’s stay. Maizy needs meds on a particular schedule & Rachael always follows through. Thank you Rachael for another fabulous vaca for our girl! See you soon!
Anne was very accommodating to last minute adjustments in my schedule when I needed to drop off and pick up my dog, Bee. She was prompt in updating me on how Bee was settling in and getting along with her dog. Anne provided a comfortable place for Bee to spend a couple of days - I’d definitely rebook with her in the future!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
97% of Scarborough sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Scarborough landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Scarborough home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Scarborough.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Scarborough sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ME ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
