“My little Saga was a happy camper at Cindy’s during her very first time away from family, during an extended holiday stay. Saga seems to have adapted well, and befriended other dogs during her stay, which I got a glimpse of from the photos Cindy shared. Saga came home clean (Cindy gave her a bath the day before our reunion) and a little baggie of holiday treats. Thanks so much for taking such good care of Saga.”
“Khaila took great care of our pup, Chuck! She sent us a little picture or video everyday which gave us a lot of peace of mind. 100% recommend and we will be working with her again!”
“Laney was very accommodating of my two Huskies. I've been looking a long time to find not only a sitter, but one that would take good care of my pups and not be worried about their behavior. Although my boys are somewhat trained and are good with other dogs and kids, not everyone is willing to watch two Huskies! She also showed good care and is knowledgeable of training. I will definitely coming back!”
“Seth was great with communication and took excellent care of our dog! We were confident that he was being well cared for. Seth did all kinds of fun outings to exercise our pet, and we will definitely try to book a stay there again soon.”
“Kimberly did an amazing job boarding Fenway for 6 days! She took such great care of him and gave me awesome updates throughout his stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Fenway was clearly well loved and comfortable with her. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Janice was wonderful. She accommodated us when we needed to make changes to our booking. She sent pictures and let us know how Sophia was doing. Sophia took to Janice immediately. She was exceptional in every way. We highly recommend her services.”
“Emily and Kieran were the best dog watchers! Their dog Leon is so chill and playful with our pup, Roscoe. They did two walks a day and outdoor play was easy with a doggy door. We received daily updates. So grateful to have Roscoe in good hands while we were away.”
“Emily was great! She was available super last minute when we needed someone to watch our cat for the day and was great at communicating. She sent regular updates throughout the day and our cat was in a great mood when we picked him up!”
“Jaclyn and her husband Eric are amazing dog sitters! We received pictures and video updates multiple times throughout Sam’s stay. Sam is a very high energy dog and they made it a priority that he got outside for lots of exercise everyday. Sam came home tired, happy, and clean.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and they always make life much more fun, caring for animals is my whole life, there’s nothing I enjoy more. The days I am available I will be with the dogs all day, and always going on walks, along with my Italian greyhound. I will work my schedule around the times i schedule with the animals. In my home i take the dogs out as much as the clients want, I provide comfort and i nice peaceful place for the animal to hangout!
“Stefany was amazing. She accepted my last minute request and responded to all my messages very quickly. She gave me lots of updates and bonded immediately with my dog, even though he can be picky about people sometimes. Would recommend for anyone who needs a dog sitter in Maine!”
“Katherine did an amazing job with Boone. He was well rested and not anxious at all when I picked him up. She was very flexible and communicative during his stay. I was very happy!”
“Amanda and Austin did a wonderful job taking care of my pup. Lots of play time in the yard with photos and updates. I could tell when I picked up Meadow that she was glowing and content. Very grateful for the care 😊🌸🌸🌸”

Pet 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!

There are 298 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Scarborough. About 96% of Scarborough sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
