“I’m very happy with Bear’s stay with Christina! He seemed very happy and well cared for when I picked him up, and her updates were very helpful. She took the most beautiful pictures of Bear for his check in! I already have plans to have Christina keep him again in the future.”
“Megan was amazing with my two little pups! They usually have some separation anxiety but they loved her and no issues at all! She was so communicative as well and responded promptly. I highly recommend!”
“I felt that Alex took care of our puppy like it was her own. He was tuckered out at the end of the day and got to meet other farm animals, which was great! It’s a great opportunity for us to socialize our puppy, in a safe environment. Definitely will continue bringing our pup to Alex!”
“Caroline did a wonderful job with our goldendoodle Ollie. I had to leave for a family emergency and at a moment's notice Caroline was able to care for my very energetic goldendoodle puppy for five days and nights. I got plenty of updates and Ollie seemed very happy when we picked him up. Would definitely recommend and plan on using her services again!”
“Great communication beforehand and through the day, and then a delightful summary of the day when we picked Tessa up. We were especially grateful for Ilsa's willingness to keep Tessa into the evening so we could have dinner with relatives some distance away.”
“Thank you much Madelyn the twenty on the table was for you when come get Dory tomorrow take it thank you again”
“Nikki is very friendly, home environment ideal for any pet. My Peanut had a blast with her dog. Nikki kept me up to date with walks and pictures. I would highly recommend!!”
“Clifford has been staying with Charles and Christina, while I've been at work, the past few months. Not one complaint. Nothing but compliments (and a whole lot of them) about the way the take care of my best buddy. I wouldn't go to anyone else to take care of my pup”
“Can't recommend Erin enough—we felt like we were leaving Friday with an old friend! She responded to us instantly and was able to fit Friday into her schedule last minute. She went above and beyond to make sure that Friday was comfortable and well taken care of during the day. To top it off, we received so many fantastic photographs. We will definitely be reaching out again once we are back in Waterville. You can't go wrong with Erin and her friendly pack of dogs!”
“Marissa watched our dogs when we went skiing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them with her! They had a great time at her house and she sent us pictures of their day. She was incredibly nice and we will definitely reach out again!!”
About: People say I am an animal whisper. Specifically pets. However, I don’t consider myself a whisperer. I call it RESPECT. I treat any animal like it’s my own (I have 5) and I get on the same level with the furry friend (both literally and intellectually). And yes, people may think I’m weird because I talk to the animals out loud but I believe animals who are living organisms (like people) get RESPECT! I currently work part-time. But that won’t stop me. I have 4 days off usually through out the week. Depending on my schedule I’m going to provide services on my days off of my part time job. If a time will not work for both you and me then I will make a priority to try and arrange a time to provide a service as soon as possible. I will walk your furry companions as long as you would like. If it’s really hot out no matter if it’s a short or long walk, I can bring a container and a thing of water as well as during the walk. I will provide rest breaks in the shade. Pet sitting I will play with them, make sure there food is always available (clients preference) and if they need to go out I’ll be happy to take them out.
About: I have taken care of dogs all my life. As a child-teen, I helped bring puppies to the vet every year, as well as bathing them, playing with them, and watching them. I’ve been paid to take care of multiple dogs and I volunteered in the Waterville Humane Society as an adolescent. I have lots of freedom and flexibility in my schedule. I am available all day Monday-Saturday and am willing to provide overnight care as well. I make sure that dogs in my home are fed and watered according to their normal schedule, walked, bathed when necessary, played with, and paid attention to.
“Nathan accommodated us on short notice and hosted our dog for 14 hours of daycare. He was responsive, super flexible with the long hours and early drop off, and exceedingly capable/confident with our high energy shepherd/pit mix. We highly recommend him!”
About: I have over 5 years experience on Rover and Wag, I’ve pet sat for over 15 years, I foster dogs when I’m not pet sitting, and I work from home so I can provide around the clock care! I work remotely, so when I’m pet sitting I can provide care around the clock. The pets I take care of are never alone for more than one hour. I treat all pets in my care like family. They are allowed on furniture and in beds, get plenty of time outside, and lots of cuddles.
“Very flexible and great communication. My dog was very relaxed when we picked him up. Thanks again!”
“Tiffany and Kyle were so accommodating. Coco was very happy and she wasn’t ready to go home yet as she was having such a great time with their family of two leggeds and four leggeds. Definitely recommend them!”
About: I have taken care of all different types of dogs, from puppies to seniors, and I always make sure to give them plenty of love and lots of attention! I’m currently a part time student, and I have quite a bit of free time. I am very flexible during the week and some weekends as well. I have a yard as well as a few walking trails nearby. My room is large and there is plenty of space and friendly faces around.
“Larissa was awesome! My dog had such a great time. Will definetely ne back if we are in the area again! Thanks!”
“Nancy was great! We are traveling through Bingham and needed a sitter while we rafted the Kennebec. We appreciated her responsiveness and the tips on local places. Most especially we appreciated that she decided to drive the dogs back to our campsite while she was out enjoying the Fall colors. Thanks so much!”
About: I have owned and taken care of dogs almost all of my life, I have experience with puppies and old dogs. I have a large private property with a long dirt road for long walks, and a fenced in front yard . Dogs really love it here. I am a retired school teacher with lots of energy and time to spend with your furry family member. There is plenty of love and fun times to be shared here, I have 23 acres for long walks, a fenced in front yard and a lake to swim and chase balls. I also have a large deck for drying off before coming inside. Your dog will love it here!

“Hallie is the most dependable person that you could ask for! She loves animals and would be perfect for this job! She has helped me with my dog Neiko whenever I have needed it and she truly loves him! She is incredibly honest and responsible and I can't say enough good about her. You would be lucky to have her look after your pet!”

14. Kathleen P.
“My Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Arrow, is a hunting dog through and through—needs to run, stretch his legs, and burn off that energy. Kathleen makes sure he gets all the exercise he needs, and he always comes back happy, well-fed, and lookin’ like he just had the best day ever. Then there’s Doug, my American Bulldog. He’s a good boy, but he’s had his fair share of… “indoor mishaps.” And he doesn’t always play nice with other dogs. But somehow, Kathleen’s got him safely visiting dog parks and, believe it or not, he’s had way fewer accidents. Didn’t think an old dog could learn new tricks, but Kathleen proved me wrong. If you need someone who truly knows and loves dogs, Kathleen’s the one. She’s done wonders for mine, and I couldn’t recommend her more! Just don't take her job away too much, I need her for my pups!”

20. Susan C.
“I cannot imagine anyone taking better care of my 13 year old English Bulldog other than Susan. I have seen her with her own and she treats mine exactly the same way. She is punctual, she gave medicine at the right times and she “talked “ to my Nalah like I do!! Nalah looks forward to seeing her whenever we have overnights set up. She takes pictures and sends them to me to make me feel at ease. “Rover” customers will love Susan as well as their pets!!”
