Dog Boarding South China

“Katie was very sweet and patient! She kept me updated and sent pics every day! My dog seemed happy and comfortable around her and her dogs! Would highly recommend!”

“Jacqueline was a great sitter! Bibi had a wonderful time with her and would definitely book again next time we’re in town!”

Roxana R.

“Alex was so great with my dog Cora! She's a newly adopted rescue, so I was nervous about how she would handle a new place/person but Alex helped her settle right in. She even made a few new doggy friends while she was there! Alex kept me updated on her & sent me pics, which definitely helped with my anxiety about her adjusting. I will definitely be booking Alex again next time I have to go out of town.”

“Lindsay was so amazing with our St Bernard. This was the first time we ever left him with a sitter and she kept us in constant contact. She sent us daily updates and pictures and if we had any questions she replied immediately. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her service.”

“Christina was incredible. My boxer Logan is my best friend. We are very connected and I dreaded leaving him in someone else’s care for the weekend. But after a meet and greet with Christina I knew that Logan was being left in the best hands possible. And now that we’re at home on the couch, I know for sure he was in the best hands possible. This dog rarely lacks energy, and he’s cuddled up with me snoring. He didn’t want to leave Christina’s when I picked him up which I’ve never seen him do before. Christina provided pictures and multiple updates to ensure us Logan was doing well. Logan was bummed his vacation had come to an end! Thanks so much Christina!!!”

About: Since becoming fully remote for my full time job in 2020, I have taken on the roll of “trusted pet-sitter” for over 30 families and almost 50 furry friends. Back home in Maryland, I connected with these families just through word-of-mouth and referrals from happy families. Now that I live here in Maine, I would like to continue my expertise and passion for animals, and connect with some loveable furry friends. I am an attentive, detail-oriented pet-sitter, who also knows the importance of respecting another person’s living space and maintaining routines for pets. After years of taking care of every size, shape and age of dog, no request from the owner is too wacky. From complicated medication directions to particular night time routines, I know your pet is part of your family and deserves to go about life as usual, despite mom/dad not being home. Reach out, I would love to connect! I work full-time fully remote! So while I will need WiFi and a desk to type on my laptop while I watch your pet, there is always time for walks, snuggles and whatever else your pet needs. My goal when I pet sit is to keep the pet in its normal environment and routine as much as possible. I am always very clean and respectful of any house I pet sit in.

“Blair was so amazing with my girl Bailey! Will definitely be booking with her again as needed! She communicated seamlessly and was constantly updating me with pictures. 10/10 boarding experience with Blair”

“Rose was great! We set up a meet and greet before boarding our pup to make sure it was a good fit for everyone. Our pup, Rowan, stayed with Rose for two nights and seemed to be right at home. Rose kept in touch with us and sent us several pictures. Would be happy to have our pup stay there again!”

“Erin was amazing as always! Took great care of my pups and bathed and groomed them too. They love visiting her and her furry and not so furry family!”

“Marissa was fantastic! She went above and beyond for our dogs and took such good care of them. She sent photos every day. She took them for walks and swims and gave them extra love and the best care. She was extremely responsive, and I would give her 10 stars if I could! I hope to use her again in the future!”

Jaimee S.

“Micheala was fantastic with my dogs. They got to be part of her family for a week long vacation. They had plenty of room to roam about and fun playing with her family. Will definitely book again! ~ Michaela was also very accommodating with my flaky schedule!!! Thanks again!!”

About: I’ve always grown up with a dog in my home. I have experience handling a variety breeds of all sizes, from a small 20lb Cairn Terrier to a 185lb Boerboel! I also have experience administering medication which included oral consumption as well as shots. I have been very reliable to my close family members and friends to take care of their dogs and cats when they are working or away on vacation! Aside from Rover’s guarantee , I am also separately insured to give you an extra ease of mind when choosing me for your sitting needs! Pricing: Please understand pricing is non-negotiable. Prices shown on Rover are accurate and up to date (as of March 2026). Initial pricing shown during search is a base rate - additional rates may apply depending on times/ animals that are needing care. An accurate quote will be provided after submitting a request. I do not offer discounts at this time, thank you for understanding! *Schedule update as of June 2026* House Sitting Requests: Please keep in mind that I am catering to repeat clients I have throughout the week day, as well as a part-time in person job! Depending on my schedule, I may not be at your home 24/7, however, I guarantee your pets won’t be alone longer than 6 hours at a time, unless stated otherwise. Please clearly state your pets needs, including the time and duration they can be alone - in the event other arrangements need to be made for mid day potty breaks. My coming and going schedule can likely be provided upon request. For clients who allow my partner to join me on my sittings (who is insured under my private sittings insurance), there is the ability to offer more frequent potty breaks as him and I typically work opposite schedules. No other guests/ friends/ family will ever join me during a dog sitting. Constant Care: Constant care is applied to any sitting that doesn’t allow me to leave for more than 4 hours of the day, per day. Constant care rates start at $200/ night (additional rates still apply) and increase based off of pet’s needs. Please understand this service may not always be available and interferes with ongoing mid day clients, as well as my availability for my other job. Price reflects alternative arrangements I need to make for existing clients. If you have any questions regarding this, please reach out! I currently only allow one family for boarding at a time. Prices reflect solo care and not having to worry about exposure to other dogs during their stay. I currently have one cat in the home - a 12 year old Maine Coon mix who is very relaxed and tends to mind her own business. Between my boyfriend and I, there is always someone on property, so potty breaks can be provided frequently!

About: I have always worked with dogs. I have a specialty in dog grooming and can add that service if requested. I care for dogs like they are my family because they are. I work full time in my grooming business I am flexible and will do my best to fit anyone in to make sure their animals are well cared for in all capacity I have an outdoor kennel and grooming station in my home I have a big backyard and animals safety and care is always my top priority.

About: Taking care of beloved pets is taking care of pet owners. Relaxing time away can only happen if you can trust that your pets are loved and taken care of almost as good as you😊 I have had a variety of pets my entire life. Friends, neighbors and family have trusted me to take excellent care of their pets. I have gone to their home, they have come to my home and I have visited just to walk them. I love all animals and have learned over the years how to recognize their individual needs. We have a quiet space with lots of grass and woods for playing. My groomer told me there is a need for pet care and I want more pets in my life, so this is perfect for me. I work closely with pet parents to make sure your pet has everything they need to feel right at home. We are outside a lot! I love to walk in all kinds of weather and I love to play outside whenever possible. In addition, I love farm animals too! Your pets are safe in my back yard. I always go outside with the pets and will use a leash if need be. I make pets feel right at home inside our home as well. I have an active schedule, so contact me early if you will be requesting pet care!💕😊 Your pet is always my priority while in my care. I am open to requests for your special pet. I play outside a lot. It’s my favorite! I also take lots of pictures and give plenty of treats.

“Tanya did such an amazing job! I will definitely use her again. She took my sweet boy in over Christmas and really went above and beyond to make him feel at home.”

“Melanie provided a safe, nurturing environment for our Lucy. She was warm and welcoming when we met, and clearly gave Lucy lots of love while she was in her care. She has a large yard for dogs to play. She sent me pictures every day, both of Lucy playing with the other dogs, as well as relaxing. I felt completely confident that Lucy was in the best of hands!”

Ron M.

“Wendy provided a loving home for our pup, Freddy, during extended travel for our family. Wendy's dog Elka was an instant friend to Freddy and knowing that he was safe, busy and receiving wonderful care took away a lot of anxiety. We look forward to Freddy staying with Wendy again in the future.”
