“Heather always takes great care of my dog Dilly! It’s comforting to know that Dilly is safe and happy at her home overnight. Plus Dilly gets to socialize with other dogs which is great for her. Heather sends updates and pictures throughout her stay. It’s easy to book, especially last minute, and she always responds quickly on the App. Highly recommend. Thanks for taking great care of my girl!”
“I couldn't be more grateful to this wonderful couple for taking care of my pup! They made him feel right at home, treating him like one of their own. It was clear they gave him tons of love and attention. Sending me pictures to let me see all the fun he was having. Thank you for making him feel so comfortable and cared for — I’ll definitely be coming back next time I need a sitter!”
“My puppy Fen had a great time with Emily and her family! Their space is really nice and especially wonderful with the fenced-in backyard. Emily and her husband Andy were warm and welcoming and had two other dogs who were very friendly and provided great socialization for my dog. I felt very comfortable leaving Fen with them for the two nights that I was away. They took such good care of him! I highly recommend and will be booking again when in the area!”
“I was nervous about leaving Kobe with anyone who wasn't a family member. After contacting Gabrielle she invited us to a meet and greet. Kobe had a great time and was well taken care of by Gabrielle. She sent me updates and pictures the entire time that he was in her care. I would definitely leave Kobe with her again!”
“Ashley took care of our dog Bailey for a week while we were at a rental house nearby in coastal Maine. She works from home, so our pet was rarely left alone. He was kept inside and got lots of attention, he was not left outside in a fenced enclosure all day alone. She took great care of Bailey with multiple daily walks and lots of TLC. Like many dogs ours does not like thunder and she comforted him during the storm. There were lots of updates and photos. A Rover sitter may be more expensive than a local Kennel, or boarding at the Vets office - but the service is far superior and worth the cost. Other family members boarded their dogs this same week and their animals were caged most of the time and came back dirty and matted. Using Rover (and especially Ashley) is the right choice for any pet that is considered a member of the family.”
“Andrea was very friendly and professional. She took care of Bailey like he was her own. She sent me updates of his stay frequently. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for puppy or doggy care. She was amazing!”
“Kim was wonderful and went above and beyond to make Ronin and Winnie comfortable. They had a great stay. She sent pictures and updates frequently. I highly recommend Kim!”
“Amanda was amazing and we couldn't be more pleased with our experience with her services. She went above and beyond out expectations. Our black lab was under the weather when Amanda took care of her and she took so much extra care and was thoughtful in ways we didn't even think of. It made a big difference and we're so grateful to Amanda. We'd recommend her without any reservation and look forward to having her take care of our dog again!”
“My pup Jasper loves spending time with Tami and her family. They are so great with him. I never have to worry when Jasper stays over. She sends updates and pictures to easy any worries. She is an amazing sitter.”
“Becky was great. She accepted the booking quickly and communicated well throughout. The photos showed a group of very happy dogs - these are some of my favorite photos of my little guy. My dog can't bear to be left alone and is a sweet but insistent snuggler. He also gets the zoomies when he is nervous. She welcomed him with open arms and settled him quickly. She was sorry to see him leave, but he will definitely be back!”
“Noreen is the absolute best! She took such great care of our large dog while we were away, sending pictures and updates which kept the family happy while we missed our boy. Not only was she incredibly great to our boy and us and a great communicator, but she also showed great patience for me and was incredibly flexible. We were so lucky to have found her!”
“Our puppy had a great stay with Katie while we travelled out of state! She was well taken care of and came back tired from playing with other puppy and kitty friends. We would definitely recommend Katie, thank you!”
About: With a lifelong love for animals and experience caring for both household pets and farm animals, I treat your pets with the same attention and affection you would. My goal is to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I am a self-employed designer/printer, so my schedule is very flexible and adjustable based on your/your pets' needs. I am also single, so I do not have any other prior commitments other than work, and I do not have any pets of my own, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I typically housesit/farm-sit, and I seek to adhere to the owners' standards. I am attentive to schedules, tasks & chores, and the pets' attention & affection needs. I keep a clean environment, and I make sure that the owner's home is in the same shape as when they left it.
“Brihana is amazing!! I could tell my pup had a great time, because every picture sent she looked so happy! Brihana gave the perfect amount of updates and photos, has great clean home, and big yard for dogs. Overall Brihana is an awesome and very caring person. I hope to have her watch my dog again!! ?”
“Fun and friendly environment and Julie and her family obviously love the doggies. I'm already booked for 2 more stays. The big fenced yard is a huge bonus for dogs to get out and play! Thank you Julie!”

“Charles went well beyond our expectations when caring for our 3 large dogs, house cat, barn cat, and numerous chickens too. It was evident that he genuinely wanted the best for all our animals and we would ask him to housesit/petsit again in a heart beat... in fact, we sincerely hope Charles is always available when we need to go out of town. No one I'd rather trust our home and pets to than Charles.”
