“We recently left our 4 1/2 month old puppy, Harry, with Michelle. We were on vacation in Maine and were not able to bring him to our rental. Michelle sent us tons of photos and gave us updates on how Harry was doing. We would recommend her to anyone looking for in home dog care in the southern Maine area. Harry was happy upon our arrival to pick him up, we are very grateful that we found Michelle on Rover!”



“Julia welcomed our puppy Riley into her home for 6 days. It was our first experience with Rover, and bringing Riley to someone's home outside of our family. We were amazed at how Riley quickly became comfortable! He was welcomed by Julia and soon learned the daily routine. Julia sent us tons of pictures - daily walks, playing with her dog, cuddling and napping. Her knowledge of puppies and training is very deep, and her quiet way was very reassuring to us, and for Riley. She even shared maps of her favorite trails so we could continue to take riley to some of his now favorite walks. We look forward to booking with Julia in the near future. She truly is a 5 star person!”


“Betty had a blast with all the holiday pups! She even got to hang out with our neighbors' dogs who were there at the same time! She is always hesitant to let me take her back home after spending time at Kane and Colette's!”



“Donna and Roland were so welcoming to our dog, Sophie! Donna was very kind and responsive throughout the whole booking process and sent us pictures while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful couple to care for our dog!”


“Ashley stands out in her commitment to true dog care, instead of only day or overnight services. She pays attention to the dog’s state of being, activity and most importantly pack dynamics. She’s fantastic with us owners too— incredibly responsive, as flexible as she can be, (I had several schedule adjustments) understanding, and just plain professional while also being a great human. Ashley delivers excellent care in a great environment!”


“Kristi was a great sitter! We boarded our dog this weekend and we really felt like he was in such good hands! Our flight was also delayed and she was so accommodating. Definitely recommend her services!”


“Emily is fantastic, and her house is a perfect pet get away! My dog was sad to leave her home which is unusual (he’s a momma’s boy). Highly recommend!”


“I was a nervous first time boarder and couldn’t have been more at ease leaving my two pups with Mike. He’s very easy going and obviously loves dogs! Mine took to him right away and I was able to enjoy a great vacation without a worry in the world!”


“Denise was great! She sent me lots of photos and videos of my dog, and he was clearly well cared for and enjoying himself. She has two sweet dogs herself and it was a wonderful environment.”


“Felicia was great, she sent a lot of updates through the day and was very responsive. We felt very assured that Cappy would be well looked after and he was”


“Laura and her family took great care of Winston! She has an amazing fenced in yard, two adorable dogs who made friends with mine, and clearly is a pet lover. She sent me lots of pics and updates. I am so glad Laura was able to watch him, and would definitely see if she was available again if I’m in the area!”


“We liked Laurie right off the bat when we did our meet and greet. We had to cancel our reservation at the last moment because our dog suffered a bad reaction to a vaccine he got the day before. Laurie was very nice about it. I’d recommend her highly. She seems really trustworthy.”


“From the photos I got from Tami, Baxter was having a great time. I really can’t thank Tami enough for taking care of Baxter for me. I was visiting from Florida for a three day weekend of partying for my grandson’s wedding. The wedding went off great and I didn’t have to worry about Baxter. It was a last minute request through Rover and Tami responded right away, even though it was a holiday weekend. Thank you so much Tami.”


“Christina is really exceptional! She took such good care of my 14-year-old labrador—sending lots of pictures during his two-night stay. My pup got to play with other dogs in the kiddy pool and then take his daily 10-hour nap. So glad I found her!”


“They were great! I got lots of updates and my dog seemed very happy when I picked her up :)”


“Courtney. Is. Great. This was the first time leaving Albie with anyone outside of family so I was pretty nervous. We went over for a meet & greet and I felt good about her right away. She is super warm and kind and her home was the perfect calm, low-key environment for my old guy. She asked a lot of questions and made me feel confident that she was going to take good care of him. Courtney sent the cutest photos while we were away, it was nice to see how relaxed and happy he was. Albie is our *everything* and I am usually pretty anxious about him... I honestly didn't worry about him at all. I wouldn't have minded knowing more about his day-to-day but I didn't want to be "that" pet parent and ask a bunch of questions. I knew he was in great hands though and I'm sure she would have been patient with my helicopter parenting, haha. So, yes, we would absolutely trust Courtney with Albie again. I highly recommend her (and Frito!)”


“Cali had a great time at Katelyn’s and was nice and worn out when we picked her up. Katelyn has great communication and was willing to accommodate our last minute booking request, which we really appreciated!”


“Michelle was great, boarding our large dog. Took care of him as family. Frequent walks, fenced yard. Photos throughout the day. Michelle demonstrates care and compassion for our pup.”


“I can’t even really begin to say how wonderful Nicole was in watching our King Charles cavalier puppy. He is still a puppy and can be very attention seeking. And Harley was so happy and content spending time with Nicole in her wonderfully dog friendly home. We had a weekend away for medical reasons of a family member and the photos and videos of Harley were incredibly reassuring so we could be attentive to our family member while knowing our puppy was well taken care of. He didn’t want to leave. We owe many thanks to Nicole for taking Harley in and treating him like one of her own. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She’s the best! ❤️.”


“Josh and Nicole were amazing and our pup loved staying with them! They took great care of her and sent us lots of pictures during her stay. We could tell she was very comfortable at their house and did not want to leave! Thank you so much Josh and Nicole!”
