Personalized care for your dog or cat - Bar Harbor

“Our 11 month old, rambunctious cavalier King Charles spaniel had a wonderful vacation with Emily and Leroy! She went to the beach, on wonderful walks, and had great lap naps. She will definitely be back to visit her new friends the next time we go out of town.”

“Debbie watched our dog on two days while we enjoyed the park and Bar Harbor. She has a perfect setup at her new home for taking care of your dog. She sent pictures throughout the day and was very considerate of my dog’s needs and making sure she was comfortable. Definitely recommend to others!”

Kim H.

“We contacted Karen about watching our dogs we while we went whale watching. She was very easy to work with and very accommodating. She had our dog from 1 pm until 8 pm. We met at a halfway point for drop off and she returned the dog to us at the port in downtown Bar Harbor. She could not have been more accommodating aa our boat was a little bit late getting back into port. She is very nice and seems to genuinely care about the animals she watches. She sent me pictures throughout the day and text message updates. I would definitely recommend Karen and I would use her again. You do not need to have any worries about leaving your pet in her care. Thank you Karen.”

“We couldn’t have been happier boarding with Charlotte while we were visiting Acadia! She’s a lovely person and gave our lab, Mabel, exactly the home away from home experience we hoped for (and arguably even more fun!) We didn’t have a moment’s worry knowing that Mabel was in the best of hands. We will definitely be back!”

Kati G.

“Meghan did an amazing job checking in on our cat while we were away! She was professional, kept our house clean, and most importantly, our cat was happy and comfortable. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I have had numerous cats throughout my life. Currently, I have one Maine Coon named Melvin that is over 15 years old. We just lost his sister Meatball about 6 months ago so my focus has been on giving Melvin the best quality of life possible. I would love to be able to do the same for your cat(s)!

“Lise took excellent care of our big coon cat while we were away. She checked in with us daily, sent photos, and clearly spent a great deal of time interacting with him. Knowing he was being well cared-for was very reassuring and we couldn't have been happier on our return. She was also very respectful of our home and left it immaculate. We've already booked Lise for a week-long stay next month, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

Joanna A.

“Andie was so helpful to us when we needed help with our dog Oscar. It is easy to see her love for animals. We can’t wait to use her again!”

Jessica S.

“Kirk was an awesome pet-sitter. He was on-time and attentive to our two cats, and was diligent in providing updates and photos for each visit. We'd definitely book with him again.”

Mike G.

“Julia took very well care of our cats! This was our first time using the Rover app, and it can be difficult welcoming a stranger into your home. Julia was very welcoming and kind that it made us comfortable. We were gone for 2 1/2 weeks and she was responsive and detailed in her visits. We will definitely use Julia in the future for any cat sitting needs!”

Emma V.

“Charlotte did an amazing job watching our kitties while we were away! We would highly recommend her to take care of your furry friends!”

About: I’ve taken care of various animals since I was 13, including dogs, cats, and a hedgehog. I’m experienced in walking, grooming, and caretaking of smaller to medium sized animals. I’m also very comfortable with senior care through first hand experience with my own elderly pets, including three dogs, two cats. Two of them being dachshunds. I’m currently working-part time. I have a block schedule with classes on Monday/Tuesday/Friday, leaving me with ample hour long breaks between, with mostly evening classes, so I should have plenty of time with your pets! I love walking dogs, keeping things clean, and paying attention to your pets needs. When I house sit, I keep their feeding schedules on track, give any medication, and spend time with them in the way that makes them most comfortable. My own dog isn’t big on cuddling, but I’ve spent time with dogs that need that extra love and I will base that on their cues!

“Kelly did a great job taking care of my 2 cats while I was away! I really appreciated the notes from each day, letting me know that she had been there and everything was ok.”

Jennifer A.

“Megan was great, very communicative and I appreciated all the pictures and updates she sent. The house was all taken care of, and my girls were happy - just the peace of mind I needed when working with a pet sitter.”

I enjoy staying active and love spending my free time walking, playing with, and caring for pets while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel as stress-free as possible while you’re away. I’m attentive, reliable, and experienced caring for pets with different energy levels and temperaments.I’ll provide a calm, clean, loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and updates for peace of mind.

About: Hello! I'm Ashley. I am 35 years old. I am from Stuart, FL. I will be returning to work and live in Bar Harbor, ME for the fall season from Sept 22 through December 1, 2026. I have always been an animal lover and if I could afford a farm and have every type of animal in it... I would. I have owned, dogs, fish, and birds. I have had dogs most of my life. I had a Jack Russell who lived to be 11 years old named Romeo...He was a ball of energy, he had eye problems and needed drops daily. I also had a Rat Terrier named Oliver, we bought him at a year old. He lived to be 14 years old. Most recently my sister currently has a mini golden doodle, who is 4 years old. I loved taking my dogs on the trails in the parks. If I didn’t travel so much, I would love a dog of my own. I work seasonal contract jobs outside the National parks, mainly in the summer season. I go walking everyday & I would love to bring your pup with me. I am renting a shared apartment so I will not be able to bring them to my place. I will happily come to your hotel or house!

“We used Kirk when traveling to Maine and he was highly responsive and professional with all communication leading up to the trip. I felt my dogs were well cared for in a strange place and would not hesitate to use him again.”

Reedie K.

“Andie is wonderful! We hired her while on vacation in Bar Harbor. She came by 3 times to walk our dog, Penelope, and stay with her while we were out to eat. (Penelope can’t stay alone at a rental because she won’t stop barking and howling when alone in strange places). Andie was punctual, flexible, and a great communicator. She sent us pictures while she was dog sitting. Our dog did great with Andie and we are so happy to have left Penelope in such great hands.”

About: Hello! I'm Jess - I'm originally from Northern California and moved to Maine in 2025. Growing up I always had dogs (and sometimes cats), and learned to take care of pets from a young age. I was the go-to person in my neighborhood for petsitting, drop-in visits and dog-walking. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies! I'm now a full time pet-sitter! I am available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and long-term petsitting in your home. Additionally, I'm available for dog walking during the daytime. I love making every animal feel cared for - from playing with them, going on long walks outside, providing pets and cuddles, giving them occasional treats, etc. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also love to send little text and video updates, so you can check in on them while you're away. I've even done FaceTimes with pets and their owners!
