“My pup is old and I was really worried leaving him because I feel like he's a lot of work. But Jessica is so good! She knew I was worried and sent tons of pictures and updates. I think he has a lot of fun!”
“Paige was so good with my dog Sam! She was patient with his many requests to go outside, and followed my instructions well. Most importantly, she gave Sam lots of loving attention. We will definitely leave Sam with her again if she will have him!”
“Joseph did an exemplary job watching Payton for me while I went rafting! He kept me informed of how she was doing and sent lots of pics and videos! I will definitely use him again. Thank you Joseph.”
“I am so grateful for Bethany and her family for the loving care they give to my Australian shepherd, Remi. They care for her and treat her as part of the family. My affection and confidence may best be expressed by sharing that Bethany is listed in my contacts as “ Remi’s Rover Mom. “ I highly recommend 🙂🙏🐕”
“Nancy was fantastic and so super sweet! Very responsive when we needed to communicate and easy to work with for drop off/pick up logistics. She sent us some pictures of our happy pup during our time away and we felt he was in great hands the whole time.”
“Gael and Bridget went above and beyond in caring for Coco. They took him on some fun adventures: canoeing, camping on a trampoline, hikes in the B woods etc with their own dog. .Coco was treated like a member of their family. I was so charmed and relieved to see photos and videos they sent often during our week apart. He received so much love that I wonder if he missed me as much as I missed him. I would not hesitate to schedule another home stay for him and in fact feel freer to do so now that I know he would be so well taken care of.”
About: I have had experience with pets since I was I child, my family and I love all kind of pets , I am from Costa Rica so I always had a pet in my house and around from friends and family. I am available most of the time, I am super open to work holidays, weekends and nights, just contact me before booking to check availability. I have my own farm house in Swanville Maine, a very quiet and very peaceful place without many neighbors around, perfect for pets and very near from Belfast.
“Ellie and Sarah are great! Their house has a great setup for dogs with a fenced in area in the yard. They were super responsive to my messages, provided pictures, and asked questions of their own to make sure they provided my pets with excellent care. They were also flexible with my pickup time when my travel plans changed due to weather. Would book again!”
“Tabrizia was amazing. My dog had a health crisis and Tabrizia and her husband handled it with great care and grace. They were so kind to my dog (and me). I would recommend them to anyone.”
“Nieves & Joey were AWESOME with my pup- she adored her time there, and we were very appreciative of their accommodation of an early drop off and a late pickup. Will definitely look into booking with them again!”
“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!”
About: Currently I am between caregiving clients trying to decide what my next move is. I was born into an animal loving family, extended family, etc. I am 59 years old and have never been without at least a cat or two. I've also had 2 of my own dogs since 2005. My last senior dog passed the rainbow bridge in 2024. Born in Connecticut, lived for 45 years in Maryland and now I am living in Maine where I love it! One reason I fell in love with Maine is you can bring your dog almost anywhere here. They are a pet loving no-kill state! I have administered just about every kind of pet med out there. Every single pet has their own personality and I am very patient to learn that personality so we will become friends. I have a pretty open schedule with no real deadlines, so when ever your pets need walks, feeding, medications or just spend time with them, I am there. My own pets get feed twice a day. The time varies depending on my pet sitting schedule. But usually Its about 10am and 7pm. Whatever instructions left for me for a pet sit, I will follow to the letter. I will ask questions or text later to make sure I understand everything your pet needs. I've never run into an animal not liking me, but I am very aware of them not be comfortable with me at first. That can be stressful for them of course, so its very important that their care instructions are followed to keep them as anxiety free as possible.
About: I know that every pet has their own needs and own personalities. I have been working with high energy dogs, older dogs, small dogs for years now. Remaining flexible with each individual animals needs. Friends have called me when they will be away for long weekends, I’m very flexible and am here to make sure your dogs, cats and any other pets are taken care of so you can enjoy your vacations, long weekends, nights out, whatever it may be. Hosting: We have a family of 4 as of right now and one more on the way. My wonderful husband Jase helps welcome our furry guests with an abundance of belly rubs and play time, I have a 7 year old son who adores all of the pups we welcome in and always asks if they can stay a little longer. He helps get out any of that playful energy as well! We also have a 6 year old Corgi who can be sassy and jealous at the first meet (never any bites or fights, usually just a singular jealous grumble) but after a little butt sniffing and 10 minutes of meeting the pup she is totally fine. She’s very mellow and is now warmed up to us welcoming other pups into our home. She just has to go into the grass and do a few “territory kicks” to make sure the other pup knows that “this is her house” 😂. Since we do have a kiddo and I am currently expecting we do require a short meet and greet before every overnight/extended stay for everyone’s safety. House Sitting/Cat care: Unfortunately as of right now I can’t open up my house sitting services at this time, and can only visit cats if they do not require litter box cleaning (if you have an automatic litter box I can still come check on, feed and play with kitties though)! Drop In Visits with Pups: As of right now I am still currently accepting drop in visits for now, but do also require meet and greets before drop in visits as well. Thank you for considering me to care for your pups, and I can’t wait to meet you all! I am currently working as a house cleaner. I typically work 6 hours a day (3 hours a house), having time to stop and check on doggies in between houses and in between classes as well. I have a beautiful family at home so on the weekends I typically like to spend time with them! My partner, our 7 year old son, our Corgi Coffee and I have made the decision to open our home up for boarding allowing us to all care and love on the pups while also being able to have more quality family time together. While at the home of other pets I try and make the pet feel as comfortable as possible while their owners are away, making sure to keep their routines about the same. I will have owners leave instructions of care for me, along with feeding times, if they have any silly personality traits or triggers, leave any medications they may need, etc. I always make sure to know where the food, toys, leash and treats are. In my own home, owners can bring crates if needed, animals can sleep in our bed or owners can bring their doggie beds. We have a large backyard, but it is not fenced in, we currently have one lead we use for doggies, and owners can also bring their own. Feeding time will stay to what the dogs are use to and owners should leave instructions for care/routines for me so even though they’re in a new space, they have some consistency with their schedules!
“Bailey took excellent care of our beagle Sam! He had a great time playing with the other dogs and exploring their big yard and farm fields. Bailey sent regular updates and photos so we knew Sam was happy and not missing us too much. We are so grateful to have such a great place to leave him when we travel!”
“Thank you Danielle!! Spice and Coco have indicated that they had a great time. We are so thankful to have found you! It made our trip so much easier to go worry free. The girls seemed very relaxed and every picture you sent over our trip, showed how happy they were. Your attitude during the entire stay they had, was over the top. When our return flight was canceled, and it added an extra day to our trip, you again made us feel at ease. Can't thank you enough, and would use you again on our return next summer. Pat, Sue, Spice and Coco.”
“We were in need of a replacement sitter for our dog Joey after her lifelong caregiver of 7 years retired. Lauren came through for us in a big way. Her quiet home and gentle nature were perfect for our girl and gave us peace of mind that she was in good hands while we were away visiting family. We will definitely continue to use her services going forward!”
About: I provide calm, reliable care in a quite setting. I have plenty of fenced in outdoor space for dogs to explore and get exercise. I will make sure they feel at home and well cared for. Relaxing or active your pet will enjoy their stay. I currently work as a B&B host in the summers, leaving my winters, fully open schedule wise. Hosting for over four years so I know how to make sure you get a five star experience. We have a fenced yard hard floors, dog kennels, and everything a dog would need. I have a golden retriever named Sadie, who is very sociable goes to the dog park super friendly. I work for myself managing properties and are able to bring any pets with me to job sites if needed.

“Alison was great with our three kitties! She kept us updated on how they were doing and sent pictures. We loved that she stayed at the house as they are very social indoor kitties. We would definitely use Alison again!”
“Elizabeth and Charlie were so good with my babies! It was such a relief having trustworthy folks at home with my kitties so I didn’t have to worry during my trip :) It was clear she truly cared about them and the space [they left everything so neat]. I would absolutelyy book her again!”
About: Having been a lifelong cat owner, I see each cat as an individual. I work to build trust and a sense of safety with each cat I meet. I even have experience trick training cats using positive reinforcement! I have experience administering medication!
About: Cats have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I truly understand their unique personalities and needs. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or loves attention, I'll provide patient, loving care while keeping their routine consistent. I'm experienced administering medications and will treat your cat like one of my own, giving you peace of mind while you're away.
“Hayleigh did a wonderful job with our cats. They were adopted litter mates at the age of 3 months. They have never been without us, so they were a little shy about showing themselves. Everything was done as asked, feeding, litter box, etc. Would use again if the need arises.”
“Marisol did a fantastic job taking care of my two shy kitties! I warned her that she’d probably only see them under the bed, but she sent photos of them out and about and bugging her for attention. I would definitely book again with her.”
“Bohni was a treat on all levels!!! She stayed with my cat for 3 nights and 4 days.. I think my cat likes her more. The house was better than I left it.. Angel was calm and happy.. I was able to be away from her for the first time and feel confident in her STELLAR care.. if there were 10 stars she would get them all!!!!! Got photos all well everyday!!!! Happy customer”
“Molly is wonderful! She met us beforehand and was very personable. Our fur babies mentioned how caring she was while we were gone and they really liked spending time with her. 10/10 recommend.”
“What a joy! Katie saved the day when I needed last minute Christmas cat care. She came through despite there being two snow storms! I appreciate all of the pictures she sent of Kitty Boy. She did a wonderful job keeping him fed and entertained. It was relaxing knowing he was in good hands, and equally great to come home to a spotless house and a happy cat. Thanks Katie :-)”
“After we’d stayed home all through the Covid year, Jill was the first caregiver our 2 young kitties ever had. We were nervous to leave them, especially shy Jack. Well - no worries!! Jill has a calm, gentle demeanor and both cats quickly became comfortable with her. She’s responsive, reliable, and resourceful - she even found our extra birdseed to ensure the feeder outside the window (major cat entertainment!) stayed full. We definitely would recommend Jill!”

“My dog had a great time with Lincey and her family and I received updates throughout the day confirming that she was safe and having fun. I was visiting the area for a few days and Lincey’s willingness to accept a last-minute booking made it possible for me to go kayaking secure in the knowledge that my fur-baby was well cared for and having a grand adventure of her own. Thanks Lincey!”

About: I have 20 years of hands-on animal care experience, and I actually love being around them, and putting my skills to good use. They bring me great joy, and I try to reciprocate that. I would love to work locally so I am able to work my own hours around my grandsons educational needs, while providing income by doing what I love. I have my Veterinary Assistant certificate, and have experience in applying some medications. I am aware of the drastic New England temperatures, as I've lived her all my life, and I take that into great consideration when caring for the animals entrusted in my care. I appreciate your consideration. Thank you for your time. I am available seven days a week, 24/7 I can work a schedule with you, or be on call. I will send you pictures and updates, you can call to check in at anytime at all. I have always practiced safety first when working with animals. I truly love them all, and will take necessary precautions to prevent anything negative happening. I make them feel at home while in my care, they are allowed free range of my home. I know some dogs can go unleashed, but I do NOT let them off leash while in my care. I apologize for this, but I will walk them on a leash as many times as they like!
“Jessica is an angel. We needed someone to watch two senior,…spoiled rotten,…rescue dogs for us while we visited Acadia National Park. It was a spur of the moment decision. And Jessica was there for us. Please don’t hesitate to leave your pets with Jessica. And consider yourself lucky if she’s available.”
“Such a wonderful caregiving family experience! Luna was so very well cared for and adored the attention from both the humans along with their fellow K-9 friends. Truly grateful!”
“Our two boys were well taken care of. Joseph was able to accommodate a very long day no problem. Very nice and sincere and a good space for the boys to run around in. Thank you so much!”
About: I love dogs (and cats) more than anything! I am happy to treat your fur babies to the finest care during the day, overnight, while you are on vacation, or once in awhile for walks, hikes, check ins, at your place or mine! A popular request has been from folks on vacation who need someone to hang out with their pets at their campground/rv/hotel/air bnb while they enjoy the park, biking, boating or going out to eat. Sometimes locals have important meetings or long hours out of town obligations and their pets need company. Book dog sitting/pet sitting for the day for this service! Just need a check in for food/water/potty break? Book a walk or check in! For boarding, My husband and I have a wonderful centrally located home in the Acadia region off the island.

I can be your pets chaperon then too, just ask :) Need to exercise your pup? Mini day hikes available too- custom fit for your pups comfort. Going into a second summer of pet care for the lovely pet families of MDI and Downeast Region! Taking a sabbatical from my career job while my husband and I shift our focus to starting a family.

Pups hang with me all day for a low stress, relaxing stay! Pet sitting at your home is welcome too with the same care and attention!
“Danielle welcomed Kassi into her calm home environment and took great care of her. She was responsive when we messaged her, and understanding of our fur baby’s quirks. Kassi even felt comfortable enough to eat a treat (something she never does day 1 in a new place). Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! I’m Nieves, and I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life. I have experience with small, medium, and large breeds and focus on providing loving, reliable, and attentive care. I work as a team with my roommate, Joseph Saccente, who is also an active Rover sitter. We coordinate schedules so your pet always has supervision and care. We’re generally available daily, except when fully booked or on a planned day off. Pets are welcome in our home and can relax on the couch, bed, or their own space—your choice. We have a large yard and two acres of unfenced land for supervised outdoor time. I’m happy to help with medications, vet visits, and special needs. Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins so pets get consistent attention and care throughout the day. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I work as a team with my roommate to ensure pets are always supervised. In my home and in clients’ homes, I follow instructions closely, maintain a calm environment, and provide consistent care and attention.
“She went above and beyond to give the best care possible to Romeo! She has a really great setup and in all of the photos the doggies looked like they were having a great time :) would absolutely recommend anyone coming to Maine with their dog use her services for day care”
“So happy we were able to get a last minute booking and was able to leave Mackie in such capable hands. Got feedback during the day and sitter was flexible about start and end times.”
“Maisie had such a good day with Jessica, and came back tired and happy. Jessica sent sweet photos and let me know throughout the day that Maisie was doing well. She made me feel very comfortable leaving my puppy there for the day. I definitely recommend her. Thank you so much!”
“Mazzy had a great time with Paige. It was kind of a last-minute request but she was available, which helped a lot! Place was cozy and loving humans were ready to watch Mazzy which is so appreciated. Would recommend Oaige again 🙂”
“Kyle was fantastic! Our boys were in great hands. Before we left Kyle was already playing fetch with our Aussie and later we got photos of our chihuahua sound asleep on his lap. Kyle is great at communicating and he’s extremely kind and professional. We’d absolutely use him again. Thanks, Kyle!”
“As usual- Liseli was wonderful!! We received wonderful pictures and reports. It was great being able to enjoy a day with family and know that Elvis was getting some special loving of his own!”
About: From the time I was young, I’ve always had my own animals to include cats, dogs, hamsters, mice, and into my adult life. I continue to have dogs and ferrets as well as cats. My parents have always had dogs as well and have had a few litters of puppies that I have assisted with, and my dog has had her own litter of puppies so I’m very familiar with young dogs and training and patience. I’ve never worked in a vet clinic, but I have many years of clinical experience with humans so I do have that background. I work from home Monday through Friday and my home office is in our finished basement so the dogs have their own space in the basement with food, water, toys, beds, puppy pads as well as full access to my office to come and go as they please and they just spend the day with me while I’m working. We live on the lake so we don’t have a large yard but it’s also a private road so there’s no traffic and I have an outdoor pen for the dogs but when I’m not working, I also am outside with them so they are always being watched and tended to. I will take them swimming in the lake or out on the canoe if that is something that is OK with pet parents and we do go for walks in the mornings before I start my workday and at lunchtime if the weather permits.

I'm currently only working through Rover, so my schedule is very flexible right now! I'm available for drop-ins, all-day stays and overnights, as well as for long-term pet-sitting in your home. 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!

They get fed on special foods on a schedule. When they are eating I clean their cat boxes and when they are finished, I clean their bowls. Before they begin their daily naps , I play with each of them. They range in age from 19 to 1 yr. I also check their water bowls throughout the day or night depending. I can give them treats anytime. I also have learned various medical skills and hope to go back to school for a third degree as a vet tech and if life allows veterinary practice.

“My pup is old and I was really worried leaving him because I feel like he's a lot of work. But Jessica is so good! She knew I was worried and sent tons of pictures and updates. I think he has a lot of fun!”
“Joseph did an exemplary job watching Payton for me while I went rafting! He kept me informed of how she was doing and sent lots of pics and videos! I will definitely use him again. Thank you Joseph.”
“I am so grateful for Bethany and her family for the loving care they give to my Australian shepherd, Remi. They care for her and treat her as part of the family. My affection and confidence may best be expressed by sharing that Bethany is listed in my contacts as “ Remi’s Rover Mom. “ I highly recommend 🙂🙏🐕”
“Nancy was fantastic and so super sweet! Very responsive when we needed to communicate and easy to work with for drop off/pick up logistics. She sent us some pictures of our happy pup during our time away and we felt he was in great hands the whole time.”
“Ellie and Sarah are great! Their house has a great setup for dogs with a fenced in area in the yard. They were super responsive to my messages, provided pictures, and asked questions of their own to make sure they provided my pets with excellent care. They were also flexible with my pickup time when my travel plans changed due to weather. Would book again!”
“Nieves & Joey were AWESOME with my pup- she adored her time there, and we were very appreciative of their accommodation of an early drop off and a late pickup. Will definitely look into booking with them again!”
“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!”
About: Currently I am between caregiving clients trying to decide what my next move is. I was born into an animal loving family, extended family, etc. I am 59 years old and have never been without at least a cat or two. I've also had 2 of my own dogs since 2005. My last senior dog passed the rainbow bridge in 2024. Born in Connecticut, lived for 45 years in Maryland and now I am living in Maine where I love it! One reason I fell in love with Maine is you can bring your dog almost anywhere here. They are a pet loving no-kill state! I have administered just about every kind of pet med out there. Every single pet has their own personality and I am very patient to learn that personality so we will become friends. I have a pretty open schedule with no real deadlines, so when ever your pets need walks, feeding, medications or just spend time with them, I am there. My own pets get feed twice a day. The time varies depending on my pet sitting schedule. But usually Its about 10am and 7pm. Whatever instructions left for me for a pet sit, I will follow to the letter. I will ask questions or text later to make sure I understand everything your pet needs. I've never run into an animal not liking me, but I am very aware of them not be comfortable with me at first. That can be stressful for them of course, so its very important that their care instructions are followed to keep them as anxiety free as possible.
“Bailey took excellent care of our beagle Sam! He had a great time playing with the other dogs and exploring their big yard and farm fields. Bailey sent regular updates and photos so we knew Sam was happy and not missing us too much. We are so grateful to have such a great place to leave him when we travel!”
“Thank you Danielle!! Spice and Coco have indicated that they had a great time. We are so thankful to have found you! It made our trip so much easier to go worry free. The girls seemed very relaxed and every picture you sent over our trip, showed how happy they were. Your attitude during the entire stay they had, was over the top. When our return flight was canceled, and it added an extra day to our trip, you again made us feel at ease. Can't thank you enough, and would use you again on our return next summer. Pat, Sue, Spice and Coco.”
“We were in need of a replacement sitter for our dog Joey after her lifelong caregiver of 7 years retired. Lauren came through for us in a big way. Her quiet home and gentle nature were perfect for our girl and gave us peace of mind that she was in good hands while we were away visiting family. We will definitely continue to use her services going forward!”

“Highest marks! Pat was super-attentive to Cody's special needs and gave us daily updates. We were particularly impressed by the way she introduced the other dogs in her care to Cody -- incrementally, to not overwhelm our little girl and also to get a read for who would get along best so she could manage everyone socially. We would absolutely use Pat's services again. Thank you so much!!!”
“Valerie and her family were so wonderful. We were so bummed to leave our pup for his first Christmas but she made it special for him and welcomed him as part of the family in their gorgeous home. We got regular updates and check ins. He loved romping in the snow with his new best friend, their family yellow lab. We highly recommend Valerie and will be using her again!”
“My Australian Shepherd, Remi, had a great time with Melissa. I know Remi was well cared for and incorporated into their family activities including walks and hikes. I know Remi will be excited to return for another visit.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Debbie! Clear and detailed communication, amazing facility, and we picked up a very happy and tired dog. I will definitely recommend her to any friends and family that need to board their dog in the area.”
“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.”
