“Wowza!!!! Janice is amazing! Not only did she provide tender loving care for our dog, Pasquale, but she was sooooo accommodating when our flights were changed last minute. We could not have found a better match for our needs. We love Janice….XO😘”
“Our eleven year old lab mix typically has little interest in socializing with other dogs and tends to get anxious when we she stays with a pet sitter, but she loves staying with Jaclyn! On her second stay with Jaclyn, she ran straight to the front steps of the house and stood there wagging her tail while giving us a look that she was ready for her parents to leave so her dog vacation could begin. While we were gone, Jaclyn sent us videos of June playing with the other dogs with a level of enthusiasm we haven't seen in quite some time. We already have June's next stay booked with Jaclyn, and it is great knowing she will be excited to be there!”

“Jeanne offers a pleasant, safe environment - both inside and outside at her rural Wells home. She exudes confidence with dogs and quickly judges their character, individual needs and compatibility with other canine guests. Her experience with horses reinforces a practical, easy approach to animal care. Our Welsh Terrier loved staying with Jeanne and plans to visit again.”

“If we could give more stars we would!!! Nicholas is great at communicating, responding quickly and making sure our pup has a safe exciting time when he's with him. Our pup and Syl get along so well and it's the most precious thing to see.”

“Ziggy was well cared for and came back happy after another great stay with Kyle and Kaleigh. There were highly responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up times, etc. highly recommend!”

“Carmen was kind and understanding with our dog. And overall just seems like a very nice person. She worked with us on dropoff and pickup and was pretty flexible. Figo seemed to have a lot of fun with her. She has a nice house and overall it seemed she lived in a dog friendly neighborhood so definitely recommend boarding with her.”

“Kseniia was amazing with our dog. It was his first time being away from us for an extended period of time and she went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. He was def on high alter in a new place, but she was so patient with him! I also really appreciated the daily pics and videos and her patience with us as our flights got changed and cancelled multiple times.”

“Diana was absolutely amazing with Nash! I can’t wait to use her services again! Nash went on plenty of walks her property is a dogs heaven. She sent so many pictures and updates! Truly the best possible experience!”

“We could not ask for a better dog sitter for our good boy! Elisabeth is truly a little dog whisperer—so caring, patient, and incredibly attentive to every detail. From the moment I met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs and understands their individual personalities and needs. She keeps us updated with lots of adorable photos and makes sure our dog felt completely at home, relaxed, and loved. The fun adventures she took them on made it feel like a real doggy vacation, not just a stay. Our dog comes home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It gives us total peace of mind to know our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We will 100% continue to book with Elisabeth again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter! 🐾💛”

“My girl had a spectacular weekend. So much so she didn't want to go home :) I think she fell in love with the kids. I was a bit worried about her raw diet as some people can't handle it. Austin had no issues at all. The updates and pictures were a lovely bonus. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for boarding.”

“Khaila took great care of our pup, Chuck! She sent us a little picture or video everyday which gave us a lot of peace of mind. 100% recommend and we will be working with her again!”


“Simply put, Trisha and Dan are the best! We have used them on multiple occassions for our dog Cody and we couldn't be happier with the care he has received. It is a huge relief to know he is left in such great hands while we are away. We find ourselves very fortunate to have found them!”

“Heidi is very responsive, friendly and affordable! She has a nice outdoor space for the dogs to roam around and play. She even sent me a couple videos and updates about my dog while he was in her care.”

“Amazing family with great kids who love animals! We are well updated with photos for our dog. Cassidy gave great assurance on the 2D1N boarding. Already arranged for the next boarding period!”

“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!”

“I’m so happy we found Sergey at the last minute. My two dogs stayed with Sergey’s for six nights. They came home tired, happy, and clean. Sergey was extremely flexible with our timing when our travel was delayed. I would not hesitate to recommend Sergey as a pet sitter.”

“Casey did a great job taking care of Gouda. We were worried because it was his first time spending a week apart but she took great care of him and the apartment overall. Her updates made us feel a lot better being apart from the pets. She went above and beyond and we really appreciated it.”


“Elizabeth was great! She always provided pictures of our two cats along with notes on how they were doing. It was nice to know that they were both being well taken care of. I would not hesitate to hire her again!”

“So glad to have booked with Eva! She put me to ease with her experience and quickly understanding my cat's needs (and knowing when he didn't want attention anymore). She took pictures and kept me posted while we were away. I'll be booking with Eva again!”


“Peter was excellent! He was really reliable and made an effort to keep to a consistent visiting schedule. Most importantly, he built trust and confidence with our cat and sent us updates and photos after every visit. We would absolutely recommend him!”

“Jocelyn did an amazing job checking in on my cats while I was out of town for a few days! She was always reliable and communicative. She even won the heart of my very nervous cat🩷 My babies can’t wait to see her again!”

About: I've been passionate about pets for decades. Although it's fun to walk and play with a furry friend, I also have experience caring for sick and older pets that may require extra attention and medication. Making sure my pets are well cared for is a top priority. After many years in education I have retired and now do volunteer work part time. My flexible schedule leaves plenty of time to care for your pet. I have a friendly small dog at home that will keep your pet company when you are away. I live near the ocean so dogs in my care go for long walks on the beach.

“Brianna was wonderful! She was able to stay a bit longer than expected on her first night with our shy, elusive cats to make them comfortable with her. One requires taking medication twice a day - so it was essential they felt comfortable with her quickly. We were concerned our cat might not reveal herself to get her medicine (which has happened for other caregivers), but we needn’t have worried!”

“Isabella helped me out on short notice when my typical sitter became unavailable, and she was awesome. Reliable, experienced, friendly, and flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend!”

“We contacted Jeanne for daycare for our 2 dogs while we were camping nearby at Pinederosa. Jeanne was delightful and our dogs loved being there. Plenty of indoor and outdoor space too. Our corgi has lots of energy & our small adopted dog is a little anxious. Jeanne made them both feel safe and happy for the day. Thank you!”

“They were incredible... My dog is going through a shy phase and they couldn't have been kinder with him. They sent pics throughout the day and updates and the home and the yard were perfect for a dog to have a super fun day. These are seriously good people and we'll be using them again whenever we're in the area. The perfect family to leave your furry loved one with.”

“Vanessa is the first pet sitter we have tried since moving out of state and we feel very lucky we found her. She is very caring and loving and her house and yard are very well suited for safety and comfort. Both Princess and I felt comfortable after our meet and greet. Princess had an excellent day there with Vanessa and her pup Pepper who is a very sweet and good boy! I highly recommend Vanessa and will definitely be booking more stays with her!”

“A very safe wonderful place for my pup for the day. Easy access to their place and an adorable clean neighborhood. Lots of pics and walks. Ideal situation for us. Rachael was wonderful.”

About: I’ve loved animals and grew up with them my entire life. I’m most comfortable with dogs and cats, but I can accommodate additional pets with direction and can deal with all different pet personalities quite well! I’m currently working from home, so my availability is quite open for most situations. I’m also open and would love something regular where I can stop in and do house calls or walks for those pet parents that had to return to the office! I can be flexible! I understand that your pet is your family, and I take that very very seriously. I promise to always treat them well and have their safety as a top priority.
About: I have always had dogs growing up, I currently have 3 sweet dogs with a fun fenced in backyard. I have been sitting family and friends' dogs for over 20 years and love all types. I work from home and am available for your dogs all day and night so they won't ever be lonely! I work from home and will be here all day and night for your sweet pups! My older dogs are very low maintenance and friendly, so your dogs will have plenty of attention and play time! I have a fenced in backyard and 3 older, sweet dogs that love other dogs. Dogs will have free roam and we love to cuddle! I also have a large crate if that is your preference.
“It was a pleasure to have our whippet puppy Fern cared for by Cassidy and Cody while on vacation in Cape May. Cassidy and Cody were so laid back, relaxed and flexible when it came times and days we needed care for Fern. Fern was nervous at first meeting and staying with new friends Gus, (their dog) and their 2 children, but she was wagging her tail and so excited to go back to their house the following day! Fern got extra walks, and even went to the beach with them! We felt very comfortable leaving our baby In their care! I also appreciated getting text and picture updates of how Fern was doing throughout the day. I would definitely reach out to Cody and Cassidy again for dog sitting when we are in the area.”

“Lindsay is fantastic. She has been a lifesaver with our new pup. He always comes home happy and tired, and Lindsay always gives great updates so I know exactly how our pup has been throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend her more.”

“Sadie and Szymon did a phenomenal job with my Otter! They went on a long walk, and Otter got to play with their dogs in their beautiful yard! They treated Otter like one of their own, and I highly recommend them!”

About: I recently adopted a Cockapoo named Lucy. She is a total sweetheart and loves people and other dogs. I previously owned my own Boxer, Ava, for 9 years. She passed away 2 years ago and so I started working for Rover to share my love, compassion and support to dog owners seeking companionship and enrichment activity for their dog. I am available to watch your dog during the week or weekends. Need a break from your dog so you can enjoy “me” time or have a nice weekend? Then reach out and contact me!

I will always have your dog on a long leash to allow him/her to roam safely with me tagging along.

I will treat your dog with care like it is my own.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog parent to Otis, my energetic Golden Retriever. Caring for him has given me hands-on experience with puppy training, daily exercise, feeding routines, crate training, and all the joys (and occasional messes!) that come with raising a happy, healthy dog. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with a companion, I’ll provide attentive care tailored to them. I treat every dog as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting your furry family member! I have a rotating schedule that allows me to have flexibility each week with some weekend and weekday availability! I strive to be available for anything from last minute drop-ins to 2-3 day long stretches for long weekends or midweek trips! I have a yard to allow your fur baby some outdoor play and also love exploring nearby walking paths and beaches! On the other end of the spectrum I have a nice big couch for those fur babies that just want a relaxing cuddle session. I also have a one-year old golden retriever who is an excellent companion for any pup looking for a play-mate!

I would love to help you with yours :) I am retired and have lots of love, time and flexibility. I am available days, nights and weekend. You can reach out to me anytime. I would love to care for your dog in their own home. I feel that is where they are most comfortable. I am happy to stay overnight.
About: Been a dog lover and owner all my life and would love the opportunity to take care of your dog if our schedules are able to align. I'm a teacher, so my summers are generally pretty open. I work Monday and Wednesday nights from about 5-7pm, but am otherwise available, unless otherwise noted in my calendar. Available times may change. I am offering dog walking and drop-ins at the moment, but I will care for any dogs as if they were my own, and will be in contact with the owners on an as needed basis. I plan/hope to expand to dog sitting eventually.

I fully trust Claudia and Jason and am so grateful to them.”
