About: Hi! We’re Natalie and Tim, and we have both had dogs our entire lives. Natalie worked at a Humane Society in college, and Tim fostered dogs (and was a “failed foster” parent) for many years before we moved to Maine with our two doggies, Penny & Willa. We spend lots of time taking our dogs and dogs who we sit for to local nature trails in Cumberland or enjoying fetch with the Chuck-It in our large backyard. Our home is kid-free, and we will treat your pups like our own! Tim works from home, and Natalie is a full-time graduate student with a flexible schedule. Your dogs will be home with either or both of us for the majority, if not the entire time! We have a large yard (1.5 acres) on a quiet street in a very dog-friendly neighborhood. Although our yard is not physically fenced, we do have an electric fence that could work for your dog if they are trained on this at your home! We are happy to crate your dogs - we’re even happy to have them in our bedroom and on the couch if they prefer!
“Stout enjoyed his visit with Simon. He was flexible about us changing our plans too. He was able to add extra dates which helped us enormously. Thank you!!”
“Lou had such a great time again with Elisabeth while we were away! We absolutely loved all of the updates and she looked so happy and relaxed in every photo and video!”
“They were so fabulous!!! Watched my girl Winnie on my wedding night. They picked her up, dropped her off and were super flexible on what was a crazy day. Would definitely recommend!!!”
“Nicolette was professional, attentive and a great dog sitter taking them on sniffventures, walks, dog parks, ect. Our pet had such a great time making new friends he didn't want to leave when we came to pick him up. We'll definitely be doing business with Nicolette in the future! Thank you so much Nicolette for being exactly what we and Odin wanted/needed, you're the best:)”
“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.”
“Kymberly and Robert always do such a great job with my Mala. Mala is 15 years old now and has stayed with them many times. She always knows when I pack her travel bag that she will get to vacation with them, and she gets so excited! Ours dogs are family, and it can be hard to leave them, but I never have any concerns whatever when I leave Mala with Kymberly and Robert. They are my trusted sitters!”
“Alicia and Dave were great with Cosmo. He was very comfortable there with them and their dog, and they were great at giving him his medications. Always tough to find someone to watch these dogs with some medical issues, but they didn’t miss a beat. Loved getting the picture updates.”
“Claudia and Jason were so thoughtful and communicative. Opie had an excellent week with them and they sent me pictures and updates regularly. I will book with them again!”
“I have a very anxious dog and it’s been difficult to find a sitter who gets along with him but Marna has been a total lifesaver. She has been very professional, accommodating, and just delightful to work with, and I highly recommend her.”
“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”
About: Animals have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with a cat who was much more than a pet—because I didn’t have any brothers or sisters, she was my best friend and constant companion. Later, after meeting my husband, who had a dog, I discovered how much joy dogs bring and how different, fun, and rewarding it is to spend time with them. Now that my own children are older and more independent, I finally have some time to do something I’ve wanted for a while: care for other people’s dogs. Spending time with animals truly makes me happy, and I would love to give your dog the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I’ve looked after dogs in my home and understand that every pet is unique. Some dogs love long walks and playtime, while others just want a quiet companion nearby. I’ll happily follow your dog’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. What really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care. I pay close attention to the little details, carefully follow your instructions, and treat every pet like family. I’ll also send regular photos and updates, so you’ll always know your furry friend is happy and well cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for your pet. I’m available for afternoon walks during the week, as well as boarding. Your dog will have regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I always do my best to follow your pet’s usual schedule, so they feel comfortable and at home while you’re away. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. They will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and a cozy place to rest. . My children are older. They’re gentle and respectful, and they’ll happily play with your dog if that’s something your dog enjoys. I’ll also send regular photo updates, so you’ll always know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Molly is so amazing! We love leaving Vargas with her and the pups. This time, we went away for a week and Vargas had an amazing time. We were always in the know with photo updates. Thank you, Molly!”
“Christina was great with Molly and treated her as if she was her own. They bonded right away and Molly was very happy and comfortable. It gave me great peace of mind to know she was being so well looked after. I will definitely use Christina again!”
“Sridevi took wonderful care of my dog, Sasha. I had to book with her at the last minute because of a funeral and she could not have been more accommodating. Sasha was so content at her house in such a short period of time, I was very impressed. Sasha does not usually warm up to people so quickly, so I knew she was in good hands. 🐾”
“Heidi was responsive, organized, and flexible with our changing schedule due to weather. Hank was well-cared for in our absence and we would definitely leave him with Heidi again.”
“First of all, let me start by saying this couple is by far one of the nicest families I’ve met out here. Last minute booking and they welcomed my pup with open arms. Cassidy and Cody kept me up to snuff with day to day life while I was away and even sent pictures of them on adventures. They took great care of my pup and their sweet kids spoiled him with hourly cuddles and brushes so he came home looking like a million bucks. Thank you to the entire family for taking such great care of my boy. Aloha”
“This was our second weekend with Anne for our 6 month old Kodi. Once again, Anne did a fabulous job and provided plenty of canine pals for our pup to play with. Our pup is a very energetic and determined youngster and Anne handled her extremely well. It was an enormously successful weekend and I highly encourage you to have your pups stay with Anne.”
“Emily and Kieran were so great with Chewy! I met with them and Leon leading up to the booking which was great so that our dogs met ahead of time. They sent periodic updates which was awesome and put me at ease. It was a wonderful first experience using Rover.”

“Rose was so great! She took excellent care of my cats, and send lots of pictures from both of her visits. She took the time to play with them, and she also cleaned out the litter box which I wasn’t expecting and really appreciated!”
“We ask for Lily each time we head out of town. Mittens - who is generally a shy cat - always comes out and spends time with Lily when she is here. We feel comfortable knowing that Mittens is well looked after.”
“My cat hid from them. They kept looking fof him. He was in the house. They put food, water and litter boxes all over their house. He did come out of hiding. He started being his usual cuddle cat. They have truly taken care of my cat with patience and caring. I would definitely use them again”
“Kasch did an amazing job taking care of my kitties: He was very communicative about what happened during the visits. I have shy cats, but they warmed up to him very fast! I recommend him to anyone!”
“Jamie was awesome! Super responsive and flexible. 10/10 will book again. Had no qualms at all about leaving her my key, and she sent photo updates. Made me feel super comfy to leave my 17 year old cat home for a few days.”
About: I have experience owning a family cat, as well as caring for and living with several other cats over the years. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, comfort level, and routine. I believe in respecting each cat's individual needs and preferences, whether they enjoy lots of attention and playtime or prefer a quieter, more independent approach. My goal is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
“So happy to have found Amy! She is easy to communicate with, arrives on time, and never fails to give detailed updates with lots of pictures so I know my babies are ok. You can tell she really loves animals, and she even charmed my shy little guy the first time she met him. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had cats my entire life and would love to drop in and visit your kitty! I currently have a Maine coon named Franklin who keeps me on my toes! I have no problem helping out with cat litter, playing, food and water, or just giving them some extra love while you’re away!
“Julianne was so great and made it easy to leave Clyde at home - she was professional and so patient with him during our meet and greet. Each photo I received of him I could tell he was so happy to see her and was in good hands. Thank you Julianne!”
“Ashley is wonderful! We are so grateful for the excellent and thoughtful care she gave our cat (and flock of chickens!) while we were away. She was communicative, easy to work with, and detail oriented. And, we loved getting photos and little updates of the pets she'd send after her visits. I would definitely recommend Ashley and we hope to have her back again next time we travel!”
“Tova is wonderful. Easy to communicate with, very responsible and wonderful with our cat. Each visit, she arrived on time, sent photos, and a thorough update. She is also versed in giving meds. So grateful to have found a great pet sitter.”
“Rachel was wonderful with our cat! He wanted lots of attention and that’s what she gave him. It’s very important for us when we’re away to know that he’s well cared for and isn’t so lonely. Rachel sent us great updates on his behaviors along with photos and videos. We were happy to know he was in good hands.”
“This was the first time I have been away from my pets for an extended period of time. Nicole was great, very reassuring, and I was so thrilled to see her daily pictures. Even it was me. My cat was hissing at her.🤣 I highly recommend her for pet sitting”
“Jonas has been great with our cat, spending videos and keeping us updated. They also waded through 17” of snow when we were out of town to feed our cat, and changed around their schedule to bring a package in for us before the snow came. Would highly recommend!”
“Briana always takes such good care of our high-maintenance cat! She’s one of the few pet sitters able to give him his insulin injections (he’s sassy). He’s always so happy when we get home.”

“i would definitely book simon again! he was lovely and very accommodating. he gave a thorough report when i picked up my pet who came home calm and taken care of. i was also impressed by his own lovely, and nicely trained dog. that says a lot!”
“Absolutely wonderful pet sitter. Marna was calm and patient with our little chihuahua, Miika. Miika was happy and relaxed when she was picked up. I highly recommend Marna and will definitely be using her services again.”
“Stanley came home exhausted and happy. He was lucky to have the chance to play with other kids and dogs. This was an excellent opportunity for him to learn how interact with grouped dogs. Nicolette took great care to monitor his activity level and provided him many opportunities to get outside and explore. Her space is almost as incredible as her presence. We look forward to booking with her again.”
“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.”
About: My husband used to train in the canine unit so he’s definitely taught me a thing or two! I’ve had cats my whole life as well! I am patient and loving towards all living beings. I enjoy pet sitting & loving them when their families aren’t around. I am also a nanny and have cared for many pets through the families I’ve cared for. I am available for boarding & daycare Friday-Sundays. Sometimes I have more availability but not always. I am open to being flexible as much as I possibly can. I have a large yard, house is a decent size so pets can all enjoy their own personal space or cuddle together. I don’t have an extra crate but I’d be happy to set one up (must be provided by owner).
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our dog Willow with Alma! She was very communicative before and during the booking which always makes the Rover process feel easier and more reassuring. Alma’s dog, Birdy, is super sweet as well. Willow seemed comfortable right away and according to Alma settled in more as the day went on. Great yard, deck for doggie lounging and overall set up from the house (super easy to see the yard from most parts of the downstairs). We will definitely book again. Highly recommend!”
“My Rosie first met Matt when his partner was her primary sitter and she has been obsessed with him for well over a year. His wonderful partner is no longer dogsitting in the area so Matt joined Rover himself bc he loved the dogs so much and I could not be more grateful. He keeps her active enough that Rosie is tired when she gets home but most importantly I appreciate knowing she’s going to be loved on all day. Matt is flexible and super communicative plus he takes great pictures - I would recommend him without any hesitation.”
“Emily and Kieran took a very good care of our dog! They were very accomodating even on the last minute notice, and were very flexible on the timing, which we really appreciate :) They took Ohsam out for a walk several times, gave lots of loves and cuddles. I can see Ohsam had a great time with the family! Would recommend them during our next visit in Portland. Thank you!!”
About: Experience, work remotely, flexible schedule, own dogs in the past, able to walk frequently, able to be active with dog if needed.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for my whole life! I have experience with dogs of many sizes and breeds, cats, cows, and chickens. Walking dogs is one of my favorite things to do. I have worked for a dog walking company for the past 3 years. Also, I have worked on multiple farms where I’ve cared for farm animals and dogs/cats. I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I’m working a remote part-time job which leaves me with plenty of time to walk dogs throughout the day and in the evening. Additionally, I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends. If I am caring for your pet in your home I will make sure to follow whatever schedule you have for them. I will take them out to play often and give them lots of love.
About: Hey there! I'm Evan, a proud dog dad to Ollie and Kylo. With a flexible work-from-home schedule, I can easily accommodate your pup's daycare, drop-in and walking needs at your convenience. I have a big yard for the dogs to play outside (supervised), great trails for walking/running and plenty of room inside for your furry friend to hang and relax. Your furry friend will enjoy fun, safe, and engaging walks, just like my own dogs do. Let's give your pup the best walking experience! Pet care is a fundamental part of my daily routine. As a dog dad to Ollie and Kylo, I ensure they receive plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection every day. My work-from-home schedule allows me to integrate their walks, playtime, and grooming into my day seamlessly. Each morning and evening, we go for walks to keep them healthy and happy as well as playing out in the yard. In my home, I provide a nurturing and stimulating environment for Ollie and Kylo by ensuring they have a consistent routine that includes regular exercise, balanced meals, and plenty of affection. I focus on maintaining a safe and clean living space, regularly grooming them, and keeping their toys and bedding fresh. When caring for pets in my clients' homes, I prioritize understanding each pet's unique needs and routines. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owners, ensuring their pets receive the same level of care and attention they would at home. This includes feeding them according to their schedule, taking them for walks or play sessions, and maintaining any training or behavioral routines. I also make sure to keep the client's home clean and secure, leaving detailed updates on their pet's activities and well-being. My goal is to provide peace of mind to pet owners, knowing their beloved pets are in safe and caring hands.
“We left our sweet Bichon with Cassidy while attending a wedding nearby. We received a pic of him during the wedding and felt reassured. We picked him up to find him in fine form, having played and cuddled like he does at home. Recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of family and friends since I was in my teens, but more extensively in college and since. For 3 years I boarded and sat for three different family friends. I’ve personally helped raise 3 dogs and 2 cats. I’ve even helped herd sheep and tamed alpacas! I work nearly full-time as a server at a restaurant, so Wednesday to Saturday night I’m unavailable for somewhere between 6-9 hours on those days. When I have my off days I’m usually at home or out for a walk. I’m usually efficient with my errands and have extensive free time on off days. My apartment is a one bedroom, so if I’m not playing around the apartment with the pet, I’d want to bring them on a walk or to the park. I have a very comfortable bedroom conducive to nap time, and I live in the heart of Old Port. Whenever I am with pets in my house I am always looking to set up a cozy space for them to relax with blankets, pillows, their favorite toys. I try to make them feel like a proper guest in my home like anyone else. My apartment is always very quiet despite being downtown, but I would hope to find activities we could do in and around Portland to help keep them active and entertained.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and even horses and chickens since I was twelve. Reliable for pet sitting and walking. I work full time from home so I have a very flexible schedule when it comes to drop in visits, walks, potty breaks, etc. I work full time from home, so I have a lot of flexibility to do morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-ins, and am also able to offer to do overnights on weekends or weekdays. I will look after your pet like it was my own. I am very courteous and respectful of other peoples spaces and I will give your animals the care they need and modify that care according to your preference/specifications.
“Our pup was very happy at Kylie’s house. It was totally puppy-proof, she was attentive to our dog’s needs and she was easy to communicate with. Kylie and John seem like great people and we would be happy to use them again sometime.”
“Robin was excellent!! She was very attentive and sent lots of pictures and videos. My pup has some quirks, especially with big dogs but Robin knew exactly how to introduce Steiny to her dog Stella. Stella was also clearly a pro at dealing with the smaller more neurotic fuzz balls lol. It looked like they were best buds by the end. Very much appreciated Robin accommodating my last minute request! Will definitely be reaching out again.”
About: My mission is to provide loving, reliable care when you can’t be there. Whether your furry friend needs a mid-day walk, overnight care, or just some playtime, I’m here to keep tails wagging and ensure your peace of mind. An experienced pet sitter and walker who is passionate about animals, I offer personalized services tailored to your pet’s unique needs.

“Our first meeting was great! Very intuitive with our dog's needs. We loved her laid back approach and found that communication was great. Our dog loved all the extra attention!”
About: I have many years of experience caring for both dogs and cats for friends and clients. I have also fostered a dog for a span of a couple weeks. Although I don't currently have any pets of my own, I therefore have plenty of love and attention to give to every animal I care for. I enjoy keeping pets active with walks and outdoor play, spending quality time with them indoors, maintaining a clean environment, and, of course, rewarding them with treats when appropriate. I am a calm, dependable, and positive person who values routine and consistency. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away :) I love routine and live by my planner to stay organized. I enjoy haveing animals apart of that rontine as well, while also understanding that every pet has unique needs and that some require more time and attention than others. I consistently have Wednesdays and Thursdays free all day. I'm also available for early morning visits and evening appointments, allowing me to provide flexible and dependable care. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every dog and cat has different needs, and I adjust my care to match their energy level, preferences, and routine. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, keep water bowls full, clean up after pets, and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, companionship, and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
About: I currently live in Falmouth and am looking to fill my schedule a bit more doing something I love! I've been a huge dog-person since I was young and have dog-sat for dozens of pups over the years! I've done walks, helped with training, overnight-sitting, etc. From puppies to senior dogs, I'm experienced with different breeds so really have no preference to what size or aged dog I will be caring for! I’m also comfortable with different temperaments in dogs and have experience with curbing reactive behavior and building confidence. I grew up with a beagle and now have a rescue border collie mix. Overall, I just love dogs and look forward to making pup walks a part of my daily routine! If it sounds like I may be a good fit- I look forward to hearing from you! I’m currently working part-time from home, so my schedule allows for a lot of flexibility when it comes to sitting and walking! I also have availability on weekend days! I offer a safe and loving energy to all the pets I care for! I understand every dog/pet is different which will require specific needs and care catered to them. I’m comfortable with different temperaments when it comes to walking, and have a handful of experience curbing reactive behavior with my own pup and building confidence while on the leash.
“My dog is very anxious and would refuse to walk with anyone but me, and after I hurt my ankle I was so worried he wouldn’t get the exercise he needed. Kasch’s patience, kindness and skill quickly charmed my dog and now he runs and greets Kasch at the door. I am so grateful!”
About: I had had cats for as long as I can remember, I have also had Guinea pigs and 45 chickens at one point in time I am currently a full time student at central Maine community college so my schedule carries, but I am always available after 2pm.

“Amy was great with Maddy, who is an excited, energetic dog. Amy was calm and easy-going and really gave Maddy a good work-out on her walk. I really appreciated her attitude and commitment!”
“Matthew is great, and I already booked him again. When I come home, my dog Pilot is happy and freshly walked. It is making my surgery recovery much less stressful. I really appreciate his updates after walks!”
“Nicolette has been enormously helpful with our energetic pup. She took him on highly engaging woods walks, leaving him happy and calm each time she brought him back. It is abundantly clear Nicolette loves and takes great care in her interactions with animals, and we feel lucky to have found her as a dog walker whom we have every intention of reaching out to for ongoing help/care of our dog.”
About: I grew up with big dogs and many cats and have a lot of experience with them! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their pets while they are out of town or if they are behind on time. I am an animal lover and would love to keep your pet company while you’re away. I currently work full time so my schedule varies weekly! I would’ve to hep get your pups outside when I get home from work or before depending on my shift. Please reach out to coordinate! Not only will I walk you dog but I’ll make sure to give them lots of love and more than just a bathroom break! I’ll make sure to get the energy they’ve been saving all day out.
“Julianne was so sweet! She took photos and brought Flynn on a long night walk, while it was drizzling! Flynn is a high energy puppy and she handled him with ease. Would highly recommend!”
“Alyssa has house sat and walked our dog Mary-Shelley. She has done an amazing job working with Mary and gives detailed updates of the walks and days. Mary can be a reactive dog and Alyssa does a great job handling her and keeping her going! Would recommend Alyssa for anyone!”

About: I have pet sat for neighbors, friends and family for six years where I was responsible for walking and feeding their animals. I grew up with an Australian Shepherd and have been walking dogs since I was 10. I am an Elementary School Teacher so I am looking for something part time or full time for the summer months. I am also looking to continue my services when the school year starts in September. I currently have two cats of my own who get along very well with other animals. My parents dog stays with me as well on some weekends. I have a large park near my apartment and my parents dog really enjoys running around there. I am an elementary school teacher, so I will be available mostly full time during the summer months and then I will transition into a part time schedule when school starts back up in the fall. I have two cats of my own, so your pet will have fur friends to play with when/ if they stay at my home. Right next to my home I have a large park that residents take their pets to. I would also love to take your pet to a nearby dog park, that way they can socialize in a safe space!
“Bella did an amazing job with Nala! This was her first time with Nala - and it was very appreciative how she updated how the visits were each time and pictures! Would definitely use again 😊”

“Alicia and Dave were great with Cosmo. He was very comfortable there with them and their dog, and they were great at giving him his medications. Always tough to find someone to watch these dogs with some medical issues, but they didn’t miss a beat. Loved getting the picture updates.”
“Claudia and Jason were so thoughtful and communicative. Opie had an excellent week with them and they sent me pictures and updates regularly. I will book with them again!”
“I have a very anxious dog and it’s been difficult to find a sitter who gets along with him but Marna has been a total lifesaver. She has been very professional, accommodating, and just delightful to work with, and I highly recommend her.”
“Our dog, Maggie was happy with Abigail and Neil. They sent a few photos. She has a lot of energy and I'm sure she kept their dog, Molly busy. I appreciate them allowing Maggie to roam free in their home and on furniture.”
“Christina was great with Molly and treated her as if she was her own. They bonded right away and Molly was very happy and comfortable. It gave me great peace of mind to know she was being so well looked after. I will definitely use Christina again!”
“Sridevi took wonderful care of my dog, Sasha. I had to book with her at the last minute because of a funeral and she could not have been more accommodating. Sasha was so content at her house in such a short period of time, I was very impressed. Sasha does not usually warm up to people so quickly, so I knew she was in good hands. 🐾”
“Heidi was responsive, organized, and flexible with our changing schedule due to weather. Hank was well-cared for in our absence and we would definitely leave him with Heidi again.”
“This was our second weekend with Anne for our 6 month old Kodi. Once again, Anne did a fabulous job and provided plenty of canine pals for our pup to play with. Our pup is a very energetic and determined youngster and Anne handled her extremely well. It was an enormously successful weekend and I highly encourage you to have your pups stay with Anne.”
About: 35 years of experience caring for dogs, puppies, kittens & cats. I’m good with anxious dogs & scaredy cats. I have a flexible schedule, let me know how I can help. I am currently doing Rover full-time. For many years i have lived in homes with pets and helped care for them. Currently living in a home with 1 cat, 1 dog, and 12 chickens. We also do doggy day care and do boarding- so we keep pretty busy. I always walk dogs on their leashes. I make sure to keep medications and other harmful things locked away. We have a fenced in yard, but i’m always out there with them. I try to take as good care for your animals as if they were my own.
“Coconut's stay at Kelly's was fabulous. She took her out on an adventure, let her sleep on her bed, and overall showed a lot of empathy and understanding for pets. Her place is clean and very dog friendly. We would absolutely book with Kelly again!”
“Kathleen and Dylan were great to work with and took wonderful care of our pug- taking her to the beach and on walks on the prom. She looked really happy in the daily photos - the updates were welcome. Their golden is super sweet. Big thanks to Kathleen and Dylan!”

“Justin was fantastic! He was able to take my pup on short notice and did an amazing job. My dog had 5 different daily medications and Justin handled it with amazing care and communication. Highly recommend Justin for your next Rover!”
“Kimberly was absolutely fantastic!! She sent lots of pictures and had great communication. I could tell she took excellent care of my doggo and he was so happy at pick up. He has his quirks, but she clearly knew how to handle them and was completely unbothered by them. Will definitely be using her again when back in the area!”
