“Elisabeth makes Louise feel so welcome and at home. Louise is so excited to get out of the car there and I am so at ease knowing she is so well cared for. Highly highly recommend Elisabeth!”

“Kelly was wonderful with our dog Jimmy! She took him to the lake, and he had an absolute blast playing there. She kept us updated throughout the weekend, sending us updates with pictures and videos. He probably didn’t want to come home! We’ll definitely book Kelly again.”

“Carmen was incredibly attentive and good with goose! I came home to a happy cat and received many pictures throughout the stay - she also went above and beyond and cleaned her litter box completely, as well as her food dishes! Id absolutely book with Carmen again.”

“Neil and Abby were great. Good communication and our dog was very happy there - lots of good play time with their dog Molly. Would definitely have Delta board with them again in the future!”

“I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Sridevi truly loves animals and treats them like part of her own family. Her home is warm, clean, and perfectly set up for dogs to feel safe and comfortable. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Baxter came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for- honestly I think he had a little vacation of his own. I would absolutely recommend Sri to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Viva once again provided a second home for our sweet boy. He trusts her implicitly as do we. She’s super conscientious about making sure he’s comfortable, active and well loved. And she always sends us the best photo updates!”

“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!”


“Sadie's stay with Trisha and her family was fantastic. They accommodated a last minute change of schedule.Because sadie had eaten chocolate on the drive and we needed to deal with it before dropping her off. Tricia's dog and kids were all friendly and enjoyed having sadie. Sadie loved being there - Plenty of outdoor time and plenty of people time! Trisha was the best fit for Sadie with a dog sitter that we've ever found!”

“Heidi treated our dogs so well! We’re new to town and she was the first place we boarded them. Kept us updated with pix and always responded quickly. Highly recommend!”

“Our two dogs were very comfortable and happy there. One of our dogs has a lot of anxiety and does not like many people at all. She was very happy with Spencer and Emily. they obviously really love dogs! We highly recommend them!”

“Christine is a new favorite dogsitter! I left one of my dogs with her and her canine crew for five days—she came home happy, healthy, and tired after romping around the big fenced yard, dipping in the pool, and snoozing on the couch. Worry-free dogsitting from a true dog lover. Thanks, Christine!”

“They did a great job taking care of our bulldog. He is a large breed and loves attention, their whole family gave him lots of love. They were flexible with our schedule and easy to work with. Would definitely use them again.”

“Stacey took great care of my cats! She sent detailed reports with numerous photos. She went above and beyond by bringing in the mail without being asked. I will definitely book Stacey again and highly recommend her!”

“Nishat was fantastic! One of our cats needs a lot of extra attention due to his allergies and asthma, and Nishat was so patient and went above and beyond taking care of him and our other two cats! She sent a lot of pictures throughout our trip, getting snapshots of each of our babies daily. This made it so we could enjoy our time away without worrying about how they were faring at home — we knew for certain that they were in good hands. We would definitely book with Nishat again!!”


“Katrina was great! Both of my cats looked forward to her coming by every day. I was glad to know they were well looked after—she sent lots of photos and videos so I could see for myself! 10/10 would book again.”

About: Hi there! We’re Amanda and Austen, a couple based in Scarborough with a dog of our own (our Mini Aussie, Mazie) and a lot of love to share with yours. When Amanda’s not caring for her sweet group of five-year-olds or Austen’s not out playing tennis, we’re spending time with Mazie, chasing seagulls at the beach, hiking in the mountains, or snuggling up on the couch after a snowy play session. We love active days just as much as laid-back ones, and we’re happy to match whatever energy your pup brings. We both grew up in homes with animals- at one point, Amanda had five dogs and a cat! We have cared for dogs of all breeds and energy levels, from teacup-size rescues to large-breed couch potatoes, plus plenty of other animals over the years (including Sparkles the Bearded Dragon, Amanda’s current classroom pet). We live in a quiet neighborhood with a fully fenced-in backyard that dogs love to explore. Austen works from home full-time, so your pup will get plenty of attention throughout the day, and we share responsibilities depending on the care your pet needs. Whether it’s a weekend adventure, daily daycare, or a cozy overnight stay, we’re here to make your dog feel happy, safe, and loved. We offer care throughout the week and are happy to accommodate weekends, holidays, and special requests as our schedule allows. Austen works from home and provides consistent weekday care and supervision, while Amanda handles most weekend walks, drop-ins, and house sitting when needed. Between the two of us, your pet will never go long without company, playtime, or a potty break. Whether it’s a weekend getaway or a last-minute trip, we’ll work with you to make sure your pup is happy and cared for. Our day care rate is based on an 8 hour day. We're happy to have your dog with us for longer, but we may ask for an additional fee based on the number of hours. We know how important it is to trust someone with your pet. That’s why we always begin with a meet-and-greet to ensure your dog is comfortable with us, and you’re confident in the care we provide. We take a gentle, respectful approach, especially with shy or anxious dogs, and we’ll always ask for your guidance on what makes your pup feel safe and secure. Whether we’re in your home or ours, we want to provide a low-stress, enriching environment with plenty of attention, structure, and love. We’re also happy to provide regular updates (with photos!) and check-ins during every visit or stay, so you’re always in the loop - because we’d want the same from someone watching Mazie.

“Once again, Catherine met our need for a last minute drop in visit with Stevie. Quick response and took great care of our girl!!! Will continue to make Catherine our first call!”

About: I'm a lifelong dog owner and have enjoyed the experience of teaching my daughters the joys and responsibilities of caring for our dogs. As lead parent, I've been passionate about opting for daily outdoor adventures with my daughters and dogs and have often heard, "Boy, you have your hands full!", to which I have always replied, "I need to keep everybody happy somehow." Romps on the beach or marsh, trail running, and biking or rollerblading the Eastern Trail are just a few of our favorites. Over the past few years, we've said goodbye to our beloved Boss and Kona. We're still craving dog energy around our home and outdoor adventures, and want to assist other families in the Scarborough community to achieve "a tired dog, a happy dog" experience that we've known and love. We feel blessed to have a doggy daycare buddy, Finnegan, with us most weekdays and he is dog friendly. I work from home while my daughters are in school and am off with them during the summer months. We are available to care for your dog throughout the day and evening, and love boarding dogs for overnights. Summer hours are very flexible for walks. During the school year we can walk your dog weekdays after 3:30PM; or as scheduled outside of those hours upon request. My Mondays and Fridays tend to be light on my primary work and I carve out time for doggy adventures and exercise. We can accommodate based on your needs and recommendations specific for your dog(s). Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioral issues beforehand. If any medication needs to be administered, I'd be glad to assist.

“Cameron is a natural with dogs. My dog, Missy Birch always remembers and is excited to see Cameron when he comes over. Their walks include: neighborhood strolls or local trails. Cameron is kind, patient, attentive, and very responsible, I've known Cameron for many years and it’s clear he genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs & cats! Missy Birch loves Cameron and she says she would highly recommend him to walk and hang out with more dogs!”

“Jesika was so great, so helpful and flexible and reassuring! This was our first time leaving our cat all alone and she went above and beyond to make sure the kitty was ok!”

“Jess took great care of my 2 kitties when I was away. I got a daily photo with a cute snuggle picture of my friendly cat. It felt good to know they were so well cared for.”

“Melody is doing great job taking care of Mimi! Mimi is a girl not easily trusting people but she did trust Melody! Also Melody sent me details notes and photos that Mimi is doing well! Thank you Melody!!”


“Elizabeth was great! We met before the reservation to go over medication and feeding. Bing and Elizabeth got along great together. If I go away again, I will definitely try to book her again.”


“Sparrow is wonderful! They are very attentive to detail and as agreed made sure they arrived at the specified time and all tasks performed. They are very compassionate and clearly love being around animals. I could be assured that if there was a problem or issue they were unsure of they would bring it to my attention. I have terrible PTSD from another pet sitters grave mistake, but Sparrow helped put my mind at ease. You won’t be disappointed hiring Sparrow to take care of your beloved pets.”


“Gigi was great taking care of 2 cats over 4 days. From the moment I contacted to request service, she was very communicative. The cats and home were in great condition when we returned home. Loved the pics!”


About: I had cats in my youth but my husband is allergic so I don’t have them now. I love all animals and am committed to providing excellent care. For drop-ins, I will check on and play with your cat, ensure they have fresh food and water, clean litter, and sufficient enrichment.
“Hannah was such a sweet babysitter for our cats. She was on time to do a meet and greet the week before, and let us add on extra days to accommodate our travel. She took lots of pictures of our cats and seemed like she played with them a bit during her visits. I highly recommend her service and will book with her again!”

“I definitely recommend Catey, particularly if your quadrupedal babes tend toward anxiety or need confident medication administration. This is the first sitter I've ever hired who wasn't already familiar with my cats and our home. I was nervous because of my boys needs medicated eye drops every 12 hours, which isn't his favorite thing by far, and he also generally takes a while to get comfortable with new people. Catey's super calm and solid demeanor was evident from the get-go, and this helped my boy a lot. Meds went off without a problem. Everything that needed doing for both cats was done, and my boys were chill as can be when I returned home. Catey was also super communicative and seemed like a solid, kind person in general. I couldn't ask for more from a sitter!”


About: I've been caring for cats for over 10 years and have experience with both healthy cats and those with special medical needs. My own cat had significant health challenges, including vision loss in one eye and neurological damage, which required daily hands-on care and assistance. Through that experience, I became comfortable monitoring health concerns, administering specialized care, and providing patient, compassionate support. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.

“Lindsay was great! She gave us tips on where to find vegan food, where we could park our RV as we were going on a whale watching tour. She took Maddie for walks and sent us pictures. Maddie was very comfortable with Lindsay. Lindsay was always quick to answer when we had questions. We highly recommend her.”
“Seth and his family are truly so wonderful. He was a huge help to us out-of-towners who needed a place for our pup to hang out. Rudy has some separation anxiety and Seth was absolutely wonderful with him. He sent photos throughout the day and put our mind at ease. Would absolutely 100% recommend trusting him with your dog!!”

“Bailey loves Kate. They played together and went on walks. I felt he was in good hands. I completely trusted her. Such a nice feeling to know your dog is both safe and happy.”

“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!!”

“I found James as a last minute dog-sitter when my original one cancelled on me. Ellie seems like she had a good time with all the play and attention that she could get. I would definitely recommend James to anyone looking for someone look after their fur babies 😄”


“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.”

“Victoria was wonderful and it was clear when I picked him up how comfortable and happy my pup had been with her. She was responsive when booking, communicative during her time with him including sending a photo, and flexible when I was a bit unsure of my timeline. I will definitely book time with her again!”
“Emilia took great care of my dog Louie who is a bit nervous around new people. Communication was great and I could tell my little guy felt very comfortable with her. Would 10/10 recommend!”


“Joshua and his wife were amazing with my dog while we were visiting the area. They sent pictures and videos and were so flexible and accommodating. It was obvious that my dog was very happy to stay with them during the day.”


About: Hi, my name is Michael and I am a proud owner of a beautiful King Charles Cavalier Spaniel and my dog and I would both love to have your pups company. Please let me know if you have any special instructions and I promise your pup will have a comfortable stay with many fun walks. Thanks! I provide 5 walks a day for my own pup and would love for your dog to join. I work from home so your dog will have ongoing company throughout most of the day. I have one friendly dog in a quiet calm environment with no children. I will feed and walk your doggy as requested, and can provide lots of pets as well.
“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.”

“Annie was fantastic! Winnie is not the easiest of dogs and Annie was gentle and patient with her. She found ways around things that Winnie doesn't enjoy, like being picked up, which is necessary because she can't do stairs.”
“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!”

“Khaila provided amazing day care for my almost 2 year old cockapoo when I had a long work day. She was patient and gentle with him despite him being a nervous boy at first. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Andy has been walking my dog fairly regularly for over 6 months now and I can’t recommend him enough. He is always timely in his response and communicates very clearly. I would recommend him to anyone who’s looking for a loving and responsible dog walker.”

“Matt was great! He was communicative from the meet and greet through a full week of 2x day walks, he always provided an update on how things were going. He was caring and patient with my dog and punctual for all walks! Thank you Matt!”

About: I've grown up with cats and dogs, and love spending time with them. I like to go for long walks, play with pets, or just hangout and keep them company. Also love art, and can paint a watercolor or acrylic portrait of your pet, if you like! I'm currently working full time from 8-4:30, but have plenty of time in the evenings! Also, most Wednesdays and Fridays I work from home, so I can help out during the day if I'm in your area. I will care for your pet in your home in accordance with whatever rules you follow, whether that's keeping them in certain areas and off furniture, or giving them plenty of freedom to run around and cuddle.
About: Growing up with dogs all around was and continues to be a fun and deeply rewarding experience. I have cared for dogs (and cats, etc.) since I was a kid, and still often take care of family and friends' pets. Providing enrichment and engagement, anticipating and caring for needs, wrangling wily actors, managing space and time in a positive attitude, and thinking and acting flexibly, attuned to diverse and changing needs, are not only things required from a good dog walker - these are tasks I complete daily as a middle school teacher. I am available all day most Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, with some availability on the weekends. During the school year, my availability will mostly be on the weekends, though I will be available during school breaks and holidays. As a dog walker, safety is the most important aspect. I am a very perceptive individual and take care to be aware of all of my surroundings. Any and all information you can share about your pet is greatly welcome.
“Viva truly understands dogs. She absolutely adores them, and they absolutely adore her!!! She exudes positive energy. She asks thoughtful, thorough questions and communicates really well. With Viva, you know your precious dog is in the best possible hands ❤️”


About: Hi! I offer in-home care for dogs, cats and other creatures, primarily between Portland, Maine and Sedona. But I also work with destination clients. I started my life out with a pack of German Shepherds and have been caring for animals my entire life. I’m experienced with all sizes, temperaments, and personalities— and other animals that are atypical pets.. A core focus in my work and life is animal communication. For parents who enjoy understanding their pet more deeply, or have new pets, I’m happy to share insights into behavior and needs – once I’ve spent time getting to know your pet. I also have training in small animal massage and energy work. I offer consistency in play, exercise, Respect for your training routines, and am always attuned to what your pet actually needs. At heart, I’m an advocate for animals and their well-being. Their comfort, safety, and basic needs come first, and I’m honored to be part of your pet’s wellness team. While I don’t yet have Rover reviews—most of my work has been through private clients—I’m happy to provide strong references upon request. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit. My schedule is flexible. I generally work at “home” so am able to spend a lot of time with your pet, letting them know that you’ve made sure they are taken care of after the suitcases are out the door. If we're newly connecting, I like to start with a call or video chat and then a home visit, to make sure we are a good fit. And chat about your pet's needs, preferences and schedule.
About: I work at The Bark Yard, a fear and force free doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I care for dogs daily in a positive, stress-free environment. I’ve grown up with small to extremely large dogs—mainly Boston terriers and Great Pyrenees—and have hands-on experience with feeding, medication routines, enrichment, and reading canine body language. I also personally own and care for a cat, so I’m comfortable providing attentive, gentle care for both dogs and cats. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. I work hands-on at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, so caring for animals, following schedules, and reading behavior is second nature to me. At home, I care for my own cat with consistent feeding, litter maintenance, playtime, and observation. Because pet care is built into my lifestyle—not something I squeeze in—I’m reliable, attentive, and able to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow all written and verbal instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and household rules. I respect the pet’s space, read body language, and move at their comfort level—especially for shy or anxious pets. I keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, maintain a clean environment, and leave the home as I found it. My goal is for pets to feel calm, safe, and cared for in their familiar environment.
About: I have cared for dogs of all sizes from 10lbs to 100+ lbs, ages puppy to senior, all with various temperaments, energy levels and medical needs. I’ve also cared for many cats ranging from 2 years old to 13 years old I’m a middle school teacher on summer break with A LOT of availability. I regularly free weekdays during the day through the evening and even available at night and through the night most days of the week. I have a large fenced in yard with that’s mostly shaded by surrounding trees. With easy access from a back deck. We also have a screened in porch for good airflow on hotter days. I live in a nice and walkable neighborhood and I regularly visit local walking/hiking trails in the area.
“Tiffany has done a great job with Madison! She is very responsive and checks in often. He looks forward to his walks and tlc time with her. Tiffany has been very flexible and patient with Madx especially since he has had a slight muscle injury and sometimes needs a modified walk. Would book again and again!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and have lots of experience caring for all kinds and sizes of dogs! I am careful and loving of all dogs, without exception. I have long experience walking and working with reactive dogs, and have cared for dogs overnight for families with as many as eleven dogs! My recent experience is with herding and working breeds so I am accustomed to handling large, smart dogs. If walking your dog, I'll walk at a fast clip or ramble to allow lots of sniffing, as your dog requires. I love to jog alongside a dog as well, and may do that if desired for repeat clients with athletic dogs. For drop-ins, I'll play, snuggle, or provide enrichment to break up the day for your dog while you are not home. Finally, I am a teacher on summer break so I am truly flexible and available, looking forward to being outside with dogs in the beautiful Maine summer. Thanks for considering my profile! I’m a teacher so my schedule is totally open in the summer. I love to walk and jog with dogs! I will have limited availability for continued care once the school year starts. I have long experience with caring for all sorts of animals, not just mammals. I love animals and look forward to helping yours live their best lives!
About: I have loved animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and bunnies. I previously worked on a farm where pets with various behaviors and ages lived. I am responsible, communicative, and loving when taking care of animals. I work part-time at a local bakery and am finished with my work day by 10:30am. I am free to walk or visit your pet with my flexible schedule. I cannot have pets stay over night in my home, but they are welcome during the day. I have a large apartment in a safe neighborhood
About: My pet care experience began when I was a child. Grew up having dogs and other pets in the house. It was the norm for me. That is until college came about and then moved to a large city. Having a pet wasn't viable during those years. This pattern broke when I found myself being asked to house sit for friends that I was also being asked to hang out with their pets while they were gone. I soon began to be a go to person for a few close friends to babysit their pets and plants. The skills that I have with pets are being able to understand them with body language. Hence the nick name dog whisperer. I am currently working part time and have Wednesdays and Thursdays, including the weekend available. Any time of the day of those specifically are perfectly feasible to accommodate care from me. I follow the diet guidelines given to me and don't alter from it. Outside of that, I make sure they are treated with love and attention throughout my time with them. Walks, play time, relax time...it all has a moment through within the day.
About: I’ve dogsat for family friends and grown up with animals. At home in Florida I have 3 Great Danes (one that I show professionally) so I am very familiar with animal behavior. Currently I live in an apartment by myself! I’m currently working full time, but my schedule is the same every week and I am able to work around my schedule to dogsit. I usually have nights off and am available to stay anywhere overnight and have reliable transportation. I feel as though caring for animals when they are without their parents is very important. Making sure they are fed, let out, properly exercised and played with and loved.
About: I am an animal lover who specializes in house sitting, pet enrichment, compassionate care, walks and play. All ages, 1 on 1 care. Very experienced with senior dogs and high needs situations. I am extremely communicative and love sharing photos of your furry friends. I am just like you! I have owned pets my whole life, I know how much they mean to our families and your boundaries and their health matter most to me. Happiness is everyone cared for and safe. You’ll see through my over 50 5 star reviews that I truly do care. This is not just a gig for me, this is a path I’ve chosen. I love to be outdoors and am an organized individual. It’s been a busy year and I’ve grown a beautiful clientele on Rover. I try to be as flexible as possible, my availability is always up to date but never hesitate to reach out and see if we can arrange something, I am always willing to flexible with my rates as well. I truly enjoy house sitting, leaving your place better than you found it and making your life as a pet owner simpler, with trust. Because I do not book multiple animals at once, my calendar is filling up fast. My best advice for booking is to plan far ahead and if you’re a new client, please allow time for meet and greets. My family and I have a full setup just waiting to accommodate a pup in need of a stay. We have animal beds, toys, A yard (not fenced in) with a chain run and lots of neighborhood to walk in! We also have a disabled/elderly person in the home with so much love to give to animals with a need for more affection and who can ensure someone is with your furry friend if we need to run an errand. We love a dog park or beach run if that’s what your pup is into (though I reserve field trips for more well acquainted clients), and our car is well equipped with baggies and h2o bowls to make sure any trip is safe and fun.

Her home is warm, clean, and perfectly set up for dogs to feel safe and comfortable. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Baxter came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for- honestly I think he had a little vacation of his own.

About: I grew up with dogs and I miss the pure joy they have for this world. I can't own one with my current situation, but would love to look after yours. I'm a working professional who is kind and courteous. If you want me to know anything ask, feel free to ask! -Alex I work a full time remote job, with easy morning and evening walking times. The afternoon tends to be a bit busier for me so I may not be able to take an extended break but can make sure your pup has plenty of bathroom breaks and long walks. I am kind and courteous of other people's space. I offer sitting in your space or walks, because my apartment doesn't allow me to have dogs.
“Khaila is incredible! She is a true dog lover and very knowledgeable. There are few people I trust with my dogs, and she's one of them! I know my dogs will be in good hands with Khaila, and she's my first choice in sitter in the Saco area. She's flexible with plans, responsive, and very communicative. I appreciate the updates she shares with me, and I know I don't have to worry when my dogs are being watched by her. Thank you Khaila!”

“Amanda and Austin were able to take my dog Willow after we had another Rover cancel on us. They were communicative and Willow came home happy and well taken care of.”

“Grace is a fantastic sitter. Chewy, my Labradoodle, loved staying with her. He has had two separate stays with her and when he saw her the second time, he simply rushed in to greet her with such joy. I definitely recommend her if you need a dog sitter.”
