“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.”
“Our pup is a sensitive, nervous guy. Marna made sure he felt loved and at home. I could tell he was having fun with her family through the photos she sent. She filled us in each day and sent photos. 🤩 Will definitely use Marna again!”
“Kymberly and Robert are excellent dog sitters. We felt absolutely confident and comfortable that our dog was in good hands from the moment we dropped her off with Kymberly and Robert. They posted regular updates and were attentive in every way. It’s clear that they have a love of dogs and shared that love with our pup. I highly recommend them for your dog needs!”

“Claudia and Jason were wonderful with Lawson! They kept me updated throughout the day with plenty of pictures and details about their activities. Their attention to detail was exceptional, and they made sure Lawson was comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely recommend them to friends!”
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.
“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.”
“Natalie took great care of Fletcher! We were nervous to leave him for longer than we had before, but Natalie sent plenty of updates and pictures, and fletcher came home happy and tired ?”
“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!!!”
“Molly did a great job with our dog, Watson! Watson is an anxious boy, but in no time I received a picture of him asleep, cuddling on their couch. We'd be happy to work with Molly again!”
“Really appreciated working with Muriel H. Initially I was thinking Serge needed to be boarded and after discussions and meeting with Muriel we decided to go the home visit route instead. Worked out perfect, and I appreciated the photo updates and communications. Gave me much confidence in leaving a family member in the care of others. We now have a solid relationship with Muriel H. We intend on using her services as we move forward. Highly recommended.”
“Christine was a lovely host for Bode’s week of summer camp. She was quick to reply, lovely to speak with, but most importantly seemed to really care about Bode’s wellbeing and happiness. She has a huge fenced in yard that he had free reign to, and a lovely in ground pool. We will absolutely book with her again!”
“Simon was so nice and welcoming, and my dogs seemed very happy. I got a bunch of pictures showing me how comfortable and at home my dogs felt from the first moment. We will certainly call Simon when we are in the area 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. 🐾”
“great family who very clearly loves having a dog in the home. they treated my girl like it was her home. very open to let her wander through the house freely and vicky/her husband are very communicative during the stay texting updates each day. would recommend and use them again!”
“Justin was fabulous with our boy Seamus! He took Seamus on many hikes and walks with his precious dog Lulu and sent pictures and videos everyday. Justin went above and beyond for Seamus and even took him for a pup cup and gave him a bath. Seamus was beyond well cared for - he became a welcomed member of Justin's family. Would highly recommend Justin to care for anyone's pets - he was wonderful!”
“Kelly was SO AMAZING with Finny! He can be a little anxious and she was so kind to meet up before hand so he could feel more comfortable! She sent us so many pictures and updates and Finn had the best time- we will be booking again for sure!!! 5 paws!!!”

About: Hi! I’m a veterinary student home for the summer, and I’d love to help care for your pets while you’re away. I’m currently in vet school and have years of hands-on experience with dogs, cats, and more — both in clinical settings and at home. My experience includes walking, feeding, administering medications, and managing pets of all temperaments and sizes. I’ve also worked in animal hospitals and have a strong understanding of animal behavior, safety, and health. Growing up, I cared for my own pets and frequently dog-sat for neighbors and family friends — it’s always been second nature to me. Whether your pup loves belly rubs, playtime, or just needs a calm and reliable presence, I’ve got it covered. I’m responsible, responsive, and will treat your pet like one of my own. Let me know how I can make your pet’s day brighter while you’re away! I have a very flexible schedule with work right now, allowing me to take care of your pet's needs throughout the week whenever you need. When caring for pets in your home, I aim to keep your animals as comfortable and stress-free as possible by maintaining their normal routine. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medications to walks, potty breaks, and playtime. I make sure fresh water is always available and that your pet gets plenty of love, attention, and stimulation throughout the day. I will also make sure to be respectful of your space and tidy up after myself and your pet! Because I’m a veterinary student, I’m also trained to spot signs of illness or discomfort, and I’m confident handling pets with special medical needs or behavioral quirks. Whether your pet loves cuddling, playing, or quiet companionship, I tailor my care to what makes them feel at home.

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.
“Marna is just wonderful with our little dog. Marna is conscientious and kind . She is great at keeping us updated with posts and pictures. We highly recommend her.”
“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.”
About: I grew up dogs from the time I was little- labs, retrievers, shepherds- and had a special needs rescue dog with my partner for many years who lived to be fifteen. When she passed, my partner and I started boarding and house sitting regularly and have built up a pretty cute little pack. I am comfortable giving oral medication and upholding your dog’s schedule, house rules, and love to take field trips whenever possible. My favorite is when a dog can come with me everywhere, so smaller senior pups have become my specialty, but I can’t help but love all the dogs who come along. As a videographer and Maine youth basketball coach I have a lot of flexibility in my work schedule and spend a lot of time working from home editing videos. I’m fairly active, always happy to take breaks from work to walk around the neighborhood or find a pet-friendly beach to run around on. I’m in an apartment very close to Deering Oaks Park and the Western Prom. The apartment is a compact second story walk up and has been carefully maintained to keep it safe for curious noses.
“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!”
“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!!”
“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.”
About: I raised, trained, and cared for my family dog from a puppy when I was in high school. Post college I adopted a senior dog and cared for him for the last couple of years of his life. In the meantime I have been a sitter for friends and family dogs and cats over the years. I am used to giving medications (even when it needs to be disguised) and staying on a feeding schedules. I am very up for caring for senior dogs who want to lay around the house, and equally ready to go on long walks with a dog with more energy. I work from home always, so will be around during the day for pups who like to hang! I'm on the East End of Portland with the Eastern Prom very close by so plenty of places to walk and explore. I am usually out and about in the evenings for a few hours at a time. On the weekends I like to be busy, but can certainly adjust my time when I have a dog or cat around. I have a large one bedroom, and am on the 3rd floor. So my place is likely not good for pets with mobility issues (unless they are small enough that I can carry them). I live very close to lots of nature easily accessible and make a point to get outside often.
“Robin is so great! I’m thankful to have found her and Stella (her pup)! My 3-month old puppy was able to be cared for while I was away. Robin was super communicative and easy going.”
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.
“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.”
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).
About: I’m a reliable Portland dog walker with 20+ years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I genuinely enjoy working with dogs and building trust with each one, and I’m patient and calm with dogs that need a little extra time or attention. I provide safe, fun, and structured walks and am very comfortable handling multiple dogs while making sure each one gets the attention they need. My goal is always to keep your dog happy, exercised, and safe. You’ll receive updates and photos after every walk so you know exactly how things went. I’d love to meet your dog! I have a fully flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day to walk, feed, and spend quality time with pets, adjusting my hours to meet their needs. I’m passionate about caring for dogs and can dedicate the time needed to keep them happy, safe, and loved! I own two Italian Greyhounds whom are very friendly and cuddly, and my home has a fenced-in yard where we love to play. We take daily walks on the local trails, and visiting dogs are welcome on the furniture. When it comes to bed time, we have cozy beds in every room. I have one younger child who is great with dogs so there will be lots of love going around for your pet!
About: I've always loved animals, work for a veterinarian, have 2 dogs of my own (ages 13 and 16!). In addition to caring for the pets of friends and neighbors, I just genuinely love interacting with animals. I work part time for a veterinarian, so I'll have a lot of time to help out with your cats and dogs! In addition to basic needs, I plan to play snuggle and love on your pets. In and around your home, I will take your dogs for walks and playtime. For cats, I will make sure they are fed and not too lonely.
“Tara was a great sitter. Minnie got along great with her dog Rowan. Tara took great photos of Minnie and sent them to me during each day. On the second day, I got Minnie out of the car on her leash, and I handed It to Tara, and off Minnie trotted with no problem at all. She seemed to really be happy there. Thank you Tara!!!”
About: I know the answer to both sides of that question; having gone years without a pet, and then falling in love with a rolly, romping little pug who my partner and I were blessed to have 16 1/2 years. When we lost him, our hearts were broken, (and still are), and our home less rowdy and happy. Knowing I could never replace him, I've decided to open my home to those pups (and some cats) who need a place to camp out while moms, dads and families are away. And that's why I'm here on Rover. I work from home nearly every day and when not, there are cameras to monitor my four-legged visitors and I'm in to let your baby out during the day without fail. I live just off Portland's Eastern Promenade with plenty of room for walks and play. I'm a professional type with a background as a veterinary technician, (during college and a while afterward). The sweeter and more cuddly your baby is, all the better because I love doggy hugs, playing catch and babying friendly, non-aggressive dogs. Feel free to send me a note with any questions! *Please note that rates are based on the portion that the Rovver platform acquires from the fee paid by the customer. The platform takes a healthy amount from sitters and unfortunately, I must factor that in to what I charge for services. :( I have had and cared for dogs most of my life. I have a background as a veterinary technician and caregiver as well as volunteering for shelters and adoption programs. Whether sitting in your home or mine, I'm extremely attentive to established schedules like feeding time, medication schedules and the like. (I don't accept a lot of client site house sitting but when I do, I'm pretty tidy and often like spending time doing small house chores, so you'll never come back to a home more messy than you left it, and likely a bit cleaner. I love giving attention to dogs, (labs, goldens and pugs especially!). Clean/well groomed pets pretty much get the run of the house when it comes to hanging out on the sofa and, maybe even the bed. But your preferences for crating and sleep/rest time, like everything else will be strictly followed.

About: I have worked in a high end Inn doing dog massage and dog sitting. I have worked privately dog and cat sitting over the years. I enjoy the various individual personalities of peoples pets.
