Highly-rated overnight sitters - Kennebunk
“Janice was a very good communicator and provided me with many updates - including pictures - as she watched my pup. I was very comfortable with her caring for my pup. I would employ her again for sure!”
“Peter is great! Excellent communication. He is prompt in responding to questions around availability. Very accommodating as far as setting up a meet and greet. My dog Lola immediately took to Peter and his adorable dog Zeffy. Which is saying something because she is very cautious with new people and situations. Lola really enjoyed spending time with her new friends and I will definitely be using Peter again.”
“This is the first time we used the services of Jeanne Y. As dog sitter for our dog Crosby, an almost three year old active mixed breed (lab/boxer). We were very pleased with the overall e perience and would not hesitate to use Jeanne again or to recommend her services to our pet-owner friends. I really appreciated the opportunity to meet Jeanne prior to Crosby's stay. I also appreciated the pictures Jeanne shared with us of Crosby's stay. Crosby had to the opportunity to run in the large enclosed ring by Jeanne's barn. According to Jeanne, Crosby enjoyed socializing with other dogs staying on the farm over Christmas. The pictures JeNne shared with us showed this as well. We also appreciated Jeanne's flexibility in when we could drop off and pick up Crosby. Our experience with other kennels is that they are not often as flexible. ”
“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!”
“Trisha is very kind and flexible, and I felt very reassured to leave my somewhat nervous little dog with her for her first time away from family members. She is communicative with pictures and prompt responses. Best of all, I felt like she appreciated my furry friend!”
“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!”
“Louise is so happy getting out of the car at Elisabeth’s. She is so well cared for and Elisabeth always sends updates of what she’s up to and how much fun she’s having. So grateful to Elisabeth and highly recommend her and her sweet dogs!!”
“Katie was great with drop off and pickup. She administered Clover’s meds and was quick to get back to me when I communicated with her. She was also very flexible with my late pickup when plans changed, and I really appreciate that.”
“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.”
“My first Rover experience with my just turned one puppy. Nicholas was very friendly, sent me daily pictures, and most importantly my dog was well cared for and came home happy and I think a little improved by the experience :). I would recommend Nicholas unreservedly, and so would my dog Sadie. Thank You!!!”
“Kyle and Kaleigh have the perfect set up to watch our dog. We were completely comfortable leaving our pup with them and they were awesome about sending us pictures and communicating on how our dog was doing”
“John is amazing. Our little Arlo is afraid of everyone (except John) He almost didn’t want to come home with us. He took such good care of him. He will always be my go-to. One thing, your pup may be lackluster the next day from the exercise he got and missing John.”
“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 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!”

“Becca did an amazing job taking care of our 2 kitties! She sent thorough updates and pictures so we knew how things were going. She was very easy to communicate with and always responded quickly. One of our cats is on medication, and she was able to administer her pill and provide detailed updates so we didn’t have to worry about our cat’s chronic health issues. She went above and beyond taking care of the house, even taking out the trash for us when it got full. She was very detail oriented and we knew the cats were in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“Abigail was great to work with, and very pleasant. She took super "wildlife" pictures of my Fur People, and was prompt in communications. One of my cats is shy, but Abigail was able to get him to warm up to her.”
“Tyler was absolutely amazing! He was always on time, efficient and professional. He bonded with our pets, not an easy task, and they were thrilled when he arrived. He took the time to give the cats some much needed attention and sent great photographs at every visit. We have already rebooked him. I highly recommend Tyler!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Casey was amazing! She looked after our three cats, dropping by twice a day to feed them, play with them and give them snuggles. Communication was great! Would highly recommend you book with Casey!”
“Lori was great. She was very communicative with us and sent pictures. And understanding of our cat who was shy. I definitely would hire Lori again to watch our cat thank you, Lori!”
“Catherine was an amazing sitter for my cat Chitti! She had great communication skills and was very attentive to my girls body language and needs. I would definitely book her again for future sitting needs!”
“Nishat was amazing and we will certainly use her again in the future! Very attentive and caring to our kitties and followed all of the instructions. Thank you :)”
About: I've been a cat person my entire life, and caring for cats comes naturally to me. I understand that every cat has a unique personality—some are social and affectionate, while others prefer quiet companionship and routine. My goal is always to make cats feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their families are away. I'm attentive to details, respectful of your cat's normal routine, and patient with shy or cautious cats who may need extra time to warm up. My son is also a devoted cat lover, so cats have always been a special part of our family. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, lap time, or simply having a calm and consistent presence nearby, I'll provide the individualized care they deserve. I believe cat sitting is about more than feeding and litter box care—it's about understanding feline behavior, building trust, and making sure your cat feels secure in their own home. 🐾
About: I’ve always been passionate about dogs, and caring for them feels more like joy than work. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or making sure meals and routines are on track, I treat every pup like they’re my own. I know how important it is to trust the person looking after your furry family member, so I focus on keeping them safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. From energetic puppies to senior snugglers, I adapt to each dog’s personality and needs. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind — because your dog deserves more than just care, they deserve genuine attention and affection. I do live on a secluded piece of land with 60+ acres ideal for your pup to stay if needed! We have hiking trails throughout the property and a porch to soak up some rays! I have most weekends off and one day a week I work from home. I can also drop in for evening care when needed ! I have experience with reactive dogs so I’m highly aware of all situations. I’m alert so I can keep your dog safe as well as myself.
“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!”
About: Life-long pet lover with several years of dog walking experience. Also volunteered at the animal shelter, attended a dog training course, and took the vocational Health Occupations course in High School which included job shadowing at a vet's office. Scheduling should be pretty flexible. We are located in Wells & work part time locally. Please inform us what your needs are and we will try to accommodate! We live in an apartment so we will care for your dogs inside as well as giving them walks & allowing them in the yard on long leashes. Our two dogs will be overjoyed to have playmates, but if yours are shy or nervous we can keep them separated. Trips to the beach, dog park, or walking trails are also doable!
“Meagan was wonderful! She is very communicative and reliable, and was great about sending photos at each check-in. She even watered my plants! I returned home to a very happy kitty :) I would definitely book her again, and highly recommend her.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Kennebunk
“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!”
“My husband and I were in town for a funeral and needed a quick and great person to watch our 5month old Husky. We booked her 2x, back to back days and she was so quick to make space for our baby and we really appreciate that! Amanda was super easy to work with and Koda was so happy to see her the 2nd time around he jumped out of the car and didn’t even look back. We also communicated throughout the day for updates and that was really appreciated as a first time puppy mama!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Peter T knows his dogs. He is the most caring, knowledgeable, compassionate guy. My Rosie loved him from the get go. Look no further for the person who takes as much care and love as Peter T. I would drive from Massachusetts to Wells ME for this guy!!!! My husbands stress level dropped when we left her with him. On a scale of 1-5, i’d give him a 5 being the best st what he does.”
“Exceptional care and communication! Levi had a great experience and was well cared for. She was very happy with the care and the toys she had to play with. I highly recommend!”
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.
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.
“Ashley was AWESOME! We did a last minute booking and Ashley was very accommodating. We felt very comfortable leaving our Sophie with her. Sophie loved her time with Ashley, the walks and playing with her new friends. Ashley is knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about all of the dogs. We highly recommend Ashley ... she goes above and beyond making sure that all of the dogs needs are met. Thank you Ashley for making Sophie feel so welcome!”
“Kiley was amazing! She took excellent care of my German shepherd who has separation anxiety. She sent lots of great photos and even sent him home with a toy he fell in love with. She was easy to communicate with and was extremely flexible with my schedule.”
“We had an excellent experience with our dog sitter, Veska. She took amazing care of Oaits and was gentle, attentive, and highly professional throughout. She made sure to understand what Oatis’ needs were by communicating with us and kept us up to date through out the stay. It was clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and we felt completely at ease knowing Oaits was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter.”
“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: I've always had a natural connection with dogs since childhood. Dogs have always gravitated to my calm energy and ability to sense their needs. Your dog will not just be taken care of but will feel safe like they're spending time with an old friend. Retired computer nerd and musician available for dog walking and house visits most days of the week. Some dogs are welcome in our home with fenced in yard and 5 y.o. yellow lab Norma for playtime and companionship. My wife and I live in a wooded area in York with a large fenced in back yard. We are both retired and home most of the day to keep an eye on the pups. I am available for long or short visits to your home for dog walks and exercise to suite your needs. I am an avid walker and walk daily. I am fully insured with pet sitting/walking insurance.
“Great experience with Karen! Daisy has done two days of day care with Karen and each one has been wonderful. Daisy played with other dogs and was happy and relaxed each time we picked her up. Karen clearly loves dogs and knows how to look after them. Will definitely ask to book again!”
“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.”

“Lauren is a pup professional and our little dude, Rip, loves her. She’s reliable and always willing help when in a pinch! Even confirms and enforces our training practices during her visits. 10/10!”
About: I was a Certified Veterinary Technician in Colorado. I have been a dog walker in NYC and in Denver, I have walked many different breeds, and loved them all. I currently have 4 cats, two senior cats, one previously feral, and one with special needs. I am experienced at administering medication to both cats and dogs. Before I had cats, I had a Belgian Malinois/Australian Shepherd mix, so that's just to say I am also experienced with some of the more high energy and higher maintenance breeds. I have a good amount of availability these days. I currently set my own schedule of taking care of pets, and teaching private ballet lessons. I would offer dedicated care and attention to your pet while you are away. I'm happy to spend time playing or interacting with them as well as covering their other necessary needs ie. food, water, medications, bathroom breaks, or litter box cleaning.
“Abigail is so wonderful! She checked in on my precious Bubba and sent me adorable pics of him enjoying their walk through the neighborhood. I work long shifts and her updates helped set my mind at ease. Would absolutely book again, 10/10!”
“Theodora took Jerry’s walk request at the last minute! I am super grateful for her help. She walked Jerry and was super patient with his shyness. I am so glad to have had her help! Thanks again!”
“Ashley is so caring and thoughtful! She wants me and my dog to be comfortable, and really understands animals and thier needs. I feel very safe having my dog be taken care of by her! Thank you Ashley!”
“Catherine was absolutely great with our dog Maple. She did a meet and greet and asked thoughtful questions to ensure she knew the ins and outs of walking our pup. Catherine managed Maple incredibly well and took care in providing detailed rover cards of how the walks went!”
“Kiley is amazing! We needed someone to fill in last minute to walk our pup while we were away, and she was so quick to get back to us. She's just wonderful with our dog, will definitely call her again the next time.”
About: Hi! I'm pretty new to the community and have fallen in love with Maine. rates dependent on walk length and are negotiable!I work from home and am involved in the community. I took care of my dad for ten years (he had ALS) and am very compassionate and patient with caregiving. I'm here to help! I work from home five days a week 10-6, but am totally flexible/can swing by to take care of your sweet pets! If you prefer I stay at your house for a longer time to watch your pet, that works for me as long as I could bring my laptop. I don't currently have pets in my home, though I am allowed to bring small pets in as needed. I do have a large backyard.
“We had a fantastic experience with Tyler! From the start, his communication was excellent—he asked all the right questions to get to know Bailey and made sure she was comfortable. It’s clear they truly care about the dogs they walk. We loved the sweet photos and Bailey came back happy and well-exercised. We feel so lucky to have found such a great walker and highly recommend Tyler to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet caregiver!”
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!
