“Debbie watched our dog on two days while we enjoyed the park and Bar Harbor. She has a perfect setup at her new home for taking care of your dog. She sent pictures throughout the day and was very considerate of my dog’s needs and making sure she was comfortable. Definitely recommend to others!”
“Our 11 month old, rambunctious cavalier King Charles spaniel had a wonderful vacation with Emily and Leroy! She went to the beach, on wonderful walks, and had great lap naps. She will definitely be back to visit her new friends the next time we go out of town.”
“I couldn’t have been happier with Karen and her family’s care for my dog Moxie. They were extremely attentive and got to know her quickly. Moxie absolutely loved playing with their dog. Karen sent multiple pictures every day. Moxie was there for a week, and while I definitely missed her, I never worried about her once. Thanks, Karen!”

“Meghan did an amazing job checking in on our cat while we were away! She was professional, kept our house clean, and most importantly, our cat was happy and comfortable. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Kirk was an awesome pet-sitter. He was on-time and attentive to our two cats, and was diligent in providing updates and photos for each visit. We'd definitely book with him again.”
“Julia took very well care of our cats! This was our first time using the Rover app, and it can be difficult welcoming a stranger into your home. Julia was very welcoming and kind that it made us comfortable. We were gone for 2 1/2 weeks and she was responsive and detailed in her visits. We will definitely use Julia in the future for any cat sitting needs!”
“Kelly was absolutely amazing! She made sure our two kitties were happy and healthy during our vacation. She left us notes about her visit every day and coaxed our shy girl out from under the bed. More importantly, when our flight was delayed on the way home, she was in constant communication to make sure that our little ones were well covered. She offered to run over here in the event that we did not make it home on time. We would absolutely use her again!”
About: I have had numerous cats throughout my life. Currently, I have one Maine Coon named Melvin that is over 15 years old. We just lost his sister Meatball about 6 months ago so my focus has been on giving Melvin the best quality of life possible. I would love to be able to do the same for your cat(s)!
“This was our second booking with Lise to care for our Maine coon cat. Her care for Chico and our home was again exceptional and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for pet care. She sent photos and updates daily, so we could see that Chico was relaxed and happy, and went above and beyond in leaving the house as clean as she found it, even washing all the bedding. Thank you, Lise!”
“Megan was great, very communicative and I appreciated all the pictures and updates she sent. The house was all taken care of, and my girls were happy - just the peace of mind I needed when working with a pet sitter.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 12 years and genuinely love spending time with dogs of all personalities and energy levels.

I’m patient, dependable, attentive to routines, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m also comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or attention.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel as stress-free as possible while you’re away. I’m attentive, reliable, and experienced caring for pets with different energy levels and temperaments.I’ll provide a calm, clean, loving environment with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and updates for peace of mind.

“Debbie is amazing!! She provided quick and thorough communications before and during the visit. She was also flexible when our schedule changed a bit! Obi had the best time with her and she was amazing about introducing him to the other doggies, keeping him entertained, and following his care routine. He came home tired and happy!! Thanks Debbie!”
“Karen was quite accommodating with my work schedule and looked after my dog Nora on the 4th of July. When she returned Nora to me, Nora seemed happy to see me but also happy with Karen and her daughter. The pictures Karen submitted of Nora interacting with her dogs was great to see as well. Along with the progressive updates throughout her care. Thank you so much and I would certainty recommend Karen to everyone.”
“Our dog Rosie had the absolute best time with Charlotte and her two adorable dogs! We are staying near Acadia and attended a wedding during our stay. Charlotte took the very best care of Rosie and we were thrilled that our best girl had the time of our life while we were away. We loved getting photos and updates from Charlotte of Rosie playing and running around outside, playing with toys inside and snuggling up at night. It was so clear that our girl was totally comfortable and so very loved. Charlotte was so personable and kind as we planned the details of our trip, and totally flexible with our timing. Working with Charlotte was all around the most perfect experience. Thank you so much!”

“Kirk was fantastic to work with all around! He accommodated my short-notice request and took time to meet me and my dog ahead of time, which I greatly appreciated since it was my first booking with him. He walked the dog for longer than anticipated and was patient when the dog was hesitant to leave the house at first, and he took the time to clean him up a bit since it was a rainy day. I highly recommend Kirk’s services!”
“Megan was the best! She accepted a few walks for our dog fairly last minute, was very responsive and reliable! Griz absolutely loved her and it seems like had a great time together :) she took him on long walks, sent lots of pictures and communicated throughout! Highly recommend!! Thanks Megan!”

About: Hello! I'm Ashley. I am 35 years old. I am from Stuart, FL. I will be returning to work and live in Bar Harbor, ME for the fall season from Sept 22 through December 1, 2026. I have always been an animal lover and if I could afford a farm and have every type of animal in it... I would. I have owned, dogs, fish, and birds. I have had dogs most of my life. I had a Jack Russell who lived to be 11 years old named Romeo...He was a ball of energy, he had eye problems and needed drops daily. I also had a Rat Terrier named Oliver, we bought him at a year old. He lived to be 14 years old. Most recently my sister currently has a mini golden doodle, who is 4 years old. I loved taking my dogs on the trails in the parks. If I didn’t travel so much, I would love a dog of my own. I work seasonal contract jobs outside the National parks, mainly in the summer season. I go walking everyday & I would love to bring your pup with me. I am renting a shared apartment so I will not be able to bring them to my place. I will happily come to your hotel or house!
About: I’ve taken care of various animals since I was 13, including dogs, cats, and a hedgehog. I’m experienced in walking, grooming, and caretaking of smaller to medium sized animals. I’m also very comfortable with senior care through first hand experience with my own elderly pets, including three dogs, two cats. Two of them being dachshunds. I’m currently working-part time. I have a block schedule with classes on Monday/Tuesday/Friday, leaving me with ample hour long breaks between, with mostly evening classes, so I should have plenty of time with your pets! I love walking dogs, keeping things clean, and paying attention to your pets needs. When I house sit, I keep their feeding schedules on track, give any medication, and spend time with them in the way that makes them most comfortable. My own dog isn’t big on cuddling, but I’ve spent time with dogs that need that extra love and I will base that on their cues!

About: Hello! I'm Jess - I'm originally from Northern California and moved to Maine in 2025. Growing up I always had dogs (and sometimes cats), and learned to take care of pets from a young age. I was the go-to person in my neighborhood for petsitting, drop-in visits and dog-walking. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies! I'm now a full time pet-sitter! I am available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and long-term petsitting in your home. Additionally, I'm available for dog walking during the daytime. I love making every animal feel cared for - from playing with them, going on long walks outside, providing pets and cuddles, giving them occasional treats, etc. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I also love to send little text and video updates, so you can check in on them while you're away. I've even done FaceTimes with pets and their owners!
