Personalized care for your dog or cat - Ring Hill
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Ring Hill
“Christina was great! My 2 typically take a while to settle in and can sometimes not eat for up to 24 hrs, but they both felt comfortable enough to eat the first night! That’s a huge win and shows how relaxed and calming her and the other dogs were. I will definitely book again for our next trip.”
“Alyx accommodated last minute changes in the booking. She communicated well while I was away and sent two photos. I have used her services once for in-home sitting and this time for boarding in her home and would use again.”
“My dogs had a great time with Lindsay! I felt comfortable knowing they were safe and cared for, getting lots of play time and lots of attention! She sent me pictures and updates throughout the stay with details about how they were that day!”
“Molly took our dog and guinea pig for ten days while we were out of town. It was the first time we have ever left our pets with a "stranger". Molly instantly put us at ease when we met her and our dog and hers quickly bonded. What's more is that our pup seemed to be looking for her playmates when she got home, almost sad to have left them behind! Thank you so much Molly for caring for our babies while we were gone - we will definitely be coming back to you in the future. :)”
“Breanna was AMAZING!! She took my 3 large Golden’s and 2 Persian cats on short notice for a week in her home. She checked in, sent me pictures, gave my old boy his meds. It was the best boarding experience i ever had. Feel safe and confident leaving your babies with her.”
“We booked Natalie for my elderly parent’s young beagle. It was their first time boarding a pet so they were nervous and didn’t quite understand the rules of drop-off & pick-up, etc. ( although I explained to them in detail) Natalie was understanding and responsive. She was kind and communicative, often sending several pictures and updates on their dog. Thank you, Natalie, for taking care of Schatzi and extending an extra day when we needed it. I know my mother was persistent with her constant messages, even when I kept assuring her the dog was fine & to leave you alone, lol! We appreciate your help!!!”
“Sarah was very responsive as we set up our meet and greet so she could get to know Mia. She has a great home and yard for hosting pups, and her little dog, Sweetie, was very excited to meet our Mia. We especially appreciated that Sarah was accommodating of our older dog's needs, especially with climbing stairs. Mia seemed happy and settled in well with Sarah's family. We would happily leave Mia in Sarah's care again.”
“Marissa was amazing with Fenway! She kept me updated all weekend with thoughtful messages and great pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. Fenway was clearly happy, comfortable, and having the best time in her care. He came home relaxed and it was obvious he was well taken care of. I really appreciated how responsive and attentive she was. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
About: I grew up on a large farm with show dogs! I have had dogs, cats and all farm animals my entire life and their happiness, care is always top of my priority! I work from home full time, so there will never be a period your fur baby will be left alone unless I need to run a quick errand. I have two dogs ( a shih tzu (7) and a mini schnauzer (6 months), we have two well behaved cats and 6 chickens that are enclosed in an outside area. We use a bell system on the doors for our dogs to tell us when they need to go outside and positive reinforcement at all times.
About: You can be sure that your sweet pup will get the time, love, care, and exercise that they need while they are in my care! I am currently stay at home with my four year old and own a cleaning company. I only clean a few hours a day Monday through Thursday so I’ll have plenty of time to play with a furry pal! I love to walk around our beautiful neighborhood several times a day to get plenty of steps in. We have a large yard in a safe neighborhood. The dog/dogs will be leashed and with me anytime we are outside. I have a large metal crate that the dog can stay in when it needs a rest!
“I was a bit uneasy at first to use a dog sitting app. 5 minutes on the phone with Matt and I was relieved. We met up a couple days before dropping Brandi off for her first time boarding and Brandi and Matt instantly hit it off and I couldn’t have been happier. Much better than taking a dog to a kennel and one very happy puppy.”
“Mariah, Kyle and family took good care of our 10 yr. old Portuguese Water Dog during our week long family vacation. They treated him like he was part of the family and he enjoyed being around their dog and another one they were also boarding. Having a fenced in yard was perfect for playing and getting exercise. They were easy to communicate with and wonderful about giving regular updates and sending photos.”
“Kathleen took great care of our Ellie. She seemed really happy with all the snuggles and adventures they went on while she was under Kathleen’s care. Definitely recomment if you’re looking for a kind and reliable sitter.”
“Ned was well taken care of, Chelsea was graciously accommodating of some changes and gave me great updates on Ned while I was out of town. Helped put me at ease leaving my little buddy behind.”
“Appreciated the last minute boarding — our 2 pups were happy when we picked them up and thoroughly enjoyed the “dog zone” and large fenced in yard. Kyle is calm and in control and really understands and appreciates the different dogs’ personalities and needs.”

“Kadie was absolutely incredible watching our two kitties while we were away for a week. She did everything perfectly, was communicative and kept us updated the whole time, and was just so kind, polite, and easy to work with. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. We felt so much better being away knowing our boys were in such good hands. We’re really grateful to have someone like her in the area and would highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Thank you Kadie!!!”
About: I have been taking care of cats my whole life from a young age and I have a cat of my own named Frankie who's a Maine coon. There have never not been cats in my home! I am very familiar sitting other peoples cats as I have been doing it for about 4 years. I also have experience administering medication/ insulin shots and I am always willing to learn how to administer any other medical necessities.
“Breanna was incredibly detail oriented and excellent at communicating. Looking for someone to watch my cat with a chronic condition (CKD) who struggles to eat and requires multiple medications was very stressful for me. Breanna took down notes and asked follow up questions for my kitty’s care. I felt so relieved to leave my kitty with someone I knew could provide thoughtful care. She eased all my anxiety around leaving my medically complex cat with great updates and photos. I absolutely will book with Breanna again! She has given me a new confidence when planning adventures that require me to be away from my kitty.”
“Brooke was terrific! She sent us plenty of photos, kept us up-to-date on our diabetic cat and was very comfortable calling or texting with questions (since we hadn't provided all of the answers). She was on time and extremely caring. We'll definitely be hiring her again.”
“We’ve known Kaylanna through Bath Brunswick Veterinary for years. We were so thrilled to find her here on Rover! Santo loves her! Kaylanna is kind, caring and responsive. We look forward to working with her again soon!”
“Maricela is a cat whisperer. One of my cats who always hides came out to spend time with her when she was cat sitting for us. She gave special attention to my older kitty and one neighborhood cat who only comes in at night. I worry about my cats, and I didn't worry at all with Maricela there. She sent me lots of pics as requested. Would definitely have Maricela back!”
“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!”
“Craig and Chelsea took phenomenal care of our kitties and chickens while we were away. They are always thoughtful and communicative, and I know our pets will be safe in their care. Thank you!”
“Alyssa was very kind and prompt with responses & updates! They sent many pictures of my cats having the time of their lives and accommodated their separate diets. I would definitely book Alyssa again and trust them with anyone’s pets. Thank you again for being able check in on such short notice!!”
“Jackie was great. She came back for an extra visit to be sure our pup had another chance to go to the bathroom. We'll definitely ask for her help next time we have to leave our pup at home.”
About: If you want your pets/children/homes well taken care of give me a call! I will make sure all of your needs are met if you hire me! I plan on freeing up my schedule to do more jobs through the day instead of one full time job. Help me get started by hiring me! If I was in the position to hire someone to babysit, house sit, or pet sit, I would want someone to take all of my requests seriously and do a good job so that’s what I do!
About: I’ve owned cats my entire life. I’m the go to person in my family and friends group when someone needs help with their cats whether it’s getting medications into them or basic grooming.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Ring Hill
“This was our first experience with doggie daycare and we couldn't have been more pleased. Christina kept us very well informed throughout the day. I would recommend her highly.”
“Marissa watched our dogs when we went skiing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them with her! They had a great time at her house and she sent us pictures of their day. She was incredibly nice and we will definitely reach out again!!”
“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.”
“Natalie watched our 13 week old puppy and she had an amazing day! Great care with the added bonus of so much socialization. Our puppy had a fantastic time and passed out on the ride home. Five stars is not enough!”
“Lindsay was fabulous. And our 2 pups really enjoyed their stay - including a dip in the baby pool that they loved. We were especially pleased to find she had moved and was only 6 minutes from where we stayed. Apparently Rover won’t let her change her address! She is now in Whitefield ME”
“We are so grateful we found Craig to dog sit for our puppy Enzo. Enzo is a highly energetic dog who takes some time to warm up to strangers, however, he took no time to adjust to Craig. Craig kept us updated through out the day with pictures and videos. We could tell right away that Enzo was having an awesome time. When we picked up Enzo he was tired (from all the fun he had with Penny) and overall just calm and happy. We highly recommend Craig for doggy care!”
About: I have experience with puppies, training, dogs with anxiety, geriatric dogs and more. I also have experience with complex health needs and care in dogs. I work from home as a travel agent. I realized one of the biggest concerns for travelers was their dogs and the thought of having to use kennel services. Since I have the ability to be with the dogs all day it made sense to offer my home and a family setting. Our dog Sweety sleeps with us at night and so do our guest dogs. Unless that isn’t happening at home. The dogs we care for are like family during their visit. We live in a very private setting. While we don’t have fencing, we do have a large private yard on a private dirt road. We live on 5 acres.
About: I am a reliable pet sitter with several years of animal care experience. I provide safe, attentive, and compassionate care for dogs, cats and other pets of all sizes and ages! I am patient and committed to maintaining your pet’s routine while you are away. I offer dog boarding, drop-in visits, and doggy daycare. I live in a country setting with a very large backyard that provides plenty of space for exercise, playtime, and potty breaks. I also have a beautiful walking trail and a 40 acre field directly off my backyard for dogs that love to run! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your pet care needs or to schedule a meet and greet! Since pet care is my full-time focus, I’m able to stay consistent with feeding times, potty breaks, and any special instructions. My schedule is built around the pets in my care, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care and maintain each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and at home. I have three small, friendly Chihuahuas and a cat. They’re all well behaved and have always done well with other animals. If needed, I can easily keep them on a separate floor to make sure visiting pets feel comfortable and have their own space.
“Thank you for taking care of Ramsay! Jaclyn took great care of Ramsay and was so communicative with us about how he was doing. She took beautiful photos of him too! Clearly loves animals. Anytime we are in the area we will book with you!”
“Chelsea took such great care of our pup. We reached out to her last minute and she was available and eager to help us with our dog. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely reach out to her. Thanks again, Chelsea!!”
“I found Tyler to be a very responsible dog owner who truly enjoys caring for dogs of all sizes. He is very compassionate, patient and understanding when it comes to ensuring your dog has a safe and fun filled day. Tyler and his dog Clarence treated my Great Dane puppy just like family. My puppy absolutely adores both of them tremendously!! I would highly recommend Tyler for your dog sitting needs. He goes above and beyond!”

“Molly is so sweet and kind it made leaving our baby a little easier. She was so understanding with our timeline changes and open to do whatever we need. She sent pictures and let me ask a million questions and it was peace of mind. I would 10/10 recommend Molly!!”
“As usual- Liseli was wonderful!! We received wonderful pictures and reports. It was great being able to enjoy a day with family and know that Elvis was getting some special loving of his own!”
“Nathan accommodated us on short notice and hosted our dog for 14 hours of daycare. He was responsive, super flexible with the long hours and early drop off, and exceedingly capable/confident with our high energy shepherd/pit mix. We highly recommend him!”

“Rebecca is wonderful with our dog. He comes off as scary at first but within a walk he was so happy to see Rebecca and being able to go run a bit. Cannot recommend her enough!”
About: Hello! I am new to Rover but I have been working with animals all my life from a very young age and I have been pet sitting for about 4 years. There were always pets in the home, mostly dogs and cats all my life and I have thorough experience being around animals and knowing how to take care of them. I took a major part in taking care of the puppies that my family bred most of my childhood, I have experience in working with a variety of animals such as dogs, cats, reptiles, roosters/chickens, horses, guinea pigs, etc. Besides working with my own pets I have been pet sitting for around 4 years now and have become very comfortable working with other peoples pets. I pride myself on my attention to detail and focus on making sure your pet/pets are as comfortable as possible. I am currently a student but most of my classes are online so I am very flexible and available pretty much every day of the week currently. I am able to be intuitive and approach every animal with the care and attention that is specific to their needs. I am sensitive to boundaries and always making sure to focus on listening to what they are communicating.
About: I have owned animals my whole life. Working with dogs is my passion. I have over a year of working with dogs in a shelter setting of all sizes and most breeds. I am fear free certified. I have handled more challenging dogs and really easy dogs. I know how to read a situation and think a head. I’m all about positive reinforcement and fear free. Any questions? I would love to chat! I’m looking to build my own client base from the ground up, working with dogs is my desire. I typically make my daily routine around work. The owners are in control. Tell me your pups needs, and I can provide them! A simple short walk, a hike, dropping in to feed and a quick potty break. I’m open to your needs and wants, do not hesitate to ask.
“From the original meet and greet to the care of my dog over the last couple days, Craig and Chelsea have been phenomenal. Very organized and genuine in wanting to provide the best care possible for you pet. Highly recommend!”
About: Experienced dog owner with 3 dogs. Two dogs are reactive/timid, one of which has allergies and pancreatic issues so I am familiar with pilling and dogs with special needs. I am currently a full time law student looking for something with a flexible schedule. I have availability in the morning, late afternoon, and evening as well as weekends. I think it’s important to be attentive to your animals needs, and also make sure to follow the rules of the house. Please let me know if you have any specific dos or donts for your pet!
About: I have had dogs and taken care of dogs and cats since childhood. In my more recent years I have dog sat for family members and neighbors. I have enjoyed being able to give peace of mind to them knowing their pets are safe, happy, and cared for. Owning a dog and cat myself I understand the stress and fear of having to leave your pets. Whether it’s work, vacation and other life events it can feel like you’re leaving a piece of your heart behind while you’re away. I strive to bridge that gap and be able to provide peace of mind. My dog is a rescue and came to me with some behavioral challenges: fear, reactivity, resource guarding and separation anxiety. Since being with me he is a thriving boy with manners and is learning new skills and tricks every week! That being said I don’t scare easily and have experience managing a variety of behaviors. I know from experience leaving a pet that has some big feelings at times can be even more challenging and thats where I come in. To offer you peace of mind knowing your dog or cat will be safe and cared for with me. I firmly believe in the saying no bad dogs and would love to get the opportunity to take one worry off your plate while you are away! I have summers off and am able to be around as much or as little as needed for your pet in the summers as that is a busy time for vacations. I do structured schedules with play, train walk and rest times with pets. I can also create scheduled enrichment times throughout our time together. I try to cater what we are doing based on needs of the dog so they are fulfilled.
“Kourtney did an excellent job walking and feeding our two dogs. She also sent us great pictures and videos which were a blast to watch. Great communication and responsiveness. Highly recommend!”
About: Ever since the family cat had kittens when I was four years old, I have been drawn to the care of animals. Honoring the lives of pets as our friends has been a source of inspiration and therapy for myself personally. As a working artist, taking the time to care for animals has been such a privilege and the perfect change of pace while I continue to work on creative projects. I have a German Shepherd that I keep separated from the work I do with other animals. I am located at a small farmhouse in Augusta that has a huge yard with two a-joining fields. There is more than enough room to explore the surround with your pet. I am also an avid walker so exercise is big for me generally.
About: Hello my name is Brooke! I am a recent high school graduate at I will be attending college at Smcc studying early childhood, I will be commuting to and from daily ( this makes me have a pretty flexible schedule to help! )I am free most days of the week and have 2 German Shepard dogs of my own ! I also have grown up around dogs the last 18 years of my life. Something that sets me apart from the other sitters is that I have experience with senior dog care and being able to take it slow, or if you have the complete opposite dog im able to meet their energy needs as well. I have handled big dogs that are reactive, have sensitive triggers, and small dogs of the same, im able to meet their needs! I do not at this time do overnight stays, im okay with coming to hangout and play, take them outside, or feed the dogs or cats but I will not be staying in the home. Looking forward to hearing from you! I am a newly graduate from Morse high school and I will be going to Smcc to study early childhood development and in my off time I enjoy dogs and cats a lot that I choose to help others who may need help in my off time from school, this makes me have a very flexible schedule. I prioritise making a safe environment for every pet in my care, in your home or out on a walk, I take the time to understand their routines and get to know them. For dog owners, I am very confident in walking big and small dogs, those who may have reactivity or need extra leash awareness making them enjoyable for the animal. For cat owners, I will be able to stop in for a time limit we discus and meet the needs of the cat for the day, I make sure each cat feels safe while you are away.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs since 2014 and have been actively caring for them since 2015. I love both cats and dogs and am very familiar with playtime, feeding, and bedtime routines. I have a flexible schedule at my full-time job. So I would have to compare my schedule to make sure I have your pets care as a priority. Depending on routine, I'm okay with walks, outdoor playtime and any other needs you have for your furry friend. I'm not allowed dogs in my home. However, before my move I had a dog run and a big yard where my dog at the time could just run and feel like a puppy again.
About: I bring patience, responsibility, and genuine care to every pet I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them like my own—with kindness, consistency, and plenty of playtime. I'm great with routines, quick to notice changes in behavior or mood, and always send updates to keep you in the loop. Whether your pet is shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, I take the time to build trust and make them feel safe and loved. As a teacher on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m reliable, organized, and plan my days around the needs of the pets I’m caring for. Whether it's daily drop-ins, feeding schedules, or just making time for extra play and snuggles, I build pet care into my routine with the same consistency and attention I bring to the classroom. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—feeding, playtime, medications, litter box cleanup, and more—and I always respect the home like it’s my own. I take time to bond with each pet, offering plenty of love, attention, and calm companionship. I also send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and your home is in good hands.

Some special skills that I possess would be I’m very patient loving person who has a very big heart when it comes to animals and I can’t wait to have a future caring for them. I work part-time and do an online education program I’m pretty much free for the rest of day. Currently working on getting my license so I can be more reliable with transportation to get there.

“Christina was great! My 2 typically take a while to settle in and can sometimes not eat for up to 24 hrs, but they both felt comfortable enough to eat the first night! That’s a huge win and shows how relaxed and calming her and the other dogs were. I will definitely book again for our next trip.”
“Alyx accommodated last minute changes in the booking. She communicated well while I was away and sent two photos. I have used her services once for in-home sitting and this time for boarding in her home and would use again.”
“My dogs had a great time with Lindsay! I felt comfortable knowing they were safe and cared for, getting lots of play time and lots of attention! She sent me pictures and updates throughout the stay with details about how they were that day!”
“Molly took our dog and guinea pig for ten days while we were out of town. It was the first time we have ever left our pets with a "stranger". Molly instantly put us at ease when we met her and our dog and hers quickly bonded. What's more is that our pup seemed to be looking for her playmates when she got home, almost sad to have left them behind! Thank you so much Molly for caring for our babies while we were gone - we will definitely be coming back to you in the future. :)”
“Breanna was AMAZING!! She took my 3 large Golden’s and 2 Persian cats on short notice for a week in her home. She checked in, sent me pictures, gave my old boy his meds. It was the best boarding experience i ever had. Feel safe and confident leaving your babies with her.”
“Natalie was very friendly and comfortable with Millie and her requirements. Safe environment and provided a report and photos during the stay. Will definitely book other stays for Millie with Natalie.”
“We booked Natalie for my elderly parent’s young beagle. It was their first time boarding a pet so they were nervous and didn’t quite understand the rules of drop-off & pick-up, etc. ( although I explained to them in detail) Natalie was understanding and responsive. She was kind and communicative, often sending several pictures and updates on their dog. Thank you, Natalie, for taking care of Schatzi and extending an extra day when we needed it. I know my mother was persistent with her constant messages, even when I kept assuring her the dog was fine & to leave you alone, lol! We appreciate your help!!!”
“Sarah was very responsive as we set up our meet and greet so she could get to know Mia. She has a great home and yard for hosting pups, and her little dog, Sweetie, was very excited to meet our Mia. We especially appreciated that Sarah was accommodating of our older dog's needs, especially with climbing stairs. Mia seemed happy and settled in well with Sarah's family. We would happily leave Mia in Sarah's care again.”
“Marissa was amazing with Fenway! She kept me updated all weekend with thoughtful messages and great pictures, which gave me total peace of mind. Fenway was clearly happy, comfortable, and having the best time in her care. He came home relaxed and it was obvious he was well taken care of. I really appreciated how responsive and attentive she was. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”

About: I grew up on a large farm with show dogs! I have had dogs, cats and all farm animals my entire life and their happiness, care is always top of my priority!

I have two dogs ( a shih tzu (7) and a mini schnauzer (6 months), we have two well behaved cats and 6 chickens that are enclosed in an outside area. We use a bell system on the doors for our dogs to tell us when they need to go outside and positive reinforcement at all times.
About: You can be sure that your sweet pup will get the time, love, care, and exercise that they need while they are in my care! I am currently stay at home with my four year old and own a cleaning company. I only clean a few hours a day Monday through Thursday so I’ll have plenty of time to play with a furry pal! I love to walk around our beautiful neighborhood several times a day to get plenty of steps in. We have a large yard in a safe neighborhood. The dog/dogs will be leashed and with me anytime we are outside. I have a large metal crate that the dog can stay in when it needs a rest!
“I was a bit uneasy at first to use a dog sitting app. 5 minutes on the phone with Matt and I was relieved. We met up a couple days before dropping Brandi off for her first time boarding and Brandi and Matt instantly hit it off and I couldn’t have been happier. Much better than taking a dog to a kennel and one very happy puppy.”
“Mariah, Kyle and family took good care of our 10 yr. old Portuguese Water Dog during our week long family vacation. They treated him like he was part of the family and he enjoyed being around their dog and another one they were also boarding. Having a fenced in yard was perfect for playing and getting exercise. They were easy to communicate with and wonderful about giving regular updates and sending photos.”
“Ned was well taken care of, Chelsea was graciously accommodating of some changes and gave me great updates on Ned while I was out of town. Helped put me at ease leaving my little buddy behind.”
“Appreciated the last minute boarding — our 2 pups were happy when we picked them up and thoroughly enjoyed the “dog zone” and large fenced in yard. Kyle is calm and in control and really understands and appreciates the different dogs’ personalities and needs.”
