“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.”
“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.”
“What can I say that gives this couple the credit they deserve. Amazing. Pepe didn't even want to come home. He was clearly well cared for, evident from the daily pictures and comments. I truly believe he had a much better time with Trisha than if he had stayed home. Will book again, for sure. Thanks so much!”
“We could not ask for a better dog sitter for our good boy! Elisabeth is truly a little dog whisperer—so caring, patient, and incredibly attentive to every detail. From the moment I met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs and understands their individual personalities and needs. She keeps us updated with lots of adorable photos and makes sure our dog felt completely at home, relaxed, and loved. The fun adventures she took them on made it feel like a real doggy vacation, not just a stay. Our dog comes home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It gives us total peace of mind to know our pup is in such loving and capable hands. We will 100% continue to book with Elisabeth again and recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional sitter! 🐾💛”
“Emily and Spencer were fabulous with Coco and I would highly recommend them! Emily was great with communication and sending pictures, which I really appreciated. You can tell that they really got to know and enjoy our dog, which meant a lot. Our dog was taking some medication during her stay and Emily did a great job administering them for us. I am looking forward to our Coco staying with them again!”
“Jaclyn and her family were wonderful! Henley had a fabulous vacation with lots of love and attention and other dogs to play with. Jaclyn sent photos and videos daily. She was flexible and communicative. I highly recommend her.”

“Heidi treats Duke as if he were her very own, showering him with love and attention! Duke absolutely adores his time there, always coming back with a wagging tail and happy memories. A huge thank you for the exceptional care you provide!”
“First of all, let me start by saying this couple is by far one of the nicest families I’ve met out here. Last minute booking and they welcomed my pup with open arms. Cassidy and Cody kept me up to snuff with day to day life while I was away and even sent pictures of them on adventures. They took great care of my pup and their sweet kids spoiled him with hourly cuddles and brushes so he came home looking like a million bucks. Thank you to the entire family for taking such great care of my boy. Aloha”
“Jeanne watched our two dogs while we went on vacation. One is older, one is young. Jeanne was extremely responsive from the introductory meeting to picking them up. She has a nicely fenced yard for several dogs and a barn area to let them run around and play. It worked out great. They both seem happy and relaxed after their stay with Jeanne. We recommend her if you are in the Southern Maine area.”
“Claudia and Jason are truly amazing dog sitters. They took excellent care of our large Aussiedoodle , who never likes to be separated from me. They took him on many varied walks and on one of them even got him a pup ice cream, had cuddle time, time for play and rest. He returned home calm, confident and tired. I fully trust Claudia and Jason and am so grateful to them.”
“Wowza!!!! Janice is amazing! Not only did she provide tender loving care for our dog, Pasquale, but she was sooooo accommodating when our flights were changed last minute. We could not have found a better match for our needs. We love Janice….XO😘”

“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.”

“I have rebooked Nikki multiple times to come check up on our kitty while we are away! He requires a specific urinary diet and Nikki always makes sure to feed him properly and keeps us up to date on his litter box habits since he has a urinary condition. It is a huge relief to have someone you can rely on so you can enjoy your trip away without worrying. Thank you so much Nikki!!”
About: I grew up with a Maine Coon and currently have 2 cats of my own. I got my first cat at 15 that I have been the sole caregiver of since then. She’s 11 now and has some medical needs, so I’m familiar with oral medication administration as well as senior care. I got my second cat in 2020 as a rescue when he was still a kitten. He’s been leash trained, sits on command, and is the biggest cuddle bug. From young to old I have experience with all sorts of cats.
“I’m very thankful for Julie! She took the time to come to my home ahead of time to meet the kitties and practice administering their oral medication. She was prompt and consistent with her care and I could tell my cats had less separation anxiety than usual. Thank you Julie!”
“Isabella helped me out on short notice when my typical sitter became unavailable, and she was awesome. Reliable, experienced, friendly, and flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend!”
“Cindy did a great job taking care of our cat. After meeting Cindy, I knew our kitty would be in good hands. Cindy asked appropriate questions and was genuinely interested in how to best meet the individual needs of our pet. Cindy sent a bunch of photos with each visit; she was very thorough and even cleaned up the litter box area as well as the cat dishes. Would definitely book her again!”

“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!”

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.
“We left our sweet Bichon with Cassidy while attending a wedding nearby. We received a pic of him during the wedding and felt reassured. We picked him up to find him in fine form, having played and cuddled like he does at home. Recommend.”
“Vanessa is the first pet sitter we have tried since moving out of state and we feel very lucky we found her. She is very caring and loving and her house and yard are very well suited for safety and comfort. Both Princess and I felt comfortable after our meet and greet. Princess had an excellent day there with Vanessa and her pup Pepper who is a very sweet and good boy! I highly recommend Vanessa and will definitely be booking more stays with her!”
“Seth and his family were so welcoming to Fiona! They were accommodating and attentive but also laid back and flexible! Fiona had such a good day she immediately fell asleep when we got in the care. Seth was easy to communicate with and was so easy to meet. Will definitely be booking with them again!”
“They were incredible... My dog is going through a shy phase and they couldn't have been kinder with him. They sent pics throughout the day and updates and the home and the yard were perfect for a dog to have a super fun day. These are seriously good people and we'll be using them again whenever we're in the area. The perfect family to leave your furry loved one with.”
“Lindsay is fantastic. She has been a lifesaver with our new pup. He always comes home happy and tired, and Lindsay always gives great updates so I know exactly how our pup has been throughout the day. I couldn’t recommend her more.”

About: I have had animals my whole life and have experience caring for a diverse range of pets, including dogs, cats, and other small animals of various sizes, ages, and temperaments. Even with a full-time job, I prioritize pet care by managing my time efficiently. I have flexibility in my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention they need for walks, feeding, play, and companionship. In a client's home, I maintain the same level of care by adhering to their pet’s routine and ensuring their environment stays clean and comfortable. I provide regular updates to the owner and follow any specific instructions they leave. My priority is to make pets feel safe and happy, whether they’re with me or in their own home.

About: Hi! I’m Khaila, I provide warm, reliable care with a focus on making every pup feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. I live in a cozy, dog-friendly home near the coast and love exploring local trails and parks. My Frenchie, Stuart, is a good boy who loves making new friends. I understand how important your dog is to your family, and when they’re with me, they’re part of mine too. 💛 I work from home most days and I perform better with a dog in my lap or at my feet ☺️ We’ll take breaks, walks, play at the local dog park, play at the beach, or hike local trails each day. When I’m visiting your home for care while you’re away, my focus is on playtime, walks, or just getting that energy out while ensuring your pets have all that they need. When they’re with my family, they’ll play hard, relax hard, and wag harder.

About: I recently adopted a Cockapoo named Lucy. She is a total sweetheart and loves people and other dogs. I previously owned my own Boxer, Ava, for 9 years. She passed away 2 years ago and so I started working for Rover to share my love, compassion and support to dog owners seeking companionship and enrichment activity for their dog. I am available to watch your dog during the week or weekends. Need a break from your dog so you can enjoy “me” time or have a nice weekend? Then reach out and contact me! I am a huge animal lover and therefore I am available to assist with daily activities (feeding, medications, potty time) and enrichment (walk & play time) including overnight boarding. I am a home owner that provides a 'cozy' and healthy environment. I have a large backyard and live in a nice area in Kennebunkport. I will always have your dog on a long leash to allow him/her to roam safely with me tagging along. I am someone who is very structured and believe that providing consistency & structure to a dog is very important. I do not believe in striking or hitting any animal no matter the reason. I will treat your dog with care like it is my own.
About: My super strength as a pet caregiver, is my interest in getting to know an animal's personality and working mindfully and respectfully with their nature. I prioritize safety, trust and attention. I've taught young children and raised kittens, puppies and chickens over the last twenty years. As a lover of Great Pyrenees (having raised three) and cats, I have great respect for the subtle and obvious efforts our animals use to communicate with us. I'm experienced with all ages. Senior pets are very dear to me. I've had the honor to provide comforting care for my own animals and provide tender touch, medications, dietary support, and a calm presence through their final months. I also love training and nurturing puppies. I am available to provide individualized day and overnight care for your pet(s) and plants. Contact me to discuss your short-term or longterm needs. I am especially interested in helping people feel at ease during holidays and vacations by providing qualified, experienced multi-day pet care. Mindfulness, kindness, and experience guide my services. I'm happy to travel to care for pets in the comfort of their home or mine! My place was designed for Great Pyrenees. I have a large, protective deck and fenced yard for supervised off-leash, outdoor time.
“Nicole has been wonderful with my 5mo puppy! She has a very warm, kind presence, and has been so accommodating and flexible with my difficult schedule. I really appreciate that she puts thought into rotating locations so my pup is getting plenty of mental stimulation. I can’t recommend Nicole enough!”
“Connie was awesome with Flyer and great at communicating with me! She was more than willing to come by before the time I needed her in order to meet Flyer and give him a short walk so that he could become comfortable with her. I will definitely be reaching out to her first the next time I need someone to watch my dog!”
About: I grew up with ferrets and guinea pigs, and currently have a dog! I've been pet-sitting for years, and have cat-sit for multiple families in my neighborhood. 🐈❤️ I'm currently working in Maine for the summer! I typically work 10-3 pm M-F, but am free most evenings and weekends. Feel free to reach out with any questions:) I am not currently offering in-home care, but I'm willing to come to yours! My main experience is with cats: providing them with wet and dry food, cleaning their litterbox, changing out their water, and playing with them. I have also dog-sit for dogs in my own home, with the main responsibilities being feeding them and bringing them on walks. However, I am flexible in terms of responsibilities and what works best for you and your pet. 🐾

I could tel Maybel enjoyed her time by the naps she took after we got home. Thank you Austin and family for taking such good care of Maybel for the weekend.”

We got daily posts and updates to show how he was doing. Made us feel very secure about using Marna in the future when we travel. I think Serge got a little spoiled actually. Came home with a new toy too! Thank you so much!”
