1. Megan K.
“Megan went above and beyond for my pups. This was the first time that I’ve boarded my dogs, so I was extremely hesitant and toured a few major pet hotels in the area. When I saw Megan’s profile on Rover, I knew instantly it was the right choice. She sent me several updates throughout each day and provided many pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. I wanted to pick them up at an extremely late time, and she accommodated that as well. She sent my pups home smelling fresh with a new bandana and bow, plus some homemade treats. I was so impressed by her care and love for my babies. She is very attentive and answered all of my messages within minutes. When dropping them off, she double checked that they weren’t on any medication in case she needed to give them some. I would trust her any day and night and will plan on using her in the future ❤️”
2. Erin P.
“Erin is excellent with dogs of all kinds. She herself has cared for a variety of dogs with different conditions. She has watched my 70ish lb male dog several times and he's been very well cared for. He enjoys spending time in her yard and getting lots of pets from Erin. My dog (Jack) fits right in with her dogs who are all very friendly. Highly recommend!”
3. Christina P.
“We are so glad to have found Christina to watch our Piper while we were away. Christina was kind and professional, took great care of Piper and overall offered a wonderful home away from home!”

About: People say I am an animal whisper. Specifically pets. However, I don’t consider myself a whisperer. I call it RESPECT. I treat any animal like it’s my own (I have 5) and I get on the same level with the furry friend (both literally and intellectually). And yes, people may think I’m weird because I talk to the animals out loud but I believe animals who are living organisms (like people) get RESPECT! I currently work part-time. But that won’t stop me. I have 4 days off usually through out the week. Depending on my schedule I’m going to provide services on my days off of my part time job. If a time will not work for both you and me then I will make a priority to try and arrange a time to provide a service as soon as possible. I will walk your furry companions as long as you would like. If it’s really hot out no matter if it’s a short or long walk, I can bring a container and a thing of water as well as during the walk. I will provide rest breaks in the shade. Pet sitting I will play with them, make sure there food is always available (clients preference) and if they need to go out I’ll be happy to take them out.
5. Ava S.
“Ava provided a loving, supportive home for my overly attached and anxious dog while we traveled for the holidays. I’m so glad we found her. Thank you!”
6. Alex L.
“Alex took great care of our lab. She communicated well, staying in touch with texts and pictures. We would definitely book another stay with Alex!”
7. Lindsay S.
“Gianni’s had a great time with Lindsey! She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times as well as being a great communicator. We loved the report card that was sent home with him. Will definitely be booking again if we take another trip!”
8. Jennifer M.
“We had a great experience having Jen care for Jadie. We loved that she had a lot of knowledge dealing with high energy dogs and provided a positive experience for Jadie to play with her dogs. We will definitely use Jen to care for Jadie again!”
9. Deborah P.
“We really appreciate Deborah taking such good care of our dog, Blu, while we were away for several days. He enjoyed having other dogs to play with and the ability to play outside in her fenced in yard. He came home tired and happy! Will definitely use her services again in the future.”
10. Jennifer S.
“My dogs had a great stay at Jennifer's and seemed to feel really comfortable there. She made sure my older dog took all of his medication and got him to eat his food (he doesn't always eat much while away). I got updates and photos/videos throughout the weekend. Would definitely recommend Jennifer!”
11. Alanna R.
“Amazing sitter, kept us updated the entire time and sent photos with every update. Alanna made sure our little girl was well taken care of and comfortable. Will definitely return for any future trips. ☺️♥️”
12. Julie M.
“I have known Julie for decades, and would trust her with my own beloved pet or even my children. Julie is very responsible and dependable, she also has an abundance of energy needed for keeping up with the most energetic of pets. You can’t go wrong with Julie.”
13. Emma B.
“Emma has been our farm sitter of choice for years. At 16 years old, she was far more responsible than many older adults. She is capable, knowledgeable and willing to work. She clearly loves all animals and can handle difficult situations with a calm, cool head. I have the very highest regard for her!”
14. Erin D.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a little kid and helped my parents at my uncle’s farm. I truly love all animals and enjoy their individual personalities. I have experience dog/house sitting dating back to 2000 in the Camden area. Since we moved last year, I’m looking to meet new clients and help you with your furry loved one in the Waterville area. I worked in animal hospitals in my early 20s so I have a great wealth of knowledge to draw from in many areas (but not exotic pets, as none of the veterinarians I worked with had that as a specialization.) I’m currently working from home doing some freelance work and have many opportunities to go for walkies. We are currently without a dog in our home, and I’m looking to get out more. Any pet I take care of is treated as if they’re a member of the family. I believe in spoiling pets with love, but keeping the boundaries of the owner so as not to undo any training. Reinforcing good behavior is always a priority.
15. Aleisha T.
About: Hey there! My names Aleisha and I started working with Rover years ago and have had an incredible time meeting all kinds of dogs. I enjoy Rover because it allows me to do something I LOVE while also bringing in my share of income. I'm an avid hiker and love the outdoors which makes me the perfect partner to your pup for walks. It's very important to me to make sure my client and their pets are very happy and comfortable! I try my hardest to provide above and beyond care for your loved ones and treat them as my own. I absolutely love dogs and am looking forward to meeting yours! I'm a stay at home mom, so I'm home often and have great availability (unless out adventuring) and ready to care for what your animals needs at any time. With that being said, I'll ask that your pup is kid friendly and dog friendly. I have experience with lots of different breeds, and lots of animals not including dogs. Please let me know of any safety concerns you may have so I can make those my top priority while caring for your pets.

“Wonderful as always! Took special care of my kitties, even willing to give one of the cats oral medication without a problem. Will always come back as I know they will be in loving arms.”
17. Marissa G.
“Literally couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitting experience! Our two dogs had the best time and we were provided with pictures and updates throughout! Perfect environment for pups and we will definitely be returning!”
18. Tanya W.
“Tanya is amazing! Dexter loves staying with Tanya. He gets spoiled rotten in the best way when he goes to see Tanya. He gets so much outside time and even has his spot on the couch. I’ve brought Dexter to Tanya multiple times and will definitely bring him to her again. She really is the best!”
19. Vanessa H.
“Vanessa sent several updates and pictures during Otis’s stay and when I picked him up he seemed calm and comfortable. He clearly enjoyed his night with her and she must have been entertaining because he’s been sleeping since we got home! Otis can’t wait to go back and see Vanessa again soon!”
20. Katie K.
“Katie was amazing with the dogs, and I know my boys can be a lot to handle at times. She went above and beyond with her kindness and hospitality.”
