“My girl had a spectacular weekend. So much so she didn't want to go home :) I think she fell in love with the kids. I was a bit worried about her raw diet as some people can't handle it. Austin had no issues at all. The updates and pictures were a lovely bonus. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for boarding.”
“Hannah was communicative and friendly during Lexie's stay! She was confident in her ability to care for our dog even though we could not do a meet and greet because we were traveling from out of state. Dropoff and pickup were easy and quick. Thank you Hannah!”
“Finn had such a great time with all the pups! It was his first time staying overnight at a home other than his, and Jaclyn/Eric were wonderful at putting my mind at ease. They sent lots of videos and photos and were excellent at communicating throughout the week as needed. Such nice people who genuinely love dogs, couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Thank you!”
“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”
“Janice was wonderful. She accommodated us when we needed to make changes to our booking. She sent pictures and let us know how Sophia was doing. Sophia took to Janice immediately. She was exceptional in every way. We highly recommend her services.”
“Jeanne was fantastic! She understands not only dogs - but their owners. She listened to us and provided great feedback about Winston while we were away. This was our dog's first boarding situation and we would not hesitate to have Jeanne take care of him again.”
“Excellent and reliable. I got stuck in another state for an extra day due to a flight cancellation, and she was so helpful with watching my dog extra and flexible with a last minute change in plans. Used her services multiple times and always satisfied!”
“We were in a last minute bind for someone to watch our 4-month old goldendoodle, Peyton for a night while we attended a Christmas party and were not going to be home for around 6 hours. Trisha was so helpful in agreeing to watch Peyton for us on only a couple of days notice. Peyton had such a good time playing with Trisha and Dan's dog Stout - she slept in the next morning until 9am (she had been waking us up at 5:15am every morning!). Trisha was so flexible and easy to work with - thanks again! :) ”
“Our two dogs were very comfortable and happy there. One of our dogs has a lot of anxiety and does not like many people at all. She was very happy with Spencer and Emily. they obviously really love dogs! We highly recommend them!”
“Overall, our dog did well at Heidi’s house because he loves to be a pack animal and wishes he were at the dog park 24/7. This is not the place to go if your dog gets overwhelmed by other dogs. Although Heidi I was nervous when dropping Benny off at Heidi’s because about 30 dogs were staying at her house and it seemed very hectic upon arrival. I thought there were going to be way less dogs, and assumed from her profile photos that she had more of a kennel set up in her house. However, all went well and Benny came back safely. I was impressed by Heidi’s ability to keep up with all of the dogs she was watching, while maintaining communication with owners. Benny came back super exhausted and overstimulated, but I was thankful that he had a very active time and was distracted from being homesick. Heidi’s outdoor space for the dogs is huge and looks very secure, so her place would be perfect for the summer.”
“I had a last minute booking need come up and I’m so glad I did so I could meet Elisabeth! Elisabeth was so wonderful and caring to my dog. I was really excited to see she has other small dogs, and Louise had a blast running around with her crew. Elisabeth was incredibly caring, she sent really thorough updates and made Louise feel right at home after I left. I felt so at ease knowing my sensitive little dog was so well cared for and had some friends to play with. I would absolutely bring Louise back and highly recommend Elisabeth!”
“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!”
“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”
“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.”
“Christina was amazing with our granddogger, Roxie. Roxie is elderly and has special needs and Christina handled all of her needs with care and compassion. It's nice to know that we can go away and leave Roxie in good hands. I highly recommend Christina.”
“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!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 373 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Waterboro. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Waterboro sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Waterboro landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Waterboro home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Waterboro.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Waterboro sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ME ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
