“Sandy was great! My pup wasn’t feeling the best and Sandy did everything she could to make her comfortable. She really treated my girl the same way I would and I can always appreciate that. She was also great with sending pictures and communicating. Will for sure return to her.”


“This was our 2nd time using Debra, and we will definitely use her again. You can tell she has a love for these animals, which is exactly what we were looking for. Bobo has a great time with her and her dogs, they all get along wonderfully. I would highly recommend Debra!”

“Lisa took great care of Lulu. It usually takes her a few days to bounce back to normal after boarding, but after the week with Lisa she was her normal self right away. Eating, sleeping and playing like her normal self. Lisa was also great about communicating with us during Lulu’s stay with her. Will definitely book with Lisa again.”

“Cindy was great with our 9 month old dog Max. We did a meet-and-great before our trip to see our home and so she could meet Max. It really put our mind at ease, since this was the first time we were leaving him with someone. She took great care of Max and sent pictures and updates every day of our 5 day trip. We loved that she has a fenced in yard and all the individual attention she was able to provide him. He came home happy and in great shape.”

“Fantastic service! Very accommodating to my travel schedule with pick-up & drop-off. Great communication in very timely way including daily updates. Very knowledgeable of dogs, and how she introduced my dog to her two. Even allowed me to meet her pups. I’m in process of booking again, and very grateful for Lisa and her thorough care of Winston!”

About: What sets me apart is my experience caring for pets with diverse personalities, health conditions, and behavioral needs. I have helped care for a Husky for nine years, managing health challenges and providing consistent, patient care. I also care for rescued cats and have experience pet sitting cats that require special attention around other animals. I focus on building trust, following routines, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine. I care for my own cats every day and have experience providing care for both dogs and cats through feeding, playtime, exercise, medication schedules when needed, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to dedicate time to walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting while ensuring each pet receives attentive, reliable care and plenty of affection. When caring for pets, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, administering basic care instructions, and giving pets plenty of attention and companionship. I pay close attention to each pet's behavior, health, and comfort level and provide regular updates to owners. My goal is to ensure pets receive safe, reliable, and compassionate care while maintaining the environment and routine they are accustomed to. With a spacious house, I easily can keep my two cats away if a pet doesn’t enjoy their presence. Though my cats are lovers of all, I understand if other pets aren’t the same.
“Paige was absolutely fantastic! I am so relieved to have found such a wonderful alternative to kenneling my dog. They took excellent care of my dog, Rosco and were so friendly and nice to work with. I would absolutely recommend Paige 1000%.”

About: I love dogs.I grew up with dogs.I’m kind, patient, gentle, and caring.We have a 2 y.o.Lhasa Apso. I hope to see your fur baby soon!! I am home more frequently at the moment. I have time to care for pets. Plenty of time. To play , walk, and board fur babies. Zola is on a potty schedule which works great. She is walking on a retractable leach twice a day and often times plays ,sleeps, etc in my room or throughout the house. She eats typically 3 times a day, more is she likes.
“Penny was fantastic with my pup! It was such a gift to find her and know he was in good hands when we were out of town. My puppy is a challenging, high energy guy, who could not stay just anywhere. Penny has so much knowledge and provided an enriching environment for him with new experiences. She even spent time training him, including new cues like having him lay down on his bed. I received daily updates and photos from Penny and will surely use her again if needed!!”


About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.
“So happy with Beth and all she did to help us out. Flexible and appreciative that she was able to help us out with Rover program snarl. No doubt she is on the top of our list for future bookings”

“Emily took great care of Mila while I was away on vacation. She was reliable, trustworthy, and friendly. I was able to relax knowing that Mila was in very good hands. Emily kept me updated throughout my trip, which I appreciated very much. I would strongly recommend Emily’s services for anyone!”
“Janelle was great. Laid back and yet her animals are the center of her world you can tell. And she made my Mia right at home. Giving her special attention. Thanks.”

“Celine was wonderful! She kept us posted with pics of our dog enjoying her deck and sleeping comfortably on her couch. Celine was easily accessible and a joy to talk to. We will definitely rebook her in the future.”

“A perfect family! Always very flexible on pickup/drop off times. Always sending picture/ video updates on how the stay is going. You can tell her daughter loves having new dogs in the house. They are always so kind and love dog sitting. Definitely a returning customer!”

“I cannot say enough about the amazing care my puppy had with Elisabeth. We were very nervous to leave our 4 month d puppy, but she put all our fears to rest. She sent multiple photos, videos, and updates. Thank you again!!”

About: A life long animal lover, I've had a variety of pets throughout the past twenty years. I have cared for, trained and loved horses, dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, rabbits and rodents. I majored in Biology in college and took several animal science classes. I was a horseback riding instructor for summer camp in college, and have volunteered with different animal rescue orgs over the years. I currently work from home which gives me increased flexibility to provide care and attention to your pets. I enjoy getting out during the day to go for walks or romps around the yard to get some fresh air and exercise. I will treat your pet as I do my own, with kindness, compassion and lots of love. I have a fenced in yard and also will take the pets for a daily walk (dogs) to give them a change of scenery and additional exercise. I do have a 6 month pup that loves all animals and will be a great playmate. I also will provide regular updates and pictures for those clients who desire them.
About: I would say what sets me apart is I’ve had special training incase of any type of emergency or mishap. I am a very forgiving person also. My schedule is fairy open so I have time to fit most a lot of things in. One of which is taking care of animals I most walk them at the park or play with animals in my house. My home can fit 1-2 dogs or 3 cats at a time
“Sarah was perfect! Communicative about pickup and drop off, and photo updates in between. Our pup even got to stay and play with two other dogs. He was well-cared for and came home sleepy! We highly recommend Sarah!”
“Im so glad i found maddie! She was so accomodating and enthusiastic about watching our dog for a couple days. She had no trouble handling my dog, even though he struggles with anxiety and food aggression. She gave candor all the attention he needed, and he came home a very happy dog.”

Waterville pet parents share their Rover experiences
I reached out to Michael in relatively short notice to see if he could take my 10yr old Doodle for an overnight stay. He was very responsive and we agreed to do a "meet and greet" since he has 3 of his own dogs. They all got along well while getting familiar with each other in his large, fenced back yard. I felt comfortable to book with Michael. He sent many pictures of my dog playing throughout the stay and also of their walks. It was very pleasant knowing my dog was in good care and not having to go to a kennel for the night. Thanks Michael (and Bella, Nova and Ginny)!!!
