“Jennifer has been an absolute blessing! She is always on time, communicates exceptionally well, and keeps me updated with pictures and messages while I’m away. She is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about my dogs. My dogs are not the easiest to care for, so finding someone they are comfortable with has always been a challenge. Jennifer has been incredibly patient with them, and they do so well in her care. Knowing they’re happy, safe, and loved gives me complete peace of mind every time I leave. She has truly become my go-to pet sitter, and I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Jennifer is the one!”
“Stephanie was super friendly and professional! We always worry leaving Obi because he’s a big puppy, and with that comes a lot of energy. But Stephanie kept us updated and was super understanding of this. We would 100% recommend Stephanie! Thank you!”
“Great dog sitter and person. Asked questions on our expectations from her and kept is well informed. Will definitely book with her when and recommend her to others. Thank you for making our trip away a blessed one. ?”
“This was our first experience with Bryan. Throughout the whole process Bryan was extremely professional and caring. He made it a point to get down on our pet's level to help them feel comfortable. He sent several photos and videos which helped us enjoy our time away. We will defiantly be reaching out to Bryan again for future house sitting needs!”
“Great communication from the start, sent pictures and updates every day and helped to take care of a couple household chores while staying in our home. Would definitely use her again!”
“Allison was amazing with our pittie mix rescue who was a stray for 2 years and can be anxious and skittish. She immediately loved Allison (more so than she even loves us, I was joking with my husband) and even went to sleep while Allison was watching her which is unheard of for our dog. Highly recommend, Allison is truly a dog whisperer!”
About: Born and raised with a love of all the furry friends! This is my full time thing and I care for horses too! I gained experience working with my mother who was a vet tech, breeder, trainer, and showed multiple breeds. Raised on a horse farm. My sister and cousin are also both vet techs that are close easy contacts if ever I have a need or question. I am detailed, organized and a patient Pet Sitter. My history, outgoing demeanor, time management skills, along with my love of animals, make me uniquely qualified to care for pets of all kinds. I currently have a dalmatian (my personal doggy assistant making all pups feel comfy) and a pug mix are unbelievably friendly to all animals and humans alike. I care for pets in all age ranges and breeds from Great Danes to Pomeranians. I'm experienced with even the high energy or "difficult" pups and provide them with a safe environment to learn good manners, develop social skills, and have the opportunity to get out all their energy. Your pups don't just get care but I work with all the pups whether its leash training, fence reactivity, potty training, and/or basic commands. Depending on the pup I can provide baths and/or nail trimming but top notch grooming care I highly recommend Bark and Beyond! Christine is the best! I am home full time. I am very flexible with drop in/off times, meet and greets, and readily available to whatever your specific pet needs may be. I provide it all so no sweating over the details. Toys, crates, dog beds, bowls of all kinds, a splash pad, seperate spaces if needed, puppy only zone, and lots of love is all included. I have an ENORMOUS fenced in yard and a doggy door so the pups get to come and go from the house to the yard as the please. Plus with 2 fur babies of my own to keep your pup company. Both get along fantastically with new animal and human friends! I am open to potty training, and crating if needed.
About: I have been caring for dogs of all ages my entire life. I like to focus on making sure your dogs are comfortable when you are away. It can be a hard adjustment for both pet and owner to be separated, but I’m here to make everything easier! I’m currently working part time and am working on an online degree, so I will have a lot of time to spend with your pet! I have a large fenced in yard and a large home for the dogs to play and roam. Dogs are family in my house and are allowed on couches and beds. Water is always out in the open and access to the yard is freely given (unless otherwise specified). I try to play with the dogs and give each and every one special attention.
“Alexandra was outstanding!!! She took care of our varied pack of cats and dogs ages 1yr-14yrs while we were away. One of our cats takes meds every other day. I felt very assured our fur babies were well care fur while we were on vacation. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”
About: I attended school to become a veterinary technician and now following my dream working in an amazing clinic ! I am use to working with all kinds of animals. I also offer pet sitting to many clients and friends! Pet care fits into my schedule extremely well because I am able to not only have eyes on my personal pets as they are allowed to come to work with me, but help out with other when needed! At my home my dog is able to be outside ( on a run) and enjoy his time out there! My cats stay inside as they are less sociable during the day! When In clients homes, I offer times (indoor or outdoor) to play.
About: I’ve had cats my whole life. They have quite the personality and I’m experienced with indoor and outdoor cats. I respect schedules and cleanliness standards. I’ve taken care of friends and family’s animals on too many to count occasions. I work until 5 so I’m available in the evening and overnight. I will discuss routines and temperaments with you and do whatever you need me to do. I act as a friend while you’re away. I stick to feeding and walking schedules. I clean up behind your animal and myself. I speak with love we have fun.
About: ⭐️ Meet and Greets with new clients ⭐️ DETAILED updates with photos/videos ⭐️ Extra Cuddles and Playtime ⭐️Seasoned in professional pet care Hi! I’m Savannah 🤍 your pet’s new favorite sitter (and probably their future bestie 🐾) I’m new to Rover, but I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being around them. At home, I have a sweet cat named Athena, and have always been raised around dogs so i definitely understand each one is different. I’m also a stay-at-home mama to my daughter—so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I don’t just “check in” on pets—I take the time to learn their personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I meet them where they are, giving them love, attention, and playtime so they feel happy and at ease while you’re away 🤍
“Louis was so awesome! I’ve never left my pets alone with anyone outside of my family before, but I felt safe and secure with Louis in charge! Both of my dogs loved him and he took such good care of them. He even sent me some pictures. I will definitely ask Louis to pet sit again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - West Bangor
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,713 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Bangor. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred West Bangor walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in West Bangor maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Bangor choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
