“Rachael was loved immediately by my pup! She helped me in a pinch last minute when I needed overnight care. She is kind, punctual, sent me updates & stayed in touch. It’s really nice to not have to reach out about your pet, and to already have updates and photos when you check your phone!!! Delilah and I look forward to working with you again. 😊”



“Joey loves when we get Lori to sit with him! He always has fun and she keeps us informed throughout the day with updates and pictures. Plus I’m always at complete ease when Lori is sitting.”


“Julie was amazing with our pets while we were away. She had no trouble giving medication to our older pup and made sure the younger one got plenty of playtime outside. Julie was highly responsive, sending regular updates and photos throughout the day. Our pets were happy and well-cared for upon our return. Thank you, Julie!”


“Katelyn was wonderful! We hired her to housesit & stay with our dog while we were gone for 2 days. She is a sweet person, clearly loves dogs & was easy to make plans with. She and our dog were fast friends. She sent me regular updates on how he was doing w/ pics & responded quickly when I missed my pup & needed a check in. When we got back home, other than a very well-cared for & happy dog, you couldn't even tell she had been there. Everything was how we left it. Would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thanks Katelyn!”


“Eli is amazing! My dogs instantly loved him, which always makes it so much easier to leave your four legged loved ones with someone you don't know. This was our first time using Eli, and there is no question that we will have him back. I loved the updates, he was super easy going and my dogs were happy as could be.”


“We would absolutely book Kayla again! She was incredibly communicative throughout, and from the photos she sent, it was clear our dog was happy and comfortable with her—his wagging tail said it all. Since he's not typically used to being around others, we were thrilled with how well he settled in. Kayla was also very accommodating to all of our requests. Thank you, Kayla!”


“Emma is fantastic! She was so warm and friendly and great with our two dogs and cat. She made our anxious dog feel safe and comfortable while we were away. Emma is very communicative and sent us photos during our trip. We can’t recommend her enough!”


“This was our first time using Rover and we were a bit apprehensive but it worked out great! Tyler was wonderful with Teaka and Seeley. Our dog has dietary restrictions/medications and our cat is deaf and he was fantastic. We would highly recommend him to our friends and neighbors! Thank you Tyler!”


“Ashley is absolutely fantastic. She watched our dog all day, went on long walks, took pictures, and was extremely thoughtful about what was best to keep our dog comfortable and safe. If you're looking for someone reliable who actually cares about the animals she works with, Ashley is the one to help you”


About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my whole life—growing up in a pet-loving home taught me how to care for animals with love and patience. I’ve also volunteered at the humane society, where I gained hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for family, friends, and coworkers, providing everything from walks to overnight care. I truly treat every pet like they’re my own. I work a sales job Monday–Friday, typically from 8:00 AM to around 4:30 PM, and I travel locally (within an hour). I always make sure I’m available before accepting any bookings, so your pet’s care will never be compromised. I’m available for evening walks during the week, and I’m open to overnight house sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I’m very aware of my surroundings and always prioritize your pet’s safety, whether we’re out walking or relaxing at home. I’m great at reading animals’ energy and body language, which helps me respond calmly and confidently in any situation. I follow any instructions carefully and always make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable.

“Cassandra is WONDERFUL! My Gracie is a very reactive young dog, and Cassandra handled her very well from the very start. She gave me reports and photos throughout her stay with Gracie, and also showed me several very helpful tips and tools that I can use myself with my dog. Highly recommend!”


“Victoria is the absolute best. She spent the day with my pup Joey and gave him lots of love and cuddles. He is super relaxed with her and I will 100% be a repeat customer. ❤️”


About: My best friend, Jack Pine, a lab and shepherd mix recently passed and I’ve been enjoying taking care of friends’ dogs! This transpired very organically, missing my sweet boy. One of my friends suggested I set up a profile here. I do have house sitting experience. I am a part-time bartender with a very flexible schedule! I also work part time for myself and create my own hours. I can travel farther and have evening availability W-Sat. Lots of midday availability every day. I’m personally very athletic and am missing my daily dog walks and runs! Happy to house sit and / or board. I live in an apartment with a cat- and a friendly small dog next door that shares the same yard. Rural setting- lots of great quiet trails nearby!

“Elisa has taken care of our two dogs and one cat twice now (once for a couple of days and once for a week). Both times, she shared photos and updates about what the girls were up to, letting us know they had been fed, walked, and snuggled with. We felt like our pets were in great hands while we were away and wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to watch our pets again!”


About: I’ve just graduated college with a business degree and I am living at home in the Kennebunk area. I absolutely love taking care of my own dog. I’ve started helping my friend out with her three very large dogs and as a longtime babysitter and nanny I just can’t wait to help people with their pets! I’m out of school and I am starting to do real estate this means I’m driving around a lot and I know the area quite well. It also means I have pretty much any day open. It just depends on the time.😎 We have a fenced in yard for my dog when we let him out. He’s 10 years old now so we don’t use a crate but I’m open to do anything your dog needs.

“Hannah took great care of our dog Otto while we were away. She was always responsive and sent us photos. She even took Otto to the beach for a walk- his favorite place! Thank you to Hannah! She is a great dog and house sitter.”
