“Tim was great. We booked a 5 hour whale watch tour and needed someone to walk/ take care of our dog in Bar Harbor while we were out. He works for the company to was able to help check us in and then take care of our dog for the day. We very much appreciated his willingness to help us!”
“Shalee did an amazing job pet sitting in my home while I was out of town. Definitely will be asking for more booking in the future!”
About: My love of dogs has taken me so many places! For over a decade, I worked as a guide dog instructor at an internationally recognized guide dog school, learning and putting into practice everything about dog behavior, training, and the human-animal bond. That time is long past, but I still just love dogs: their personalities, their quirks, and their people. I'm experienced with pups to seniors, the tiny to the giant, the healthy to the ailing. I try to help each dog feel comfortable and happy, and help their people feel the same way. 😊 I also have plenty of experience caring for other animals: cats, horses, goats, chickens... I work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, so from Thursday night through Tuesday morning, dogs have a lot of human company all day long. Mid-week (Tues, Wed, Thurs), dogs are exercised in the morning, spend the work day relaxing at home, and the human fun begins again the evening. In my home: I have a large unfenced yard; boarding dogs are on long line to exercise outdoors and are not left unattended outdoors(!). I have one medium-sized, friendly dog, and one cat. I can crate your dog if you or they like, or give them a crate as an option. In your home: I am not the most straightforward or cheapest option for house-sitting; I have a dog of my own (can be accommodated elsewhere temporarily) and sometimes teenagers. However, I might be what you're looking for if you have special circumstances: multiple pets that need experienced management, pets with special medical or behavioral needs, or reliable care for a small farm.
“David was great with my dog! We felt very reassured to leave him in David’s care.”
“This was the 1st time I left my dog with anyone overnight so I was very nervous. It helped a lot that Bambi stopped by to meet all about 10days before staying over. She took my lists of instructions and adhered to all. She was very understanding about my dog’s anxiety.”
“Brittney was a wonderful sitter for our fur baby, she took great care of her! She sent pictures and updates, left the house spotless - we were so pleased and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was a little kid! I have experience with pets of all types, ages & personalities. Friends & family have relied on me to walk, feed & housesit for their animals. I work full time time job but I have most mornings free. My schedule rotates so I would not be able to have the same availability every week, but please reach out with dates & times! I would love to make something work. I can come to your house and walk your dog. If you are interested in an overnight board at my house the dog would have to be good with my 15lb poodle mix & two cats. It would be ideal that the dog comes with a crate to stay in, as my dog is crated as well when we are out of the house. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I live near a dog park, and in a nice spot to walk dogs.
“My dogs absolutely adored Alissa! I think they were almost disappointed when we came home! The were happy and stress free and my house was tidy. I really do not think that you can ask for anything more.”
“Luke did a very good job taking care of my boys and keeping in touch so we knew all was good. It was the first time I had to leave my guys so we were a bit nervous.”
“Kahlan took such great care of my home and my special needs dog. She even dried some laundry I left in the wash by mistake and left the house immaculate. My pup loved her immediately. She is an excellent communicator and sent pics of my dog daily. She is very trustworthy. I will definitely be hiring her again.”
“Ella watched our goldendoodle puppy and did a great job! We’ll definitely reach out on future trips to the area for additional house sitting!”

“I 100% highly recommend Mark to watch your babies. He is trust worthy, communicative, and reliable. Not only did I contact him with less than 24 hours notice, he followed my every direction perfectly and documented the whole experience via text with pictures. With a great sense of humor i appreciate while not being home, I would absolutely re-hire Mark again to watch my pups.”

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and other animals throughout my whole life. I enjoy my time with the animals and they can definitely tell! I do work everyday during the week, but I am available after work which would be 5pm sometimes sooner and also anytime on the weekends! I will do whatever I can to make sure your dog feels comfortable while here, whether it’s playing with them, petting or taking them on a walk!
About: Hello folks, I am an experienced animal caretaker with a background in fostering pets. I have cared for dogs, cats, other domestic pets, and farm animals. My clients, friends and family have entrusted me to watch their animals since I was 12. I believe that direct communication with pet owners will allow me to provide a safe and engaging experience for your animals. I work part-time from 10 am - 2 pm throughout the week. My work days change frequently but I am available outside of these hours for your caretaking needs. I will not be providing services in my home at this time. For pet sitting and walking services, I am available to stay in your home or do daily check ins. My goal is to be an accessible source for your animal while you travel or are at work. I will be available 24/7 via email or text after you book my services. Please provide me with any medical, dietary, or enrichment needs for your animal when you book my services. I always adhere to my clients wishes and will do my best to stick with your pet’s daily routine while in my care. If you have a dog who is friendly, I can provide additional enrichment with my three year old pup Zeus.
About: I've had dogs in my home at all times since I was born. We've had puppies, rescues and everything in between. I do not have my own pet, however, I've been house/dog sitting for 10 years now mainly by word of mouth. I'm excited to start this new adventure on Rover meeting and caring for your family(pups). I rent a home that comes with an acre of land. I like taking the pups on adventures such as hikes, ice creams dates, and swimming! I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I'm free on the weekends so I will always be with your pup. On week days I generally work 9am-430pm so your pup would be alone roughly 8:30am to 4:45pm. My mom enjoys helping out and as long as they are a friendly dog, she will stop at my house halfway through the day to allow some stretching and potty breaks. I am diligent about keeping dogs on leashes as my yard is not fenced in. I also have a large lead that has worked well for other dogs I've watched. My house is always locked up. I have a clean driving record so your pups will always be safe if we travel at all. I have a number of references that can vouch for my honesty and integrity. If you are ever interested in hearing from my reference, please ask. I know the location of the nearest emergency vet if anything were to happen. I keep a clean, organized home so you won't have to worry about your dog getting into something they shouldn't, like the garbage!
About: In my house, our pets are our family and they rule the house. My goal as a pet sitter is to provide animals with the best care and put owners at ease while they’re away. I have found a passion for caring for others’ animals which started many years ago when i began volunteering. From volunteering, I have experience with many different breeds and sizes of both dogs and cats and I also have experience administering medication, taking care of dogs with special needs, and LOTS of drool! By word of mouth, I have gained many clients in my area and continue to provide the best care I can for every family and their furry friends! I am currently a sophomore at Siena College. Therefore, while classes are in session, I stick to weekends only. In the summertime, I am available every day of the week and I typically work 4-6 hour days. I offer in-home care at the convenience of you and your pets. Boarding is expensive and pets are nowhere nears as spoiled as they would be with me! Keeping your pets in your home while you are gone will ease their anxiety (as well as yours) and provide the best level of comfort for them. I offer the in-home care as well as dog walking and occasional drop-ins!

19. Kevin C.
“Kevin was wonderful to work with, and Mr. Moss is always so happy to see him! My girlfriend and I had to leave for vacation and our original dog sitter canceled on us at the last minute… leaving us in quite a pinch! Non-the less, Kevin was very accessible and readily available to dog sit Mr. Moss on short notice! Moss had a wonderful time with Kevin and we were delighted with Kevin’s regular updates on Moss’s stay while we were away! You could say Mr. Moss had quite the vacation with Kevin as he was extremely well cared for and clearly given lots of love, belly rubs and exercise time! All in all I will be asking Kevin to dog sit Moss from now on and will be recommending him to all of my friends and family! 5 stars!!!!”
