“Hannah was great! She did an awesome job with our 3 month old puppy and was happy to accommodate his twice a day schedule. She was prompt and attentive, would use her again.”
“Lily has a natural way with animals. Pepper has had a rough past and doesn’t always immediately vibe with a new person. She took to Lily immediately! Lily was very communicative about her time with Pepper which I really appreciated. Can’t say enough good things!”
About: I am a force-free dog trainer and am currently enrolled in a Masters of Science degree in Applied Animal Behavior. I am CPR BLS Recover certified and have a B.S. in Animal Science. I have two dogs and two cats of my own. I can administer oral, SQ, and IM injections. I work full-time Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I live on a large piece of land with a fenced in space and private wooded trails. My primary concern is always with an animal’s well-being, physical or mental. I will meet your pet where they’re at and provide compassionate, trustworthy, patient care. Like any person, their needs are unique, and I care for anyone else’s pet like I would my own. *** I do not use, support, or condone aversives in dog handling or care. This means that I will not use aversive tools (e-collars, prong collars, choke collars) or methods (leash-popping, yelling). ***
About: I had a dog of my own and have been dog sitting for friends for years. I’m not afraid to give meds and clean up messes. More than happy to help :) Currently, I am working part time at a dispensary and am a traveling hairstylist and need to make more money. I’ve definitely got time to help :) My dog got a daily allergy pill in the morning before his 10min walk. I cleaned his ears once a week … unfortunately, he was prone to ear infections so I had to keep a close eye on them.
“I was able to relax with peace of mind while Nicolette was at my house with my babies. She consistently updated me with pictures and videos and brought her son to help get some energy out with my crazy lab and I could see both of my dogs loved her and had the best time with her and her son.”
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes, and I wouldn't have it any other way! Animals naturally gravitate toward my calm, patient energy, and I treat every guest like a member of my own family. What truly sets me apart is my experience with specialized and complex care. I am the proud owner of a high-energy Tamaskan dog, so I completely thrive with active, high-energy breeds. I love taking dogs on long walks, structured dog park adventures, public socialization outings, and even handling bath trips! Additionally, growing up on a property with racehorses taught me a deep love, respect, and safety-first mindset for large animals. I have also raised over 15 chickens and roosters. Whether you have an athletic pup who needs an intense workout, a multi-pet household, or livestock that need exact farm routines followed, I bring a lifetime of versatile, trustworthy experience to your extended furry family. My schedule is highly adaptable, allowing me to fully commit to your pet's exact daily routine! Because pet care is my primary focus, I have plenty of time throughout the day for active dog walks, park trips, and dedicated drop-in visits. For boarding and overnight care, your pet will receive constant supervision and companionship. I structure my days around the needs of the animals in my care, ensuring that high-energy breeds get their necessary exercise and senior pets stay perfectly on track with their medication and rest schedules. Safety and peace of mind are my absolute top priorities. Growing up around racehorses instilled a strict safety-first mindset in me from an early age, which I apply to every animal I watch. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, secure, and highly comfortable environment where they are treated just like my own. Because I own a high-energy breed, I am incredibly vigilant about environment control, secure doors, and safe socialization. When caring for pets in your home or managing farm routines, I am extremely detail-oriented. I take the time to meticulously learn your specific setup, gates, security measures, and animal dynamics. I also provide clear, consistent communication and photo updates during every single booking so you can relax knowing your pets and property are in expert, loving hands.
About: I have had a deep love for animals since I was a young child. Growing up I have always had at least one pet in my house, but when I was 7 I started actively taking care of them, which only increased my adoration for them. Whenever I am with animals I treat them with the philosophy that they give us nothing but love, and it is up to us to make sure they get that unconditional love back. I have watched dogs who were sick and required attentive and medicinal care, and I also have watched a dog and her newborn puppies. I am looking forward to expanding the dogs I know and hope I can show your animals the love they deserve in your absence! I'm very flexible with scheduling! When it comes to planning, I am willing to do both sporadic watching and walking or set weekly schedules. I am here to work for the schedule and needs of you and your pets! I know that each pet has specific needs and particulars, so I am willing to do what works best for them. Their comfortability comes first!
“Danielle is amazing! She is highly dependable and responds in a short period of time giving us peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter. She has gone the extra with us and are so thankful to have her care for our baby girl.”
“Madilyn was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we were so happy. She was caring and attentive toward our pet, and we felt like we could relax on vacation knowing he was in capable hands.”
About: I frequently petsit my friend dogs and cats when they are out of town. I grew up with dogs and really miss having one at home. I work full time and I would be a great fit if your critter is ok with being left alone while I work for about 8 hours. I'm available most days and if I have a blocked off day you really need petsitting, please let me know and mostly I probably adjust my schedule. Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks! I typically enjoy spending as much time as possible with your pet! I love going on long walks and quick runs with pets. Please let me know if you have any particular care needs for your pets!
About: Since age 10, I’ve been walking dogs and loving every minute of it! No matter your dog’s size or breed, I’m here to help! :) I'm currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! My schedule isn’t always the same, but I can stay with your dogs overnight or just walk them during the day! When caring for pets in your home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll follow your routine closely, from feeding and walks to playtime and cuddles, so your pets stay happy and relaxed while you’re away.
About: I have two cats of my own who are my world, and I grew up with multiple dogs, so both have a special place in my heart. I would love to adopt a dog of my own once I’m living in a house. Until then, I’m excited to spend time caring for yours! I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. My goal is to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away, with attention to their routines, personalities, and favorite things. Whether that means a walk, playtime, or quiet company, I’m happy to meet them where they are. You can also look forward to photos and updates along the way. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to plan my day around pet care. We can talk through your pet’s usual routine and find visit or walk times that work well for them. For house sitting, we’ll agree on how much time I’ll spend in your home so you know what to expect. My two cats are my world, so I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your pets. I provide care in your home, where they can stay in familiar surroundings. Before booking, I’d love to meet you and your pets, learn their routines, and go over feeding instructions, any special needs, and emergency contacts. I’ll respect your home and keep you updated with photos and messages.
“Emily did a great job! She was thoughtful and detail-oriented, and our kitty loved snuggling with her pretty much immediately. She proactively reached out to check in on some pretty subtle changes in bowel movements, which I really appreciated. Plus she took some legitimately great pics of our kitty during her visits!”
About: I have professionally cared for dogs and cats for five years, with a lifetime of loving animals under my belt. Pet insured, references available, would love to care for your four legged family members! I am currently self employed, so my availability is fairly open! Occasionally, I will assist my partner with other dog sitting jobs, but that is no longer than a few hours a week! I take great pride in knowing pets are safe and cared for. Checking perimeters around the house to make sure there's no escape, utilizing a crate when appropriate, and following any dietary concerns are extremely important to me!
About: I’ve taken care of numerous breeds of dogs and cats for 8+ years with 5 years of sitting being professional. I have experience with pregnant, nursing, newborn, young, and old dogs and cats! I grew up living on a farm with acreage and 2 current German Shepherds, but am familiar with owning 5 dogs at a a time and caring for up to 10-20 dogs and puppies at a time (I worked with a breeder for about a year once)! Whilst living on a farm I’m also very familiar with cats and kittens! I’ve sat for a private rescue with 20+ cats and am used to giving medication, watching the elderly, and caring for the kittens! I have a lot of patience and anything new that I haven’t seen is a new challenge for me to learn! I currently nanny in the afternoons, so outside of that I am free to love on your furbabies whenever you are away! I know how important pet care can be! I treat every furbaby and their home with respect! If I am staying over I will make sure that everything is kept clean and safe, especially for the pets that I will be watching over! I don’t do pet stays at my apartment unfortunately! If I’m coming in and out of a home, I make sure that safety for you and your home is my priority.
About: I've always had a dog throughout my entire life. At this current moment, I have 28 pets which include 1 dog, 1 bunny, 1 goat, 2 goats, and 23 chickens.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Westbrook
Amy is incredible, she goes above and beyond to make sure my pup is loved and cared for. My dog Lilo is almost 10 and dog reactive, but Amy not only won Lilo over immediately she was also able to take her for walks while effectively managing Lilo's triggers. She goes out of her way to make sure Lilo has plenty of attention and stimulation and I feel so much more relaxed about having to leave my pup with Amy taking care of her.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Westbrook 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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
