About: I have cared for dogs throughout my life including my own, my family, and friends. The dogs have ranged from puppies to older adults with boarding in my home and their own. I live on the first floor of my building and there are no steps for senior dogs to have to worry about. While I do work as a teacher full time, my weekends are very open to care for dogs. I typically take a walk one to two times a day on my own through the neighborhood so adding a dog companion along would be very easy. We also have a cat who loves dogs with many dog toys of her own that she can share! I have a one bedroom apartment with no stairs so it is easily accessible for dogs of all mobility ranges and ages and I can keep an eye on them throughout the day. While we do not have a fenced in yard, we do have access to a field next door at an elementary school and neighborhoods to walk in with little car traffic.
“We were so lucky to find Harrison!! He took wonderful care of Kiwi for a long weekend, and we were relieved to know she was in such great hands. He was very responsive to communications, updated us with pics, and even made us aware of a spot he noticed on her paw (which we knew about but hadn't thought to mention to him). We also appreciated his flexibility about pick up time when we were traveling back home. So grateful for his great care and highly recommend him!”
About: After losing my best friend, Benjamin Franklin, a 13.5 year old Lab mix, in May, I’ve decided to open my heart and home to caring for other dogs. I got Ben from a rescue when he was just 12 weeks old and spent the latter half of his life caring for his complex medical needs, including medications, specialized nutrition, and significant mobility assistance toward the end. I miss him dearly, and I know just how much our dogs mean to us. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors, and am comfortable with administering medications and extra care needs. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention in my quiet, cozy home. I also love getting outside for walks and hikes and would love some company! Your dog will be welcomed with lots of love, patience, and snuggles. I know how hard it can be to leave your best friend in someone else’s care, and I want you to feel confident that they’ll be treated like family while you’re away. I currently work from home full-time M-F, so your pup would have company all day! I can board pretty much any day of the week, schedule lunchtime walks and will ensure your dog has what they need to be comfortable and happy. I have a large yard that is partially fenced, but dogs are always leashed when outside and never left unsupervised. I am close to many walking trails that allow a longer, leashed walk if a short car ride is agreeable. Dogs are allowed on the bed and couches if that is the rule at their home. I make it a point to prioritize their comfort and minimize any stress they may feel in a new environment.
“Grace saved us with a last minute stay for our corgi! She was super communicative with updates and sending us photos of Rooney! And Rooney had a great time with her dog as well. We’ll definitely use grace again if we find ourselves in Portland!”
“Joshua was an awesome dog sitter! Very attentive and sent pictures throughout the stay. His dog, Lucy, is the sweetest girl and it was great knowing Walter had a friend to play with while I was away! If you're in need of a highly capable sitter, who will take some of the stress out of leaving your dog for a few days, Joshua is your guy!”
“Bri was a great sitter for Freddie. Both before and during his stay she was very communicative. Freddie was nervous about being away from home, she kept us updated throughout the day and I knew he was in good hands. If we visit the area and need a sitter again, Bri will be our only call!”
“Annie was so patient with our high-energy, anxious dog. Her calm energy and kindness just radiate. We had a great experience and would absolutely work with her again!”
“Janice was a very good communicator and provided me with many updates - including pictures - as she watched my pup. I was very comfortable with her caring for my pup. I would employ her again for sure!”
“We’ve had both daycare and overnight boarding with Christine for our two pups. She’s incredibly professional, communicative, and accessible. She followed instructions about our dogs’ needs to a tee and took them on plenty of walks. They came home relaxed and well exercised. Christine was also really helpful when our travel plans changed and accommodated our pickup times. We loved the service and would definitely use her again!”
“Lauren was amazing with my two pups! They got all of their needs met and were very well taken care of, lots of cuddles and good sniffs. I received lots of updates and tons of pictures which is always appreciated. Will use Lauren for my pups again in the future :)”
“Richard was amazing with our girls! All three were super excited to meet him, and they loved their adventure with him last weekend- he even took them to see the LL Bean boot! Highly recommend :)”
“Lisa was great with our 6 month old ENERGETIC puppy for two nights. She took her on walks, gave her plenty of playtime, and we felt so secure knowing our dog was in good hands. Would definitely book with Lisa again!”
“Tiffany and her family took such wonderful care of Benny while we were on vacation! It was clear that he received plenty of attention, affection, and love during his stay. Knowing he was safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip without worrying. We would absolutely trust Tiffany with Benny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and caring pet sitter!”
“if you wrote the job description for the perfect Dog Sitter, it would be about Nicole. Her communication is great, she treats your dog as if it is her own and is super easy and convenient to get to her home.”
“Peter is great! Excellent communication. He is prompt in responding to questions around availability. Very accommodating as far as setting up a meet and greet. My dog Lola immediately took to Peter and his adorable dog Zeffy. Which is saying something because she is very cautious with new people and situations. Lola really enjoyed spending time with her new friends and I will definitely be using Peter again.”
“Chelsea and her family did such a great job with Fletcher. He is an anxious guy, and can be a lot sometimes, so I worry anytime I leave him with anyone. But he loved being at Chelsea’s! She always kept me updated and sent pictures, which really helped me to relax, knowing he was in good hands. Thank you so much Chelsea!”
About: New to Rover but not new to caring for animals! I grew up on a farm with lots of animals - dogs, cats, goats, horses, rabbits, chickens, pigs... I've also informally pet sat for friends and neighbors with dogs and/or cats in the past. I've been a cat mom in the past, but I don't have a pet of my own right now. For dog walking, my work from home job allows me some flexibility to stop by and take your pup for a stroll! I can do earlier mornings, a lunch time walk on some days, and evening walks after 5pm. For doggy daycare, I work from home full time at a desk job - if my day is "busy" it just means I had a few more zoom calls than usual. I would absolutely be able to take time to provide potty breaks and maybe a walk around the neighborhood when the weather is good. I live on a main street in town, but there's also a nice quiet neighborhood right behind me with minimal traffic, perfect for a quick walk. I do travel three or four times a year for my job, generally for 3-5 days each time, but I'd be able to give you at least a couple of months advanced notice for those trips - they are never last minute! For doggy daycare, I don't smoke and I have plenty of space for your pup to hang out during the day so they don't feel cooped up - including a wrap around enclosed porch that I can keep secure, and a tall privacy-fenced back yard/garden area. While the yard is fenced, I do get birds and other critters roaming through, and I have a flower garden that could have some toxic plants for over-curious dogs. Because of that, I would not to leave them alone outside, but take those breaks with them. My house does have a fairly steep flight of stairs, so a dog without joint pain or struggles going up and down multiple times a day would be most comfortable. I do have lots of houseplants and some could be toxic - so again, if your dog tends to be curious and take a bite out of plants, I may not be the best fit for you.
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Westbrook is $65
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Westbrook
My dog, perpetually plagued with nerves, came back happy and healthy after staying with Kristian for two days. She sent photo updates, took him outside to garden, and allowed him his favorite past time: loafing on the couch. He even made friends with her cat. I would recommend her for all your boarding needs!
River loved her time with Sridevi! When my parents could no longer take her for a long planned quick trip to Europe I needed to find someone to love on River for a week. Sridevi's home was warm and welcoming, her fenced in backyard was likely the highlight of the week for River. It's very clear that Sridevi loves dogs and was very loving with River. She explained how she would take care of River and gave examples of past experiences with other dogs. We got daily pictures and even a video or two while on our trip. I'll definitely be reaching out to Sridevi when we need someone to watch River for us again!
Matt is great! He came over to meet our dog & was very thorough asking about her needs, temperament, and routine. He offered to set up a meet and greet with another dog he was going to watch. He took care of our dog for a week, picking her up and dropping her off without a hiccup. He’s a very kind, thoughtful, & responsible person. I was completely comfortable leaving my favorite creature in his care. He did a great job and I look forward to having him watch our dog in the future.

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Westbrook is $67 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $89 per night. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 302 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Westbrook. About 94% of Westbrook sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ME ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
