About: I have provided pet car for family, friends, neighbors and more since I was a teen. I love spending time with pets of all shapes and sizes and helping their owners too! I am spending one month in Portland while I am on break from medical school and hoping to find some work pet sitting! My schedule is open and flexible to work with all pets at a time that works for their owners :) I will strictly follow instructions for the care of your pets ensuring that they are both safe and happy upon the return of their owners.
“Emily is great! I have complete peace of mind knowing Chloe is in good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and dependable to care for their dog!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life—from Cavapoos to Corgis to Wheaten Terriors to Doodles, to Boxers! I’ve also had the pleasure of having a Goldendoodle of my own as well! My sweet pup was in an accident and required lots of specific care such as wound care and medication administration for many months. I am a very patient and dedicated pet sitter and will treat your pet like my own. I’ll keep them safe, make sure they get the attention they need, and assure that you get the updates you crave while away from your bestie. I absolutely love animals and I also know how challenging it can be to have peace of mind while maintaining your life responsibilities outside of your furry friends—I hope to have the opportunity to take that stress off of your plate! I’m currently in grad school for Speech Language Pathology (classes are online until January 2027) and work per diem at the hospital. I have two shifts per week serving at a restaurant in Portland as well, they are typically 6-8 hour shifts so if booked for an overnight, there may be a day or two that I am away for that amount of time! Otherwise, my schedule is super flexible and perfect for that mid day potty and play break! Safety is first! You tell me how you like things to go in your home and what makes your pet the most comfortable and I’ll make sure it happens! Let me know if your pet has any anxieties in public and I’ll keep in mind ways to keep them happy and calm on walkies!
“Thank you for taking the time for a meet & greet before we confirmed dog walking. Leo and I both appreciate the care you provide for him and the prompt responses when coordinating times for dog walks”
“Andy has been walking my dog fairly regularly for over 6 months now and I can’t recommend him enough. He is always timely in his response and communicates very clearly. I would recommend him to anyone who’s looking for a loving and responsible dog walker.”
“Mae is fantastic! She’s amazing with my 80 pound shepherd and little golden doodle. She was open to whatever routine was best for my dogs with ball playing and walks, and is a positive, helpful part of our daily routine. Highly recommend!”
About: I have 10 years of animal care experience! (Dogs, cats, and bunnies). I have 5 years of dog handling experience, pups that are big or small! I am beginning my journey to be a Veterinarian this fall at UMA 😊 I currently work part-time as I am attending school! But my passion is to spend most of my days with my puppy and cat at home. I am a reliable caretaker and have reliable transportation! I will be offering dog walks and pet sitting. I’m here to offer an extra hand and exceptional care for your four-legged friend
About: I absolutely love spending time with dogs, whether they’re energetic puppies or sweet seniors. I’m experienced with things like sticking to training routines, giving medication, or just making sure your dog feels extra loved and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine! I work three days a week—usually Wednesday, Thursday, and one weekend day—so I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your dog the attention they deserve on my days off. In my home, your pet will be treated like family. I have a sweet senior dog who is calm and loves lounging on the couch, so the environment is quiet and cozy. I make sure to provide a safe, comfortable space where pets can feel at ease. Whether it's in my home or yours, I prioritize safety and trust, keeping your dog’s routine and comfort in mind in everything I do.
About: I’ve been an animal lover for my whole life! I have experience with dogs of many sizes and breeds, cats, cows, and chickens. Walking dogs is one of my favorite things to do. I have worked for a dog walking company for the past 3 years. Also, I have worked on multiple farms where I’ve cared for farm animals and dogs/cats. I will care for your pet as if they were my own! I’m working a remote part-time job which leaves me with plenty of time to walk dogs throughout the day and in the evening. Additionally, I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends. If I am caring for your pet in your home I will make sure to follow whatever schedule you have for them. I will take them out to play often and give them lots of love.
About: I’ve taken care of small, medium, and large dogs including low and high energy breeds. I grew up with labs and border collies, and have an understanding for providing love and care for dogs along with exercise and discipline. I will take care of your pet as if it were my own, and am adaptable to any specific needs your dog may have. I am a fire door inspector and repairman which takes up my week days, but guarantees my availability every Saturday and Sunday to provide fulltime care for pets. I live in an 800 sq/ft apartment with my cat Max that has a back porch and yard. It is able to accommodate 2 medium/small dogs or 1 large dog. My cat has lived with a large variety of dogs throughout her life and is calm and friendly towards them. Each dog under my care is treated with love and my absolute attention. Their Saftey and discipline will be ensured with positive reinforcement only. I am also willing and ready to travel to any clients home to care for your pets where they will be most comfortable.
About: Hi my name is Maria and I am an avid animal lover. I have an 80 pound lab right now, and have had several well loved cats in the past. I enjoy walking pets, giving them lots of cuddles and treats for good behavior, and lots of pets! I am a school nurse by trade, so I am available during the week after 3pm. I am also available most holidays, weekends, and during summer vacation. I have selected a radius small enough so that I can guarantee I will have enough time to spend some quality time with your animal. I will happily come to your house and spend quality time with your animal, whether that means lots of belly rubs, treats, a walk, or just some cuddles. I do have a house in South Portland with an enclosed, fenced in yard and a sweet, older yellow lab to keep company... let's get to know each other and see if we are a good fit!
About: I take myself out for walks anyway, dogs are just amazing company! I'm excited to get your dogs moving outside in a safe way that burns off some energy and allows exploration! I love being outdoors in any weather condition. Being away from home, I dearly miss my own dog, so spending quality time with some of the best creatures in the world is an amazing added bonus. I’m available weekdays before 11:30, and any time on weekends! I work in the afternoons, so my availability is before 11:30 and after 6 pm on weekdays. I’m happy to be flexible to suit your changing needs, especially if something comes up last minute that you need support with! I know it’s an act of extreme trust to have another person interact with your fur babies and I take that responsibility extremely seriously!! Whether in your home, my home, or just walking around the neighborhood, I promise to pay attention to, care for, and love your pets like they are my own!

The average cost for Dog Walking in Cape Elizabeth on Rover is $15.54 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Cape Elizabeth. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Cape Elizabeth.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cape Elizabeth. On Rover:
- 99% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
