About: I’ve been dog-walking and pet sitting for several years now! I love spending time with dogs and am having to go for runs or the beach with them, or just relax at home! I’m a second year medical student, so happy to sit for pets in the evenings, as well as provide breaks during the day! I’m typically most open on the weekends but am open to weekdays as well. I will follow directions closely and respect your home like it is my home! I like to do frequent check-ins and am happy to do a meet and greet beforehand.

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!

About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have had three dogs and two cats over the years. I’m currently raising a golden retriever puppy with my family and absolutely love spending time with dogs. Friends have always trusted me to watch their pets while they’re out of town because they know I treat every animal like family. I’m the kind of person who stops people on the street just to ask if I can pet their dog. Caring for animals genuinely makes me happy, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to give your pets the attention, care, walks, and love they deserve. I care for every pet like my own, always putting their safety, comfort, and happiness first. I stay alert on walks, careful around other dogs, people, traffic, and our surroundings to make sure pets feel safe and secure at all times. I also have a fenced yard for safe play and experience caring for and crate training puppies since I currently have 2 dogs.

About: I am an animal lover who has a flexible schedule! In my free time I would love to hang with your pets while you are at work, running errands or are away. I am currently in grad student so my schedule is flexible! Whether that be walking your dog in between or after class and/or checking in on your kitty I am flexible. In my own home, I care for my cat by maintaining a consistent feeding schedule, keeping his litter box clean, providing fresh water daily, and making sure he gets plenty of playtime and affection.

Anna is a friendly and capable dog lover. She was prompt and resourceful in getting my dog to walk, and she followed the cues he gave her. She sent lots of photos and wrote a thorough description of activities. I will definitely ask her to care for my dog again.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and have lots of experience caring for all kinds and sizes of dogs! I am careful and loving of all dogs, without exception. I have long experience walking and working with reactive dogs, and have cared for dogs overnight for families with as many as eleven dogs! My recent experience is with herding and working breeds so I am accustomed to handling large, smart dogs. If walking your dog, I'll walk at a fast clip or ramble to allow lots of sniffing, as your dog requires. I love to jog alongside a dog as well, and may do that if desired for repeat clients with athletic dogs. For drop-ins, I'll play, snuggle, or provide enrichment to break up the day for your dog while you are not home. Finally, I am a teacher on summer break so I am truly flexible and available, looking forward to being outside with dogs in the beautiful Maine summer. Thanks for considering my profile! I’m a teacher so my schedule is totally open in the summer. I love to walk and jog with dogs! I will have limited availability for continued care once the school year starts. I have long experience with caring for all sorts of animals, not just mammals. I love animals and look forward to helping yours live their best lives!

About: Hi, I’m Katie! I’ve owned and cared for both dogs and cats all my life. I currently have one kitty named Joni at home, but have lots of past experience with pups. I’ve cared for pets who take meds and tend to be on the anxious side. I’m excited to spend time with your best friend(s)! I work full-time, but have a fairly flexible schedule and can accommodate working from home and breaks to check in on your pet. I’m generally free on evenings and weekends, as well. I’ll follow your lead to make our time together the most safe and comfortable experience possible for your pet. Feel free to set up a meet-and-greet beforehand to go over any special instructions.

About: I have been caring for both household and friends furry companions for many years. I personally care for Two dogs, Two goats, a rabbit and 2 cats regularly. I'm relied on to walk, feed, play with and bathe many types of furry friends and am passionate about learning how to care for each animals individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly schedule alongside my work as a professional nanny. As a caregiver, I’m organized, dependable, and used to following individualized routines. I carefully plan my schedule to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, exercise, and care they deserve, whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions so I can provide consistent, individualized care. I believe in clear communication and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your booking, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. As both a professional nanny and experienced pet sitter, I understand the trust involved in caring for a beloved family member, and I treat every home and every pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.

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!

Tiffany has done a great job with Madison! She is very responsive and checks in often. He looks forward to his walks and tlc time with her. Tiffany has been very flexible and patient with Madx especially since he has had a slight muscle injury and sometimes needs a modified walk. Would book again and again!

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’ve cared for dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime to senior pups who require patience and gentle care. What sets me apart is my focus on making each dog feel safe, loved, and at home, whether that means long walks, belly rubs, or sticking to their exact routine. I’m reliable, attentive, and quick to notice changes in behavior or needs, which gives pet parents peace of mind. If your dog needs medication, extra exercise, or just a little extra snuggle time, I’m happy to provide it. Every dog has their own personality, and I love tailoring my care to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. I am currently in medical school so my schedule is busy but with plenty of time free on the weekends! I have full days (8am-6pm) Monday and Friday, but only brief afternoon classes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and would love to spend my non-class time with a pup! I am additionally free any time on weekends as my weekends mainly entail staying at home to study. I am currently unable to offer pet care in my apartment. I live in an apartment building that is not pet friendly. I am able to travel wherever is needed!

About: I grew up in a dog-loving family, but I am also a true animal lover. Most of my animal care experience is with caring for dogs, as my family has always had at least one my entire life. I just recently had to let go of my first personal dog of 10 years, and I miss the companionship. In my pictures you will see all the dogs that have been a part of my life for over the last 15 years. I would say my passion for them is what allows me to be a great caregiver. I work 3 twelve-hour shifts during the week, then my off days are usually entirely free. The days are different from week to week but I’m otherwise relatively flexible. Whatever your furry children need! I’ll give them play time, nap time, walks, feed them, take them to the park, out for pup cups; anything to make them feel loved and happy while you are away.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Cape Elizabeth

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Cape Elizabeth on Rover is $15.54 per walk (as of August 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 .

As of August 2026, there are 953 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Cape Elizabeth. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

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:

  • 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
