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.
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. I've also fostered dogs, which has given me experience helping dogs adjust to new environments and routines with patience and consistency. I'm very active and enjoy long walks, so I'm well-suited for dogs that need regular exercise and engagement. I'm also highly detail-oriented and organized, so I closely follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any specific care routines your dog needs. Professionally, I work as a program coordinator in a day program serving adults with special needs. This role has strengthened my reliability, communication skills, and ability to stay calm, attentive, and responsive in all situations. You can expect clear updates, consistency, and a high level of care every time I'm with your dog! My work schedule is 7am-2:30/3pm Mon-Fri in Portland. I’m an early riser and can do early walks or afternoon/evening walks! I’m unable to care for dogs at my current residence unfortunately but I’m very trustworthy and respectful of other people’s homes! As a previous dog owner, I know the importance of routine and familiarity and have found that dogs are much more comfortable staying in their environment when their human(s) are away than they are staying in a new place. I strive to help them maintain that routine and comfort!
About: I am Pet CPR & First Aid certified and have a minor degree in Animal Veterinary Science. Animals have been a huge part of my life since a young age. From dogs and cats to chickens and guinea pigs, my family and I loved all of them. I am reliable, energetic and have a genuine connection with all of the pets under my care. Whether I'm dropping in, walking, or staying with your four-legged friend extra love, pets and pictures of our time together are always included! I have a fairly flexible work schedule and have the ability to etch out time for regular clients or temporary ones. I live near Portland but I am willing and able to travel. Shoot me a message - lets chat and figure out what works for you, me and your pooch! I aim to engage your pet on their terms and to create a safe and fun environment. All my services are taylored to the individual depending on energy level, daily routine and demeaner.
About: Hello, I’m Cassie! I’m a professional pet lover with over a decade of pet sitting and dog walking experience. I strive to make each individual fur-baby’s well- being and happiness a top priority! I currently work at Maine Veterinary Medical Center and I love being able to contribute to a pets ell-being in every aspect! I am planning on taking a step back from the ER scene and dive into what I enjoy most! Helping pets live their lives to the fullest and receive much love and snugs! With that being said my schedule is a little in the air at the moment but I ill do my best to accommodate everyone and their pets needs! I am thriving to ensure that pet parents know your four legged friends are living their best lives while making sure that the well-being and happiness of your pets are a top priority!
About: Thank you for checking out my rover profile! My name is Emma! I have a huge passion for animals and have experience working in doggy daycare! I love breeds of all sizes and shapes and use Pawsitive reinforcement training. I’m always very adaptable base on each individual animal. I’m always prepared for treats unless they’re provided. I look forward to meeting your pets and will treat them like they are my own. Please reaching out for additional information ! My schedule is flexible since I currently work part-time, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I’m available Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays from 9am–3pm, as well as Friday afternoons. This schedule allows me to give pets plenty of attention, exercise, and care during visits or house sitting. I always do my best to work with each owner’s routine so their pet’s day stays as normal and comfortable as possible. I believe every pet deserves care that’s tailored just for them. I use positive reinforcement, patience, and lots of encouragement to help pets feel safe, confident, and happy. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so I can adapt my care to what they need—whether that’s energetic playtime, calm companionship, or maintaining training cues. I’m also happy to house sit in your home so your pet can stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, and I provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing.
“Super reliable. Goes above and beyond what I expected from a rover sitter. Took lots of great picture of the dogs on thier walk. Would recommend and will hire again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was just a kid. You can count on me to make sure that your pup is well cared for and loved while we watch them. I have open availability and will be around. I will communicate with you should I need to step out for a moment for any reason. I have a dog of our own named Cap who is a lab/hound mix and four short hair cats (Anri, Mori, JoJo, and Astora). All of my pets have been fixed. When watching your pets I will ensure their safety and make sure that they are well cared for.
About: Middle-school teacher with extra time (and love) over the summer. New to Rover, but not to pet sitting! My primary experience is with my two cats, Norman (8yo) and Bucky (2yo), but I have been helping watch pets for family, friends, and neighbors in southern Maine for the past 8 years. I'm a middle-school teacher on summer break with plenty of extra time/love. I can be flexible with times/specific preferences and am open to all days of the week. I am caring, knowledgeable, and tidy and will treat your pets + space with the utmost respect and care. Drop-ins will be for 30 minutes unless longer is requested and agreed upon. Please do not hesitate to message me with any questions or concerns!
About: Hello! I’m a highly active outdoors-person who treats every pet like family. I have prior house- and pet-sitting experience with dogs, cats, and even goats, and I’m responsible and respectful of homes and routines. I enjoy long walks, pet playtime, and keeping pets calm and happy while you’re away :) Current remote worker with a flexible schedule that allows me to provide your pet with excellent care. I'm a highly active person, so long walks are a bonus! I run a small seasonal gardening business, which has fostered a strong sense of personal responsibility and plenty of experience of working within other people's homes.
About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. Whether it is taking care of my own dogs or my neighbors I am an avid animal lover. Dogs bring me so much happiness and I love being able to give animals the love they deserve! I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to do walks and play with your dogs. I am willing to pick up random chefs and I’m more than happy to take care of one or more dogs. I always make sure to have eyes on the dog(s) and I love finding fun activities to do with the dogs. Whether it is a hike or an enrichment activity I truly value all the time I get to spend with dogs. I make sure to follow all rules regarding dogs in and out of the house.
About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. I have taken care of dogs of all stages from newborns to fully matured dogs of family, friends, and neighbors. Since moving I’ve been looking to fill that responsibility once again on Rover. I have a full time job from 8am -4pm Monday to Friday. I am available any time after 4pm weekdays, and any time on weekends. I have a leash, dog toys, waste bags, and more equipment on hand. I strive to take upmost care of all dogs and treat them as my own. I am happy to take any instructions given to me.
About: I absolutely love all animals, and have cared for dogs since I was born. In addition, I've helped foster and adopt out over 40 dogs in my life, so I have extensive experience with caring for dogs of all types. I recently relocated to Maine and I have lots of free time to care for your furry family member. Bring on the pups please! I love them. I have a large apartment in the West End of Portland. It's very quiet with minimal traffic and lots of other dogs around. I can crate your dog but also I am home most days and prefer to spend time with dogs rather than leave them alone. Would love to take them on hikes / beach days if they are love that as well!
About: I have worked with and cared for dogs all my life, and cats about half. I have trained dozens of dogs, even ones that have been “impossible”. I am a very active person and outside is better than in! Expect to get your pets back tired so you all can rest before you’re back at the grind. I love animals and visitors for my dogs and play partners for my own high energy levels. And as always, smiles and safety first. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have strong long leads, one attached to the porch (20feet) and one yard one, with a 250lbs resistant or weight limit, 50 feet long that allows dogs to safely visit and play outside in yard without wondering off. As well, a small empty dog park near by to play ball and “run free” and we frequent other dog parks. Right now I have a full-time job and just looking for a side gig doing something I love on the weekends. I love animals, even the quirky ones. Right now, just working on the weekends I’m available. I do have two small dogs at home that need to play, and love other pets. I can watch them at my home, bring them to the dog park or at your home, if I can bring my dogs with.
About: I grew up on a farm, so I've had experience with a variety of animals, especially dogs! My family has always had at least one dog, all with varying sizes. I've endured it all from the ankle biters, the sweetest pitbulls and border collies, to the greatest of the danes. I'm currently a college student, so my evenings and weekends are free! Being stuck in a classroom gives me the fuel I need to go on a walk with your dog or experience (safe) zoomies with your cat. Summer time is usually great because it means more time outdoors for all of us! I'm currently unable to house your pets, but I can be with them in their favorite place- whether that be your home or on a walk!
“Always so great with our animals. Lots of glamor pics and always makes sure our dogs have a walk as long as it is weather appropriate. Can not thank her enough for coming through.”
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!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Falmouth
Matthew did a great job with our dogs. He took them out on walks and took great pictures for us to see. He also gave them treats and was good to them. He had 3 dogs to deal with over the time and they all seemed happy with him. Great dog sitter who I would definitely use again!
Rachel went above and beyond when our Miss Nahla was quite unexpectedly less than welcoming to her, despite them meeting twice beforehand. Rachel was willing to work a different approach and was wonderfully successful. We are very grateful for her being a super and direct communicator and for giving it a go a second time.
Hannah did a great job with 2 drop-in visits for our 2 pups. She informed us that one of our pups got into some food that was left on the counter. She feed, walked and played with the younger pup as well. We very much appreciate her assistance with our pups when we were out with the family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Falmouth is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. 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.
As of October 2026, there are 945 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Falmouth. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Falmouth 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.

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.
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. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
