About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine it any other way. I’ve had pets since I was born and grew up with dogs, always taking an active role in their care—feeding, bathing, walking, running with them, and, most importantly, loving them. Over the years, I’ve also cared for pets belonging to neighbors, friends, and siblings while they were out of town, giving me experience with a wide range of routines and personalities. Although I couldn’t have cats growing up due to allergies in my household, I’ve always loved them and spent lots of time with friends’ and neighbors’ cats, frequently cat‑sitting whenever I had the chance. These experiences helped me learn to respect and understand cats’ boundaries and individual comfort levels. During undergrad, I adopted my first cat, and after moving to Portland, Maine, I welcomed a second so my older cat could have a companion. Living with cats has given me a deep appreciation for their unique personalities and needs. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, including pets with special diets, medications, medical needs, or shy personalities. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress‑free as possible. While you’re away, you can also expect plenty of photo updates, because I know how reassuring it is to see how your furry family member is doing. I work completely remotely as a Communications Specialist for The American Chestnut Foundation, which gives me a great deal of flexibility in my day‑to‑day schedule. Because of this, I’m able to plan my work around pet care needs and be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m comfortable working alongside pets and spending extended time with them, whether that means keeping a cat company, being around for a dog who doesn’t like being alone, or making sure medications, walks, and meals happen right on schedule. I’m happy to accommodate whatever routine your pet is used to. You can expect consistent care, plenty of attention, and lots of updates while you’re away. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and able to stick to their normal routines. I find this helps reduce stress and allows me to give more personalized, attentive care. While in your home, I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and quiet companionship. I’m comfortable spending extended time with pets, including working remotely while keeping them company if that’s helpful for your pet. I also make sure your home is treated with respect and left just as I found it. For dogs, I’m happy to take them on walks in your neighborhood or nearby outdoor areas, following any preferences you have for routes, pacing, or training needs. My goal is to provide safe, consistent, and loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s daily life.
“Hannah was super cool and chill. We have anxious cats who do not like when we travel—Hannah clearly did well because they were both super calm and friendly when we got back. She sent lots of pictures and overall did really great. 10/10 for cat rating.”
About: I’ve had my own pup since I was about 15. Love spending time with animals of all kinds. Over the years I’ve always been happy to house sit/walk dogs of friends and family. I’m responsible, reliable, and loving towards all animals I work full time at Enterprise car rentals however I have 3 days a week where I’m out early afternoon. Most of my free time is spent running I’m SUPER excited to work dog walking (or running if they are up for it) into my schedule. I’m also more than happy to house sit. Working with animals makes my heart happy! I have an elderly pup my self so I understand the need for extra care with the seniors. Im good with taking specific directions for each dog and continuing training practices as described.
“Anna was so wonderful. She watched our cat while we went away for the 4th of July. She was incredibly communicative and sent wonderful pictures/updates. Would recommend Anna to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter!”
About: I've grown up with cats and dogs, and love spending time with them. I like to go for long walks, play with pets, or just hangout and keep them company. Also love art, and can paint a watercolor or acrylic portrait of your pet, if you like! I'm currently working full time from 8-4:30, but have plenty of time in the evenings! Also, most Wednesdays and Fridays I work from home, so I can help out during the day if I'm in your area. I will care for your pet in your home in accordance with whatever rules you follow, whether that's keeping them in certain areas and off furniture, or giving them plenty of freedom to run around and cuddle.
“Nishat was extremely timely and quick to respond when I needed some last minute care! She sent lots of photos for updates and made me feel better that my kitties were getting some play time and love while I was away 🥰”
“Viva is so attentive and dedicated to our dog when she comes to walk her! We always get the best photos and reports back from Viva after her visits. She asks about our training goals to keep things consistent for our dog! Highly recommend!”
“Katie took great care of our pup when we were out of town. It was obvious during the meet and greet that she’s very knowledgeable with dog care, and the photos from her time with our dog show a very happy pet!”
“Hannah was amazing. Super responsive, communicative and caring. Exactly what you want from someone watching your pets!! 10/10 recommend and will be using her again. Thanks Hannah!”
About: Hi, I’m Estelle! With 15+ years of experience, I love caring for dogs and cats of all kinds. Whether it’s a fun walk or a cozy boarding stay, your pet will get plenty of love, play, and attention! I am a current medical student studying to become at doctor. My schedule, while demanding, is pretty flexible. Available most weeknights and weekends with select days blocked for exams and travel. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs, and I treat every home with the same respect I’d want for my own.
About: My first job was at Mainely Dog, a doggy daycare where I fed and entertained groups of dogs-all sizes and personalities. I’ve grown up with many dogs in my family. We also fostered and took in dogs with behavioral difficulties, even had up to 5 dogs at once so I’m used to handling multiple dogs at a time! My dream has always been to own my own business to help and love animals. I can’t wait to meet your pups! I currently work a part time job where I work 3-4 days a week from 4:30-10:30 so I am available the rest of those days and my days off. I am attentive and can keep your pets safe whether that’s in your home or outside in the yard. When out on walks, I am skilled at reading your dog and other dog’s ability to interact in a safe environment from my experience at the doggy daycare.
“Chrissie is exactly who you want taking care of your pests when you can’t. I had a dog sitter cancel last minute before a trip and decided to try Rover. Well, I hit the jackpot! She is very kind, thorough, dedicated and goes above and beyond if needed. I completely trust her with my animals and in my home. I’d give her 10 starts if I could.”
“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.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Falmouth stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
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.
To find sitters in Falmouth with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 sitter.
