She sent lots of pictures and updates and did great with his heath issues! I would recommend Kayla for anyone looking for a trusting companion for their pets.

“This was the first time I used Katie to care for Ginger but it won’t be the last! Katie did a wonderful job taking really good care of Ginger for an overnight at my house and the day before and after. She attended to Ginger’s every need and sent me updates and pictures, too! She even left my house better than before. Don’t look any further—call Katie! But not when I need her! 😉”

About: 🐾 Hey there! I'm Emily, a passionate pet-sitter with a lifelong love for animals. Growing up, pets were always a part of my family, teaching me the importance of care and communication. I understand how hard it can be to leave your furry friend behind when you're away, which is why I strive to provide a loving and attentive experience for both you and your pet. I ensure they receive the same love and attention they would get at home. Can't wait to meet your adorable furry friend! 🐾 I am available mornings and evenings everyday. I work from home so I have the flexibility to check on your pet throughout the day or work from where ever your pet is! I care for animals by listening. Pets tell you what they need a lot of the time! Whether we are going on long walks, going to the dog park or just hanging out at home I’ll make sure your pet has a friend!

It’s hard for me to leave them for extended periods of time, but as soon as I met Silvia I knew that her kind personality was just the right fit for my dogs. I would hire Silvia again in the future, I really appreciated the care she gave my dogs while I was gone.”

About: I have always loved both dogs and cats since I was a kid! I have been around dogs since I was little and I live with a cat now! I would adore taking your furry friend for a walk or checking up on your cat when you are away. I am currently trying to fit dog walking into my schedule in the mornings before my job starts (STARTING IN MAY). I can also check up on your furry friend in the evening. I am also building my online business so days I am not at my other job are more flexible! I am very good at directions and pay attention to details. I will follow the directions left by the owners when doing a check in! I listen to the pet, and if they are not so sure of me, I let them come to me (especially with cats!) And of course there will be lots of pets!

She put our mind at ease while we were out of town knowing our dogs would be cared for at the highest level. She was very communicative sending texts and photos/videos several times a day which we loved! We can’t recommend her enough!”

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.

“Emily did an exceptional job doing an in house stay with our fur pack. They each have their own unique personalities and can be a bit of a handful, but she treated each one with love and attention to meet their needs. They warmed up to her quickly and we could tell when we came home that while they missed us, they had not been stressed with a new person taking care of them. This is a huge win. Emily left the house spotless and we couldn't have asked for a better person to watch our home and fur family while we were away. We recommend Emily to anyone who wants their animals to be loved on and taken care of and to have their home respected and well watched.”

“Marissa was fantastic! I will definitely use her again! My girls fell in love with her, and one likes to test people to see if she can gain control and run the house. Marissa was firm in who was in control, but loving to jot hurt feelings. She provided regular updates and together we got through some tummy issues to make it where I got back home. The house kitties, who were not part of her duties other than to accept snuggles, adored her as well. At one point she was surrounded by 2 dogs and 2 kitties touching her at once! When we got back, as excited as my dogs were to see me, they also looked around me to see if Marissa was there. My animals tell me all I need to know about a person, abd they adore her. Your pets will too!”

Michaela lived in our house for two weeks and took great care of our terrier mix, Picasso. She sent us photos and gave us updates, including the fact that he had been upgraded at night from his kennel to her bed - which was fine with us. (We now refer to her as "Picasso's girlfriend" though I'm not sure if she knows that yet, LOL.) Anyway, when we came home, he jumped alternately between us and her, whining happily, which I took as a very good sign that he was bonded to all three of us! We felt very comfortable having her in our home with our most prized asset. We will absolutely book her again for future travels.

Gwen took care of our senior babies for a few overnights. They were very calm and contented when we got home.🥰 Gwen has a large dog just like ours and Nahla was all over her from the very first minute. Alphie, our king of the house cat came looking for lovins soon after. Gwen didn't blink when Alphie came down with a cold a few days before we left and thus needed twice daily meds. We are so grateful we found Gwen.

Hope did so well with our cat! I’m so glad that we came across her. Hope communicated well, sent lots of pictures and updates, brought in some mail for us, and made sure our cat was well taken care of. You can tell that she “gets” cats. It was clear that our cat felt comfortable and at ease with her, which really helped us feel at ease while we were away! We would definitely hire Hope to stay with our cat again and highly recommend her as a pet sitter.

FAQs for House Sitting - Falmouth

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Falmouth on Rover is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $83 per night. 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 634 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Falmouth. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Falmouth walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Falmouth maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Falmouth. On Rover:

  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
