“Rose was awesome! Thank you so much, Rose, for the good care of our two kitties while we were out of town. We loved seeing the updates and pictures. and we really appreciate you working with us during the holiday schedule! This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience - thank you again!”
About: I frequently petsit my friend dogs and cats when they are out of town. I grew up with dogs and really miss having one at home. I work full time and I would be a great fit if your critter is ok with being left alone while I work for about 8 hours. I'm available most days and if I have a blocked off day you really need petsitting, please let me know and mostly I probably adjust my schedule. Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks! I typically enjoy spending as much time as possible with your pet! I love going on long walks and quick runs with pets. Please let me know if you have any particular care needs for your pets!
“Justine was fabulous with our cats and we will definitely request her again! Our shyest kitty warmed up in record time. She kept us up to date and was proactive with packages and such. 10/10!”
About: I love spending time outdoors in all seasons. I’ve cared for many pets and homes over the years, always with love and intention as if they were my own. I am experienced and comfortable with administering medication. I have a knack for noticing when something is a bit off, and have taken care of dogs with Lyme disease, dogs in heat, dogs with upset stomach, and even saved a dog’s life who began having seizures when their owner was in Europe. I also love cats and am an experienced horse person, having taken care of horses all my life. Chickens, rabbits, geese and ducks are all in my level of experience as well. I love being around animals and enjoy getting to know their unique personalities and energies! I currently work part-time in Portland on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays. Some of my work is remote and flexible, so I can generally adapt my schedule to fit your needs. I am a rule-follower and will always care for your home and spaces as you wish. I take pride in leaving spaces better than I found them and have cared for many homes during a period of my life that was nomadic.
“Anna was great! She took care of our dog and reported back very thoroughly. He was such a happy camper - highly recommend using Anna to care for your fur baby.”
“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.”
“Avital, you took such great care of our Betty! Thank you for your pictures, communication, and thoughtfulness. We are excited to have you back with Betty next weekend! Thank you!!!”
“I was in a last minute punch after a cat sitter changed plans last minute. Nishat was exceptionally responsive and swooped in and saved the day! She also took great care of my kittens!”
About: Animals have always been part of my life, and I am currently in a stage where I cannot have my own, so I take care of other peoples for my fix! Spending time with animals bring so much joy and light into my life, I hope I can do the same for them. I am comfortable with dogs in all stages of life. I'm currently working part time at the hospital, and am able to plan out my schedule about a month or two in advance. I am looking for a couple of consistent clients, but if you need help here and there I'm your girl! I treat all animals with respect and love. My highest concern is always the animals safety, I am constantly assessing the situation when I have an animal in my care.
About: Hi!! I'm Mia, a student living in Portland, Maine. I grew up with dogs and have cared for family and friends' pets for years, so I'm comfortable with different sizes, energy levels, and routines. I have hands-on experience giving dogs insulin injections, so if your pup is diabetic, I can stick to their schedule and keep an eye on how they're doing. I also have a cat with medical issues of my own, so I understand how much patience and attention a pet with health needs takes. I send photo and text updates after every visit, so you'll always know how your pet is doing. With my current schedule I prefer drop-ins and walks, but I'm open to boarding, house sitting, or anything else you need. • Mon/Wed/Fri: afternoons and evenings (after about 1 PM) • Tue/Thu: lunchtime walks and drop-ins • Sat/Sun: wide open for walks, drop-ins, and overnights But can be flexible Walks and drop-ins (in your home) • I'll go over your pet's routine, feeding, meds, and emergency contacts at a meet-and-greet before the first visit. • Dogs stay leashed on walks, and I use your preferred collar, harness, and route. I don't let them off-leash or approach unfamiliar dogs unless you've okayed it. • I carry waste bags and water, and I'm careful about ice, heat, and busy roads, especially in Portland's winters. • I lock up when I leave, and I never share your address or key details. • I send a photo and text after every visit, and I'll tell you right away if something seems off. • I follow your vet's feeding and medication instructions exactly, and I log doses and times for pets on insulin or other meds.
“Julia was wonderful with our dogs! She provided excellent care to our animals, and kept us informed with how they were all doing during her drop-in visits. She is dependable, reliable, and caring. Thank you, Julia!”
About: I have grown up with dogs, ranging from a teacup yorkie to a bullmastiff lab. I recently adopted a mix terrier of my own who has become by best friend. I have been trusted by friends and family to care for their pets like I do my own and have been doing so much more recently! I am currently working full time but love to start and end my day with pups! Whether is it an early morning snuggle or walk to a late evening lounge or stroll, I am sure to accommodate whatever your four legged babies need! I care for your pets of course as you ask and with a lots of love. I respect the guidelines you set for your furry friends and will do my best to make them feel secure as it can be nerve racking for them to not have their people around!
About: I grew up with big dogs and many cats and have a lot of experience with them! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their pets while they are out of town or if they are behind on time. I am an animal lover and would love to keep your pet company while you’re away. I currently work full time so my schedule varies weekly! I would’ve to hep get your pups outside when I get home from work or before depending on my shift. Please reach out to coordinate! Not only will I walk you dog but I’ll make sure to give them lots of love and more than just a bathroom break! I’ll make sure to get the energy they’ve been saving all day out.
“Knowing that Katie was coming over to tend to our dog put my mind at ease and made our vacation so much more enjoyable! She was very detail oriented and covered all the details before coming since it was our first visit. Will most definitely use her services again!”
About: i have taken care of a lab and a sweet tortie cat throughout my life! i have also walked/fed/sat for several pets, including single dogs and cats, dog and cat combinations, and multiple cats and dogs. I am recently graduated from college and am looking to fill my free time! I currently am working a day-shift job (9:30-6) and am willing to care for animals both before and after those hours. i make sure that the pet feels comfortable (or like it can tolerate) my presence before most activities! a lot of how i care for my animals are very schedule based, usually they even tell me in their own ways when they are ready/want to walk or be fed!
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.
“Kathleen has gone over and beyond for my puppy . She takes such great care of her. She’s very attentive and reliable . I would request her every time I need a sitter.”

This is my second time using Nicholas and his wife, Dominique. They are simply wonderful with my 13-month-old Golden Retriever. My pup absolutely loves her time with them. Nicholas and Dominique spoiled my pup with love and snuggles and were patient with my little Rascal. They helped us with ongoing leash training and reinforcing good manners. My family will definitely use them again and would highly recommend them to our friends.
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!
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 Pet Sitting in Falmouth is $19 per visit as of November 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 November 2026, there are 953 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Falmouth. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
