Liz is wonderful -- she was able to accommodate us over the holiday weekend on short notice when the forecast was too hot to be able to travel safely with our dog Skynet. She was awesome with him, and very understanding of him being a little excitable around new people. Would highly recommend contacting Liz for any needs you have!

Laura was great! She gave us detailed updates while we were gone and always included pictures, which we loved. She also made sure to give our cats love and attention! We would definitely ask Laura for help again in the future!

About: I've owned and been around a variety of dog breeds, ages, and temperaments since I 10 years old. My family has owned mini schnauzers (including rescuing senior dogs), large breed hunting dogs, and Shepard breeds. I know the importance of maintaining a schedule, keeping high energy dogs exercised, and reinforcing training techniques for the breeds mentioned above. I also am able to give medications (both oral and injectable), and care for dogs after surgery (I volunteered with my grandad who is a veterinarian at shelters and assisted with minor surgeries and after surgery care). I just finished up college, and applying for another program. My schedule is pretty open allowing me to meet the needs of your pets, keeping them on a similar schedule while you are away As I've mentioned, I know the importance of exercising and maintaining a schedule and will keep to the routine of your pet. I also love cuddling and just spending time with animals.

About: I’ve always loved animals since I was a little kid, which made picking my career so easy. I’ve been a vet tech for over 5 years and have experience taking care of people’s pets both in a hospital and at home! I have a 6 year old lab mix that I adore, and I promise to make your pets feel loved and safe when they are with me! I currently work at a veterinary hospital M, T, Th, F. I can do walks and at home services on Wednesday and weekends. If these days don’t work just let me know and I can work around it! If I’m watching pets at my home I have great dog parks at my complex and live in a safe area to take them on walks. If I’m at your home they will get lots of play time, walks, and attention while I’m caring for them.

About: I firmly believe that dogs are four-legged angels on this planet that deserve the very best from we humans. They give us their best every day, who are we to deny them of anything less in return?! As a dog walker and visitor through Rover, I provide my furry and human clients with nothing less than exceptional care, safety and compassion! I’m currently taking time off from teaching special education after 15 years! I’ve decided my next venture will be through Rover providing exceptional care, commitment, and compassion for dogs and their humans. I’ve truly never met a dog I haven’t loved and can’t wait to meet yours too. I will carefully follow any instructions you provide for your pet care. Safety is my top priority when working with dogs. Additionally, I will adhere to any preferred training methods as I know the value of consistency in training dogs. I’m an honest and thorough person ready to help you and your pet live your best lives.

About: I am reliable! When you’re gone, there will be zero stress. ☺️ I’ve had years of pet sitting experience. From puppies/kittens to senior dogs/cats. I work for myself so my schedule can be very flexible! My availability can be as short or long as you need me, 7 days a week. I typically go to the house in which I am hired at. That way I know that the animal and the owner feel most comfortable!

About: My super strength as a pet caregiver, is my interest in getting to know an animal's personality and working mindfully and respectfully with their nature. I prioritize safety, trust and attention. I've taught young children and raised kittens, puppies and chickens over the last twenty years. As a lover of Great Pyrenees (having raised three) and cats, I have great respect for the subtle and obvious efforts our animals use to communicate with us. I'm experienced with all ages. Senior pets are very dear to me. I've had the honor to provide comforting care for my own animals and provide tender touch, medications, dietary support, and a calm presence through their final months. I also love training and nurturing puppies. I am available to provide individualized day and overnight care for your pet(s) and plants. Contact me to discuss your short-term or longterm needs. I am especially interested in helping people feel at ease during holidays and vacations by providing qualified, experienced multi-day pet care. Mindfulness, kindness, and experience guide my services. I'm happy to travel to care for pets in the comfort of their home or mine! My place was designed for Great Pyrenees. I have a large, protective deck and fenced yard for supervised off-leash, outdoor time.

About: Having grown up with dogs in my family since I was very young, I have seen how they add so much value to our lives. Our pets lives are short, so they deserve our fullest love and attention. You can rely on me to walk, feed, play, bathe, and care for your pet to my fullest potential. I am home a majority of the time throughout the day, and have plenty of time to care for your pup! I also have a flexible schedule, and can work something out with you. I live near trails and the beach, my home is clean and comfortable. I have a small yard for your pup to play in. I usually spend most my days outdoors.

About: Hi there! I’m Sydney, and I’ve always had a love for dogs. I grew up with them and recently adopted a wonderful rescue dog, Asher. I know how important it is to have a caring and reliable walker, and I’m excited to offer that to your dog! My current dog is reactive so I feel comfortable working with other dogs who are also reactive because they still deserve to experience the world! I’m currently in grad school, and working with dogs is a perfect way to combine my passion with my goals. You can trust that I’ll treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I am a full time grad student , but I’ve always made time for what I love — and that includes caring for dogs! Although my days are busy with classes I prioritize providing walks and playtime for my dog around, ensuring he gets the attention, exercise, and fun he needs. I’m flexible with timing and can adjust to fit your dog’s needs, whether it’s a midday walk, early morning, or evening outing. Whether in my home or yours, I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety. If I'm caring for your dog in your home, I’ll make sure they have plenty of space to roam and relax, following your routines and preferences. I’m comfortable with crating if that’s part of your dog’s routine, and I’ll ensure they feel safe and secure when in their crate. When I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm and safe environment where your dog can enjoy playtime, rest, and plenty of love. I treat every dog like part of my family and make sure they’re comfortable and happy throughout their stay. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, you can count on me to provide the best care!

About: New to pet sitting but have a life-time of experience with dogs. Dogs seem to respond to me easily and favorably. I enjoy caring for dogs. I am fully retired so my schedule can be very flexible. I will try at all times to accomodate a client especially if a short notice request is made. I will only house sit dogs in a clients house. I will care for the dogs feeding, all necessary walks, and of course some play time.

About: I’ve had dogs of my own for the last 21 years, and have prioritize their happiness and care since I’ve been able to handle them on my own. I have about two years of professional dog sitting experience. More specifically I have lots of experience dealing with dogs with health issues. I am able to adapt to dogs of both energy levels, and of all sizes. I currently have a serving position where I work dinner time, so I am able to care for your pets during the morning and afternoon, but my schedule is flexible and I may be able to help out at night depending on the day and time. I live by a very laid-back and non-busy beach with my very friendly dog, who is great with both small and large dogs, and loves to play. I am able to adapt to any environment for pet care, whether it is in the suburbs or a rural area.

With the reunion the day before, Maizy recognized Rachael immediately, even though it had been three months!She greeted her with a happy smile and tail wags! Thanks again, Rachael for taking such good care of our girl!

About: I love to care for dogs and cats, big or small, kittens, and puppies, welcome, too! I have great energy and am a loving person that has built bonds with all the special pets I’ve been graciously surrounded with all of my life. Whether healthy pups who love long walks, and fetch, or older dogs and cats that require special diets and gentle care, I love to help them in any way I can. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so my mornings and evenings, and most weekends, too, I am here to assist with yours! Some of my clients and friends feel more comfortable leaving notes to assure their pets get the same routine they are used to. I follow all instructions, when available, and make sure to stay prompt with feeding and walking times. The needs of any pet I am caring for are important to me and I want to make sure they feel safe and loved in my care. My home is welcome to boarding if the supplies are provided.

About: Lifelong dog lover with plenty of availability for long morning walks. I am a current medical student with a flexible schedule, available for last‑minute walks or overnight stays for the right family. I look forward to getting to know you! I’m a first‑year medical student currently on summer vacation, which gives me plenty of free time throughout the week. I’m available for both morning and afternoon walks, depending on what your dog needs. My days are flexible, so I can easily fit regular weekly walks or occasional check‑ins into my routine. I care for pets in their own home so they can stick to their normal routine. I handle feeding, walks, and any instructions you leave, and make sure your dog gets steady attention throughout the day. My focus is keeping things calm, consistent, and comfortable for your pup.

Thank you SO much Marlena!! I came home to a calm and happy pup! My dog Sully is picky about people and this was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous but he immediately gravitated to Marlena and she did an amazing job with care! The updates were perfect and she snapped some great pictures. We will definitely love to continue to work with her :)

We hired Jillian for an evening of in-home pet sitting for our 11-month-old Westie, and we couldn't be happier with how it went. Our pup was a little hesitant at first (some classic Westie barking!), but warmed up to Jillian within just a few minutes — a great sign. Jillian sent thorough updates throughout the night, which gave us real peace of mind, followed our puppy's nightly routine to a T, and was completely respectful of our home. We'd happily book her again!

Nikki is fantastic! I was nervous to book a new sitter outside of my regular, but I was immediately put at ease when Nikki arrived. She was patient with my anxious dog, and asked great questions about providing the best care for our rabbit. While we were away she gave us plenty of photos and even videos detailing how they were, that she was shutting the window for the evening, etc. In these videos we could also tell how comfortable our animals were with her, which made being away so much easier. I am confident that if anything out of the ordinary were to happen while she was caring for our pets, she would go above and beyond in a heartbeat to do whatever she could to help. I will ABSOLUTELY be booking Nikki again!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Saco

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Saco on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting 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 Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 979 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Saco. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Saco stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

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 Saco 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 .

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.

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 Saco with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 99% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

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.
