“I am so happy to have found Connie on Rover. Connie was communicative, punctual, and professional. She exceeded my expectations and I will not hesitate to hire her again to take care of my cat!”
“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!”
“Abigail is the best! She provided excellent care of my cat while I was on vacation, and was even able to accommodate a last minute additional visit when I was unexpectedly delayed. I would not hesitate to have her back when personable, responsible, and professional pet care is needed. Thanks Abigail!”
“Nikki is the perfect dog sitter! She had a great mix of energy and calm around our two pups, and her attention to detail was impressive. Knowing the dogs were in such good hands made leaving them so much easier.”
“Dannelle deserves 10 stars. She was so helpful on such short notice, she sent pictures everyday, and also text me when she got to my house and left. Can't say enough good things about her!”
About: Hi! I’m Khaila, I provide warm, reliable care with a focus on making every pup feel safe, happy, and at home while you’re away. I live in a cozy, dog-friendly home near the coast and love exploring local trails and parks. My Frenchie, Stuart, is a good boy who loves making new friends. I understand how important your dog is to your family, and when they’re with me, they’re part of mine too. 💛 I work from home most days and I perform better with a dog in my lap or at my feet ☺️ We’ll take breaks, walks, play at the local dog park, play at the beach, or hike local trails each day. When I’m visiting your home for care while you’re away, my focus is on playtime, walks, or just getting that energy out while ensuring your pets have all that they need. When they’re with my family, they’ll play hard, relax hard, and wag harder.
“Nishat agreed to a multi-day, multiple visits per day, booking with less than 2 weeks notice. She stopped by to meet them in advance of our trip and took her time to get to know each of them. She was very calm, gentle, and caring. Our dog and cats took to her right away. She did a great job caring for them while we were away, even diligently providing them medication that was prescribed *after* she had agreed to the booking. We are so pleased with Nishat and grateful to have found her!”
“Carmen is the best! I love the photos she takes of Meatball when she’s checking in on him so I don’t have to worry about him when I’m away. I think he likes her more than me 🙂”
“I’m very thankful for Julie! She took the time to come to my home ahead of time to meet the kitties and practice administering their oral medication. She was prompt and consistent with her care and I could tell my cats had less separation anxiety than usual. Thank you Julie!”
About: Friends, family, coworkers and mutual friends have trusted me to care for their fur-babies for many years. I have experience with all types of dogs and all types of situations. Whether it be a feed and a quick potty break, walks, or a week long stay, I have consistently provided a safe environment for these dogs. I’m a middle school teacher with a lot of free time in the summer and open afternoons during the school year! I am hoping to fill my time helping your family! I’m no stranger to cleaning up messes in the home. Although, I avoid these messes by being consistent with walks/letting dogs out to use the bathroom on a regular basis. I love creating a safe, but stimulating environment for dogs to spend their energy. As the weather warms up, I love being outside and/or going on walks to get both me and the dog(s) out of the house!
“Wonderful to have look after our 3 maniacs as an evening drop in dog sitter. Thank you for even getting our guy who hates rain out for a potty break. That is the fitness of someone who understands dog psychology and our requested services.”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, and goats! I love animals and I am a biology-pre vet major at the University of New England! I currently work part time 3 days a week. Which leave me with the lots of time to help out with your pets! I am available in the mornings and most afternoons. I have a nice big yard for yours pets to enjoy and I have lived with dogs my whole life so my house is definitely fit for a dog!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Saco
Megan was super kind and communicative. We enjoyed the daily pictures and updates for our cat Sophie. She offered extra home watching services while we were away. She seems to have more experience with dogs than cats, but we felt very comfortable leaving our cat in her hands.
Sparrow is wonderful! They are very attentive to detail and as agreed made sure they arrived at the specified time and all tasks performed. They are very compassionate and clearly love being around animals. I could be assured that if there was a problem or issue they were unsure of they would bring it to my attention. I have terrible PTSD from another pet sitters grave mistake, but Sparrow helped put my mind at ease. You won’t be disappointed hiring Sparrow to take care of your beloved pets.
Emma saved the whole day! This was our first time using Rover, and Emma made it easy by being communicative. She was kind and flexible enough to meet River ahead of time, which made us all feel super comfortable with leaving our baby in her care. McRib seemed very comfortable with Emma and we would 100% book with her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Saco on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,005 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 Saco. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
