“We had such a great experience with Emily! Taking care of three animals is no small task, but she handled everything with so much care, attention, and professionalism. From the start, communication was excellent — we always felt informed and reassured while we were away. It was clear our pets were not only well taken care of, but genuinely cared for. Each of them has their own personality and needs, and Emily took the time to understand and meet all of them. We came home to happy, relaxed pets and a well-kept home, which says everything. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Stephanie was great! She was a huge help when another sitter cancelled last minute. She took great care of our dog and home and communicated well through the experience. We would definitely re-book with her if ever needed! Thank you, Stephanie!”
“Kaylyn was absolutely fantastic. She watched our two dogs and cat for a week. I swear our house was cleaner when we came home than when we left. She was very trustworthy and responsive. We will definitely use her again!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Alyssa! She was easy to communicate with, sweet, great with our two dogs (including a new puppy). She gave frequent and thorough updates with cute pictures. I felt completely at ease leaving her with both my house and my dogs! We would 100% have Alyssa back again :)”
“Amanda is amazing! She took great care of our pups and sent the cutest pics. She left our house spotless and I just can’t thank her enough for the affection and extra attention she gave our 2 boys. We would definitely use her again and again. Thank you so much, Amanda!!”
“Martha was amazing! She asked great questions to make sure my pets got the best care and she was constantly sending updates. She even cleaned the bedding after staying and it was like she was never even there! Would definitely book again.”
“Meghan was a great dog sitter for my two pups! She maintained communication throughout, was always punctual, and showed great flexibility. Most importantly, she was incredibly kind and caring toward my dogs. I recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter!”
“Miranda was so patient and understanding with our senior chihuahua and won him over. She sent regular updates with pictures. She was very respectful, and took great care, of our home when she stayed the night. We felt so comfortable leaving our dog, and our home, in her care. She is great!”
About: I’m Cody! I grew up with 3 dogs, and I worked at a dog daycare for over a year. I’ve done on and off pet-sitting and walking through craigslist and friends over the years as well. I have 2 cats and a rabbit at home, so I’m good with all different types of animals. I can do pet sitting, check ins, and walks. I have a car with a large backseat so I could also transport your pet to a park or a preferred walking trail if you’d like. I am available weekday mornings before 8am and afternoons after 4pm. My weekends are completely open! Thank you for considering me to hang out with your pets and I hope to hear from you soon! Cody
About: I have been taking care of dogs big and small since I was 10 years old, as well as pet fish, hamsters, guinea pigs. I’ve always offered to help family friends neighbors take care of there’s as well wether it’s walking, bringing them on rides, feeding, bathing, or just giving lots of love to them while there owners are gone. I’ve also worked at a couple farms before so I have plenty of experience with all sorts of animals and a very big heart for every single one of them. I have a big vehicle so if they are ok in the car I can bring them to the lake, for a walk on one of the local trails, or just for a ride on a nice day. I love spoiling my own pup so yours are gonna be spoiled just as much! Most dogs I’ve been around have been put in crates wether they were being trained as a puppy or can’t be left out in the house alone so I know how to handle that if needed at any time. I make sure there water bowls are ALWAYS full and when to feed them. I clean up there messes if needed and try to keep things tidy even if they just take everything out again. I give them lots of pets and attention and learn there attitudes and personality as well as I can so I know them better and they can trust me.
“Melissa took great care of our little Samgirl, who has some special needs as an elderly dog. She takes copious notes to ensure she has all the specific routines down pat. She is very friendly and genuinely caring. She went above and beyond with a couple of household cleaning tasks as well. We look forward to having Melissa back!”
“Kourtney was perfectly wonderful with my four Papillons. Undaunted by numbers, she seamlessly fed, walked, and stayed in contact with me, providing photos as the Paps progressed through their day. Highly recommended. I was able to enjoy my travels and event, without worry. Kourtney is an authentic dog lover and these dogs love her !”
About: I've been a small animal veterinary technician for more than 10 years. My specialty is senior care, including managing cats or dogs with diabetes or kidney disease. I previously had a cat-sitting business when I worked at The Cat Practice in New York City in the mid 1990s. Here in Maine, I have had occasional pet sitting jobs. I am also an experienced horse owner. I am currently working part-time, and can easily fit in visits to your furry friends. I am based out of Gray and will travel within 30-45 minutes of my home. I can also provide over-night care as well. For home visits, I will spend at least 30 minutes with your pet at each visit, if not longer. During that time I will play with them, take them for walks (if canine), or sit quietly if a kitty or older canine prefers. I will feed, ensure they have fresh, clean water, and maintain litter boxes if feline.
“Kyla has watched my huskies a couple time now and she is a wonderful person to trust with your pets. She is reliable and communicative and a definite animal-lover. Absolutely book Kyla if you have the chance (just not when my girls need her… haha).”
“Ashley was great. She was easy to communicate with and took great care of our house and our dogs while we were away for the weekend! We look forward to using her as our dog-sitter again in the future!”
“Danielle did a great job with my puppy. She arrived when she was supposed to, did all the extra puppy bathroom breaks/cleanups, kept her out of things, and provided me updates through the night. Thanks!!”
About: I’ve had pets (ranging from dogs and cats all the way to bearded dragons and bunnies) for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up around animals and I’m now making it into my career! I’ve worked at a dog grooming salon for the past two summers, pet sit for the last 5 years, and am now shadowing at a veterinary office. I’m excited to gain more experience with animals as I look towards applying to veterinary school. I’m working part-time three days a week as a dog grooming assistant and shadowing at a veterinary office on Tuesdays. I’ll be available to pet sit for most of the week for the entirety of the summer, before I head back to college. I’m very vigilant with my own pets on always being leashed when outdoors, unless in a fenced in yard. I’m especially careful around open and closed doors, as I know how sneaky pets can be sometimes!

FAQs for House Sitting - South Casco
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in South Casco on Rover is $70.62 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 696 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across South Casco. 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 South Casco 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 South Casco 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.
Tip: 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 South Casco 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 Rover Guarantee , 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Casco. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
