“What can I say wow! Michèle was absolutely fantastic, Dolly and Doris were so well looked after, pampered and spoiled. Michèle sent daily updates with photos and videos of the dogs which kept us entertained daily and we could see they were settled with their new sitter! Michèle looked after our house which was immaculate upon our return. I would highly recommend Michèle to look after your dogs and her experience and knowledge of pooches and their behaviours is immense. They both learned new games to play too! Made our holiday relaxed and enjoyable knowing our dogs were having the best holiday ever with Michèle! Thank you so much ☺️”

“Kirsteen is so good with Chase! He's high energy and very boisterous but Kirsteen had no issues matching him and giving him the best time. Normally Chase doesn't notice when sitters leave but he went to the window to watch. 10/10 - especially if your dog is high-drive!”

About: We’ve had dogs in our family since I can remember. Big Rottweilers, fluffy Alsatians, bouncy spaniels, snuggly Staffies and cheeky Jack Russell terriers. I live with my partner and I work at home full time. I’m a big walker so happy to be as active or relaxed as your doggy dictates. I work flexibly from home full time. I can offer toilet breaks as often as required. And as many or as few walks needed. Pets are welcome on the furniture here! I have an unfenced garden but I understand security is the most important element. I’ll ensure your pet is able to get outside for walks or the bathroom whenever they need. And if they don’t show signs I’ll be observant and ensure they can be outside as frequently as required.

“Lola was fantastic with my giant pup, Gadgie! She stayed with him for a few hours, took care of his feeding, and brought him out for a walk. She kept me updated the entire time, which gave me complete peace of mind. Lola is incredibly warm and lovely, and she left my house absolutely spotless—you wouldn't even know she had been there. I highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life, mostly dogs and cats, and have cared for them from puppyhood all the way to their senior years. I’m experienced with reactive and highly energetic dogs, and I always make sure they get the right care for their specific needs. Friends and family trust me to look after their pets, and I bring that same reliability to every booking. My service is fully tailored to each pet’s routine, personality and comfort, so they feel safe, understood and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home, so I can easily adapt my schedule to your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding or simply keeping them company. This flexibility lets me provide consistent, attentive care that fits your pet’s specific needs and helps them feel comfortable and secure throughout the day. I care for pets in a quiet, safe home with no other animals or children, so your pet gets my full attention. I live in a flat with a secure, fenced garden they can use for fresh air and supervised outdoor time. For dogs, I’m happy to provide long walks and multiple outings a day if needed, tailored to their age, energy level and routine. Indoors, your pet will have their own comfortable space and a calm environment. Because I work from home, I can easily adjust my schedule around them ensuring consistent, attentive care throughout the day.

About: I’ve had my own cats for the past 3 years, so truly understand how difficult it can be to leave your pet at home when you’re away. I know how important it is to have someone you trust to give them the same love, attention, playtime and cuddles they’re used to while you’re gone. I also have experience walking and caring for my friends’ dogs, and I’ve always loved spending time with animals. I’m responsible, caring and attentive, and I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, happy and well looked after. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, some playtime, lots of cuddles, or simply some company while you’re away, I’d be more than happy to help! 🐾 I’m available for pet sitting in the evenings, as well as weekday mornings before 9am. I’m also flexible and available anytime on weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and will do my best to accommodate your schedule :) I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I take the time to understand their usual routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special requirements.

“Anita took the time to make sure we got to know each other before hand. She also made friends with all the pets and got to know their anxieties, medication, routines etc. so we knew they were going to be in safe hands. Communication was excellent. We were sent regular photos and videos and even the most anxious were clearly relaxed and having fun. 100% recommend.”

“Absolutely outstanding. Fay and Ian helped me out at very short notice when I ended up without dog care while due to work and came to house sit with my 2 border collies. They accommodated my rather antisocial and long hours. Very respectful of my house, very tidy. My dogs clearly had a great time with them, they were very settled with them when I arrived home and the cuddle pictures confirmed how much they trusted Fay and Ian. They had taken notes in a meet and greet and looked after them extremely well, providing more than adequate exercise for them (I did advise there were no restrictions on exercise). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fay and Ian to anyone requiring care for the pets. I can't thank them enough for their help.”

Kirsteen is Chase's favourite person! She's so good with him, and we get great photos of him having the best time. \(^_^)/ He's always in such a good mood when he gets to spend the day with her and a lot less stressed than he is with some sitters. Especially as he can be very boisterous and a bit chaotic, it's so reassuting to know he's with someone who can not only manage him but also match his energy. 10/10 would reccomens!

Abbie was fantastic. She came for a meet & greet and really took her time to understand Beau's needs. While looking after Beau, she sent lots of photos and updates and we came back to happy, calm boy.

FAQs for House Sitting – Falkirk

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Falkirk is £35 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between £29 and £55 per night.

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 October 2026, there are 1,902 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across the city of Falkirk. About 83% typically respond to requests within 60 minutes.

Enter your address and booking dates to see which sitters are available near you. You can also message multiple sitters to improve your chances of finding the right care.

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:

  • Post & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Rubbish & recycling: Taking bins out on scheduled rubbish collection days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best time to agree on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a 'home cheat sheet' that includes your preferred Falkirk walking routes, the location of your favourite pet shop, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

House sitting is priced per night and generally includes an overnight stay. In the city of Falkirk, the price of house sitting can vary between £29 and £55 per night.

Just make sure you and your sitter agree on the actual hours they'll stay in your home before you accept the booking. Each sitter has their own routine, and some might suit your schedule better than others. Keep your messages on the Rover app for future reference.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a 'home base' service. Most sitters in Falkirk 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!

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a key safe. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalised codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in a flat, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or lift etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter must complete an identity verification process before listing their services on Rover. This process checks that the sitter’s identity matches their provided documents.

Identity verification doesn't assess a sitter’s experience or suitability for your pet. To see if a sitter is the right fit, you can review each sitter's profile for ratings, verified reviews, repeat pet owner information and care style. We also recommend arranging a Meet & Greet to discuss your pet’s needs and make sure the sitter is the right fit before booking.

For more details, visit our Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes dedicated customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement programme 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.
