“Nicole was terrific! She did a great job getting our older & very shy cat to take her medicine and overall took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. It was great to know that they were in such good hands and we would definitely ask Nicole to sit for us again.”
About: Hi there! My name is Liz and I’ve been an avid animal lover since I could understand the happiness and warmth animals can bring into your life. I have always watched friends and families dogs and cats, and decided to spread my network on Rover to continue to bring care and love to animals when their humans are away or at work. I have two cats and a dog of my own that I love dearly! Looking forward to working with you and your fur baby. 🙂🐾 I work a hybrid position so I am often available for folks in the area to come say hi to your babies! I am not currently available for boarding. I am happy to provide a safe environment for your babies in your home. Weather it’s just stopping in to say hi and play a little bit, or go for a good walk, I’m your girl!
“Michaela was amazing! Came to check on my cat once a day while I was on vacation. Qas very responsive and took on the task with pretty short notice. My cat can be kind of grumpy with strangers, but seemed to really like Michaela! Very communicative and responsive.”
About: I am no stranger to the animal world. I have been active in the horse world since five years old. I have over fifteen years of hands on experience with animals of all shapes and sizes; Dogs, cats, horses, livestock, chickens and other various farm animals. I have experience training dogs and a love for working with older rescues! Taking care of the four dogs, horses, and chickens at home requires us to be up by 7 in the morning. My weekend work schedule can be quite busy during the summer seasons, and my weekly schedule tends to be constant yet unpredictable. Please feel free to ask about the scheduling details, as I am very flexible. We have spacious runs, 30 to 60 feet long, and across the road, there are hundreds of acres of trails for our animals to explore. Our mission is to keep them engaged and active, as their world is shaped by what we provide. With plenty of stimulation, we can effectively manage behavior and craft positive relationships.
About: I am a pet lover with multiple years of experience under my belt! I regularly dog sit for three families and have helped others. My experience includes working with multiple pets at a time, dispensing medication, and working with elderly dogs. I have also cared for families with cats - and have two orange tabbies of my own! I am happy to come over at your convenience! I work an 8-5 job during the M-F week. I am available before work, after, and weekends. Hoping to help when you most need it! I will care for your pets in the comfort of your own home- where they are most comfortable! I can travel to where ever you may be.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young, but never got the opportunity to own one myself. I do have experience with dogs, including aggressive ones, anxious ones, seniors, and puppies. I’ve been trained on animal behavior and know how to correct inappropriate behavior. I worked full time at a pet board and daycare so I promise I understand dogs! I’m currently out of work due to some personal matters, but I am more than physically fit to take care of animals. I am pregnant and due in January, but that doesn’t stop me from being active! I currently do not offer pet care in my own home, but I do offer in-home pet care. Depending on your pet’s personality and their personal requirements I can pill pop medication, but I don’t do injectables. I can also bathe them if that is something you’re interested in. I do ask that if you have a reactive dog that you provide your own materials, whether it be a certain leash, collar, and/or muzzle while on a walk or during baths. Anything to make your pet more comfortable while in my care.
About: Pet sitter & walker in both Dracut & Haverhill, MA areas Hi, my name is Kelsey, a pet owner of more than 15+ years of 6 animals, both cats and dogs. I have experience with dog walking, sitting, feeding, baths, and spending some time just cuddling! I have a deep unconditional love for animals, and want to provide assistance in any way that I can. I offer sitting, walking, check-in visits & overnight stays. I work full time as an administrative coordinator with flexibility in my schedule to honor pet care. I have the ability to take extra days off, should you require additional hours of care for your fur babies! I am currently looking to make pet walking, visits and sitting a full time job to take up more of my schedule! I have a fenced in yard where both my dogs are safe at home. One of my dogs has a crate at home that she goes into when she wants to be alone or feel safe, as it is not punishment for her! I am happy to abide by any rules you set for your animals, whether that is crate-training, not sleeping on the bed, etc., as well as providing food, water and safety for your animals during my visits.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities! Since joining Rover, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for so many wonderful dogs, including several I’ve been lucky enough to care for consistently over the past five years. Building lasting relationships with these pups and their families has been one of the most rewarding parts of being a sitter! My experience ranges from energetic puppies to sweet seniors requiring extra patience and specialized care. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, bathing, administering supplements/medications, preparing specialized meals, and accommodating unique dietary needs and routines. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for my own dog, Murphy, throughout his battle with cancer. His care involved preparing specialized meals, administering daily supplements, and bringing him to regular vet appointments and to his holistic vet for his acupuncture! That experience gave me an even deeper appreciation for the patience, compassion, and individualized attention our furry family members deserve. I truly believe dogs are family, and I treat every pup in my care as if they were my own. Whether we’re enjoying walks, spending time outdoors, or simply relaxing with plenty of cuddles, my priority is making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, Rover has allowed me to continue doing something I absolutely love. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pup is in caring, experienced, and dependable hands! ❤️🐾 I currently work from home so I can be extremely flexible with my schedule! I'm also available on weekends, overnights, and longer overnight stays if needed! When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I create a warm, welcoming environment and follow each pet’s routine closely to minimize any stress. This includes feeding them on schedule, ensuring they get plenty of exercise, and giving them lots of love and attention! I make sure their space is clean and cozy, and I keep their toys and bedding fresh. For walks or playtime, I ensure they’re getting the right amount of activity based on their needs, whether that’s a long hike, a fun fetch session, or some relaxing cuddle time. I also monitor their health, providing any special care like administering medications, supplements, or preparing special meals if needed. It’s all about making them feel safe, happy, and loved!
“Gracie is a true animal lover and it shows upon meeting her. I was nervous to try out Rover for the first time for my senior cat. Meeting Gracie calmed all my nerves - it was so clear she loves and respects all animals. She was prompt on each visit, took care of all my cat’s needs, and even brought him toys. I will surely check to see if Gracie is available anytime I need to be out of town for care of my boy.”
“Sasha is Fantastic! She’s very communicative, is so good with our pup, and we enjoy having her come over weekly! This is my first time with a pet sitter and she made it so easy and we felt comfortable almost immediately. 10/10!”
About: I worked as a dog walker for a year where I walked 6 dogs at a time usually walking around 36 dogs per day. I would also brush out feed and give the dogs water and any meds they may need for the day. Lastly I grew up with dogs my entire life so I know how to care for them very well I an currently babysitting and looking to walk dogs in my free days as a summer job. I am available most days and am happy to do any length of walk or visit needed I have a fenced in large yard and 2 very friendly dogs so if I ever needed to bring your dog to my house it would be completely safe
About: Unable to have pets of my own, I love taking care of others! I love cat sitting - although I am a dog lover from the start. I love learning each pet’s distinct personality, the ways they play, nonverbal messaging and patterns. I am comfortable giving medications - having had a cat that lived well into her 20s, as well as kitten care. I love dogs, especially walks, play time and petting! I am a vetted and trusted house sitter in Portsmouth. For cats, I typically do a morning feed and play time, lunch time check in for play, brushing or just presence and an evening hang out - food, litter box, play time and cuddle time. When I have time off I like to spend it with the animals. I can come to you and will treat your home better than my own - more like I am looking for a five-star airbnb review. I am quiet and mostly want to spend time with your pet and read.

“Henry is so amazing! My dog is fearful and tends to growl and look scary and he was confident, calm, and able to help get my dog to go outside. I appreciate him jumping in in short notice to take care of my two dogs. He did a great job. I plan to use him anytime in the future that I need a dog sitter.”

About: Whether it’s long walks, playtime, feeding, or just snuggles on the couch, I treat every pet like part of my family. I’ve cared for puppies full of energy as well as older pets who need a little extra patience, so I’m comfortable handling animals of all ages. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel relaxed and confident while you’re away, knowing they’re safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently taking classes online this semester, which gives me a very flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate ample time to care for pets, go on walks, play, and ensure they feel loved and comfortable throughout the day I have always been trusted by neighbors and friends to care for their pets, responsibly following all instructions, ensuring each animal’s needs are met and they feel safe, happy, and loved while under my care

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Amesbury
We are so glad we found Diana! She took excellent care of our 2 year old VERY energetic lab. She is newly adopted so we were very nervous leaving her overnight for the first time. Diana was great meeting with us beforehand to discuss our dogs schedule and any special requests. She sent many updates and pictures which helped us feel at ease. She gave our dog plenty of playtime and exercise so that our absence wasn’t distressing to our pup and she was very flexible with our changing schedule. We would absolutely book with Diana again!!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Amesbury is $30 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $42 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.

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

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 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.
