“Jeanne was great and very responsive. I had full confidence my cats were being well cared for while I was away. I would definitely recommend Jeanne and hope to reschedule her services for future dates.”
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for both small and large breeds. In addition to caring for my own dog, I've also dog-sat for family, friends, and neighbors.I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I'm committed to giving pets the attention they deserve. As a full-time teacher during the school year, I have a structured and reliable schedule. Currently, I am completing home training modules, which gives me flexibility during the day for pet care visits. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship, and I will always communicate clearly about my availability and arrival times. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comportable in their familiar environment and routine. I take time to learn each pet’s needs, feeding schedule, exercise requirements, medications, and any special instructions. I prioritize safety, follow all household guidelines, keep owners updated with messages and photos, and treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.
“Tereza is very responsive, clear with communication, reliable and my dog loves to see her! She does drop in visits for my dog a few days a week and always takes her for a walk around the neighborhood during the visits. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I grew up with a Mom who loved animals and was surrounded by pets of all kinds. I have loved and cared for them and enjoyed their unique personalities. When pets are in my care they tend to settle quickly, feel safe, and stay happy while their parents are away. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and learning their personalities. And if your pet loves to snuggle, they’ll get plenty of affection with me! I want both your experience and theirs to be stress free and fun. You can rest easy knowing your pets will be well cared for, content, and loved by me while you’re gone. I’m available between 8:00 am and 8:00 pm and have a part-time schedule, which gives me the flexibility to fit around your pet’s routine and needs. I’m happy to help during the week as well as on weekends, so your pets can enjoy consistent, loving care even when your schedule changes. I care for pets right in the comfort of their own home, following your instructions and keeping their routine as consistent as possible. Services I offer include feeding and refreshing food and water, administering medications as instructed, playtime, enrichment, and companionship, walks and outdoor breaks (for dogs), litter box care for cats, tidying up after visits so your home is left just as I found it. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, calm, and well cared for and for you to return to a happy pet and a tidy home.
“Heather was great. I have a very large great dane puppy and she did a great job handling him. This was my first experience and leaves me comfortable to move forward with more care.”
“Paige is wonderful!! This was our first time leaving Tobey for an extended period of time. Paige kept us updated and sent us pictures. Highly recommend her and we will definitely rebook with her ?”
“Xi was a very loving and gentle cat sitter for my 2 kitties during a recent extended trip. She managed insulin injections for my youngest sweetheart! Always a good communicator and very respectful! I would not hesitate to call for Xi again!”
About: I grew up with cats and medium and large dogs (along with other smaller critters), regularly took care of neighborhood dogs (overnight stays and walks), and I still take care of my parent’s 95 lb dog and cat when they’re out of town. I travel occasionally for work and personal reasons so haven’t yet committed to having my own pet (yet!). I love having a dog companion on my regular walks/hikes. I have a hybrid work arrangement where I’m part time in the office in Newburyport and part time at home in Amesbury. My schedule varies based on work/personal travel schedule and can be pretty flexible depending on the day when I’m at home. I’m happy to take dogs for walks near your home as needed (as short or as long of a walk as you’d like) and also happy to stay overnight to take care of pets.
“Alyssa did an amazing job taking care of our dog and provided peace of mind while our family was on vacation. She was incredibly reliable and thoughtful when it came to our pet, and will be our go to sitter in the future!”
“Nicole is absolutely wonderful! The regular updates, adorable photos, and thoughtful gestures put our minds at ease while we were away. We returned home to three happy fur babies, thanks to the exceptional care. She was very patient with them as two were rescues and can be very reactive but they were comfortable with her by the end of the visit. We definitely recommend Nicole to anyone seeking trustworthy, loving dog care!”
About: When your dog stays with our family, they'll be treated like one of our own. I provide a calm, loving home with a large fenced yard where dogs receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. Because we don't have dogs of our own, every guest gets our full focus and lots of one-on-one care. Fully insured through Pet Sitter Associates for added peace of mind. Being a stay-at-home mom allows me to provide plenty of availability for potty breaks, walks and playtime with your pup. Located in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of walking opportunities. I know leaving your dog can be stressful. My goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away so you can enjoy your trip knowing they're in good hands. If your dog requires more boundaries to keep them safe, they can be set up in a sectioned area in the main part of the house to ensure that they are safe but still get plenty of attention.
“Jamie was terrific for Drop-In visits for our golden retriever! Responsive, timely, reliable, great communicator and updates. Best part was how comfortable our pup was with her and happy she was when we got home. Clearly well cared for and loved while we were away. Highly Recommmend!”
About: I love being active and caring for animals. I will be very attentive and provide your dog with lots of exercise, love & joy. I am available during the week and weekends for overnights/walks. I have been taking care of Friend’s Dogs and my own dog for over 20+ years. You will be assured your dog will be tired and in good care with me. I am an abstract artist and would love this opportunity to supplement my income. My schedule is very flexible and would love to put you at ease caring for your pet while away. I have lots of energy and love to spend time outside with your dog. I assure you will be in great hands when you leave your pet home with me!
About: Hi, I’m Sally! I work from home on the Massachusetts coast, so my schedule is flexible and there’s always time for a midday walk or a little extra attention. I’ve completed many Rover visits and have cared for dogs at every stage, from brand new puppies to sweet seniors, and I’m happy to adapt to whatever routine keeps your pup comfortable. As a Frenchie mom myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s hands, and I treat every dog like my own. I’m also very active, so expect a happily tired pup. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m available for midday walks and drop in visits most weekdays, and for house sitting I can often work right from your home, which means your dog gets company for most of the day instead of just mornings and evenings. Since I care for dogs in your home, I follow your rules and routines exactly, from feeding instructions to house boundaries. On walks, dogs stay securely leashed and harnessed, and I’m always careful around doors and gates. I pay close attention to body language and comfort, I ask plenty of questions up front, and I treat your home with the same care I’d want for mine.

Janine was so great with my pups. My one dog can be iffy on new people and she was so comforting to him that he absolutely loved her. She handled them both so well and was very good at communicating throughout the entire visit. Will definitely book with her again!

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 Amesbury 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 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 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 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 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.
