Paige did a fantastic job watching our two kittens for two weeks while we were out of the country. She gave daily updates with photos and was quick to communicate when she found a potential issue with the automatic feeders. Both of our kittens quickly warmed up to her and we will absolutely use her services again in the future! :)

Teresa was great and we felt so comfortable leaving out cats in her care! Tereza clearly has a love for cats and all pets. She was on time, played, fed, and cleaned up after them. We will be rebooking in the future for sure!

About: I currently work as a supervisor at a doggy daycare and have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and needs. I also have personal experience caring for special needs and mobility-impaired dogs, including medication administration and bladder expression. Animals are truly my passion, and I treat every pet like family. I work mornings and spend a lot of time caring for my own rescue babies, so I currently offer pet care visits between 3 PM–9 PM to ensure every animal gets my full attention and care. I know how important trust is when it comes to someone caring for your pets, because my own babies are my entire world too. I believe building a bond with each pet is just as important as meeting their physical needs, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pets with patience, attention, and kindness while keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible.

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: Growing up in a dog loving household, I've been an animal lover my whole life and my 2 kids (9yrs and 6yrs) have inherited the same love for animals. We don't have any dogs of our own, so we have a lot of love and attention to give your fur baby! 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. When your dog comes to stay with us, they immediately become a part of the family! Our home is dog-friendly so they are given free reign of the house if that is what they are used to. 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.

We just moved here last week and were gone over Christmas so we had to find someone reliable to take care of our cat, Pancakes, on very short notice. Laney was extremely reliable, communicative, and helped relieve an area of stress for us over this holiday season. We will definitely continue to use her for cat care and also to take care of our pup in the future.

About: Michael (or Briar as they prefer to be called) have had cats and dogs (of all shapes and sizes) for most of their life, raising many from kittens or puppies to well into their twilight years as a part of their family. This has allowed Briar have experience with all manner of friend, whether they be bundles of energy, trembling balls of anxious fluff, or friends that need way more belly rubs than a hand can give. Regardless your pet, they will always be showered with love and gentle touch when taken care of by Briar! I'm currently working part time, so I am definitely able to stop in, do a check up, give some attention, belly rubs, and love, and be on my way! All Briar wishes for our furry friend(s) is their safety and comfortability, especially when you're away! I want to keep an environment that is familiar and nonintrusive as possible, allowing your ease of mind to match theirs. Quick hello and some extra love will always be given

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!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Amesbury

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Amesbury on Rover is $38.85 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 5,800 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Amesbury. 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 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Amesbury. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
