About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. We've plenty of time to play with your pups! It is important for us to know whether your pet gets along with other dogs and is friendly with kids. We would also want to know if your pet has a tendency to dig or chew on furniture or shoes so we can make the necessary accomodations. Also it’s important to know if your pet has any preexisting medical conditions and/or requires any medication or supplements to be administered We have a fenced in front and backyard. However, dogs are allowed both inside and outside our home. We also believe in taking dogs on multiple walks a day to give them the exercise they need.
“This is the second time we had Olga to sit Capone and was another great experience. We went to Miami for dinner and not once was concerned about him. The updates kept coming to my phone. She took him to our Dog park. Capone lives her and so do we. If she’s available and you want your dog safe and happy hire her and you won’t regret it”

From playful puppies to senior dogs, I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet. Whether it’s keeping up with high-energy pups or offering gentle support to older dogs, I ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! My work is fully remote, so I have more than enough time to properly care for and be with your furry friends.

I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment for pets, whether in my home or my client’s. I currently have no permanent pets due to my travel schedule, which is why I’m so excited to care for pets while I’m home.

With stunning views of a waterfront marina walkway, pets can enjoy peaceful walks and fresh air. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure every pet feels happy, secure, and well cared for!
“Megan and Trevor went above and beyond when caring for our 14 yo Shorkie Teddy! This was our first time using Rover and someone outside of family. I couldn’t have felt more comfortable on vacation knowing he was receiving the best care. They sent frequent updates and pictures that melted my heart. I highly recommend them and will no doubt use them again.”

“Brenda did a wonderful job taking care of our pets while we were away. She showed so much love, patience, and genuine care for them. We felt very comfortable knowing they were in such good hands and would absolutely recommend her.”

About: For as long as I can remember, I have been around dogs and cats. Whether they are my own or friends', I have always been an animal lover. I have had numerous opportunities to take care of furry friends and love to do so, especially as I am currently a traveling graduate student. Over the years, my experience has ranged from daily feedings and active walks to creating a calm, safe environment for pets while their owners are away. From one animal lover to another, I value bringing a high level of responsibility, clear communication, and detail-oriented care to pet sitting. I deeply respect every animal's unique routine and make it a priority to treat your pets like my own, ensuring they receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise.

“Vasil is an absolute dream sitter. He and my cat, Kasha, clicked instantly at the meet and greet, and after his overnight stay she’s completely smitten. He gave her so much attention and affection, and he was incredibly meticulous about following all of her care instructions as well as the apartment rules. I came home to a spotless space and a very happy cat. He’s definitely earned my trust. Honestly, I’m tempted to book drop-ins even when I don’t need them just so Kasha can have more time with her new bestie.”

“Luis was very easy to work with. He came to visit our dog beforehand. Teddy got lots of walks and lots of love. We came back to a happy dog and a clean house. Cannot recommend enough!!! Thank you!”

“Izabella was AMAZING! WE BOOKED HER LAST MINUTE TO STAY WITH OUR TWO SMALL DOGS TO KEEP THEM COMPANY ALL DAY WHILE WE WERE OUT EXPLORING AND SHE COULDN’T HAVE TAKEN BETTER CARE OF THEM! Two walks, lots of pictures and videos of them playing together kept my mind at ease when they were with someone unfamiliar. They quickly fell in love with her! I’d pay her double for her service if we are ever back in the area. Thank you again so much, Izabella!”

About: I’m a very detail-oriented and attentive dog sitter who genuinely enjoys getting to know each dog and understanding what makes them unique. I have five years of dog-sitting experience, including caring for senior dogs who need extra attention and assistance with medication, physical therapy, and companionship. I believe great care goes beyond simply meeting a dog’s basic needs; it means being patient, recognizing their body language, respecting their temperament, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I take pride in providing thoughtful, individualized care and making every dog feel at ease while their owners are away. I make it a priority to plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care.

I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions, respect their space and household routines, and treat their home with the same care I would my own. I also believe communication is an important part of being a reliable sitter, so I make a point of keeping owners updated on their pets through messages, photos, and updates throughout the visit. Above all, I want owners to feel confident knowing their pets and home are in responsible and caring hands.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Andover
Rhokia was a wonderful dog sitter who took amazing care of my very attached Cavalier, Jax, while I was away on a work trip. Each day, she sent detailed updates about their walks and excursions, along with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even brought him toys! She made sure he was well-fed, gave him treats and plenty of affection, and most importantly, truly cared for and loved him while I was away. She was also a respectful guest in my home and left everything just as she found it—clean and organized. I can’t say enough great things about Rhokia and the exceptional care she provides. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.

Fiona was amazing with our fur babies. We went on an extended trip for our wedding and honeymoon. Fiona sent us video and picture updates that made us feel as ease during our travels. My bulldog even got himself a girlfriend, played so well with Luna. Fiona went above and beyond I would definitely love for her to watch our babies again.

We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care our 2 dogs received! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brianna stayed in our home and cared for our fur babies while we were out of town for 4 days. She came for a meet-and-greet prior to our trip, and from the moment we met, we (and the pups) felt completely at ease. She treated our pups like family—lots of playtime & cuddles, —and kept our home spotless and peaceful. The updates and photos she sent each day were such a comfort and let us see just how relaxed and happy our dogs were. We were able to enjoy our trip thanks to the peace of mind that our dogs were in her loving and capable hands. We are booking with her again to stay during an upcoming trip! We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind-hearted, and reliable sitter. 💕🐾

The average cost of House Sitting in Andover is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $36 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Andover 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 Andover 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 Andover 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 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.
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.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
