About: I'm super flexible, and welcome all sizes and ages like they are my own! For all my life I have loved animals and I have experience with all types of animals, but dogs are my soft spot:) I have a lot of knowledge (and have done years of research) on dog behavior and cues, handling, etc! I like to prioritize pet sitting! Because of that, I am free 6 days out of the week to do drop ins or walks for your fur baby: Monday✅, Tuesday✅, Wednesday✅, Thursday✅, Friday✅ I have a nice big fenced yard! And a friendly, sweet, & small Yorkie-Poodle mix dog, she's 8 years old and gets along very well with dogs and cats (she is spayed!). I have my license and own car, so I'll even take your furry friend to the dog park or on nature trails with me! (Unless told not to)
“Amanda was so amazing. She really cared about our puppy and even went above and beyond carrying our puppy up the stairs since she had just gotten spayed. Lily really loved Amanda!!!!!!!”
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and truly love caring for animals of all personalities and needs. I currently have two hound mixes and live a very active, pet-focused lifestyle. I have hands-on experience with: • Dogs with anxiety and behavioral needs (including training support) • Senior and special-needs dogs, including hip dysplasia • Administering medications multiple times a day I understand that every pet is different, and I’m very patient, attentive, and focused on making them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs, and I can also accommodate crating if needed (I have large crates available). Availability: I work full-time during the day, but I’m typically available after 6 PM on workdays. I also have rotating weekdays and weekends off, which allows for more flexible care—just message me and I’m happy to coordinate! I treat every pet like they’re my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always have peace of mind. I currently work full time day shift. I will generally be available after 6PM but I have random weekdays and wekends off to care for your pets! I have a fenced in yard, and two dog friendly dogs. I have experience with high anxiety and handicap dogs that need medication several times a day. I have two large crates as my dogs are over 50 pounds if that is something that is needed.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages. From energetic puppies needing structure to senior pets requiring patience and gentle attention, I tailor my care to each animal’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or just playtime, I aim to make every pet feel safe, loved, and at home. What sets me apart is my calm, intuitive approach and attention to detail. I treat every pet like they’re my own, respecting their routines, quirks, and comfort zones. I also send frequent photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m available for walks, drop ins, or sitting on the weekends. My priority is for your pet to get the attention and companionship they deserve. Your dogs safety and comfort come first. I follow each pet’s routine closely, from feeding schedules to walk times, to help them feel secure and relaxed. I always do a safety check of the space, keep hazardous items out of reach, and make sure pets are never left unsupervised outside. In your home, I treat your space with respect and aim to leave it just as I found it. I also provide regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Rachel took great care of my cat Jack during some drop in visits. She was sure to send pictures, communicate well, and spend time playing and cuddling with him. She was great!”
About: From dogs to cats (and even a bearded dragon), I've done it all. I understand how nerve racking it can be to leave your animal with someone you barely know so I'll do the following to make sure you can feel confident your pets are being well taken care of while you're away: - Multiple updates throughout the day confirming eating and bathroom habits - Pictures of the activities we've been up to - A detailed daily plan developed to make sure we never miss a beat with their normal routine Reach out so we can develop a plan that meets your needs! Im free for walks after work during week days which is typically around 5 PM (depending if I'm working from home or on-site). On Thursday and Friday, I have midday availability depending on travel distance - reach out and we can talk through details! I'm much more free on weekends so with notice I can make just about anything work! As an owner of a very large (German Shepard/Great Pyr mix) dog, I'm very familiar with the worries of a pet parent. I will treat your animal like my own and can handle even the largest of them (including pullers and reactive dogs).
About: I have dog sat many times. I have gone as short as 1 day to a full week. I love all animals and would love to help out! I’m currently at home from college this summer. I have a part time job. I am very flexible and I can pretty much do any times. I will take very good care of you’re home as well as you’re pet. I can put your dog In a crate if needed. I will always be there for them
About: My name is Corrie and I love animals, I have 2 cats, 2 dogs and 2 kids. They mean so much to me. I have a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I love going for walks with my dogs. I have a big yard that's 2.5 acres and we roam around the whole thing. Some of it's long grass so I will check for ticks. I cut or file my own dogs nails as well and can offer that if needed depending how well the dog or cat does. I work full time but work from home some days of the week, Wednesdays and Fridays. We are available in evenings and weekends. Especially in the winter. We have a large yard. Most of the time we let the dogs out on a 50 foot leash for quick potty breaks. Rocky is allowed to roam a little. Otherwise we walk the dogs around the yard or neighborhood. Have a large crate when needed.
About: I’m a K9 trainer with six years of experience, including three years working professionally. I work with dogs every day and am Canine and Feline CPR certified. I also own an Australian Shepherd who excels in agility, games, and service dog tasks. Training and caring for dogs isn’t just a job for me, it’s my career and my passion, and I love being able to share that with others. I work full time doing K9 training and taking care of boarding dogs, but I still make time throughout the day to look after additional pets. My schedule is flexible, and I even have the option to bring dogs with me to work, giving them extra attention and enrichment. I make sure my own dog’s needs are met every day with activities that keep him happy and fulfilled, and I bring that same level of care to every client’s pet. I take the time to ensure each dog is comfortable, well cared for, and has their unique needs met. I truly enjoy meeting new dogs and learning their personalities and quirks, it’s one of the best parts of what I do.
About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t caring for pets! I currently have 2 dogs and 1 cat of my own. I have also cared for dogs, cats, and even exotic pets for family and friends away on long trips since I was around 10 years old. I love all animals (even bugs🩷) and I can guarantee I’ll care for your pet like my own! I am a college student home for the summer, so my calendar is free! I keep my schedule updated and I accept bookings almost anytime. I’m flexible! Whatever your pet is used to, I can match. In my own home, I ensure the kitty has food, water, and clean litter box available at all times. We play for 15 minutes a day at minimum, but he’s a very hyper cat so he runs around on his own half the time. For my dogs, I let them outside whenever they ask to be let outside haha. If your dog has a schedule, I’ll follow it. I feed them twice a day and ensure they have water at all times. I play with one of my dogs for about 30 minutes each day, the other one doesn’t like to play (She’s a bit strange…). Whatever your pet needs, I can do! I will do my best to keep their routine as unchanged as possible while you’re away.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Andover
We found Abigail after a sitter last min canceled on us. She was quick to respond and very easy to communicate with. I felt very comfortable leaving my young pup with her. She asked a lot of questions and made sure to have all the info that would help her provide the best care for her. I checked in on Charlie and had a reply within minutes. Lastly, Abigail got some adorable and funny pictures of Charlie. I would recommend her for any dog needs. I would love to have her back in the future!
My animals absolutely adore Tahni. Tahni usually brings her delightful, dog and cat loving young daughter to her visits. She is a little super star and helps her mom with nail trims and feeding my dogs and cats. I love the pictures they send and the special attention they give my beloved pets. I highly recommend Tahni and her sweet family.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Andover stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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 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!
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.

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 .

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

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.
