About: Hello & welcome to my profile! I have been blessed by growing up around animals my entire life! My older brother has had dogs as small as a Poodle/Chihuahua mix (Ari) and as large as a Newfoundland (Armand - which I was able to help leash train)! My brother has relied on me multiple times to take care of them, and I do so lovingly! In Ari’s later years, he trusted me to give him his medication, special diet food, and assist him walk around. Additionally, I grew up around cats for as long as I can remember and currently have two of my very own. Not only cats & dogs, but bunnies, gerbils, and guinea pigs are all animals I have taken care of under my own roof! I know that each pet has their own personality and therefore needs specialized care. I know how much I think about my own when I am away from them, and I would be honored to lovingly take care of them so you don’t have to stress it! I currently work full time M-F, but am consistently done with work by 3:00/4:00 pm. This gives me plenty of time to stop by and care for your animals during the week part time, or full time on the weekends! Within my own home, I make sure to be proactive with making sure my cats have fresh water and food in their bowls at consistent times. I do not currently own any pet supplies for a dog and I live in a one bedroom apartment with limited space. I am happy to house smaller animals when need be and take care of all other pets within their own furever home!
About: I have had pets my entire life and could never live without them. I have three dogs and three cats and would love the opportunity to take care of your babies the way you wish you could while you are away. My schedule is extremely flexible and I would love to further discuss together what works best for you and your fur babies needs sometime soon. I visit your home and take care of your pets in the environment that they know and are most comfortable. I will also do neighborhood walks, dog parks, and vet visits depending on arrangements.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. From growing up with dogs, to working with them, they've always been there. I'm a formally trained groomer who has worked in various places around New England. My specially was working with puppies and dogs with anxiety. Both of those need extra patience and time to keep them safe, comfortable, and to make it the best experience possible. I've also worked for a doggy daycare, have done at home walks, and have a number of years experience with housesitting dogs of all ages. I'm a stay at home mom with two young kids, one in school, one will be going in the fall. We spend plenty of time in our yard, getting fresh air and sun. I have a large yard, unfenced, and a good sized home with plenty of space. There are stairs in the front to get upstairs, but no stairs by the backdoor, making it easy for dogs with mobility issues to come inside.
“This was my first time getting a pet sitter and I couldn’t be happier! My cat is getting old and Stephanie did as great job at not only keeping her company and making sure she was happy, but also keeping me informed on how she was doing. Loved the pictures! I will definitely use her again.”
“Heather was wonderful with my cat. We've only lived here for 3 weeks,so she's a bit nervous about people coming in and out of the house. Heather was calm with Teaghan. I got photos and even a follow up after I got home to see if Teaghan ate her food!”
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience with both puppies and senior pets, and I adjust my care to match their energy levels, medical needs, and routines. I'm available for boarding on the weekends and any night after 4 pm. There will always be a trusted adult at home to keep your furry friend happy and cared for! I have a fenced in yard and a border collie living at home. He is extremely friendly and his best friend is my brother's teacup Yorkie, so he gets along with dogs of all shapes, sizes and temperaments!
“Stephanie did an excellent job dropping in to take care of our cat! Pepper is elderly and very timid but warmed up quickly. Stephanie went above and beyond and even brought in some big packages that were delivered while we were gone. She was great at sending pictures and updating us on how Pepper was doing while we were out of town for a week. We would definitely trust Stephanie to take care of Pepper next time we are away!”
“Liz is great, she sends great pictures and videos and is very informative with the updates. She gives the cats attention and lots of pets. I would definitely hire her again. Thank you so much Liz ❤️”
“Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Robyn was very friendly and communicative throughout her drop-in visits to check on our cats. We received daily pics and updates — we will definitely have her back and we highly recommend Robyn!”
“Annie has been amazing! She responded immediately to my request and took care of our dogs even on short notice. I will definitely continue to use her services and recommend her to my family and friends. Bob G”
About: My name is Kathryn and I go by Katie, I’m 20 years old I’ll be 21 in July. I live in Derry NH and I can’t wait to help out families who need it! Leaving your fur baby at home can be stressful. Trust me, I love mine so much. But I’m here to make sure there is nothing to stress over and that they are well taken care of. Over the years I’ve cared for many dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities and truly enjoy making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I used to groom dogs, clip nails, walk dogs for as long as needed, and feed them daily or multiple times a day whatever is needed. Along with any medications they need as well. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets. I can also send update pictures or videos to my clients and make sure they know I’m doing exactly what they asked for! Im a very active person who loves working out so when im not at Pilates or doing school work im free, but im very able to manage my time. Im free all the time this summer may-august mornings and evenings. So just give me a heads up! And I’ll be free on weekends during the months after this summer. My top priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I live in a home away from busy roads, and pets will always be supervised in a safe environment. During walks, I always keep dogs on a leash, clean up after them, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I’ll also follow any specific routines or instructions to make sure your pet feels right at home.
About: I’m an experienced dog owner and longtime animal lover! I have hands-on experience fostering puppies, so I’m comfortable with everything from energetic playtime and basic training to keeping a close eye on routines, feeding, and potty breaks. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I’m happy to accommodate different personalities, energy levels, and routines to make our time together as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Pet care is a very important part of my daily routine, and I always make it a top priority. I currently have a dog and a rescue cat, so I understand the time, attention, and consistency pets need throughout the day. I’m reliable with scheduling and communication, and I’ll make sure your pet receives the care and attention they need while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their home with the same care and respect I would my own. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone with both your pets and your home, so I prioritize safety, following your instructions, and clear communication throughout the entire stay. I’ll keep you updated and make sure your pet’s routine is maintained as closely as possible.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Atkinson 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 Atkinson 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 .

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 Atkinson 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.
