“Beatriz did a great job watching my dog while I was away for a short trip. She gathered lots of information from me beforehand, provided just the right amount of photos and updates, and gave my dog a lot of attention. I found her to be motivated, responsible, focused, and tidy. I will definitely request her for future trips.”
“Kadence was wonderful at looking after my dog. She was patient during his "warm up" phase but got him to settle down and settle in. Unfortunately he needed at trip to the emergency vet and Kadence handled it calmly and competently. We had good communication throughout my vacation and I returned home to a happy dog and clean house.”
About: We are a family of four! We have my kids 50 percent of the time- they are 8 and 6! We have a fenced in yard that the animals can run in! I work from home so I’m home majority of the day- I leave for some meetings randomly but not for too long. We are members at a great dog park in NH that we take our dogs to often especially with nicer weather! We have two dogs- A 3 year old Bernadoodle and a 2 year old long haired chihuahua. Both very friendly with other animals! We also have a 10 month Mancoon Cat who loves playing with the dogs and acts like a dog herself! We have been caring for animals for a long time and we welcome all types of animals into our loving family! We give our dogs a lot of attention and we will do the same with yours! I work from home and my job is very flexible. I will be home majority of the time and will be able to give a lot of attention and love! I have a full fenced in yard! I have a screened in porch also that provides some outside time when not in the yard! It’s a very safe area!
“Allison was truly a blessing and if I ever need this service again, I will absolutely contact her! This was my first time ever leaving for multiple days and our planned sitter (a friend of ours) fell through shortly before our trip. Allison gave us the peace of mind that our dog's would be taken care of. She stayed with them for more time than I had even dared hope for and sent us regular updates. She was transparent, responsible, respectful and kind. Upon our return it was obvious that our dogs missed us but it was also obvious that they had been well cared for and treated with nothing but love and kindness. I can't possibly be even more thankful than I am.”
“Was very happy with Heather. My dog loved her. I'll definitely be using her again in the future. She was awesome. I was able to relax on my weekend getaway and not have to worry a my dog.”
About: Hi! My name is Bella, and I’m a dedicated animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats for family members, friends, and neighbors. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I work during the day, typically for about eight hours, but outside of work I am available to provide plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration (if needed), and lots of affection. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, belly rubs, play sessions, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to accommodate their routine. I know how important it is to trust someone with a beloved pet, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work during the day, typically from about 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, but outside of those hours I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Before and after work, I can provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, medication administration if needed, and lots of love and attention. On weekends and days off, I have even more flexibility to spend quality time with your pets and ensure they stay happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m also more than happy to help with small household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail or packages, and keeping an eye on your home so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions so they can feel as relaxed as possible while you’re away. Whether caring for pets in your home or during visits, I provide attentive supervision, plenty of affection, regular exercise, and consistent care. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and lots of love.
“Erin took care of our dogs at the last minute after our dog sitter canceled on us. She came to visit and meet the dogs. She sent pics of the dogs daily. She took great care of our pups and even bought them a gift. How sweet! We would highly recommend her to stay with your dogs.”
“Andrea watched our dog and cat for a week and we were so happy with her care for them! She provided regular updates each day and we knew our pets were getting lots of attention and love. She went above and beyond treating them like her own! We will be booking with Andrea again!”
“Ann Marie did a great job caring for my older French Bulldog while I was away on a sort trip. She was very easy to work with, responded promptly, kept me informed throughout her stay, and had lots of patience letting my dog get to know her and become friends. I will definitely consider her for future bookings.”

“Thank you Mikayla for taking care of our little guy! Tucker is a special little Yorkie with health concerns requiring constant monitoring. Mikayla stepped up and delivered reliable excellent care. Oral medication and special dietary needs were taken care of. She communicated with us and sent pics of our guy which was a relief. We could relax and have peace of mind. Bonus, she left the house clean and tidy! We already have our next trip booked! Thank you again!”
“Jamie took great care of our dog. She was communicative and was able to help us out last minute. Callie seemed to have a great time and felt very comfortable with Jamie. We will definitely rebook!”
About: With over 16 years of personal experience as a dedicated Maltese dog owner, I understand that pets are more than just animals-they are cherished family members. I know firsthand the specific care, patience, and attention to detail that pets require to feel safe and happy. I'm dependable, taking my responsibilities seriously and ensure your pet's routine/requirements are met! Taking the summer off from working in the school system, looking to pet sit/walk and do whatever I can to help families in need no matter what! I have lots of experience in coming over to pet sit/walk animals, making sure your furry companion feels safe, and well taken care of, and needs are met!
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbor’s cats since I was young, I’ve dog sat for friends, family, and friends of the family. I’ve taken care of 4 rambunctious dogs at once so I can handle the commotion. I am back in school so I can take care of pets whenever I’m not in class. Though I will need time to study and do homework outside of class I still will have plenty of time to take care of your pets. I do whatever the owner wants me to do to take care of their pets. I normally walk them once a day, feed them, let them out a couple times, and give them plenty of attention.
“Odris was helpful, communicative and wonderful overall. We needed her for a very extended period and she stayed with our pup the whole time. She was kind and our dog was clearly very comfortable with her!”
“Watanya is very caring and communicative. She sent us pictures every day and was in constant contact. We felt that both our pets were in perfect hands. She is diligent and trustworthy. We will definitely think of her for any other vacations we may take.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Atkinson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Atkinson on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,763 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Atkinson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Atkinson 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 Atkinson 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 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!
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

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.
