About: We've always had a strong love for dogs! Growing up in a household with dogs, sitting for friends/families dogs, and now having two dogs of our own, we feel confident that your pup will be well taken care of! Unfortunately, both of our dogs have a chronic medical condition requiring very strict food and medication administration. Therefore, we are extremely mindful of dogs who may have special needs, diet restrictions, allergies, medication administration, separation anxiety, etc. We utilize a positive reinforcement approach to training/caring for our dogs and other dogs! Working from home provides us the flexibility to give your pup the love and attention they need! They will never be left alone when boarding with us regardless if it is a weekday/weekend. We understand being away from home can be stressful and want to be there every step of the way! We can accommodate 1 dog per day/night and have a large fenced in backyard for plenty of space for your pups to run around! The fence is 6ft+ and very secure. We also have two very friendly dogs who love nothing more than to play and cuddle on the couch! We only allow dogs from the same home at one time so you can be rest assured your dog will get the attention, love, and safety they need. We will treat your pup like they are our own and understand the anxiety of being away from your furry friend!
About: Hi! I’m Katie, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s a long walk, or playtime, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust, so I make sure to provide updates, photos, and plenty of love while you're away. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel happy and safe. I’d love to meet your furry friend and help care for them however I can! I just graduated college a few weeks ago. I currently have full availability this summer, because my job does not start until the fall. Any time will work for me. I make sure my dog is well fed, hydrated, and goes out to exercise. We go on morning walks everyday and make sure they are healthy. I love to go in the yard to throw a frisbee.
“Skylar was absolutely incredible with our four dogs! She was available at the last minute for a family emergency. In the process, she updated me and shared some photos of some very happy babies. Our dogs warmed up to her very quickly! She was also very understanding when we came home sooner than expected. We will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you, Skylar for loving them as much as we do :)”
“Tori was a huge help with watching our two cats for the week. She was punctual and provided great feedback on how the cats were doing. We’ll be using Tori for our future trips. Thank you, Tori!”
About: I can’t remember a time when animals were not a part of my life. From rabbits and birds, hamsters and gerbils to dogs and cats. Currently I have three older rescue cats who are huge snugglers During the school year I’m available before and after school as well as weekends and holidays. Summers are wide open to love new pet friends I am able to drop in and make sure food, walks and clean up Is done before school. After school I can spend time with longer wonder walks, playtime, and snuggles. Weekends are available as needed

As a dedicated and insured dog walker, I’m here to make sure your pup gets the care, exercise, and attention they need at any hour.

About: I have been caring for pets since a child. I have pets of my own! Dogs are my favorite :) (I love cats too)! I have 2 dogs, a bird, a snake, and a turtle!(I also used to have a bearded dragon). This job is extremely rewarding, and will make my day every day. I love getting to see everyone’s pets, and their personalities. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!! I do walking, drop in visits, and house sitting. Unfortunately due to my own pets at home, I can not accept pets into my house for care :( I also do cat care, and grooming I also offer nail trims/grinding. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I also can help take care of small animals and reptiles as well. I attend Southern New Hampshire University August-April. I am available weekends During the week my availability differs, message me with your needs and we can make it work! I require a meet and greet for all new clients! I will offer a same day same service greet. If I feel uncomfortable, or that me and your pet will not be a good match, I will let you know before services continue. This is extremely important for the animals safety, my safety, and even the owner. This is also a great time to show me where your pets belongings are, or to tell me any important information about your pet I should know.
About: I have been dog sitting for friends for the 5 years. I no longer have my dog so I enjoy watching others. I work remotely so I can stay in your home if that is what is required I work from home, my schedule is Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 4:30 pm. I have breaks and lunch, so I would be available with them all day I would be able to work from your home, so I would be able to take them out or let them out whenever needed. Feed them at their scheduled time.
“Amanda was fantastic! She eased the nerves of leaving our cats for a few nights and was super communicative and sent many updates and pictures. Would definitely Book her again!”
“Tegan has walked my dog for the last couple months while I'm at work and she has been so wonderful! She is on time and communicated well. I have a high energy husky and Tegan has done such a great job with her. I couldn't recommend her more!”
“Allison watched our cat and dog with daily visits while we were away. Our dog is a large German Shepard that can be a bit of a challenge to handle, but Allison quickly put him at ease and established trust with our dog. She also took excellent care of our cat, giving him the type of quality attention that he loves. What stood out to me was how Allison kept a watchful eye on everything during her visits. She pointed out an issue with our rather expensive fish tank and notified me. I'm sure we would have lost most of our fish and coral if she had not taken the initiative to help out. In addition to giving us daily updates and photos of our pets she gives you the sense that everything is well taken care of. Allison far exceeds what I was expecting of a good pet sitter. In my opinion, there is absolutely no one better. I highly recommend Allison. You can feel at ease when you are away. She is a superstar!”
“Heidi does so well with our cats. Axel even waited for her at the window! She keeps in contact when she’s heading over and how the cats are doing. We left toys so they could have some playtime. :)”
About: I had the joy of a Lhasa Apso Miniature Toy Collie for four years, showing my love for both felines and canines. Due to unforeseen circumstances, I found a nurturing home with a dear friend for my dog. Now, working from home, I'm eager to bring a pet's companionship back into my life. I offer a clean, safe environment and enjoy spending time outdoors, soaking up fresh air during breaks and lunchtime walks around my complex. Creating a pet-friendly atmosphere is important to me, and it would be a pleasure to share my home with a furry friend. I'm gentle and affectionate with animals, and they naturally warm to me. I'm looking forward to meeting your pet and hopefully becoming your next sitter. I'm available for boarding drop-off after 3:30 p.m. on weekdays and after 9 a.m. on weekends. Pick-up time is by 5 p.m. on weekdays and by 3 p.m. on weekends, but I'm flexible if needed. I do not currently have any pets. In the near future, upon purchasing a home with acres of land and a secure yard, I plan to welcome a pet into my family.
“Sarah-Jane could not be a better pet sitter! Our cat, Louis, absolutely adores her, as do we. She is thorough, attentive, and communicative. She has a clear love for animals and it shines through in her work. She goes above and beyond to take care of our special guy and to keep us updated every step of the way. We have booked with her many times and will continue to do so whenever possible - we cannot recommend her highly enough!”
“Erin is a fantastic sitter. She was incredibly helpful for the two weeks we had her provide drop-in visits for. She communicated well. We loved the pictures and are so glad all three of our cats had such excellent care. She even took our garbage down to the street for trash day which was absolutely above and beyond. We came home to three well cuddled, well-fed, and happy kitties. We would absolutely use her services again in the future.”
About: I grew up with a lot of different pets. I had three cats and one dog in my adult life. They are no longer with me so I enjoy taking care of and boarding my friend’s animals when they are away. I really enjoy taking care of cats and dogs of all breeds and sizes. I own my own bookkeeping business and primarily work from home. I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I am looking forward to having a little company during my work day. I have a large second floor apartment and a fenced in yard. I live in the North End of Manchester so the neighborhood walks are nice and safe. I live close to Stark Park and Livingston Park for walking trails.

Manessa has been a true Godsend for all our pups since last year when she lovingly cared for Max 2 and Bennie. Now with Max 3 and Bennie. Max 3 is a teen pup we recently adopted just two weeks before we had to leave for a long weekend retreat. Manessa handled him with such skill and patience sometimes taking each pet separately for a walk . She went above and beyond and overtime ! Our friend was staying at our home but unable to walk Max alone so Manessa filled the gap! We are so grateful to have found such an amazing sitter and will always call on Manessa!
Absolute joy to work with Mallori, the dedication and commitment is second to none! Communication 10/10, honesty 10/10, punctual 10/10! If you’re looking for anyone to take care of your pets please look no further Mallori has you covered and will make sure they are properly taken care of! She does it for my two dogs Taco and Flynn I know she’ll do the same for you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Bedford is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $35 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,016 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Bedford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Bedford 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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

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 , 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.
