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.
“Brye is fantastic with my two cats and I love the updates and photos she sends. She spends quality time with them and gets to know their personalities. I know they are on good hands when I’m away!”
“Amanda was so great for drop-ins with our senior dog when we had to travel! We got thorough updates and progress reports and the cutest pictures. She kept up with her medications and routine. After our first meet and greet I knew she'd be great with our dog and she definitely was!”
“Samantha is amazing! She took a very good care of our cat while we were traveling. She checked on her twice a day and fed her and played with her. Our cat is very happy :) and we’re happy as well. Very trustful and kind person. She’s gonna be our choice from now on! Thank you Samantha! ☘️”
“Andrea was very nice and had excellency communication. On top of that she was able to get Tucker in last minute (the next day). For sure recommend using Andrea for your furry family.”
“Jessica was caring and attentive to our kitties! She was able to modify some instructions when my kitten wasn’t eating as well and was very communicative with updates. Thanks, Jessica!”
“Once again Heidi has helped us in a pinch! We had to leave town for a funeral on short notice and Heidi was there for us. Our boys love to see her and we can relax knowing they are well cared for.”
“Vivian was an amazing support for my cat while I was away for 5 days. She spent quality time with her, completed all tasks, and checked in with me daily. I look forward to working with her again!”
“Andrew is very communicative and has calm energy with my anxious dogs. He did drop ins with them and he will also be house sitting in a few weeks. I know my goblins will be in good hands with him!”
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.
“Yujie has been doing regular weekly drop-in visits for our two dogs, and he’s been amazing. He’s very attentive, communicative, and responds quickly. He’s truly gone above and beyond to care for my dogs while I’m working. My dogs, Arnold and Rico, absolutely love Yujie, and he always sends us great pictures during his visits. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they have a caring, reliable person spending time with them during the day—playing with them and giving them potty breaks. I would highly recommend Yujie for anyone looking for pet care!”
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.
About: I have experiences beyond words with animals. I'm motivated, eager and willing to go above to help any needing, hurting, hungry, poor little unfortunate and fortunately furry soul. I work independently with flexible hours. I am full of energy and take pride in everything I do. Im willing, capable determined and extremely driven. My love for animals is indiscribable. Safety,exercize, grooming, feeding and consistency. I have different levels of training. I have worked with many different animals fearlessly.
About: I've had 3 rescue dogs of my own in the last 10 years and I've cared for friends and families pets alongside that. I was the manager of a pet sitting company for the 6 months and have been building my own clientele for nearly a year. I also have several years of experience with snakes, hamsters, horses and other farm animals. I run my own 2 businesses from home, so I can play with your pups anytime! Weekdays, occasional weekends or nights! Going on vacation? I got you covered! I tailor my care for your pet based on your needs. Walks, letouts in the yard, crating, gating, giving meds, etc. There won't be a break in your pup's care routine when you're at work or out of town.
About: I have worked in a veterinarian customer care setting for over 5 years as well as I have 5 years of experience as a dog walker, daycare worker, and boarder. I am able to administer medications including insulin. With my knowledge of vet medicine, I do know when an animal’s condition needs immediate medical attention. I believe safety, transparency, and communication are all really important when taking care of someone else’s pet. All fur friends are beloved members of their families and so, I always try to provide the utmost care to any pet that I work with. I am both an animal care provider as well as a private voice lesson teacher. These two careers work beautifully together with scheduling as the first half of my day is dedicated to animal care and the second half to music. I only care for pets in the owner’s home because I have two dogs at home myself. I make sure that I always leave a space the way it was when I entered being mindful of cleanliness (like not tracking dirt into the house, etc). If a dog seems more timid during the first visit, I make sure to take the time and go slow to give your pet time to warm up to me. If we are outside walking, safety is my number one priority. Making sure that the clasp on the leash/walking gear is secure, and not interacting

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

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.
