“I highly recommend Leilani! She is reliable, professional, and genuinely care about the well-being of my dog. Communication is excellent, and I always receive updates and photos, which gives me peace of mind while I'm away. My dog is always excited to see her and comes home happy and well-exercised after every walk. It's clear she has a real love for animals and treat my dog as if it were her own. I couldn't be happier with the service and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”

About: Hi! I’m Chelsi, a dog‑loving outdoor enthusiast based in Canterbury, NH. I believe every pup deserves safe adventures, enrichment, and lots of love while their family is away. I’m fully insured and certified in Dog First Aid and CPR, so safety is always a top priority. Whether your pup needs a **neighborhood walk, a drop‑in for meals and potty breaks, overnight pet sitting, or a fun hike on the trails**, I’ve got you covered. I’ll also happily send updates and photos so you always feel connected to your furry family member. Active person going to school and working part time. Available for solo walks, pet sitting and drop ins. Ask about doing longer local adventure hikes! I try to cater to you and your pets needs as much as possible. I will be respectful in your home and communicate regularly so you know how your pet is doing.

“We have booked Kate a few times and every time has been wonderful. She is very punctual, very reliable, and so nice to our fur babies. Would highly recommend her, she is absolutely our go to sitter.”


“Betsy was a HUGE help to us while we were away on vacation!! She made drop-in visits to check on our fur baby, and we couldn't have felt more at ease! Our dog is very skittish around strangers, but Betsy was able to put her right at ease. Our dog is rather picky and won't eat very well unless some is there. Betsy accommodated this need and sat with her while she ate each day. She also sent us picture and video updates throughout the time we were away to let us know our baby was doing great! We couldn't have asked for anyone better to help take care of our dog, and we sure hope Betsy is available for our future needs since she helped us SO much!”

“Andrea was great with our dog with his drop in visits. He can be anxious to newcomers and is a large breed but she was very understanding of his needs and they bonded very quickly. She provided pictures which was also helpful for us. We will certainly work with her again!”


About: I had a pet dog growing up, and I have frequently dog-sat for my parents. I now find myself under employed and looking to make some extra money while spending time with dogs! I'm currently working part-time, with the option to work from home, so I am extremely flexible. I live in downtown Concord within walking distance of 3 parks, so near constant access to the outdoors is a bonus! I live in an apartment that allows dogs of all sizes and breeds. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do live on the ground floor and have a lead attached to my deck for when I'm hanging out on the deck I also have a pet cat, so ant dog staying in the house would need to be cat savy.
“Shelby is awesome. I’ve been using her services for almost 3 years now. My dogs know her and looks forward to drop in visits when I work long hours. She paid special attention to my little guy who seemed to hurt his leg recently. She’s like part of our pack now.”
“John has been absolutely wonderful with my puppy, Lainey. He is reliable, patient, and clearly loves dogs. As a new puppy owner, it gives me great peace of mind knowing that Lainey is in such caring hands. John takes the time to make sure she gets the exercise, attention, and positive interaction she needs, and he always keeps me updated on how she’s doing. Lainey is excited to see him, which tells me everything I need to know about the quality of care he provides. I highly recommend John to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and compassionate dog walker. We are so grateful to have found him!”

About: I have had one or more dogs in my house since the day I was born! I just want to give every dog (and pet) the love and attention they deserve, no matter what their age is or their activity level. Doggie cuddles and rubs are the best part of my day! I love playing frisbee and going on long (or short) walks through the neighborhood and in parks. Squeaky toys are lots of fun! Pets are just as much a part of our family as children are! You should never have to worry about your furniture being chewed up or if you pet is getting enough attention while you are at work or on vacation. I will love your pet as much as I love my own! They will get the same amount of attention as if they were mine!
About: Hi, I’m Jazmin! Animals have always been such a big part of my life, and I treat every pet I care for like they’re my own. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, long walks, or making sure they stick to their routine, I’m here to give your furry friend the love and attention they deserve. I currently work in hairdressing so my schedule is flexible I offer mornings, evenings and weekends with the possibility of weekday afternoons in the near future! I currently live in an apartment that is pet friendly if I had to pet sit in my home and I live near two very convenient dog hiking trails which is great! and at the clients home that would be up to you weather you would like me to take them on a walk or stay in your area or yard!
About: I've cared for dogs of various sizes all of my life. Big dogs, little dogs, sport dogs, herding dogs and rescue dogs. All different in their own special ways and loved them all. We currently have a 2 year old mixed breed from Louisiana named Beau, who loves to run, play, swim, hike and cuddle. I'm currently working part-time, so will have plenty of time to play and care for your pups. My schedule is very flexible and easy to adapt to your pet's needs. I have a fenced in backyard at home and am very comfortable caring for your dog in your home the way you prefer. Please let me know if they have particular leashes, harnesses or treats they prefer when I visit. I'd love a quick meet and greet first to make sure your pups are happy and feel safe with me.
“Kristina really helped us out with a last minute booking! She’s flexible, responsive, and respectful. She made sure our boys were take care of and even brought in packages so they wouldn’t get left out in the rain!”

About: I have always been around dogs since I was a kid. Between my own, family members and neighbors, I have cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for many years and been able to adjust to each dog’s needs with no problem at all. I am great at tiring pups out with play or long walks or hanging with them if they are on the lazier side! I work part time in Concord so I’m looking to take care of dogs for fun and some extra cash! I am available differing days of the week depending on my schedule, but when I am free I will be able to tire out the pups with long walks or extended play sessions if they so desire! I will easily be able to navigate client homes and learn a dogs likes and dislikes quickly to make for a smooth and comfortable experience for the pups.
“Jess did a wonderful job taking care of our bunny, Beep, while we were out of town. Jess was responsive, flexible, and just an all around great pet sitter. 10/10 would recommend!”


About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also foster dogs and work closely with a local rescue, which has given me experience helping dogs adjust to new environments, build confidence, and feel safe. I'm comfortable working with reactive dogs and have a solid understanding of basic training, so I can reinforce good habits and provide calm, consistent care during walks and visits. Whether your dog loves long adventures, leisurely strolls, or plenty of playtime and cuddles, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, reliable hands. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I work evenings as a bartender, so I'm available most mornings and afternoons for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. My shifts are typically only a few hours long, which gives me plenty of flexibility, and I also have every other weekend off. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to and prioritize in my schedule. I always tailor my care to each pet's individual routine and needs. If your pet is staying in my home, they'll have the company of my friendly, well-socialized dog. Outdoor time is always supervised, and I can use a lead or crate dogs when appropriate for their safety and comfort. For overnight stays in a client's home, I would need to bring my own dog with me. She is well-trained, respectful, and gets along well with other dogs. I understand that this isn't the right fit for every pet, so I'm always happy to discuss or set up a meet to see whether it would be a good match beforehand. To make sure your pet has the best experience possible, I ask that owners let me know about any treat or food allergies, dietary restrictions, favorite toys, or anything they should avoid. I love following your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away.

About: Hello! I have taken care of my own, family, and friends' animals for over 15 years and those in the community going on five years. I've worked with most breeds and ages. Size does not matter whether your best friend is 5Ibs or 150Ibs! I have a flexible schedule and can work with you on times. Whether it's walking, visits and feeding or all of the above I'm happy to help. I have experience with senior dogs and their sometimes more complex needs, including medical. For all services I require a meet and greet first. For house sitting, I don't do over nights but can be there very early and/or late and happy to work from your home and give your dog(s) as much interaction and breaks they need. For daycare in my home, I require a meet and greet with my dogs, preferably on neutral ground such as a local park, or my yard if needed. Dogs are just like humans, sometimes they're best friends sometimes they aren't and my number one priority is the safety of all animals. Dogs need to be okay with kids. My children are very respectful and I've taught them from a young age how to interact with dogs and read their body language, and give them space. But I know not all dogs have had positive experiences with kids. Don't worry about size or puppy rambunctiousness- they are used to that! I have extra crates if needed or prefered. I don't do off leash, your dog may be great off leash and have awesome recall, but I'm a new person and your dog might be anxious or just not as focused with someone new. Again my priority is safety, after all this is your best friend and family member! I have ground tethers that give them a large range to free roam, explore and play. I also use 30ft leads for fun walks in woods or local hiking trails. Feel free to ask about cats too! I love cats and am first and foremost a crazy cat lady. I've sat for all ages and levels of feline pickiness. I've done meds, including injections for kitties too. I work from home and as a result have a flexible schedule. I take time out of my day regularily to walk, play and be with our dogs and yours, it's a great way for me to break up my day and get to know the great dogs in the community. When caring for your pets I take great care to be respectful of your space, only going where I need to for your animals. I make a point to clean any pet mess and ensure they are secure before leaving.

“Paige was excellent! In the past with having several dogs, it has been next to impossible to take any sort of vacation without having to board them...and the trauma of being away from their home... plus the cost being more than the trip itself...was just not worth it. Paige came to my home twice a day to feed, water and play with them plus put them in their beds at night! She updated me with pictures of them and kept me informed about bad weather coming...making me feel comfortable that they were in good hands at all times. Her love of dogs is obvious and I won't hesitate to have her sit for me again in the future! FIVE STARS for PAIGE!! Sherrie”

Megan does an awesome job communicating and problem solving. We never would have predicted that our kitten would lock himself in our bedroom without access to kitty litter. Megan saved the day by showing up early and placing weight to keep the door open! This did not happen again during our long absence. He was always so happy to see her!

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 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 Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
