About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. In addition to caring for pets through Rover, I previously volunteered at an animal shelter, where I gained experience working with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I learned the importance of patience, building trust, and making sure each animal felt safe and comfortable. I've also cared for goats and chickens through family friends and am happy to help with feeding, fresh water, collecting eggs, and making sure they're well cared for. Whether I'm playing fetch with an energetic dog, taking long walks, spending quiet time with a senior pet, or caring for farm animals, I enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality. I understand that trusting someone with your pets and home is a big decision. I'll treat them with the same love and attention I would my own, while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. As long as I have a reliable Wi-Fi connection, I can work from almost anywhere, meaning your pets won't be left alone for long periods. I do occasionally have virtual meetings during the workday, but they're typically brief, allowing me to quickly get back to giving your pets the attention, walks, playtime, and companionship they deserve. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat them and their space with the same respect and attention I would my own. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you are away. I always take time to give them affection, keep them active, and make sure they are happy and relaxed. I also keep things tidy and make sure your home is just as you left it. Communication is very important to me, so I send updates and photos during each visit so you can feel confident that your pet is well cared for.
About: I have spent lots of time with a family dog and have been a sitter for several breeds over the years, often through friends and family. I am always over the moon to meet and spoil (to the owners comfort) a new furry freind! I am currently a graduate student which allows me the flexibility to schedule quality walks and play time with your pups! I typically work from home 50% of the work week, so getting out for a walk in between computational work is a win win! As a dog walker I will make sure your pup has a positive high quality walking experience. If I am sitting, I will ensure all fur babies get the level attention and care they need to feel safe and happy.
“As anxious dog parents we had a great experience working with Leah. She was very communicative and worked well with our pups which helped a lot with our anxiety while away (5 total visits). Would definitely book again!”
About: I have been a lifelong pet owner and have always had a deep love for animals. I lovingly cared for my cat, Milo, for 15 years, and for the past two years, I have cared for our cat, Luca, and our two fluffy French Bulldogs, Bella and Bean. I truly enjoy the companionship and happiness animals bring into our lives. Whether it’s playing, cuddling, going for walks, or simply spending quality time together, I love making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I am currently a full-time teacher, so I am available for pet care in the late afternoons and on weekends. I also have availability during school holidays and am available full-time throughout the summer. This schedule allows me to provide flexible and attentive care for your pets. When caring for your dogs in your home, I would love to take them for walks, play with them, and maintain their usual routines. I want to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away, so I’m happy to follow whatever routines and activities work best for them!
“Sue is the best. You can stop looking for the best pet sitter. It's Sue. She communicates well, she's flexible, she's kind, and she always sends a great picture of your pet. 100% would book again. Sue is the best.”
“Dawn took care of our two cats while we were away for 10 days. She was very reliable, and checked in each day. We could tell she did a great job feeding playing with (our one cat that is social) and cleaning up after our fur babies. Thank you Dawn- we hope you will come back! Sorry Jazzie hid the whole time but we hope Frank was fun and a good boy for you!”
“Jen did an excellent job caring for our cats while we were on vacation! We have two cats, and one has special medical needs as she is diagnosed with diabetes and requires insulin shots twice a day. Jen was very patient with her, as she has some bathroom issues also due to her diabetes and doesn’t always make it all the way into the litter box. Our other cat is a Maine Coon who requires some extra enrichment and attention. Jen took the time to play with him each time she visited. Jen checked in with us often, sent us pictures and provided us with detailed daily reports about each of our cats. We highly recommend Jen!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Center Harbor
Jeremy was incredibly kind, communicative, and helpful with my senior dog. He made sure Skylar was dressed for the snowy weather, had her proper exercise, fed her meal, and was safe and comfy— and back in her bed and crate before he left the apartment. He even helped take out the trash in my apartment so my dog wouldn’t try to get into it when I’m not home (as you know some puppies like to rebel haha!). I would highly recommend Jeremy to look after your little loved ones—he was exactly on time and an incredibly caring with my doggo.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Center Harbor is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 295 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Center Harbor. 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.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Center Harbor. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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.
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.
