“Vanessa is amazing! She took such great of our three pets. Our dog is incredibly nervous with strangers and he absolutely loves her. Will absolutely be booking with Vanessa again!”
“We had a great experience leaving our dogs, cat, and home in Annie's care! She was communicative and shared lots of photos but also gave us the freedom to enjoy our time away. The animals seemed to enjoy their time with her and the house was in great shape when we came home. Really all you can ask for! We look forward to using Annie's services again in the future.”
“Lauren was amazing! She gave me updates throughout our visit, was super communicative and kind, and put me at ease leaving my 4mo old pup with someone else for the first time!! Will definitely be using her again :)”
About: I've had Cats all my life, and Dogs as long as I can remember! I worked my way up from Attendant to Supervisor at a local Veterinary Hospital I was at for 6 1/2 years. I had 15 Attendants working underneath me that I hired, scheduled and trained. I was in charge of Small and Large Breed boarding departments, Doggie Daycare, and cats as well. My duties consisted of Monitoring, Feeding, Medicating and exercising Boarding and Daycare Animals from Friendly to Aggressive and Puppies to Seniors. It’s a blessing to be able to give each pet (or household of pets) their own deserved care and undivided attention rather than having to split my time and energy between pets at a large facility. I consider myself lucky to be able to work for myself and make my own schedule. This allows me to care for pets and still spend time with my family. I have a friendly 6 year old mix spayed female at home that I trained myself. She loves playing ball and going for our daily walks. I have the desire and the time to take care of your four legged besties! I love to exercise and get outside so I have the energy to keep up with your pet and tire them out. =)
About: I have my very own rescued golden retriever/hound mix named Goldfish. He’s taught me the importance of patience, slow introductions and the power of treats! I have experience working with large breeds, anxious dogs, reactive dogs and senior dogs with special needs. I’m also a runner so I’d be happy to take your high energy pups on a run! I have a flexible schedule since I work part time. I will be available to hang out with your pups most days of the week! I’m attune to dog body language and make sure to read their cues when approaching them. I’ll be sure that they’re secure when entering and exiting a home. When we’re on walks, I’ll make sure that they don’t get into things when they’re not supposed to and be cautious of other dogs and people.
“Sam was an amazing sitter for our 3 dogs and they loved her company so much. She watched the dogs while we had to travel far for a concert and she kept them loved and entertained until we returned. She is kind, sweet and clearly loves our dogs. She updated us with photos and kept us up to date frequently. We will hire her again without question!”
“Meredith was great with Waffles while I was abroad. She checked in regularly with updates and sent pictures. She also left the house in great shape when she left! Highly recommend.”
“Jennifer was wonderful! She was very attentive, communicative, and took great care of our three boys while we were away. She sent tons of photos and made sure to keep us updated, which was very appreciated. We would definitely recommend!!”
“Sean was amazing! She sent pictures daily of the dogs and their activities. She followed the instructions left for her. It was so nice to have the peace of mind that my fur babies were being well taken care of while we were away. Will definitely use her again!”
“Katie did an excellent job taking care of our dog for 9 nights while we were in Europe. We felt at ease knowing our dog was in good hands, which allowed us to fully enjoy our trip. She provided regular updates with photos, which we really appreciated. Katie also stayed in our home, treated it with care, and left it clean and tidy.”
“Sarah is an attentive and caring sitter. She treated my home as her own and was so careful with my senior citizen and my little troublemaker. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Sarah again!”
“Natalie has stayed at my house and cared for my 50lbs retriever pit mix twice now and she is fantastic. Responsive, responsible, affectionate and loving with my dog! I will continue to hire her and recommend highly!”
About: My name is Victoria and I have a wide range of experience caring for animals. Being a pet owner myself, I know what others are looking for while leaving their loved ones in the hands of others. Throughout my time looking after pets my duties have been; walking, feeding, boarding, giving pets with Diabetes their injection of insulin, giving animals their daily medications (both liquid and pills) and just about anything else you can think of! I have taken care of 6 month old puppies to 17 year old dogs of all different breeds and disabilities. I don't view animals as pets but as members of a family. When your pet is with me, they will be treated like royalty! My current job is both remote and flexible, giving me the ability to be attentive and care for your your pets consistently throughout each day! My home is pet very pet friendly and safe. Animals are allowed on the couch and beds! Along with walks, there is a dog play area where I live to keep your pet(s) entertained and happy! Please note I do have a very friendly dog at my home (he loves all animals!) so if your pet is boarded my dog will be present. I would also like to add a note that if you are requesting house sitting services, I usually take my dog with me for the nights unless requested otherwise. If that is the case, please let me know and I will see if I can make accommodations for my pet so I am able. Thank you!
“Emily did a great job looking after our cat! She was communicative prior to the start of the booking, and great with managing the details. During her stay, I got lots of great updates and photos which were much appreciated. I would absolutely use her services again!”
“Asia took wonderful care of my Yorkie over the course of two days this week. She is friendly, diligent, professional, communicative, and very kind. Your pet could not possibly be in a better hands. She has a great love for animals and it shows in her work.”
About: I've had dogs my entire life and have also taken care of friends & coworkers pets on several occasions. I've trained my own dog in an office environment. I work fully remote so it's very easy for me to plan my day around pets. I have walking trails all around my building and plan out several walks throughout the day. My dog plays very well with other dogs so it would be a good form of stimulation throughout the day. I also like taking the dogs out for multiple walks throughout the day to get fresh air.
“Tom was wonderful! Our dog is usually really nervous around strangers and we’re pretty used to coming home to a skinnier version of her but she seemed to really enjoy being around him. Would definitely ask him to look after them again.”
About: What I might lack in professional certifications, I make up for in genuine love and attentiveness. I've cared for small breeds like Chihuahuas and poodles for a close friend, and those experiences were nothing short of wonderful — I treated their dogs like family, and it showed. I'm patient, observant, and quick to pick up on a dog's individual quirks and needs, whether that means a specific walking pace, favorite toys, or just extra cuddle time. I believe the best care comes from someone who genuinely wants to be there, and that's exactly what I bring. Your dog won't just be looked after — they'll be adored. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I offer dog walking services and keep a flexible schedule to accommodate your pup’s needs. I’m reliable, punctual, and treat every walk as a chance to give your dog the exercise, stimulation, and one-on-one attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort is my top priority. I have experience caring for dogs through friends and family, so I understand how important it is to follow each dog’s routine and individual needs. I’m attentive, calm, and great with small to medium breeds including Cavapoos, Mini Dachshunds, Golden Retrievers, and hypoallergenic breeds. You can trust your pup is in caring, responsible hands.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Danvers
We couldn’t be happier with Branka! She was a great fit for our pup, took excellent care of her and our home, and gave consistent updates while we were gone. We loved getting silly videos of our girl playing in the water, or pictures of them cuddled up on the couch. Would absolutely use her again!
Kathrine is such a professional, I knew from the moment she walked in that she was prepared to learn everything about my dog and home in order to best care for him. We were so pleased! She communicates frequently, sent happy pics of our pup, and took good care of our home while we were away. Would definitely use her again!

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 Danvers 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 Danvers 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Danvers 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!

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 .
