“Yarymar is incredible!!! She is so easy to communicate and plan with and is wonderful with our animals!!! It makes traveling easier knowing she is there with our furry loves!”
“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!”
“Ashley was great with my 3 dogs. She quickly won them over and they were very comfortable with her. I could tell by the photos and videos they loved their time with her, whether inside or outside they were all smiles. I would recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a natural animal lover.”
About: I’ve always had animals growing up and have always had an interest in taking care of animals. As soon as I was old enough family and friends have had me watch their animals. Dogs, cats, rats, bunnies, reptiles, you name it! I could not imagine having a life without animals. Currently I have two Siberian huskies, two cats, and one bunny. I’ve also had a lot of experience giving dogs and cats medication, and know all the tricks to get them to take it in a quick and easy manner. I’d like to say I’m very responsible, and will absolutely treat your animals like my own. My mornings and afternoons are typically very available, because I own an aerial studio and those classes are mainly held at night. I am a very active person so I am always looking to add more walks into my daily routine. At my home I have a fenced in yard, and two friendly, playful dogs. I do have two cats as well, but they can easily be separated. I also have two crates at my house that both of my dogs comfortable can go in when needing to be separated. At clients homes I can do anything you need me to for your pet. Treats, walks, playtime, crate time, and even snuggles.
“Jaimie was absolutely fantastic with Madeline! She took care of everything from feedings and litter maintenance to cleaning up unexpected hairball messes. She gave Madeline so much love and sent the best photo updates throughout the stay. I’m so grateful for her attentive care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet, reliable pet sitter!”
“Samantha was so great with our hyperactive nutball German shepherd Remington! We get nervous leaving her with people but she responded so amazingly to Samantha! Very clear that she loves animals and it showed with how happy our pup was!”
“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 :)”

“Kelly is an outstanding Cat person, when she walked in our black cat (Khaleesi) who is afraid of any and all human beings stayed around to sniff her and greet her. Kelly was the only cat sitter who got to see khaleesi during upcoming cat visits. Our other black and white mains come also melted when she gave him affection. If you want a cat sitter who knows cats, Kelly is your person.”
“This was my first time getting a pet sitter and I couldn’t be happier! My cat is getting old and Stephanie did as great job at not only keeping her company and making sure she was happy, but also keeping me informed on how she was doing. Loved the pictures! I will definitely use her again.”
“Wow, Christopher is the best! He checked in daily on my parents senior pup for a week during a family emergency, and his updates and care for Maggie put the family at ease. He was always extremely prompt and considerate; and took extra special care and attention to Maggie’s senior needs. I know Maggie will be excited to see him again!”
About: I’ve owned a dog since I was about 5 years old. I’ve always had the responsibility to walk and feed them. I take care of my friends dogs when they go on vacation by feeding them and walking them multiple times daily. The love I have for dogs is indescribable and I will show that kind of love to any dog I meet. I love every single kind of dog, there is no such thing as a bad dog just a bad owner. My current dog is a rescue who took a while to warm up to my family but now he is comfortable and happy in his own home. I love being around dogs and going the extra mile to make sure they feel loved and taken care of. I am currently a student at the University of New Hampshire and I work part time a couple of days at week at Tuscan Market. I am available most of the time on the weekends, depending my hours at my job and my availability during the week is most of the time this schedule: Mondays after 6pm, Tuesday’s and Thursday’s before 11am and after 12:30 pm, Wednesday before 4pm and after 6pm Friday/Saturday/Sunday varies. Currently I live at school with no pets and 4 other roommates who are animal lovers and would be more than happy to have a dog there if need be. I am able to walk, bathe, feed, love/cuddle and anything like that within my schedule. I really love dogs so much that this wouldn’t feel like a job to me at all, it would be fun and enjoyable to be surrounded by pups.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs and now own both as an adult. I have trained my dogs and built trust with them, and I have built a loving relationship with my cats. I trained my puppy when we got him and helped teach our rescue dog manners and trust. My cat trusts me and has learned to come when called, and my new rescue cat already follows me around! I am a part time worker so I have plenty of time on the weekends! I will work with you on my scheduled days to try to make things work for the both of us! I care for my pets with lots of love and respect. My cats get the best food I can afford and lots of pets throught the day. My dogs are walked often and fed morning and night. They enjoy outside time and staying close by.

Taylor should be the poster sitter/walker for Rover! She is an absolute angel and my dog Einstein loves her. She’s incredibly reliable, sweet and my dog immediately warmed up to her. She is incredibly communicative, takes lots of pictures and is just a wonderful person all around! If you need someone to walk your pup or do drop ins, Taylor is your girl!!!

Eleanor is amazing and my go-to sitter for my two cats. She went above and beyond while I was away for a week. This is my 3rd time with Eleanor and she has always been reliable. I feel completely at ease knowing she is taking care of my fur babies. Highly recommend!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,179 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Derry. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Derry stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
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 Derry. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
