“Yary was a great sitter for our two cats!! She treated them like her own, giving us great peace of mind on our trip away! Loved all the photos and updates she gave! Goose and Pita are excited to see her again in the future. Recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Dalyce is professional and dependable and a very good communicator. Most importantly, she has a great disposition for both my anxious shephard and super mellow senior. Felt very comfortable knowing they were in her care.”
“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.”
“I am so thankful for Tiffany’s daily visits with my pup. Bailey is super happy and well loved while I’m at work. Thank you Tiffany for putting my mind at ease and giving me extra time.”
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.
“Lindsay took care of our (cat) babies like they were her own. She took photos of them every time she came to see them, and spent time playing with them as well as feeding and medicating as needed. My cats loved her from the very first introduction. Lindsay is not only an animal lover, she's also a great lady. She surprised us with a list of places and things to try since she knew my husband and I had just moved into the area! We’re definitely looking forward to having her care for our cats in the future.”
“Brianna was great with our cat Connor. This was our first time using Rover and she made it so easy. Receiving the pictures of Connor during each check in was the best part. Thank you again and we will be in touch for future help!”
“Ardin did a great job with our big 100 lb. boy, Charlie, for 11 days, 3x a day drop in visits. The photos she included, with the activities they did (walks and soccer) showed a happy dog. Her texts really reassured us about how well it was going and we plan on rebooking with Ardin for a long family wedding this fall!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Derry is $25
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Derry
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.
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!

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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Derry on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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.
