“James is great! Very good communication. Took care of my 3 kitties for the weekend and everything went really smoothly. I will definitely hire him again! Thank you James!”
About: My schedule is very specific working around work shifts! I’m very communicative and we can work something out that is best for both of us!! I have both personal and professional experience with cats and dogs. I’ve worked with dogs during my time at Essex Tech. I have also have basic experiences with small animals such as rabbits, birds, and reptiles. During my time there I learned the basics of training, grooming and overall behavior. This all led me to have a better grasp at caring for dogs and what their needs are. I have my own cat named Fasa and a dog named Summer, so I have personal experience with them! He’s the buff kitty in my photos! I have also worked at a doggy daycare located in Salem called Walk A Pup where they strive to provide a safe and enriching environment for the dogs in their care. During those six months, I not only walked dogs but also did basic obedience and evening check-ins at client's homes. I was also briefly a bather at Petsmart where watching behavior is a big aspect. Currently I work there caring for the animals we sell. I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified. Working part-time fills in a lot of my time and my schedule is often on a week-by-week basis. My availability varies, so it’s best for you to just message me to find out if my schedule works with yours! I know leaving your pet to a stranger is very nerve-wracking and scary. However, I like to reassure you that because of my experience, I am equipped to make sure that your pet has the care they need while you are away for work, vacation, or any other situation. I am more than happy to update you as many times are you need me to. I am also certified in Pet CPR and First aid and have a car that allows me to drive your pet somewhere if something were to happen.
“So great with my two cats while I was away!! They’re usually shy around people and they were snuggling up to her after the second visit. Would highly recommend her for any of your fur baby needs!”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals — usually 3 or 4 dogs, several cats, 12 horses, 4 goats, and a flock of chickens at any given time! I’m completely comfortable around all types of animals and love caring for them. I’m a huge pet person with two wonderful dogs of my own — Dory, age 5, and her mom, Hattie, age 13! I work fully remote as a travel agent, which gives me a flexible schedule to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m trustworthy, responsible, and always follow instructions carefully to ensure your pet stays safe, happy, and healthy! :) I board my parents’ dogs every year between January and March and have been doing so for the past four years. I live in a two-story home with stairs and a fully fenced backyard, giving dogs plenty of space to play and relax safely.
About: Because I am only working part time, I have availability at some point everyday so look after your pet. I want to ensure that they stay on a consistent schedule. When taking care of your pet, ensuring that they are happy and healthy is my top priority. I want to get to know their personality and what they enjoy doing, such as playing or being brushed.
“Alyssa was fantastic to work with & I knew that my fur baby would be in good hands with her! She went above and beyond to make sure my cat was ok & happy (as he could be) while we were away. Would definitely recommend and book with her again!”
About: I have worked with caring for dogs for the past 5 years! I am comfortable with all types of dogs; breeds and sizes! I am comfortable administering medications including insulin! I am currently working full time at the boarding kennel I work at, however, I am still able to do drop-in visits, house sitting, or walks as long as you are flexible! I am able to follow any instructions you give me on what you would like me to do for your pet while you’re away! I am good at communicating if I have any concerns or questions I may have while caring for your pet! I am very observant, so if something seems off, I will always let you know!
“Wendy was wonderful in taking care of our cat while we were gone for Christmas. She sent multiple pictures each day, stayed with Maggie longer than the minimum time to comfort and support her, and properly fed and watered her. I would hire Wendy again in a heartbeat and plan to do so when we go back to NY in May. This woman is one of the really professional and competent sitters out there. Thank you, Wendy.”
“Emerson was great! She showed up on time, and followed instructions to a tea. And had zero problems with my 6 month old Malinois, and other large dog! Even in the pouring rain. Would recommend her for any of your pets needs :)”
About: I'm currently a Pre-Veterinary student at University of New Hampshire and currently work at a local veterinary clinic. As a veterinary assistant I have gained experience with animal handling and care. I am also Fear Free Certified and know had to adequately prevent fear, anxiety, and stress in both cats and dogs. I have previously worked at a training facility and am familiar with certain signals and behaviors that animals demonstrate to express themselves. I have owned cats and dogs my entire life and have been exposed to many types of breeds, species, and seen interesting cases regarding animal health. When I'm not at school I take care of my two dogs and cats at home. Furthermore, I work part-time at a veterinary clinic at school and at home so I am constantly surrounded by animals and have exposure to many cases. I previously owned a diabetic cat and learned how to administer insulin shots and monitor her glucose levels multiple times a day. I feed and water my animals in my home at least twice a day, snacks are often provided as well. I walk my dogs as much as necessary (typically twice a day). I always play with my cats and dogs. I have a kitten who loves playing fetch with toy mice and a 5 year old dog who enjoys hiking trips and swimming. The two dogs get groomed when needed but I brush them consistently in between grooms. Finally, I am responsible when it comes to my animals' health and notice any changes in behavior or appearance almost immediately. I find it important to keep them up to date with vaccines and any other medications they need.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I’ve walked and fed them, and made sure they were happy at home. I have my own 11 year old beagle/terrier/boxer mix dog Bailey who I love to take care of, he’s my best friend. I’m a college student, and I have times throughout the week especially on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. My schedule is flexible and I have a car. I like to bring calming and loving energy into every home. I love to make sure each pet is comfortable. I love to take dogs on walks, play with them inside and outside, and make sure they are getting fed and cared for.
About: I offer animal communication readings for you and your pet. You simply ask your pet questions and I relay their answers! I have been a psychic for 13 years. I work for myself so I can create my own schedule. I do my animal communication calls over zoom and am pretty flexible in terms of days/times. I can do readings for any type of animal. Clients freaking love getting readings to feel closer to their pets! I care for pets by making sure they are seen and understood. Have you ever had a sitter that could actually talk to your pet? It's a game changer!
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I am happy to leave covered in hair & smelling like whatever they smell like! I am comfortable with puppies-senior. I am free almost all evenings & early mornings. Weekends are mostly open, too! Mondays are usually always free starting in August. Currently I’m pretty flexible, too! I follow directions & am comfortable reaching out if I have questions. I lean on the safe side & want the absolute best for your pet.
About: I have had cats my entire life, sometimes multiple cats at once. I bought my own cat when I was 10 and did the best I could to care for her. She lived to be over 20 years old. I have cat sat and dog sat for friends and family members. I have training in behavior therapy and understand the importance of positive praise as well as being consistent with demands. I currently work full time as a child and family therapist. However I work from home two days per week. I am also available most weekends when needed. I have grown up with cats my entire life and currently live with two labs and own a cat of my own. She has had some medical issues and it was very important for me to take care of her during this time. I have experience giving her medication of different forms and make sure her litter box is clean. She always has fresh water and many toys (mostly homemade because that’s her favorite) to play with. She also loves to play hide and seek.
“After meeting with Gwen we felt they were a good fit, and we scheduled nightly check ins/ feedings for our cats for the 10 days we would be visiting family. Gwen has such a pleasant demeanor and always talks to our cats just like we would! We made it clear that our priority is the cats getting love and attention and they consistently played with and loved on our cats. They are great at following instructions and not only made sure our cats were loved and fed but also took care of our many plants, and even tackled the weekly deep clean of our giant litter box! Our cats always seem happy to see Gwen and we got detailed updates and excellent communication throughout our trip. When we had to extend our trip for a couple days, they went above and beyond and accommodated to be able to continue the check-ins for those days. Gwen is a friendly, responsible, attentive person and is a fabulous sitter! We highly recommend their services!”
About: I grew up with, and have cared for dogs for most of my life. I have taken care of family members and friends dogs, some long-term, throughout my adult life. I’m very gentle natured and meet dogs where they are at. My job is to make them feel comfortable and cared for and all of the dogs I have cared for have had such different needs and personalities! I’m very keen on reading their signals, and have dealt with timid/older dogs in the past, and helped them come out of their shells. I currently work part time as a manager at Somersworth Storage, on Thursday’s Friday’s (9am-5pm and every other Saturday until (9am-1pm). I’m available Monday-Wednesday, however I would be available some Saturdays as well. I do not currently have any pets, and would care for an animal based off of their environment, and if they have a fenced in yard or require leash walks around the neighborhood.
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and rescued a cat while in college. I have also taken care of my friends/family’s pets when they are away. I work night shift and have a somewhat flexible work schedule that only takes up 3 nights per week. I’m willing to work with you to coordinate the care of your pet and can make schedule changes with enough advance. I can adjust easily to the routine typically done for the pet and will honor the wishes of the owner. I abide by leash laws and use an abundance of caution during interactions with other animals or people.
About: I've taken care of all ages of cats and dogs, and handled things like medication or appointments. I've pet sat for multiple friends, coworkers and family members throughout the years and many of them have come back multiple times for me to do it again. I own my own business so I make my own hours and can be flexible on when I'm needed. I'm available weekdays but not weekends. I will make sure to follow any and all instructions you leave, and love to play and cuddle with animals. I also have time to bring dogs on longer walks if needed.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
