“Emily was GREAT! She did a couple of check-ins/bathroom breaks with my senior dog, Lola, while I was away for the day. Her communication was great both before & during the visits & Lola was so well taken care of. I will definitely be reaching back out to Emily the next time I need pet care!”
About: I have worked as a Kennel Attendant taking care of multiple dogs at a time while also caring for my own dogs and taking care of family pets and or friends pets. Whether it be feelings, taking on walks, talking outside for the bathroom, bathing and spending time with our furry friends. I have always had a strong love for dogs of all sizes and would love to meet your furry friends! I am a little new to this app to bear with me and I appreciate all your requests!! I am currently finishing my senior year of school online and am currently working part time. I have some days and times available to hangout and come see your furry friends! I would love to hear from everyone about times and days and we can chat about what works for the both of us! I am very flexible while also being very flexible about pet care times! Thank you so much for your time and consideration! I have a fenced in backyard and two very friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company! I can crate your dog if needed but would always love to have them out and about.
“Yunshu was wonderful with our cats. One of them is very old and needs two meds plus prescription food but she handled it all with no problems. She was very communicative and sent lots of videos and pics. I'm so glad we found her! Yunshu is the best!”
“Mary was excellent! She took care of my two cats while we were on vacation for almost two weeks. She came over twice a day and provided updates and pictures of them everyday. I felt super at ease knowing they were in great hands while we were away. 10/10 would hire her again!”
About: I grew up on a farm and have raised puppies, kittens, cats, and dogs my whole life. I recently lost my elder dog, so I’m happy to spend time with yours. Looking forward to spending time, walking and playing with your dog, cat, kitten or puppy. I work part time so I’m very flexible and active! I am available to stay with your pet, and give them exercise and lots of attention needed to keep them happy! I am familiar with picky eaters and administering medication if needed.
“We were happy to meet Matt today. He spent lots of time time playing with Lola, asked great questions about her care, and listened to all of my concerns. Our pup can run anxious and he made her feel at ease. We are looking forward to having him back for sure.”
“Lucas was great, talkative, and friendly. Asked all the right questions and sent us great photos of our cat. He made us super comfortable, and truly one of the best pet sitters we have had. We can’t wait to work with Lucas again, 10 out of 10 would recommend.”
“Paloma was available on short notice for an evening drop-in visit and even called ahead to ensure proper care instructions were followed. She was punctual and responsive while taking care of our senior dog and young puppy, even checking on our cats as well. She left the house in order and the pets happy. We will definitely book again!”
“Being away for two weeks was made so much better knowing Michelle was there to spend time with our Cooper. Seeing him look so happy every day made our vacation even more enjoyable”
“Georgia saved us when we needed a last minute sitter after our previously booked sitter cancelled morning of. She was quick to respond and was able to get to our house with only 1.5 hours notice. It seemed like our puppy had a good time with her and was well cared for during the hour drop in. Definitely will book again!”
About: Mason and I have both had pets our entire lives, there has not been a single moment in my life where there wasn't a pet in the house. Between the two of us, we have experience with dogs, cats, bunnies, rats, mice, hamsters, Guinae pigs, and even a little experience with birds. Though new to Rover itself, we have housesat many times for family and friends, taking care dogs and cats as well as chickens and even turtles. We live with my parents and their two dogs and two cats, whom we take care of when they go out of town. In addition to this, we are also pet parents to two adorable bunnies Motzi and Popo who my parents care for when I house sit. Mason and I are both in school, but work opposite shifts when not in class, so your furry friends will never be home alone for long periods of time. We are avid hikers and love to walk, so an active puppy is no problem for us. We both love animals and have extensive experience with a variety of pets and their personalities and would love to get to know yours! As pet parents ourselves, we know it can be difficult, and sometimes scary leaving them with other people for a time, but you can trust that Mason and I will provide thorough, loving care for your furry friend(s)! Mason works early morning into the afternoon and I am currently in college. When I am not in class, I have full availability with your pets, so your furry friends will never be home alone for very long. On a typical week, Mason and I both leave the house at around 6:30 or 7 am depending on how our commute may be where we are staying. I am usually back from school before noon and will spend the rest of the afternoon with your pets! Once Mason is home from work, we both take care of your furry friends. We will always do our best and move our schedules as much as possible to ensure that pets are not home alone for extended periods of time, especially young puppies or kittens as we know how adorable, yet mischievous they can be 😂! We are very flexible when it comes to the care of your pets, they are your pets after all! Whatever needs to be done for them, we got you! If for any reason, we think the job may require more time than we have to give, I will gladly let you know so that your pets will receive the care that they need and deserve. As lifelong pet owners, we have experience will mischievous puppies and kitties who get into stuff they shouldn't, as well as older pets who may need a little extra attention when it comes to things like food and medications. I have had many pets, and know how different their personalities and needs may be, and we are very comfortable catering to specific needs of your furry friends whether it be behavioral or medical.
“Michelle offered a meet and greet before she cared for my dog, which I greatly appreciated. She was on time to let my pup out, sent photos, and made me feel extremely comfortable about the level of care she gave. I highly recommend Michelle and will call on her again to look after Mia.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of different personalities and energy levels, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with every pet I meet. Working in veterinary medicine has helped me stay calm, attentive and detail-oriented in fast-paced situations, while also teaching me how important patience and compassion are when caring for animals. I understand that every pet has their own routine and comfort level, and I always strive to make them feel safe, loved and stress-free while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my combination of professional animal care experience, reliability, and the genuine love and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Since I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to walks, playtime, feeding schedules, check-ins, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals if needed, potty breaks, playtime, attention, and plenty of affection based on their personality and comfort level. On walks, I prioritize safety, exercise, and positive interaction while paying close attention to each dog’s pace and needs. I also make it a priority to keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Exeter
Emily was very kind and thorough in following my numerous asks and the cats seemed to take right to her. I have an easy younger male cat (Grey) and an older female cat with medication requirements. Emily ensured all meds were delivered (topical ear cream, two pills, and an oral liquid medication) and I couldn’t have felt more secure while I was away for the weekend!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Exeter on Rover is $24.42 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 2,221 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Exeter. 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 Exeter 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 Exeter. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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.
