“Elly has been absolutely wonderful with my pup Mumby! He is always in such a good mood when I get back after she spends time with him. Elly has been reliable, great at communication prior to and during the pet sitting. She always sends me the cutest pics! Elly is my go-to if I need someone to watch Mumby!”
“Veronica was fantastic! The girls really loved her and she kept us updated with pictures. It was a great comfort to know the girls were in such good hands. We and the girls look forward to you babysitting in the future.”
“Mikayla was fantastic with watching our two dogs. A true trooper as we have a puppy Aussie with a bundle of energy & an early morning routine. We will definitely be using Mikayla again on future sitting needs. She’s attentive, caring and sends many updates during the stay. Even went as far as walking the dogs on numerous occasions too.”
“Sarah took great care of our pup for a long weekend. Our dog seemed happy and well taken care of. We got a lot of updates and pics and easy communication. Our apartment was cleaned up and everything was very tidy when we returned. We will absolutely have Sarah back in the future as needed”
“Callie was terrific with our 8 month old puppy! He is in his teenage phase and can be difficult - but Callie did an excellent job keeping him entertained, out of troubled and most important comfortable/relaxed. We will be repeat customers, for sure!”
“Hollyn stayed at our home and watched our boys while we were out of state! We couldn’t be happier with the communication and how responsive she is while we were gone! She’s lovely and we will book with her again”

“Keirsten did a wonderful job caring for our Golden Retriever and 2 cats while we were away! We returned home to find everyone happy and well cared for, and we were glad to find that Keirsten was extremely respectful of our space and left everything clean, even washing our sheets for us! Thank you!”
“Melissa was so friendly and amazing at keeping our minds at ease while being away from our fur babies!! She goes above and beyond to make everything comfortable for them and tries to give them the best experience she can while with them. Would definitely book again in the future!!!”
“Shayna was awesome! My 9 year old lab was comfortable with her from the moment they met each other during the meet & greet. She did a 3 night stay in our home and cared for our pup and 2 cats and sent texts and picture updates each day/night showing they were in good hands. We will definitely be rebooking her for future sittings! Thanks again Shayna, you rock! I’m sure my pets miss you already”
About: Experienced, Detail-Oriented Sitter & Trustworthy Home Care. Reliable, Punctual, and Dedicated Care for Dogs and Cats. Your Pet’s Favorite Neighbor: Trusted Walking and Sitting Services. My schedule is extremely flexible, which means your pets will rarely be left alone. I'm available throughout the day for regular walks, playtime, and constant supervision. Whether it's morning dropins or midday checkins, I can easily adapt to your pet's routine. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space and your animals with the utmost respect. I follow your exact feeding and care routines, keep doors and gates secure, and provide plenty of updates and photos so you always feel connected. Safety is always my top priority. I keep a watchful eye during outdoor activities, ensure toxic foods or hazards are completely out of reach, and strictly adhere to any crate training or dietary rules you have in place for your pets.
About: I’ve always had animals growing up! I’ve had the privilege to take care of a couple dogs throughout their whole life. So I’ve got experience tiring out puppies to lounging with older pups. I’m excited to take care of your pups and whatever their needs may be! I’ve also have experience taking care of animals professionally as a hand in a pet resort. I currently work for myself landscaping so I have the agency to make my own schedule. Happy to try to accommodate days or times that work better for you. I try to include my dogs in all physical activities if they’re feeling up to it. This usually looks like hiking or walks. I have an older dog so I have a good gauge for feeling out when he’s up to it. I’m happy to meet your dog/animal where they’re at and give them the care they need.
About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats in my household throughout my lifetime and I love getting to know all their different personalities. I currently have an open schedule whenever my service is needed! I can match the pet's vibe and have no issues giving as much attention as needed. I will follow all requirements as requested to make sure your pet has the best experience with me as their sitter. Ex: walks, ensuring they are fed and taken care of, and taking them outside to the bathroom when needed. I will provide attention and check in with the owner with updates and ask questions if necessary.
“Abigail watched my two pups for the first time and was able to win over my skiddish dog who typically takes a while to warm up to people. She was prompt with replies and even walked the dogs!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have hands-on experience caring for them through family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic bathing, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and always try to understand each pet’s personality so they feel comfortable and relaxed with me. I’m lucky enough to do pet care full-time, so your dog or cat will be my main priority all day long. Since I don't have a typical 9-5, I can basically be a 'stay-at-home pet parent' for your furry family member. My day usually starts early with a long walk and breakfast, followed by plenty of playtime and snuggles throughout the afternoon. I’m rarely away from the house for more than a quick errand, so your pet won't be left alone for long stretches. I really pride myself on keeping their routine exactly like it is when you’re home. I specialize in caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, where they feel most secure. I’m extremely respectful of your space and follow all house rules and safety protocols to the letter. Because I don’t have a fenced yard at my own place, I prefer to focus my energy on yours—ensuring doors are always locked and pets are never left unsupervised in unsecured areas. I prioritize high-quality one-on-one time, follow strict feeding and medication schedules, and love sending daily photo updates so you can see how much fun we’re having!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Goffstown
This weekend trip was our first since moving to NH in 2023. Prior to that, after a disastrous experience with a housesitter (not Rover) in 2018, we did travel but to places where we could take our dogs. I share this as background to explain my apprehension for having another house-sitting experience. I am happy to tell anyone reading this that Liam restored my faith that there are caring and diligent housesitters for people like me! Liam's caring manner and awareness of potential problems (he let me know that one of our dogs had not eaten yet; knowing my dogs, I suggested a solution and said dog ate everything!) Additionally, despite our telling him we were enroute home and he could leave, he chose to wait until we returned home! I would say this was above and beyond providing great service!! If you are PARTICULAR like me about who takes care of your fur babies, I would highly recommend allowing Liam to sit for you!
Charlotte, is truly exceptional. She is a kind and caring person. She’s organized and brings her best to anything she undertakes. She took excellent care of our dog, who requires a good deal of medical attention. She was available when we needed her on the spot, adjusting her plans to be able to support us. I feel very fortunate that we have been able to use her and develop a relationship with her over this past year.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Goffstown is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $41 and $81 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 854 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Goffstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Goffstown 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 Goffstown 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.
Tip: 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 Goffstown 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Goffstown. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
