“Absolutely. I’d make it a little warmer and more polished while keeping it natural: Emily did an amazing job taking care of my two pups while I was away for two weeks. She was very communicative whenever something needed my attention, but was also incredibly independent and trustworthy in caring for them. It was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. I would absolutely recommend Emily!”
“I trust her with my dog and two kitties - that says it all! I can see in all the photos she sends that they love to see her when she cares for them! She even made sure to clean up messes the kitties made on the rug while I was traveling. Her honest and timely communication is very appreciated. Highly recommend Madeline!”
“Abby was absolutely amazing with my puppy. She followed instructions, took initiative and truly cared for my pup like her own. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a reliable responsible punctual caring pet sitter.”
“Breanna is amazing, very caring knowledgeable of dogs. She is very trustworthy,And caring. She did drop in for my two dogs while I was on vacation. I would definitely use her again.”
About: As a former veterinary receptionist, I’ve had 3 years of experience helping care for dogs and cats. Now pursuing art, I’m looking to continue to help take care of pets. I’m currently working on pursuing my art career, so my schedule is pretty open for drop ins or walks. I’m occasionally available for in-house pet sitting. In the part few years, I’ve developed a real heart for animals. Pet care is so important, giving a voice to those who can’t speak.
About: Due to my current employment situation, I have lots of schedule flexibility to suit the needs of your animals. I have been caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes since I was young and have done it on a more regular basis over the past 8 years. I have grown up always having dogs and cats so I am extremely familiar with caring for animals. Even the most skeptical dogs quickly trust me for my loving nature. I am always prepared to pay full attention to any animals in my care and to respond to any challenging situations that may come up. I truly love animals and am very excited at the opportunity to help others with the care and support of their furry friends! Your pet’s day will look exactly like it does when you’re with them! I pride myself on helping dogs to keep their routines. I am happy to offer whatever enrichment activities we discuss for your pet such as car rides, dog parks, play dates etc but also understand these are not for every dog so will never do anything we didn’t explicitly clear. I am very adamant about understanding the ways you keep your pet safe at home. I am extremely cautious when coming and going. I keep an eye on all pets in yards, even when they don’t typically require this. In 15 years of dogsitting, I have only had one dog slip away from me and handled it quickly and safely.
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life for friends, clients, family, and neighbors. I’m someone people trust to take great care of their furry family members. I’m a big animal lover and would love to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away 🐾 I currently work a full time job where I am onsite in Quincy 2 days a week. I have flexibility during the work week on days that I am remote and I am open on weekends!!! When watching others animals, I’m able to do whatever is needed to keep your animal comfy and happy. Daily walks, giving medications, giving treats, etc. Anything to make sure they are happy!
About: Hi! I am a special education teacher who owns a friendly Bichon-Poo named Henry who gets along well with other dogs. I would love to host your dog in our home during your next vacation. Your dog or puppy would receive 24 hour care & love. We have a very large fenced in yard & a comfortable, dog friendly house. I am available on weekends (Fridays after 3:30 only), all summer, & most school vacations. I can even come to your home if you prefer. I'd love to hear from you!
About: I have watched and cared for friend's pets from rabbits to kittens to large dogs. They have trusted me to spend the night with them. I am available for full time pet care, as of now, and would love to fill my days with any services you may need today. I have a fenced in yard for safety and live in a pet friendly neighborhood. I have a safe and friendly home environment for pets many parks nearby for easy walking and playing for pets.
About: Dogs have been a big part of my life forever. I have a Golden Retriever named Mabel, who I’ve raised since my sophomore year of college, so I understand the daily care, patience, and attention that every dog deserves. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter, where I regularly walked dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. That experience taught me how to confidently handle energetic dogs, shy dogs, and those who need a little extra patience. I’m active, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your dog needs a long walk, plenty of playtime, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I treat every pet like they’re my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how they’re doing. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. While I do travel for work about 30% of the time, I keep my Rover calendar up to date and only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet my full attention. When I’m available, you can count on reliable, responsive care and plenty of updates so you have peace of mind while you’re away. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so your pet can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any special requests. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your pet. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and secure, and treat your space with the same care I would my own. You’ll also receive regular photo and text updates, so you’ll always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have loved every dog I’ve ever met, no matter what they were like. My love for dogs is endless, I have owned multiple in my life and have taken care of many pets from friends and family. I’m also someone who loves to walk, no matter the weather. I would never pass up the opportunity! I would be a perfect fit for your dog 🐶!!! I am currently a college student on winter break, so my schedule is pretty open! I do have a dog of my own to take care of, but other than that I will be very likely to be able to help out you and your dog! I am not currently able to care for any pet at my own home, but I am completely able to go to your home and take care of your dog there! I am super open to whatever needs your dog may have or whatever may be happening at your home. No matter what, I’ll make sure your dog is safe and cared for!
“Maggie dropped in, let our dog Mylo out and played with him for half an hour. He’s usually a shy dog but he had absolutely no issues with Maggie and loved his time! We will definitely use her services again and would recommend her to anyone in the area!”

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 Hanover 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.
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 Hanover 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Hanover with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
