“Sarah was communicative, flexible and personable. Our dogs took to her immediately and Sarah was able to watch them at our B&B for an extended period of time. Sarah sent pictures, kept us informed throughout the evening and prepared the dogs for our return!”


“Grace was amazing! She communicated with us and sent pictures during our time away. Our dogs were very well cared for and were exhausted when we arrived home. Would 100% use Grace again! First Rover user and I couldn’t have been more impressed with everything!”

“Morgan did a great job taking care of my little boy. She updated me with text messages and pictures everyday so that I knew how things were going and how my boy was doing while I was gone. I'll be sure to contact Morgan again when I need someone to watch my furry kid! She was a pleasure!!”

About: I’ve taken care of various dog and cat breeds to help out friends and family for years. I’ve had to follow specific instructions based on behavior and/or medical needs of the animal. I’ve been relied on for potty breaks, meal times, and a little activity. I work full time, however, I’m available for afternoon walks/care during the week. On weekends, I have flexibility with my schedule to include play dates, feedings, etc. I have a small indoor space to enjoy, as well as, a BIG unfenced yard. I prefer to use a leash when outdoors at all times unless I brought them to a fenced in area or are known to stay close to home.
“Great, consistent communication, sent photos of my Kitty daily, along with updates. My cat is very skittish around people but Sue was eventually able to pet her, which is a big win.”

“Hailey what a perfect and wonderful Pet Sitter for Kiki, my Doberman Shepherd, who is high energy and three years old.. She stayed overnight three nights and took great care of the house and the dog… she communicated with me all the time and sent me lots of great pictures of Kiki who has separation anxiety, but really well. Thank you, Haley!”


About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also foster dogs and work closely with a local rescue, which has given me experience helping dogs adjust to new environments, build confidence, and feel safe. I'm comfortable working with reactive dogs and have a solid understanding of basic training, so I can reinforce good habits and provide calm, consistent care during walks and visits. Whether your dog loves long adventures, leisurely strolls, or plenty of playtime and cuddles, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they're in caring, reliable hands. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I work evenings as a bartender, so I'm available most mornings and afternoons for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. My shifts are typically only a few hours long, which gives me plenty of flexibility, and I also have every other weekend off. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to and prioritize in my schedule. I always tailor my care to each pet's individual routine and needs. If your pet is staying in my home, they'll have the company of my friendly, well-socialized dog. Outdoor time is always supervised, and I can use a lead or crate dogs when appropriate for their safety and comfort. For overnight stays in a client's home, I would need to bring my own dog with me. She is well-trained, respectful, and gets along well with other dogs. I understand that this isn't the right fit for every pet, so I'm always happy to discuss or set up a meet to see whether it would be a good match beforehand. To make sure your pet has the best experience possible, I ask that owners let me know about any treat or food allergies, dietary restrictions, favorite toys, or anything they should avoid. I love following your pet's normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away.
“I never left my dog with anyone except my daughter and only overnight and she’s almost 12. I was anxious to do so and Teri reassured me she’d take good care of her. I got texts throughout my trip with photos. I missed her but was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was being taken care. I would recommend Teri (and Molly) and definitely would use them again.”

“Exceptional! Took time to get to know us and our 3 fur babies. Reliable. Knowledgeable about dogs. Great communicator. Cares very much about safety and care for the dogs. 100% Trusted her with our boys.”

“Here’s a polished version: Harley and Izzy loved her from the moment they met her. She made my time away completely worry free, knowing they were in the best hands. They were both so well cared for, loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I’m so grateful for everything she did for them.”

“Charles is the best! He took great care of my two dogs over a 9 day housesitting stay and came out best friends with both of them, including the shy one that takes time to warm up to new people. He left such thoughtful notes on how they did, made some really great judgement calls on the fly, and is just a great person to have around. I would absolutely book with him again.”
About: My partner, April, and I have been caring for dogs our whole lives. We have experience working with different ages, breeds, temperaments, and varying levels of special needs care. We began our training journey when we rescued our two german Shepards and trained them as our service dogs. Our girls, Maya and Sadie, have grown so much in these past years! Watching the progress is very rewarding, so we want to extend that same reward to you, your pup, and your family. At this time, we offer dog walking, drop ins, overnight stays and boarding. At this time we don’t have openings for scheduling training sessions, but if there are behavioral concerns, please let us know and we can discuss how to support your pup. We understand everyone works different schedules. Our schedules are very flexible and we want to make sure your pet is able to be cared for without time restrictions. We offer morning, afternoon, and evening hours. We will treat your pup like our own. We will discuss what is most important to you in regards to ensuring the visit is safe in their environment. It is important to let us know of any medical or special need cares ahead of time so we can properly educate ourselves first. We will discuss any routines to be followed and review safety measures to follow.
“Needed a sitter to watch my 5 month old puppy so I could enjoy some alone time on vacation...Olivia was available last minute and super accommodating! Mr. Brady was happily tired out and very content everytime I returned! My only complaint would be that she doesn't live in Worcester so I could hire her all the time :)”

About: I have cared for all types of dogs big and small, and have lived, trained, and babysat dogs since i was little! I love animals, and currently have a flexible schedule to be able to care for yours. I treat them as if they are my own, and will love them with every ounce i have! I will show up in any weather, and have no problems giving medication. I have no fears of any size dog, and am usually the one found with the dog rather than people at any gathering ha! I am super careful, super thorough, and very reliable. I currently do work, but with my schedule I have a lot of time available during the day and afternoons, some nights. I am lucky in that my schedule is flexible, and can do daily visits, walks, short/long term, and potentially overnights. I am able to do overnights with your dog at my house, or happy to come to you as well. I have a big fenced in yard, and live across the street from a giant beautiful park with trails and fields to play in. I have friends who live on my street who, if ever needed, are beyond trust worthy if your pup ever needs anything. My boss also lives next door! I also live right near two other parks, and beaches. I am in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks as well. I grew up with dogs my whole life, so my parents are also near by. Im also close to two animal hospitals
About: I have experience caring for lots of dogs. I can administer pills, trim nails, and clean wounds. I am able to tell if something is not quite right with your animal and let you know. I like to give puppies lots of play time and potty breaks. I am a part time bookkeeper. I have lots of flexibility and am easily available for any time day or night to care for your animals. When your animal is in my home, I will be with them to make sure they are comfortable. I will take dogs for walks and potty breaks per your directions. I will feed them according to the schedule you provide. Water will always be available.
“Kristin is absolutely amazing! From start to finish, she provided outstanding care for our dog, Bruce, and truly went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, safe, and comfortable while we were away. She was extremely professional and reliable—always on time, communicative, and proactive. Kristin sent regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. It was clear that Bruce wasn’t just being looked after; he was being loved. When we returned home, Bruce was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. Kristin’s dedication, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. We can’t recommend her highly enough—she’s our go-to from now on!”
About: I have over 10 years experience with sitting cats, dogs and other small animals. Most of my pet-sitting clients are repeat families I’ve connected with through the local community. I have experience with extended in-home pet sitting, including overseeing household upkeep while clients are away. I am comfortable administering any oral medications needed, with provided instructions and tips. I love keeping you updated with photos and videos while you’re away and making sure your pet is happy, relaxed, and thriving! I have a flexible work schedule to be able to stay with your pets, or visit a number of times through out the day, to help accommodate your needs. I have experience in others homes where the pets feel most comfortable, and usually have a routine I can help maintain while your away! I also will attend to any other home chores like house plants, small pets like fish, or any problems that arise I will be sure you are aware right away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and have done house sitting for 4 years. I love doing this kind of stuff. I can walk them, go for walks all that fun stuff. Im doing babysitting right now but can house sit whenever and can be with the dogs/cats whenever. I am always free to take them out whenever needed. I will watch pets in your home and or/ stay in your home for house sitting overnight. I will keep them safe and follow any rules.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Holderness on Rover is $92.13 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 187 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Holderness. 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 Holderness 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 Holderness 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 Holderness 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Holderness. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 85% 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.
