“Sheri dropped in several times over the course of 12 days to care for our 14 yo cat while we were on vaca. Great reports and pics. We appreciated all her care and support. Would hire again!”
“Mikayla was a champ today. She got both of my dogs to go outside where one of them is nervous around new people. She followed instructions well and did a great job. Very good communicator and folk lots of pics. Thanks so much!!!”
“We are so very happy with Cassidy and the pet services she provides. She's very friendly and genuinely seems to love dogs. She took some photos of our dog and kept us informed as to how he did when she did her drop-in visit with him. We are so happy we found her!”
About: I have lots of animals myself. 3 dogs, 4 outdoor rabbits and 3 guinea pigs.On the weekends I drag my family to go see puppies. I prefer dogs over most people. They make my heart happy. I’ve always had animals. My dream job is to have an animal sanctuary. I would love to help you with your babies! I currently work as a hairstylist. However I’m a mother of two and it’s getting quite challenging to work as far as I do with my life being more in this direction. My dream job is to have an animal sanctuary of my own so I don’t have to turn away any animal and can save them all. On the weekends I drag my family to see puppies. I would love to be able to cut down my full time job and get become more involved with pet walking/sitting. It will be good for the soul. I have lots of animals at home and small children so I probably wouldn’t watch anyone in my house right off the bat. But in their house I would love to cuddle, give treats, walk play and give all the love they need as if they were my own.
“Heather was an amazing sitter for our 11 yr old PORTY! Oreo loved meeting her and they hit it off immediately. I reached out to Heather for a drop in a few days prior and she was accommodating and was great about sharing messages and photos on her visit-Oreo loved her walk and we will certainly use her again!”
“Emily is great with my cat ! I was out of town for a few days and Emily checked in and set up the food and water while I was away. The pictures Emily sent were awesome to have a visual update of whet my cat was doing.”
About: I've been dog walking, dog sitting, and cat sitting for over 10 years and have owned both dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have a 1 year old dog, so I have recent hands on experience with puppies, including training reinforcement, exercise needs, and maintaining routines. In addition to my pet care experience, I work in healthcare, where attention to detail, reliability, communication, and compassion are essential every day. I bring those same qualities to caring for pets. Whether your pet needs a walk, overnight care, medication administration, or simply companionship while you're away, I will treat them as if they were my own. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member and strive to provide safe, loving, and dependable care for every pet I meet. I am looking for part time opportunities. I am a recently graduated healthcare professional looking for flexible pet care opportunities prior to my full time job. I ensure pets are kept safe. Making sure they are fed and cared for properly. I think walking dogs and interactive play time is important.
About: Pet care isn’t just something I do — it’s something I’ve lived my entire life. From hermit crabs and guinea pigs to dogs, cats, and even farm animals through veterinary science programs, I’ve cared for animals of all sizes, personalities, and needs. What truly sets me apart is that I respect animals for who they are. I understand body language, boundaries, and temperament — especially with cats, who require patience and trust. I don’t force interaction. I don’t rush visits. I create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels understood. Your pets aren’t just appointments on my schedule — they’re individuals, and I treat them like family. I currently work full time as a dental assistant at a small, local office. I am typically available evenings starting at 5:00pm, and free all day Friday- Sunday! My cats are truly my babies, and their happiness and safety shape how I care for every pet. We recently moved into a large townhouse specifically so they would have more space to explore — three full floors to run, climb, and play. Creating an enriching environment for them was important to me, because I believe cats thrive when they have room to move and feel stimulated. They even have their own dedicated cat room (yes — the spare bedroom belongs to them). It’s filled with endless toys, cozy spots, scratchers, and safe hiding places where they can relax or play whenever they want. Out back, they have access to a secure, fenced-in area on our private patio within an additional fenced yard — giving them safe outdoor enrichment while staying fully protected. I believe cats deserve more than just basic care — they deserve intentional space, enrichment, safety, and love. That’s the same level of thought and attention I bring to every cat I care for.
“Thank you Julian for looking after our sweet Murray!! Julian was excellent with our shy 5yr old tuxedo. He was fed twice a day and Julian was able to give him his eye drops. Julian was very communicative and sent in lots of pictures with each check-in. We knew Murray was in good hands- thank you so much Julian- we will definitiely use your services again!”
About: I'm happy to work with dogs of all walks and understand some dogs may need more time than others to get to know me. I'm experienced with training tools (crates/prong/ecollar) through working with a professional trainer with my own dog (a 3yo 80lb GSD mix), though respect owners' choices who prefer not to use them. My preferred relationship building style is through play and trust, putting dogs' safety and needs first. I currently work a full time 9-5 on weekdays. I'm available on weekends for drop ins and walks. 1-2 mile trail walks offered in the morning hours of summer and from dusk-dawn in other seasons. I often put the dogs safety and needs first and respect any boundaries you/your dog have. Aside from drop ins and a walk around the neighborhood, im very open (and love the great outdoors) to taking your pup on a short 1-2mi hike at nearby public dog friendly trails. My dog would love a hiking buddy if his vibes are right with yours!
“Sarah-Jane was a great care giver for our cat, Loki. She made sure Loki was fed, brushed, played with and cared for during our absence. Sarah-Jane precisely followed my care instructions and left our house key where we asked her to leave it. I highly recommend her for your pet’s needs.”
“Emily was so wonderful with taking care of our cat and dog! She provided great updates with lots of details and photos, and we could relax on our trip knowing our pets were getting lots of attention and love. 😊”
About: I have grown up around dogs and have one of my own. I work with dogs on a daily basis and have found that I enjoy being around all dogs and finding out their quirks. What they like, what they don't like, and how to have fun with them. I also do love cats as my household had no less than 3 when I was growing up. They can be absolute sweethearts or absolute chaos, but we all love them regardless. I can accommodate what I need to. I work 2 jobs but both are based around my preference. I am able to figure out what I need to in order to proper care for pets. I truly wish for animals to stay comfortable around me so I always try to build trust before doing anything with a dog or cat I do not know. I prefer it when I can get their true personality to shine and they feel comfortable around me.
About: My love for pets started 13 years ago when I got my first Samoyed during my freshman year of college. The following year, I welcomed a Husky into my apartment. After graduating, I became a cat owner as well and have cared for three cats over the years. Having lived with both dogs and cats for so long, I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m home most of the day aside from going to the gym. This gives me plenty of time to care for, play with, and spend time with your pets throughout the day. I have a spacious home with a large yard where dogs have plenty of room to relax and play. Depending on your dog’s preferences and routine, they can spend most of their time comfortably indoors or enjoy more time outside in the yard. I’ll always follow your care instructions and make sure they feel safe and comfortable.

I am grateful to Rover for a reliable pet care platform. I am even more grateful for Ardin as a reliable, considerate, thorough and compassionate pet sitter offering her time for the care of 2 needy cats in a recent absence. My experience here has been exceptional. Thank you, Ardin!
Ashley did an amazing job watching our big luv a dog. We hadn’t used a dog sitter in a couple of years but all our concerns were erased by the excellent care Ashley provided our big boy. She made sure he got lots of playtime, playing his version of soccer, which makes him so happy. We look forward to having Ashley care for our dog in the future- she does a fantastic job!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hollis is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $36 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 2,922 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hollis. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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.

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
