“Kristen has been amazing with my animals. She always keeps me updated when she visits and you can tell by the pictures she truly cares for my animals. She is my go to girl when I need help!”

About: I love dogs. They're the best! I've cared for dogs of all sizes. From a Maltese to an English Sheepdog. All Different in their own special ways and loved them all. We currently have a 2 year old mixed breed from Louisiana named Beau, who loves to run, play, swim, hike and cuddle. He's a sweet boy. My schedule is very flexible and easy to adapt to you and your pet's needs. I have a 2 year old mixed lab and we love to hike in the woods and mountains or go for long walks in town. He has daycare twice a week to play and socialize with other dogs. I have a fenced in backyard at home and am very comfortable caring for your dog in your home the way you prefer. Please let me know if they have particular leashes, harnesses or treats they prefer when I visit. I'd love a quick meet and greet first to make sure your pup is happy with me.

About: I had a pet dog growing up, and I have frequently dog-sat for my parents. I now find myself under employed and looking to make some extra money while spending time with dogs! I'm currently working part-time, with the option to work from home, so I am extremely flexible. I live in downtown Concord within walking distance of 3 parks, so near constant access to the outdoors is a bonus! I live in an apartment that allows dogs of all sizes and breeds. I do not have a fenced yard, but I do live on the ground floor and have a lead attached to my deck for when I'm hanging out on the deck I also have a pet cat, so ant dog staying in the house would need to be cat savy.
“So grateful to have found Caroline! She's taken care of my girls multiple times now and is always great at communicating and letting me know how they're doing. It feels great to not have to worry when we're away, Caroline is so wonderful and takes amazing care of our babies as if they're her cats. Thank you so much!!”

“I highly recommend Leilani! She is reliable, professional, and genuinely care about the well-being of my dog. Communication is excellent, and I always receive updates and photos, which gives me peace of mind while I'm away. My dog is always excited to see her and comes home happy and well-exercised after every walk. It's clear she has a real love for animals and treat my dog as if it were her own. I couldn't be happier with the service and would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”

“Highly recommend Tori. My wife and I found ourselves needing someone to check in on our pup last minute and Tori was willing to help. She was extremely flexible on timing, communicated often with us and a fantastic job with our dog. We will definitely go with Tori again.”

“Andrea was very nice and had excellency communication. On top of that she was able to get Tucker in last minute (the next day). For sure recommend using Andrea for your furry family.”

“Hannah was wonderful with our two kitties. She came over a day early for a meet and greet and our kitties warmed to her really quickly. She was very communicative and sent great updates. We loved having Hannah as our sitter and will definitely use her again!”

About: I have been caring for pets (of all kinds- dogs, cats, birds, reptiles) for as long as I can remember, whether they be my own or my friends and family’s. I’ve done petsitting professionally through River and similar apps for about 7 years now. I have several regular clients in the area and I just love being a part of so many pets lives in this way!! :) I’m currently working full-time in downtown Concord, but I have some flexibility with my schedule and I am more than happy to work with you to find an arrangement that works best for everyone. I can offer mid-day potty breaks or work remotely when needed to ensure your pets are well cared for & happy. I also offer a rate reduction of $35/night if we find that additional drop-ins are needed. I’m an experienced house sitter and I take respect & privacy seriously. I’m very clean and make it a point to leave every home even better than I found it. I treat every home- and every pet- exactly as I would want someone to treat my own.
About: I have dog sat and walked dogs for friends, family, and neighbors for the last eight years and approximately two years ago adopted my American Bully, Cane Corso mix named Clementine. I even trained her to be a therapy dog through a lot of training and education. I am comfortable working with rescues as well. I love working with all breeds, but specifically I love working with bully mixes too!! I am comfortable with medication administration, as well as working with dogs that have recently had surgery. My dog had TPLO surgery and took six months to recover so I’m willing to support in that process as well! I also have experience working with rescue dogs. I currently work full-time as a social worker, but I am looking to help with pet sitting on the weekends or dog walks earlier in the morning. In my home, my dog is on a strict schedule which includes brushing her teeth twice a day, administering medication in the morning, a structured walk and enrichment. For your pup, I can do whatever is needed!! my dog is also crate trained, and has been training to be a therapy dog. I am comfortable with dogs that are reactive to other dogs as well. I am able to do boarding in my home but your dog would have to be comfortable with my dog so we would have to do a meet and greet. I do not have a fun fenced in backyard, but I live on a rail trail and take my dog on walks there often. I am also comfortable with dropping in visits, walks, and overnight pet sitting.
About: I am a veterinary technician at VCA CAVES, and my love to care for animals doesn’t stop when I am off the clock! I am CPR certified for animals, and I am confident I can care for your fur babies the way you would. I work 4 days a week caring for animals, come home and care for my own little doggy, and the remaining 3 days are spent doing school work, so I have time to spend loving on more dogs and cats! I believe in treating my pet as if she were part of the family, I don’t leave them outside in cold/hot weather, I keep them off hot asphalt, and apply safety whenever handling my own pet, and will treat yours with the utmost care and respect.
About: Hi! I’m Katie, a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether it’s a long walk, or playtime, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust, so I make sure to provide updates, photos, and plenty of love while you're away. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely passionate about making pets feel happy and safe. I’d love to meet your furry friend and help care for them however I can! I just graduated college a few weeks ago. I currently have full availability this summer, because my job does not start until the fall. Any time will work for me. I make sure my dog is well fed, hydrated, and goes out to exercise. We go on morning walks everyday and make sure they are healthy. I love to go in the yard to throw a frisbee.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very young, starting with our family dogs as well as walking or sitting for family friends throughout the years. I tend to the individual dog’s needs to ensure a positive experience built on trust, respect and fun! I work from home and my schedule allows for flexibility. I have the availability to be free during week days. I am also an avid walker and love to go on walks to explore new places. I focus on the individual needs of that animal to meet them where they are at. I am able to understand animal body language and act accordingly.
About: I am a huge animal lover. I have raised six chickens and loved them like family. At the Pumpkin Wall Farm in Derry, I volunteer with rescued barn animals. I am more than welcome to keep your cat, teacup dog, or small animal company while you are away. Your little ones will be fed, played with, and cuddled. While I don’t specialize in grooming or medical administration yet, I am excited to learn and follow any procedures your pet requires. My schedule is astonishingly flexible. If you need someone at the last minute, I am here for a quick drop-in. I am available Monday through Friday. Note: My availability varies around Sundays and major holidays. Your cuddle-buddies will always be kept in a clean, safe, and enriching environment with me. Litter boxes and food stations will be kept pristine throughout the day. Places where your pet can easily get lost will be checked such as: cabinets, closets, tight spaces and wires. Pets are leashed and supervised on our fun outdoor trips.
About: Ive lived in NH all my life. I’m married and we have a three year old son. I decided to take on this new journey because I love dogs and animals in general. I have 2 wonderful dogs who are my babies and I love them very much. I’m flexible and reliable. I just enjoy being with dogs. Dogs are such loyal companions always there for you through everything. My favorite part of my day is coming home to see my dogs, tails wagging. I promise your pooch won’t be disappointed in our visits, I look forward to visits etc! Looking to take on as many clients as I can. Afternoons and evenings work best for myself and my family. I would be willing to do some occasional night sitting, weekend sitting if it works with my schedule. I would follow owners instructions and routines for each pet. Assuring that each pet is properly cared for. I look forward to taking care of your pets!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hopkinton
Celina has watched my cats several times and always does an amazing job. After one of my cats was diagnosed with diabetes, she took extra care to give him insulin and was very patient with him. I really appreciate how good she is with my cats and how much effort she puts into helping them feel comfortable when we're away.

Celina is a true professional and lover of animals! She was so accommodating and dropped in on my dogs to make sure they were okay during the day. They immediately loved her during the meet and greet, and I know they’ll be looking forward to their next visit with her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hopkinton is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $34 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 989 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hopkinton. 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.
