About: Hello! My name is Annika, and I am a high school teacher looking for extra time with animals. I currently own two dogs and a cat, and have owned many animals in the past. One of my dogs is a year old, so I have plenty of puppy experience. All of the dogs I have owned are over 60 pounds, so I also have experience with large dogs. I am also aware of the large spectrum of different types of cat attitudes there are. I am so excited to get some extra animal time in my life. Please reach out if you think I can help you and your pup/cat! I am a teacher with the summer off. I do have some obligations throughout the summer, but will be able to help out when I can. I am aware of the needs that many different types of animals need. I know that puppies need lots of stimulation, older dogs still need love, and cats need what they want when they want it.
“Sue was fantastic! Our dog Bailey, and two cats felt very comfortable with her. She even sent pictures! Excellent critter sitter! Looking forward to having her back again and would highly recommend her to others. Thanks Sue ???”
“Sarah was fantastic! She is friendly, reassuring, responsive and experienced. My dog definitely had fun (and might’ve learned a new trick) and my anxiety was at ease :)”
“Varalee was wonderful. I felt so at ease while I was away, she cared for my 8 year old cat Poppy. excellent communication & always provided very thorough report cards of her visits. she gave my cat a lot of attention & care! I could tell that Poppy was at ease when I returned & everything was very clean when I arrived home which I appreciate. I would book again.”
“Lily was hired to stop by and care for my two cats Sean and Master Jeremy while away on a trip. Lily followed all instructions and did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her services as a dedicated and caring cat sitter.”
About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was in highschool. I have taken care of 3 dogs at once and enjoy running around and bringing them on walks. I love to snuggle and give all my love to every pet! This will be my daily as well as weekly routine. Whatever anyone needs I am willing to be flexible to their pets and the families I have a fully fenced in yard with lots of room to run around. I have a loving lab that would love to have a playmate. However I also have two extra rooms and will be willing to separate the dogs for whatever reason. Anything to make your fur baby feel more at home
About: I am a Certified Vet Assistant who loves caring for your pups while you're away. I'm a Therapy dog owner, pup raiser for a service organization, and member of 3 rescue agencies, I just love caring for pups. I have had extensive experience fostering pups from rescue situations and helped them adjust to a loving home so they are adoptable into a forever home. I will exercise, snuggle, feed and can provide any medical support your pup needs so you can feel your furry family is safe! I'll leave you with a pup diary of all the things we did while you're away - I can even offer training tips if you'd like. I am always just a call away if you ever want to chat about how everyone is doing!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and career. I currently manage a veterinary hospital and have experience working alongside both general practice and emergency veterinary teams. As a pet parent to a nervous, reactive dog, I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. Whether your pet loves adventure, playtime, quiet companionship, or requires a little extra patience and understanding, I’ll make sure they receive attentive, compassionate care tailored to them. Currently working Full time and looking to do this as a side job. I would prefer dogs that are close to me to ensure I can do as many walks as possible. Working in the Vet Med field has taught me how incredibly important safety is. I follow the owner’s instructions to the tee and will put the pets safety as a top priority on all our walks.
About: I have always loved animals and grown up with them. I have experience with all species of animals and many breeds. I currently have a very friendly and lazy rescue pit of my own. I am reliable and flexible and would love to help care for you fur babies. I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes and have a vehicle large enough for most dogs (a Ford Escape for reference). I am understanding of people’s beeds and changing schedules so you never have to worry if something comes up or changes. I have a pretty free schedule and love going on walks. I also have experience with cats, small pets, and farm animal such as cows or horses. Willing to work with all. Thank you. I work as a farmhand and knitting instructor for children. I’m very lucky that this allows me many open hours. I am available Tuesdays after 2; Wednesdays prior to 130 Thursdays prior to 130; Fridays prior to 1. I am also available for evening after 6 on all weekdays. I am willing to do occasional weekends. I will not be offering my own home for care due to stress on my own animals. I am willing to do check ins at a clients house.
“Thank you Skyla! It was great to be able to enjoy our day out knowing that the dogs were going to have a midday check in. Skyla was very communicative and jumped in to help with very little notice”
“Liz was very responsive and attentive when it came to booking and taking care of Otis. She was kind enough to come meet him ahead of the scheduled date so that he was familiar with her (he loved her right away). She did a wonderful job looking after him, and she texted with picture updates. We’d definitely book with Liz again as she treated Otis like her own pet.”
About: I’ve had a family dog my whole life, and my fiancé and I hope to have our own someday. Since we’re not able to right now, I get my dog fix through Rover! I’ve been active on Rover for over a year, doing walks, drop-ins, and house sitting pretty consistently. I love getting to care for all different kinds of dogs and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I work full-time Monday–Friday from 8:30–4:30, with a lunch break where I can run home if needed. I’m always available on weekends and usually spend that time going on long walks, so I’m happy to include pets in my weekend plans! I treat every pet like my own! I follow their routine, give them plenty of attention and exercise, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.
“Seyla has been so great with our puppy! She is communicative, prompt and considerate. We know we're leaving our pup in good hands when Seyla is taking care of her. We plan to continue to use her on a regular basis for drop-ins and walks :)”
“Sarah was punctual and took wonderful care of Penny and Pepper (aka pippa). She put my mind at ease with regular updates and snapshots which I loved! I definitely recommend her and plan to book with her again.”
About: I’m a lifelong pet and dog lover with a 7 year-old female spayed lab, Ellie, of my own. I’ve cared for family, friends, and neighbor’s dogs for more than 25 years. My Ellie is very calm, friendly, highly socialised, and great with other dogs and children of all ages. I work from home and operate a licensed family daycare with success for more than 25 years. I have weekends off where I have plenty of time to take walks with my own dog and others. I am available for over night dog stays at that time also. My work area is separate, but I have a large fenced in yard with grass. My own dog plays with the children outside, but mostly stays upstairs when we are in. My Ellie often prefers the couch over her dog bed, and I’m fine with that. 😊 I have a completely fenced in backyard where the dogs get plenty of fresh air and exercise, but are never outside alone. My dog Ellie loves playing with other dogs and has a portable ‘doggy pool’ when it’s hot and plenty of shade. If your dog enjoys the comfort of their crate or special bed, feel free to bring them along.Home also has central air to keep your fury ones cool.All drop off and pick ups has to be by 7PM

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hyannis
Sharon is wonderful with Billy, my senior dog who has special needs. She has an instinctive ability to understand what he needs, even when he can’t communicate it clearly, and she cares for him with patience, compassion, and attentiveness. Billy requires more supervision than the average dog when he is awake, and Sharon fully embraces that responsibility. I can trust her to care for him and my home completely.
Varalee was wonderful. I felt so at ease while I was away, she cared for my 8 year old cat Poppy. excellent communication & always provided very thorough report cards of her visits. she gave my cat a lot of attention & care! I could tell that Poppy was at ease when I returned & everything was very clean when I arrived home which I appreciate. I would book again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hyannis is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $52 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 633 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hyannis. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hyannis. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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.
