About: I am an experienced and passionate animal care professional, striving to build positive, trusting, and flexible relationships with each unique animal and person I work with. I have over a decade of experience working in animal shelters, in zoos, with wildlife, and with pets! I especially love to work with animals that have more involved behavioral/training/medical needs. Please ask if you would like to check out my professional website for more information! My schedule is flexible! I am open to daytime and overnight care on weekdays, weekends and holidays, including walks, drop-in visits (once or multiple times per day), and grooming/medical/behavioral assistance. I can only accommodate one furry family at a time for overnights so book early! I prefer to meet and care for pets in their own homes and neighborhoods, as this ensures they are most comfortable and reduces stress. I employ positive reinforcement strategies with all of the animals I work with, and allow the pet to take the lead in what they are comfortable with and ready for. Occasionally I will watch pets in my own home (especially smaller animals with enclosures).
“Susana eased my mind while I traveled the weekend of the nor'easter! She communicated regularly with sent photos and videos and spent extra time with Orion and Maia. The cats love her, and their opinion is what matters most 😺”
“We had Olha drop in on our 3 yo. dog while we were out for an extended period, and everything went very smoothly. Olha was very personable and accommodated our schedules when it came to getting to know our dog, her routine, and visit expectations, offering to do a virtual Meet & Greet before the visit rather than in-person. Our dog warmed up quickly to Olha and had a lovely time. She was very sleepy upon our return, so got plenty of exercise even in just the hour Olha stayed over. I definitely recommend Olha to watch your pup. We'd happily request her services again.”
About: I've been taking care of all types of pets for 15 years and give them all the love and comfort they can handle. From puppies to seniors, pet meds administration, etc. Couch potatoes to marathon walkers, all are welcome :) I work from home with a flexible schedule for all types of pet needs, from walks to boarding to house visits. I offer pick up and drop off for your furry friend. I have a fenced in yard with sun/shade and two floors that accommodate all types of pet personalities. They can be together or separate from others.
“Daniella was the best person I have chosen to look after my dog when I was away for 7 days. I have a small dog ,he is scared with strangers but she knows how exactly to handle him. She built the trust and they became friends. She did a lot during the 7 days drop-in-visit, such as cleaning the dog’s pee pads, walking him, playing with him,giving treats, changing water and food. My dog loves her company and even make friends with her cute little chihuahua. Absolutely amazing!! Definitely will book again in the future .”
About: Hi! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. In addition to dogs, I’ve cared for cats, fish, rodents, and farm animals, so I’m comfortable working with a wide range of pets and their unique needs. I’m confident handling pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—from high-energy puppies to more anxious or senior animals who need a gentler approach. I always aim to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m very communicative and will keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines, training preferences, or care instructions to keep things consistent for your pet. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or overnights, I treat every pet like they’re my own and genuinely enjoy getting to know their personalities. If your dog stays with me, he/she will be in great company with my resident dog, Kimchi! For days that I’m available to provide doggy daycare services, I work from home and I’m able to accommodate your dog’s specific scheduling needs, including potty breaks walks, and medication routine needs. I have a friendly resident dog who will keep your dog good company while he or she stays with us. I always follow your care instructions and will never take dogs off leash. I am located in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of space for nice, long walks.
About: I have my very own rescued golden retriever/hound mix named Goldfish. He’s taught me the importance of patience, slow introductions and the power of treats! I have experience working with large breeds, anxious dogs, reactive dogs and senior dogs with special needs. I’m also a runner so I’d be happy to take your high energy pups on a run! I have a flexible schedule since I work part time. I will be available to hang out with your pups most days of the week! I’m attune to dog body language and make sure to read their cues when approaching them. I’ll be sure that they’re secure when entering and exiting a home. When we’re on walks, I’ll make sure that they don’t get into things when they’re not supposed to and be cautious of other dogs and people.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds for 25 years. Walking, hiking, bathing, brushing, and administering medications. And of course, the naps we share after our hikes! I currently work nights and weekends serving at a restaurant about a 10 minute drive from my house! After work, I tend to head home for evening. My days are free and I can always come home to your baby! If we have company, my cat keeps to herself. She's an older lady and enjoys occasional play but mostly naps. If I am working out of your home, we will be sure to go over an extensive check-in list together so we are both comfortable.
About: Growing up with dogs in our household fostered a deep love and appreciation for dogs and animals in general. Over the last few years I’ve gained valuable pet care experience. I enjoy connecting and providing special care to all creatures. I’m currently living in Beverly and working remote. I’m able to do walks, check-ins, and pet sitting mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m flexible and ready to provide exceptional care to your pets. Caring for pets in your home is no different than caring for children in your home. A high level of attention is non-negotiable so maintaining a solid walking, playing, and feeding schedule is of the upmost importance. Cuddles, belly rubs, and scratchies are also of the upmost importance.
About: I have had animals and cared for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Family and friends have relied on me to watch their animals both in their own homes and at my home. My family dog, who is now 16 years old, has been cared for by me several times in the past. I recently finished graduate school and am seeking out a full time job, and at the moment I have plenty of free time to spend with and care for your animal. I am flexible to make my schedule around the needs of your pet. I have nice grassed areas and large side walks near my apartment where I can walk your dog. My apartment is safe and comfortable for long term stays.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life: family pets, friends' dogs, neighbors' dogs. I love being outside, whether that's a nice walk around the block or a trip to the dog park. Puppy or senior dog, I'm happy to meet each pet where they're at. Animals give us so much patience and kindness I just try to return the favor. I'm currently studying nutrition at Merrimack College, so I have plenty of time to sit your pets before and after classes. I'm available to sit your pet on the weekends as well. I like to make sure every animal is comfortable and feeling safe in their own space, I give them time to warm up to me. I show consistent care and attention to each pet and focus on their individual needs.
About: Hello all animal lovers! My name is Olivia and I’ve been dog sitting for family and friends for about 3 years now. I’m new to the rover app but I currently sit some of my friend’s pets which are a Pomeranian, Doberman, bichon frise and pit bull puppy. I am looking to gain more experience in the animal field as I am going to school in the fall for animal care specialist. I’ve just begun volunteering at an animal shelter in Salem to lend a helping hand to all the animals that are waiting to go to there furever homes! I have such a passion and unconditional love for all animals I hope you will give me the chance to help care for your fur baby!
“Britney is sweet and high energy so if your dog is high energy she's a great pick! She's a little more flexible with her schedule but she makes every visit fun and I genuinely felt like my girl was far less lonely with Britney around.”
About: I am a full-time (remote) student at UMass and dog-sitter extraordinaire! I have a lot of scheduling flexibility and I don’t mind last minute bookings. Try me. I am a student and I study remotely so have the flexibility to accommodate daily visits & drop-ins for walks, feeding/potty breaks, playtime or overnight stays. Familiarity and routine are important for your pet in your absence. I prefer to come to your pet in their home for play, feeding, walks etc. so they won’t suffer unnecessary anxiety or stress from an unfamiliar environment, whether it be for drop-ins or overnight stays.
About: I've never owned a dog but I've been helping friends and family to take care of theirs. I'll make sure your pup stays healthy and entertained. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate same-day requests. I can pick up your per if necessary. Please don't hesitate to reach out for any questions. My one-bedroom apartment in a pet-friendly building is perfect for a short stay. There's a lovely pond nearby which is perfect for walks.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I grew up around dogs, currently have a dog, and will probably die with a dog. I’ve also had a plethora of pets including cats, ferrets, parrots, iguanas, hamsters, hermit crabs, and even a sugar glider. Every pet is welcomed in my home. I work from home, so that means I’m pretty much home all day. If I have to leave the house, it’s usually for an a hour or two at most to go to the gym. I’m available any day of the week at any time! I have a yard in the back that is shared with just one neighbor. It’s not fenced, but definitely has room to play and walk around. Inside the home, we have a little old dog who sleeps a lot and will occasionally come out to play.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Lynn is $25
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lynn
Natali was fantastic with our 100lb rescue dog. Natali made our dog comfortable from day 1 which is quite a feat considering that our rescue is not particularly interested in people. In fact she's often skittish and may submission pee if scared but with Natali that never happened. She knows the right energy to bring around a rescue, she was on-time for every drop-in, she's quick to respond to messages, and she followed every instruction to a T. I would highly recommend Natali to anyone who needs a sitter
Highly recommend Erica as both a fantastic Rover and all around great/enthusiastic person. I left the country and had zero worries knowing she was checking in on my high energy, large breed dog. She went above and beyond by texting me off the app, giving me unsolicited updates around the clock, sending plenty of great pictures, getting my mail, you name it. You can tell your Rover is good when your pet still looks for them when you return, hah! Erica is good people. Will book again.
Gienna was amazing with our dog, Harley! She was incredibly thoughtful, caring, and attentive in her drop-in visits. Throughout the entire process-from booking and communication through her last visit of the day-she was prompt and made sure to provide very detailed updates. Our dog loved Gienna and we knew he was in very capable and caring hands! I could not recommend Gienna more!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Lynn is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 9,553 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Lynn. 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.
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 Lynn 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 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 Meet & Greet.
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 Lynn with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
