About: My name is Suzie and I am 30 years old. I have owned a dog all my life and currently have one dog named Moose. I have interacted with many different types of dogs and personalities. I am confident I can make you dog happy. I currently work at a Hospital 3 days a week, so I am home majority of the week. I have just moved to the North Andover area and would love to explore the area with your dog. I also live with my boyfriend who is usually around when I am at work. He owns a female Husky who is at my condo occasionally. I do not have rules about pets being on furniture or in the bed. I have dog beds and large crate for them, whatever the prefer. Please reach out to me if you have any questions. I am home 4 days a week from work. I am able to be home with your dog to feed it and take it out in a timely manner. I work 15 minutes up the road, so if necessary I can leave work to let the dogs out. I live in a dog friendly condo complex that I can take your dog on a walk and live near trails to walk also. I have an open door crate dogs can go into if they are feeling overwhelmed or need a safe place to sleep.
About: Since I was a kid, I was obsessed with dogs. I watched a lot of shows and read books about dogs. Rescuing my dog in 2016 changed everything — he showed me how to listen, observe, and understand what dogs are really saying. That's the level of attention and care I bring to every dog I look after. I'm a mostly remote full-time employee, so I can be pretty flexible if your pet needs a check in for attention or a walk and a potty break! When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow the established routine as closely as possible - feeding times, walk schedules and any specifics that the pet is used to. If a dog is allowed off-leash, I make sure all doors/gates are closed and secured. I pay attention for any changes in appetite, energy, or behavior and report them to the client promptly. I enjoy taking photos of pets, so I will also send photo updates! I also keep the place clean and respect any areas that are off-limits.
About: Your dog isn't a client, its family for the day every day! I know its hard to leave your pup behind, which is exactly why I treat every dog in my care exactly the way I treat my own. What you can expect: *Reliable on time walks and drop it's every single visit *Real time photo updated so you never have to wonder * A kind and caring environment from someone who truly loves to take care of pets * Open communication before, during and after every booking. Your pet deserves someone who shows up like they mean it and I DO:) I am also available to drop off and pick up from K9 camps and boarding. New to Reading but not new to loving dogs! I just moved here from CA and am looking forward to putting down roots in this community and what better way than through pets and people who make it their home! Animal Care is genuinely one of my favorite parts of life! I know how much it means to genuinely find someone you can truly trust. Weather its a walk or drop in I show up with my whole heart every time. Id love to meet your pup, and become a familiar caring face in their routine and yours! Your home and routine are respected completely during every visit-Im a guest in your space and I treat it that way. My background managing people and high expectation environments means I dont cut corners and stay calm under pressure and always following through on what I say I will do.
“Janelle was wonderful taking care of my two cats Olivia and Toby! She sent lots of pictures of the kitties during meal time, playing, and getting treats. I knew my babies were well taken care of left with Janelle!”
About: For the past few years now I’ve been a dog sitter for my family and friends, walking, playing, feeding, and cleaning up after them I can house sit, dog walk, and do drop in visits, Any time of the day Mondays to Fridays, And weekends if needed anything works. I get to learn pets usually routine. How many times a day to walk them, when and how to feed them, and their bed time.
“Rosemary was an amazing caretaker for our two cats while we were out of town! She was always on time for check-ins, gave detailed reports of her visit & tons of photos. She went above and beyond caring for our cats (and finding them in their many hiding spots); we couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience.”
About: Ive taken care of dogs most of my life and owned one for 6 years. I’ve walked dogs big and small and my own has given me great experience with reactive dogs. I once worked as a kennel attendant for a local animal hospital which gave me experience with lots of different breeds and special feeding needs. I work full time so I am available evenings during the week, and anytime on the weekends when I’m not with my own furry friend I wont be offering any in home pet care services at this time. I live in a small apartment unit with a medium size dog
“Frances & Julia were great. They were responsive to our last minute booking request and communicative throughout the visits we scheduled over a weekend while we were away. The photos and videos they shared with us of our puppy showed how great they cared for him, and our dog was in great spirits when we returned. I would definitely recommend to fellow pet parents and re-book if we need care again.”
About: Ive taken care of my best friends dog Tucker , he is a very adorable golden retriever , and ive taken care of him by walking him, feeding him , and sleeping with him. I love giving him lots of belly rubs , cuddles , and of course kisses. Secondly Ive taken care of my boyfriends two dogs named Mabel and pebbles, they are both small dogs, and ive taken care of them by walking them , feeding them , and sleeping with them as well.

“Candi is a great sitter! We’ve booked her several times to come by and feed our kitty. She’s reliable, communicative, and a pleasure to work with. She’s our go to person. Thank you Candi!”
“Svetlana was great and went above and beyond. One of our dogs unexpectedly pooped in the house and she cleaned it up and even picked up the poop in the backyard (though we did not expect that of her!) she jumped in when our sitter cancelled last minute. Thanks again!”
About: As a teacher, caring for others, staying organized, and paying close attention to individual needs are part of my daily life. I bring that same level of responsibility and care to every pet I work with. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, as I grew up with dogs my whole life, and now, as an adult, I have been raising my own. I understand that every pet has unique routines and preferences. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, companionship, or simply a dependable person to check in on them, I will make sure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am reliable, communicative, active, have a flexible schedule, and I enjoy spending time outdoors. During the summer, my flexible schedule allows me to drop in last minute or spend quality time with your pet. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am a high school special education teacher and have summers off, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day and can often accommodate last-minute requests. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so caring for pets is a great fit for my summer routine. I am happy to help! I will care for your pet according to the instructions and routines you provide. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I will make sure those needs are met while keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and happy. It could be feeding schedules, medication, exercise, or specific preferences. I will follow your directions carefully and provide reliable and loving care every step of the way!
“Elizabeth was wonderful, kind, reliable, and very responsive. She was available on short notice, which was a huge help for us. She took great care of not only our cat, Nuggets, but also our 4 chickens! We felt completely at ease knowing our babies were in such good hands. We were so happy with her care that we have already hired her again for our next vacation. Highly recommend!”
About: I’m a dog lover looking to brighten up your pups days! Dogs are so much more than pets, they make our lives whole and they deserve to be treated with love and respect just like humans! I’m excited to care for other dogs and to have some company on walks. I work full time in marketing Monday-Friday 9-5, but I would love to care for and walk dogs when I have available time on nights and weekends. I understand the needs and safety of dogs and I will create a safe environment for your pets under all circumstances that you can trust.
About: I’ve cared for pets for my whole life, including cats, dogs, and exotic pets such as frogs, lizards and birds. I’ve also been trusted as a dog walker and cat-sitter by family friends, coworkers, and teachers. I hope to get the chance to meet your beloved pets! I’m a college student free for the summer, so I will have very open availability during the entire week! I am glad to make multiple visits if needed. I can easily handle your pet’s food, bathroom and comfort needs. This includes feeding and administering medications, taking your pet out for walks/bathroom breaks, litter box cleanings, keeping their surroundings tidy and returning them to a crate if needed.
“Lauren was fabulous! My dog loved her! She was very responsible and did everything I asked her to do. She sent me pictures everyday which I really appreciated. I’ve already recommended her to some of my friends. I’m trying to think of some other places to go so I can use her again. Even my elderly neighbor loved her because she took the time to talk with him.”

Michael, is great! He is punctual and has a great attitude. He watched our 150 plus pound Cane Corso. He kept it simple when some would tend to complicate caring for such a large breed. Michael made it work for us and he made my trip more enjoyable. He did a great job!
10 stars if possible. Jamie jumped in to help when I had a last minute emergency. She was great with my animals and communicating. I stopped worrying after Jamie’s first visit and report as it was clear that the animals were in capable and loving hands. Will ask (beg) her to look after my pets in a heartbeat

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lynnfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Lynnfield 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.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Lynnfield 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 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.
