About: I genuinely treat every pet like my own, with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. I have experience training puppies, helping with potty routines and basic commands, as well as caring for senior pets who need a little extra TLC, whether it’s administering medication or moving at their pace. I pay close attention to details, and I’m always happy to give updates so you feel connected and reassured while you're away. I’m currently a stay at home mom with my sweet 3 year old boy, Rottweiler pup Kaiya, and senior cat Madeline. I would be more than happy to share my time with your pets, giving them the love and attention they need while you’re away. I do my best to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication schedules exactly as you outline, and I always take time to play, cuddle, and keep them company. I treat your home with the same respect I’d expect for my own, clean, secure, and well cared for. I also provide regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away.
About: For nearly nine years, I've provided dependable, loving care for both cats and dogs. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, litter box cleaning, or simply giving extra attention and cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family members are in caring, reliable hands. I am currently a Grad Student working as a teacher. I will be able to do in visits during the morning, after I get out of work and at night after I get out of class. During holidays, I will be available and if any emergency pop up, let me know and I will help as much as I can. I am here, happy and willing to always help. My yard is not fenced in, but always watch my dog anytime he is outside. When he is outside, I am outside as well. My animals always hear positive praise from me for doing a good job with potty breaks, eating and are always rewarded with treats. I will not only watch your animals, but I will also make sure your house is exactly the same as you left or even better. I not only care for animals, I do clean up after.
“Kira took wonderful care of my cat while we were away! She checked off each box for his care, provided him some much needed snuggles, and sent awesome video and picture updates each visit. I would recommend Kira to any pet owner who is traveling!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for many years through both pet ownership and pet sitting. I currently have a Springer Spaniel and a Labrador Retriever, so I’m comfortable with active, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of exercise, consistency, and routine. I’ve also cared for family members’ cats and have experience providing overnight care for dogs while owners are away. As a teacher, I’m dependable, organized, and attentive to details, and I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m a teacher and currently work summer school from 9:00 AM–1:00 PM on weekdays, which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends if messaged. During the school year, I maintain a consistent schedule and am available before and after work for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, and I enjoy making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and currently have a Springer Spaniel and a Labrador Retriever of my own. I always follow the routines and instructions provided by owners, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and crate training if needed. Whether caring for pets in your home or mine, I provide plenty of attention, exercise, supervision, and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Janelle provided care for my doodle and is exceptional. Lola enjoyed her visits and I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was well taken care of from a professional pet sitter. Janelle is very accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommended and I will definitely continue to request her assistance in the future.”
“Allie was absolutely amazing with our Jack!! 5⭐️ without a doubt! She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable and updated us every step of the way during her visit. Would recommend! ❤️”
“Megan was awesome with our cat Izzie the 2 times we have used her. She sent photos every time she stopped. She gave Izzie lots of attention and love and went above and beyond with not only caring for our pet but by bringing in our mail and the packages our daughter had delivered to our house! I highly recommend her and we will definitely be reaching out to use her again.”
“Rebecca was absolutely incredible with our pup! She took excellent care of him and went the extra mile each visit to mix up his activities between walks and playing ball outside! Rebecca was timely, sent plenty of updates and truly cared about our pup! I highly recommend Rebecca for any of your pet needs!”
About: My entire life I have owned at least 3 pets. From foster cats, to my own cats, dogs, neighbors dogs, etc. I am a pet person through and through. I have a range of ages of animals I’ve taken care of - from dogs in elderly stages to 2 week old kittens. I am currently working from home Mon,Wed, Thursday, Fri. I’m constantly taking quick walks around the block during the day to keep my energy up and get outside. We have already cat sat in our apartment and everything went smoothly. We ensure doors are closed and locked at all times so there is a 0% chance of escaping. I live in between two parks as well which are always full of dogs to play in.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Manchester is $22
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Manchester
Megan did a great job with our cats while we were on vacation. Between having a picky eater and one who enjoys outdoor time she managed to give my cats everything they needed to feel cared for. Great attention was paid to their needs and I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!
Fruzsina was absolutely amazing with Ahmi! She sent detailed updates and photos after every visit, was so patient while Ahmi adjusted, and genuinely cared about making her feel comfortable. She paid close attention to Ahmi's behavior and kept us informed about everything. By the end of the week, Ahmi had really warmed up to her and was excited for their walks, which meant so much to us. It's clear she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. We felt completely at ease knowing Ahmi was in such caring hands. We would absolutely book with Fruzsina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and compassionate pet sitter!
Krista is absolutely wonderful! I have complete confidence in her which makes it so much easier leaving my special-needs, elderly kitty in her care. She gave my Mia lots of attention, and I appreciated the many pictures and info Krista shared after each visit. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again for any future needs!
I always love having Elyse take care of my boys. She’s so thoughtful to make sure that their health is at the top of mind by making sure to get video and photos of anything that looks odd. As a mom of a cat with diabetes and allergies, this makes it easier to leave them. Thank you!
We are so glad we found Lisa! She is absolutely excellent—reliable, trustworthy, and professional in every way. Her communication is great, sent texts and photos and we felt comfortable and confident having her in our home taking care of our cat. It’s such a relief to be able to go away knowing everything is in great hands. Highly recommend!
This is my first experience using Rover and I couldn’t be happier. Katherine has been wonderful with my anxious 10 year old labradoodle. His mid day check in session has made life so much easier. I don’t have to rush home from work worried that he has been alone all day. Communication has been great. I love the report cards. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Manchester on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 2,309 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Manchester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Manchester 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.
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 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.

- 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
