“Allison was very helpful in taking care of our two senior cats. Normally when we’re gone they’re very stressed out but we came home to two very relaxed kitties. Thanks Allison!”
“Courtney was the most caring and professional pet sitter we had so far. She looked after all the details and all those little specific things our cat had in particular. I highly recommend her services. Courtney hope to work with you again next year ?”
About: Former vet assistant and kennel worker who ran an animal care business specializing in horses, German Shepherd breeding, and compassionate pet sitting for cats and dogs. I maintain a regular work schedule but offer flexible pet sitting hours to accommodate your needs, providing reliable, attentive, and personalized care for your pets anytime. At my home, pets enjoy a secure fenced yard, horse stabling, and kennels for boarding. When visiting clients’ homes, safety and comfort in familiar surroundings are always prioritized.
“Alexis did a great job taking care of our cats. She was communicative, friendly, and completed the dop-in visits in a timely and thorough manner. We are happy to have found Alexis and will be repeat customers!”
About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities. As a lifelong pet owner, I’ve cared for puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, and animals with medical needs. I understand how important routine, patience, and trust are when it comes to pet care. I provide calm, attentive drop-in visits and dog walks, always following specific instructions for feeding, medications, potty breaks, and comfort routines. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, understood, and cared for while their owner is away. I am available for drop-in visits and dog walks on select weekdays, typically in the afternoon and evening. My current availability is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday between 3:00–7:00 PM. This schedule allows me to give each pet focused, reliable care without rushing, and I always confirm availability before booking to make sure I can fully commit to each visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including puppies, senior pets, and animals with medical needs. I always follow owner instructions closely, including feeding routines, leash guidelines, medication schedules, and household rules. I take care to create a calm, low-stress environment during every visit or walk. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. I treat every home and pet with respect, care, and reliability.
About: I have years of personal experience with numerous breeds of dogs that I have owned. Your fur family member will be in great hands! I also have sat many breeds large and same and have many references. My home is a nice quiet place for senior dogs and dogs with anxiety. I don't have any of my own personal pets and there aren't any small children. I only dog sit for one family at a time so your pet can get his or her own individual care. I also allow pets on furniture and in my bed at night. Each pet gets walked daily along with alot of play time to get rid of all the pent up energy. Lots of love and cuddles also!
“Alise was very punctual and attentive. She made sure to spend quality time with both cats and took care of the one’s medicine for me. She was able to accommodate my last minute request for a sitter. I would gladly book her again!”
“Hadlie did a great job watching our two cats. She was very communicative the entire time she was caring for them and very professional. Hadlie also went above and beyond helping to water our Christmas tree and shovel part of the drive while we were away. We are so appreciative of her willingness to help in all these ways! Highly recommend!”
“Brianna is a very engaging young woman — wonderful with our rescue dog Flora and confidence-inspiring. We are very comfortable having her care for our dog and our home while we are away.”
About: I’ve worked professionally as a horse trainer, wildlife rehabilitator, zookeeper, animal cruelty investigator and farm animal sanctuary manager. As of 2026 I now offer sitting and boarding for dogs and cats in my home or yours. In my home, your dog or cat would have the space exclusively to themselves as there are no other animals or kids in the house. I can also service horse farms including feeding, cleaning and overnight stays. I know how much trust it takes to leave your animals with someone else, and I don't take that lightly. I guarantee that your animals will feel safe and comfortable with me, and you'll rest easy knowing they're in experienced hands. I look forward to working with you! I work mostly from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, exercise, outdoor time in my fenced yard, and companionship without long absences. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable experience based on each pet’s personality and needs. In my home, dogs have a peaceful environment and access to my fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time. Because I work mostly from home and don’t have other animals right now, I’m able to give them consistent attention, companionship, and a relaxed setting. For cats, I have a private bedroom available for those who may feel uneasy at first or need their own space. The room includes a cat tower, cozy cubbies, and a full bed with soft blankets arranged into comfortable nesting spots. This gives them a quiet place to decompress and adjust at their own pace, while still receiving attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal feeding, exercise, and care routine so things feel familiar and low stress. I’m respectful of both the pet and the home, and I’m attentive to details like energy level, mood, and overall wellbeing. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is comfortable and doing well.
“Autumn took amazing care of my cat Ruby! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with, I would highly recommend her and would definitely have her take care of Ruby again!”
“Chelsea is a reliable and caring pet sitter who goes the extra mile when taking care of pets. She was able to help us on short notice and we felt very assured that our cats were in good hands. She also gives great updates on the pets and responds quickly whenever we contact her. We plan to schedule more pet sitting with her and I would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Aveline has been very helpful! She is an excellent communicator, asked good questions and took cute pictures of our pets while we were away. She really cares and did an excellent job. We highly recommend Aveline!”
About: I believe in individualized love, attention, and activity for each and every animal! I have two sweet cats at home who are my entire world. I also have 9 years of experience with my own dog (training included) and 3 years of experience as a dog walker. Comfortable with special needs, medication administration, etc. Available most weekday mornings and evenings. I work remotely several days of the week and may be available for mid-day visits depending on my schedule. Usually open availability on weekends. I will follow whatever safety protocol you have set for your animals, whether that be crating, baby gates, setting the alarms, etc. My priority is that you and your pet feel comfortable while you’re away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 673 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Manchester. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manchester. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
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.
