“Jessica was amazing! She took such great care of our two boys. We could see how excited they were to see her when she sent us the daily videos. We are so grateful to her and highly recommend her (except when we need her help) to everyone. Thank you J!”
“Susan took such great care of my little fur baby while I was away for the holidays. She kept me updated with her visits and I knew my little Kiwi was in a great, loving hands while I was gone. I highly recommend Susan if you want someone who truly loves dogs and who'll care for them like they're her own. I will be using Susan to car for my fur baby whenever I need to travel.”
“Ashley was great!! I got pictures & a report card every check-in. She was very attuned to my senior kitty. She is on some medication that can come with side effects and Ashley made sure to let me know what she was noticing! Definitely will hire again. She has a great attitude & even watered my plant while I was away! Thank you so much, Ashley!!”
About: I am a very pet-oriented person, having had cats and dogs in my life since I was small. I am empathetic to when pets need extra reassurance and attention, and go the extra mile to make sure my furry friends feel comfortable and well cared for! I'm always available to answer any questions or concerns, and am independently insured outside of the Rover Guarantee. I am currently working part time which enables me with a lot of flexibility and free time to meet your pet care needs. Chances are great I will be able to accommodate your pet visit or pet sitting schedule needs so feel free to reach out and let's get acquainted! I prefer to care for pets in their regular home space to limit their stress. I will be careful to follow all instructions and prefer written instructions for pet care and any light home care needs you have.
“Cammie was super sweet to my little dogs which made me feel better leaving them at home!! I felt totally comfortable with her in the house! Would highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! I’m a local mom, animal lover, and lifelong dog enthusiast! 🐾❤️ Our family sadly lost our sweet dog this summer, and while our hearts aren’t quite ready to welcome a new puppy of our own, we have so much love left to give! I would absolutely love the opportunity to care for yours! I’m offering dog walking, pet sitting, and check-in services for busy families, working professionals, or anyone who needs an extra helping hand with their furry family members. Whether your pup needs a neighborhood walk, a potty break, some playtime, or a loving place to stay while you’re away, I’d love to help! I know firsthand that pets are family, and I promise to treat yours with the same love, attention, and care that I would my own. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members! 🐶💕 I have a very flexible schedule for the most part. I am a real estate agent and a mom to twin boys who are in school full time. I can easily pop over to your home or have your dog to our house as well. My yard is almost completely fenced in except for our driveway. I’m happy to take your dog on walks as well. I am happy to let your dog run free inside at our home or crate. Whatever makes you feel comfortable.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—growing up with a variety of family dogs and a cat, I’ve learned how important it is to understand and honor each pet’s unique needs. I currently have one dog of my own: a 6-year-old mini Aussie/Heeler mix who struggles with reactivity and anxiety. These experiences have truly shaped my approach to pet care, emphasizing the importance of ongoing education and compassion. I dedicate time every day to working with my mini Aussie/Heeler and also bring in a professional trainer to help him thrive. I believe that every animal deserves patient, tailored care and that understanding their individual experiences makes all the difference. Although I don’t offer boarding in my home (to ensure my own dogs’ safety and comfort), I’d love to bring this same level of knowledge and dedication to caring for your pet in their home environment! I’m available all day and night on Wednesday, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. During these days, I’m fully dedicated to caring for your pet—whether that’s daily walks, playtime, or simply making sure they feel loved and secure. Because I structure my days around my own dogs’ routines—training, walks, and enrichment—I’m well-prepared to ensure your pet gets the same level of dedicated care and companionship in your home- Because I have a male dog that is highly sensitive due to reactivity, I don’t offer boarding in my home. I trust my dog, but I’d never risk another pet’s safety—so I prefer to provide care in your home, where your pet is most comfortable. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s usual schedule and rules—whether that’s structured playtime, daily walks, or quiet companionship for a senior pup. I know how crucial it is for animals to feel safe and secure, and I bring that same level of education, patience, and understanding to every pet I care for. I’d love to be a trusted helper in your pet’s life, making sure they’re healthy, happy, and getting the kind of care they deserve.
“Alli is excellent!!! Alli worked with us for 5 days straight, two times per day. She was on time 100% of the time and was excellent with our puppies. She took them for long walks and always asked if there was more she could do. Alli is very kind and easy to work with. She is also a good communicator. I highly recommend Alli and we will definitely have her back (often!)”
“Perri is the best! Our experience was so great. She took a lot of care in doing a sitting with our extremely shy and nervous two-year-old pointer mix. She knows dogs, asked the right questions, and we trusted her. Not only that, she’s super friendly and interesting as a person. Would totally recommend.”
About: I found my own dog for over 10 years. My previous job was at a doggy daycare. I am time oriented and affectionate under my care. I will be open and free on rotating weekends. I am typically off Monday & Thursday. I do have a day job from 8am-4:30 in Creve Cour. I can consider any other days if needed. I have a flexible schedule under communication to help care for your loved pets. Give me a call and we can talk in messaging and meet in person. I will keep tidy of the clients home. I will provide a safety net to all who is under my care. Daily updates if needed.
About: Hi, I’m Brie! I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes—from volunteering as a dog walker at the APA shelter to sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m also a college cross country and track athlete, so I love running with high-energy pups who need more than just a stroll. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or snuggles, I tailor care to each dog’s personality. With two dogs of my own, I know how important it is to find someone reliable, active, and loving. Your dog will be treated like family! Weekdays: Dog walking & drop-in visits Weekends: Overnight sitting & extended care Winter & Summer Breaks: Open availability for sitting, walking, and extended care Also available in Webster Groves Your dog’s wellbeing is my top priority. I create a calm, secure environment where pups feel at ease—whether we’re out for a walk or relaxing at home. I follow your care instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always prioritize safety on walks and during play. With years of experience and two dogs of my own, I understand how important trust is. I treat every dog like family, offering gentle guidance, positive reinforcement, and a space where they can thrive physically and emotionally
About: Hi! I’m Renata, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved at all times. I pay close attention to their needs, give lots of affection, and provide walks or playtime to keep them active and joyful. Your dog will also enjoy my large backyard, perfect for running, playing, and exploring safely. Whether it’s boarding in my home or daily walks, your dog will feel comfortable, cared for, and truly at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I’m available to care for your furry friend in the afternoons and evenings starting at 4:30 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. I’m free all day on Wednesdays and Sundays, so I can give your dog plenty of attention and playtime! My home is a safe and secure environment for dogs. I have a large backyard where your furry friend can run, play, and explore safely. I also have a 7-year-old Pug who is very calm, enjoys socializing with other dogs, and respects their space. I make sure every dog feels comfortable and confident while in my care, giving them love, attention, and plenty of supervision at all times.
About: When my Red Heeler was still with us she, taught me how to walk a high energy dog. If your pup is an eager walker, we’ll do just fine. An eager pup just has a world to explore. I also grew up with a Tea Cup Yorke. She loved to walk, but it was at her own pace. She was an incredibly wonderful dog to grow up with. She thoroughly enjoyed wrestling and playing with her rope. I’ll be sure to follow your preferences regarding how to care for your Dog. Thank you for trusting me with your fur baby. I am looking forward to getting to know your pup and to helping your fur baby get some extra energy out.
“Bennett was so great with our two "high energy", playful, cuddly cats! It was clear how much he genuinely enjoyed spending time with them as if they were his own. Was so happy to have found him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a sitter.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Manchester
Cleo was wonderful with my kitties and they adore her! One of them is very shy and hid at first, and she took the time and patience to make him feel comfy and made sure he got what he needed. She was communicative about how they were doing and I felt so much better being away from them knowing she was there and loving them like her own cats! She is awesome and we'd happily book her again!!
Ashley was great!! I got pictures & a report card every check-in. She was very attuned to my senior kitty. She is on some medication that can come with side effects and Ashley made sure to let me know what she was noticing! Definitely will hire again. She has a great attitude & even watered my plant while I was away! Thank you so much, Ashley!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Manchester is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $33 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 2,732 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Manchester. 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 Manchester. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
