I understand that life happens and plans can change. I’m very attentive, and my own dogs are definitely spoiled with love and care.

About: Hi there! I am a lifelong dog owner and have been caring for others' pets for over 5 years. I have experience walking and doing in-home check-ins with both dogs and cats.

Places where your pet can easily get lost will be checked such as: cabinets, closets, tight spaces and wires. Pets are leashed and supervised on our fun outdoor trips.
“Skylar was absolutely incredible with our four dogs! She was available at the last minute for a family emergency. In the process, she updated me and shared some photos of some very happy babies.

Thank you, Skylar for loving them as much as we do :)”

About: I have worked with active and retired Akita show dogs, as well as dogs of every breed and different temperments. I have experience in dog communication and behaviors. I have also owned six cats and two Great Danes. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur babies. Both of my daughters are away at college, so it is time for me to do what I'm passionate about. Whether your dog likes walks, playing frisbee, playing ball, snuggling, or just needs some TLC, I'm up for all of it. I love to explore and trail walks in the woods are my favorite.

I provide long walks as I go on runs and walks myself everyday. I can provide light training and will always follow your personal rules you have with your pets.
About: Hello! I have experience caring for pets in my area (as well as my own) and I am excited to connect with families and make some new furry friends!

On weekends I am free to stay home with them all day! I love spending time with animals and enjoy taking my dog on long walks, which I’ll be happy to do with your fur baby! Giving pets, attention, keeping your pet active, and following directions/owner preferences are all strong suits of mine.
About: I have cared for animals my whole life, from cats and dogs to reptiles. I've had them all. I currently look after a 17-year-old senior cat and a 13-year-old senior pit bull. I enjoy the outdoors, and making animals happy always brightens my day! Depends on the needs. If it’s walks, as many as needed. I love walking. Feedings anytime, as many as needed. Overnight stays, obviously only one a day. I care for my pets how anyone should—lots of love, well-fed, with toys, entertainment, and cuddles. My care will depend on the animal's comfortability and needs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Manchester
Lindsay is amazing! She is flexible with our hectic schedules. She treats our crazy puppy with love and compassion ! He looks forward to seeing her every time. Lindsay goes above and beyond and even gives us tips and tricks for training our baby. We love Lindsay!
We love working with Lily! She is so communicative and takes amazing care of our pets. She lets us know if something seems a little out of the norm with them (one of our dogs had some health issues). She sends a bunch of pictures and is so thorough in her notes. Looking forward to working with her more in the future!!
Emily is fantastic with Libby and treats her like her own! She is very receptive to learning about Libby, her routine and needs, and Libby loves spending time with her. I feel 100% confident having Emily pop in for visits and take Libby on walks while I'm at work. Libby is looking forward to more visits, cuddles and walks with Emily!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Manchester is $27 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $39 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 1,959 sitters on Rover offering Dog 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.
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 Manchester 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 Manchester with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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 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.
