Lisa was amazing! We left our cats for over a week which was a long time for them, they can be a little upset with us when we get home, but they were happy and curious, so I know Lisa spent some time each day with them playing and talking to them. She sent pictures everyday and was very quick to respond to any of our questions. She was absolutely wonderful and would highly recommend her! We'll definitely use her again in the future!

About: They say grief is love with no place to go, so since my senior Belgian Malinois passed away, I've been fostering dogs and would like to get into dog walking. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I have pet-sat for family and friends as well. I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am generally available during daylight hours Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and 5 PM or later Tuesday and Thursday. Before or at the start of our first walk, I'd like to get to know your dog's preferences, triggers, and typical walking habits and routes. I suggest treats for positive reinforcement if working on socialization and a slip lead to reduce pulling. A safe, enjoyable outing is my priority for your dog.

About: I don't have a ton of experience with pet-sitting, but I LOVE animals. My two cats are my life, and I always do what I can to ensure they are happy in their forever home. I've always grown up with animals in my home, so adding some more fur-rends (please laugh) temporarily is always welcome. My days are usually very open, since I just graduated high school. I'm mostly doing this as a summer gig, since I'll be off to college come August. I have a fenced yard and two cats! They are very shy around other animals/people, but are in general very friendly. The yard is huge, with a ton of space for an animal to run around and play.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years now. I have three pups of our own and come from a family of pet lovers! Love spending time with pups and helping them keep comfortable in the comfort of their own home. I work full time in a flexible and hybrid environment. Whether the pups are with me or I am staying with the pups in the owner’s home, I make sure they are comfortable and getting all necessary activities. I will work with each pet family’s care guidelines to make sure they are getting the best and stress free care! For us, we have a fenced in yard which helps us with ongoing activities.

About: I've always had lots of love for pets since a young age. Growing up my family had a house of 2 dogs and 3 cats, which means a lot of bowls to be filled, yard and litter box to be cleaned, and snuggles to be given and received at the end of the night. My on-hand experiences have ranged since 2017 with my own pet sitting clients, worked as a receptionist at a local hospital, and as a caretaker at Petco. I understand the importance of treating pets as if they were my own. Safety, comfortability, and attention are my top priorities when I'm responsible for your beloved furry ones. I am a fresh graduate. My most recent schedule is 6am to 4:30pm Mon-Thurs in the Hellam township area. I am very available and more open Friday, Saturday and Sunday all day. In the past, I had my own senior cat (Sapphire) who I loved and cared for every day for 3 years until she passed onto the rainbow bridge. I personally understand how that bond and connection feels. Although my present living situation at an apartment doesn't allow pets, for the past two years I've been housesitting at my clients' homes. I respect and follow the guidelines of each and every one. During most of client's departure, I've collected or separated mail, trash is out on time, and ensured the home is cleaned for when they return. I enjoy sending daily updates through texting, photos, or videos to the owner with our activities from playing, walking, feeding and napping. Clear communication with dietary, medication, grooming and other needs is my responsibility. I will do everything to the best of my abilities to ensure a stress-free time for my clients and their pets.

About: I’m a dedicated animal lover and experienced caregiver with a lifelong background in working with pets. As a homeowner and mom to a toddler, a German Shepherd mix, and two cats, I understand the importance of respect, safety, and attentive care in a home environment. I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, including large and high-energy breeds like Great Pyrenees and Malamutes. I also have hands-on experience working at multiple doggy daycares, where I learned how to handle dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with walking, playtime, basic training, and administering medications. At home, I care for a senior epileptic cat and a dog who both require daily medication, so I’m very familiar with keeping consistent routines and providing care for pets with special needs. I’ve also trained my own dogs over the years and continue to reinforce structure and good behavior. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for amphibians, reptiles, and previously had chickens, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals and their different care needs. I’m currently pursuing a degree in biology, which helps me better understand animal health and behavior. Above all, I truly love animals and prioritize their happiness, safety, and comfort in everything I do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, especially in the afternoons and evenings. I am currently available starting at 8am on weekdays, as well as weekends, which allows me to provide consistent and attentive care during those day. I am a mom to a toddler, so communication is important to discuss flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and extended care. I prioritize reliability and routine, ensuring all visits, walks, and medication schedules are followed closely. At this time, I provide pet care exclusively in my clients’ homes to ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize consistency, safety, and attention to detail. I follow all feeding, walking, playtime, and medication schedules closely, and I take time to understand each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or requires special care, I adjust my approach to make them feel secure and stress-free. I also treat every home with the same respect and care as my own, keeping things clean, secure, and well-maintained while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to make your time away as easy as possible for both you and your pet by providing reliable, compassionate, and attentive in-home care.

About: Dogs are my passion. I've always had dogs in my house growing up. From taking care of neighbors, to past teachers, friends and widespread family, people know they can trust me with their furry friends. In 2019 I started professionally walking dogs, and explored pet sitting. I worked with a variety of different animals, from day to day, and over night! I have experience feeding (Free and timed), giving oral/topical medication, bathing/brushing, walking, and lastly giving LOTS of love and affection to your perfect pup! Dogs always come first in my line of work! Pet care is something I truly enjoy and make time for outside of my full-time work schedule. I work during the weekdays, but I have open availability all day Saturday and Sunday for walks, drop-ins, and boarding needs. My weekends allow me to dedicate my full attention to the pets in my care, providing plenty of playtime, companionship, exercise, and personalized care. I have over 5 years of experience in pet sitting and boarding, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I strive to make their routine as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe pets do best when they can stay in a familiar environment with the routines, care, and attention they are used to. I provide detailed updates after every visit or walk, including information about their behavior, activities, meals, bathroom breaks, and anything important I notice. I take pride in caring for each pet down to the smallest detail, whether that means following specific instructions, maintaining their schedule, administering medications when needed, or simply giving them the extra love and attention they deserve. My goal is always for both pets and owners to feel safe, comfortable, and confident while they are apart.

About: I have been around cats and dogs all my life. I just love all animals. Dog walking is great for their physical and mental health/improves their joints, and all around good therapy for me and your pet. Play time is also important. I will treat your furry family member with the utmost care & diligence. I am responsible, attentive, & detail oriented and will provide quality services. Currently available during the day. Just about anyday with a little notice. Can set up regular scheduled walk times. Or if you are in a bind, and need, on spur of notice. I am willing to walk from your home, or to a near by park. Giving attention and time. I typically like to know if they have a specific diet, medications, preferences, etc.

About: Taking care of dogs and cats has been my specialty since I was a child! I have had 8 dogs of all kinds, as well as 10 cats, not including my grandmother’s. My family and neighbors would trust me to feed and water their pets while they were away. I am great at crating puppies and socializing feral/young kittens. It’s always a pleasure to brush or bathe pets depending on their size! I am working a part-time job at Petsmart so my day is already filled with furry faces! But I will still have plenty of days where I can come take care of your puppy or kitty! My schedules are usually two weeks out so I have plenty of notice of when I am free. Contact me of a day when you’d like me to care for your pet and I will let you know the earliest I am available that day! Unfortunately I am not in a position to invite pets into my home… I am figuring out my living situation and will update this section when I have a suitable place for pets to visit!

About: Hi I'm Ryan! I've worked professionally in the animal industry for 5 years. I started my journey as a dog handler at a daycare. Now I'm currently a dog groomer, walker, and sitter. I also have 6 dogs myself! I have experience looking after dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, reptiles, and exotic pets. I can't wait to meet your fur babies. I have plenty of free time and would like for this to be my full time job for while! I do plan on going to a local college but other than that I'm pretty free for scheduling. I come to your house to make it easier on your pets. I'll stop in a couple times a day to feed, water, let them go outside, and play with them. I'll make sure your babies are not lonely when you are gone. I also offer luxury walks for your pups so they can get the exercise they need to stay happy and keep you happy.

Yanna provided excellent care for my 3 dogs and cat during our vacation. I finally felt relaxed knowing that they were being cared for. Lots of photos sent during every drop-in l, and they all looked very happy. I would definitely rebook and would highly recommend Yanna for your pet care while away.

About: Hours of availability on the weekends, Friday 5pm-Sun 9pm. Possibly before 5 on fridays depending on location. I Love dogs, and have had 3 jack Russell terriers and 2 German short haired pointers and now 2 Labrador retrievers. I want to make it easy for pet owners to do things and not have to worry about their pet. I have also been in charge of the grooming(nails,bathing etc) since I was young. I feel I can tell how/what dogs want, they call me the dog whisperer. Just want all dogs/animals to love me :) We now adopted 3 kittens in the last 6 years since they always find us. Let me care for your dog/cat while you enjoy yourself. I have had other animals, not just dogs, as I care for animals in general(fish,guinea pigs, gerbils, rabbits, birds, cats). I have always been the dependable Neighbor and was always asked to watch the neighbors animals while they were away. I know how hard it is to find a caring person to watch your pet, instead of a kennel. I also have had to give my first dog insulin shots 2xs a day, also have given her medicine daily. Also give medicine/supplements to my current pets. Let me be that person.

Highly recommend Ash!!!

Alexa agreed to help us last minute after our original sitter had to cancel due to a personal emergency. She provided great care for our two dogs during her drop in visits. She played ball and sent several pictures of them throughout the weekend. She went above and beyond by reaching out after our duck was locked out of the chicken coop after dark, even though she was not responsible for our chickens and ducks care. We highly recommend Alexa for any pet sitting needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Manchester on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,866 sitters on Rover offering Dog 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.

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 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 Manchester with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Manchester. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
