âDoris went above and beyond in caring for my cat while I was away on a week long vacation. Doris was able to connect with my kitty-girl, and not only take care of her physical needs, but give her special, heart-felt, loving attention. I knew this because of the updates Doris provided, and also because when I came home, my cat was was not at all distressed -- happy to see me, but calm and relaxed. I definitely recommend Doris. She has a heart for and experience with a variety of animals, and is an excellent caregiver.â
âWhat a great experience ! The dogs love Gabrielle ! She was wonderful with our dogs . We were going to take them to a kennel "resort" that has concrete floors... I AM SO GLAD WE CHOSE ROVER ! AND SO GLAD WE CHOSE GABRIELLE ! Highly recommend !â


About: Iâve taken care of dogs for both friends and family for about four years now. I have experience with both young and old, Iâve taken care of my own dog since she was a puppy and she is now almost 12. I do not currently have another job, but I am a student at York College. I have lots of free time during the day to take your babies on walks, have play dates, and sleepovers! I work well with instructions because I think it is best to keep them with the same schedules they are accustomed to. I love to keep them comfortable and give them tons of attention.

âLindsay was INCREDIBLY attentive and even made a makeshift barrier for one of our kitties that needed to stay downstairs and separated from our other cat while we were on vacation. She's an angel and always gave us really nice updates on our fur babies. We would recommend her in a heartbeat and absolutely book her again to watch our cats.â


âCynthia is amazing! She went over and above my expectations. She took great care of our diabetic kitty, our bunny, guinea pigs and goldfish. She posted at every check in with pictures and updates. She even watered my garden during 90 degree days. Such a sweetheart! I will definitely continue to use her service, dependable, reliable, on point with great care. I can't say enough about how grateful I am to have found her!!â
âKiah, Did a great job stopping in to let Sky out and play with her while I was away. She sent me updates when she was on her way and she also sent photos of Sky playing ball. I will definately use Kiah again for when I need someone to stop in and check on Sky.â

âRonny has been great. Our dogs love him and come running when we say his name. He is very communicative. He takes the time to answer questions and offer advise for our puppy training. I will, and am, using his services again.â


About: I truly believe that pets are part of the family and am here to treat yours as my own. I am the first person my friends turn to when they need a sitter, and have both hosted dogs in my house and stayed with them in their own. I also enjoy pet visits and walks! I work as a teacher, so most of my availability is on the weekend and during summer months, although I am available for evening visits or walks during the week. I have a large fenced in yard that is great for running and playing and live in a neighborhood ideal for walks. I have a large crate available, if your dogâs routine includes crating. My own golden retriever would love to be friends with and keep your pet company! While I allow pets on my furniture and beds, I will follow the rules established for your pet. Your pet will receive plenty of love and attention!

âThis was my first time since moving and having my cat alone so I was nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Tai was communicative, caring, friendly and sweet! She closely followed the instructions I left. I am so grateful for the last minute drop-in visit. I will definitely reach out again and would recommend her for anyoneâs pet!â


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.
âChloe did a great job with our ducks! They were happy and healthy when we got back. She went above and beyond when it ended up being colder than expected. I appreciate all the pictures she sent and the care that she gave them. We would book with her again!â
About: Iâve taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. From untrained and accident prone puppies to mature Great Danes, Iâve walked, watched, visited, and stayed with them all! I currently walk and sit dogs/cats for a lil side hustle. Once Summer starts, I hope to keep hanging out with pets to make some extra money! Iâm a very flexible person. If your dog needs to be hand fed or sleep in my bed, I have no problems! Iâll do mostly anything to make sure your dog is comfortable while youâre away!
About: Hi, I'm Kiran! With over a decade of experience caring for my three dogs and various pets like birds and bunnies, I truly love animals. Your pets will be in great hands with me! I am currently a student at Wilmington University and am available anytime after 11 a.m. due to lacrosse practice. Also I am available for house sitting overnight Since I have pets of my own. I only offer services at client homes. But I have lots of experience and will spend time throughout the day with your pet playing with them, feeding them and giving them water.

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 grandmotherâs. 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. Itâs 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 youâd 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!
âLauren has cared for my furry friends multiple times, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is always respectful of our home and incredibly compassionate with our cats. Her communication is excellent both before and during each visit, and I truly appreciate the thoughtful notes and adorable pictures she sends. They provide peace of mind while weâre away. I always feel confident that my babies are safe, loved, and receiving exceptional care in her hands.â

âLauren was available to come and let Ruby out on short notice. She had to wear a cone and I was stressed leaving her alone. Lauren sent me a picture and eased my stress. Sheâs great.â

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.
Melinda responded promptly to my last minute request and showed up on time. She listened and followed directions and was respectful to my wishes. Melinda was friendly and handled the animals with care. She was kind to the humans too. I recommend her and will use again.

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 July 2026, there are 1,999 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 petâs routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your petâs mood and energy levels.
Whether youâre 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 sitterâs 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 youâre away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent youâd 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, donât 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 Justiceâs 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 Roverâs 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.

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.
