About: I have been caring for animals my whole life. I'm always the one everyone calls to sit, or when their pet is sick. We recently got a service dog for my daughter that I helped train. I was offered a job there, but it's too far to drive. I am incredibly patient and love animals more than people sometimes!😄 Haven't had an unhappy doggo yet! I stay home currently, and I am always with my Angel, training or walking or playing. He's my first dog. I've never known love like this! We go for walks multiple times a day. I have a fair amount of energy and some dog training experience. I already love your baby!

About: I’m currently a college student pursuing a Doctor of Pharmacy degree and have a lot of experience caring for animals since I have four cats of my own. Taking care of them has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to understand different pet needs. In addition to my love for animals, I also work as a caregiver and a pharmacy technician, which has strengthened my skills in attention to detail, reliability, and compassion. These experiences make me confident that I can provide excellent care and attention to your pets while you’re away. I'm currently working part-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility. My experience also includes caregiving and working as a pharmacy technician, which means I'm very adaptable and can rearrange my schedule as needed to ensure your pet gets the best possible care. I can be flexible for specific needs. My caregiving experience has exposed me to numerous pets whose owners I cared for, and I assisted in their daily care. . My pharmacy technician background means I'm also comfortable administering medication if necessary. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I also have 4 cats, a bird, a couple of frogs who adore my household.

About: What sets me apart is my deep love and experience with huskies—I’ve proudly cared for three generations of my grandma’s huskies ( and if you know about them is that you NEED love in your heart and patience overall so I can proudly say I can take care of any dog with any necesity), each with their own quirks and needs. Since 2020, I’ve been actively training and dog-sitting, and over time, it’s become more than a job—it’s a passion. My friends even call me their “911” for dog walks and puppy emergencies! I’ve helped guide many first-time puppy parents with easy, effective care tips and routines. On any given day, I’m surrounded by a joyful pack of up to 10 dogs, and nothing makes me happier than sharing my energy, patience, and love with every pup I meet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I work online, which gives me a super flexible schedule with free mornings and evenings. That means I’m able to adapt perfectly to your dog’s needs, whether it’s early walks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra cuddles. Since I already care for a group of dogs daily, I’m used to creating a consistent, loving environment where every pup feels safe and happy. I love being active and outdoors, so spending quality time with dogs isn’t just doable—it’s the best part of my day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. In my home, I keep a clean, spacious, and dog-friendly environment where pups can play, rest, and feel right at home—especially those with high energy like huskies. I follow feeding schedules, keep water fresh, and make sure each dog gets individual attention, from walks to enrichment time. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care I give my own, sticking to their pet’s routines and preferences. I respect their space, keep communication open, and always leave things better than I found them. Whether it’s a puppy still learning or a senior dog that needs patience, I adapt and give them the love and structure they deserve.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, having started a "dog walking business" when I was ten years old, pet sitting for just as long, and I've been fostering both cats and dogs with local rescues for several years now. My soft spot is senior pets. Animals make me feel whole. Whether it’s cats, dogs, little critters or reptiles I genuinely love them all. Bonus points my husband is a retired MWD handler and has a dog training business both here and back at home in Texas, so we’ve worked with many dogs with all backgrounds. I stay at home and keep the same daily routine for my pups. My husband is a retired MWD handler we have a dog training business both here and in SATX. My life is pets every day. I want to keep your dog comfortable while you're away. My dogs are free to roam inside when I’m home, they may sleep where they are comfortable. They will not be allowed outside to roam the yard unless I'm also in the backyard with them.

About: I have been dog sitting and fostering dogs for the past 15 years. I absolutely love being able to interact with and care for dogs of all ages and with varying needs. I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors, from social and stable dogs to dogs that are reactive and need extra support in situations that they are unsure of. I also have knowledge in basic training, as I have trained my own dogs and have worked with the foster dogs to get them ready for adoption. I enjoy making sure the dogs I care for are fulfilled physically and mentally (play dates with other social dogs that have a compatible play style, pack walks, trick training, jogs, fetch, etc.). I look forward to having to opportunity to become a part of your dog's life. I have references and am more than willing to answer any questions. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I am a social worker at a therapeutic elementary school. I ensure that the dogs I care for are taken on walks and have an opportunity to play in the fenced in the yard in the morning so that they are tired and naturally want to sleep while I am at work. When I get home from work, I enjoy going on more walks, playing in the yard, bringing them on car rides to various places, scheduling play dates, trick training, etc. before we eat dinner and relax afterwards. My yard is fully fenced, providing a secure place for your dog to romp around. The fence is chain link, 6 feet tall, and reinforced on the bottom. My house is dog proof as well.

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities! Since joining Rover, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for so many wonderful dogs, including several I’ve been lucky enough to care for consistently over the past five years. Building lasting relationships with these pups and their families has been one of the most rewarding parts of being a sitter! My experience ranges from energetic puppies to sweet seniors requiring extra patience and specialized care. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, bathing, administering supplements/medications, preparing specialized meals, and accommodating unique dietary needs and routines. One of my most meaningful experiences was caring for my own dog, Murphy, throughout his battle with cancer. His care involved preparing specialized meals, administering daily supplements, and bringing him to regular vet appointments and to his holistic vet for his acupuncture! That experience gave me an even deeper appreciation for the patience, compassion, and individualized attention our furry family members deserve. I truly believe dogs are family, and I treat every pup in my care as if they were my own. Whether we’re enjoying walks, spending time outdoors, or simply relaxing with plenty of cuddles, my priority is making sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, Rover has allowed me to continue doing something I absolutely love. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pup is in caring, experienced, and dependable hands! ❤️🐾 I currently work from home so I can be extremely flexible with my schedule! I'm also available on weekends, overnights, and longer overnight stays if needed! When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I create a warm, welcoming environment and follow each pet’s routine closely to minimize any stress. This includes feeding them on schedule, ensuring they get plenty of exercise, and giving them lots of love and attention! I make sure their space is clean and cozy, and I keep their toys and bedding fresh. For walks or playtime, I ensure they’re getting the right amount of activity based on their needs, whether that’s a long hike, a fun fetch session, or some relaxing cuddle time. I also monitor their health, providing any special care like administering medications, supplements, or preparing special meals if needed. It’s all about making them feel safe, happy, and loved!

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I understand that pets are family. I am patient, responsible, and dedicated to providing every pet with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. I believe in maintaining routines, ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable, and paying close attention to their individual needs and personalities. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I take pride in creating a positive and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. You can trust that your furry family member will be treated with kindness, respect, and plenty of affection while in my care. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind, knowing their beloved companion is safe, happy, and well cared for when they can’t be there themselves. Pet care fits naturally into my life because animals have always been an important part of it. As a pet owner myself, I understand the responsibility, patience, and dedication that come with caring for animals every day. I enjoy spending time with pets, whether that means going for walks, playing, maintaining their routines, or simply providing comfort and companionship. Caring for animals is more than just a job to me—it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I take pride in making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. My experience caring for my own dogs has taught me the importance of consistency, attention to detail, and treating every pet as if they were part of my own family. Pet care fits into my life because it allows me to do something I love while helping both pets and their owners feel happy, secure, and cared for. Just let me know on how you do things and I will carry that into my home. How ever you’ll would like. I just want your dogs to feel comfortable with me and my home.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Methuen

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Methuen is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $63 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 9,332 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Methuen. 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 Methuen 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 .

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.

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 .

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 Methuen 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 Methuen. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% 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 , 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.
