“It’s not easy finding someone to care for your beloved pets while away for work or vacation. Having the right person stay at your home is the difference between a great trip and a bad one. Finding that RIGHT person is paramount. Daniel is that RIGHT person. He’s kind, gentle, and very reliable. He cared for our pups and our home as we would. If you are looking for someone to care for your pets look no further. We highly recommend Daniel!”

About: Hi fellow pet owners! I have 2 little devils of my own who love other puppies and play time! Pups and cats are super fun and they deserve quality time with their sitter. I have an entire room dedicated for visiting cats so they have room to play and stretch. I have tons of toys for dogs AND cats and can't wait to take care of your little ones! I had pets since I was a little kiddo and love them all. If you need them to exercise, this is your place! I work full time M-F and I am able to come home every 2 to 4hrs to give potty breaks and play time to dogs and cats alike I have a backyard for pups to run and a quiet, safe neighborhood and trails to walk them around. Play time is very important in any pets live and I'm happy to provide that for them.

About: I have taken care of my friends pets for a few years now, either going over to their house to check on them, let them out and play with them or even taking them on walks. I currently have 3 dogs at home, and I have been taking care of them since they were puppies as well as the dogs I have had previously as well. I know how to handle small dogs and medium/large dogs, whether it comes to walks or just checking in to play with them, or let them out for the bathroom. I am currently working a part-time job, so I have all the time during the day to walk dogs and care for them. I am free anytime after 9 am. I currently have three dogs of my own at home. I play with them a lot inside the house when it gets too hot, and every few hours I let them out for the bathroom and play and tire them out, when outside, depending on how hot it is. I walk around outside with them to get some walking in up and down our driveway.

“Karren did a wonderful job caring for our senior dog Daisy while we were away. She sent us photos and detailed reports after every visit, which were so wonderful to receive. In addition to feeding and watering and letting Daisy out for pees and poops, Karren administered Daisy's medication, cleaned up a mess, and brought in our packages. We will most definitely use her again.”

About: 🏆 20+ yrs Experience !! BIG FENCED IN YARD !! *** SPECIALIZE IN LONG STAYS *** I love and respect each animal for who they are as I do people. I am confident when caring for any pet that we will respect and understand one another, I gage their demeanor and temperament and than go from there. I keep a calm and clean (but lived in) home and I utilize my big fenced in yard to it's fullest!! I love playing catch with the dogs and the cats I let them do their thing whether it's cuddling on the couch or if they are skiddish or shy I let them be until they are comfortable enough to be approached or to approach me. I also can give baths and trim nails! Need a sitter who has a big heart and a big yard? Call me! I have a semi flexible work schedule and I'm 10 mins from my house. I pop in and out during work hours and I'm home everyday and night 24/7 Cameras inside and out to keep an eye on the woof pack!! I am diligent on our daily schedule and bc of this the pups usually seem to get it after a day or two tops. I think sticking to a regimented schedule calms them almost immediately. Once they all have there “spot” where they sleep and eat the anxiety level instantly drops a few levels for every one of them. I have a large secure fenced in yard very open for running, playing catch or Frisbee, I can brush or bath any pet for you and I also offer nail trimming. Big bowls of fresh FILTERED water inside and out changed several times a day. I am diligent on dietary restrictions. Every day i make one on one time for each and every pup, they really love and appreciate it! i totally get that they need that time especially before bed. (I tuck them all in)

About: Hi, I’m Stephanie! I would love to provide a safe and happy experience for you and your pet while you’re away. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and will treat your pet like my own. I’m a mental health therapist during the day and have a rescue cat named Itty Bitty Kitty. I found her at 2-3 weeks old with a sinus infection and nursed her back to health. She’s a happy and healthy (ironically named) cat now a days. I’ll take the same great care of your pets while you’re away. I can do check ins with your cats or walk your dogs. I have experience with all sizes and ages of dogs and love them all! I could do checks in with your cats and dogs throughout the week and weekend. I’ll make sure to check in with you and send pictures/videos of your pets while you’re gone if you’d like. My goal is take care of your best friend like he/she is my very own and to give you peace of mind while you’re away from home. I currently work from home Monday-Friday as a mental health therapist. I make my own schedule so I could arrange care for your pet based on your needs. I have a fenced yard at home and love taking walks. If your pet were to stay with me, I work from home so they would be supervised throughout the day and would also get lots of play time and affection.

About: I've taken care of dogs ever since I was 12. I have taught my own dogs many tricks, take them on frequent walks, and provide lots of love! I make sure they have fresh water, food, and clean fur. I enjoy playing with small dogs gently and with care! I am a Kindergarten teacher that is currently available all summer long! I enjoy being active and keeping busy. Tending to animals has always been a passion of mine during my down time. I currently do not own any pets at the moment. When I did, I made sure to take my dogs for several walks, feed them with quality meals, change their water, and make sure their area is safe from hazardous items before leaving the house.

About: Hi! I’m Alexandra, a lifelong animal lover and sitter of dogs🐾 I know how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pets, so I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, attention, and love I would want someone to give my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines—from playful puppies who need lots of attention and potty breaks to adult dogs who are happiest going for a walk and curling up on the couch afterward. I understand that every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow your normal feeding schedule, walking routine, training cues, crate routine, medication instructions, or any other preferences that help your pet feel comfortable and secure. I work remotely, so your dog will always have a companion home with them to make sure they are getting all the love and attention they need. I’ve always been the go-to person for my family and friends when they need someone they trust to care for their pets, but my experience goes beyond pet sitting. When I lived in Austin, Texas, I spent about a year fostering dogs and puppies, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. That’s actually how I ended up with my dog Cosmo—I was a proud “foster fail” and couldn’t bring myself to let him go! If I had the space, I probably would have adopted every foster dog and cat that came through my home. These days, pet sitting gives me the perfect excuse to spend time with more animals without constantly bringing another one home. 😂 I genuinely love caring for pets and treat every animal like they’re one of my own. As a pet parent myself, I also know how stressful it can be leaving your dog with someone new. I’m very communicative and will happily send plenty of photos, videos, and updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. 📸💕 Outside of pet sitting, I work professionally as a program and events coordinator, so being organized, dependable, communicative, and attentive to details is a huge part of my everyday life. In my free time, I love spending time with my dogs, baking, doing crafts and nails, traveling, building LEGO sets, and relaxing at home. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, potty breaks, cuddles, or just someone to keep them company while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and completely spoiled. 🐶💗 I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine since I have two dogs of my own. I’m used to planning my day around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, training, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m also very much a homebody, so when I’m not working or running an occasional errand, I’m usually at home with my pets. Adding another furry guest into my routine comes very naturally to me, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule around their normal routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. 🐾💕 I always try to keep each pet’s routine as close to normal as possible, whether I’m caring for them in my home or theirs. I follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, crate routines, playtime, and any other special needs or preferences. I know every pet has their own personality, so I adjust my care depending on whether they love constant attention and cuddles or prefer a little more space and independence. When pets stay in my home, safety is my biggest priority. I have dogs of my own, but I always keep my pets separated from my guests’ pets rather than assuming unfamiliar animals will get along. This allows every pet to have their own comfortable, safe space and gives owners peace of mind. My apartment complex also has a dog park, so if you are comfortable with your dog using it, I’m happy to take them there for some extra exercise and playtime. If dog parks aren’t your preference, that’s completely fine too! I’m more than happy to take them on long walks and strolls around my complex or visit nearby parks instead. I’ll always follow whatever you feel is safest and most appropriate for your dog. I’m very attentive and spend plenty of time checking in, playing, walking, cuddling, and making sure pets are comfortable throughout their stay. I also send regular photos and updates because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy and doing well while you’re away. 🐾💕

About: I’m a true animal lover! I’ve cared for furry family my entire life. A house is not a home for us without them. I take the time to get to know clients wishes & customize each visit according to each guest’s desire. If you prefer couch over doggy bed, they get the couch. If you don’t want them on your couch at home, then that’s off limits. I have been a dog trainer in the past, so I can help with that too while your furry family is entrusted to my care. We live on a small farm with two 6’ high fenced play areas with pet pools & toys. Your furry family member is my first priority! This is my full time job. I’m home most of the day, each & every day. If they need lots of extra playtime each day, I’m happy to oblige! Their happiness makes me happy. 😊 Your furry family becomes our furry family. I treat them as our special guests while here & cater to their individual needs. I like to think it’s their vacation time as well while you’re on your vacation; all while following the same guidelines you have established in your home. I follow your rules whether caring for your pets in my home or yours. I have 2 large 6’ high fenced play areas. We play catch, frisbee, & have a growing number of obstacles to entertain guests. Please let me know what I can do to make their visit most enjoyable. 💞🐶🐈🐎💞

About: Hi! I’m an 18 year old student who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets and making them feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’ve grown up with cats and have experience with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and understanding animal behavior and moods. I’m very patient, gentle, and attentive, and I always try to match each pet’s personality, whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and need a calm presence. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll always treat them like my own. I’m responsible, reliable, and happy to send regular updates and photos so you feel completely at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and stress-free in your absence! Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I already structure my day around responsibility, consistency, and being attentive to details. I’m used to keeping a steady routine, so adding feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins for pets feels very natural to me. I enjoy spending time with animals, so it never feels like a chore, it becomes something I genuinely look forward to throughout the day. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of the family. I follow their normal feeding schedule, make sure they always have fresh water, keep their space clean, and give them lots of attention, play, and affection depending on their personality. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of routines and instructions. I stick closely to the pet’s usual schedule so they feel secure in their own environment. I double-check everything: food, water, walks, litter boxes, medications if needed, and I always make sure pets get not just care, but companionship so they don’t feel alone while their owner is away.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - North Hanover

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Hanover is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 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 8,386 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Hanover. 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 North Hanover. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.

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.
