“Shannon is great!!! We have an 11 month old boxer puppy and Shannon drops by to let her out to relieve herself and go for a walk while we are at work. She's extremely flexible and reliable. I would highly recommend her.”
“Amanda is the best! Extremely reliable and knows how to cater to each of our cats’ individual needs! She had no problem giving one of our cats his medication in small pieces of marshmallow, which the vet tech recommended! We’ve already booked her for July and will definitely ask her to take care of our cats again!”

About: I have always had a passion for animals, which I have actively pursued through animal care work and volunteering. These experiences have taught me the importance of having a safe, clean, loving, and happy environment for all animals! I currently have open availability, I am available on demanding hours such as; weekends, weekdays, holidays, and long hours. I have no problem with transportation, and can show up when needed! I have a fenced in yard with two of my own dogs at home. I also have animal daycare experience and can easily prioritize the safety and well being of all animals!
About: I am a huge animal lover. I have raised six chickens and loved them like family. At the Pumpkin Wall Farm in Derry, I volunteer with rescued barn animals. I am more than welcome to keep your cat, teacup dog, or small animal company while you are away. Your little ones will be fed, played with, and cuddled. While I don’t specialize in grooming or medical administration yet, I am excited to learn and follow any procedures your pet requires. My schedule is astonishingly flexible. If you need someone at the last minute, I am here for a quick drop-in. I am available Monday through Friday. Note: My availability varies around Sundays and major holidays. Your cuddle-buddies will always be kept in a clean, safe, and enriching environment with me. Litter boxes and food stations will be kept pristine throughout the day. 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.
About: Hello! My name is Coralee and I’m 20. Ive been a lifelong animal lover and have been caring for animals as long as I can remember. I am new to the Rover community, but I know how important it is to have the right person taking care of your pet(s)! I am constantly around animals in my day to day life and I am comfortable around all dog + cat breeds and sizes!! I am always willing to adapt and learn any type of dog/cats personality and what suits them best as it is not only my time but most importantly theirs. When I come to care for, play with, and walk your dog/cat I will dedicate all of my time to loving and bonding with them just as if they were my own! I am currently home full-time getting my GED online and I am available for drop ins, dog walking, and pet sitting. I will have more openings towards the holidays/end of the year starting NOV/DEC 2026. Please schedule all pet sittings a day or more in advance, I only ask this because I don’t want times overlapping. At my home I do have cats of my own, but they can be safely secured or moved if need be. There are also smokers at my house, but they only smoke outside NEVER inside. I have a very big un-fenced backyard and also a pool area with fence where we can relax, play, and even swim in the summer if allowed by owner first. At your home I really just want you and your dog/cat to be as comfortable as possible with me being there! I am totally fine with cameras and checking in on me, that is never a problem. If you have specific rules for your pet or your property I will follow and respect them. You can always reach out if you ever need anything!!
About: I’m a very honest, caring, and reliable person! I love animals. Animals are my world!! I don’t know what I’d do without them. I have loved animals ever since I was a little kid. I have recently been dog walking around my neighborhood after posting on Facebook and then I came across this app! I used to stay in others homes while they went on vacation etc. All day I’m at my nanas feeding the squirrels and birds, I love connecting with wildlife and nature! I am in school at Northern Essex Community College on Mondays and Wednesdays but I am available anytime after 5pm or anytime before 1pm on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays! I’d love to meet and figure something out. Whatever you would need for your dog or cat just let me know and I can do it. I am able to do many things and follow instructions well!
About: Hello! My name is Jenna. I absolutely love being around dogs and grew up with them my entire life. My first family dog was a yellow Labrador named Lady, and later, a wonderful black Lab mix named Maddie. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I have a lifetime of experience caring for them and plenty of love to give to yours.Because of my active lifestyle, I love spending time outdoors and going on long hikes. I will ensure your dog gets plenty of fresh air, active playtime, and frequent outdoor exercise. I treat every dog with the same kindness and respect I would show a human. In addition to my love for animals, I am a professional schoolteacher who works with young children, which has given me an abundance of patience, care, and reliability. I would be thrilled to treat your dog like a member of the family!
“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. Our dogs warmed up to her very quickly! She was also very understanding when we came home sooner than expected. We will definitely be using her in the future! Thank you, Skylar for loving them as much as we do :)”
About: I’ve shared my home with animals since I was a little kid, including two large Rottweiler dogs, three Yorkies, and even two cats. That means I’m comfortable with every size and personality, from strong, powerful dogs who need confident handling to tiny, spirited dogs who need extra gentleness. I understand dog body language, I’m patient with nervous pets, and I’m happy to follow your routine for feeding, walks, and playing! Pet care fits well into my routine because I am mostly home during the week. I’m usually available for: • morning/evening walks • morning, midday, evening check-ins Your pet won’t be left alone during visits , and I’ll stick to the schedule you already use. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first! I’ll treat your home with respect and lock up behind me, keep doors and gates secured, and always use a leash on walks. Having raised large dogs, I know how to handle strong pullers safely, and having raised small dogs and cats, I know how to keep little ones from slipping out. I’m happy to do a meet-and-greet at your home first. I can send updates during each visit and i'll leave your home as I found it.
“Arianna took great care of our elderly cat. She spent quality time with him each day, and sent us many photos that indicated that the cat was eating (sometimes an issue with him) and being cuddled and cared for. I highly recommend Arianna - we will certainly use her again to watch our guy!”

Allison was wonderful! She kept me posted and gave me great pictures ans updates. The animals loved her. She took the dogs for nice walks and gave the cats a lot of love. Plus cleaned the litterbox！we would definitely recommend her to anyone and will use her again!
This is the first time we have used a pet sitter, so we were a little nervous. Riley put out minds at ease with her professionalism. Our senior cat was happy and obviously well cared for when we got home. Riley sent pictures with every visit and gave us updates. The house smelled clean and fresh, not at all like it had been unused for two weeks! Little Chin and I thank you Riley!!! 🩷

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in North Salem is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $22 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 8,200 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Salem. 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Salem. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 Meet & Greet.
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.
