“Julia was great! She sent the best pics of my kitty while I was away and he seemed to really enjoy her company during the drop-ins. No issues what so ever and will definitely be using her again!”
About: Welcome! I go by “Nancy!” 🐾🐈🦮 I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember and have had pets for over 25 years. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life, not just a hobby. Over the years I’ve had different kinds of pets, and I currently have two budgies and a betta fish. I enjoy getting to know each animal’s personality and earning their trust at their own pace. I’m naturally attentive and tend to notice when something seems off or when a pet needs a little extra patience and care. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and I would care for yours the same way I care for my own. Animals have always been a part of my life. I’m currently a student chaplain, a full-time mom to two girls, and a pet mom to two budgies and a betta fish. Caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, and in my free time, I’d love the opportunity to spend time with and care for other pets. While I’m new to this platform offering dog walking services, I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. 🐾 I treat every pet as if they were my own. I focus on safe, enjoyable walks, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and make sure each pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they need. I also provide updates so owners know how their pet is doing.
“Charlotte was fantastic in making sure my cat Nyla was fed and hydrated while I was away! Nyla also got her favorite treats! Charlotte made her feel safe as evidenced by her demeanor when I returned”
“Victoria took great care of our cat for a week while we were on vacation. She sent lots of pictures and updates and you could tell he enjoyed her visits! He’s a shy cat so we were so happy to see he warmed up to her right away. Knowing Victoria was taking great care of our cat made our vacation even better!”
“Lauren is exceptional! She goes above and beyond to make sure our cats are well-cared for. She is always prompt with updates and shares details that make us feel assured that all is well. We will continue to book with her!”
“We were so happy with how well taken care of our cat was while we were away for the weekend! Keelyn was very detailed in her drop in visit summaries and we felt confident that she gave our elderly cat lots of love and attention at each visit. Thank you so much Keelyn!!”
About: “I stand out for my patience and dedication. I have experience taking care of dogs of all ages, from puppies that need training to older pets that require special attention. I always prioritize the safety, well-being and happiness of each animal, adapting to their individual needs. I also have experience taking care of the elderly. " "Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I dedicate specific time for walks, feeding, games and supervision, making sure that each pet receives constant attention, exercise and affection, without affecting my other responsibilities." "When I take care of pets in my home, I create a safe, clean and comfortable environment, making sure they have fresh water, food, exercise and daily playtime. At the client's home, I follow all his specific instructions to maintain the pet's routine, respecting his habits and individual needs."
“Beth cared for our kitties while we were away and did everything we asked. Our shy cat even warmed up to her. You can tell she is an animal lover! Looking forward to having her cat-sit in the future.”
“Ashley came over to meet Pippa prior to the drop in visits. She’s so pleasant and has experience with rescue dogs. She follows up with pictures after each visit. I highly recommend her.”
About: I've had two dogs of my own - one blind, and the other deaf. I am happy to manage your pet's quirks while we're having a great time together, too. Every pet needs something different, so I'll pay close attention to the details of your instructions. I'm also very focused on safety: leashes and familiar walks are a must! I am a teacher, so during the school year, I am available after 4:00pm to check in on your pet so everyone is happy when you arrive home. Also, I am booking now for summer - I would love to share my time off with your pets! I am a teacher during the school year, so my summer is wide open. I do enjoy visiting a few clients each day - it adds some structure to my own life! At my place, I have an air-conditioned apartment and a small porch where your pet and I can relax. We can take walks in the neighborhood or along the rail trail, located right across the street. Leashes and tags are always a must! In your home, I'll be sensitive to your pet's routines and habits around the house. Likewise, I'll be careful about your privacy and the condition of your home. In either location, we can agree on a timetable so you can expect pictures and updates of your special pet.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Peabody
Abby is amazing!! I have a hard time with missing my kitty when I travel, as I always worry about her. But Abby always sends me photos and a little info about how my kitty is doing each day and it brings me so much comfort knowing she’s being looked after. She goes above and beyond to be thoughtful and tidy and would recommend her for any and all pet needs.
Charlotte was fantastic with our cat Miso! She did a great job providing care to her, and is clearly very experienced with cats as she was able to get on Miso’s good side quite quickly. Charlotte also sent lots of pictures and videos, which is always so appreciated (: Would definitely rebook with Charlotte again!
This has been our first trip leaving the cats in a very long while and we left leaving a little nervous but as Michaela came in and gave us updates, day by day, fotos, and helped around their necessities we were beyond grateful. She did an amazing job with our boy cat that is a bit of a hyper toddler, like a pro and even our shy cat came around and started to meet her by the door. All very good signs they also loved her visits.
Victoria took great care of our cat for a week while we were on vacation. She sent lots of pictures and updates and you could tell he enjoyed her visits! He’s a shy cat so we were so happy to see he warmed up to her right away. Knowing Victoria was taking great care of our cat made our vacation even better!
We hired Jamie based on her recommendations and repeated customers here on Rover. I was nervous to leave my two kitties, especially my elder cat who is chronically ill. Jamie was punctual and attentive to their needs, feeding, dispensing my calico’s meds, and spending time with both. She alleviated my fears by being in touch during visits, and the photos she sent assured me that they were in good hands. They seemed calm and happy, responding to her positively. My second cat is very shy, and her approach obviously was effective as her photos show him very chill. I recommend her highly.
Mackenzie did a very nice job taking care of Luigi and Lucia! She fes them according to my directions (we have special feeders), and she was able to give my cat Luigi his insulin injections accurately and correctly. The litter was well scooped and everything looked great when I returned home. Greatly appreciated her!

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 Peabody 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.
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 Peabody. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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 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.
