“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”
“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.
About: I’ll treat your dogs like I treat my spoiled dogs. I don’t shy away from whatever weird quirks your dog likes. I’m happy to help in whatever way makes your pet(s) most comfortable. I talk to animals like they’re people. I’m currently on break from teaching college writing and literature, and would love for a reason to get outside and hang out with some pups. I’m currently a renter and therefore cannot board any animals in my place, but I’m happy to care for your babies in the way you indicate to me through your specific instructions.
“Johnny is great. Super personable and easy to communicate with. He was reliable and showed up every morning to feed my cat and give her meds. Would definitely book him again.”
“Vanessa took great care of my cats during 100 degree weather while I was away from work. She ensured they drank enough water and adjusted ACs where needed. I always know they were safe with her.”
About: I provide dependable, personalized care that helps pets feel safe and comfortable in their own routine. I’m experienced with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, including energetic puppies, senior pets, and shy or anxious animals. I focus on patience, attention, and clear communication so pet owners always feel informed and at ease. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, medication support, feeding schedules, or extra comfort for older pets, I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent attention, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule so I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits when needed. I make sure each pet gets reliable care, regular exercise, and plenty of affection while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I care for pets in my home by abiding by the owner's feeding and snack schedule. I have fenced-in yard for playing. I walk the dogs in my neighborhood or go to a local park. I keep them on a leash, I NEVER let them roam free in a public area.
“Alena was amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure my cats were well cared for. She sent thorough updates when checking in that put our minds at ease. I absolutely recommend Alena to anyone!”
“Elizabeth provided great care for our cat. She was thoughtful and efficient with communication. Would recommend her and plan on utilizing her again in the future.”
“Maria has watched our cats on two occasions now and has done a great job each time! Hard to find with others- but she even cleans the area/litter around the litter boxes and just does a great job with everything -from actually swapping out to clean fresh bowls at each feeding. Cleanliness, and friendliness goes a long way! We are so grateful we found her. Not an easy task with 5 cats! I would recommend her to care for your animals, too.”
“Victoria took excellent care of my shy boy Ron! She made sure all of his needs were met while also making friends with him! I will be using her for care of my car in the future! Thank you!”
“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 am a graduate of the Essex North Shore Companion Animals program where I learned about different enrichment and health care needs for a variety of different animals, as well as have been a loving pet sister to a number of dogs, cats and small rodents! I am currently a full time college student with a part time job, so I do have to be fairly strict on which days I can provide services, but I am very flexible on days that I have available! I am very attentive and love to give your furry friends exercise and enrichment, whether that’s a nice long walk or playtime in the backyard.
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.
“Diaralyz is hands down the best Rover sitter we’ve ever worked with. She is incredibly kind, thorough, communicative and just went a full extra mile to make sure our experience was positive. Our two girl kitties were absolutely spoiled and loved in her care. We will definitely work with Diaralyz again. Thank you so much honey!!!”

We went away for a week and came back to very happy and relaxed cats. Leah took excellent care of our girls, gave us consistent and detailed updates on them, and clearly gave them wonderful attention and care. Thank you Leah! We’ll definitely book with her again.
Highly recommend Johnny! He took excellent care of our dog Candy, feeding her and taking her out for a nice walk. He was incredibly communicative, followed all of our instructions to a T, and gave us total peace of mind. Candy was in great hands, and we will absolutely reach out to him again in the future!
Caden came over to meet our cats for an upcoming trip where she will be sitting for us. She was wonderful with them! We have one very shy cat and she was so patient and gentle with him and very attentive to both my cats. She played with them, pet them, gave them treats and asked really good questions. We’re excited to have her sit for us in the future.
Our request was very last minute and Michaela was nothing but flexible and attentive to our cats needs. The meet and greet was really reassuring and her communication was great, we felt at ease knowing there was someone there for their feeding and litter care. I will definitely book with her again!
Charlie was absolutely lovely. Very professional while still being friendly and not too formal. Communication was clear and prompt from the planning of the meeting to the actual visits caring for my dog. Definitely will be reaching out again when I next need a dog sitter

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Peabody on Rover is $21.25 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 9,976 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Peabody. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
