“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!”
“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 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.
“Keelyn is amazing with my difficult cat. She’s kind, calm and very patient with our girl, Cali. I highly recommend her for pet sitting. I felt so happy to be away without worrying how things were going at home with the cat. Hiring anyone to come in my home while I am away was an uncomfortable feeling but Keelyn’s personality and experience put me at ease.”
“Keishly is awesome. Very attentive and communicative. After our initial meet & greet I was sure I was leaving my dog in great care and she proved me right. So grateful for the way she took special care and attention to my girl Minzi.”
“Natali was fantastic with our 100lb rescue dog. Natali made our dog comfortable from day 1 which is quite a feat considering that our rescue is not particularly interested in people. In fact she's often skittish and may submission pee if scared but with Natali that never happened. She knows the right energy to bring around a rescue, she was on-time for every drop-in, she's quick to respond to messages, and she followed every instruction to a T. I would highly recommend Natali to anyone who needs a sitter”
“Laura was a lifesaver for my family! We had a last minute emergency and needed someone to help take care of our cat. She took great care of him every day for a few weeks. It was such a relief to have our cat in safe and caring hands while we were out of town. I highly recommend Laura for any and all help.”
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."
About: My dog of 18 years walked 6 miles a day through the streets of Salem. Currently looking to keep up the pace with new furry friends 🧡 I am a full time local realtor with Merry Fox. I own my days and I am looking to walk mornings, the earlier the better. Following directions from your mom and or dad is as important to me as it is to you. You know your baby better then anyone.
About: Just here to take that worry off your plate completely and replace it with real peace of mind. This is incredibly personal to me because I’ve always believed pets are family. What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the lifetime of hands-on experience I’ve had with animals and the calm, attentive care I provide. I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs and have continued to be around them ever since, so being around animals feels very natural to me. When caring for pets for friends and family, I’ve often watched multiple animals at once, usually two or three dogs along with a few cats, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I’m experienced with everyday pet care tasks such as walking, playtime, bathroom breaks, feeding schedules, and administering medications when needed. I also make it a priority to give each pet attention and care tailored to their individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I currently work full time, so I’m typically available for pet care in the afternoons and evenings during the week, as well as on weekends. Depending on the location, I may also be available for visits during my lunch break on weekdays. I’m happy to work with owners to find times that fit their pet’s routine and make sure they receive consistent, reliable care. Unfortunately I currently live in an apartment that doesn’t allow pets, but I have a cat who lives with my parents, so I’m very familiar with daily pet care and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I make sure to stick to the pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also treat every home with respect, keeping things clean, secure, and making sure pets feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away.

I’ve just begun volunteering at an animal shelter in Salem to lend a helping hand to all the animals that are waiting to go to there furever homes! I have such a passion and unconditional love for all animals I hope you will give me the chance to help care for your fur baby!
About: I have had animals and cared for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. Family and friends have relied on me to watch their animals both in their own homes and at my home. My family dog, who is now 16 years old, has been cared for by me several times in the past. I recently finished graduate school and am seeking out a full time job, and at the moment I have plenty of free time to spend with and care for your animal. I am flexible to make my schedule around the needs of your pet. I have nice grassed areas and large side walks near my apartment where I can walk your dog. My apartment is safe and comfortable for long term stays.
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.
“Jamie did a fantastic job again watching our pets!! We got home and it seemed like they had a great time, they’re all tuckered out and relaxing. Would trust her with our fur babies any time!”
“Paloma was available to visit my dogs last minute. She was communicative and even stopped by to meet them before the visit. Everything went as planned and I’m thankful for her care of my girls! Thank you!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have almost always had one as an adult. I’m comfortable with all breed big and small and have trained many dogs, including stubborn pitties and enthusiastic goldens. I just adopted my foster pup Remy who is the best girl. I love dogs and will treat yours like they’re mine. I can’t wait to meet your pup and go for a frolic! I currently am unemployed and filling my days with walking pups and volunteering. My schedule if pretty flexible. I’m on a pretty standard schedule for wake up and walks. I live in a 2nd floor apartment of a 2 family, so I can’t take dogs out there for a quick pee. I go for 2-3 walks a day with my pup. I’m adaptable for your pups schedule when sitting.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Peabody
Tawny was wonderful. She met with me for initial "meet and greet" right away, and my kitty loved her from the first moment. My kitty (over 20 yrs old) is normally shy and hides away from new people, but warmed up to Tawny right away. Tawny is kind, gentle and truly loves animals. She visited my kitty every day, and I got heart-warming photos via text from each visit. When I got back, kitty was happy, contented, as if I never left home. I am very happy that I found Tawny and can trust her with my furr-baby, when I travel from now on.
Kirssy was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She made me feel so secure in all the care and love she was giving to them while I was away. She sent tons of photos and videos and has been extremely communicative since I first messaged her. I can’t recommend her enough, and I will be using her for future visits for sure!
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.
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Peabody is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $28 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 9,879 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Peabody. 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 Peabody. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% 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.
