About: I've taken care of my family and friends pets since young, I have experience in bathing, feeding and playing with them to make sure they are happy and satisfied. I've worked with all size and breeds of dogs as well as cats and smaller pets I'm working part time and go to collage but have plenty of time to care for wonderful pets as well as give them my full attention and care. I am an animal care Assistant in training in hopes of becoming a vet. I live in a small area perfect for dog walks and near a big park that's perfect for their play time. I do allow pets on my furniture as such they will have a comfortable bed at their disposal.
“Jamie was terrific for Drop-In visits for our golden retriever! Responsive, timely, reliable, great communicator and updates. Best part was how comfortable our pup was with her and happy she was when we got home. Clearly well cared for and loved while we were away. Highly Recommmend!”


About: I have had pets my entire life and could never live without them. I have three dogs and three cats and would love the opportunity to take care of your babies the way you wish you could while you are away. My schedule is extremely flexible and I would love to further discuss together what works best for you and your fur babies needs sometime soon. I visit your home and take care of your pets in the environment that they know and are most comfortable. I will also do neighborhood walks, dog parks, and vet visits depending on arrangements.
About: I’ve owned pets my whole life, I have an interest in caring for animals, I’ve been working at a dog daycare and enjoy it very much. It’s definitely helped me gain a lot of experience and confidence in working with animals. I currently work part-time five days a week with weekends off, I’ll definitely be able to get in some beloved pup play time and care any weekend day and a day during the week could work as well. A time in the morning or mid afternoon would fit well. I currently have 3 cats and they are strictly indoors but during spring, summer, and fall they go outside for a brief time monitored. I can take your dog or cat outdoors whenever they need and if needed I can crate your pup, as well as take them outdoors when needed and/or for playtime and fresh air. I am comfortable taking dogs for walks down the street or just simply playing in the backyard which ever is preferred by the client.

“Robyn was very friendly and communicative throughout her drop-in visits to check on our cats. We received daily pics and updates — we will definitely have her back and we highly recommend Robyn!”

“Watanya is the best cat sitter I’ve ever seen. She was consistent and thoughtful with our sweet senior cat. She fed and refreshed her water daily. After every visit, she sent an update with photos and videos so we could rest assured knowing our girl was in good hands. She really went above and beyond! Ombre ADORES her and we will certainly be booking her again! If you have a chance to work with Watanya, you should take it”

About: I provide dependable, loving care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, overnight care, medication support, or simply lots of attention and companionship, I treat every dog like family. I strive to keep pets comfortable, safe, and happy while giving owners peace of mind when they’re away. Since I was little I have always had a dog of my own who has always been well cared for! I am looking to help care for your animals, I am home all summer and looking to care for animals. I love going on walks with dogs, playing fetch with them or even keeping them company and feeding them. I can come to your house but also offer well trained dogs to spend time in my home as well if needed/wanted. I ask for clients to give/write clear detailed instructions for what they expect and want from me for there animal. I always pay attention to all the details asked of me while with the animal. I am always making sure the animal is safe.
“We are so happy we found Jodi! Our kitties are very special to us and she took extra care and made sure we were informed of everything and sent photos while we were away. We also loved that she has experience working in vet offices, since two of our babes are senior cats that have some prescriptions that needed to be administered with their food. Our kitties actions say it all, because they usually run and hide at new people and she got them to eat, come out and play and be at ease 💜 We would definitely book Jodi again!”

About: I’m a licensed veterinarian in Brazil and I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life. My father is a huge dog lover, so I grew up helping care for our family pets from a very young age. In Brazil, I had four dogs who are now happily living with my parents. Here in the U.S., I have my sweet mini Goldendoodle, Madalena, who is very friendly and loves having company. Because of my background in Veterinary Medicine and my lifelong experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, I feel very confident providing safe, responsible, and attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work at a coffee shop from 6:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. After 3:30 p.m., I’m fully available for pet care, including walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting. On Sundays and Mondays, I’m off from work and available all day for boarding, daycare, and other services. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first. I offer a calm, clean, and cozy home environment where pets can relax, play, and feel secure. My mini Goldendoodle, Madalena, is very friendly and gentle, which helps visiting dogs feel more comfortable and welcomed. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, I always follow their routine exactly as instructed—feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I’m very attentive to body language and behavior to make sure each dog feels safe, respected, and stress-free. I provide constant supervision when I’m home, lots of love and positive interaction, and a peaceful space where dogs can settle in comfortably. My goal is to make every pet feel like part of the family.
“Ann Marie was an amazing sitter for our two kitties! My first time using a sitter but she made the process seamless and gave us peace of mind. She even took time to take photos and give them treats. Couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely rebook next time we leave for vacation.”

About: I've been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, and these days I'm often the person friends and family call when they need someone to look after their pets. I've spent plenty of time walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they're well cared for while their owners are away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including larger, high-energy breeds. I enjoy getting to know each animal's personality and building trust with them. I've even trained my own cats to do tricks and respond to commands using positive reinforcement. Taking care of animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I take the responsibility seriously because I know how much people's pets mean to them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to provide walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. Outside of work, taking care of animals has always been a regular part of my life, whether that's spending time with my own pets or helping friends and family with theirs. Because I work a consistent schedule and plan my time carefully, I can be reliable and punctual when it comes to pet care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so it's something I genuinely look forward to rather than trying to squeeze into a busy schedule. I try to keep things as close to the pet's normal routine as possible. When I'm caring for a pet in their home, I follow the owner's instructions and make sure they're getting everything they need, whether that's walks, meals, playtime, medications, or just some company while their owner is away. I pay attention to each animal's personality and body language and adjust my approach accordingly. Some pets want lots of attention and activity, while others are happier with a quieter approach and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with both. Safety is always important to me. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I keep an eye out for anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure pets are comfortable, well cared for, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I make sure that I'm always available, and communication is a huge priority for me
About: I've been working with animals since I was 16. Now 27, I'm a canine specialist in training, a volunteer of six years at the mspca, a Field Investigator and Emergency Disaster Responder for ASPCA, and I foster different animals for the ASPCA. I have knowledge coupled with experience on many animals from cats and dogs to small and exotic animals. I can also offer creative and stimulating enrichment based on your dog's unique personality. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs along with kittens and senior cats. I have experience with pet medications and proper medicating techniques. Whether I'm caring for my own pets, a shelter pet looking for a home, or your little furry family member They will always be my top priority. Whether its feeding my cats or taking my neighbors dogs out I'm always up early and ready for a day of animal care! From start to finish My pets at home do not require much care as they are very independent fluff balls. But with all pets in general I use a positive reinforcement based training approach
About: I have never lived without an animal in my home as a child or as an adult. Animals are true members of the family. I have volunteered in animal shelters for many years, and still continue to do so. Therefore, I have experience with all ages, including seniors, administering medications and general care and socialization, and more importantly know how to calm and make an animal feel safe and at ease. I will love your pet, send photos, and take as much time as needed to be sure his/her needs are met. I recently resigned from working in a local school district and am now concentrating on volunteering in an animal shelter, an abused women's shelter, writing a book, visiting the gym daily and hopefully having the pleasure of taking care of many animals on Rover! I am presently fostering animals with positive thoughts they will find their forever homes soon! I treat my pets like they are one of the family. They are loved and adored. I recently lost my two cats, litter mates, one at 18 years old and one at 19 1/2 years old. They received had only the best diets, received the best medical care, and got all my attention. They were my babies. I would love to give your pet the best care ever as well!! I hope to get another pet soon in my home, after a bit of healing time.

About: I have cared for pets for friends and family for several years and have always loved being around animals. I also have an 11-year-old dog of my own, whom I trained from the time she was a puppy, which has given me experience with patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s unique needs. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and am currently in graduate school pursuing a career in mental health counseling. My education and experiences have strengthened qualities like patience, communication, empathy, and attentiveness, which I also bring to caring for pets. While balancing part-time work and graduate school, I maintain a flexible schedule. I’m fully available on Tuesdays and Thursdays in June, with additional availability most Friday evenings and weekend mornings. I treat every pet like my own, making their safety, comfort, and routine my priority. During walks and drop-in visits, I stay mindful of their surroundings, follow instructions carefully, and always double-check that doors, leashes, and gates are secure. I also enjoy sharing updates and pictures so you can feel at ease while you’re away!
“Beatriz was the perfect day sitter for us. She followed our detailed directions to a T and we are very happy with the service that she provided to us. We are so grateful to have her as a resource and look forward to hiring her again for our future trips out of town! Our cat loved her and your pet will too!”

“Lindsay was great!! I didn’t worry about a thing all weekend and knew that our dogs were in great hands. She updated us after every visit and sent the cutest pictures! Highly recommended!”

About: Hi, I’m Jay! 🐾 If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets as much as you do, you’ve come to the right place. Animals have been my biggest passion for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, snakes, and everything in between, and I truly believe every pet deserves personalized care, lots of love, and plenty of attention. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a cuddle buddy, playtime, meals, medication, a bath, or just someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I’m here to help! Long-haired pups or kitties that hate being brushed? No problemo! I’m happy to tackle the fluff so you don’t have to. 😊 One thing that sets me apart is that I’m constantly learning. I love researching animal behavior, enrichment, nutrition, and the best ways to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours feel safe and comfortable. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your best friend with someone else, so I’ll care for your baby like they’re my own. You can expect plenty of updates, adorable photos, and the peace of mind that your furry, feathered, or scaly family member is in loving hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your bestie! 🤍 I have a regular day job and I still have plenty of time to care and love your furry (or scaly) best friends! They’re in great hands! I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make the experience easy for both you and your pet. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll send lots of updates and pictures (because I know I’d want them too!) so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind. Whether your pet is super energetic, a little shy, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m very detail oriented and always pay attention to things like securely closing doors and gates, keeping dogs safely leashed on walks, and making sure your pet is happy and comfortable. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and feel confident that they were treated like family while you were away.
“Walter was so courteous and showed up on time every day and I could tell me animals were taken care of. He even offered more support for the animals for an extended period when my travel was impacted by the snow. He came 2x a day for my dogs and played with them and even stayed extra time s few times, and was able to give them medications and feed them, along with my cats as well. He was also very communicative, and followed instructions. I can tell my animals are happy. I will be using Walter again!”

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Plaistow choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
