“Nicole has been fantastic with Avery and Cody. She's great with them, she's great at providing updates on every visit and we will be continuing to use her services as much as possible.”

About: My whole life as long as I remember I was the biggest pet lover. I had my own pets and I’ve taken care and walked the dogs of my neighborhood. I just love them. I work part time, which gives me a lot of time to do my favorite thing: pet sitting!!! I work part time and have a lot of time for my favorite hobby which is caring for these lovely creatures. I have a fenced in yard and I love walking in the woods with the doggies. I have a fenced in yard and I walk the dogs three times a day. My 2 lovely dogs will keep your dogs company. I will make sure they are spoiled.
About: My love for animals started when I was little. I grew up helping take care of my own family dog. At the age of 18 I adopted my first dog and was solely responsible for her care. I’ve always helped out family members and neighbors with their animals. I also worked at Davis Farmland which gives me experience with many different animals. I tend to pet sit for people who have multiple animals. I take care of 4 dogs and a cat for a friend and it is my favorite job!! I also have experience cat sitting and bunny sitting! At the moment, I’m looking for work. I am hoping to make pet sitting a part time job or even full time job. It would make me so happy to work with animals every day! When caring for pets in a clients home, I make sure to have all the information needed to care for the pet(s) properly. Every animal is different but I’m confident I can always give the best care to any animal. I’m very responsible and will make sure the house stays clean and all doors stay locked.
About: I have experience caring for all different types of animals, ages, and medical knowledge. Growing up I learned how to take care of horses, equine medicine, rehabilitation, and overall animal body language. I’ve always had dogs of different breeds (huskies, Akita/Shephard mix, corgi, pit bull/cattle dog) so I am very familiar with different needs, energy levels, and breed characteristics. I’ve had various different animals such as cats and Guinea pigs and truly call myself an animal lover. I am fully capable of handling all different sizes and dogs in various stages of their training. I am capable of keeping up with a puppy or a senior who needs special care. I am your all around sitter. I am currently attending MCPHS full time for dental hygiene so I will be attending classes during the day. I am able to provide care before I leave for classes, and after during the afternoon or evening depending on the day. I am around full time on the weekends to provide undivided attention and during school breaks/holidays. I understand how important it is to follow detailed instructions, I am very conscientious of medical needs, taking proper care of your home as if it were my own, taking care of your dog as if it were my own, and always being responsible and diligent about what training and behavioral needs/weather sensitivities your dog may have.
“Erinn was amazing. She was always helpful as my cat was recovering from spinal surgery and required more than just feeding. Her experience as a vet tech was invaluable. She never missed a beat and my cats both love her. I cannot recommend her enough !!!”
“Helana did a perfect job! My cat was comfortable enough to go right up to her and play. She gave me peace of mind that he was okay. I have zero complaints. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Esmeralda was FANTASTIC. My husband and I were out of the country for 5 days and we were in need of care for our English bulldog and senior French bulldog. Esmeralda did an outstanding job of communicating, providing gentle care, timely visits multiple times a day, doling out medications, keeping the house clean, sending follow up photos and more. I will absolutely be booking her again and would recommend her to anyone who needs professional and compassionate care for their pets.”

“Lindsay was fantastic! We went away for 3 days and Lindsay did a great job taking care of Gracie. She sent us multiple photos each visit and her girls were great with her as well.

Or if you prefer me to do drop-ins to your home id be more than happy too! Whatever makes you and your precious fur baby happy.:) Note: I do have a 3.5 year old who usually accompanies me with my regular clients. If you choose me as your sitter this is good to note because I will only be able to be solo on some weekends. She has been around multiple different types of animals big and small since she was born. She is good with being gentle and knowing her boundaries but I recognize she’s still young so I can assure you constant supervision will be had for the safety of your fur baby and my baby.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rochdale
Bill has been caring for our 3 pups for nearly 3 years! To our three pups he is.... Uncle Bill! They get so excited and happy to see him every time he comes to see them whether it is for a quick or extended visit! They are so very comfortable with him!! Bill is by far one of the best friends our pups have and we fully trust him in caring for them when we are away and our house. You would truly be lucky to have Bill care for your furbabies!
We couldn't be happier with the service the Bill provides. He goes above and beyond with his care for our pets. Always courteous, compassionate and professional. We are very comfortable with him coming and going from our home and know that our pets are in the best hands when we leave them in his care. The biggest bonus is that our pets adore him and get so excited when we tell them that Bill will be coming for a visit. They just love their time with him which makes it a little easier when we need to leave them behind. Thank you, for all you do for us Bill! :-)

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Rochdale is $31 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $35 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 October 2026, there are 2,330 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Rochdale. 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.
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 Rochdale 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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
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.

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.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
