About: I have always grown up with dogs all around me. My mom is a dog lover so we always had 1-3 dogs in the house at all times! I have a full time job during the week, 9-5 Monday through Friday, so I am looking to help on the weekends! I am available for drop in visits at any time on Saturdays and Sundays. I treat all animals as though they are my own. If I am taking care of your animals I promise to take care of them as I would my own pets.
“Madison was fantastic! She followed all of our instructions, and our kitten absolutely loved her. We also received wonderful photos that made us feel like we were right there with her. Highly recommend!”
“We felt so at ease having Marion take care of our cat, Norman, when we were out of town! She is an animal lover and took great care of Norman while we were gone. We 100% recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
“Sammi took excellent care of my two cats!- she was able to accommodate my request despite it being last-minute (which i try to avoid, but can happen!). She communicated very well & followed all my ridiculously detailed instructions! Definitely would recommend her to other pet owners 😊”
“Lydia has been pet sitting for us for nearly a year and she is wonderful, could not recommend her more! She’s great with all our pets who have varying medical needs and even our shy nervous cat loves when she comes by.”
“Lorenzo saved us when we had a last minute emergency with our two big energetic goldens. We never even met him but he took great care of our pups and fed our cats in our home over a couple of days! He was professional, responsive, and totally trustworthy. Will definitely book him for any future pup needs. Thank you, Lorenzo!”
About: I love dogs and have a beautiful almost 9 yo 1/2 Lab 1/2 GSP of my own who I fostered and then adopted February 2018; she will gladly keep your dog company and busy playing at my home. I have a large fenced in back yard 2 miles from downtown Portsmouth with plenty of room for the dogs to play and run around in. I am recently retired from Corp Amer, and am home with the dogs so they won’t be left alone. I will only take up to 3 dogs (dogs must be over 2 years of age and show zero signs of any aggression) in at a time for day care and 1 or 2 for boarding so your dog will get plenty of love and one on one attention. My prices may be a little bit higher than other people on this app, but that is because I’m only taking one or two dogs at a time and your dog is getting 1:1 care versus being in a rowdy kennel type environment with several dogs around. You can rest assured knowing I will care for your pets better than most. When I am walking your dog, I will engage with them, give them loads of attention, and will not be looking at/reading my phone. There are toys and tennis balls for them to play with in the yard and they will be let out every 2 hours for potty breaks and play, and can lounge around on the couches if they feel like it too. If they are 100% trained with recall, we go for 2 off leash trail enrichment hikes/ walks per day, otherwise they can be walked on leash around my neighborhood. At bed time, I play soft spa like music so the pups can sleep well and comfortable. I would like to have a meet and greet with all dogs and owners before they board at my home. My daycare rates are for up to 8 hours per day. If you drop your dog off at 8:30am, the dog must be picked up by 4:30pm otherwise you will be charged an additional half day rate. Latest pickup is 6:30pm. After 6:30pm it becomes an overnight. Drop offs must be before 6pm. I cater to dogs that need a little extra support and don’t do well in a chaotic kennel environment, which is why it is more of a “boutique “style service. (1:1) At the most, I might pop out for an hour but the dogs will not be left alone for more than an hour or 2 max. I have a large crate here if your dogs likes to be crated. I am not currently housesitting, only taking dogs in at my home. I do not book out months in advance. I generally only book out 1-2 months in advance. I am now currently only booking through Oct 2026. I let the dogs out every couple of hours for potty breaks and play. I will only take in 2-3 dogs max for daycare at a time and one or two dogs at a time for overnights, as to not overwhelm any of the dogs. This is a relaxed stress free environment for the dogs. I do not take in any dogs that show any signs of aggression.
About: Hi! my name is Ally! I have grown up with dogs my whole life, from Dalmatians to Jack Russell’s. I started volunteering at the NHSPCA in high school and discovered my love for helping & animals. I am a registered nurse and looking to fuel my hobby spending time with animals. I currently work full time in Dover, NH and bring my dog Poppy into the office with me. My family had a 12 year old blind Jack Russell named Sherman who was not friendly to other animals while we were growing up, so I am used to dogs on the more complicated side. I believe every animal deserves love and attention and I hope to provide that! My schedule is flexible on the weekends. I work full time but am home by 5pm so ai can do evenings as well. I love to keep animals in their routines. Even if it’s just being with them at home. I am a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter who cares a considerable amount for all animals. I will happily care for them like my own.
“Linda cared for my pets while we were away for a wedding. She was marvelous! Besides just feeding and walking them, she got to know them as individuals. Making sure that the more assertive cat didn’t eat the other cats food and learning how to manage the dog walks. She even let me know when there was a potential issue at the house…”

“I highly recommend Ceceiia! She took excellent care of our dog while we were away! She brought him special treats and we got a daily report with photos. Made our trip more enjoyable knowing our dog was in good hands!”
“Nicole was terrific! She did a great job getting our older & very shy cat to take her medicine and overall took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. It was great to know that they were in such good hands and we would definitely ask Nicole to sit for us again.”
“Haleigh was just absolutely wonderful! She was so communicative, punctual, thoughtful, and caring for our dog and even checked on our cats too. She gave updates and cared for every need, was so nice and friendly, took our pup for walks, outdoor play time, cuddles, washed food containers, and even brought our packages in from the rain. I can’t recommend her highly enough!!”
About: Hi! Heya! Hello! Are you looking for someone to care for your pet while your away? Well you've found them! Fun, energetic animal lover who can't wait to meet your pet! Drop-ins and Walking! Volunteer work with B.A.R.K, S.P.C.A, as well as experience working as a kennel assistant at Holiday Barn Pet Resort. Why I love dog sitting? I've always gravitated towards animals; I was that kid who brought home any animal that crossed my path, feeding strays, foresting. Growing up in a home where the pet to human ratio always favored pets, pet sitting is second nature to me. My experience administering medication I've done my fair share of administering medication to all sorts of animals. I am able to administer oral, injections, topical ointments, as well as suppositories. I currently work a dual remote position at NHPBS and have the flexibility to work from home which allows me ample time to provide the attention and care your pet requires. I’ll be an extension of your home and care. The goal is to provide a safe environment where your pet feels loved and has an enjoyable stay until your return.
“I cannot recommend Patrick enough. For every single visit with our pets, he went above and beyond our expectations. Patrick was highly empathetic when interacting with our pets and was he able to befriend them quickly. We have two dogs (one fearful), a cat, and a bird and Patrick was able to adjust his care perfectly for each of their individual needs.”
“Gracie is a true animal lover and it shows upon meeting her. I was nervous to try out Rover for the first time for my senior cat. Meeting Gracie calmed all my nerves - it was so clear she loves and respects all animals. She was prompt on each visit, took care of all my cat’s needs, and even brought him toys. I will surely check to see if Gracie is available anytime I need to be out of town for care of my boy.”

Krista was AWESOME. I booked her within the week I needed her services, so we didn’t have a chance to meet beforehand, but I left her detailed notes regarding what she needed to know when coming to our home to walk our dogs. Krista followed everything to a T, and sent lots of pictures. I got a detailed play by play of the visit, and it looks like my pups loved her. ❤️ They were certainly content when I got home. We will look forward to using Krista again for our puppies’ needs!

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 Rye 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 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.
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 .
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.

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.
