“Charley is absolutely fantastic! She is incredibly kind, considerate, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she looks after. She truly goes above and beyond, including taking my pup to off-leash dog parks when requested, and even going as far as Pierce Island, which is my dog’s FAVORITE place! I regularly work 10–12 hour days, and I can genuinely see a difference in my dog’s mood when I come home after she’s spent time with Charley. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s getting attention, exercise, and plenty of fun while I’m working. Charley is also wonderful with last-minute bookings and is always so accommodating. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. My pup absolutely loves her, and I’m so grateful to have someone I trust to take such great care of her! 🐾❤️”
About: I'm an experienced house and pet sitter with 30+ 5-star completed sits along the East Coast through TrustedHousesitters and personal referrals. I'm now offering my services through Rover in the Portsmouth area and 25-mile radius. I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, including senior pets, animals with anxiety or trauma histories, and pets with special needs. I'm comfortable administering medications and following detailed care routines. What you can expect: I learn each animal's routine rather than applying one approach to every pet. I send daily photo updates. I'm naturally tidy and leave homes clean and calm, and I'm glad to look after plants or a garden while I'm there. A few practical notes, so we can both tell early whether it's a good fit: 1. Meet & greet before every first booking. I require a video call or an in-person visit so we can both assess fit. You get to meet me and ask whatever you need to; I get to meet your pet and see the space. Until we've had that conversation, please treat my response as interest rather than a confirmed booking, and keep your other options open. I won't accept a booking before a meet and greet for house sitting. 2. Weekday availability. I see clients on video Monday through Friday, 10a–4p. I'm in the home the whole time, so your pets get frequent short breaks and company throughout the day, but I'm not available for walks or errands during those hours. I am able to support potty breaks during the 12:00-1:00pm hour. 3. Workspace. I need a desk or table at standard height with a supportive chair in a room with a door that closes, plus wifi that reliably holds a video call. I bring my own laptop, monitor, and stand, so I only need the surface and the space. 4. Pets I care for. Calm adult dogs and cats. I'm not currently accepting puppies under a year, and I'd want to talk first about dogs with a bite history, special medical needs, or significant reactivity. 5. Service area. Based in the Portsmouth/Eliot area; I generally take bookings within about 25 miles. 6. Notice. At least two days for new clients, and more when possible for longer stays. Tell me about your pet — their routines, quirks, and what makes them feel safest. I'd love to hear it! I work from home with structured hours, which allows me to be available for walks, feeding, medication schedules, playtime, and companionship at certain times of the day, roughly every 3-4 hours. My approach is calm and intentional. I honor your pet’s established rhythm and do my best to create a grounded environment that feels like home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to maintain a sense of safety, routine, and calm. I take time to learn your pet’s unique routines, preferences, and personality so I can offer care that feels familiar. In the home, I’m quiet, clean, and respectful of your space. I aim to leave things just as I found them—or better. I water plants, bring in mail, manage light tidying, and keep things running smoothly so you can return home with ease. I also provide thoughtful updates with photos and check-ins, so you feel connected while away.
“Justina was GREAT with our dog LC. We hired her for daily walks and she provided great exercise and company for our pup. She sent updates and photos. We will use her again! Thank you Justina!”
“Andy was very accommodating to a last minute booking and meet and greet. He left great commentary of the walk and some fun photos. Miller clearly had a great time with Andy. Would definitely rebook and recommend Andy to friends.”
About: As a devoted pet parent to a 20lb mini Aussiedoodle, I understand the importance of reliable and loving care. I'm experienced in providing daily exercise, administering medications, and offering comfort to pets with separation anxiety. I'm committed to providing peace of mind to pet owners, and I'm available for both scheduled and last-minute needs. Pet care is a priority. I build my schedule around the pets' needs, ensuring they receive consistent walks, feeding, and playtime. I have the flexibility to adjust my schedule as needed. I create a safe space for your animal by surrounding them with the toys they love. If they prefer to be crated or in a smaller area for comfort, I can accompany that!
About: As a passionate cat owner for over two decades and a frequent sitter for our daughter's dog I have lots of experience caring for and loving our furry companions. When we visit family and friends that have dogs, I'm the one sitting on the floor rubbing bellies while everyone else sits on the furniture. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and spending time caring for and bonding with them. After decades of a successful career in the software engineering field and a recent closure of my office, I'm embracing the unplanned change as a chance to get away from a desk. This leaves me with an open schedule and the flexibility to care for your 4 legged family members at any time you need. As the owner of 2 cats that have specific dietary and medicinal requirements, I understand that each client's pets can have unique needs that must be met. I will ensure that these needs are addressed accurately and consistently. I find great joy in bonding with animals and look forward to gaining their trust and companionship at the pace that they find comfortable. There is nothing more rewarding than an animal that is excited to see and spend time with you. My goal in turn is to ensure their owners trust me as well and can feel at ease while they are away from their precious family members.
About: I've been watching my neighbors dog along with cats and dogs of friends and family for 12 years now. I only work part time now and make my own hours so I have a ton of flexibility in my schedule. I love all animals and want to provide you with stress free pet care. I enjoy walks and work remote so I can fit your pet's needs into my schedule. I have 2 friendly cats and did have a Siberian Husky for over 16 years who crossed over last year. I love walking dogs and do have a small yard and live on a nice walkable street.

I’d love to help! 🐾💕 I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of room in my schedule to fit your schedule.

“Garrett was awesome with my pup Sumo! It was my first time leaving my dog alone with a Rover sitter and he was an amazing find. He was very communicative and was also flexible with me in scheduling.”
About: I offer animal communication readings for you and your pet. You simply ask your pet questions and I relay their answers! I have been a psychic for 13 years. I work for myself so I can create my own schedule. I do my animal communication calls over zoom and am pretty flexible in terms of days/times. I can do readings for any type of animal. Clients freaking love getting readings to feel closer to their pets! I care for pets by making sure they are seen and understood. Have you ever had a sitter that could actually talk to your pet? It's a game changer!

About: Hi, I’m Leah! Animals have been the center of my world for as long as I can remember, and I bring that same lifelong love and care into every visit, walk, or cuddle session. Whether it’s a long walk, playful games, feeding, or medication, I make sure your pets feel safe, happy, and loved—just like they do with you. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family, so I make communication and dependability my top priorities. You’ll always know how your pet is doing, and you can relax knowing they’re in capable, compassionate hands. Pet care isn’t my side gig—it’s my full-time passion. I’ve dedicated my schedule entirely to caring for animals, which means your pets get my full attention, flexibility, and consistency every time. Experience: I've been immersed in the world of pet care since I was young, starting at the tender age of 5 when my cat Spooky had a litter of kittens. Throughout my life, I've had the pleasure of caring for pets at every stage, fostering a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born and have helped care for them all my life as well as helping friends who also with their personal pets and rover pets as well. I usually wake up early and will be able to get them out in the morning before class then also later after classes as well. Service would be the same multiple walks a day along with playing in the house and sticking to the feeding schedule given by the owners.
About: I have always had a fondness for animals. I primarily took care of my family's pets growing up, as well as those of friends and family as an adult. I have been walking my own very large, strong dog for 4 years now and realized how much I love doing this for him and others. I am comfortable with any size and can handle those larger friends too. I am experienced in different types of leashes and collars and will happily work with the way you want your pet walked (including reinforcing training techniques you have). I have a very flexible schedule, particularly during "school day" hours. I can also do check ins during evening hours or on weekends schedule pending. I will work with you on your pet care needs. I will always treat your pet like my own and make sure they are safe and happy during a walk, adventure or a check in.
About: I have had all different kinds of animals in my life, including dogs, cats, ferrets, farm animals, reptiles, and more. I've taken care of animals ranging from senior dogs to newborn kittens and I've given them all the love that they need. I am available almost any day and time of day! Feel free to take a look at my calendar for my availability! I can't wait to take care of your furry friend(s). I am welcome to help your furry friend in any way you need. I will keep an open line of communication and send plenty of photos so you have the peace of mind knowing your best friend(s) are happy and healthy.
About: I love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities! I am responsible, dependable, and will treat every pet like my own! I also have experience with dog sitting and walking. I love being active and outside. I also am at school missing my puppies at home so I will give your all of the attention, this is just as much for me as it is for them! I am currently in classes so I am working around that but can be very flexible on weekends and Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays after 10 am! I have a huge fenced in backyard where I love to throw the ball and play with my pups. I also walk them around my neighborhood when I feel they need a change of scenery and some new smells!

Charley is absolutely fantastic! She is incredibly kind, considerate, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs she looks after. She truly goes above and beyond, including taking my pup to off-leash dog parks when requested, and even going as far as Pierce Island, which is my dog’s FAVORITE place! I regularly work 10–12 hour days, and I can genuinely see a difference in my dog’s mood when I come home after she’s spent time with Charley. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s getting attention, exercise, and plenty of fun while I’m working. Charley is also wonderful with last-minute bookings and is always so accommodating. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. My pup absolutely loves her, and I’m so grateful to have someone I trust to take such great care of her! 🐾❤️
If my dog could leave this review, I’m pretty sure I’d never hear the end of how much they love you. Thank you for treating my dog like they’re your own. Your kindness, patience, and genuine love for animals are so obvious, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re with someone who truly cares. Every walk, every update, and every bit of attention you give means more than you probably realize. Finding someone you trust with your dog is a big deal, and I hit the jackpot. Thank you for making my life easier and my dog’s life so much happier (even if you’ve definitely become the favorite). We appreciate you more than words can say, and I would recommend you to absolutely anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pup like family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Rye is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $31 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 1,683 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Rye. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Rye. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Rye after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rye. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
