About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, raising my dogs from just eight weeks old and caring for them through every stage of life\. My beloved Siberian Husky, Indie, was a rescue who needed extra patience, love, attention, and individualized care\. That experience taught me the importance of building trust, understanding each dog’s unique personality, and creating a safe, loving environment. I bring patience, reliability, attentiveness, and genuine affection to every pet in my care\. I understand that pets are family, and I will treat yours with the same love and dedication I gave my own. Being retired gives me the wonderful opportunity to spend my time doing something I love — caring for animals and taking nice, long walks in the woods\! I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care\. I enjoy staying active and being outdoors, so pet sitting and dog walking are a natural fit for my lifestyle\. I look forward to providing companionship, affection, and dependable care while giving pet owners peace of mind. Whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in their own home, I treat them like family. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment, follow their routines and instructions carefully, and give them plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and affection. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. My goal is to help every pet feel happy, secure, and well cared for while giving their owners peace of mind.
“Yassy house sat for my dog and two cats for over a week and a half while I was out of the country. She was excellent at keeping a consistent schedule and was quick to ask questions when something wasn't clear. Feedback I would offer her is to send more frequent updates / pictures versus me having to check in, but all in all it was a pleasure. Definitely set my mind at rest with my fur babies.”
About: Have had dogs and cats my whole life! Currently have two dogs and two cats Can tend to young and/or elderly pets Happy to spend as much of my time with pets as possible!! Pet care is a daily routine as I have an elderly dog who requires more involved care. I fit pet care in any where I can. My pets are my world and I know they are yours too, so I will take care of them as such. I prefer to go to the clients home so that the pet can be as comfortable as possible!
“Andy was wonderful. He did an amazing job taking care of our Anna. She's a large dog, 120 lbs, and many people are intimidated by her, but Andy was comfortable with her from the meet and greet. He followed our instructions, walked Anna as needed, was at our house during the times we agreed upon, and left the house neat and tidy. Andy excels at communication and sends photos regularly, which is reassuring when you're far away from home. He also texted and was quick to respond throughout our vacation and the booking process. We would definitely rebook him and recommend him to others. Sincerely Rebecca”

“Tati took wonderful care of our three pups, especially our 14 year old Westie. Tati was friendly and professional and took good care of the house while watching our pups. I highly recommend Tati and will request her again!”

About: Hi there — I’m a dedicated, experienced pet sitter with 10+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and personalities. I truly believe there’s no “one-size-fits-all” approach when it comes to our pets—every dog has their own routines, quirks, comfort levels, and needs, and I love taking the time to get to know what makes your pup feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether your dog is high-energy and playful, shy and cautious, older and in need of a slower pace, or has specific behavioral or medical needs, communication is everything. Please share any concerns, routines, triggers, fears, or special requests ahead of time—we’ll work together to make their stay as stress-free and personalized as possible. My home offers a large yard for supervised outdoor time, plenty of love, structure, and attention. I’m also a mom to two amazing kids (ages 5 and 7) who have been raised around animals and are very respectful of pet boundaries, body language, and personal space. For overnight stays, I do recommend bringing your dog’s crate if they’re crate-trained or may need a familiar, secure space for bedtime or decompression. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for—while you have peace of mind knowing they’re in loving, experienced hands. I’d love to meet your pup! 🐾 I can do overnights Wednesday Thursday and Fridays! Just reach out to me, schedule updated weekly for other services - overnights stay the same. Thanks! Your pet - your rules! I can play, snuggle, walk, feed, bathe your pet. I can crate your pet if requested. What you say goes!

“Brittany took great care of Wrigley and Etta while we were away at Disney World. Leaving Etta is always stressful because she struggles with separation anxiety and requires daily medication, but Brittany made the whole experience so much easier. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and pictures, let us know how they were doing, and made sure Etta got her medication. Both dogs got plenty of walks, attention, and love while we were away. The biggest thing for me was coming home to two happy, relaxed dogs. It was clear they were well cared for and comfortable with Brittany. Having someone we could trust with our dogs gave us so much peace of mind while we were gone. We would absolutely book with Brittany again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive to their pets.”

“Stephanie was fantastic! She was attentive to our three bratty hounds with their odd eating requirements and pill schedule, kept us up-to-date as to how things were going, and was as delightful as could be. We'd be happy to have her watch our crew again.”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog Bean (named after bean from the tv show Even Stevens because of my last name!) for almost 10 years. She has chronic medical issues that require daily medication. She’s also been dog reactive her whole life which has given me an entire new way of thinking when we’re on walks. If you’re concerned about your dog’s reactivity or size, don’t be! I’ve experienced it for 9 years and am able to accommodate to whatever they need. I currently work full-time from home, but have very good flexibility with my schedule. Meaning I can pretty much accommodate any schedule you might need. I’d treat your pets just like one of my own. My dog isn’t a dog, she’s like a child to me. She actually gets shredded deli meat with her meals or else she won’t eat it! They’d be spoiled just like my own.

I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I have experience dog walking and dog sitting. I am happy to meet all of your pets needs including special care. I am a full-time student, so I do not currently have time for a full-time pet, but I would love to care for your pet-family member part time whenever you are not around. You can feel safe and secure knowing your pet is in good hands with me! I am excited to meet your furry friend! I am available for afternoon dog walking, weekend daycare and house sitting as well as drop-in visits. I have class at different times during the week, so I am flexible with when I can care for your pet. Animals are family members. I treat dogs in my home with love and care. I enjoy taking them outside and playing with them. I understand that each dog has unique needs and likes/dislikes.
About: I have always had a love for animals especially dogs. I have two dogs of my own, one is 8 years old and the other is less than a year old. I have been taking care of my friends and families pets since I was 10. I am a student a the George Washington University in Washington D.C. and have been walking dogs regularly! I am looking for walks in between my classes and on the weekends! I’m very flexible with timing and can usually adjust my schedule to fit what works best! At my home both my dogs are create trained so I have a lot of experience with that. I also have experience with administrating meditation.

“Erin was fantastic with our 5 yr. old golden doodle at my home for 8 consecutive days and seven nights. On a rating scale from 1 to 10 I rate Erin a 15 plus. She took our dog Brandy for several walks during the day, played gun-ball, and fetch games with her all of which Brandy loves. Erin sent photos of the dog in the morning and late day as well every day with update comments. She kept the house spotless and even removed leaves off the walkways and deck as well. She even assisted me with the electronic programs in my treadmill. We are extremely satisfied with Erin,. Brandy loves her and i look forward to book future dog sitting with Erin through Rover. This was the first time we left Bandy with a sitter and Brandy meshed perfectly with Erin. Therefore, i am convinced that i will only allow Erin to be the sitter for Brandy moving forward and i thank her for her professional and above flawless service. Thanks, Tom”

Caelie cared for our dog as if he were her own; he was loved, walked, fed, and she kept up with our training regimen. Caelie’s communication is top-notch! She texted updates as needed and sent us photos regularly. There were multiple snowstorms during the time she cared for him and she took very good care of our home both inside and out. I highly recommend Caelie for your pet sitting needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Rye Beach is $32 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $58 per night. 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 1,057 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Rye Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Rye Beach walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Rye Beach maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Beach 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!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rye Beach. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
