“Amanda was very communicative and attentive to our cats while we were on vacation. I'd definitely use her services again and recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. Thanks, Amanda!!”
“Rihanna was wonderful with my anxious girl, Lua. She was patient and took time to let Lua get comfortable with her. I was so nervous to leave Lua, but Rihanna did such a great job with the Rover card updates, I was at ease while away. Highly recommend her, and will definitely be using her services again.”
“Beverly did a fantastic job caring for our kitties while we were away. We came home to happy, healthy cats—and it was clear they had been well loved and looked after. Her attention to detail and genuine care gave us great peace of mind. We’re so grateful for everything she did and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
About: Thanks for considering me to be your sitter! I’m coming back to Rover after taking a break from the platform and would appreciate the opportunity to work with you. As a dog owner, I know how hard it can be to find the right person to trust and care for your pet. I love animals and will do everything I can to make sure yours is well cared for. Trust and safety is my top priority. I’m a dog owner and have experience working with all kinds of dogs with different needs. I enjoy getting outside and being active so always happy to care for dogs with a more energy but also just as happy to hang out with mellow dogs who like to relax. I’ve also had cats in the past and happy to care for them as well. During the week I work remotely and my job provides good flexibility. I am available most mornings, afternoons, and early evenings on weekdays and some weekends. Safety and the well-being of your pet is my number one priority. If you have any preferences or requirements for your dog or cat I’m happy to accommodate. Depending on your needs I can provide food, treats, crating, walking, indoor/outdoor play and more. Just let me know!

I’m currently a sophmore in college and will be living at home and commuting. Pet care will be responsibility and priority in my hours away from school! I would love to walk, play, and show tons of affection to the dogs and cats under my care! I have always kept my animals happiness and safety my top priority and am continuing that idea :)
About: Hi there! My name is Allison, and I'm excited to share that I’m opening up my schedule to take on more pet sitting clients! 🐾 Caring for animals has always been my passion, and I’ve been pet sitting for about six years now. Over the past two years, I’ve grown a loyal base of repeat clients, and with my schedule opening up a bit, I’m ready to welcome more furry friends into my routine! I'm currently in school studying to become a veterinary technician and also work at an animal hospital — so you can trust that your pets are in caring, capable hands. Whether it's playtime, long walks, snuggles, or special care needs, I'm all about making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. At home, I have two energetic dogs and two sweet cats of my own, so I understand how much your pets mean to you — they’re family. I’d love the chance to meet your pups (or cats!) and help keep their tails wagging while you're busy or out of town. Hi there! I wanted to share a bit more about my availability and services for pet sitting and drop-in visits. For in-home dog sitting, I’m primarily available Friday through Sunday, as those are the days I have off from my job at an animal hospital in Londonderry. I find weekends are ideal for pet sitting since I can spend more quality time with your pets and give them my full attention. That said, I’m also open to weekday bookings — I just like to be transparent about my schedule. I work Monday through Thursday with shifts from 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM, except for Wednesdays, when I work 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM. If you're located near my workplace, I do get a one-hour break during the day and can check in around noon, which can be a great option if your pets are comfortable being alone for a few hours. Services & Pricing: * 30-minute drop-in visits: $20 per visit * 3 or more visits in one day: Discounted to $50 total instead of charging over 60 * In-home sitting: Starts at $50 per night Pricing may vary slightly depending on the number of pets or special care needs, but I’m always happy to work with you to create a plan that suits your pets and your budget. My goal is to make sure your animals receive loving, reliable care while keeping things affordable for you. If you have any questions or would like to discuss a customized plan, feel free to reach out — I’d love to connect and meet your furry family! I take safety very seriously, at my home I have a fenced in yard it is short though so any dogs who could jump or have a history with being a little mischievous stay on a 15 foot lead. I am insured as well! If the stay is at your home then I follow your rules to the best I possibly can to keep your pup safe and happy at all times!
“Kelsey is an amazing pet sitter! She came over to meet myself and my cat prior to the visits and my cat loved her right away! Getting her updates was the highlight of my days while I was away. Came home to a very happy kitty! I will for sure be using Kelsey’s services again!!”
About: My name is Ashley I have grown up with dogs of various sizes in the house. I am a lover of all animals and have spend a majority of my life caring for my own pets as well as other! I have a flexible schedule so I am here to help with your pets needs! My schedule is flexible. I’m in the restaurant industry so my schedule is always changing. Shoot me a message for what your requirements for your schedule are! I live alone and have a dog park right outside my apartment and my complex has all private roads to walk your fur baby on safety!
About: With being between jobs, I am home most of the time. Your pup will have a friend to play with during the whole stay with my dog, Fenway. I am currently in between jobs so I am home pretty much all of the time. I do have a dog at home. He’s a six year old fixed male husky. He’s super playful still but also loves to sleep. We go to the Derry dog park pretty often but we can skip it if you’re not comfortable with it. I may not have a fenced in yard however I do have a side yard with a screw in the ground 30ft runner that my dog uses and can be utilized for your dog as well. I do have a large crate if needed I can set up. Your pup is more than welcome on the couch or bed as my dog is a bed/couch dog but I can also make sure they stay off if needed. We have SO many dog toys so you won’t need to bring your own however I know dogs have favorite/comfort toys (mine doesn’t destroy toys so your pups toys would be safe.)
About: I have worked in doggy daycares and worked for their pet walking service as well. I am currently in training for canine and feline nutrition. Neighbors come to me for their dog walking needs! I am currently not working as I am a full-time online college student. Online school allows me to complete my work on my own time, so I am very free to care for your pets! I offer overnights and drop-in visits, whatever makes you more comfortable! While I am caring for your pets in your home, I will maintain their schedule to the best of my abilities. Having their parents away can be stressful enough, so I do not want to cause anymore stress on your babies! They will receive walks and/or outdoor play depending on their usual routine, and indoor play during inclement weather.
About: I have had 3 dogs and 1 cat in my lifetime. I have been asked by multiple neighbors to watch their pets while their away. I love to take them outside for walks aswell as play with them. I am a high school student so time is very limited for me. I have available Monday and Tuesday after 4! Availability is also possible on weekends. I have a fenced yard at my house for safe play. I do not have any pets currently so there will be no possible tension between other pets.
About: I have 8 years of professional pet sitting and dog walking experience as well as a certificate in basic dog training. I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes. I have three dogs of my own as well as farm animals. I really enjoy working with animals! I work mostly mornings and afternoons Monday-Fridays but I can be accommodating for weekend or evening visits depending on my children’s schedule and advanced notice I treat every animal as if they are mine. I have experience with many breeds, sizes and temperaments. I can read a dogs body language well. I will provide amazing care that includes belly rubs, walks and treats/water
About: I have extensive animal care experience such as but not limited to- fostering dogs with disabilities, training puppies, caring for senior animals, caring for multiple animals at a time, and administering medications. I have a special place in my heart for “difficult” pets- the ones that make leaving them seem impossible- I am happy to work with you and your pet to make it happen! I am committed to keeping them on the same schedule they are used to- maybe with a little extra spoiling- it is vacation after all. I am very experienced in keeping all animals in their same routine. Keeping your animals safe and happy is my number one concern! I know how hard it can be to leave your animals and want them to be as comfortable as possible!

“I admit I’m biased as Annie is my daughter. However, she is very responsible and has years of experience working with animals.

Krista P.
“I am very pleased to write a "testimonial" for Krista. In addition to being a wonderful, caring person, she loves obviously loves animals. I've had three dog walkers, and she is by far the best. Our previous walker employed Krista. The employer was getting out of the business. Krista began walking our dog, Buddy in October 2019, Sadly, we had to euthanize Buddy last month on June 27. Even that day, Krista knew the end was near and just encouraged him to go out to our backyard with a ball. She genuinely cared for Buddy, always speaking to him lovingly, always being careful with him, making certain that his harness and leash were properly attached. In addition to walks, she would take him to our back yard and play ball with him. She always ensured he had fresh water. Krista was always extremely punctual. On the rare occasion when she was delayed, she always messaged me. On a personal note, while grocery shopping with my husband, I had the misfortune to fall and break my arm late one Sunday afternoon in 2022. We ended up at the Lahey hospital and had no idea when we would get home. I called Krista and told her what happened. She willingly went to our home, and fed Buddy and let him exercise in the yard. She was a lifesaver that day. She goes above and beyond what is expected. Our Buddy was a lab/shepherd mix--a big dog. She managed him well, and in his final months when his back legs were failing him, would lovingly lift his back half up the patio stairs. Her love for animals is sincere. She has many, and we've shared tears over a couple of her dogs who died from cancer. I would trust her in any circumstance. She is intelligent, articulate and warm-hearted. I truly miss seeing her on a daily basis now that my Buddy is no longer with us. If I can provide further information, please call me. I enthusiastically recommend Krista for your company. And Buddy would approve with an affectionate "woof"!”
Alie L.
“Alie is an amazing pet sitter. I have had her watch my mini golden doodle countless times and he never wants to leave! Alie provides tons of updates and pictures throughout the day and I know her and her family are giving my dog plenty of love. She also has a nice large fenced in yard for the dogs to play. I will definitely be going back to Alie!”
Jessica J.
“I would highly recommend Jessica. She is very caring with my spoiled girls & they are so happy to see her when she comes to visit. She is responsive, flexible & professional.”
Erin M.
“When Erin first met our female Shepard they hit it of immediately! She helped us out when we really needed it. She is great and I highly recommend her.”
Destiny L.
