“We are so happy we found Jodi! Our kitties are very special to us and she took extra care and made sure we were informed of everything and sent photos while we were away. We also loved that she has experience working in vet offices, since two of our babes are senior cats that have some prescriptions that needed to be administered with their food. Our kitties actions say it all, because they usually run and hide at new people and she got them to eat, come out and play and be at ease 💜 We would definitely book Jodi again!”
“Heather was wonderful with my cat. We've only lived here for 3 weeks,so she's a bit nervous about people coming in and out of the house. Heather was calm with Teaghan. I got photos and even a follow up after I got home to see if Teaghan ate her food!”
“There's nothing like coming home from a day trip to relaxed, happy pups. Danielle always sends pictures, is sensitive to the opposing needs of both my dogs and has even brought in packages! A+”
“Jeanne was great and very responsive. I had full confidence my cats were being well cared for while I was away. I would definitely recommend Jeanne and hope to reschedule her services for future dates.”
“Anthony has been absolutely wonderful with our young puppy (from 10 to 14 weeks)! He has taught him to walk with manners and helped us with tricks! Our puppy absolutely adores him — we will continue to rebook! Thank you so much, Anthony!”
“Jaimie was absolutely fantastic with Madeline! She took care of everything from feedings and litter maintenance to cleaning up unexpected hairball messes. She gave Madeline so much love and sent the best photo updates throughout the stay. I’m so grateful for her attentive care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sweet, reliable pet sitter!”
About: My name is Kathryn and I go by Katie, I’m 20 years old I’ll be 21 in July. I live in Derry NH and I can’t wait to help out families who need it! Leaving your fur baby at home can be stressful. Trust me, I love mine so much. But I’m here to make sure there is nothing to stress over and that they are well taken care of. Over the years I’ve cared for many dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities and truly enjoy making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I used to groom dogs, clip nails, walk dogs for as long as needed, and feed them daily or multiple times a day whatever is needed. Along with any medications they need as well. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets. I can also send update pictures or videos to my clients and make sure they know I’m doing exactly what they asked for! Im a very active person who loves working out so when im not at Pilates or doing school work im free, but im very able to manage my time. Im free all the time this summer may-august mornings and evenings. So just give me a heads up! And I’ll be free on weekends during the months after this summer. My top priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I live in a home away from busy roads, and pets will always be supervised in a safe environment. During walks, I always keep dogs on a leash, clean up after them, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I’ll also follow any specific routines or instructions to make sure your pet feels right at home.
“Karen did a great job and my little kitties loved her, each being playful. She was patient with my Sophia who is a picky princess. Karen also helped with shutting a forgotten window and cleaning up an unfortunate hairball. I look forward to having her care for my girls again.”
“Michaela was super great to work with! She very considerately took time to do a meet and greet with my kitties so we could all feel comfy. The day of our booking she very kindly messaged me to confirm feeding instructions (I did a bad job— good learning experience for me!) and took lots of photos. I’ll definitely book with her again! 😊 Thanks, Michaela, you made this nervous first-timer feel so much more at ease!”
“Dalyce is professional and dependable and a very good communicator. Most importantly, she has a great disposition for both my anxious shephard and super mellow senior. Felt very comfortable knowing they were in her care.”
“Sorry Im so later with a review .Chelsea did a very good job taking care of Fred ,she gave him his insulin shots twice a day ,did a good job taking care of his food ,water and tray .Sorry you moved I would have you take care of Fred any day .”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Sandown
Jodie is awesome! She sent pictures of my kitties and updated me with how they were doing each day. One of my cats takes medication twice a day and she made me feel comfortable while away. I knew she sat with him and was patient and made sure he was taken care of.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Sandown on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,908 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sandown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sandown stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sandown. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
