About: As an actor and educator I am highly tuned into energy emotions and body language so I build trust with animals quickly. I have cared for shy anxious high energy and senior dogs and I meet them where they are. My goal is always the same a calm safe environment where your pet feels loved and understood. I am also a TrustedHousesitters sitter and I respect the responsibility of caring for both pets and homes. When appropriate my twin sister can assist during sits which means more attention more companionship and extra peace of mind. Bonus I provide paparazzi level photo updates because I know you miss them. I am a special education teacher and actor subbing part time so my schedule is flexible and pet focused. I plan my day around your dog’s routine with walks play enrichment and quiet hang time so they feel safe and settled. I am available mornings afternoons evenings and weekends. I create a calm structured environment where pets can relax and feel secure. My work in special education taught me patience strong observation skills and how to read nonverbal cues which helps anxious or sensitive dogs feel understood. I follow routines closely prioritize leash and door safety and keep spaces clean and peaceful. You will get regular updates and photos so you can fully relax while you are away.

About: I have been helping my mom (Barbara L) with Rover for a few years now. Many of you may have booked with her, as she takes a set back from Rover - I wanted to give it my 100% commitment. I enjoy being with dogs, I feel like they are my pals. I am comfortable with all different breeds & sizes. I enjoy playing with them, walking them, and I always end up bonding with every single one. I work from home, therefore I am always around ready to care for your dogs. I am super flexible so I can take them out, walk them, play with them around the clock. I have a fenced in yard, so the dogs have somewhere to go that is safe. We live in a peaceful safe neighborhood, so walks are always great. Our house is always comfortable for dogs, they always seem to feel right at home.

“Michael is great - we have used him a couple of times. He is very responsive when communicating and our two dogs really like him (and they aren't the easiest of dogs to sit for. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

“We were very happy with the job Victoria and Joe did watching Kai. We knew we were gonna need someone with experience to watch our two year-old 80 pound exuberant, Golden Retriever. When we came back, Kai was happy and well cared for. We also had a last minute change in Kai’s care routine. He needed prescription medicine to be given twice a day from the vet. They were able to take care of this no problem.”

About: I have 15 years of experience caring for dogs and truly love spending time with them. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and loving to care for your furry family members. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, daily routine, feeding schedule, and individual needs. I understand that some dogs require extra patience, especially those with sensitive stomachs, food allergies, or separation anxiety. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where every dog feels happy, relaxed, and cared for like family. 🐾❤️ Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I am a devoted dog owner myself. I enjoy spending quality time with dogs, including walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love and attention. I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine and will do my best to accommodate each pet’s individual schedule and needs. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a loving, clean, and calm environment where every dog is treated like family. As a dog owner, I understand the importance of proper feeding, supervision, exercise, and following specific care instructions. I pay special attention to dogs with food allergies, sensitive stomachs, or special needs. I will also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their furry family member is in caring hands.

We’ve had a wonderful experience with Susan. She is so incredibly kind and caring. Maggie absolutely adores her and gets so excited every time she arrives. She’s also been super flexible and accommodating with our schedule, which we really appreciate. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing Maggie is in such good hands. We highly recommend Susan 😊

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Sandwich

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Sandwich is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $28 per visit. 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 1,477 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Sandwich. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Sandwich 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.

To find sitters in Sandwich with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sandwich. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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.
