Courtney was great with Zoe. We really appreciated the time she spent with Zoe at our home. We loved the photos of them hanging out together.

About: I’ve been caring for pets of all energy levels and ages for over 10 years, ranging from energetic puppies to anxious seniors. I’ve had my own dogs for 15 years, and I love spending time with all pets whenever I get the chance! I’m also happy to care for cats and/or exotic pets. If you're looking for an attentive, reliable, and gentle pet sitter, I'm your person! I'm currently residing in the Upper Valley, and I work daily as a high school teacher. I can provide check-ins and walks during the afternoon. I’m not able to keep animals in my own home, but I am more than happy to stay in your home overnight to keep your pets comfortable.

We have two dogs, one with a little anxiety, but as soon as he met Kathryn he was put at ease. She is so kind and thoughtful and gave our dogs so much love while we were gone. You could tell how happy they were to be playing with her in the photos that she sent. The last photo they looked so sad when she was leaving. We highly recommend Kathryn, she was amazing!!

Kaya watched my cats while I was away for a weekend trip. She stayed in touch the whole time and was flexible when setting up a meet and greet beforehand. Great sitter!

Julia is fantastic- she went above and beyond to take care of our very old cat while we were away. Her notes were helpful and put us at ease knowing our cat was in good hands.

About: If my rates are an obstacle in caring for your pet then I’m happy to provide a sliding scale and have a discussion upon request. Professionally, I was vet assistant at an animal clinic before returning to farm animal work. At the clinic I learned the basics of animal health care and I learned how to properly handle dogs and cats. Throughout the last twelve years I’ve farm-sat and pet-sat for numerous friends and family members! In the last year I worked at a doggy daycare and worked groups of 11-12 large dogs. I also worked in group of 15+ small dogs and "solos" (highly dog aggressive dogs). Working in that environment took me to the next level of understanding cues and dog behavior. I learned to advocate for dogs, look for health and safety warning signs and how to manage group dynamics. I am currently a *human* nurse and making time for animals because that is where I feel I really come alive. :) I believe that animals are part of the family and I will treat them like so. I have basic experience with dog training and I personally believe that dogs thrive in structured and predictable environments. I love exercising and having fun with dogs, too! I have availability to help you with your pup or cat! Depending on the health of your pet I will socialize and exercise your pet's body and mind and of course offer any snuggles that are welcomed. I love exercising animals as much as it is tolerated by them. I currently work per diem as a staff nurse in Lebanon NH which gives me a lot of flexibility to care for pets. I am happy to abide by your house rules and expectations for your pet(s). I enjoy walks to dog parks, trails, playing in fenced yards and practicing obedience and tricks!

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for years through family, friends, and neighbors. I'm responsible, patient, and genuinely love animals. Whether it's walks, feeding, playtime, administering medications if needed, or simply providing affection, I'll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I treat every pet like they're my own. I currently work part-time, and my schedule allows me to be available most afternoons after 3:00 PM, as well as early mornings, evenings and weekends. This flexibility allows me to provide dependable, consistent care and give your animals the attention they deserve. I'm happy to work with your schedule to ensure your pet's routine is maintained while you're away. I have experience caring for senior dogs that require daily medication, as well as a younger dog with lots of energy. I always follow care instructions closely, stick to your pet's routine, and treat both your pet and home with the same care and respect I would my own.

Hariala was very responsive and timely in communicating. She took good care of our cat during holiday and the cold storms, and helped us get food refill when the feeder was running low. Excellent sitter!

We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! Eva was incredibly communicative throughout our time away, providing thoughtful updates and photos twice a day that gave us complete peace of mind. It was clear our kitties were receiving excellent care and plenty of attention. Eva was punctual, reliable, and professional, and we truly appreciated the effort she put into keeping us informed. Knowing our pet was in such caring and capable hands made it so much easier to enjoy our time away. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!

About: Animals bring me so much happiness. I lived in a household with dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens and lizards for several years. I loved starting my day with them every morning. They all have their own special personalities. It would be my pleasure to spend time with your pets and make them feel loved and cared for. I will provide exercise and playing, medication administration, provide your pet with fresh food and water or just some cuddle time if needed. If you need additional services I am more than happy to try and accommodate you. Our pets are a part of our families and I will do my best to make sure they feel happy, safe and comfortable in their environment. It's all about the animals for me. I have a pretty flexible schedule and love to stay busy. Nothing makes me happier than filling my days caring for your pets. I am coming into your home and want your animal to be as comfortable as possible. I want to make sure their daily routine stays the same and they feel safe, relaxed and happy with me.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Strafford

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 113 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Strafford. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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 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.
