“We just moved here last week and were gone over Christmas so we had to find someone reliable to take care of our cat, Pancakes, on very short notice. Laney was extremely reliable, communicative, and helped relieve an area of stress for us over this holiday season. We will definitely continue to use her for cat care and also to take care of our pup in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young, but never got the opportunity to own one myself. I do have experience with dogs, including aggressive ones, anxious ones, seniors, and puppies. I’ve been trained on animal behavior and know how to correct inappropriate behavior. I worked full time at a pet board and daycare so I promise I understand dogs! I’m currently out of work due to some personal matters, but I am more than physically fit to take care of animals. I am pregnant and due in January, but that doesn’t stop me from being active! I currently do not offer pet care in my own home, but I do offer in-home pet care. Depending on your pet’s personality and their personal requirements I can pill pop medication, but I don’t do injectables. I can also bathe them if that is something you’re interested in. I do ask that if you have a reactive dog that you provide your own materials, whether it be a certain leash, collar, and/or muzzle while on a walk or during baths. Anything to make your pet more comfortable while in my care.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and dog parent who understands how important it is to know your pup is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I have experience with daily walks, enrichment, feeding routines, medication, and caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and very tuned in to canine behavior and body language. I’m happy to follow your dog’s established routine, whether that means an energetic adventure, plenty of sniffing and enrichment, or simply some company and affection at home. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want for my own and I’m always happy to provide plenty of updates and photos along the way! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet care a consistent part of my day. I’m available for regular weekly walks as well as occasional or last-minute visits, and I’m happy to work with your dog’s established routine. I genuinely enjoy being outside and walking, so giving pups the exercise, enrichment, and attention they need fits naturally into my day. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, comfort level, and any specific needs before heading out. I pay close attention to body language and surroundings on walks and am mindful of other dogs, traffic, weather, and potential stressors. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow instructions carefully, including feeding, medications, harnesses, gates, and any safety routines. I treat every dog with the same patience, attentiveness, and care I expect for my own.

About: Woof, Woof woof woof, ggrrrr (Hi, Wanna go play, lol) Hi, I have a pretty flexible schedule so am able to accommodate most people's requests. I love receiving pictures and updates from my Rover sitter when I'm away. I can do the same for you or we can leave it as no news is good news and you can focus on your vacation. Visits are customized to what works for you. My schedule is very flexible. When I have to run out on an errand, I'm happy to take your pup with me or he/she could stay at the house and relax. Safety precautions vary with each situation. I always welcome information from the client on this topic. This is one great thing about a meet and greet; to go over specifics❤️🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

About: I have a weiner dog named Benny whom I raised and trained since he was a puppy. I’ve cared for puppies post-neuter/spay surgery as well as walking and caring for injured dogs. I have experience administering medication to dogs and cats. I’ve housesat for friends to care for their cats and have lived with and cared for a cat for over 3 years. I love animals and I’m passionate about their well-being and quality of life. I know every animal is unique, and needs to be approached with that in mind. I’m currently working part time in the evenings for a couple hours so I have early morning to late afternoon available. I also have availability on weekends. I’ve spent time with many different kinds of pets and I feel confident that after spending a little time with yours, I’ll understand how they want to be approached and cared for. I raised my dog since he was a puppy and took part in his training so I feel confident with dogs of any age. I’ve spent many years around cats and know their mannerisms and the quiet language that they use to communicate. I’m meticulous and careful when walking dogs since I raised mine in NYC; I understand how to keep their attention and be firm when necessary to keep them safe and attentive on their walks. I want you to come home to a pet that is happy and healthy, above all.

About: From 🦀 to 🐴 (but no seahorse experience, sorry) I adore all creatures great and small, “and your little dog too” as someone who didn’t much like to get wet once said! Experienced, sincere and trustworthy housesitter and petsitter but new to this app, I’ll add some of my favorite fur-tography inevitably but many are passed away and it makes me sad. My undivided attention, I’m doing this because I love to, not because I’m bored. It’s worthwhile to me to be of use. To the old fashioned manners born, to treat another’s home with respect and care, to leave any place indoors or out of doors in a golden-rule adjacent way.

About: Experienced dog-owner, trainer of former AKC and Westminister champion, I have a unique background in caring for pets. Plus, my 13-year-old son and I are quite active. Places your pet will enjoy off or on leash may include: Crane's Beach, Wingarsheek Beach, Good Harbor Beach, Appleton Farms, Willowdale State Park, Plum Island, Maudsley State Park. Depending upon your dog's preference's and obedience/recall level, I can customize the time we spend together while you are out doing what you need to do. Mountain biking, hiking, swimming, a visit to Essex Coop for a treat, or, if time allows and you need someone to bring your dog to obility or agility classes, I can handle this with aplomb. And, there is plenty of cuddle time, down time we can work into the schedule too. Looking forward to working with you and your fur baby! I currently am self-employed so my schedule has great flexibility.

About: I am an energetic mom of two kiddos. Animals are my passion and I have felt a void since we lost our pooch last year. I love caring and playing with all animals! I have experience in not only caring for my own dog, but walking neighbors dogs. My little guys love to come on long walks with me either around the neighborhood or hikes in the trails of Beverly. I love tossing the ball or throwing sticks on the beach during the winter. When it’s hot outside, we might walk the trails to hidden brooks and streams so the dogs can take a dip and cool off! If you choose to let me care for your loved one, we will have tons of excercise and fun!

One of my dogs is very skeptical about new people but loved Courtney immediately. Both my dogs take medication daily (one twice daily), and this was no problem.”

About: I was a full time nanny for 6 years, caring for 3 children and 3 dogs (and a cat). Since my career change into the corporate world I’ve dog sat for friends and family. I have my own pup as well who loves other dogs. We live in a multi family on the first floor with our own large, private fully fenced yard. I work full time, but I am primarily remote which leaves me plenty of flexibility during the week. I’m also available most weekends and some holiday weekends. We have a fully fenced in yard and outdoor space that is only for our unit. We live in on the first floor of a multi family.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since age 10 and am trusted by family, friends, and neighbors with their fur-babies. I’m comfortable walking, bathing, helping train, and just hanging out with your favorite furry family member! I work remotely, so can drop by any time of day and am comfortable with furry friends of all shapes, sizes, and ages. :) As a remote worker, it’s pretty easy for me to get up and care for a furry friend whenever! My flexible schedule allows more time to hang during the week anytime, and sometimes on weekends. I care for pets within the client’s home, not my own — but as a girl who loves a rule book, as long as you outline your comfortability and your pup’s needs, I’m good to do whatever is needed!

About: I am an outgoing, animal lover who volunteers weekly at surrounding dog shelters. Although I do not have any professional experience, I do have a dog of my own and, as mentioned, volunteer to walk shelter dogs. I am able to walk, play with, or visit your dog during the day. Because I am a full time student, my hours do tend to vary.I love dogs and have had a passion for them throughout my whole life. I prefer no more than 2 dogs at a time, although I can handle 3. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact me ! I'm currently a full time student at Santa Clara University, so I do attend class 5x a week. However, I am completely free on weekends, and am available outside the hours 9am - 12:00pm. I am very flexible with times, and do not mind coming at any hour of the day as long as I am not in class. I am extremely comfortable with crating as well as putting on harnesses, jackets, etc. When in your pet's presence, he/she is my main priority and will have my focus and attention the entire time.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up around dogs and cats my whole life. I currently have two dogs of my own and am very comfortable with all types of personalities—from energetic pups to shy or reactive dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I have hands-on experience with reactive dogs and am very mindful of their body language, boundaries, and routines to help them feel safe and secure. I also cared for my senior dog Toni for 17 years, so I’m experienced with medication administration and providing attentive, gentle care for older pets. I truly enjoy building trust with animals and creating a calm, positive environment for them. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and will always follow your pet’s routine closely so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’d love to help with walks, drop-ins, or sitting and treat your pets like part of my own family! I’m a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a very flexible and consistent schedule throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting during both weekdays and weekends, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. Because I’m home-based, I’m able to be very attentive and stick closely to your pet’s routine, making sure they get timely walks, meals, and attention. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their own environment and routine. I’m very respectful of both your pet and your space, and I always aim to keep things calm, clean, and consistent while you’re away. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and individual needs, whether your pet is energetic, shy, or reactive. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific routines, so your pet feels safe and secure. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands.

Most bookings cost between $0 and $30 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 9,215 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Topsfield. 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 Topsfield 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 .

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 , 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 .

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.

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 , 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.
