About: Hi there! I have been a pet sitter since I was 14, with multi-species experience including: dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, fish, turtles, and rabbits. I am a life long pet owner as well. I am in my 4th year of studying Animal Behavior, which feeds my interest in enrichment and proper welfare for all animals. I have experience with: • oral medication administration • pets with anxiety • grooming and nail trimming (*depends on your pet's temperament) • enrichment I am available for drop-in visits, walks, or pet-sittings. ***I do not offer boarding due to my own pet for the safety of all pets involved! I'm currently on break for the summer and have full availability during the week to stop in and take your pet for a walk or play session, or house sit for a longer period. I tend to stick to the instructions provided as to keep a normal routine for your pet. For a first time visit, I will get aquatinted with your pet and offer a treat if allowed. I will send photos of your pet when I arrive and leave to offer some peace of mind. For walks, I will take your dog on a stroll around the neighborhood so they can let out some energy and use the restroom, followed by a treat after returning home. Drop-ins are similar where the pet will be taken outside for the restroom if needed and have some playtime to let out some energy. For pet sitting jobs, I tend to ask more questions about your pet to get a better understanding of their needs as well as anything else that will need taken care of such as collecting the mail, or watering plants. No matter the species, each visit will include playing, treats, and lots of pets! When entering or leaving your home, I ensure that the key is placed in the correct spot (to prevent lockouts!) after locking to keep your pet and home safe.

We have three rescued dogs each with their little quirks and they can be a lot of work but a lot of fun. They love Lori. How great is that? All we want is the dogs to be safe and have a good time with their house sitter and with Lori we/they get both. Highly recommend her. She is wonderful and the dogs miss her when she leaves.

It was such a relief to have Aidan caring for my dogs at my house while I was gone on my 8 day vacation. My pups are 14 and 11 years old and have special dietary and medical needs and he was able to keep them well fed, medicated and happy! This was the first time in their whole lives that I didn't have friends or family available to watch them, but I didn't have to worry as Aidan sent pictures and kept me up to date on how things were going. If I am in this situation again Aidan will be the first person I reach out to!

Decided to try Samm because of repeated requests. I was hesitant to let someone stay in our home while we were gone. But when I met Sam she made us feel very comfortable and our dogs loved her. We are glad we made a new friend with Samm. She stayed here for 3 nights. Very pleasant to work with and very accommodating. Gave us daily up dates with photos. Highly recommend and we will use her again. Thanks Samm!!

Michelle did a great job with our pups! She was responsive and kept us updated on how they were doing. She was extremely respectful of our home! If it weren't for the rumpled sheets, she wouldn't have even known she was there! Highly recommend her for house sitting and any care your pups could need!

About: I have taken care of dogs since i was 12 i've dealt with all different breeds, sizes, and personalities. i'm comfortable with pretty much anything when it comes down to feeding, walking, playtime and basic care. I make sure all pets feel safe and loved while there owners are away for long periods of time. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they are happy, comfortable and well cared for. :) i currently work a part time job at a daycare with children while i finish up school. i'm always available on weekends and weekdays after six. When caring for your fur babies I make sure to follow simple instructions such as feeding them accordingly, refill fresh water regularly, take your fur babies out for walks and bathroom breaks, clean their cages/litter box's or any accidents they might have. I also make sure to spend time playing with them and keeping them company. Another thing i'll add in here is that i'll make sure the home is tidy and secure such as locking doors and windows and bringing in the mail if needed. :)

Patience was the absolute best while watching my two dogs! She sent several updates throughout the day with videos and photos of the doggies without me even asking and I truly felt like comfortable having her in the home with them! I will definitely be using Patience again and recommend others to use her services as well!!

Amanda was great with our three Husky’s. They are all blowing their coats and she did a great job keeping up with the flying fur. Our dogs were so calm and relaxed when we got home, she did a great job of keeping me updated and I didn’t have to worry about whether or not they were well cared for during our vacation!

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every dog. I treat each pet like they're my own, taking the time to learn their routine, personality, and needs so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I'm reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each stay. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, dependable hands. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I have a cat at my parents I have my own place. Every day I make time for feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and making sure my cat is happy and comfortable. Because caring for pets is already part of my schedule, it's easy for me to provide reliable, consistent care for your pet as well. I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, stick to their normal routine, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention and care. I always follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines to help your pet feel as comfortable as possible. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, so I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, ensuring you have peace of mind while you're away.

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience in pet care, I’ve had the joy of looking after a wide variety of animals, from playful puppies and independent cats to curious rabbits. My approach is always tailored to each pet’s unique needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding schedules, administering medication, or simply providing companionship, I bring dedication and a genuine passion for animal welfare to every job. This extensive experience has taught me how to handle different temperaments and health requirements, making me a reliable and compassionate pet sitter for any furry friend. I am available on weekends, as well as all day Monday, and on Wednesday and Friday evenings. Willing to stay with you pets for the whole weekend or pop in on those days i’m free! There is a fenced yard at my parents' home with five dogs, and I often play ball with them outside. I also have a fenced yard at my place for my 2-year-old Mini Aussie, where we enjoy playing outdoors as well. He has two full toy baskets and bark boxes every month! He is very loved (spoiled) :)!

About: I absolutely love animals and caring for them! I grew up with 2 dogs and now have 2 cats a dog and an African Grey bird. I’ve been dog sitting for years. I take pride in giving pups the best vacation of their little lives🥰 During the summer I have a very open schedule which makes it easy for me to dog sit or dog walk anytime of the day. I do go on vacation a couple times but usually not for very long, I also have a part-time job at the moment which helps for a flexible schedule to help people and their pets! I am very attentive and loving towards my pets and others I have had in my care. I love being outside and playing with dogs, as well as being responsible for their needs and what the pet owner expects of me.

About: I have been helping my neighbors with their pets since I was a teenager and I've had two dogs of my own since I was 5. For the past 3 years, I've been working as a professional pet sitter and house sitter. I understand the importance of giving animals the love they deserve. I also make sure to follow their potty and feeding routines to keep them comfortable and happy. You can rely on me to take great care of your pets while you're away, providing you with peace of mind. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, allowing me to provide dedicated attention to your furry companions! I love my morning walks and being able to take a pup with me is a treat for me! Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule as I have lived with animals my whole life! It’s second nature. When I provide overnight stays at the client's home, I ensure that their pets receive attentive and comprehensive care. This includes feeding them according to their regular schedule, providing fresh water, and administering any necessary medications. I make it a priority to create a comfortable and safe environment for the pets, maintaining a clean living space and adhering to any specific instructions or routines provided by the owner. I am dedicated to giving them plenty of love, attention, and playtime to keep them happy and engaged. During drop-in visits, I focus on meeting the specific needs of the pets. This typically involves feeding them, refreshing their water, and taking them out for potty breaks. I make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding their feeding and bathroom routines, ensuring their comfort and well-being. Additionally, I am attentive to their emotional needs, offering cuddles and playtime. When it comes to dog walking, I prioritize the physical exercise and mental stimulation of the dogs. I tailor the walks to their individual energy levels and exercise requirements, providing them with an enjoyable and enriching experience. Safety is paramount, so I use appropriate leashes and ensure that the dogs are secure and under control at all times. I also pay attention to their behavior and monitor their well-being throughout the walk. Overall, my approach to pet care is personalized, attentive, and adaptable to the unique needs of each client and their beloved pets.

FAQs for House Sitting - Windham

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for House Sitting in Windham on Rover is $22.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 653 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Windham. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Windham walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Windham maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

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 Windham 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!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

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.

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

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
