“Words cannot adequately capture how superb James was. I had so much anxiety leaving my babies to take a vacation, but it’s clear I had nothing to worry about with James. He was kind, caring, and attentive to the intricacies of managing my four pets. I’ve had a lot of people pet sit in the past, including friends and family, but nobody has done it better than James. I cannot recommend him highly enough!”

“Amy truly went above and beyond for our dog, Finn. He can be a little shy at first and she took the time to gain his trust and meet him where he was at. She was very communicative and kept us in the loop about everything. I felt comfortable knowing that my dog was in good hands and will happily have Amy come for future visits.”

About: I grew up with big dogs and many cats and have a lot of experience with them! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and play with their pets while they are out of town or if they are behind on time. I am an animal lover and would love to keep your pet company while you’re away. I currently work full time so my schedule varies weekly! I would’ve to hep get your pups outside when I get home from work or before depending on my shift. Please reach out to coordinate! Not only will I walk you dog but I’ll make sure to give them lots of love and more than just a bathroom break! I’ll make sure to get the energy they’ve been saving all day out.

About: I have lived with dogs and cats my entire life and have owned my sweet (sensitive) Pitt bull mix for 10 years. I have lots of experience caring for my own dog and the pets of friends and family. I am great with temperamental/needy animals as well as high energy dogs - happy to take long walks or simply feed and play with a cat! I am self employed and create my own schedule, except for 2 nights a week when I have an evening shift at a restaurant. My routine during the day is often flexible and open. I can make a lot of different schedules fit, depending on the day or week! I care deeply for animals and want them to be cared for, safe, and comfortable. I know from experience that routine and attention are really important for our pets, and feel a great sense of responsibility as a pet care provider.

About: I had the honor of having pets my whole life... dogs and cats. From a very young age my mother was always rescuing cats and dogs. They were an extension of our family. The seed was planted early and has only grown into a passion, training and caring for pets. I am currently available for providing in home pet care. I have a very flexible schedule. Available for staying over so your pet(s) can be comfortable in their own home and drop in visits/walks. I am a massage therapist and I don't work long hours so it allows for flexibility. At this time I don't have the space to host your pets. My roommates cats would not be to happy with that. I can travel to your home.

About: I’ve grown up with as many pets as you can imagine (cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, frogs, hermit crabs, etc). I have an immense love for all animals and have been lucky enough to recently adopt a sweet and cuddly puppy with my boyfriend Jack. I have always lot of experience looking after pets of all shapes and sizes (from bunnies to dogs and cats), and have been a pet sitter for friends and family for as long as I can remember. I will love your furry companion like my own pet! Booking a session with me means your pet will get all the cuddles and walkies and attention their heart desires :) I am currently in dental school so my week day schedule is pretty busy as I am seeing patients 8am-5pm during the week. However, my Friday, Saturday and Sunday availability is much more flexible as I am often home relaxing with my own puppy and taking him on walks! If you’re looking for a weekend sitter or some more physical exercise for your furry friend on the weekends, I’m your gal :) I do not have a fenced in yard but the townhouse style apartment I live in has a private entrance making potty breaks a breeze as well as a dog park located right in the complex! It is usually empty so if you’re okay with it, our pups could go run and play together! My boyfriend Jack and I absolutely love animals and especially dogs and are so excited to meet your companion :))

About: I have many years of experience caring for both dogs and cats for friends and clients. I have also fostered a dog for a span of a couple weeks. Although I don't currently have any pets of my own, I therefore have plenty of love and attention to give to every animal I care for. I enjoy keeping pets active with walks and outdoor play, spending quality time with them indoors, maintaining a clean environment, and, of course, rewarding them with treats when appropriate. I am a calm, dependable, and positive person who values routine and consistency. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away :) I love routine and live by my planner to stay organized. I enjoy haveing animals apart of that rontine as well, while also understanding that every pet has unique needs and that some require more time and attention than others. I consistently have Wednesdays and Thursdays free all day. I'm also available for early morning visits and evening appointments, allowing me to provide flexible and dependable care. Your pet's safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every dog and cat has different needs, and I adjust my care to match their energy level, preferences, and routine. When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your pets and your home with the utmost respect. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, keep water bowls full, clean up after pets, and make sure they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, companionship, and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

“I love vacationing but I HATE leaving my cats home alone as they’re both rescues and I’m scared of them feeling abandoned. Sarah somehow managed to get my extremely shy and skiddish cat to come out for pictures, so essentially, she works magic. I came home to two happy cats and felt better about leaving them knowing Sarah took such good care of them!”

About: I have been a loving dog owner since I was born and the type of person you will always find petting various animals. I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was nearly 10 years old and love every minute of it! I currently work three long days a week at the hospital, which are different each week, which, for the most part means I’m only available for your animals on my days off. Special exceptions may be worked out during overnight stays where I have time before and after work. On the plus side, my days off are very flexible! As per your preferences and the animal’s specificities, I would make sure to keep up their daily routines as well as keep them fed, watered, clean, and happy!

About: I am a responsible, reliable, hard-working, and deeply caring person with a love for pets and animals! I grew up taking care of the family dog, adopted and trained my German Sheperd mix, and now have a puppy I am training. I also currently have 4 lovely cats. 🙂 I will listen to all my client's requests and specific needs for taking care of their beloved pet(s)! I am always attentive to the pets that are within my care. I understand that each pet has their own specific needs and quirks. A pawsitive experience for the animal and their owner is my top priority. I also am very attentive to certain training your pup may be practicing while they are in my care, if requested. :) I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I also sometimes work part time from home, which means I am more available to keep an eye on your pets needs. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I love to take doggos on field trips too! So the combo means your pup gets lot of exercise, socializing, adventure and exploring! Our field trips are usually to a local trail, averaging about 1.5 to 2 miles. I also always have treats on hand for the pups.

We know our 2 Corgi boys are safe and happy with Aphtyn. She is a 5-star sitter, who keeps us updated with pictures and reports. It's so comforting to know that we will return to two happy, healthy and relaxed dogs who have received the best care possible.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Yarmouth

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Yarmouth is $29 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $35 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 October 2026, there are 953 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Yarmouth. 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.

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 Yarmouth. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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.

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.

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.
