About: I have been taking care of pets since I was seven years old. I’m very used to caring for family and friends pets. I’ve been relied on to ensure the furry ones get loved, walked, fed, bathed and played with! I’m currently working part-time nights , so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups until 3pm! I'm available every day except Sundays. I’m very flexible! I have a small unfenced yard so I won’t be doing a ton of hosting but when I do… I have a fur baby to keep your pet company. I am able to go on frequent long walks. I’m always up for it rain, snow or shine!
About: Having grown up around a diverse set of animals then adopting 2 dogs of my own in adulthood, I bring a thorough, well rounded background in pet care. I am single dad (kids live here part-time) who currently works a corporate 9-5 job full-time from my home office in Leominster, so I have a lot of flexibility during the work days during the week, and then my weekends are very open too around kids activities. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex within a wooded area with land so this gives a good environment for comfortable interior space as well as walking pets outside.
“Kellee did a fantastic job with our kitties. Followed the feeding instructions. They can be difficult since one of our kitties is 19. She went over and above and brought in our mail. We will hire her again.”

About: I’m a very responsible and loving pet owner. Have rescued many pets and now have found myself with some free time and would love to help new pets and people! With notice, I am completely free on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays & Sundays. (Monday, Tuesday & Friday I can be available for a few hours in the am) I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to play and a kiddie pool to cool off in! I have three very friendly doggos myself but plenty of space so they can be kept separate if you desire.
“Theresa was an excellent find on Rover. I was very nervous to have someone I didn’t know come watch my pets. During the meet and greet my fears washed away and I was able to enjoy a family vacation knowing my pets were in good hands. I received daily updates on not only my pets but on the house as well, such as a power outage and toppled houseplants. Theresa made me feel like everything was under control so I didn’t worry one bit! I would definitely hire her for my next vacation! Thanks for all you do ?”

About: I have grown up in a house with multiple dogs and cats, so I am extremely comfortable working with pets as being with them is all I have ever known. I participate in the Dog for a Day program at ACCT Philly, so I have experience in taking shelter dogs out for the day. I love taking my own dog on different adventures. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I have experience caring for timid rescues, energetic dogs, and dogs that have special needs such as medicine. I have experience caring for dogs both overnight and during the day. I am offering in home check ins/overnights, house sitting, and walking services. I can’t wait to get to know your furry friends!

I have done this with other dogs I have cared for and would love to do so with yours! I am used to doing some athletic activity with my dog at least once a day. As I have grown up with animals, I am familiar with body language and how to keep a house pet-safe. I am open to specific needs for your pet such as medicine, particular food, allergies, crate training, etc. Your pet will be cared for the same way I care for my own!
About: I have had dogs and cats, and also a horse for most of my life! My current dog is a 10 year old rescue from Tennessee, and he’s the love of my life. I’ve worked very hard with a trainer with my pup, so I have some experience there. I volunteered at the humane society and ASPCA for many years off and on, and I also fostered dogs throughout college. Safe to say I have plenty of hands on experience with all sorts of pets :). I am working full time, but I have a somewhat flexible schedule! I have plenty of time throughout the day to spend some time with whatever pet needs the attention! In my home, my dog is pretty spoiled :). He is my main priority, as it is just him and myself, and it’s been that way for years! As far as other people’s pets in their home, I will follow any instructions in detail that are provided, but above all I will make sure the pet is happy and healthy and comfortable!
About: I’ve owned pets since my daughter was young and brought her first kitten home. I’ve been helping her to walk dogs for a couple years now. I’m retired so my schedule is fairly open. It gets me walking and outside, two things I enjoy. It helps my health and makes me feel good. Happy to walk your dog! Cannot have pets stay at my house as I have a kitty cat of my own. His name is Toby and he’s a real pain in the butt! 😂
About: Hello, my name is Melanie! I recently quit my job to focus on school and am looking to get back into pet care! I've grown up with a bunch of pets from dogs, and cats to more exotic animals like reptiles, ferrets, and birds. I've also worked at a pet store for 5 years, as well as my fair share of family and friends pet sitter. I currently go to school full time, and spend the rest of the time studying with my pets! In our house we have a schedule and take turns when it comes to feedings, bathroom needs, and everything in between! Personally, I own one dog myself, Kira and she likes to spend all of her time outdoors, and is a snuggle bug. Kira also eats a very specific diet as she has allergies and takes supplements. I live in a house everyone is extremely welcoming to all pets and offers a vast fenced space for playing, although I prefer to not host, pets myself. I also have training experience and focus on positive reinforcement and leash training! I'm currently in school, so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pups. I'm available weekdays. Weekends are usually open. Mondays- Anytime Tuesdays- Before 10am and After 5pm Wednesdays- Before 1:30pm and After 5pm Thursdays- before 10am and After 2pm Fridays- Before 10am and After 5pm (This will change middle of May 2026) I'm very good at following instructions and asking for clarification if needed. I always use single ingredient treats that are usually allergy friendly (lamb liver). I pride myself on being safe and respectful to everyone!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ashburnham stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Ashburnham 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Ashburnham with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
