About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have owned dogs since I was 8 years old. Growing up, I helped care for them every day, including walking, feeding, basic training, playtime, and making sure they stayed happy and active. Over the years, I've also cared for neighbors' and friends' dogs through drop-in visits, walks, feeding, overnight stays, and house sitting. What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like my own. I understand that each pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I make it a priority to provide attentive, loving care while keeping owners updated and giving them peace of mind. Whether your dog needs a long walk, extra playtime, companionship while you're away, or consistent care in their familiar environment, I'm committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care around my classes. I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and quality time with pets throughout the week, and I have even more availability on weekends. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am committed to providing reliable, attentive care and making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well looked after while their owners are away. I provide pets with the same care, attention, and love that I give my own. In a client's home, I follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions. I also make sure pets receive plenty of companionship and attention so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a safe, welcoming environment with lots of supervision and care. I also have a very friendly Chihuahua mix who enjoys the company of other dogs and can provide a great playmate and companion. My goal is to make sure every pet feels happy, safe, and well cared for, whether they're staying with me or I'm caring for them in their own home
“Thank you for taking care of our kitties last minute! They were at ease with such a calm personality. Followed instructions super well, gave them attention, and asked good questions! She made things easy. Very happy we went with her for cat care! Gave our cat his meds and fed them with care. ❤️”
“So far so very good! This is my first experience with a puppy and Paisley has provided valuable advice and has helped me so much. Paisley is extremely knowledgeable, caring and kind Leaving Charlotte for the day is difficult but knowing that Paisley will be dropping in puts my mind at ease. 100% recommend her!”
“Lilit is fantastic. We strongly recommend. She watched our senior cat while we were on vacation. She has amazing attention to detail and cares for your animals like they are part of her family too. We also enjoyed the pictures we received on every visit.”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life, including dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, and hamsters. I love animals and care deeply for them, I’d love to have the opportunity to care for others :) My mother is a veterinary assistant as well, so I have reliable access to someone knowledgeable about pets should the need arise. I’m currently a student at home so my schedule is pretty open! I’d prefer in home visits and house sitting, that way your furry friend can get to know me in a place where they are comfortable and happy :) I’m available most days and would be happy to go spend time with your pets! My pets are very particular about their schedules, so I’m used to them ruling the house haha. Dog usually goes out at three scheduled times (but more if necessary), once in the morning when we wake up, once in the afternoon, and once before bed. Let me know your feeding routine! Every pet is different, so let know how they prefer :)
“She was by far the best care taker we have used on rover. She took our drop in at the last minute and stayed the entire visit, was extremely attentive to the dogs, was clear with her communication and understanding our needs and did exactly as we asked. She even went above and beyond getting the dogs back in as they were being a little apprehensive about going back inside. Would HIGHLY recommend and will definitely be using again.”
About: Raised on a farm and a dog mom for 17 years, I’ve had animals at the center of my life since childhood. Caring for animals of all kinds is truly in my roots. I spent 13 years as a devoted dog mom to my late dachshund, Boston, and I now have a big, friendly rescue who has been by my side for 4 years. She’s a beautiful mix of Blue Tick Coonhound, American Foxhound, Lab, Bully, German Shepherd, and who knows what else, or as I like to call her, my Supermutt 🩷 Over the years, I’ve rescued dogs, cats, and other animals off the streets, and I’m constantly learning about animal health, behavior, and care so I’m prepared for any pet friend who comes into my home. Special skills: •Senior care: I’ve cared for two dogs into their senior years: my dachshund, Boston, and our family’s extra-large bully breed. I’m comfortable with older dogs, including slower walks, extra comfort, and medication schedules. I’m also comfortable administering injections if needed. •Anxious dogs and puppies: Boston was a very anxious pup, so I know how to help nervous dogs feel safe. I also have experience with puppies. •Training: I taught both of my dogs their basic commands, I’m currently taking a dog training course, and I plan to complete a pet CPR certification. •Dog-friendly home: My own dog is playful, loves to chill, and happily goes along with whatever her fur friends want. Availability: I’m available for drop-ins and walks in the evenings, and I can board low-maintenance dogs during the week since I work full time in an office Monday through Friday but I do take my own dog out in the mornings and again midday. My calendar on Rover will show is open Friday through Sunday and on holidays, but if you’re interested in weekday boarding, I’m happy to discuss it further. Friends, family, and neighbors have always turned to me when they need someone they can truly trust with their pets. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and genuine love. I’m present and engaged during my time at home, so your pet won’t just be waiting around they’ll be played with, walked, and genuinely cared for. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I have a partially fenced yard and a secure ground-anchored long lead for supervised outdoor time, so dogs can enjoy fresh air safely. I also live right next to a large park with trails, making it easy to get in enriching walks and outdoor adventures. My own dog Khaleesi is friendly and social with other dogs, so boarded pets will have a welcoming companion. I treat every animal in my care with the same love and attention I give my own, your pet will feel right at home.
About: I have been walking and caring for my own personal animals - 2 dogs, cat, bird, hamsters since I was 5 years old. I also have been dog sitting and walking for numerous neighbors and friends in the area. I work during the day a full-time job. I am available early in the morning and after 4:00pm during the week. I am available on the weekends anytime of the day. I have a fenced in backyard that my 4 year old Brittany Spaniel, Maggie loves to run around and play ball. It is completely fenced in so she can't get out. I love to be outside playing with my dog and bring her on 3+ walks a day around town and at the local park.
“Alissa was awesome! She was kind, communicated clearly throughout the process, and did a great job with our very anxious pup. We're so grateful that she was able to take care of him while we were gone, and I would definitely recommend her!”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and I’m especially drawn to shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and enjoy earning an animal’s trust through kindness, affection, and consistency. I’m comfortable walking, bathing, brushing and grooming pets, and animals in my care are treated like family and welcome throughout my home. I’m also very comfortable with senior pets and understand that they may need a slower pace, extra attention, and lots of reassurance. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I love spending time with them, whether we’re walking, playing, relaxing together, or just keeping each other company. I’m happy to give each pet the time and attention they need and will follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I can he as active as you want me to be, including hiking, going to parks, anywhere you like! I can also stay at home if your dog has low energy or special needs. Pets are welcome throughout my home and are treated like part of the family. I especially enjoy caring for shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and give them the time and space they need to feel safe and learn to trust me. I’m comfortable walking dogs and helping with bathing and basic grooming, and I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, routines, and house rules. I do have a fenced yard and would never leave them alone.
“Kaylee has just finished a week of visits to take care of my two cats. This is her second stint for me. Very happy at the attention to detail. She even left food for the squirrels! (if I forget they find the bag themselves!) Thank you Kaylee above and beyond.”
“This is our first time using the Rover app and Kimberly’s service. We needed a dog sitter for our two dogs during our daughter’s wedding weekend. Kimberly checked in every visit with an update and photos. When we arrived home after the long weekend, the dogs were so calm and happy! Thank you!”
“Georgiana did a wonderful job with our girls. She also took care of the house, mail etc. She communicated with us frequently and sent photos. She was easy to work with and we will definitely call her if we go on another trip.”

Erin was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my cat, Tinky, and my elderly Chihuahua, Sasha, for five days while I was away in Puerto Rico. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. She was incredibly kind, patient, and gentle with Sasha, making sure my senior pup was comfortable and well cared for. She also handled Tinky's persistent attempts to convince her to let him outside with so much patience and good humor! Eryn went above and beyond, and it was clear she genuinely cared about both of my pets. I came home to two happy, well-loved animals, and I couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly recommend Eryn to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable. Thank you so much, Eryn! We will hope to use her again and again .

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Athol Junction is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $36 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 November 2026, there are 1,780 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Athol Junction. 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
